'Jihadists Are Not Terrorists'

This is rather nice -- but of course most of those who call themselves mujahedin are anything but peaceful, gentle and law-abiding. From The Analyst of Monrovia, with thanks to A Thinker:

The Missionary in charge of the Ahmaddiya Muslim Mission in Liberia, Mr. Muhammad Akram Bajwah said that Jihadists of the Islamic Faith are not terrorists, but peaceful, gentle, and law-abiding people.

Mr. Bajwah noted that Jihadist faith, which is mainly practiced by the Palestinians, is part of the Muslim Faith that is only considered to be most violent group in the Muslim Faith. They believe that Prophet Muhammad, the True Messenger of Allah (God) that through him they can live with God in eternity.

Mr. Bajwah, who is head of the mission in Liberia, noted that the reason most people believe that those who practice the Islamic Faith are terrorists is simply because known acts of the terrorism are from the Middle East countries like Palestine, Iraq or countries where they are strongly established.

Does Mr. Muhammad Akram Bajwah also sell bridges and swamp land?

Well, truth to be told the Ahmaddiya are about as violent as Quakers. The interesting thing is to see this guy claiming the Ahmaddiya to be as valid a sect of Islam as the jihadis. There is virtually no other sect of Islam that considers the Ahmaddiya to be remotely valid Muslims, primarily because they claim the Ahmaddiya don't give Mohammed his proper due as the last prophet. Suggest to a supposedly tolerant guy like Stephen Schwartz that the Ahmaddiya are Muslims and he gets his fur up in a way he doesn't even for the evil, ROP-hijacking Wahhabis.

Of course, the Ahmaddiya could possibly become violent if they became big enough to wield some real power.

The most distressing thing about this constant stream of absolute lies from the usual (plus the odd unusual) Islamic sources is not in the incredible blatancy of their lies but in the frenzied desire that many westerners, including those in government, show to believe this trash.

Rather like the lies pouring out of Iran about the Holocaust by leaders of the religion which has killed probably 100x more people than Hitler and Stalin ever did and besides who. make the Chinese Communists of the 50s and the Khemer rouge, look like amateurs.

Islam has been censoring the truth and lying to the whole world since before Muhammad died as he himself justified this action. God only knows how much truth they have destroyed along with he 60,000 churches. Thye have to lie to cover up their 1500 years of pillage, rape and murder.

However,you can hardly blame the indoctrinated moronic muslim masses for believing in this bulsh*t as what choice do they have? Since Big Brother Muhammad is always watching and always telling them what to believe..

But when western "intellectuals" (I would love to find out just how you earn this title...is it a function of gullibility, stupidity or gross intellectual arrogance?) re-iterate it as a self proven proof because someone, who purports to be a religious leader, says so, it makes me wonder how we ever pulled civilisation out of the morass that groups like islam left it in.

You can expect nothing but historical revisionism and other lies from Islam but we deserve to be put under Sharia law if we elect
"leaders" and allow businessmen who both believe and pander to the purveyors of such crap.

Whatever happened to intellectual honesty and a regard for both factual and historical truth in the west?

The mere fact that anyone dared to even print this crap is an indictment.(yes i know it did come from Monrovia that hothouse of african "Liberiaism")

Ahmadi missionaries for their brand of not-quite-kosher Islam have an extensive program in sub-Saharan Africa. Because the Ahmadi sect was were founded by someone in the last century who claimed the status of Prophet, of course they cannot be regarded as full or real Muslims by other Muslims. And the Ahmadis are, it is true, less violent, less aggressive, less given to the Jihad, than the non-Ahmadi, "real" Muslims.

What happens, then, is this. The Ahmadis spread their cult in black Africa. Their peaceful ways, along with the Total Explanation of the Universe, finds favor. They are relatively mild, and a relaxed syncretism at first prevails. But then, along come those bad old Saudi missionaries, and they have the money, and the power, and now those "Ahmadi" Muslims are transformed, little by little, into -- the other kind.

It is not a deliberate bait-and-switch. It is just what has been happening. That is why even the most seemlingly sweetness-and-light brand of Islam, if it opens a mental or emotional breach within communities formerly animist or Christian, through which breach come rushing after the sinister Wahhabis, as they have been, is such a danger.

