The WHY? of Terrorism in Islam
I am an American living in Asia. I am not Moslem, but I am a writer and historian. I would like to share some information with you: information concerning Moslem terrorism, and why the United States, its military forces, and its intelligence services must continue to be vigilant, and when appropriate, respond to Islamic terrorism with relentless, overwhelming, and deadly force.
This information may help you understand what is going on not only in India, Pakistan, and China, as well as other parts of Asia, but also the Middle East, as well as Africa, Europe, and even the United States. In the not too distant future, Moslem extremists intend to involve you and your loved ones, as well as a vast number of other innocent victims in a man-made catastrophe: an organized and violent calamity of biblical proportions that is based on teachings taken from the Koran.
Disregarding the social, economic, and political factors that serve as underpinnings for Islamic terrorism, I will address the more fundamental issue: the religious teachings that sanction violence against non-Moslems and against women. Here are seven verses from the Koran. These scriptures have been translated into modern English.
…murder, crucify, or cut off the hands and feet of non-Moslems…Chapter 5 Verse 33 - The Koran
…create terror in the hearts of non-Moslems …cut off their heads…Chapter 8 Verse 12- The Koran
…and fight non-Moslems until Allah’s religion is the only one…Chapter 8 Verse 39- The Koran
…of all the loot you plunder from non-Moslems, 20% belongs to Allah and to Mohammed. Chapter 8 Verse 41- The Koran(Author’s note: Loot included kidnapped female sex-slaves.)
…Take as many as four wives from the women you are sexually attracted to …Chapter 4 Verse 3 - The Koran
…God has made men superior to women… Virtuous women are obedient. If a woman becomes disobedient, beat her. Chapter 4 Verse 34 - The Koran
…When it comes to marriage, Allah makes it legal for you to take as wives, women whom your right hand possesses. Chapter 33 Verse 50 - The Koran (Author’s note: This verse talks about the “loot” non-Moslems call… kidnapped female sex-slaves.)
Most people in the western world have never heard of these astonishing scriptures, but they are in the Koran … along with a relatively short list of others, just like them. This is important because not all Moslems are the same; there are two very different types. Militant Moslems view these verses as commandments from their god – a violent, primitive god. They think these teachings apply to life in the Twenty-first Century and they try to use them, regardless of the suffering and mayhem they create, whereas moderate Moslems ignore such verses because they were uttered a long time ago: when the Arabian peninsula, from whence Islam came, was a wild and savage place.
Historians tell us these terrorist teachings are part of a cluster of ferocious beliefs that were deliberately added to one specific part of the formerly peaceful and tolerant Koran. These changes were done decades after the faith was first organized.
In fact, historians also tell us Islam didn’t simply fall from the sky as a full-blown religion, but rather evolved from a persecuted sect of Jewish-Christians. The first Moslems were actually part of a larger group of Jesus’ followers called the Ebionites.
Ebionites were peace-loving disciples of Christ, who shared their wealth with fellow believers, and taught that a man should marry only one wife. In fact, women were much more independent in the Ebionite Jewish-Christian days of Islam. They were more influential too. I say this because my research has determined that the first prophet of Islam may have been someone other than Mohammed: I believe the first prophet was a very special Arabian princess named Khadija the Pure. Khadija was Mohammed’s first and only wife for twenty-four years. Khadija was fifteen years older than Mohammed. She was considered to be fabulously wealthy, and she was Mohammed’s employer.
Mohammed on the other hand, before he became Khadija’s employee, was an impoverished youth who had been raised as an orphan. Ultimately Mohammed worked his way up to a position as Khadija’s business manager. Eventually Khadija grew fond of Mohammed. Khadija asked Mohammed to marry her! Even though Khadija had already converted to Christianity, throughout her lifetime Mohammed’s first and only wife for twenty-four years remained an influential Arabian princess in the ruling family that controlled worship in the Kabba Temple, with it’s pantheon of more than three hundred pagan gods and goddesses. Clearly, Khadija was a person of great influence in Arabian society. www.TheMoslemInstitute.com
After Khadija’s death, Islam was hijacked by a cartel of corrupt men, headed by Mohammed himself. New beliefs were added to the Koran, old beliefs were deleted or relegated to unimportance, and the religion was changed beyond recognition. In the end, Islam abandoned many of its Ebionite Jewish-Christian teachings and turned cruel and predatory; women suffered the most: they became the focus of repression, scorn, and violence.
Today, although moderate Moslems are loath to admit these ideas, and many of them are terrified to voice criticism of their militant Islamic brothers, because of fear that violence will come to them and their families, the fact remains that these added teachings are not the original beliefs of Islam; they are amendments: They are the terrorist teachings of Islam.
In the near future, militant Moslems hope to unleash a Jihad: a Moslem holy war upon the non-Moslem world: especially the United States and Western Europe. Because the terrorist teachings of Islam sanction deception, treaty breaking, and war, as well as looting, murder, kidnapping, terrorism, and human slavery (including sexual slavery), so long as these crimes are directed against non-Moslems, there is no limit to the things these fanatics can do. But the scariest part: Militant Moslems will do everything… in the name of god. During this violent holy war, these fanatics believe Allah will grant them harems of kidnapped sex slaves taken from destroyed cities and nations, as well as enormous fortunes of loot plundered from the non-Moslem world. The Koran says, ransoms paid to Moslem terrorists, to redeem stolen property, and kidnapped men, women, and children, are part of the Islamic loot these vicious criminals are entitled to. Islamic Law given in the Koran even allows Moslem men to force their kidnapped female sex slaves to marry them in Moslem wedding ceremonies: whether the women want to or not.
