There is a division of the house. On one side are the politically
correct in government, the leftist mainstream media, and a raft of
Islamist apologists. One and all are tripping over each other in
reassuring us that the mass murderers such as Maj. Nidal Malik Hasan
and suicide bombers who detonate their explosive vests in crowded
marketplaces and even mosques are individual anomalies and Islam is not responsible for what they do.
On the other hand are those who have been fed up with the
numberless daily horrific acts that are clearly committed under the
banner of Islam throughout the world. In all fairness, there needs to
be a distinction. Numerous criminal acts are also committed, on a daily
basis, by non-Muslims. The critical difference is that non-Muslim
criminals do not hoist a religious banner to justify their misdeeds,
while the Muslims proudly claim that they commit their heinous acts in
obedience to the dictates of their religious faith.
Would someone, please, explain what motivated Nidal Hasan who had
been, at tax payer’s expense, educated from college all the way through
medical school and post medical-school training, to turn his deadly
weapons against a nation that gave him everything he had?
If Islam had nothing to do with what Maj. Nidal Malik Hasan did, why:
▪ had he repeatedly preached the ascendancy of Islam to the U.S. Constitution?
▪ had he publicly supported Islamic suicide bombing?
▪ had he proclaimed his highest loyalty to Islam?
▪ had he been in contact with violent anti-U.S. Islamists and a virulent Yemeni Imam?
▪ did he distribute copies of the Quran to people the morning of his bloody attack?
▪ did he keep screaming “Allah-o-Akbar” as he heartlessly sprayed
over a hundred bullets, killing thirteen and injuring some thirty
innocent men and women?
Here is the truth, as bitter as it may be. Islam is the culprit.
Islam is anything but a religion of peace. Violence is at the very core
of Islam. Violence is institutionalized in the Muslim’s holy book, the
Quran, in many suras:
Qur'an:9:5 "Fight and kill the disbelievers wherever you find
them, take them captive, harass them, lie in wait and ambush them using
every stratagem of war."
Qur'an:9:112 "The Believers fight in Allah's cause; they slay and are slain, kill and are killed."
Qur'an:8:39 "So fight them until there is no more Fitnah
(disbelief [non-Muslims]) and all submit to the religion of Allah alone
(in the whole world)."
Qur'an:8:65 "O Prophet, urge the faithful to fight. If there are
twenty among you with determination they will vanquish two hundred; if
there are a hundred then they will slaughter a thousand unbelievers,
for the infidels are a people devoid of understanding."
Qur'an:9:38 "Believers, what is the matter with you, that when
you are asked to go forth and fight in Allah's Cause you cling to the
earth? Do you prefer the life of this world to the Hereafter? Unless
you go forth, He will afflict and punish you with a painful doom, and
put others in your place."
Qur'an:47:4 "When you clash with the unbelieving Infidels in
battle (fighting Jihad in Allah's Cause), smite their necks until you
overpower them, killing and wounding many of them. At length, when you
have thoroughly subdued them, bind them firmly, making (them) captives.
Thereafter either generosity or ransom (them based upon what benefits
Islam) until the war lays down its burdens. Thus are you commanded by
Allah to continue carrying out Jihad against the unbelieving infidels
until they submit to Islam."
And the Quran is considered by Muslims as the word-for-word literal edicts of the Muslims’ god, Allah.
Right from the start, violence served as the engine of Islam
under the command and supervision of Muhammad himself. For one, the
Prophet’s son-in-law cousin, Ali, was titled the Commander of the
Faithful for his unsurpassed feats of butchery. Ali with the assistance
of one or two of his thugs, beheaded some seven hundred captives, most
of them Jews, in only one day. This man, highly esteemed by the prophet
of Allah, had a sword that had its own name—Zolfaghar. Ali’s portrait,
holding the menacing sword, adorns the homes and shops throughout
Shi’a’-lands. And this man, Ali, is revered by the Shi’a at the same
level as Muhammad.
On the Sunni side, Muhammad’s co-revered is Umar, another
unabashed killer of untold numbers. And of course the choice weapon of
these champions of the religion of peace was the sword. And to this
day, a sword adorns the flag of the birthplace of the religion of
peace, Saudi Arabia.
And Islam, by the nature of its very doctrine, appeals to man’s
