Is it Racist to Criticize Islam?
Citizen Warrior ^ | 7 Apr 15 | Unknown

Is Ayaan Hirsi Ali a racist? She was born in Somalia, from which she escaped to avoid an arranged marriage, and she eventually became a member of Parliament in the Netherlands.

She helped produce a film with Theo Van Gogh which criticized Islam's treatment of women. Van Gogh was shot to death by a Muslim in retaliation, and a note was pinned to his chest with a knife — a note that threatened Ayaan Hirsi Ali.

She made her way to the United States, and has since written two books critical of Islam:

Islam isn’t a race. That’s like asking if it’s racist to hate Cadillacs.

I didn't realize that islam is a race. I thought it was a “religion”. Or a political ideology.

Muzzies threaten anyone who criticizes Islam. They are the enemy in our midst & if they make good on their threat then flesh needs to be cut.

Sick of these people!

Merely posing that question is an exercise in self censorship and crippling political correctness.

Is it Racist to Criticize Islam?

A better question is, "Who the hell cares?"

People who are so concerned about labels make slaves of themselves to those who would label them.

I say, "Islam is not a religion, it's a cult!", and someone says, "That's racist!", I'm supposed to shut up and go hide?

Screw that!

Accusations of “racism” have long been used by the left to “argue”: “shut up”.

And they keep using it, and will keep using it, until it ceases working.

Is chopping people’s head off racist? or just a cultural misunderstanding?

See, you don’t get it.

In the lexicon of the Left, racism has little to do with ancestry.

To the Left, you are a racist hater if you criticize anything or anyone that’s different than you.

Their language is very different than ours. It’s part of the reason what they say makes so little sense to us.

Not that it would make much sense even if we did speak the same language.

Far too many Muslims believe in death to apostates (e.g., a majority in Pakistan) for it to be other than a cult.

It’s racist to attend a “white sale”, or to get up on the starboard side of your bed....and the list just keeps getting sillier from there on.
