Political Islam is Dangerous to the West

David Bukay has an article in the Summer 2009 edition of the Middle East Quarterly.

Bukay takes an intellectual stroll with the end game being Islam is totally incompatible with Western Society. Then Bukay turns up the burner by demonstrating that Islam is in no way compatible with the Western concept of Democracy.

Bukay even pits the differences between Islam (so-called moderate) and Islamism. Bukay points out that Islam is becoming the uniting force at least among Middle Eastern Muslims to the extent that the very old concept of Pan-Arabism is nearly a dead ideology.

Muslims are finding there heroes among the Islamists that promote an international Caliphate for Islam. The Caliphate ideal is a concept that stretches beyond the Arab Middle East. Thus Islamism is gaining footholds in place like Turkey founded after the ashes of the collapse of the Ottoman Empire at the end of WWI. Ataturk purposely founded a Turkish secular government abolish the vestiges of the Caliphate that existed in the defunct Ottoman Empire.

The largest Muslim nation in the world is Indonesia. The pan-Islam ideology is awakening Indonesians who Asian rather than Arab to bump against the secular regime in Indonesia.

Bukay further notes that nations where old fashioned despots are the leadership predominantly only do so because the military backs the despot. He sites Saudi Arabia and Egypt to name a few which would have succumb to Islamism long ago if it were not for the power of military might.

Something you should think about after reading Bukay’s analysis. It has been said that the percentage of Islamists in the world represents 10% of global Islam. Let’s say that as of 2009 there are 2.4 BILLION Muslims globally. Ten percent would be 240 MILLION Islamists world wide.

Now that 240 MILLION is a huge chunk of people. Now imagine this: according to my interpretation of Dr. Bukay’s article; that would mean there 2.16 BILLION Muslims who predominantly look up to the agenda to activist Islamists.

Purist Islam is More than a Religion

Awesome anti-radical Islamic organizations like Move America Forward and sister organizations like American Congress for Truth and ACT! For America as well as many other organizations and people comprehend the truth about Islam.

This comprehension has led to a clarion call to rightly keep Gitmo open as an Islamic-terrorist prison open.

Mohammedans obviously wants Gitmo closed and Islamic terrorists freed.

Deluded Leftists want Gitmo closed due to well meaning altruism and the belief that all human beings regardless of inherent evil deserve equal rights of protection under the law. The equal rights thing is a lofty goal; however I believe all ideologies and religions that actively practice and/or incite their disciples into non-State acts of war or acts of terrorism against innocent civilians or governments protecting those citizens have made the decision to revoke civil rights.

Many of these anti-close Gitmo organizations and people are trying to alert American citizens that radical Islam has embraced America’s prisons. The meaning of which convicts in American prisons are turning to the radical Islam espoused by Saudi Wahhabists and Salafist Mohammedan terrorists. After these convicts are released from prison they take their acquired Theo-political ideology with them and either join terrorist cells or act alone against the American rule of law.

Steven Emerson is one individual that takes this hotbed of Islamic radicalism in American prisons to point out the foolishness of sending Gitmo inmates to those prisons. It is viewed that these Gitmo inmates will be viewed as soldiers of Allah available to strengthen radical Islam permeating American prisons.

The Theo-political Islam being taught and practiced in America must stop! Many would argue that the deification of the Quran and lesser Mohammedan revered books is part and parcel to today’s radical Islam. I know there are Mohammedans that believe they are above the barbarity propagated in the Quran and other writings and consider themselves good Muslims. However I tend to agree with the train of thought that good Mohammedans are those that follow the “fundamental” teachings of those texts. In essence those labeled as radical Islamists are in reality purist Mohammedans after the order of the prophet-dude that founded this Theo-political empire-building death cult.

American-Mohammedans that promote the purist form of Islam are thus advocating the overthrow of the American government and American Liberty that Leftists believe they are protecting.

Do not believe for a moment that the radical Islam (advocators of death and destruction) is a religion after the manner of most religions looking for inner peace in one form or another. The only inner peace offered by Mohammed’s religion is to totally submit to the will to the carnality inherent in Islam. One of the primary enticements to fight for Islam is to die a martyr and enjoy the raw sex offered in the Mohammedan Paradise. This enticement led to conquering Mohammedan hoards slaughtering non-Muslims in the quest to spread the Islamic cancer by violence and/or degrading humiliation.

This is the purist Islam. This is the Islam of Islamic terrorists. This is the Islam of Wahhabi, of Salafi and of Twelver Shi’ites.

Islam: Religion or Ideology

If you have been reading my posts on Islam/Mohammedanism you may be aware I have been working out a stand concerning the religion founded by Mohammed (e.g. Here and Here).

The decision is between banning Mohammedanism in America or considering Mohammedanism a religion protected by Free of Religion and Free Speech ala the First Amendment of the U.S. Constitution.

Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the government for a redress of grievances. (Cornell University Law School)

There are three points that need to be examined pertaining to Islam:

1. Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion.

2. (Congress shall make no law) prohibiting the free exercise thereof (i.e. religion).

3. (Congress shall make no law) abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press.

A few other points could well be addressed pertaining to Islam however without an understanding of these three points the later is irrelevant or relevant depending on the conclusions of those points.

The first point about the Law and the establishment of religion is one of my pet peeves because Leftists over the last sixty years or so have extrapolated ex nihilo that this means a wall of separation exists between the government (Federal, State and Local) and religion.

This extrapolation has zero to do with the Constitution or with those attributed to reasoning out the meaning of the Constitution in the Federalist Papers. Rather it comes from a letter (A LETTER!) to the Danbury Baptists in which President Jefferson trying to calm the fears of Baptists about the traditional concept of Christian nations establishing a State Church.

Baptists had never been privy in any nation as a State Church. In those days part of taxation was to support the State Church. Many of the Thirteen Colonies and then the Thirteen States of the United States of America initially had State Churches on the State level.

