Jersey City, NJ — In a chilling display of symbolic provocation, an Islamic Shia procession held recently along the Hudson waterfront has sparked alarm after footage emerged showing participants deliberately zooming in on the World Trade Center, a calculated move many experts believe was designed to send a message of dominance and historical revenge.
What initially appeared to be a routine Muharram procession, commemorating the Islamic Battle of Karbala, quickly took a darker turn. As Islamic flags waved and chants echoed through the streets of Jersey City, a camera operator from the event turned their lens toward Manhattan. The focus? One World Trade Center — the gleaming monument built to replace the Twin Towers destroyed on September 11, 2001.
But this was no accidental shot.
The camera lingered. It framed the tower deliberately. It zoomed. It fixated, not randomly, but intentionally, signaling something far more sinister than religious expression.
The choice of Jersey City as the site of this imagery is itself historically loaded. It was in this very location that, according to multiple accounts, individuals were seen celebrating as the Twin Towers burned on 9/11. Now, decades later, the same skyline becomes the backdrop for an unsettling reenactment — not of grief, but of ideological assertion.

Islamic Procession Zooms in on World Trade Center – A Deliberate Symbol of Conquest
In the streets of New Jersey, Islamic flags waved, chants echoed, and a Shia procession marched in the name of Karbala.
But here’s what you weren’t supposed to notice:

Historical Blueprint: Islamic Symbolism and the Seizure of Sacred Sites
This kind of messaging is not new. In fact, it fits into a long tradition of Islamic triumphalism — the practice of claiming or converting iconic religious and political structures of conquered peoples into visible symbols of Islamic dominance.
Consider the pattern:
- The Great Mosque of Córdoba was built atop a Visigothic Christian church after the Muslim conquest of Spain. It later became a symbol of Andalusian Islamic rule.
- Hagia Sophia, once the centerpiece of Eastern Orthodox Christianity, was transformed into a mosque following the Ottoman conquest of Constantinople in 1453 — a conquest hailed to this day in Islamic literature as the fall of Christian power in the East.
- The Umayyad Mosque in Damascus was erected on the site of a church dedicated to St. John the Baptist. The saint’s relics were appropriated and still reside within the mosque.
- Jerusalem’s Temple Mount, the holiest site in Judaism, is controlled by Islamic authorities. Jews are forbidden to pray there, while two major Islamic monuments — the Dome of the Rock and Al-Aqsa Mosque — stand as enduring declarations of Muslim rule.
- And let us not forget the attempted “Cordoba House” project — a proposed Islamic center and mosque near Ground Zero in New York. Its very name was a brazen signal. Cordoba was no random city — it was a direct allusion to the Islamic conquest of Christian Spain.
A Modern Siege, One Frame at a Time
Seen through this historical lens, the footage from Jersey City should be interpreted as more than a moment of cultural pride or religious observance. It was a coded message, sent across the river and across time:
We are still here. We remember. We return.
The flags, the chants, and most importantly, the camera’s lingering gaze upon the World Trade Center are all part of what many are now calling a “soft jihad” — a nonviolent but deliberate assertion of ideological dominance. Not with bombs, but with symbolism. Not through force, but through infiltration of narrative, geography, and national memory.
This is psychological warfare. A visual siege.
And tragically, it may be effective — because the West, paralyzed by its own obsession with tolerance and inclusivity, refuses to call it what it is.
While the media praises such processions as multicultural celebrations and authorities look the other way, those paying attention recognize the more profound significance. The battle isn’t only on foreign soil anymore. It’s cultural, spiritual, and increasingly visual — unfolding right here on American streets, with the skyline of Lower Manhattan as the new battleground.
The Message Is Clear — Are We Listening?
The deliberate act of filming the World Trade Center during an Islamic religious procession is not a benign coincidence. It is a symbolic act of psychological assertion — one deeply rooted in centuries of conquest and humiliation of non-Muslim societies.
This is not about freedom of religion. This is about domination through imagery.
It is time to stop pretending otherwise. It is time to ask: How many more mosques will be built on our ashes, how many more monuments re-appropriated, how many more “messages” sent before we confront this for what it is?
America is not immune to the historical pattern of conquest through symbolism. What we saw in Jersey City is a warning. Whether we choose to hear it is up to us.