base nature. It promotes intolerance, hatred, discrimination, and much
more:
Qur'an:61:2 "O Muslims, why say one thing and do another?
Grievously odious and hateful is it in the sight of Allah that you say
that which you do not. Truly Allah loves those who fight in His Cause
in a battle array, as if they were a solid cemented structure."
In reality, Islam is like a deadly contagious disease. Once it
invades the mind of its victim, this debilitating disease is capable of
transforming him to a helpless pawn that has no choice but to execute
what he is directed to do.
Of the reported 1.3 billion Muslims in the world, millions are
already trapped in the terminal stages of this affliction while
millions of others are rapidly joining them. The people enslaved with
the extreme cases of Islamic mental disease are highly infectious. They
actively work to transmit the disease to others, while they themselves
engage in horrific acts of mayhem and violence to demonstrate their
unconditional obedience to the dictates of the Islamic cult of violence.
The savagery and variety of the actions of these Islamic captives are seen daily around the globe.
Many of these acts, committed under the banner of Islam, have become so
commonplace that the world has come to view them as the normal part and
parcel of a troubled humanity. And, from time-to-time, the world is
shocked into a passing and momentary realization of the evil deeds
these Islamist robots commit and quickly gets over it and does nothing
to seriously address this affliction of humanity.
The recent dastardly mass murder at Fort Hood, committed by Maj. Nidal Malik Hasan
will be forgotten by the public before very long. Life will continue on
its deadly course, pushed along in a variety of ways by agents of
death, Islamists. Only the families who lost their loved-ones and those
who survived the bullets have to live the rest of their lives with
incapacitating injuries, in the main, won’t be able to put the episode
behind them.
The mass murderer Nidal Malik Hasan did not riddle people with
bullets under the pressure of momentary insanity. The insanity,
ironically, in a man who was trained to help people with sanity was
introduced in him from the moment of birth and from the very early
years when he prostrated himself five times daily toward Mecca in
expression of total submission to the dogma of hate called Islam.
Islam is a mental retrovirus that has mutated into numerous
varieties and degrees of severity, over the past 1400 years. Everyone
born in a Muslim family, as well as those who convert to Islam,
contract a particular mutation of the Islamic Virus. As is the case
with all retroviruses, the Islamic Virus burrows deeply in the person
and erupts, from time-to-time with potentially devastating consequences.
The Islamic Virus first divests the person of his most
fundamental human attribute. It takes away his right to make decisions
himself and absolves him, in return, of any responsibility for his
actions rendered in blind obedience to it.
A true Muslim does not and cannot believe in freedom of choice. In the religion of Islam—Submission—everything is up to Allah, as clearly and repeatedly stipulated in the Quran .The Raison d'être
for the Muslim is to be an unconditional submissive to the will and
dictates of Allah. Everything that a “good” Muslim does is contingent
upon the will and decree of Allah, he is indoctrinated to believe.
Humanity is facing a deeply troubling dilemma. On the one hand is
the desire of enlightened people whose aim it is to forge a world of
diverse people into one universal society ruled by peace and justice
for everyone while, on the other hand, Islamists are hell-bent on
imposing their stone-age system on everyone. Tellingly, the Muslims
themselves are at one another’s throat regarding which of dozens of Islamic sects’ dogma should rule.
For now, Islam is busy with what it did from the time of its birth, fighting the non-Muslims and infighting.
Truth be told: Violence is the animating force of Islam. Islam
is a religion born through violence, raised by violence, thrives on
violence and dies without violence.
You left out the most heinous crime of all. As far as I know, Muslims are the only people in the world who teach pre-schoolers the moral rightness and religious necessity of strapping on a suicide belt, walking into a restaurant crowded with folks of all kinds, and blowing up yourself and everyone in the restaurant.
Such teachings are available all over the internet and on Youtube. Are the people who make these teaching instruments non-Muslims? If so, then who the heck are they?
They are Muslims.