Saying all this, the majority of America’s ruling elite from the Revolutionary War days considered the rule of law and morality based on Christian principles. My conclusion (though admittedly an opinion) is that the First Amendment did not prohibit religion from being involved in the State; rather it prohibited the State from being involved in religion. The religions of the day were the varieties of Christianity in the new USA with a smattering of Judaism. The Courts of the day would not even consider extrapolating ex nihilo a law prohibiting the involvement of religion in the government apparatus.

The second point is that Congress shall make NO laws prohibiting the free exercise of religion. This opened the door for religions other than Christianity to practice freely in principle; however you have to be aware the populace in the late 1700’s and early 1800’s would look with prejudice upon a non-Christian religion such as Islam/Mohammedanism. Nonetheless the letter of the law in the Constitution is very concrete. The specific word “religion” was used rather something such as the “religion of our Lord Jesus Christ.” Although Christianity would have been considered the faith of America in post Revolutionary War days, an extrapolation of diverse religious worship is free to occur.

An uncorrupt Court would have to rule to prevent public or private harassment of non-Christian religions in America because Congress can make NO law prohibiting the free exercise of religion.

There are over a billion people who consider Mohammedanism a religion. At this point one has to realize my quandary about banning Mohammedanism. I’ll back to this thought in a moment.

The third point is that Congress shall make no law abridging the freedom of speech or the press. This takes care of America’s atheists who choose to live by a philosophy, philosophical principle or merely not care about the existence of religion/deity one way or the other. It is the freedom of conscience without fear of retribution.

Even today ideologies such as Communism or Nazism are allowed freedom of expression in America as long as the expression does not lead to breaking the law via murder, assault, theft, incitement to riot disturbing the public welfare and so on.

Thus today fringe Leftist and fringe Rightist groups test how close they can get to the line of the rule of law without crossing it. Prosecution followed Communists in what was known as the McCarthy Era and today White Supremacists are prosecuted for arms violations and the breaking of other citizens’ civil rights.

It is the THIRD POINT I believe that Mohammedanism crosses the line.

Mohammedanism as a religion simply has too many tenets in their revered books or traditions that cross the line of the rule of law according to the American Constitution. Mohammedanism is a warrior religion that its revered books call to establish the ideological-religion globally first by peace. If peace does not work then war is forced on unbelievers of Mohammedanism until there is Mohammedan conversion or submission to second class citizenship forced to not do anything anti-Islamic or death in a heinous way.

So even though there is a theological nature of otherworldliness to Mohammedanism, the political nature of Mohammedanism in practice in this world tends toward an ideology of political world domination. This world domination mentality has the ferocity inspired by Adolf Hitler’s Nazis on the German population of a superior race. In the same way the German Nazis sought to exterminate human beings (not just Jews) considered as subhuman as not worthy of life. Those outside the Nazi vision of the Germanic Aryan nation not deemed subhuman would be second class citizens serving the Nazi German State.

The Mohammedan ideology of the days of Mohammed in which one can label as radical Islam today is really a Reformation movement on the scale that Protestantism was a movement to reform the Catholic Church to a return of the perception of the Early Church and Patristic Church.

Ali Sina has an awesome essay that points out that “reform” is a movement to go back to the way it was rather than a transformation to another a better way of thinking. The appellation of “Progressive” Churches is a case in point. Progressive Churches are not reforming Christianity; rather they are inserting Leftist humanism to eliminate what is perceived as archaic and of no value in today’s society.

Ali Sina thus stipulates Mohammedanism is not able to be reformed. If there is any reformation occurring in Mohammedanism it is the ideology of the Muslim Brotherhood, Wahhabi and Shi’ite aims to bring Mohammedanism back to a closer vision of the Prophet Mohammed.

The implication is that Mohammedanism would have progressive thinking added to it to bring it back to a religion that is otherworldly seeking inner peace in this life and the life to come. For this to happen a progressive Mohammedanism would have to deny Mohammed’s revelation from Allah pertaining to convert or die, sex slavery, honor killing and intolerance of everything non-Islamic.

Part of Sina’s point is to not trust Mohammedans that claim to be reform minded. Sina does not specifically point to a website called Muslims Against Sharia but implies that one should not trust Muslims who say they wish to reform Islam. The link for Muslims Against Sharia does not have its name in it, rather the link is http://www.reformislam.org/.

Sina implies there is a religion that is a progressive version of Mohammedanism. That religion is known as Bahá’í.

The Bahá'í's believe in an essential unity of the great religions of the world. However, this does not mean they believe the various religious creeds and doctrines are identical. Rather, they view all religions as having sprung from the same spiritual source. The social and outer forms of different religions vary due to the circumstances at the time that they were founded. Other differences in doctrine and belief can be attributed to later accretions, after the death of the founder.

…

Bahá'í beliefs promoted major social changes when they were first circulated in the 19th century: they supported gender and race equality; world government; freedom of expression and assembly; world peace; religious tolerance, and religious cooperation. In many ways, they were a century or more ahead of many other faiths. Their followers are heavily involved in promoting these concepts today. Also, unlike many other religions, Bahá'ís view scientific inquiry as essential to expand human knowledge and to deepen their members' faith. They feel that science needs to be guided by spiritual principles so that its applications are beneficial to all humanity. (Excerpted from Bahá'í Faith: Beliefs and Practices)

I have come around to the conclusion that if Mohammedanism wishes to evolve into a true religion of peace (Note as a Christian I did not say the true religion) then Muslims would embrace Baha’ism which is an actual root from Mohammedanism.

So now I am pretty much in the “Ban Islam” crowd even though it is not completely etched into stone in my thoughts. It is entirely reasonable to view Mohammedanism as a Theo-Political cult with the emphasis on political ideology. The inherent political ideology of Islam definitely crosses the line of American Constitutionalism and the rule of law to protect citizens from harm.

Thus to ban Islam could be viewed as terminating an ideology which would harm the Constitution of the United States of America.

