That would be true even if Islamist groups seeking to impose it did not exist. Its logic and its path is as absolute as Hitler's creed or Lenin's vision of the perfect society. And Islam leads to beheadings, chopping off of hands and genocide. That is the true nature of the beast.NormanFhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03365459073293643108noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11368628.post-87217125953608149482013-05-22T02:24:58.352-04:002013-05-22T02:24:58.352-04:00Islamism refers to political organizations seeking...Islamism refers to political organizations seeking to impose Islam.<br /><br />Daniel Greenfieldhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13575285186581875356noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11368628.post-28918221007213239892013-05-22T02:19:01.718-04:002013-05-22T02:19:01.718-04:00Daniel,

It seeks to kill us all, reduce us to being their slaves and to take away the freedoms it took centuries for us to acquire. Muslims do not want Western freedoms - in fact just the exact opposite.<br /><br />For that reason alone, democracy and Islam are incompatible. There is no true freedom in the Muslim World - no freedom of religious worship and no freedom of conscience. Dissenters are killed and even eaten! There is no way to meet Islam half way because by nature, Islam is no more moderate than Nazism or Communism was. Take away what defines the essence of Islam and its no longer Islam.<br /><br />Which brings us to another point - the Muslim countries that are secular and reasonably free are dictatorships that completely repress Islam, like the post-Soviet dictatorships in the Central Asian Muslim republics. They understand far better than we do - that free elections hold not the key to freedom but the door to complete tyranny.<br /><br />And yet our Western elites want to force such complete tyranny upon millions of people in the name of democracy. They don't realize that Islam is the exact opposite of Judaism and Christianity. Once Muslim clerics complete the enslavement of their own people and exterminate religious minorities, they will eventually do the same to us.<br /><br />With Islam, there is no true meeting of the minds.Our efforts to appease and accommodate it will only ensure the lights of freedom are extinguished throughout the Western World. We must understand the enemy and his goals before we can defeat him. In short, make no mistake, Islam is the enemy of the open society.<br />That is the challenge of the 21st Century.<br /><br />The older totalitarian ideologies are now only found in the history books but the 1400 year old threat of Islam remains very much with us.NormanFhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03365459073293643108noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11368628.post-40091645217976977872013-05-21T00:16:41.761-04:002013-05-21T00:16:41.761-04:00It took me a while after 9/11 to come to similar c...It took me a while after 9/11 to come to similar conclusions, and I think that is in no small part due to the way that President Bush, and other "compassionate conservatives" (grr), set the tone. Like Obama and his traitorous horde, Bush was intent on making some false distinctions (the ones you clarify here) that have done more to endanger this nation than bin Laden ever did.

Note that after 9/11 the Leftists' solution was to import more lively, vibrant, diverse Moslems into the U.S. <br /><br />I remember that imbecile Bush saying that we needed more Islamic clerics to help us preach non-violence to Moslems in the U.S. This is insane. It is either cowardice or treason. A lot of it is cowardice. The Leftist is a strict materialist with no moral principles to speak of, so when he is confronted by obvious enemies the Leftist lapses into a mental pathology that resembles the Stockholm Syndrome.<br /><br />That also means that the fear must be transferred to a group that is openly hostile to the actual enemies. In other words cowardice among White people must be enshrined into law if the denial of who our enemies are is to be maintained. And notice how desperate the dreaming sheep were to pin the Boston bombings on a White. Notice how that horrific story has faded away now that it is clear that it was a the work of a third-world savage.<br /><br />At a time when terrorism is a 99 percent problem with Islam, the Leftist criminals under the loathsome Holder and Obama define a likely terrorist as a White man who insists on his God-given right to self-defense, to keep most of his money, and who rightly hates the likes of that affirmative-action parasite Obama. <br /><br />I never thought I would live to see that day that our government would be the enemy of its own country and the ally of our enemies. But really it's been going on since the 60s. I tried to deny it, but it's just too obvious.Gould K.L.

The Western ...Wonderful insights and wordsmithing. The Western brain is logical and since Islam is dichotomous, it strains to understand the basis on which Islam can even exist. Another way I've come to appreciate the differences in how we see Islam lived in people and groups is a timing phenomenon. The secular or "moderates" hope eventually the world will be under Allah rule, but they aren't passionate enough to DO anything to bring this specific result today. Those who are often called "radical or extremists" are those impatient ones who believe NOW is the time Allah has instructed them to march forward just like on a battlefield and take ground. <br />I'm concerned that so few see Islam as being the threat. How can we weaken Islam when our petrodollars fuel Wahabbi Islam in 2000+ mosques, our colleges/academia are funded by Saudi Arabia? Demographically, they have taken over sectors of Europe and gained inroads into specific countries governing bodies. And to our shame, the same has begun on US soil. Militarily, the USA has been castrated by Obama and the purposeful Muslim sympathies are obvious in every strategy he creates. <br />I don't see how we can beat Islam; i believe it is the Antichrist regime and it will require Jesus and heavens armies to defeat. <br />Thanks for your courage and wisdom to fight such a monster as Islam.
