A Metaphor about Islam

18

There are some good-hearted, non-Muslim tolerant people who tend to overlook all the terrible things that Islam perpetrates by pointing to some of its good teachings. These folks contend that the world should direct its effort not at combating Islam, but at those individuals and groups that commit heinous acts in the name of Islam.

There are others who disagree with this benign approach. This latter group sees all the so-called aberrations as inherent and part and parcel of Islam. They believe that it is Islam that actively promotes and is terribly out of sync with the best interests of the 21st century world.

They contend that Islam may have served the primitive Arab people of 14 centuries ago. But by breaking out of its cradle and morphing into a world-dominating jihad, Islam has inflicted incalculable harm to its victims, as well as to those who ended up in its fold.

At present, Islam can be thought of as a stagnant body of water. Over the years, the body of water has become greatly polluted, to a point that it has become a breeding medium for all kinds of death-bearing insects such as ‘West Nile Disease’ mosquitoes.

Humankind has suffered horrific wars in the past. Yet the present multi-form and multi-front war waged by Muslims has the potential of inflicting more suffering and destroying more lives than ever before. Ruthless Islamic forces advance rapidly in their conquests while those of freedom are acquiescing and retreating. Before long, Islam is poised to achieve its Allah-mandated goal of cleansing the earth of all non-Muslims through ‘grand Jihad’ and establishing the Islamic Ummah.

Jihadists have searched the scripture and selectively choose those statements and precedents that they do use to legitimize their violent and primitive agenda. The Jihadists, for instance, claim that the Quran itself urges them to make jihad, “jahedoo fee sabeil-u-llah,” (make jihad for the cause of Allah.) The word “jihad” has at least two vastly different meanings. It means exertion. It also stands for making war, and it is the latter that the jihadists invoke as their mandate.

While so-called peaceful Muslims are generally silent, either out of fear, lack of organization, or apathy, violent and supremacist Muslims work around the clock and around the world to further their agenda. Hardly a week passes without a Grand Mufti or an Ayatollah who issues pronouncements in support of extremist Islam. The rank-and-file Islamic clergy, for their part, transmit these fatwas and edicts to their flock in mosques and hammer them into the minds of impressionable children in madrassahs. Through this grassroots process, Islam is recruiting greater and greater numbers of adherents. On the one hand, Muslims engage in acts of violence to disrupt the functioning of societies, while on the other they cleverly exploit the freedom they enjoy in non-Islamic lands to subvert them from within.

Dr. Zuhdi Jasser, a former U.S. Navy Lieutenant Commander and supposedly a devout Muslim, wrote in an article a few years ago (Islamism, not Islam is the Problem):

“Most should understand that strategically, identifying ‘Islam as the problem,’ immediately alienates upwards of one quarter of the world’s population and dismisses our most powerful weapon against the militant Islamists—the mantle of religion and the pulpit of moderate Muslims who can retake our faith from the Islamists.”

Well, of course it does. Shaming the devil incites the devil, calling the USSR an “evil empire” did not win Ronald Reagan points for diplomacy, but nonetheless, it was an evil empire. Calling Nazis evil did not make the Germans happy, but they were slaughtering the Jewish Poles down to the last child. This is also why liberal appeasers in 1938, who refused to call Hitler “evil,” got the world into so much trouble by creating a similarly confused intellectual forum about the Nazis. They tried to build bridges to the “moderate” Nazis; they lectured clear thinkers about the dangers of inciting German hatred by pointing out the truth. They accused conservatives of being “just as fascist” as the Nazis; they sent ambassadors and made treaties and trusted that the moderates would come out and “reform” their zealous leadership.

Humanity, with the Muslims in the lead, must stop deluding themselves and abandon Islam altogether. It is really nothing more than an infested corpse that needs be properly disposed of.

We all need to move on. To move away from exclusionary, primitive, and tribal mentality to a vision of all humanity being one, with justice and liberty for all.

Absolutely great article, that gets to the point. The problem, as stated in the article, is that we have not faced up to the danger that “Islamism” represents to the free world. Our leaders fail to recognize that their approach to the PLAQUE espoused by this author is consistent with the already proven happenings that “Islamists” cannot be stopped by appeasement. The danger that those people represent requires a program that nullifies their belief that they are at war with the free world, and that their is no justification that their belief system justifies their horrible conduct to overthrow everything non-Muslim. We need to get serious before it will be too late. Listen to this author as he speaks the truth. Do not hide from the scourge that IS UPON US.

Islam is the past and present scourge of the earth and enslaves its followers. We have two choices…submit or resist. There is no third choice.

Actually this would be better stated as “submit or conquer”.
There is no middle ground with the Cult of Islam.

Thank you very much for such a courageous and truth inspired article.
By the grace of God I pray that the world will realize this truth about Islam and acts accordingly or we will be run over by them.
God bless you and may HIS Angels guide, direct and keep you and your Loved Ones safe always.

