The Islam Catastrophe Continues
Dianawest.net ^ | February 27, 2017 | Diana West

Posted on 03/02/2017 2:45:26 PM PST by No One Special

Former FBI special agent John Guandolo has written a strong and sobering essay at his website, UnderstandingTheThreat, called "Unfit for Duty." It argues that two senior Trump administration officials, HR McMaster and Sebastian Gorka, are "catastrophically wrong" in their assessment of Islam as publicly stated and that this is "leading America down a disastrous road towards defeat."

I agree. However, the problem is much, much larger than that.

It is true that the statements (excerpted below) of both men serve to sever the logical, in fact, blatant connections between Islam and what I will call Hot Jihad (terrorism, war) and Cold Jihad (the imposition of Islamic law and customs through migration into Western democracies, also Hot Jihad). Both are components of the age-old design of Islamic conquest. With regard to Sebastian Gorka, a friend and strong supporter of American Betrayal back in the day, it grieves me to have to say so, but I have to say so.

It is also true that this catastrophically wrong assessment of Islam is by no means unique to these two men. I wish it were. I know of no one in the US government or military who has a realistic view of Islam -- that is, a view derived from the study of authoritative Islamic texts and centuries of jihad and dhimmitude. None. Donald Trump the candidate actually came the closest, but, as president, he appears to be enveloped by the "establishment," which actually thinks Al Qaeda, or AQI, or AQIM, or AQAP, or the Taliban or ISIS or the next regrouping thousands of miles and oceans and deserts away is the main threat to these United States -- not the government's outsourcing of our understanding of Islam to jihad-affiliates; not the incursion of sharia into US finance; not the tranches of Islamic money subverting US education; not the seeding of mosques, generously funded by Islamic governments, throughout America to establish the sharia (Islamic law) for still-burgeoning Muslim immigrant and refugee populations. Houses of worship, only? Then why do more than 80 percent of mosques in America disseminate violent materials?

But I digress.

I haven't been writing as much about Islam of late -- I've written it all so many times over. It's not rocket science. Still, for old times' sake, I will mention again something that I think is pretty key: even Donald Trump's big, bad term, "radical Islamic terrorism," is but a riff on the old "tiny band of extremists" routine -- and, worse, a not-too-distant cousin of the "violent extremism" non-sense.

How can that be? All three terms, even as they seem to orginate on three different points of the political spectrum, depend on the exact same fantasy: that there exists some non-radical, non-extreme, non-violent "Islam," a peaceable and anodyne faith with texts and laws and a godhead that are separate and unrelated to jihad violence and conquest, Islamic supremacism and dhimmitude, and, more dangerous still, that are compatible, and, indeed, basically interchangeable with the Christianisty and Judaism of Western society.

This. Is. Not. True.

"Violent extremism" divorces jihad violence from Islam entirely, which is non-sense.

"Tiny band of extremists" divorces jihad violence from an imaginary Islam that is non-extreme.

"Radical Islamic terrorism" does exactly the same thing: If terrorism is the product of "radical" Islam then there must be some plain-Jane and non-radical-Islam that is perfectly ok.

But it doesn't exist! Islam is radical. Islam is extreme. So be it.

As Turkey's Erdogan so memorably put it, "Islam is Islam and that's it."

Donald Trump the candidate appeared to have an innate understanding of the dangerous radicalism of Islam itself, as well as the threat to our liberties posed by the import of Islamic violence and, more dangerous, sharia culture. He discussed this on the hustings. I can only hope he falls back on his own instincts again and seeks new knowledgable and experienced experts. I will gladly provide a list -- starting with veteran intelligence officer Stephen C. Coughlin, and former DHS official/whistleblower Philip Haney.

Meanwhile, here are some relevant excerpts from John Guandolo's essay.

