Islam: The World's Most Dangerous Ideology
Political USA ^ | 29 April 2004 | Dorothy Anne Seese

Posted on 04/29/2004 5:25:28 PM PDT by MegaSilver

The nation of Israel is a nearly sixty year old sore spot in the present-day Middle East, it costs American taxpayers a lot of money to support (billions per year), it's the focus of dispensational Christian theology, but ... Israel can take care of itself. Really. All the US has to do is say "sic 'em" and walk away.

The US has a major problem with its role in the present world conflict because it has a religious underpinning in Islamic theology that has again reared its head. The Ottoman Empire was not defeated in 1918, at the end of World War I. The Arab/Islamic nations simply split up, some being created by Britain and/or the useless League of Nations (predecessor to the useless United Nations) and went on being Islamic nations, Arab or not. The most secularized nation of the former Ottoman Empire, Turkey, underwent massive transitions toward westernization under Ataturk, but Islam is still the primary religion of the people even though Turkey has no state religion. Turkish people are not Arabic in ethnicity, although they have a significant Arab population with a growing pro-Islamic population.

As to the balance of the Middle East, including and focusing on times with the holy cities of Islam Mecca and Medina in Saudi Arabia, Islam is the national religion. But Islamic peoples aren't staying at home.

The migration of the Muslims into England, Ireland, France, Germany and other European nations, including the territory in Spain once occupied by the Moors of North Africa (Islamic people), and into nations in the Western Hemisphere (primarily the United States) the world has an enormous problem with an idelology/religion of conquest and conversion at sword's point.

When the American press speaks of the Arab nations, they are careful to avoid the religious implications lest the jihad or holy war become exposed for what it really is: a worldwide movement by Islam to migrate, settle, acquire wealth and power by numbers, and procede with the Islamic agenda of world domination. "Islamic radicals" is the term used to differentiate actively terrorist Islamics from those who are not yet active.

This just isn't being given the press it deserves because America and Europe are in the "do not offend" mode of classic national stupidity which arrests all preventative action until eventually peaceful resolution is no longer possible and bloodshed occurs. To Islam, the West represents the focus and home base of Christianity regardless of where it was really birthed, in the Middle East. It was in the West that Christianity grew, and both Judaism and Christianity are to Islam mortal enemies to be eradicated.

The US has done its best to appease the Islamics, which includes allowing them to migrate into the US as students or tourists and simply become a part of the population. In any jihad, it is clear that the Islamic beliefs will dominate any alternative course of action on the part of the Muslim population, like neutrality, which would be treason to the cause of Allah.

For the life of me I cannot understand the US policy that I've viewed since the last days of Franklin Delano Roosevelt through the Truman administration and on into the present day, consisting of no-win partial war and grand appeasement of our enemies. To me, the United States is a sovereign nation and can alter its immigration laws as it pleases. Apparently it pleases the leadership of the US to ignore the world ambitions of Islam, since Arab nations sit on the world's major source of oil. If another nation did that, our media would accuse them of selling out their country for profit. A few American writers have expressed that opinion, but fairly quietly.

Islam as a threat to the world around it is over 1400 years old, dating back to the seventh century A.D. By the year 1,000 A.D. the advanced Persian civilization, with medicine, astronomy, advanced mathematics, literature and other marks of civilization was plunged back into the darkest of dark ages by the advance of Islam. Even Omar Khayyam had to flee to Samarkand to avoid the Assassins, which name has been transliterated into the English language. Its origin is in Islam, the name being assigned to hit squads of Muslim "radicals" who carried out a religious contract against any opposition leader or popular figure.

Whether the United States maintains its secular status as a free society for all religious beliefs, which is the sum of the First Amendment religion clause, Islam is not a party to any treaty with either secular or religious nations. It has one doctrine: conquer for Allah. If the American leadership believes it has a bunch of Ataturk clones in the present-day Arab dictators or warlords, it is dead wrong and many Americans are dead in wars with these folks who are so peaceful.

Americans insist on producing and using conventional weapons of warfare, a useless and bloody way to fight an ideology. The early Christians grew under intense persecution, that's the way ideologies are. National wars are fought with conventional weaponry, nation against nation until one surrenders. That is not the course of ideological warfare.