I don’t think Muslims in the West are necessarily better people. They just play the victim card more, but always twist the narrative to makes it seem that everyone but Islam itself is the perpetrator.

Regarding conversion to Islam, it’s kind of like “The Walking Dead”, they manage to infect more and more people as time goes by, and those infected turn against their former friends and families, lashing out at all those unlike them in order to sate their endless animalistic hunger.

Love the lovely sentiments … but focusing on Islamism is not a solution.

Whether we want to focus on non-violent aspects of Islam or not, the violent parts are inescapable and cannot be removed from the core beliefs.

Islam must be handled the way we handled the Klan and the Nasties. Our failure to deal with the Communists-at-home has led to this current crisis, and we are not prepared as a society to deal with Islam.

Only one solution has ever worked with Islam: Military resistance to drive the war-mongering, slave-mongering, genocidal infidels out of our lands.

Those of us who know the solution are having a hard enough time just getting enough people together to save the (Actual) Resistance [to Islam] from the Left.

We need to save Free Speech from the Left and reach more drones. We need an overwhelming majority to crush the traitors before we can develop any long term strategy to stop Islamization.

It really has nothing to do with Islam. But hatred of God’s truth and the Savior son Yahusha sent to save mankind. That’s what is driving people to Islam – SATAN!

Islamism may be the visible growth, but without the petri dish of Islam to provide it a place to grow and the nourishment to sustain it, it would soon perish.It has been demonstrated repeatedly throughout history that when Islam comes in close contact with other cultures and belief systems the inevitable outcome is War.
I don’t claim to be a scholar on Islam, but I have learned enough about it to satisfy in my own mind the proposition that it is a Communicable Mental Disorder. This opinion is confirmed by none other that Lord Moncton, MP and and councilor to [multiple] Heads of State, that the Koran should be required to carry a Black Border Warning. This warning is reserved for those things known to have a high potential for causing harm or death to the user.
Islam must be corralled, contained, and then eliminated, by complete embargo of the areas where it is practiced if necessary.

As a former muzlum I hate when I see/read the lies of politicians and media. There is no peace in islum. None!! we are taught to wait quietly, patiently until the time for war/overthrowing/replacing whatever power with sharia and submission. There are no peaceful, nice, great neighbors, quiet, successful, like family, muzlums. Only those waiting til they can rob, rape, steal, torture and subjugate you and especially your children. I would listen in the cairo and hurgadda mosques how they longed for the raping of 6 year old children to begin. Boy or girl is not important. For all the homo condemnation you hear about I say 80% of all muzlum boys have been traded for sex with uncles, grandfathers and friends. until a boy has pubic hair they are ok to sex with. Pray for Jesus to come in their dreams and save them from the satanic hold of power and islum.

The West does NOT need to allow thousands of backward, 7th century, unvetted and violent muslim savages into our countries that have ‘enshrined’ sexual slavery, rape, forced conversion, assault, murder and genocide in their FAKE religion!

In every WESTERN country where Muslims are in the minority, they are obsessed with minority rights.
In every ISLAMIC country with a Muslim majority, …there are no minority rights!

islam is NOT a religion of peace!!
islam is a sick and twisted terrorist ideology that is completely incompatible with western civilization!!

Deport all muslims, CITIZENS OR not, from the west at once!!
Ban all muslims from traveling to the west, …FOREVER
Implement muslim control, NOT gun control.

Defending your person, your family, your country from attack and invasion from those forcing a violent, terrorist, genocidal ideology on western civilization…is …not … islamophobia ….or racist. ….It is just common sense.

The people of Canada, Europe and Britain must throw down their treasonous leaders forcing this evil upon them.

About that “all humanity as one” part. Be careful what you mean. The Muslims want that, too — once the entire world is converted to Islam, all humanity will be one.
And it is not a bad thing to NOT be united, to have separate religions. Judaism recognizes this, and is just fine with each nation having its own religion, so long as they let the Jews practice Judaism. Yet we do not insist that anyone ELSE practice Judaism; Judaism is FOR JEWS. The rest of the world can be good people without having to follow all the Jewish commandments. THAT is the lesson, and the approach, we need to hope Islam can develop.
And there were, and still are, liberal strains in Islam that were willing to move in that direction. The problem, today, is that the 7th-century-fundamentalist Wahhabi sect of Islam promoted by Saudi Arabian-funded madrasas worldwide is displacing more tolerant, local forms of Islam just as surely as Wal-Mart displaces local mom-and-pop stores, wherever it plants itself. The problem is Wahhabist extremism — which is the root of Al Qaeda, ISIS, the Muslim Brotherhood, the Salafists, and every other Sunni extremist group. And the other problem is the bizarro version of Shi’ite Islam preached by the Ayatollah Khomeini that fostered the Iranian revolution, but for the moment that is far more manageable than the Wahhabist takeover of Sunni Muslim education worldwide.