Dr. Wafa Sultan is Awesome

I was perusing my latest Faith Freedom International (FFI) e-newsletter showing recent posts to that website. I noticed a link that honored Dr. Wafa Sultan who is an ex-Muslim gal from Syria who has done what many anti-Islam males fear to tread. Sultan has gone into the heart of the devil’s media lair such as Al-Jazeera and verbally slapped Islamic clerics into fits of anger. Evidently when confronted with the truth of Islam the measured response of a typical Muslim cleric is not to provide a reasoned response. Rather the cleric goes into fits castigating Sultan’s integrity and eventually issuing a fatwa that threatens Sultan’s life.

This makes Sultan special!

Anyway the FFI post honoring Dr. Wafa Sultan is entitled, “Honoring Wafa Sultan (Video).” There are a huge amount of Dr. Sultan videos explaining the evils of Islam/Mohammedanism. I encourage everyone to go there to receive mini-lessons on the reality of the Theo-Political ideology known as Islam which I prefer to call after its founder Mohammedanism.

To comprehend how brave Dr. Sultan actually is here is a post from the American Congress for Truth pertaining to her sheer courage:

“Bold ex-Muslim threatened by top sheik”: Brava to Wafa Sultan

Comment by: Jerry Gordon
3/26/08

Dr. Wafa Sultan is “a national and international treasure” says our colleague Bob Spencer of Jihad Watch in a FrontPageArticle about her electrifying second al-Jazeerah interview on March 4th. Spencer rightfully asks why our government isn’t protecting her against Fatwas issued by Islamist clerics around the Muslim ummah seeking her death. She is unafraid to beard the Lion in its den - Islam - by going on Al Jazeera and speaking truth to power enraging fulminating sputtering Islamist clerics to the point of issuing Fatwas for her death as they did following her amazing first interview on Al Jazeera in February, 2006. Time Magazine named her one of the 100 Most Influential persons in its annual 2006 listing.

Brigitte Gabriel and I had the opportunity to meet with Dr. Sultan at the Secular Islam Summit in St. Petersburg in March of 2007. We found her convincing, friendly, outgoing to a fault, exuding humanity and compassion while being an unrelenting critic of the religion she left behind in her native Syria. This second al-Jazeera interview was triggered by the republication of the Danish cartoon of Muhammad with a turban shaped like a bomb. Debating Dr. Sultan was Egyptian Islamist, Tal’at Rmeih.

Here’s what Sultan said and the reactions of Rmieh and the infamous ‘reformist’ Sheik Yusuf al-Qaradawi of Egypt. al- Qaradawi you may recall justified suicide bombing attacks against Israeli civilians and US service personnel in Iraq.

“The reactions of the Muslims, which were characterized by savageness, barbarism, and backwardness, only increased the value of these cartoons and gave them more importance than they merited, simply because they proved that these cartoons were true, and that the message they were conveying was true.” Sultan said.

“The Muslim is an irrational creature ruled by instincts,” she declared. “Those teachings have deprived him of his mind, incited his emotions and reduced him to the level of an inferior creature that cannot control himself or react to events rationally.”

An Egyptian Islamist, Tal’at Rmeih, who debated Sultan on the March 4 Al Jazeera show, replied: “God help me. First, Islam is too great to be harmed by the publisher of the cartoon, or by that woman who is talking over there. The truth is that everything she said is 100 percent false, I’m sad to say. It seems to me that the American and Zionist intelligence agencies have begun to produce people who are hostile to their own nation.”

And here’s what Sheik al-Qaradawi said and Bob Sepncer’s ominous comment:

Qaradawi said Sultan, a former Muslim, uttered “unbearable, ghastly things that made my hair stand on end.” Specifically, “she had the audacity to publicly curse Allah, his prophet, the Quran, the history of Islam and the Islamic nation.”

Spencer concludes, “These are serious charges, and Qaradawi states them in terms that his jihadist minions will understand as meaning that she must be killed.

The real reason why these Islamist clerics are so agitated is that Dr. Sultan, the bold critic of Islam, is a woman. Brava to fearless truth speaker, Dr. Wafa Sultan.

Wafa Sultan shocks Islamic TV audience again, Al Jazeera apologizes

WorldNetDaily,
March 25, 2008

Wafa Sultan – the Syria-born psychiatrist whose Al Jazeera interview two years ago sent shockwaves throughout the Islamic world – reportedly is the target of a serious tacit death threat from an influential Muslim scholar in the wake of a second interview with the Arab satellite television network.

Al Jazeera issued an apology after Sultan’s interview earlier this month, pointing to “offensive remarks” but never specifying anything she said. Since then, however, the prominent Sheik Yusuf al-Qaradawi of Egypt “has directed his rage against Sultan,” writes author and Jihad Watch director Robert Spencer in FrontPage Magazine

Qaradawi said Sultan, a former Muslim, uttered “unbearable, ghastly things that made my hair stand on end.” Specifically, “she had the audacity to publicly curse Allah, his prophet, the Quran, the history of Islam and the Islamic nation.”

Spencer concludes, “These are serious charges, and Qaradawi states them in terms that his jihadist minions will understand as meaning that she must be killed.

“Given that Qaradawi has justified suicide attacks against Israeli civilians and American soldiers in Iraq, it is clear that he has no distaste for violence, and thus law enforcement officials should take his latest fulminations against Wafa Sultan very seriously indeed,” Spencer writes.

The American Way and Political Islam are NOT Compatible

As a Christian Right kind of guy I view Islam/Mohammedanism as the greatest threat to American Liberty and freedom of thought or conscience since Soviet Communism was extremely active in infiltrating American social settings as well as infiltrating the government.

I have been on the fence between grouping Islam with radical Islam and trying to see a separation between the two.

As an American and a huge supporter of Freedom of Religion (although not to the extent Leftists shut down Christianity on related taxpayer connected community or national apparatuses) I struggle with the concept of Islam being a religion that can practice in America. There is absolutely no tolerance within Islam for other faiths or lack of faith for that matter.