The future must not belong to those who deny the true nature if Islam

John Quincy Adams on Islam

In the seventh century of the Christian era, a wandering Arab of the lineage of Hagar, the Egyptian, combining the powers of transcendent genius, with the preternatural energy of a fanatic, and the fraudulent spirit of an impostor, proclaimed himself as a messenger from Heaven, and spread desolation and delusion over an extensive portion of the earth. Adopting from the sublime conception of the Mosaic law, the doctrine of one omnipotent God; he connected indissolubly with it, the audacious falsehood, that he was himself his prophet and apostle. Adopting from the new Revelation of Jesus, the faith and hope of immortal life, and of future retribution, he humbled it to the dust, by adapting all the rewards and sanctions of his religion to the gratification of the sexual passion. He poisoned the sources of human felicity at the fountain, by degrading the condition of the female sex, and the allowance of polygamy; and he declared undistinguishing and exterminating war, as a part of his religion, against all the rest of mankind. THE ESSENCE OF HIS DOCTRINE WAS VIOLENCE AND LUST: TO EXALT THE BRUTAL OVER THE SPIRITUAL PART OF HUMAN NATURE.

Between these two religions, thus contrasted in their characters, a war of twelve hundred years has already raged. That war is yet flagrant; nor can it cease but by the extinction of that imposture, which has been permitted by Providence to prolong the degeneracy of man. While the merciless and dissolute dogmas of the false prophet shall furnish motives to human action, there can never be peace upon earth, and good will towards men. The hand of Ishmael will be against every man, and every man’s hand against him. It is, indeed, amongst the mysterious dealings of God, that this delusion should have been suffered for so many ages, and during so many generations of human kind, to prevail over the doctrines of the meek and peaceful and benevolent Jesus (Blunt, 1830, 29:269, capitals in orig.).

True is acts and does what it’s _true_ one and only _prophet_, Mohammed did. Those not doing as Mohammed did will be slaughtered by those who are, in time.
If you are about to be captured by Moslems, do NOT surrender: Mohamed slaughtered all prisoners of war.
It always was, is and will be a fight to the death. Peaceful conquest until they have enough residents, then violence and threats, finally their sword.
Yes, some Moslems are peaceful: not following their religion according to its law and its prophet.

HOLD EVERYTHING------did you know there is a Congressional Muslim Staff Association on Capitol Hill?

Only one line on wiki: The Congressional Muslim Staff Association (CMSA) is a non-partisan, bicameral organization that strives to improve the institution of Congress by serving Muslim staffers on Capitol Hill and create a pipeline for young Muslims who aspire to serve their country.

Come again? Serve "their country." Their country would be .....?????

==================================

This is scary.

Congressional Muslim staff (cough) serve their country.

The Pittsburgh FBI field office (Cyber-security Unit) is trying to identify those behind breaches of the DNC's computer systems. The 2015 and early 2016 breaches exposed the internal communications of Democrat party officials as the convention got underway........

The FBI needs to look into the Muslim Brothers Imran, Abid, and Jamal Awan and Imram's wife Hina Alvi.

The Muslim brothers (Imram here) seemed to be monitoring the Clintons.
It's very odd to see a Capitol Hill staffer get that close to a bigshot Clinton.

The Muslim brothers are currently being described as three sketchy, rogue intel staffers that compromised House Intelligence, and Foreign Affairs Committee Members.:

Abi Awan, Imran Awan and Jamal Awan, are three brothers, foreign nationals who worked within the IT department for members of the House Permanent Intelligence Committee and ere apparently responsible for a security breach on Capitol Hill........including that of Cong Debbie asserman Schultz----the DNC chair.

There is a fourth brother and his Muslim wife involved in sensitive political IT....all share a residence.

THE FBI NEEDS TO DETERMINE:

<><> Extent of DNC assistance to the three members of the intelligence panel and five members of the House Committee on Foreign Affairs who were among the dozens of elected members employing the suspects on a shared basis.

<><>Were govt intel computers ever transported off-premises?

<><>Did the FBI and/or Secret Service accompany and supervise the transport of the server?

<><> Did the three brothers have an active email account?

<><> Was there continuity of intel computer activity or did the intel computers ever go off-line?

<><> Who received govt intel?

<><>Did the three brother get officially qualified by the DNC to handle national-security-level data?

<><> Did the three brothers ever “upgrade, manage, and secure” the DNC server.

<><> What - specifically - did they do?

<><> Did the DNC vet the three brothers security clearance to handle this type of intel?

<><> What were the DNC firewall protocols in place at the time?

<><>Who, by name, had access to intel computers, and the administrative authorization to do so?

<><>When was that authorization given?

<><>Did the three brothers ever remove all data from the intel computers?

<><> Was malware or antivirus also on the server?