If the Moslem fanatics die while committing these crimes against humanity, they believe Allah will admit them to paradise and bless them luxurious palaces filled with seventy-two virgin brides, as an eternal reward for their cruel deeds.
With that said, it is important to remember that the majority of Moslems are moderate, decent people, who recognize such teachings as obsolete and out of place in the Twenty-first Century. In spite of enormous cultural and ideological differences that exist between the Judeo-Christian world and the Islamic world, in the author's opinion, it is with this moderate Moslem majority that any long-term resolution to the Islamic terrorism issue will ultimately be negotiated.
However, given the massive population increases taking place in the Moslem world, at a time when poverty, chaos, criminality, and religious fanaticism are burgeoning, the numbers of Moslems worldwide who declare themselves militant is increasing; the influence their growing networks of terrorist cells exert on Islamic governments throughout the world has reached crisis levels. A great deal of violence and death looms ahead of the non-Moslem world; the attacks on Mumbai, India, the World Trade Center in New York, and the subway bombings in Spain and England are simply previews of things to come. In this ferocious Jihad, nuclear and biological weapons could ultimately come into play. To paraphrase Winston Churchill, the road before us will be long and dangerous; the United States and Europe must be resolute… and take courage. The survival of our civilization depends on it.

Q: Why are most terrorist attacks in the world comprised of Muslims killing Muslims?
Hmmm I’m more concerned with the WHAT as in WHAT do we drop on their heads, nuke? daisycutter? etc.
Answer ...because they never care about their people, they only (pretend to) "care" when they can use it against the infidels.
thanks, bfl
I believe there was no written Arabic at the time of Muhammad and the Kuran was first written down in Syriac. In its transposition to Arabic much was lost and much was added. Please correct me if I am wrong.
Moderate Muslims are considered apostate by the pure Islamists, and worse than Infidels.
“The first Moslems were actually part of a larger group of Jesus’ followers called the Ebionites.
comments?”
Wouldn’t surprise me. Mohammedanism is often thought of as a particularly successful Christian heresy.
Cronos: comments?
I disagree. A group identified as Ebionites were not Muslims. Their last mention is circa 5th century, about 200 years prior to the emergence of Islam. They were Jesus followers in the Old Covenant sense, i.e. they considered Jesus a Jewish messiah, a mortal human being anointed by God (and hence "son of God," a title used for anointed Jewish kings, and the angels). The Ebionites followed strictly the Jewish Law, and represent the so-called Judaiziers whom the Ealry Church Fathers condmened as heretics.
Whether some of them later on joined Mohammad and his followers is a matter of speculation, not fact. If they did they would have had to stop observing the Law, and cease being Jewish, which they refused all along, so it's not very likely.
I’ve never heard of the Ebionites, but I think the original quote says the first Moslems were part of the Ebionites, that is: a subset of them; as if to say the first Moslems came out of or from the Ebionites.
This is quite different than saying the Ebionites were Moslems.
The probelm of "Judiaziers" continued for centuries and the Pauline Church fought them to the bitter end. For one, they denied the divinity of Jesus because it is incompatible with Judaism. Secondly, they opposed all newly invented Christian feasts. This only intensified after Jamnia (c. 90 AD), when Judaism and Christianity even officially parted ways. Their presence loomed for centuries; this is documented by homilies such as the famous set of them by +John Chrysostom.
The Church of Jerusalem was destroyed after +James was stoned to death by the Jews as a "lawbreaker." His followers, the Ebionites, continued until the crushing of the earl 2nd century Jewish revolt and exodus form Palestine.
Many believe that an Arian priest had crucial influence on Mohammad, but that could have been an Ebionite priest instead because Ebionites shared some of the Christological heresy base with Arians and Gnostics. Again, for Ebionites to become Muslims (Islam appears in the 7th century), they would have had to renounce their Judaism, and would have to stop following Jesus as their messiah, which they were not willing to do. So, I seriously doubt that some of them eventually became Muslims, because that would require renouncing Judaism and Christ as their messiah.
“There were a lot of Nestorians and others in the area.”
Yup, especially Nestorians.
I don’t remember, but weren’ there a few scattered Arians of the non Gothic type down there? I have often thought that Islam took some from that also.
“I don’t remember, but weren’ there a few scattered Arians of the non Gothic type down there?”
There certainly were; mostly merchants of one sort or another. There were a group if indigenous Arabians who worshipped the Theotokos as a goddess too; all sorts of weird, heretical Christian offshoots down there. Mix that with Judaism and Arab paganism and you get...Mohammedanism! In many ways, Mohammedanism and Mohammedan are the classic examples of what +John Chrysostomos meant when he wrote:
“The desire to rule is the mother of heresies.”
Arabic existed 400 years prior to Islam. It was seldom written until the time of Muhammad, and he wrote the Koran in classical (old) Arabic, which is very different from modern Arabic.
Nestorian Christianity was big in the Gulf region (what is now the UAE, Bahrain, and Qatar). There are Nestorian monasteries on the island of Sir Bani Yas off the coast of Abu Dhabi, and before Islam, Bahrain was inhabited by Nestorian Christians.