In Mohammedan dominated nations being a non-Muslim makes you a second class citizen and susceptible to retribution for practicing another faith (or lack thereof) openly, especially if the other faith promulgates its tenets as better to Islam or is critical of Islam. Retribution could be as horrible as death and destruction.

According to Islamic sacred writings there is no separating the acts of worship from the acts of politics. Thus the American and/or Westerner needs to comprehend the concept of Political Islam. Part of honoring the Mohammedan Allah and its Prophet is wreaking havoc on non-believing Muslims (kafir) until there is a humiliating submission (the second class citizen) or conversion or death. This Political Islam concept is hugely prevalent among Mohammedan dominated nations.

In the West it is obviously not quite so virulent; however there is evidence that the back to the basics ideology of radical Islam is making an inroad into America and the West. Honor Killings is something the Western Public is beginning to slowly understand is part of the strict Islamic paradigm even though the politically correct Mainstream Media (MSM) has gone to great lengths to obfuscate the murder of a Muslim (usually woman, daughter or sister) to any connection to Mohammedan practices. I have even read the denunciation of Honor Killing from Muslim-American groups as being un-Islamic and more a cultural phenomena from foreign nations. Hello, the foreign nations alluded to are Mohammedan dominated.

Just as I am about to join groups and people that are on the “Ban Islam” bus I across such websites similar to Muslims Against Sharia or committed Muslims who denounce the Political Islam of Mohammedan retro-revivalists. One such person is M. Zuhdi Jasser who condemns Political Islam because he wants his Islamic family to be partakers of the American dream of Life, Liberty and the Pursuit of Happiness while freely practicing his faith.

Now that is the real American Way: individual autonomy merged with an American consciousness or assimilation while honoring the roots of your heritage. This kind of assimilation has occurred with countless immigrants to America in the past yet this is the kind of assimilation that retro-Islamists abhor as insulting to their Prophet Mohammed and his god known as Allah.

Jasser has an essay entitled, “Obama Administration Stacking the Deck with Islamists”. It is an awesome essay which points to the Obama Administration having connection with Islamists in America and abroad who are definitely anti-American and live for the premise that America will slowly be infused with a enough Muslim converts to take over the political process thereby ending the American paradigm of Life, Liberty and the Pursuit of Happiness.

The Virus of the Islamic Fifth Column

Once upon a time in America there was a Fifth Column of Soviet inspired Communists that had infiltrated the U.S. government. That was a scary thing considering the old Soviet Union wanted to dominate the world with its Soviet Empire under the illusion the “proletarian” class would shake off some kind of false Capitalist bondage that exploited working class people by imposing democratic principles, civil rights and government for the people (as opposed to people for the government).

Another Fifth Column is slowly emerging in the United States with an unlikely comrade in the American Left. I say unlikely because the American Left is propping up Political Islam in America as European governments already have accomplished.

European Islam has proven every bit as violent as Middle Eastern Islam. Indeed, Islam in Europe has demanded and in many cases succeeded to have the tyranny of Sharia Law to supersede the rule of law based on Western principles in European governments.

If this type of Islamic Fifth Column continues to grow in America under the delusion of the freedom of religion, there will be NO freedom in America; particularly there will be NO freedom of religion. Sharia Law is evil.

Act for America has sent out an email alert that exposes how Islamic sympathizers and Muslims have even warped military strategy in America’s military schools to view Islamic murdering terrorists as Hamas to be a victimized “misunderstood” group of Muslims.

THIS IS WHAT IS BEING TAUGHT IN AMERICA’S WAR COLLEGE!

Below is Act for America’s email which is a must read. Then go on to read Patrick Poole’s article describing on form of Islamic interpenetration into Western ideology.

Strategic collapse at the Army War College

Act for America
Email Sent: January 16, 2009

Below you will find an excellent piece by our friend Patrick Poole which addresses a fundamental problem we repeatedly point out – that far too many in our government are either ignorant of, in denial of, or disingenuous about the underlying threat doctrine that drives Islamic terrorism worldwide.


This sentence is particularly alarming:



“Two weeks ago, Ricks reported on a new publication by Army War College research professor Sherifa Zuhur on Hamas and Israel that informs readers that Hamas has been misunderstood due to the misreporting by ‘Israeli and Western sources that villainize the group.’”




So, according to Zuhur, the Hamas organization that is caught on video brainwashing children to hate Israel and kill Jews, training children to be terrorists, and using children as human shields, is not really so bad, but has been “misunderstood” because of reporting that “villianizes” the organization.


Remarkable.


As we have noted many times before, one reason it is essential that we build a formidable grassroots citizen action network is that we must have the “bottom up” strength to successfully push for government policies that truly understand the nature of the threat we face and take the necessary actions to combat it.


We know there are many people throughout the government who share our concerns about political correctness run amok. But when the Army War College publishes a report with absurd claims like Zuhur’s, it should be eminently clear to us that the voices of political correctness are overpowering the voices of sanity and reason.


One action you can take today, if you haven’t already done so, is to sign our petition calling for a UN investigation of Hamas.

Thoughts on G.H. Johnson Jr. – ‘A SCF Journal Entry’

Gary Johnson, Jr. believes that focusing on what I would the Political Islam nature of Mohammedanism diminishes from understanding the totally of the Theo-political cult. In other words anti-jihadist writers that focus on the Mohammedan dictum of “convert, pay alms or die” does not provide enough understanding of Mohammedanism to demonstrate and/or educate the West of the Islamic Supremacist attitude prevalent among Mohammedans.

Mr. Johnson may be correct in the long run nonetheless I am still convinced that an activism to expose the Theo-political nature of Mohammedanism is the best way to understand the cult’s threat to 21st century Western Civilization that has achieve a high degree of representative democracy, civil rights and human rights. Political Islam would swallow modern Western Civilization into a black hole of Islamic Supremacist repression particularly to those who choose not to convert.

