When did Taqiyah become de facto policy of the left?
Benicia Herald ^ | April 23, 2015 | Dennis Lund

Posted on 04/25/2015 7:49:31 AM PDT by Michael.SF.

Taqiyah: The practice of concealing one’s beliefs and foregoing ordinary religious duties when under threat of death or injury. — www.thereligionofpeace.com/Quran/011-taqiyya.htm IN THE ISLAMIC FAITH, deception, either Taqiyah or Kitman — in Islamic jurisprudence, the art of making ambiguous or deceptive statements — is permitted under certain very specific circumstances.

It is the political form of Taqiyah to which I refer when I say that such lying without embarrassment or repercussion has become a too-often-used tool — indeed, the de facto policy — of the left.

Several recent examples serve to confirm this:

Lying has been common in politics since dirt.

When the Left and the DNC found there was
NO MORE ACCOUNTABILITY, it became ubiquitous.

I was going to say that I noticed it first in the 1970s. I also noticed girls for the first time in the '70s.

Sadly too many Americans might answer “A New Toyota?”...when asked if they know anything about Taqiyya

A TAQIYYA PRESIDENT?

By David Meir-Levi On January 19, 2012 In Daily Mailer,FrontPage

http://www.frontpagemag.com/2012/david-meir-levi/taqiyya-vs-our-president/

In a previous essay, the present writer exposed the concept of “taqiyya” as a traditional Muslim form of deceit employed by Yasir Arafat, Mahmoud Abbas, and other leaders of the Arab terror war against Israel. El-Qaeda and the Muslim Brotherhood also are using taqiyya against the USA and other western countries, and with frightening success.
While the Qur’an encourages honesty between believers (Sura 40:28), deception directed at non-Muslims, generally known in Arabic as taqiyya, has full Qur’anic support.

Postmodernists doubt that an accurate account of the past is possible because they blur the difference between fact and fiction. Some even claim that all historical accounts are fiction.Also, they believe that truth and knowledge are nothing other than claims to power. Postmodernists are crusaders for those that they think are oppressed or victims, and they believe that it is acceptable to rewrite history and make up fictions in order to further their agenda.

Foucault wrote in the 60's and 70's.Derrida in the 60's.Lyotard in the 70's.Rorty in the 70's,80's,and 90's.

As soon as they stared serving the Father of Lies. He is also the Father of Taqiyah and islam itself.

Taqiyah is diametrically opposed to Biblical teaching as we see in the book of Daniel. “Oh king, God is able to save us from the fire, but if He does not, we STILL will not bow down to your golden idol.”

It has always been the policy of the Left. As Rush says: “They can’t tell the truth.”

In fact, it’s the policy of virtually all politicians. The RINOs are as bad as the Democrats.

When did taqqiya become the policy of the Left? When did it not? The ends justify the means, eh?

Generally concur. It was practiced before but the left took off all restraints in the 60s as they took over colleges, the media, and the courts. There is a revolution going on which uses propaganda to accomplish the desired political end, Marxism. The only way to combat this is truth. But the left has a virtual strangle hold on all avenues of information distribution. Soon the left will shut down the voices of truth on the Internet. Then there will be no avenue for truth in the media.