This is not a diatribe designed to spawn hatred of any religion, it is merely an analysis of the times, trends and events that are affecting all our lives and the factors of which the world and the United States must be wary in order to be able to protect what few freedoms we have left (compared to the freedoms our forefathers enjoyed prior to World War I). Americans are notoriously ill-informed when it comes to the various threats to its people and its national security, finding enemies where there is little proof that they exist as such, and not finding enemies in nations or in ideologies that are capable of bringing down our nation and killing millions of our people.

Call it terrorism if you like, certainly the basis of Islam fits the description of terrorism but not every Muslim subscribes to volunteering as a terrorist. At least not willingly. So far, all the terrorists have been Islamic, that doesn't mean they always will be. Nor does the fact that many Muslims are peaceful neighbors mean they always will be. Right now, Islam is still the world's most dangerous ideology. Europeans and Americans need to recognize that publicly and begin to unwind the coils of Islam present in the various Western world's countries. Otherwise, the growth and spread of Islam will continue until it is the world's dominant force. Personally, I think it will be contained prior to that time, but that may only be wishful thinking.

Ya know, Dennis Prager came to speak here at UCSC recently, c/o some local Jewish groups. He is a genius. Anyhoo...he said that he believes 3 worldviews will face off:

1. Islam
2. European Secular Socialism
3. American Judeo-Christian Capitalism

The fate of the world lies on the outcome of this, and the only good outcome would be the victory of good ol' number 3.

Earlier, I wrote a blog on the "how to" of dealing with the threat:

http://megasilver.blog-city.com/

Basically, I suggested that we had two viable options: Crusade or isolationism.

Muslims means of conquest will be less the sword and more abortion and the contraception pill. Their WMD is really Worldwide Migrating Demographics.

Brilliant, it seems that some people are finally beginning to understand what we are up against.

I am however not as optimistic in the final outcome as the author is.

The majority of Americans and Europeans still to this day consider Islam to be merely a religion and have yet to come to the realization that it is in fact something much more sinister.

He's underestimating the role of Asia in the future. There are a number of countries there that will play a more significant role in the future than dead-weights like France and Germany: China, a united Korea, India, Indonesia, Japan, Pakistan. Ideologically, they are not motivated by any of those three that Prager lists. To leave nationalism off the list is ignorant.

Islam is growing, but it would become a lesser option to many over other ideologies, if the woman of Islam spoke up and did something to challenge their men over lack of freedom and respect they receive, compared to woman in other societies.

The woman's revolution in the west, started long ago and has stabilized. Yet not for Islamic countries, where the woman's movement is a ticking time bomb. These woman have a key to the future, even though never discussed seriously by anybody since in most peoples minds the Islamic terrorist are unified and male.

Muslims as a whole are evil people. If they're not out committing terrorist acts, then they're applauding those that do!

Yep. We were just dicussing this on another thread.
www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/1126792/posts?page=11

What's disturbing is watching the Muslim secessionist movement...as they gain strength within various countries, claim a majority and then fight for their so-called independence. Little by little, Islam is transforming the face of this planet...and unfortunately, we in our naivety, have helped and supported them in many of these instances. From Pakistan to Chechnya to Kosovo and the Balkans...this "religion" has been on a perputual Jihad since 622. When I see Canada considering Sharia in their courts or Hamtramck acquiescing to Islam's Call to Prayer...I fear we don't understand this enemy.

I agree that she is telling the total truth with regards to Islam and the goals of the Islamists. But she began with an independent clause in her opening paragraph that was not elaborated upon in the article. I mean it begged for a follow-up.

She states, "The nation of Israel is a nearly sixty year old sore spot in the present-day Middle East, it costs American taxpayers a lot of money to support (billions per year), it's the focus of dispensational Christian theology, but ... Israel can take care of itself. Really. All the US has to do is say "sic 'em" and walk away."

True, but what does Israel have to do with her subject?

Anyway, she's spot on about the Muslim world.

Islam's prophets include Moses and Christ unlike Satan's kids. Beware of Satan and his children to thrust evil upon you and misdirect you. The facts are well known in history.