Mr. Johnson uses the wording “convert, pay alms or die.” Paying alms (money or charity for the poor) is not what a non-Muslim is expected to pay in the sense of regarding the poor. Anti-Jihadist would point out the dictum for non-Mohammedans (aka kafir or various similarities) are a repressive tax (jizya) designed to humiliate the kafir for paying for so-called “protection” that their lives are not terminated. A better wording thus would be “convert, pay the jizya-protection tax or die.”

Let me be clear: I am not saying Mr. Johnson is inaccurate. Indeed, a complete understanding of Mohammedanism would provide a greater sense of Western empowerment to overcome the deceptive “political correct” zone the West is determined to maintain. In addition I am hardly an expert on Islam. I am a reader of various experts on Islam. I know the anti-jihadist writers do not agree on everything; however they do agree on one thing – Islam is NOT compatible to the Western way of life.

JRH 12/23/08

The Brutal Reality about Islam

I almost hate to say the Theo-cult religion known to most as Islam (I often prefer Mohammedanism) is an inherently evil religion. The number one reason I hate to say this is because I know there are good and decent people who call themselves or identify on some level with Mohammedanism.

If there were not good people practicing Mohammedanism such websites as Muslims Against Sharia would not exist. I also realize there are Mohammedans that believe such notions that “Jihad” is all about the “Inner Struggle” more than make war on unbelievers to force them to be believers even if it means the Kafir’s death.

Nonetheless, even a brief cursory examination of writings considered holy to Mohammedans demonstrate this is not the case. Mohammed was an inherently violent man who liked his women (even if he had to force them) and encouraged his hoards of followers to war against the Kafir yet really the goal was to amass wealth and slaves (FIRST for Mohammed then for his followers).

Thus these “Inner Struggle” Mohammedans are not practicing the dominant tenets in their theo-political faith (Thank God!).

Places in the Middle East that PC Westerners might label practitioners of Mohammedanism as Radical Islam are actually closer to following the theo-political cult laid by Mohammed and carried by his Companions.

Saying that I came across a post on the social blogosphere known as VOX with the name Ben’s Blog. It is an awesome work of research that Politically Correct hide their eyes from and Mohammedan theologians DO NOT want readers to view. Hello CAIR and such American Muslim organizations that claim representation of American-Muslims yet support the radical Islamic terrorists and the theology of Saudi Wahhabis and Egyptian Ikhwan.

The peace is quite honest so I am certain some nitwit will call Ben a racist when in actuality he is a watchmen on the wall saying the enemy is at the gates. Check it out.

Why We Waste Blood & Treasure in Afganistan [sic]
Posted by Ben
Nov 24, 2008 at 2:11 AM
Ben’s Blog (Vox)

An important question was propounded in the Gathering Storm Newsletter. It happened in their Winston Churchill Golden Balls Award section from which I quote.

The Golden Balls Award goes each week to the most flagrant Appeaser or Apologist or those that outright lie that has done most to undermine our defense against Islamists. This weeks Golden Balls Award goes to: Hamid Karzai

Afghan leader pledges to protect Taliban from US

Mr Karzai said he would go "to any length" to protect Mullah Mohammad Omar, who has a $10 million price on his head from the US government.

He challenged his Western backers to leave the country or remove him if they disagreed.

"If I hear from him that he is willing to come to Afghanistan or to negotiate for peace... I, as the president of Afghanistan, will go to any length providing protection," Mr Karzai told a press conference.

"If I say I want protection for Mullah Omar, the international community has two choices - remove me or leave if they disagree," he said.

Tell me again why our troops are fighting and dying to keep this 'Mayor of Kabul' in power?

We are wasting blood & treasure in Afghanistan because our elected leaders are ignorant damned fools with neither knowledge, courage nor convictions. We sent an invasion force where we needed to send thermonuclear weapons.

The stated strategic objectives are absolute impossibilities; they can never be obtained by invasion.

Afghanistan; free & independent, democratic with:

· full human rights & liberties

· education

· prosperity

· not a haven for terrorists

· a state sponsor of terrorism.

Our elected leaders can not identify the enemy:

it ain't:

· Afghanistan

· Iraq

· Iran

· al-Qaeda.

it is:

· ISLAM

All worshipers of Allah; admirers & emulators of Muhammad, jointly and severally, wheresoever dispersed over the face of the earth, in all their Mosques, Madrassahs and Islamic Cultural Centers are the enemy.

The various wars ongoing in:

· Israel

· Lebanon

· Afghanistan

· Iraq

· Algeria

· Morocco

· Nigeria

· Kenya

· Somalia

· Sudan

· Indonesia

· Philippines

· Chechnia

are battlefronts in one war: Islam's global conquest of Kuffar. They are not separate, unrelated incidents. Our elected leaders are unaware of this fatal fact; unable to perceive the big picture because they have not read and comprehended Islam's canon of scripture, tradition and jurisprudence.

What our leaders don't know will cost us much treasure and, ultimately, our lives, liberties and culture. All will be lost because they are neglecting our defense. They don't know who the enemy is or why he is inimical. They don't know that this enemy can not be placated. It can not be appeased. It will not tire. It will not quit until it has conquered the entire world.

Muslims are not freemen; they are Allah's slaves, having sold their lives and their earthly prospects to Allah in return for admission to gardens flowing with rivers of wine & honey , with trees of low hanging fruit always in season and full breasted maidens who remain virgins no matter how often the Muslims sport with them. For that, the Muslims sold themselves, so that they fight, kill and are killed in Allah's cause. Our elected leaders are unaware of this fatal fact because they have not read Islam's canon of scripture. Go to 55:46 and 78:31 and read about the Paradise.

Al-Taubah 111 discusses the bargain between Allah and his slaves. Go now and read it. This is reinforced in As-Saff 10 -13, which explicitly sets Jihad as the price of admission to Paradise. Go read it. The gardens are mentioned often as a reward for those killed in Jihad. Why don't you believe me?

2:25

3:15

3:136

3:195

9:21

You think I'm a liar, taking things out of context, twisting, perverting, distorting or mis-interpreting? Then go to http://www.quranbrowser.com/ and search for gardens. Search for rivers while you're at it.