<><> Was the inherent firewall, virus protection, or operating system “upgraded, managed, and secured” by the brothers?

<><> Did the DNC report any incidents reported such as DOS attack, hacking, etc. How were they resolved?

<><> Did the three brothers maintain the DNC intel computer?

<><> Does the DNC know if the House Permanent Intelligence Committee computers in functioning condition at this time?

<><> Does the DNC have the work schedule of the brothers just prior to being outed for security breaches?

<><> Were normal and regular backup procedures executed on the server?

<><> Where are the back-ups kept?

<><> If no backups were taken, does the DNC have a disaster recovery location? Where is that?

<><> Did the DNC have a backup plan if the House Permanent Intelligence Committee plan intel equipment failed or was found to have been compromised?

<><> Does the DNC list other foreign nationals (from countries President Obama identified as terrorist countries) employed on Capitol Hill?

<><> The DNC should list foreign nationals by name and country who currently have access to US intel and are using govt computers.

Gen McMasters is IMHO not addressing the problem of Islam itself. And he is the worst choice Pres. Trump has made so-far.

On the other hand I believe Gorka has the right take on the Islamic problem and threat imposed to us Kafirs, but like the author I am dismayed by Gorka using radical in front of Islamic terrorism.

The parsing of words by Gorka I hope is because Islam has so many heretics who won't follow the religion the way Muhammad did and these heretics and Islamic traitors are helping us fight against the Muslim fundamentalists.
Gorka might be afraid that directly attacking Islam might cause these Muslim heretics to rethink Islam, and come to the correct Islamic conclusion they should not be killing fundamental Muslims who follow the examples of Muhammad, but should be killing us Kafirs instead.
We need these useful heretical idiots to help us Kafirs out. - Tom

I believe Gen McMasters is a poor choice but I believe Gorka is on the right track but doesn't want to state the obvious which to me is; if you are a Muslim and in any way support us Kafirs you are not doing what Allah and Muhammad want done.

And if you are out killing fundamental Muslims , instead of joining them in their battle against the Kafirs, you are heretics and are going to hell with those Kafirs. -Tom

Trump’s first pick for security chief was the right one.

That is why the Babylonian State set out to destroy him.

McMaster is one of the Babylonians.

W is apparently back in charge.

All Islam must be expunged from the US; there is no middle ground.

Islam is not a “Religion of Peace.”

Islam is not religion in any way. It is a violent political ideology of total conquest through war and terror.

Seems most folks suffer from Islamophilia, a term I heard on a YouTube video, that is defined as a love of all things Islamic by people who know nothing about Islam.

People judge based on their own condition and so, assume that Islam has the same basic tenants as Christianity and Judaism.

They have no idea of the differences between the Medina and Mecca verses of the Koran. They have no idea of the concept of abrogation and how the Koran is written in such a way to make it hard to determine what verse abrogates what other verse. They have no idea of the Islamic concept of “Taqiyya”, and they have no idea that Islam has THREE books, Koran, Hadith, and Shaira that govern it.

But they do know that there is nothing to fear and that all cultures and religions are equal.

“... realistic view of Islam — that is, a view derived from the study of authoritative Islamic texts”

Unlike Christianity which has only one holy book needed to understand everything about the religion, Islam has five. One the koran points in a direction, but the specifics are held within the Hadiths and sunnahs. All five must be read for a basic knowledge of what Islam is or is not.

For those that find this too much reading, one book (which closely follows these five) is Mein Kamph by everyone’s perennial favorite: Adolph Schicklgruber.

Hadiths and sunnahs chronicle the life and sayings of Mohammad are “Talibari”, “Muslim”, “Isaq” and “Bukhari”

Hadiths are Mohammad’s word to his followers; the Sunnahs are the history of Muhammad and his motto (sic) was “Kill, kill, kill”

Good post Sergio.

I felt I had an edge in studying Islam because I am an Agnostic and don't have to compare it to any religious beliefs.
Islam is what it is, and anyone who says it is a religion of peace is ignorant of Islam's basic tenets.

Muslims believe there is only one God and Muhammad is His prophet.
Muhammad is the perfect man and you follow Muhammad's examples on how Allah wants the religion followed by Muslims.

You can find Allah's words in the Koran and Muhammad's examples on how to implement Allah's desires in the Hadiths. -tom