Agree with just curious. Islam is a 'primitive warrior religion,' or as I often say of it: Islam is the perfect religion for the bully mindset (which may help explain why it spreads easily within certain prison populations in the US).

come2think,
First, I am not a believer in any religion, at least not in any metaphysical sense. I think all religions are too often used and abused by their practitioners to gain power over others. But that's not really a criticism of religion itself. Christianity provides (IMO) a remarkable moral system, and I just wish the professed adherents of it would practice it more than they praise it (while congratulating themselves).
The second part of my post was making a simple point directed at true believers: Instead of condemning other people's faiths, how about remembering one of the central tenets of your own. Preach by example, and there's no better place to start than to live by the doctrines contained in the Sermon on the Mount.
And BTW, apologies for MY initial lack of civility.

How does one stem the rise of 'PC acceptability' of the status quo.? In the Uk over the past decade we have had a definite skewed policy towards 'not offending 'other races to the extent that the non muislim population have become the second class citizens. As one of our main newscastors has wrottten in his book @multiculturisism has not worked'. However we are a very long way down that road now - how do we stop the PC brigade labeling everybody racist who do not share their views?
My mum once said that Islam only wants domination - not co habitation

Look at this site and think about it: [www.biblebelievers.org.au]
Here is the 'Conclusion' of the information page:
>The pagan Arabs worshipped the Moon-god Allah by praying toward Mecca several times a day;
>making a pilgrimage to Mecca; running around the temple of the Moon-god called the Kabah;
>kissing the black stone; killing an animal in sacrifice to the Moon-god; throwing stones at the
>devil; fasting for the month which begins and ends with the crescent moon; giving alms to the poor, etc.
>The Muslim's claim that Allah is the God of the Bible and that Islam arose from the religion of the
>prophets and apostles is refuted by solid, overwhelming archeological evidence. Islam is nothing
>more than a revival of the ancient Moon-god cult. It has taken the symbols, the rites, the ceremonies,
>and even the name of its god from the ancient pagan religion of the Moon-god. As such, it is sheer idolatry
> and must be rejected by all those who follow the Torah and Gospel. moongod.htm
Americans should be free from the worry that any of these primitive, pagan Moon-God worshipers will 'GO JIHADI' and spontaneously and rapidly begin killing us. The time has come to stop all Islamic immigration from the Middle East and Africa; they are not coming to America to be Americans, instead, they come to expand Islam. They also bring their violent 'ways and customs' with them ('honor killings').
Our lives as 'free' Americans is changing. As Islam continues to grow and our spineless government bows-down to these violent worshipers of stone gods, so Americans will not 'offend' any of these murderous bullies. It is hard to believe ours is the same government that 'won' WW2. America is a 'tolerant' society but we do not have to tolerate this brutish ideology of Islam that seeks to conquer America. In the immortal words of Nancy Reagan, 'Just say 'NO!' to Islam'.

First, Christianity's adherents are generally the first to admit they are not perfect followers of the faith (ie sinners) and are continually striving to better themselves. Although I'll admit that I've come across a fair amount of holier-than-thou-ness (sometimes overt, sometimes subtle - but still noticeable) among them. But I have to say that Christians (and Jews for that matter) are, in general, more humble that their athiest or Muslim counterparts, who tend to be insufferably arrogant.
As for your second point, I don't know, personally, a single Christian that condemns other people's faiths. Every condemnation of Islam I have ever seen is based on intellectual observation and sound reasoning, not simply the fact that 'they don't believe in our God'!
Frankly, your entire argument was adolescent. Precisely how much violence on this planet is being perpetrated in the name of Christianity, and how much is being perpetrated in the name of Allah? Provide an honest answer.

Does Islam breed violence? A resounding YES. It is what Islam is all about. It also encourages lying.

I believe, based on what has happened in the world during my lifetime, that Allah is Satan, and Muhammad is His disciple. Read Dante's Inferno and you'll understand my sentiments.

'Without a major upheaval that reevaluates the application and scope of the first amendment, it does not appear that we can survive the steady growth of Islam and the eventual assimilation of our nation. With such a major upheaval, how long before the restrictions in place to protect us from the sword of Islam are used to suppress other ideologies?'
Nothing in any part of the First Amendment provides protection against incitement to murder. Most mosques in the USA teach and preach that it is the duty of each and every Muslim to kill Salman Rushdie in accordance with the fatwah issued against him by the Supreme Leader of Iran.
Call them up and ask them.

I agree...Christianity is a great force for peace and civility in the world.....it has reformed itself after a bloody struggle and matured and grown out of it's ''troubled youth''
Mohammed is as far away from Christ as Mother Teresa is from Atilla.....in fact , if , Atilla or Gengis Khan had invented a religion , I suspect it would look a great deal like Islam.....a warrior religion, designed for CONQUEST
A famous classical historian called V D Hanson , who is no Christian , said that Christ is the single most important individual from antiquity.......an astonishing statement !!

Tell it like it is. Good comments.
JRG3, I'm not sure how delusional Obama is. With his background, close Islamic friends, and his support of the Christian killing, church burning Raille Odinga of for President of Kenya in 2007, I would say he is quite familiar with Islam's modus operandi.
pmk, if not destruction of Islam, then expulsion as Mr. Lawrence Auster suggests on www.amnation.com . In any case the time is at hand where the political correctness of the Left needs to be confronted head on and Islam has to be fought tooth and nail. There is no middle ground here.

How to deal with Islam in America? It is a problem because our courts have ceased to enforce our laws. If murder laws were quickly enforced, with the death penalty, we'd have little problem with honor killings.

Your article needs to be publish all over Europe (Muslim lovers). Muslims are for anything but peace. They are cold blooded killers. Being a Muslim is not a religion, it is a cult and we need to stand up to them before they take us down.
Posted by ROSA GOLISH, on 12/02/2009 at 01:07
Thank you for such an honest expose' of Islam. One correction, if you don't mind, is that there were 14 murdered by Hasan; one of the female victims was pregnant. I guess that was legal because it was a late term abortion paid for with taxpayer funds.