Why the war? Because Moe was a pirate, deriving his revenue from ghazwat. I must be a liar and a damned fool; Moe was a Prophet. Yeah, right. Which one of us has read the Qur'an & Hadith? Somebody does not know his subject, and it ain't me. I have something you do not have: proof.

Bukhari Ch 61 # 2756: ...It is mentioned from Ibn 'Umar from the Prophet, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, "My provision has been placed under the shadow of my spear, and abasement and humility have been placed on the one who disobeys my command.

That ahadith has been Bowdlerized from other on line texts but it is still in some hard copies. Moe got his living by his spear. For the abasement & humility part, see 3:112 . But you need confirmation, don't you. I have it.

Muslim Book 019, Number 4327 :The spoils of war were not made lawful for any people before us, This is because Allah saw our weakness and humility and made them lawful for us.

Allah gave Moe special dispensation to accrue spoils. One hadith lists five special qualities that set Moe apart from other Prophets. One of them is relevant to this matter.

Bukhari Volume 1, Book 7, Number 331 : 3. The booty has been made Halal (lawful) for me yet it was not lawful for anyone else before me.

In another hadith collected by Bukhari, Moe brags about victory through terrorism and claims all the world's wealth for himself.

Bukhari Volume 4, Book 52, Number 220 :

Narrated Abu Huraira:

Allah's Apostle said, "I have been sent with the shortest expressions bearing the widest meanings, and I have been made victorious with terror (cast in the hearts of the enemy), and while I was sleeping, the keys of the treasures of the world were brought to me and put in my hand." Abu Huraira added: Allah's Apostle has left the world and now you, people, are bringing out those treasures (i.e. the Prophet did not benefit by them).

How did Moe become wealthy?

Bukhari Volume 3, Book 37, Number 495 :

Narrated Abu Huraira:

Whenever a dead man in debt was brought to Allah's Apostle he would ask, "Has he left anything to repay his debt?" If he was informed that he had left something to repay his debts, he would offer his funeral prayer, otherwise he would tell the Muslims to offer their friend's funeral prayer. When Allah made the Prophet wealthy through conquests, he said, "I am more rightful than other believers to be the guardian of the believers, so if a Muslim dies while in debt, I am responsible for the repayment of his debt, and whoever leaves wealth (after his death) it will belong to his heirs."

How are the spoils to be allocated?

8:1 . They ask you (O Muhammad) about the spoils of war. Say: "The spoils are for Allah and the Messenger." So fear Allah and adjust all matters of difference among you, and obey Allah and His Messenger (Muhammad), if you are believers.

8:41 . And know that whatever of war-booty that you may gain, verily one-fifth (1/5th) of it is assigned to Allah, and to the Messenger, and to the near relatives [of the Messenger (Muhammad)], (and also) the orphans, Al-Masâkin (the poor) and the wayfarer, if you have believed in Allah and in that which We sent down to Our slave (Muhammad) on the Day of criterion (between right and wrong), the Day when the two forces met (the battle of Badr) - And Allah is Able to do all things.

In one ayeh, Allah specifies genocide as a prerequisite for ransoming captives and tells us explicitly what motivated Moe. Read it and curse Islam.

8:67 . It is not for a Prophet that he should have prisoners of war (and free them with ransom) until he had made a great slaughter (among his enemies) in the land. You desire the good of this world (i.e. the money of ransom for freeing the captives), but Allah desires (for you) the Hereafter. And Allah is All-Mighty, All-Wise.

Of course, as always, you require confirmation. I have it for you.

33:26 . And those of the people of the Scripture who backed them (the disbelievers) Allah brought them down from their forts and cast terror into their hearts, (so that) a group (of them) you killed, and a group (of them) you made captives.

33:27 . And He caused you to inherit their lands, and their houses, and their riches, and a land which you had not trodden (before). And Allah is Able to do all things.

What did Allah do to that Jewish settlement? What did Moe receive as a result?

Now you know the why, and you have a hint of what. I will now provide more explicit detail: Allah's open ended, outcome oriented, unlimited Jihad imperatives. Read them and curse Islam.

8:39 . And fight them until there is no more Fitnah (disbelief and polytheism: i.e. worshipping others besides Allah) and the religion (worship) will all be for Allah Alone [in the whole of the world ]. But if they cease (worshipping others besides Allah), then certainly, Allah is All-Seer of what they do.

9:29 . Fight against those who (1) believe not in Allah, (2) nor in the Last Day, (3) nor forbid that which has been forbidden by Allah and His Messenger (4) and those who acknowledge not the religion of truth (i.e. Islam) among the people of the Scripture (Jews and Christians), until they pay the Jizyah with willing submission, and feel themselves subdued.

Al-Anfal 39 specifically refers to the pagans at Mekkah. But, unfortunately, it contains more general language. One of the compound terminal conditions is that only Allah be worshiped. Note the expression in brackets The translators got that from a tafsir. I have quoted the Hilali & Khan translation. Click the link I provided and read Abdullah Yusufali's translation.

And fight them on until there is no more tumult or oppression, and there prevail justice and faith in God altogether and everywhere; but if they cease, verily God doth see all that they do

Al-Taubah 29 declares war upon anyone having a scriptural religion who does not convert to Islam. They are to be fought until they are subjugated and pay extortion. Click the link I provided and read Rodwell's translation.

Make war upon such of those to whom the Scriptures have been given as believe not in God, or in the last day, and who forbid not that which God and His Apostle have forbidden, and who profess not the profession of the truth, until they pay tribute out of hand, and they be humbled.

But of course those are anachronisms, not applicable to modern times and conditions. Yeah, right. Moe had something to say about that, why won't you listen? I made the crucial clause bold red so you can spot it.