Most likely Ahmadi Islam got its start in the perception, once the British had established themselves, that there was something wrong with Islam, something that needed to be fixed. Some Muslims in India, not wishing of course to drop Islam altogether, found the solution, such as it was, in flocking to this latest version of an attempt, given the obvious superiority of the Western ways and rulers, to rescue Islam by modifying it. Unfortunately, like all the attempts by some to reform Islam in the period 1880-1940 or so, it came to nothing. Islam remains -- Islam. And the hostility of almost all Muslims to the Adhadis remains as well. But nonetheless, it is they who because of their seeming sweet-reasonableness and mildness, manage to make certain areas safe for Islam -- including the Wahhabi version that finds the mental ground already prepared, the idea of Islam accepted, the people already calling themselves "Muslims" and thus, in many cases, susceptible to being transformed.

A dangerous one-two. Not intentional. The Ahmadis are not there to soften up the Infidels. But that is exactly the effect of what they are doing.

Excerpt

A large number of immigrants formally apply for political asylum in their new countries, giving them the right to a legal review that can take years. Others destroy their identity documents, making it difficult for authorities to determine their nationality. Many come from predominantly Muslim countries like Morocco, Pakistan and Afghanistan where jihadis committed to waging holy war against the West are active. This sentiment has grown in ferocity since the United States and Britain invaded Iraq two years ago, according to analysts and enforcement agents.

"There is clear, unmistakable evidence that the level of terrorist activity that has killed and injured people has soared to unprecedented levels since we invaded Iraq," said Larry Johnson, a former CIA agent and State Department counter-terrorism specialist now working in the private sector. "Iraq is creating a new generation of jihadis looking for places to live in Europe," Johnson said, "and they have this festering resentment that is usually at the core of terrorism. They will take up residence with existing communities or form new ones in Europe. "It doesn't augur for a great future."

Scary stuff. We've already seen some of the fruits of this, with the bombings in London and Madrid. As the piece makes clear, European leaders are finally awakening to the problem. It may, however, to be too late to undo the damage.

Not so. With our media and, therefore, our public discourse put under an official lock-down on anything negative towards Islam, how is the population supposed to know?

I am becoming increasingly upset with anti-swine prejudice in here.

One day, when the bloodbath starts, you'll be wishing you had a few good old fashioned hogs snorting around your ankles as a safety measure. A friend in a jam and after that a thick slice of ham.

Does Mr. Muhammad Akram Bajwah also sell bridges and swamp land? LOL

Be sure to get his book on the Nazi's titled:

"Hitler was only trying to help"

Muhammad Akram Bajwah said that "Jihadists of the Islamic Faith are not terrorists, but peaceful, gentle, and law-abiding people".

If this lund says this and claims to be an Ahmadi then he is lying or does not agree/understand with the core values of the Ahmadi. I can tell you that Ahmadis are some of the most gentle and sweetest people you can meet.

I know that the Ahmadi are trying to grow (over 10million) but there has to be some sort of "quality control". I think that it is extremely dangereous to recruit Ahmadis from "cannon fodder" who do not understand the essence of Ahmadi Islam and make this kind of nonsense statement.

For Bajwah to say this shows me that he has no idea of the core values of the Ahmadi.

I agree with some of the postees here that they will pollute the sweet smell and fragrance of the Ahmadi. One bloody event and we will be lumped in with the rest and lose our "special status".

I worry about Ahmadi particularly who are not from South Asia.....particularly from African communities whose short fuses simply cannot prepare them for "Ahmadiship" (for want of a better word).

May Allah (swt) protect & keep the special status of the Ahmadis safe.

The Ahmadi dream is just one more sandcastle that is bound to be destroyed by the rising tide of Islam.

APF - I gotta ask, are you really a pig farmer?

Good cop, bad cop. I won't play that game.

For a while, it was the sufis, oh yeah, the
peaceful sufis, writing mystical bull!@#$ tinged
with that Oriental flavor that fluff brained
self hating Westerners love to eat up.

Now that we know that dog won't hunt, someone comes
up with the Ahmadis. More BS.

I don't think the Bahai consider themselves
Muslims, right? So they're not koran-centric.

"Jihadists are not terrorists."

And pigs have wings.

And Islam is a religion of peace.

al-Taqqiya? Or stand up comedy?

I can't decide which.

Sure, and killing innocent people isn't really murder if you do it in the name of "allah".

American-

Bullseye!

The tired old "good cop/bad cop" soft shoe it is.

"Nobody in here but us chickens!" emanating from the coop used to be a cynical punchline. Now its a religious dogma.

Good shooting, bro!

Nevertheless, the Hakawis are peace loving Indians.

Really.

I saw it on TV.