Abu Dawud Book 14, Number 2526

Narrated Anas ibn Malik:

The Prophet (peace_be_upon_him) said: Three things are the roots of faith: to refrain from (killing) a person who utters, "There is no god but Allah" and not to declare him unbeliever whatever sin he commits, and not to excommunicate him from Islam for his any action; and jihad will be performed continuously since the day Allah sent me as a prophet until the day the last member of my community will fight with the Dajjal (Antichrist). The tyranny of any tyrant and the justice of any just (ruler) will not invalidate it. One must have faith in Divine decree.

Jihad continues from 610 to Judgement Day! What is Jihad? Hilali & Khan define it in a footnote to 2:190 .

V. 2:190) Al-Jihad (holy fighting) ln Allah’s Cause (with full force of numbersand weaponry) is given the utmost importance in Islam and is one of its pillars (onwhich it stands). By Jihad Islam is established, Allah's Word is made superior, (HisWord belng La Haha illallah which means none has the right to be worshiped butAllah), and His Religion (Islam) is propagated. By abandoning Jihad (may Allahprotect us from that) Islam is destroyed and the Muslims fall into an inferiorposition; their honour is lost, their lands are stolen, their rule and authority vanish.

Jihad is an obligatory duty In Islam on every Muslim, and he who tries to escapefrom this duty, or does not in his innermost heart wish to fulfil this duty, dies withone of the qualities of a hypocrite.

Narrated Abdullah bin Masud I asked Allah's Messenger, 'O Allah's Messenger!
what is the best deed?' He replied, "To offer the Salat (prayers) at their early fixed stated times.' I asked, 'What is next ln goodness?" He replied, 'To be good and dutlful to your parents." I further asked, 'What is next in goodness?' He replied,'To participate in Jihad in Allaha's Cause.' I did not ask AIIAh's Messenger anymore and if l had asked him more. he would have told me more. (Sahi Al-Bukhari VoI.4. Hadith N¤.41).

Holy fighting in Allah's cause. With full force . Shariah: Islamic law, also defines Jihad. Refer to Book O, Chapter 9 of Reliance of the Traveller . I have added links in the text to facilitate your research. .

Chapter O9.0: Jihad

(O: Jihad means to war against non-Muslims, and is etymologically derived from the word mujahada signifying warfare to establish the religion. And it is the lesser jihad. As for the greater jihad, it is spiritual warfare against the lower self (nafs), which is why the Prophet (Allah bless him and give him peace) said as he was returning from jihad.

``We have returned from the lesser jihad to the greater jihad.''

The scriptural basis for jihad, prior to scholarly consensus (def: b7) is such Koranic verses as:

-1- ``Fighting is prescribed for you'' (Koran 2:216 );
-2- ``Slay them wherever you find them'' (Koran 4:89 );
-3- ``Fight the idolators utterly'' (Koran 9:36 );

and such hadiths as the one related by Bukhari and Muslim that the Prophet (Allah bless him and give him peace) said:

``I have been commanded to fight people until they testify that there is no god but Allah and that Muhammad is the Messenger of Allah, and perform the prayer, and pay zakat. If they say it, they have saved their blood and possessions from me, except for the rights of Islam over them. And their final reckoning is with Allah'';
and the hadith reported by Muslim,

``To go forth in the morning or evening to fight in the path of Allah is better than the whole world and everything in it. ''Details concerning jihad are found in the accounts of the military expeditions of the Prophet (Allah bless him and give him peace), including his own martial forays and those on which he dispatched others. The former consist of the ones he personally attended, some twenty-seven (others say twenty-nine) of them. He fought in eight of them, and killed only one person with his noble hand, Ubayy ibn Khalaf, at the battle of Uhud. On the latter expeditions he sent others to fight, himself remaining at Medina, and these were forty-seven in number.)

How frequently must Jihad be performed? Paragraph one provides this detail for us, as regards fighting Kuffar in their home countries.

As for subsequent times, there are two possible states in respect to non-Muslims.

The first is when they are in their own countries, in which case jihad (def: o9.8) is a communal obligation, and this is what our author is speaking of when he says, "Jihad is a communal obligation," meaning upon the Muslims each year.

In case that is not entirely clear, another quote from al-Shafi'i should clear it up for you, if not, you are too stupid to breathe, let alone read.

Al-Shafi'i (God have mercy on him) said: "The least that the imam must do is that he allow no year to pass without having organised a military expedition by himself, or by his raiding parties, according to the Muslims' interest, so that the jihad will only be stopped in a year for a (reasonable) excuse." He said: "If he did not undertake the sending of enough troops to fight, those who are absent (must) go out, and consider as an obligation that which God (who is praised) said."

So, the Muslims are legally obligated by Allah's command & Moe's example, to make war on somebody every year. Who, exactly are they to do it to? For this, we turn to Book O9.8 & 9.9. Read it and curse Islam!

O9.8: The Objectives of Jihad

The caliph (o25) makes war upon Jews, Christians, and Zoroastrians (N: provided he has first invited them to enter Islam in faith and practice, and if they will not, then invited them to enter the social order of Islam by paying the non-Muslim poll tax (jizya, def: o11.4) -which is the significance of their paying it, not the money itself-while remaining in their ancestral religions) (O: and the war continues) until they become Muslim or else pay the non-Muslim poll tax (O: in accordance with the word of Allah Most High,

"Fight those who do not believe in Allah and the Last Day and who forbid not what Allah and His messenger have forbidden-who do not practice the religion of truth, being of those who have been given the Book-until they pay the poll tax out of hand and are humbled" (Koran 9.29),

the time and place for which is before the final descent of Jesus (upon whom be peace). After his final coming, nothing but Islam will be accepted from them, for taking the poll tax is only effective until Jesus' descent (upon him and our Prophet be peace), which is the divinely revealed law of Muhammad. The coming of Jesus does not entail a separate divinely revealed law, for he will rule by the law of Muhammad. As for the Prophet's saying (Allah bless him and give him peace),
"I am the last, there will be no prophet after me,"

this does not contradict the final coming of Jesus (upon whom be peace), since he will not rule according to the Evangel, but as a follower of our Prophet (Allah bless him and give him peace) ).

O9.9

The caliph fights all other peoples until they become Muslim (O: because they are not a people with a Book, nor honored as such, and are not permitted to settle with paying the poll tax (jizya) ) (n: though according to the Hanafi school, peoples of all other religions, even idol worshipers, are permitted to live under the protection of the Islamic state if they either become Muslim or agree to pay the poll tax, the sole exceptions to which are apostates from Islam and idol worshipers who are Arabs, neither of whom has any choice but becoming Muslim (al-Hidaya Shariah Bidaya al-mubtadi' (y21), 6.48-49) ).

Why does the Caliph make war upon Jews, Christians & Zoroastrians? Because of Allah's divine command in Al-Taubah 29. Got a clue yet? Shariah is explicit; read O9.8 again! Why does the Caliph fight all other peoples? Could it be Al-Anfal 39?. Could it be Moe's declaration that he was ordered to fight the people?


Whoopee!! We're home free! Attaturk dissolved the Caliphate so they can't make war any more. Yeah, right.

O9.6

It is offensive to conduct a military expedition against hostile non-Muslims without the caliph's permission (A: though if there is no caliph (def: o25), no permission is required).

The fools have one last refuge: mis-translation, mis-interpretation, out of context and ignoring peaceful verses. I have one resource which trumps those moronic assertions. Ibn Kathir spent his adult life studying the Qur'an & hadith. His tafsir is the most widely accepted exegeses of the Qur'an. In 3:7, Allah tells us that his book contains commands in clear verses.

3:7 . It is He Who has sent down to you (Muhammad ) the Book (this Qur'an). In it are Verses that are entirely clear, they are the foundations of the Book [and those are the Verses of Al-Ahkam (commandments, etc.), Al-Fara'id (obligatory duties) and Al-Hudud (legal laws for the punishment of thieves, adulterers, etc.)]; and others not entirely clear. So as for those in whose hearts there is a deviation (from the truth) they follow that which is not entirely clear thereof, seeking Al-Fitnah (polytheism and trials, etc.), and seeking for its hidden meanings, but none knows its hidden meanings save Allah. And those who are firmly grounded in knowledge say: "We believe in it; the whole of it (clear and unclear Verses) are from our Lord." And none receive admonition except men of understanding. (Tafsir At-Tabarî).

Ibn Kathir tells us that those commands are to be believed and implemented.

The Muhkamat are the Ayat that explain the abrogating rulings, the allowed, prohibited, laws, limits, obligations and rulings that should be believed in and implemented. As for the Mutashabihat Ayat, they include the abrogated Ayat, parables, oaths, and what should be believed in, but not implemented.

The titles which Ibn Kathir gave to some of his tafsir topics should give us pause. These tafsirs present the Arabic text, English translation, related ayat and hadith. Read them and comprehend the fact that Allah's damn book means exactly what it says in plain language.

· The Command to have Enmity towards the Disbelievers and to abandon supporting Them

· The Command to strike the Enemies' Necks, tighten Their Bonds, and then free Them either by an Act of Grace or for a Ransom

· The Order to fight until there is no more Fitnah

· Allah gives Victory to the Believing Group

· Permission to fight; this is the first Ayah of Jihad

· The Order for Jihad against the Disbelievers, the Closest, then the Farthest Areas

· The Order to fight to eradicate Shirk and Kufr

· The Order to fight People of the Scriptures until They give the Jizyah


· The Order for Jihad against the Disbelievers and Hypocrites

· The Good News that Muslims will conquer the Known World, and ultimately the Entire World

· The Good News that Muslims will Dominate the People of the Book

· The Good News that Islam shall prevail

Remember the reference in Reliance to Moe's activities? His recitation & works are freely available for you to read at USC-MSA's Compendium of Islamic Texts. There are links to the Qur'an & Sunnah in the left side bar. Bukhari:

.Fighting for the Cause of Allah (Jihaad)

.One-fifth of Booty to the Cause of Allah (Khumus)

.Military Expeditions led by the Prophet (pbuh) (Al-Maghaazi)

Muslim:

.The Book of Jihad and Expedition (Kitab Al-Jihad wa'l-Siyar)

Abu Dawud:

.Jihad (Kitab Al-Jihad)

Malik's Muwatta:

.Jihad

Violent, hateful & antisemitic verses are scattered throughout the Qur'an, which is about one third of the Bible's length. Both the Qur'an and hadith contain considerable redundancy. These Surahs

8 AL-ANFAL (SPOILS OF WAR, BOOTY)

9 AT-TAWBA (REPENTANCE, DISPENSATION)

33 AL-AHZAB (THE CLANS, THE COALITION,THE COMBINED FORCES)

48 AL-FATH (VICTORY, CONQUEST)

61 AS-SAFF (THE RANKS, BATTLE ARRAY)

are required to develop a full comprehension of the Jihad imperative.

President Bush talks about the war of ideas, but he never identifies the ideas.

. Supremacism

. triumphalism

. tribalism

. literalism

. absolutism

and, most important, the mandate to conquer the entire world; those are the ideas we must fight. We must show the Ummah al-Islamiyya exactly who Moe was and what he did. They believe him to be the best and greatest of men, worthy of emulation. Most of them have not read the hadith. Reading and comprehending the Qur'an & hadith causes many Muslims to apostasize.

Read the Qur'an and understand that Muslims are required to obey Allah's commands and emulate Moe's example. Read the Hadith and understand that Moe committed genocide & terrorism. They can't get to Paradise and claim their Houris & wine until they convert or kill us. Do you comprehend what that means? Islam is eternal war. We must rid the earth of it.

The unlearned lessons of Vietnam:

· territory

· seize

· hold

· secure

· sanctuaries must be denied.

The unlearned lesson of Afghanistan & Iraq:

· break Allah's yoke of slavery

· induce mass apostasy

· kill the recidivists.

The unlearned lesson of Israel:

· allow no Muslims within rocket range.

Over simplified & brutal. Yes, it is, and vital. Anything less is a complete waste of blood and treasure; treason against the human race. See my recent blog post:
