Fear of Islam can be treated, cured

Dr. Adel Eldin is "a Hernando County cardiologist and leader in the Muslim community" there. In this piece in the St. Petersburg Times (thanks to all who sent this in) he manifests deep denial about Islamic terrorism, and the resulting "Islamophobia."

Let the world know, American Muslims strongly condemn terrorism and all terrorists, whoever they are and wherever they may be. We love our country and are very proud to be American and Muslim.

Taking a scientific approach to the problem, first we should diagnosis it, then treat it.

The Diagnosis: The disease called Islamophobia (or fear of Islam and Muslims with the rise of terrorism). It has been perpetuated mostly by ignorance, and partly with deception and misinformation before and after the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks.

As much as terrorists hijacked our religion, extreme right-wing neoconservatives hijacked our administration, and it seemed to every Muslim that America is at war with Islam the religion, not with the terrorists who have hurt us. As you, we wanted to bring terrorists to justice. It seemed the facts did not matter anymore, as negative and false perceptions became the rule, not the exception, about Islam and Muslims.

Islam in the media is seen as violent, aggressive, threatening, supportive of terrorism, and engaged in a clash of civilization (an idea put in Samuel Huntington's 1998 book The Clash of Civilizations and the Remaking of World Order). Thus, anti-Muslim hostility is seen, which includes demonizing Islam and attacking our prophet and holy book (the Koran), and waging a smear campaign on radio talk shows, TV programs and the Internet.

The treatment: I believe the therapy will include education and outreach and kindness. Ignorance constitutes 90 to 95 percent of the problem; the remaining 5 percent of the problem will need to be dealt with by law enforcement.

Of course, "ignorance" is the problem. Ain't it always. And wouldn't you know it, every time a Muslim kills a non-Muslim in the name of Islam, more and more people grow ignorant of Islam. Dr. Eldin's article, of course, is part of a larger effort to convince Americans that any Muslim who commits violence in the name of Islam is not a genuine Muslim, and that the genuine article is peaceful, peaceful, peaceful. And tolerant. One problem with such "education" efforts is that they do nothing to prevent "genuine" Muslims from turning without warning into "false" ones.

Do Muslims in America really want to decrease fear and mistrust directed toward them? Easy. Just follow these four simple steps:

1. Stop blaming violent acts committed by Muslims in the name of Islam on the various sins of unbelievers.

2. Establish nationwide, compulsory programs in American mosques to teach against the jihad ideology and Islamic supremacism, by means including an explicit and definitive rejection of the literal meaning of many passages of Qur'an and Hadith.

3. Stop saying violent or hateful things in private when you think no non-Muslims are around. For example, the imam Umar Abdul-Jalil, executive director of ministerial services for the New York City Department of Correction, was secretly recorded last year while speaking at an Islamic conference in Arizona. Muslims, he said, invoking Qur’an 48:29, must be "compassionate with each other" and "hard against the kufr [unbeliever]." In Britain, Hamid Ali, imam of the mosque frequented by the July 7 bombers, praised the bombers and called their terror attack "good" in a conversation secretly recorded by an undercover journalist. Publicly, he had condemned the attacks. In a mosque in the Czech Republic, a Muslim secretly filmed by a documentary filmmaker says Islamic Shari’a law, including the stoning of adulterers, should be adopted by the Czech Republic. Cleveland imam Fawaz Damra, who has since been deported for failing to disclose his ties to terror groups, signed the Fiqh Council of North America’s condemnation of terrorism, despite having declared at an Islamic conference that "terrorism, and terrorism alone, is the path to liberation."

Do such incidents mean that every Muslim who professes to have adopted Western notions of pluralism and the equality of dignity and rights of non-Muslims and Muslims is dissembling? Of course not. But they do mean that non-Muslims are perfectly justified in being suspicious even when Muslim profess moderation and opposition to terror. Consequently deeds, not just words, are needed. To conclude my four recommendations, genuinely anti-terror Muslims should:

4. Actively work with Western law enforcement officials to identify and apprehend jihadists within Western Muslim communities.

But it is unlikely that any of that will be done. Instead, these poor mistrusted, misunderstood folks will keep crying "Islamophobia" and trying to manipulate the American legal and political systems.

"Let the world know, American Muslims strongly condemn terrorism and all terrorists, whoever they are and wherever they may be. We love our country and are very proud to be American and Muslim"

Huh? Did I miss the mass uprisings of muslims against the radicals?

"As much as terrorists hijacked our religion, extreme right-wing neoconservatives hijacked our administration,... "

Oh my, I almost broke some ribs reading that one-it was so funny! If the extreme right wingers had indeed taken over this administration Islam would be kaput already and the mental midget making this statement would be jailed, deported or dead. This administration's problem in dealing with the enemy has not been one of excess-it's been one of far too much timidity. That's why we continue to read laughable statements such as these and why Islam is still doing just fine with its program of good works around the world.

By the way, I don't see the good doctor offering a timetable for when the Muslim majority will finally seize control of their precious Islam from that minority of fanatics. Will it be five years? 50? 5000? When doc, when? We've been waiting 1400 years for this to happen so it would be nice to know when this will finally come to pass.

I agree with the good Doctor. I had a similar experience with cock-roach-a-phobia just last year. All I did was kill all the roaches in my domicile and poof!....I was cured.

Methinks a similar solution will most certainly cure me of my current affliction of Islamophobia.

How about treating and curing IslamoPHILIA? If that's done, the rest will follow. I prescribe several doses of castor oil and an enema. Then stand back, because it will be quite messy!

The Mythical " Moderates " LOL

I have a better chance of seeing a Unicorn than a outspoken MODERATE Muslim!

When they protest in the Hundreds of thousands against Jihad and Terror then i will believe them. When they Take to the streets and Burn an Effigie of Ahmadinejad or Bin Laden then i will give them some credit, till then i see them as Complacent silent ACCOMPLICES!

" Fear of Islam can be treated, cured "

It's called Nuclear Weapons! just like the Nutjobs in Iran want to CURE the West and Israel of it's illness (Unbelieving) . the Question is Who's going to CURE whom first?

A doctor's rantings in one of his epileptic seizures.

Maybe we could hold a conference on Islamophobia. We could have experts debating the origins of Islamophobia and methodologies like education for curing Islamophobia. We could invite the Iranian President Imanazi and Ibliis Hooper. Hell, we could have "American" experts give conflicting testimony about 9-11.

" Fear of Islam can be treated, cured "

Could this CURE be exposing the Mythical Moderate as a Hoax?

Fear?

" We have nothing to FEAR but FEAR itself"

ISLAM is Fear.....

Not to mention Cruel, Inhumane, Masogynistic, Violent, Intolerant, and the list goes ever on.

WOW! It only took five years for him to come out and profess his love of America!

Id like to see him try and "cure" my islamaphobia, he could start by moving his ass back dar al islam.

Go Chargers!

Five years since 9-11...

Dr. Adel Eldin, heal thyself--of your Koran-inspired Infidelophobia.

Evidence of Dr. Eldin's Infidelophobia: As a Muslim, it is nearly 100% certain that he endorses all of the following insults, hate, and prejudice against non-Muslims, which are found in the Koran:


The Koran says that disbelievers (non-Muslims):
--are “worst of created beings” (98:6), are “miscreants” (2:99, 24:55), are the worst beasts in Allah’s sight (8:22, 8:55); (some Christians and/or Jews were) turned into “apes and/or pigs” (2:65-66, 5:58-60, 7:166); are like frightened donkeys chased by a lion (74:50-51), are like cattle—nay, worse than cattle (7:179), are like dogs (7:176);

--they (idolaters) are unclean (9:28); have uncleanness set upon them by Allah (10:100, 6:125); the hypocrites are unclean (9:95).

--“evil” is upon them (16:27), evil (2:91, 2:99); “wicked” (80:42, 9:125); the “wrong-doers” (42:45, 2:254, 5:45); evil-doers (42:44); evil-livers (5:59); they have no good in them (8:23); are “guilty” for disbelieving (45:31, 83:29); on the side of Satan and are fighting for him (4:76-77); of the party of Satan (58:19); Allah assigns them devils for protecting friends (7:27); they choose devils for protecting friends (7:30); are partisan against Allah (25:55); "enemy" (63:4);

---“perverted” (63:4); disgraced lives (22:9); hypocrites (4:61); are ill (84:20); have a “diseased heart” (2:10, 9:125); in false pride and schism (38:2), in schism (2:137, 2:167);

--foolish (6:35); deaf, dumb, and blind, and have no sense (2:171); deaf and dumb and in darkness, Allah sends them astray (6:39); have no sense (5:103, 10:100); a folk who do not understand (9:127); their fathers were unintelligent and had no knowledge or guidance (2:170, 5:104); are “a folk without intelligence”/ “most ignorant” (8:65, 6:111); losers who are deceived by Allah (2:6), and deceived by Satan (4:60);

--Allah sends devils against them to make them do evil (19:83); Allah cursed them for their unbelief (2:88-89),

--liars /they lie (2:10, 4:50, 6:28, 9:42, 16:39, 16:105, 59:11); foolish and liars (7:66), liars and losers (58:18-19),

--“losers” (5:53, 6:31, 7:178-179); among the lowest (58:20); the lowest of the low (95:4-6)

In reading those above insults, keep the following points in mind:
-these insults apply to disbelievers because they are disbelievers (disbelief is the worst crime)
-the insults are assumed to be the words of Allah and are therefore true of disbelievers for all time, until the Last Day
-the disbelievers cannot do anything to improve Allah’s perception of them (He does not accept the good works of the disbelievers), except to believe in and obey Allah.
-the insulting adjectives refer to the inherent character traits of disbelievers


Disbelievers who do good works do so in vain, because they are going to hell anyway (5:5, 18:104-106, also 18:30, 33:19, 47:1-4, 47:32). Their works are as ashes blown away by the wind; they have no control over what they have earned (14:18).

And from the hadith:

Sahih Bukhari, Volume 1, Book 2, Number 20:
Narrated Anas: The Prophet said, "Whoever possesses the following three qualities will taste the sweetness of faith:
1. The one to whom Allah and His Apostle become dearer than anything else.
2. Who loves a person and he loves him only for Allah's sake.
3. Who hates to revert to disbelief (Atheism) after Allah has brought (saved) him out from it, as he hates to be thrown in fire."


Sounds like an irrational and disproportionate fear or loathing to me, Dr. Eldin. And if you actually knew anything about real phobias, you would realize that "disproportionate" and "irrational" are key characteristics that distinguish fear/hatred that is phobic from legitimate or reasonable fears and concerns. Me, I believed the religion-of-peace-hijacked-by-fundamentalists line until I actually did some research on the Islamic scriptures, Islamic history, and the extent of the present-day problems with Islam globally.


The accusation of Islamophobia is galling, considering that the Islamic texts order Muslims to instill precisely such fear in the non-Muslims:

--Terrorize them, 3:151, 33:26, 59:2, 8:12, 8:57, 8:60. (also see 9:5). 59:13—the disbelievers fear Muslims more than Allah. Note the 3:151 refers to attacking those disbelievers who ascribe partners (Christians, Jews, Idolaters).

8:60. “Against them make ready your strength to the utmost of your power, including steeds of war, to strike terror into (the hearts of) the enemies, of Allah and your enemies, and others besides, whom ye may not know, but whom Allah doth know. Whatever ye shall spend in the cause of Allah, shall be repaid unto you, and ye shall not be treated unjustly.”

And from the hadith:

Sahih Bukhari, Volume 4, Book 52, Number 220: Narrated Abu Huraira: Allah's Apostle said, "I have been sent with the shortest expressions bearing the widest meanings, and I have been made victorious with terror (cast in the hearts of the enemy), and while I was sleeping, the keys of the treasures of the world were brought to me and put in my hand." Abu Huraira added: Allah's Apostle has left the world and now you, people, are bringing out those treasures (i.e. the Prophet did not benefit by them). [Also see Sahih Muslim, Book 004, Number 1062, 1063, 1066, 1067; Sahih Bukhari, Volume 9, Book 87, Number 127 and 141].

Muslim apologists always say the same dribble and it's getting tired.

O/T: Google just rejected my application for AdSense because my blog has "sensitive" content! I'm too Islamophobic for them!

Whoooo hoooooo!

If their cure didn't involve the lopping off of heads, we might be inclined to believe them.

However as long as they are "Beheading those who insult Islam", I'd say we are well founded in our belief that they do not belong in polite society.

I thought crispy fried bacon and a shot of Schnapps was a cure for the commom islam.

Let's get one thing straight. There is no such thing as islamophobia. That's a PC term. The correct term is islamo-loathing. There isn't any reason for any American to show these cretins any respect until the non-terrorist muslims (if there is such a thing) show they seriously condemn Islamo-terrorism by having a Million muslim March. Then maybe a dialog can begin. And if this march is held, hand out soap to all the participants.

Yeah-your site is SO filled with anti-Muslim hatred that you should be ashamed of yourself. Sure.

Ridiculous!

-As much as terrorists hijacked our religion

Can someone tell me which version of the qur'an to read, cause the one I read must have been the terrorist edition.

-Islam in the media is seen as violent, aggressive, threatening, supportive of terrorism, and engaged in a clash of civilization

Please show me the Islam that is not violent, aggressive.....etc

-The treatment: I believe the therapy will include education and outreach and kindness

From us or the Muslims???

its not fear ,its digust.

Lots of Muslims fear Islam too, and their fear in this sense is warranted (i.e., not a phobia). For example, for a Muslim to directly and publicly condemn and reject unequivocally all of those Koranic insults which I quoted above, he or she could risk being accused of apostasy or blasphemy, the penalties for which are up to and including death, according to the main schools of Islamic jurisprudence.

See? It's all in our minds. Just a little therapy and we'll all be cured! Ha Ha!

HEY DOC -- HOW ABOUT A "ISLAMECTOMY:?

Somebody tell the doctor that there's something wrong with his religion and that its contagious. Time for a radical islamectomy!

Some words from Archimedes post above:

The Koran says that disbelievers (non-Muslims):"

“worst of created beings”
“miscreants”
"are the worst beasts in Allah’s sight"
"turned into “apes and/or pigs”
"are like frightened donkeys chased by a lion"
"are like cattle—nay"
"worse than cattle"
"are like dogs"
"are unclean
"have uncleanness set upon them by Allah"
"the hypocrites are unclean"
"evil"
“wicked”"
“wrong-doers”
"evil-doers"
"evil-livers"
"they have no good in them"
"are “guilty” for disbelieving"
"on the side of Satan and are fighting for him"
"of the party of Satan"
"Allah assigns them devils for protecting friends"
"they choose devils for protecting friends"
"are partisan against Allah"
"enemy"
"perverted”
"disgraced lives"
"hypocrites" "are ill"
"have a “diseased heart”"
"foolish"
"deaf, dumb, and blind, and have no sense"
"deaf and dumb and in darkness"
"have no sense"
"folk who do not understand"
"their fathers were unintelligent and had no knowledge or guidance"
"are “a folk without intelligence”
“most ignorant”
"losers who are deceived by Allah"
"deceived by Satan"
"Allah sends devils against them to make them do evil"
"Allah cursed them for their unbelief"
"liars"
"foolish and liars"
"liars and losers"
“losers”
"among the lowest"
"the lowest of the low"

Describes islam perfectly!

The Middle East problem? Nothing that a 100 megaton nuke can't solve.

Only a comment about the name of your blog "Jihad Watch".
Hirabah is the Arabic word that actually means what your attributing to Jihad.

I offer this comment only as a point of discussion because using the wrong word isn't necessary or helpful when the correct word is available.

Here are a few links to help clarify the significance:
by Dr. Robert D. Crane
And
Shahed Amanullah is editor-in-chief of alt.muslim

Again, offered for discussion and clarification.

The Muslim Cure for Islamiphobia is " BEHEADING "

The Cure for Islam is .....

Nuclear?

Certainly not something we would ever wish to do, but something that we will likely have to do.

Every time you talk about people of the West being Islamophobes - Islamics pretend it's about hating people from the Mid East or Arabs or Persians - but it's NOT the people we hate, it's the Islamic religion that is hateful -

You Mullahs and maulanas, and clerics have been trying to fool us for years - but we're NOT stupid!

IT's NOT the people we HATE - but the islamic cult- repressive to humans, and esp. to women.

You islamics pretend that we, in the West started the clash with the Crusades and now Iraq/Afghanistn:

But all this time -really, islam has been quietly working behind the scenes biting off - chewing and swalling other countries - you took parts of India and turned them into - Pakistan, Bangladesh - and now working on Kashmir/Jumma. You've been working in E. Timor and Sri Lanka, south Thailand and Southern Philippines, and Chechnya, and Kosovo, etc.

And before that, taking all the cultured, developed cultures of the MidEast- and No. Afr. along the Mediterranean - those developed cultures inheritors of the Greeks - a highly evolved peoples - and regressing them by destroying libraries and the desire to learn all subjects, and turning all things, upside down.

IT'S ISLAMICS THAT ORIGINATED THE CLASH BETWEEN CIVILIZATIONS!

It's NOT the people we hate - it's the RELIGION!


Allat

Just a lot of liberal gobbledy-gook. Nariz can try to dispute it, but every recommendation that this "docter" makes are precisely what liberals teach in their multiculturalism and diversity training. It could have been ANY liberal writing this junk, but it just happened to be a Muslim.

"I thought crispy fried bacon and a shot of Schnapps was a cure for the commom islam."

No, no. No, fried pork rind and a short of Bacardi.

Non-Muslims are attacked yet in another Islamic country. This is all a coincidence. Right?


Algerian jihad group claims responsibility for attack on "crusaders and apostates"

http://www.jihadwatch.org/archives/014382.php#comments

I for one don't need to be CURED . I don't FEAR Islam, I am WISE to it. I FEAR for those who won't wake up. I FEAR that the West is losing it's Resolve to face Islam for what it is.

Islamiphobia is the NEW "Definition" given for being Elightened and Educated about Islam's true intent. Nothing Less nothing more.


I am Islamiphobic ( Proud to be ), but i need to be cured of NOTHING!

"I thought crispy fried bacon and a shot of Schnapps was a cure for the commom islam."

"No, no. No, fried pork rind and a short of Bacardi."

Our sects must have diverged millenia ago and thus we have similar but differing traditional cures. Kinda like Shi'a and Sunni?

Dave,

Struggle of all kinds against non-Muslims in order to establish Islamic law is called jihad, according to all eight schools of Islamic jurisprudence.

Robert Crane neglects to mention that Muhammad himself engaged in, or ordered, terrorism against non-Muslims, including deadly raids on caravans, sustained attacks (with mangonels) against fortified villages containing women and children (e.g., Ta'if), and assassinations of mere critics. This fits Crane's definition of hirabah.

What this boils down to is that in Islam, terrorism against non-Muslims for the sake of defending, establishing, or spreading Islam is one form of jihad. On the other hand, any actions or words deemed to be significantly and intentionally against Islam are considered hirabah, war against Allah, spreading mischief (fasad) in the land, etc.

^^^LMAO!!!!!

Thanks , I needed something funny today.

This is a direct quote from him:

Naturally, we have to stop inflaming the feelings of the Muslim world by:

- Bringing our troops back home within six to 12 months and replacing them with a U.N.-led peacekeeping force, mostly from a very strong Muslim ally of the United States that also is a leading Arabic and Muslim country: Egypt.


Sooooo... Mister holier than thou, ....blah,blah,blah...Muslim ally ...

What difference does muslim or non-muslim have to do with the issue unless you believe you are different and really don't want to integrate with us.

Let's look at the muslim countries and see were they are morally from 643AD until present. If you think Arab countries are much better than ours why don't you move back there.

I know why. Because your all a bunch of hypocrits.
Just today 54 people were killed,mutilated,mangled,heads blown off, women, babies lives snuffed out. Possible these beautiful, most holy mujahadeen , snuffed out a life of a person that could have grown up to lead Iraq to peace and greatness.

So don't give all the crap about our intolerance. Just look at the backwardness of the middle east and their disrespect for life.

Re: Fear of Islam can be treated, cured

Maybe this clown can start with the families of the Jewish ladies who were killed or wounded in Seattle. You can't have enough contempt for this dishonesty.

"We love our country and are very proud to be American and Muslim."
--What's-his-name, leader in the Moslem community in Hernando County

You cannot be both--American and Moslem. It's either or. This is not widely recognized--yet. Someday, one hopes soon, it will be.

Why not? Why can't one be both--American and Moslem?

The Constitution of the United States and the koran are at odds. One cannot be loyal to both. Ergo, one is either a good American and a bad Moslem or a bad American and a good Moslem.

Bad American = lying when taking the oath of citizenship (because one is a good Moslem), unable to take the oath to defend the Constitution of the United States without it being invalid (being deceitful), someone who should be either stripped of citizenship, then along with Moslem non-citizens, interned or deported.

Bad Moslem = someone who cannot be depended upon not to become a good Moslem when the % of Moslems in the United States reaches a level when they can pervert the government and start it towards becoming Islamic. Or when someone who is Moslem sees that the world-wide jihad is successful and the entire world appears to be headed for Islamic domination.

As for Islamophobia, we ain't got it. We don't FEAR Islam, we abhor it.

http://islamic-danger.blogspot.com/2006/12/do-we-have-islamophobia-no.html

infidel-ophobia- I like that one- That needs to be a new catch phrase everytime nutjob jihadists take hte stage- they need to be drowned out with shouts of infidel-ophobia so the world can see they are the ones who are being intolorant. biggotted, and just plain psychotic! http://sacredscoop.com

"Islam in the media is seen as violent, aggressive, threatening, supportive of terrorism, and engaged in a clash of civilization (an idea put in Samuel Huntington's 1998 book The Clash of Civilizations and the Remaking of World Order).

I offer another cure...

An excellent case can be made, that the writers of the Declaration of Independence, US Constitution, and amendments to the Constitution, never
intended for the First Amendment:


Amendment I - Freedom of Religion, Press, Expression. Ratified 12/15/1791.

Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of
speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.

...to provide shelter for Islam, which is not strictly a religion, because it is a supremacist political ideology.

It is my opinion that Islam should have its right to be designated a religion in the USA withdrawn, because it tolerates no religion other than Islam.

Communism, Nazism, and Fascism are more similar to Islam than Christianity, Judaism, Buddhism, and Hinduism are.

This does not attempt to suggest that Islam should be outlawed, but simply points out that Islam has more in common with political ideologies, than it does with religions.

The thrust of my idea is not to outlaw Islam... it is to have Islam lose its Constitutional protection as a religion, and to have it instead, assigned to the category of a political deology... like Communism, Nazism, and Fascism... and Democracy, and other political ideologies, like Constitutional Monarchies, which are also not
recognised as religions under the US onstitution.

Once Islam is denied protection under the Constitution as a religion, it will then lose it's tax-exemption status, and the other protections that are granted to religions under the law, that are not granted to political ideologies.

Islam is also a direct violation of the spirit of the Declaration of Independence, in that it denies all US Citizens the right to Life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness.

Muslims should also be held to account in matters of treason:


Section 3 - Treason

Treason against the United States, shall consist only in levying War against them, or in adhering to their Enemies, giving them Aid and Comfort. No Person shall be convicted of Treason unless on the Testimony of two Witnesses to the same overt Act, or on Confession in open Court.

The Congress shall have power to declare the Punishment of Treason, but no Attainder of Treason shall work Corruption of Blood, or Forfeiture
except during the Life of the Person attainted.

...and if found guilty, they should be put to death.

There is a contradiction in the "Moderate Muslim" approach (just one?): They say the Jihadis are not true Muslims, but then when invited to turn them into the police they fall back on "we're not supposed to say anything against fellow Muslims."

Dr. Eldin says:

"Naturally, we have to stop inflaming the feelings of the Muslim world by: -Bringing our troops back home within six to 12 months and replacing them with a U.N.-led peacekeeping force, mostly from a very strong Muslim ally of the United States that also is a leading Arabic and Muslim country: Egypt.”"

…which will do absolutely nothing to end sectarian violence. However, I do agree with bringing the troops home—though for different reasons.

- Becoming an even-handed broker in the Middle East conflict, especially if United States wants to maintain credibility as a broker in the peace process.

…in other words, Eldin wants the U.S. to be an “even-handed broker” with HAMAS and Hizballah—both explicitly genocidalist jihadist organizations which reject any lasting peace with Israel but are instead dedicated to its annihilation as the first step in their openly-declared war against western civilization.

- Reviewing the parts of the Patriot Act that are damaging to our liberty and way of life, and makes us suspicious of each other.

…which parts? There is too little, not too much, undercover monitoring of radicalized mosques, etc.

- Reviewing policies and holding hearings on policies that unfairly target the Muslim community, such as wiretapping and denial of visas to Muslim leaders who advocate peace and justice, such as Yusuf Islam (also known as Cat Stevens).

…Cat Stevens a.k.a Yusuf Islam agrees with the killing of apostates and has specifically approved of any attempts to kill Salman Rushdie. There's Eldin's Islamic exemplar of peace and justice.

- Establishing a special liaison between the U.S. State Department, the White House and American Muslims to discuss education, security and peaceful conflict resolution in the world.

…already have it. It’s called CAIR—and it isn’t working. On the contrary, CAIR itself is up to its eyeballs with terrorist connections and sharia asperations, and seeks to attack those legitimate critics of Islam who appear in the mainstream media.

- Reconnecting America to the Muslim world and re-establishing a healthy dialogue about mutual interests and the alliance of civilizations, not clash of civilizations. We need oil, which our lives and economy depend on, and which is found mostly in Muslim countries.

…no we don’t need more dependency on Islamic countries’ (e.g., Iran, Saudi Arabia, etc) oil; we need to end it and thereby stop funding the jihad and propaganda directed against us and our societies. There cannot be an alliance of free society and a sharia society (which is founded on hate, superstition, and Islamic Supremacism).

- Following through on the 9/11 bipartisan commission's recommendation to bring hope through human development and improved living conditions, especially in Palestine and in Lebanon, where witnesses reported massacres of children. America alone vetoed the U.N. resolution that condemned those acts and sided with Israel, a country that is given $200-million every day in U.S. tax money, part of which is used to kill innocent women and children. It makes our country look really bad in the eyes of the world.

…at least up until the end of last year, the tax money which the U.S. and other western countries gives to Lebanon and the PA gets funneled into terrorist activity (of HAMAS, Hizballah, etc), resulting in the slaughter of innocent Israeli civilians. The money also gets funneled into anti-Israeli propaganda which is taught to children and spread through the Muslim-Arab media.

Thus, we need the U.N. force monitoring the region while the peace process is being resuscitated and a final road map is being established to create two separate states living in peace and harmony and while attempts are made to replace extremism with moderation. This is the only way to bring sanity back to the world; clearly, wars will not achieve anything but destruction.

…U.N. force is monitoring the region and Hizballah is using the opportunity to re-arm. Terrorists cannot be stopped with dialogue. Once a radical has gone to the violent stage, generally only by police and military force can they be brought under control. But appeasement rewards them and cedes power to them.

Finally, a very powerful treatment tool is to use the power of prayer to bring peace in this very special season, when our Christian friends and neighbors celebrate the birth of Jesus Christ (peace be upon him), along with their Muslim friends who celebrate Eid al-Adha, the feast of sacrifice, and with their Jewish friends who observe Hanukkah. All three religions have a common father: Abraham.

...1. And look what Islam commands against its so-called religious siblings:

9:29: “Fight against such of those who have been given the Scripture as believe not in Allah nor the Last day, and forbid not that which Allah hath forbidden by his messenger, and follow not the Religion of Truth, until they pay tribute* readily, being brought low."

*Jizya.

...2. Prayers like Muhammad’s prayers?

Sahih Bukhari, Volume 4, Book 53, Number 409:
Narrated 'Abdullah: While the Prophet was in the state of prostration, surrounded by a group of people from Quraish pagans. 'Uqba bin Abi Mu'ait came and brought the intestines of a camel and threw them on the back of the Prophet . The Prophet did not raise his head from prostration till Fatima (i.e. his daughter) came and removed those intestines from his back, and invoked evil on whoever had done (the evil deed). The Prophet said, "O Allah! Destroy the chiefs of Quraish, O Allah! Destroy Abu Jahl bin Hisham, 'Utba bin Rabi'a, Shaiba bin Rabi'a. 'Uqba bin Abi Mu'ait 'Umaiya bin Khalaf (or Ubai bin Kalaf)." Later on I saw all of them killed during the battle of Badr and their bodies were thrown into a well except the body of Umaiya or Ubai, because he was a fat person, and when he was pulled, the parts of his body got separated before he was thrown into the well.

Sahih Bukhari, Volume 4, Book 52, Number 183:
Narrated Abu Huraira:
The Prophet used to recite the following invocations during Qunut: "O Allah! Save Salama bin Hisham. O Allah! Save Al-Walid bin Al-Walid. O Allah! Save 'Aiyash bin Rabi'a O Allah ! Save the weak Muslims. O Allah! Be very hard on Mudar tribe. O Allah! Afflict them with years (of famine) similar to the (famine) years of the time of Prophet Joseph."

Here is how “Allah” answers prayers of non-Muslims:

21:12. Then, when they perceived (saw) Our Torment (coming), behold, they (tried to) flee from it.
21:13. Flee not, but return to that wherein you lived a luxurious life, and to your homes, in order that you may be questioned.
21:14. They cried: "Woe to us! Certainly! We have been Zalimun (polytheists, wrong-doers and disbelievers in the Oneness of Allah, etc.)."
21:15. And that cry of theirs ceased not, till We made them as a field that is reaped, extinct (dead).

Peace on earth is the best gift anybody could wish to have. Peace be with you all.

…a nice-sounding sentiment, but how do we know it is sincere (and in the context of Dr. Eldin's mischievous article, why should we believe that it is)?

43:89: “Then bear with them (O Muhammad) and say: Peace. But they will come to know.”

[The tafsirs—Ibn Kathir, al-Jalalayn, Ibn Abbas, etc.—agree that this is intended as a threat of the warfare and punishment to follow]

Robert writes: "Dr. Eldin's article, of course, is part of a larger effort to convince Americans that any Muslim who commits violence in the name of Islam is not a genuine Muslim, and that the genuine article is peaceful, peaceful, peaceful."

This erroneously implies that all Americans (since no qualifier was used for "Americans") need to be convinced that Islam itself is unrelated to the extremist acts of certain Muslims.

In fact, millions of Americans already think that: it is the dominant mainstream way of interpreting the incoming data of extremist Muslim activity, following one of the central mechanisms of the PC Multiculturalist Template, by which all bad data about Muslims is carefully and efficiently separated from Islam itself, and from a supposed majority of moderate & nice Muslims. Millions of Americans -- perhaps even a majority, including vast swathes of ordinary non-elite Americans -- already think that, and have thought that all along, and will likely continue to think that, until a sufficient amount of widespread horror finally wakes them up.

So, either Dr. Eldin is as ignorant of the mainstream dominance of the PC Multiculturalist Template as Robert and many other Jihad Watchers are, or Dr. Eldin is just hedging his bets and making sure to maintain that mainstream dominance against a few spiderweb cracks in the PC edifice that he and others are beginning to discern.

He is a good mohammedan,
he worships the prophet
of the moon god allah
and the words 'allah said
to Gabriel who said
to mohammed who said'
called the koran.
He wants our submission
to his cult, his mission.

I do not have a disease, I am just simply against oppressive idologies that hide behind the skirts called faith.

Well Maryam , i also posted this , which you seem to have overlooked in the same post.

Here:

" Certainly not something we would ever WISH to do, but something that we will likely HAVE to do. "

It WAS Sarcasm because i qualified that remark by saying it's something we would never WANT to do . I will put (SARCASM) In brackets from now on as to avoid confusion.

If there ever is a Nuclear bomb dropped over there i assure you they will have left no other Choice. are you not concerned about Israel? the Millions of Jews who live under that threat and threats from Iran to wipe them out Daily!

Yes , if they do as much then i say they have it coming .

I wish for peace among all men and Women , but Islam has a Doctrin of Hate and Violence that will most certainly make that IMPOSSIBLE.

Actually i won't call it Sarcasm, more like foreshadowing.

And here is the British Muslim take on Islamophobia, courtesy of Sheikh Qaradawi's Islamonline.net. The interview is with author
Mohammad Siddique Seddon, of the Islamic Foundation UK:

IOL: You mentioned in your book that Islamophobia is an established phenomenon that is deeply rooted and has wide-reaching impact. What are the most important manifestations in the British society? Which is more dangerous against the Muslims, Islamophobia on the state or the individual level?

Seddon: Islamophobia is a new form of racism that focuses specifically on the cultures, beliefs, and practices of Muslims. A recent report for the European Union (EUMC report on Islamophobia) acknowledged that it is on the increase and that Muslim minorities need protection through laws against this religious hate crime. The reality of “religious racism” has been recognized against Jews and Sikhs here in the UK and racism against black and Asian communities has also been prohibited by law. Unfortunately for British Muslims, they are protected by law as blacks or Asians but they are unprotected as Muslims. This means they still suffer discrimination for their religious beliefs and practices. Until the government acknowledges Islamophobia as a crime and institutes new laws to protect Muslims, this form of discrimination will continue on both the individual and institutional levels. At the present only government legislation will offer protection against Islamophobia, and if they do not offer protection to Muslims against this crime, we really need to ask why.

IOL: How can the British Muslims face the disadvantages of lacking the legal recognition and being attacked under the Anti-terrorism, Crime and Security Act?

Seddon: At the moment we cannot and we have been told by Hazel Blears, a Home Office Minister, that we should expect to be targeted under these new draconian and undemocratic anti-terror laws in which, it would appear, all Muslims are suspects by virtue of their religion alone.

IOL: Islam is not a religion confined to one ethnic group, and I know that the British law protects other religious groups from any offensive action against them as ethnic groups (Jews, Sikhs, etc.). Do you think that this should be changed and how?

Seddon: British Muslims are very diverse ethnically and culturally, and we have Muslims present here from all over the world as well as a large convert community. This means that they cannot be defined as a religious group ethnically because the sub-division would be too many and too diverse. Therefore, specific legislation has to be introduced that recognizes the two million British Muslims as a religious entity in its own right.

@maryam

Concerned Canadian just want the Mohammedans to go to heaven so they can get down with the 72 virgins. Concerned Canadian is a very reasonable poster who is just concerned that Jihads don't lose the opportunity to have fun with the Heavenly Houris.
It will be better for the dead Jihadis in heaven and better for us infidels down here on earth. Surely Allah is all wise, compassionate, forgiving, knowing.

The scares, the alerts, the explosions; it's being STAGED to give power to your Authorities

Governments have planned and pulled this propaganda on you because they know you would choose it if you found out, ending their power.
Most people who look into Islam with an open mind, do embrace.

If anyone was trying to kill you they're doing a pretty poor job of it!

"Governments have planned and pulled this propaganda on you because they know you would choose it if you found out, ending their power.

Yes, the world govmts are in cahoots to drive the "sheep" in the pen - so they can rule us easier - but to see what is going on - to look around you at the danger - esp. women seeing what happens to other women in this death cult Islam and still EMBRACE it - is beyond belief.

An overview of what Islamic women go through - and hwo they themselves destroy their children - how they women have been enslaved - lady, can you believe that the women themselves hold down their own baby girls to castrate them? This is going on right now in Africa - in Nigeria, in Sudan, and other countries?

To see the % of honor killings?

To marry off little girls betw - 9-12 yrs old whose internal organs are not mature enough for penetration - this goes on daily in Iran and Saudi Arabia and elsewhere!

Have you read "Not Without My Daughter!" ? - the story of a foolish American woman who embraces Islam?

You IDIOT ! What is there to embrace?

"Ignorance constitutes 90 to 95 percent of the problem" - Dr. Adel Eldin

Ignorance 1) is a lack of knowledge. Ignorance is also a "state of being ignorant" or unaware/uninformed.

Ignorance 2) is the choice to not act or behave in accordance with regard to certain information in order to suit ones own needs/beliefs.

Problem 1)is a state of difficulty that needs to be resolved.

Problem 2) is trouble: a source of difficulty.

Indeed.

Maryam:

They aren't killing US because we are stronger in every possible way than they are. However, your "peaceful" brethren do an EXCELLENT job in exterminating the weak and helpless. Millions of innocent human beings have been mercilessly butchered in the name of your "god." Millions of people have been enslaved, butchered, and forced into submission to your satanic diety.

Your knowledge regarding your religion is pathetic. You need to read up on it sometime.

"Kinda like Shi'a and Sunni?"

Heaven forbid! Let's pass out under the table together!

Allat

maryan,

"Islam is a perfect, beautiful way of life. If you knew the truth you would WANT to be governed by sharia law because you'd be more free and happier than you are now. It is so far from the warped perception you have of it that you must have been actively and purposefully mislead."

If Islam is so perfect and a beautiful way of life, why are women so very oppressed? No, I am happy to be a Christian and believe in the God who saves.

I'm a pretty practical guy and check the record first before I put any value behind words such as those spoken by Eldin. In other words deeds matter more than words.

Deeds (or non-deeds)

1. If what Eldin and other Islamic apologists are saying is true, why hasn't there been a public and collective rebuff of the fanatics by "moderate" Muslims. This non-deed speaks volumes and feeds uncertainty regarding how Muslims should be viewed. If 10% of Muslims are bad guys how come the other 90% isn't doing a thing to stop them?

2. Why is over 80% of the sustained violence around the world Islam-related?

3. How should non-Muslims view Muslim behavior after such events such as the Danish cartoons? Europe erupted, innocents were slaughtered, and thousands of Muslims paraded with signs promoting killing and beheading infidels. Only a few rare Muslim voices from the wilderness condemned the Muslims' intolerant and violent behavior.

4. Why don't Muslims allow non-Muslims to sit in on Friday sermons? Muslims are always welcome in my church. Are the clerics saying things they don't want non-Muslims to hear?

5 Why is it that 99% of the terrorist actions are committed by Muslims with little or no condemnation from the Muslim world?

6. Why should we trust the words of Muslims about how Islam values human life and respects human rights when most of the worst abuses are occuring in Muslim lands on a systemic basis?

I could go on and on, but you get the point. Actions speak louder than words, and the actions of Islam belies the words of apologists like Eldin. Based on the record, the facts, its only prudent for non-Muslims to be wary of Muslims. The burden of proof is not on the West, its on Islam and, I dare say, its coming up short in convincing anyone that it is to be trusted and is peaceful.

Bubonic Plague can be treated and cured... but it should still be feared.

"Peace on Earth Good Will to Men - but death to Islam."

From my Christmas Card to the ACLU.

I resent the doctor's implication that it is the non-Muslims who have a problem. Every time a Muslim commits some atrocity, we are accused of "ignorance" and "Islamophobia" ... as if our behavior were the root of the problem, rather than a response to it. They never level any criticism at themselves. They make excuses about how the terrorists are "not true Muslims", in an attempt to absolve themselves of any responsibility for what is being done in the name of their religion. Until they admit that they are the ones who have a problem, I don't see Islam becoming any more peaceful.

As much as terrorists hijacked our religion,...(*+


By any definition, big Mo was a terrorist, the originator of the Islamic cult. If they want to give-up terrorism then they have to leave the cult. Terrorism and Islam cannot be separated.

allat:
Written into Islam is the duty of education, kindness and care for children. Also care for your wife.
In the West they tend to extend childhood. Sometimes way too far into adulthood. But Islam encourages responsibility and maturity, and in countries with more natural lives, you find that 6year olds can tend flocks and cook meals. Fifteen year-old young men caring properly for two wives and four childrn-no easy task! But we are a lot more capable than the officials tell us we are. In Islam a girl has to give her consent to marriage or it isn't valid. And she has to be menstruating before intercourse. If marriages are being done outside this it's not Islamic.
The correct Islamic way to avoid extramarital sex is for men and women to keep apart and not mix freely when not married or related by blood. Are those in Africa doing that? Or is it a custom they have fallen into, to circumcise girls to prove their virginity? I am a muslim woman and I can tell you that female circumcision is a debated point, rarely practised overall, and certainly not integral to the faith.
I have not read the book you indicate, but why do you credit it above all the books of glowing testimonials from happy converts?

maryam - your perfect example for men in all times and places, Mohammed, didn't live up to this statement:

In Islam a girl has to give her consent to marriage or it isn't valid. And she has to be menstruating before intercourse. If marriages are being done outside this it's not Islamic.


If you consider lack of protest = consent, well maybe Mohammed had 'consent' in some cases.

Also Aisha wasn't menstruating before first vaginal penetration as recorded in ahadith.


But then again, Mohammed got to break alot of sex-related rules for Muslims... marrying his daughter-in-law for one example. He was above the sex rules and Allah always came to Mohammed's defense in sex controversies. 17 out of 17 times. Allah liked being a sex judge for Mohammed during his soap opera fights with wives.... like the time Mohammed got caught screwing Mariam the Coptic slave of one of his wives. Allah liked Mohammed to screw whomever he wanted. Never put a limit on Mohammed.... interesting.

I have not read the book you indicate,(*

I guess you may have read Kuran like every other Muslim claims to have done it? Then you ought to know how the terrorists Mo treated women. Don't think any of his women had much saying.. oh, yeh, the six years old can obviously make up her own mind… right! Not to forget to screw his son's wife!!! It tells me enough where you are coming from.

There are many such reasons why Islam is not compatible with 21st century. Stop preaching Islam that it is so compassionate to the women on this site, because people here are pretty much aware of how women are treated by the Muslims. By the way that doesn't mean that we are perfect, at least we are working very hard to provide equality. We don't pretend.

Maryam:

You speak of these specific ways by which a Muslim should live, but when I look at what the media in Saudi Arabia, the "Palestinian" Authority, Syria, Hezbollah, Egypt, Iran, and Jordan put out about your religion, it's aways about how Muslims should DIE (as in, how one should die in the fight for Jihad).

It's nice that you believe in living and in ways that one should live. I totally support your wanting to do so.

Do you believe that I have the same right? Do you believe that I have the same rights to live (as well as my family) without fear of being destroyed by people who cry for "death to America!" in Iran and other Islamic nations?


"1. If what Eldin and other Islamic apologists are saying is true, why hasn't there been a public and collective rebuff of the fanatics by "moderate" Muslims. This non-deed speaks volumes and feeds uncertainty regarding how Muslims should be viewed. If 10% of Muslims are bad guys how come the other 90% isn't doing a thing to stop them?"

I can't speak for other Muslims, but I don't denounce them because I don't meet any. It just isn't in Islam. There are none. Lots of muslims believe the media and are puzzled and think it must be another group, but I think it is a fake story.

Isn't a Phobia an irrational fear of something? Please correct me if I am wrong?

Any infidel who has read the Koran, Hadith, and studied islamic history from its violent beginnings to the present; from its invasions of North Africa to fuel the slave trade; to its invasions of (now Dhimmi) Europe; to its bloody conquests in the underbelly of Russia and Hundu Asia....would NOT have an irrational fear of Islam.

You'd think that a "Dr" would be smart enough to know the meaning of "phobia".

Did he get his degree from Mecca University??

@maryam

People who find out the truth about Islam are HORRIFIED!

The posters on this watch know more about Islam than you do!

Who are the greatest killers of Muslims?

Since 1948, the number of Muslims killed by the Americans and Israelis combined is still less than the number killed by the French. And the number of Muslims killed by the French, Israelis, and Americans combined is still less than the number killed by the Soviets/Russians. And the number of Muslims killed by the Soviets, Russians, French, Israelis, and Americans, combined, is still about 1/3 of the number of Muslims who have been killed by Muslim states.


2. Why is over 80% of the sustained violence around the world Islam-related?

Because Islam is being singled out for attack from Western powers!

"I can't speak for other Muslims, but I don't denounce them because I don't meet any. It just isn't in Islam. There are none. Lots of muslims believe the media and are puzzled and think it must be another group, but I think it is a fake story" maryam

Tell your fake story to the people who were murdered over a few funny cartoons; or the people who were murdered in Indonesia because they were walking home from (Christian) school during Ramadan and dared to eat a cookie on their way; tell your fake stories to Theo Van Gough and Pym Fortyn who have experienced the Religion of Peace first hand, and are now Resting in Peace; tell the Children of Beslan that the bullets that blasted their little backs as they ran are fake Maryam.

Maryam; the only thing fake, is the belief that Islam is Peaceful.

Maryam sez:

"Lots of muslims believe the media and are puzzled and think it must be another group, but I think it is a fake story."

You're living in total denial. The evidence is in history, your own "holy" writings, biographers of Muhammad, eyewitness reports, and even in the whitewashed reporting in the mainstreamed media.

If YOU do not see it because you live in a civilized CHRISTIAN society, then thank your god that you do. If you lived in an ISLAMIC-controlled hellhole, then you wouldn't be puzzled in the least. Chances are you'd be with everyone else in the streets crying for infidel blood.

"Until the government acknowledges Islamophobia as a crime and institutes new laws to protect Muslims... specific legislation has to be introduced that recognizes the two million British Muslims as a religious entity in its own right."
--M. Siddique Seddon, from article above

Both in Britain and America comes the constant drumbeat for specific legal protection for Muslims against either criticism (they term it hate speech) or efforts by governments to protect themselves from self-defined "Islamic" terrorists. Seddon insists on calling it all racism even while admitting this "racism" has nothing to do with ethnicity. It is, well, "religious racism"--

'When I use a word,' Humpty Dumpty said, in a rather scornful tone,' it means just what I choose it to mean, neither more nor less.'
'The question is,' said Alice, 'whether you can make words mean so many different things.'

'The question is,' said Humpty Dumpty, 'which is to be master - that's all.'

Regardless, all such legislative efforts need to be taken seriously and checkmated at the outset.

I did not read all of the article. I do not have to eat every apple in the barrel to discover that it it full of rotten apples.

I only read to this sentence to discover that this man is a ______liar:

"The disease called Islamophobia . . . has been perpetuated mostly by ignorance, and partly with deception and misinformation before and after the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks."

2. Why is over 80% of the sustained violence around the world Islam-related?

Because Islam is being singled out for attack from Western powers! Maryam

BAWAHAAA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA!!!!!!!!!!!

Yes the best way to win an election in a democratic West is to wage war.

Tell that one to George Bush! BAAA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA!!!!!!!!

Is the Phillipines a Western 'power'?
Is Thailand?
Is Ethiopia?
Is Nigeria?
Is India? (they are a power waiting to happen though, and when they do Maryam; they will be a lot harsher to the Islamic aggression than the PC West; ditto China)

Please stop with the "woe is me; Islam is the victim"

There are none. Lots of muslims believe the media and are puzzled and think it must be another group, but I think it is a fake story.(*

LOL ... you are all a bunch of clowns. I may also start believing that the media is concocting stories about Muslims, if I was smoking something heavy! If you don't believe in the consistency of the media stories about Islamix through-out the non-islamic world, then obviously, a good doctor would be able to help you about that.

It is strange how you believe T. Mo was a peace loving person which is contrary to what is actually written about him in Kuran-

@maryam

Since you're a Muslim and worship Mohammad, would you explain the importance and/or religious relevance of the following behavior of the "Prophet" as reported in Muslim holy books (Hadith):

(1) Narrated 'Aisha: I used to wash the traces of Janaba (semen) from the clothes of the Prophet and he used to go for prayers while traces of water were still on it (water spots were still visible). (Book #4, Hadith #229)

(2) Narrated Sulaiman bin Yasar: I asked 'Aisha about the clothes soiled with semen. She replied, "I used to wash it off the clothes of Allah's Apostle and he would go for the prayer while water spots were still visible. " (Book #4, Hadith #231)

(3) Narrated 'Amr bin Maimun: I heard Sulaiman bin Yasar talking about the clothes soiled with semen. He said that 'Aisha had said, "I used to wash it off the clothes of Allah's Apostle and he would go for the prayers while water spots were still visible on them. (Book #4, Hadith #232)

(4) Narrated 'Aisha: I used to wash the semen off the clothes of the Prophet and even then I used to notice one or more spots on them. (Book #4, Hadith #233)

The truth maryan is that in the west, maturity comes soon enough to people in the west. It is called higher education and work.

Maryam:

Think about it this way:

How many of the great musicians and musical composers of human history were Muslim?

How many of the great painters and sculptors in the history of art were Muslim?
(Yeah, I know that they are denied the ability to do so, but that's beyond the point.)

How many of the great physicists of world history were Muslim?

How many of the great progressive medical advances in world history were brought forth by the efforts of Muslims?

How many advances in modern technology were brought about through the efforts of Muslims?

Name even ONE great Muslim individual who has furthered the advancement of all of mankind through some sort cultural, scientific, or technological feat.

Failure to do so is an indictment upon the whole rotten system. Islam is a barren wasteland. It produces nothing but ignorance and death.

Ynkedoodl2: I think I can explain these verses; its trying to say that mo lasted about, oh, all of two seconds when it came to pleasing a woman. But that's just the point isn't it? He never did please a woman; just himself.

Maybe Maryam should look at who some of the major shareholders are in Rueters; AP; and I believe a Saudi has (or tried to) get a small, but significant share holding in Fox.

3. How should non-Muslims view Muslim behavior after such events such as the Danish cartoons? Europe erupted, innocents were slaughtered, and thousands of Muslims paraded with signs promoting killing and beheading infidels. Only a few rare Muslim voices from the wilderness condemned the Muslims' intolerant and violent behavior.

Such events can easily be staged. It only takes a few. I went to a huge demonstration protesting against government actions. Apparently someone burned a flag. I never saw it but it was that, -and NOT the thousands of peaceful muslim and nonmuslim anti-war protestors- which was the only available image in the media.
Generally, non-muslims should not view muslims behaviour at all. Islam is perfect, muslims are not.
It was completely right to protest; how correctly protesting was done I do not know.

yohannbiimu: I may be wrong on this; but in terms of military advances I believe the Muslims were one of the first to shove gun powder down a barrel and blast away their opponents (with Greek city I think; but I could be mistaken).

The more I hear Muslims claiming that ignorance is the problem, I start thinking that it is wishful thinking on their part. It is knowledge and an awakening to the truth that is fueling the backlash against Islam.

Muslims wish that we could be kept ingorant.

@3rdtimelucky

Thanks! Actually my own theory holds that he was an incorrigible wanker. That on top of being a bi-sexual predator, pedophile, pirate and pretend prophet for profit.

And they (the Muslims) worship this fiend!

"Islam is perfect, muslims are not."

Does that include Mo? What about Isa?

If Islam is perfect Maryam, why can Allah do "all things" (read, go back on his word)

I do not like garden slugs; I don't want them near me, but I do not fear them.

@maryam

you wrote:

"Generally, non-muslims should not view muslims behaviour at all. Islam is perfect, muslims are not."

maryam, you are too stupid to respond to. In fact, you are so stupid that you DESERVE ISLAM, the religion of retards, by retards, for retards. Embrace and enjoy!

Ynkedoodl2 - well said!

"yohannbiimu: I may be wrong on this; but in terms of military advances I believe the Muslims were one of the first to shove gun powder down a barrel and blast away their opponents (with Greek city I think; but I could be mistaken)."

If that's true, it still doesn't speak for anything a Muslim has done to further the advancement of human beings on Earth. As I said in my final sentence, Islam only produces ignorance and death, and I stand by that statement.

Also, I'm not saying that advancements did not occur during Muslim occupation of former-non-Muslim lands. Many non-Muslims made scientific and mathmatical advances within the confines of Islamic-controlled territories, but a pitiful few ACTUAL Muslims ever were part of something that we can be thankful to them for. Islam has more to do with the retarding of human advancement than anything else.

4. Why don't Muslims allow non-Muslims to sit in on Friday sermons? Muslims are always welcome in my church. Are the clerics saying things they don't want non-Muslims to hear?

Why do you want to come? Friday is a very holy day, not a spectator sport. The sermon is (or should be) in Arabic, whether the congregation understand it or not, and the only other thing that goes on is prayer. If you want knowledge speak induvidually to a respected brother, but if you want to come to Friday prayer come to pray as a muslim.

Islam is perfect,(*-

LOL... it is a hell of a statement which is full of hot air... sorry Robert I didn't mean about your TV channel!

Could you please qualify how can you make such a monumental statement about a degenerate religion, Islam, the followers of which are terrorists; thugs; thieves; barbaric; rapists... you name anything seriously evil, it normally comes from Islamix in abundances?

Isn't it odd that only women Muslims come here to condemn us and ask us why we don't become Muslim too? I guess all the men are too busy...

yohannbiimu - I agree fully; hence my point (which I may be wrong on) about the use of gun powder. It is an advance; but in killing/conquest.

Ynkedoodl2 - My well said is re your description of Mo.

As for deserving Islam; some of my extended family are (very nominal) Muslims; and I feel sorry for them (the other day I had dinner with them, and his wife was wearing a skirt shorter than I'd ever let my wife wear!).

It is these people who we should be careful not to isolate. As for unquestioning blind believers (like Maryam); then yes, they get what they ask for.

The treatment: I believe the therapy will include education and outreach and kindness. Ignorance constitutes 90 to 95 percent of the problem; the remaining 5 percent of the problem will need to be dealt with by law enforcement.

So, if I undergo their "outreach", interact with them, read their holy books (which I have) and still conclude that their's is an intolerant faith prone to violence I become a "law enforcement" problem? Yeah, Islamofascism does not exist /sarcasm.

Actually, I believe that the Chinese were the first to use gunpowder in artillery and rocketry.

The sermon is (or should be) in Arabic (*-

My last post to you.. you'r pathetic moron, because you don't see the obvious racist remarks in your own statements. I agree with a previous post, who stated you deserve Islam. It is for pathetic morons like yourself.

You are also a coward, because you are a Muslim man pretending to be a woman, and linking your name to a young Christian woman. I don't think she knows that you are abusing her link. I hope Robert Spencer should ban people like you
.

Notice how Muslims are brainwashed to believe that Arabic is a superior language. I guess Allah can only understand Arabic. Verily Allah loves you more if you're Arab, eh?

What a joke!

yohannbiimu - like I said I could be wrong. I only thought the Chinese used rockets; as opposed to Ballistic use?

5 Why is it that 99% of the terrorist actions are committed by Muslims with little or no condemnation from the Muslim world?

This is the same as Q1. It is an odd question. I could just as easily ask "do you condemn torture and imprisonment without trial?" Of course you do. It's against everything you believe in. Yet America uses prolific torture against untried civilians, and runs concentration camps all over the globe. They would deny it happens, deny it's torture, deny it's unjust, and deny that they are themselves terrorists by any definition.
There is no terrorist threat (except from governments). It is an illusion staged to get your support for their seizing power. You are just as much victims of the deceit as we are.

Notice how Muslims are brainwashed to believe that Arabic is a superior language.

"Shakespeare is best read in it's original, superior Russian" -Chekov, Star Trek

I've encountered this many, many times before; people of different languages automatically assuming their's is the best, most intricate language (Heck, I knew a swedish woman who said it is better to read Shakespeare in Swedish as it is a more expressive language, when I quoted her the line above she didn't get it)

I agree with MusHuntCowboy. "Maryam" is a coward and incapable of facing their disgusting beliefs with a critical mind. There is nothing that any of us can say to her/him that is going to make a dent. He/she is utterly blind to the truth and is worthless to humanity.

Maryam-

Yet America uses prolific torture against untried civilians, and runs concentration camps all over the globe.

Link, please? Just because you assert something as true and can find many who believe that assertion does not make it true.

yohannbiimu - Yep you were right; I just Googled it then and found a heap of resouces saying it was the Chinese.

Seems the Muslims loose out there too!

They're using our own legal system to hide behind, so they can destroy that very same legal system...which is why we implemented the Patriot Act.

Our Constitution is NOT a suicide pact.
Now it's "Life, Liberty, and pursuit of all who threaten it."

Such lunacy on their part only serves to prove
Barry Goldwater's comments 4 decades ago right:

"Extremism in the defense of liberty is no vice! Moderation in the defense of liberty is no virtue!"
(I also found it ironic how many of the militants in this country have tried to omit that second part)

Islamic people built many monuments. They used the people of the countries they conquered as slaves to build some remarkable monuments. However, they also destroyed some pre-historic artifacts of many natives. They destroy them whenever they get an opportunity, for instance in Afghanistan about six years back. Pakies regularly piss on Churches, temples even Mosques which do not belong to the Sunni thread. The hate is embedded in their regular Friday prayers.

In Arabic, the hateful Islamic prayers sound very romantic to the Muslim ears. If you are a non-muslim and you listen to the same stuff, assuming you understand it, you’ll think you’ve either landed in Hell or having a very bad dream.

6. Why should we trust the words of Muslims about how Islam values human life and respects human rights when most of the worst abuses are occuring in Muslim lands on a systemic basis?

The worst abuses are actually coming from the most powerful country; America. But they aren't gonna tell you about it!
Islam is perfect, muslims are not. But if you think you can practice any better this pure life prescribed by our Creator, go on, show us!
*Believe in our all-powerful Creator Allah, and worship Allah with every moment of your day.
*Get up in the night to pray.
*Fast twice a week, three times midmonth and all through Ramadhan.
*Pray all five prayers at the mosque with concentration and devotion.
*Give money to relatives, orphans, travellers, the poor, beggars, and perform charitable deeds daily.
*Speak softly.
*Avoid sin, perform good deeds.
*Respect your parents and always obey them and never even sigh at them.
*Memorise the Qur'an in Arabic. Remember Allah in all you do.
*Eat correctly, drink correctly, respect elders, be kind to the young, teach and study, dress and behave modestly, consult with others before you act, enjoin good and forbid evil.
**And when you have done that, then tell me what Islam has to do with "terrorism"

"maryam," we all think you are a nitwit. Go away.

In spite of the efforts to the contrary, Islam will fall. It's rotting edifice is on its last throes. It will make one last desperate attempt to be victorious against Israel, and then it will collapse.

I say this not out of any 'phobia,' but rather because I believe that God's word is true, and I'm looking forward to seeing it fulfilled.

Maryam you poor ignorant muslim woman/man, whatever (i was going to use Akroyd's line in Saturday Night Live but I was raised to be polite - plus its not clear who or what maryam is)

You need to expand your mind with something called reality. Islam is the most violent belief system on earth and people around the globe are being slaughtered in the name of Allah.

What kind of god wants people slaughtered and converted by force? If Islam was so great you would think people would be converting willingly and in droves. But they are not.

You will find that soon enough most civilized people will stop buying this allah is perfect and peaceful garbage. The blood lust embodied in the koran is unbelievable which is probably why non-muslims are not welcome at friday services where these violent passages are likely promoted.

its interesting that those who have been programmed into a belief system, i.e., do not come into it based on mature reason, are the least tolerant of others.

I forgot who sung it, but there is a line from a great R&B song that could be applied to Islam

"...what's love got to do with it..."

Islam and love don't seem to have much in common.

One last thing for "maryam:"

It doesn't matter what "pure" life you lead, because Allah will send you to burn in hell anyway. The only sure way of escaping hell completely is to die as a Muslim "martyr." Anyone can do this. It does not require doing all of those rules and regulations. All that being a "martyr" requires is dying in the act of killing "unbelievers."

Your silly rules are ultimately meaningless. The only sure way to paradise (according to your "prophet") is to die in the act of killing infidels. Living does not assure you of this afterlife--ONLY DYING can do that.

What Muslims tell the world is give up freedom, fun, advancement, and maybe, just maybe there will be a heaven with virgins waiting for you....."

No, that is what your absurd PROPAGANDA tells the world muslims say. Use your head! Not one person would convert for a promise that weak.
The message of Islam is THERE IS ONLY ONE GOD and MUHAMMED IS HIS MESSENGER.
Thats all.
It's an amazing message because it confirms that God really does exist and life has meaning structure and purpose. That is why the learned and intelligent convert, not the promise of sex after death!
Most people believe in God but are a bit unsure how unthinkably powerful and magificent and unlike any being He is.
All you have to do is find out why muslims think so highly of Muhammed (peace be upon him) and know the Qur'an is true.

I refuse to be treated or cured. I rather enjoy being afflicted with this sickness. It's the only one that helps life to go on rather than weaken or end life.

That is why the learned and intelligent convert, not the promise of sex after death!

Really? Then why is the part of the population in the united states which is the fastest converting to Islam violent criminals who are imprisoned? Could it be the fact that Islam preaches an afterlife of joyous sex to those who visit harm on the non-believers and paint muslims at the same time victims and superior beings?

Nah, that couldn't be it.

the good dr eldin is absolutely correct, those terrorist are not muslims!
The good doctor said:
>>> Let the world know, American Muslims strongly condemn terrorism and all terrorists, whoever they are and wherever they may be. We love our country and are very proud to be American and Muslim.

I have seen the islamic pratice of "taqqiya" spoken of on this forum many times and i have come to recognize it when i see it!
Permit me to show you what muhammad said about muslims who commit crimes!

>>> þ*** Found in: Volume 8.
æÌÏÊ ÇáßáãÇÊ Ýí ÇáÍÏíË ÑÞã:
8.800.2:
Narrated `Ikrima from Ibn `Abbas:
Allah's Apostles said, "When a slave (of Allah) commits illegal sexual intercourse, he is not a believer at the time of committing it; and if he steals, he is not a believer at the time of stealing; and if he drinks an alcoholic drink, when he is not a believer at the time of drinking it; and he is not a believer when he commits a murder,"

So you see muslims while committing acts of terrorism are not muslims, if they are killed during the act of terrorism they become martyrs. If they survive they are muslims once again after the crime has been committed!

The Prophet said, "An adulterer, at the time he is committing illegal sexual intercourse is not a believer; and a person, at the time of drinking an alcoholic drink is not a believer; and a thief, at the time of stealing, is not a believer." Ibn Shihab said: `Abdul Malik bin Abi Bakr bin `Abdur-Rahman bin Al- Harith bin Hisham told me that Abu Bakr used to narrate that narration to him on the authority of Abu Huraira. He used to add that Abu Bakr used to mention, besides the above cases, "And he who robs (takes illegally something by force) while the people are looking at him, is not a believer at the time he is robbing (taking).þ

Come on folks, you know you can not believe a word that comes from the face of the demon possessed!
Muslim are not lying when they tell you those terrorist are not muslims. allah said it, muhammad preached it, you and I are supposed to believe it!

"Fear of islam can be treated, cured."

Wow, ya mean people STILL don't know how yet?
Americans found that cure long ago (though they don't use it as much these days)...same cure as for tyranny, as well as any threat to our life and liberty, and has worked since it was conceived over 200 years ago.

It's called a GUN...and the will to shoot back.
(islamofascists, like any tyrannical element, aren't as effective or as brave as they imply when someone is shooting back at them).

"Millions of innocent human beings have been mercilessly butchered in the name of your "god." Millions of people have been enslaved, butchered, and forced into submission"

No, they haven't. You are the victim of propaganda. Islam does not call for merciless butchery. Your statement is true of Christianity though, but equally does not reflect the values of that religion

The message is basically correct up to the point where he identifies that the problem is islamaphobia.

No Doctor, the problem is all internal to Islam. Jihadists existed long before there was a State of Israel. In fact, Germany, the UK, most of the countries in Eastern Europe, the Middle East, Africa, Asia, and all the countries in North and South America post dated Islamist Jihad by many centuries, 10 centuries in the case of the US.

We did not create the Jihadists. They were created as part of Isalm. The solution must come from inside Islam or an external force of non-Muslims will need to deal with the Jihadists.

Why would ANYONE convert to Islam for the promise of sex? You can get sex here on Earth!

bigcatgirl;

"If Islam is so perfect and a beautiful way of life, why are women so very oppressed? No, I am happy to be a Christian and believe in the God who saves."

That's just it, women are not oppressed in Islam. We are treasured and honoured and enjoy at least as many rights as men. The same God sent Moses, Abraham, Jesus,(alayhimus salaamn)and Muhammed(pbuh).

How utterly galling. And what a massive piece of projection. We don't "fear" Islam. We merely see it objectively as the false, immoral and dangerous, barbaric 7th century ideology that it is. On the contrary, it is Muslims who fear everything. It is Muslims who fear modernity. It is Muslims who fear a free society of open inquiry in which the truth about their Prophet can finally be told because they now live in a world that has invented the most modern technology for communication that no tyrannical Muslim dictator has been able to suppress. Muslims are the ones who are terrified because they haven't been able to impose their draconian blasphemy laws on free citizens of the world and they are desparate about the fact that the truth about their prophet is getting out and they can't do a DAMNED thing about it. Muslims are the ones who are fearful - not infidels.

It may well be the case that Muslims are immigrating massively into the west and there is little that we infidels can do about that fact. But there is still something we CAN do - which really frightens Muslims. And it's something we can do ruthlessly (and still honestly and nonviolently) for the next 1 or 2 decades before Muslims have the demographic numbers to overrun the west. And that something is to keep exposing the falseness of Islam. Exposing the falseness of islam depends on exposing the falseness and absurdity of the Koran as well as exposing the evil and immoral character of Muhammad.

Muslims may well get the better of us demographically. But while they're going about it over several decades, we still have the power to destroy their ideology in such a way that by the time they are demographically transcendent, the faith that makes them the human monsters that they are could have been destroyed utterly.

The more we see the evidence that our leaders are selling us out on the demographic front, the more we can pick up the slack on the intellectual front to destroy Muslim's faith in their obviously evil prophet and once he is is discredited, that's it for Islam.

That's why Muslims are the ones who are getting scared, in a real sense, and not us. We're not the ones whose identities are completely wrapped up in a lie. They are. Keep the pressure on. If our leaders are going to betray us on the demographic front, that doesn't mean the game is over. We still have truth and reason and the basic moral intuition that is shared by all other religions BUT Islam on our side. Muslims stand alone in terms of their moral code from every other major world religion. So we need to fight even harder on the front that is still open to us. Meanwhile, let the Muslims sweat. Let their fear grow - not over any threats of violence - but over something that ultimately matters even more to them and on which we can win hands down if we, as private global citizens, keep the pressure up to destroy their faith (which is so patently and obviously false to everyone BUT them anyway, that I am hard pressed to see why anyone could possibly complain about that approach). And most of all, its an approach that is firm in conviction but completely nonviolent. (Stopping Muslim immigration is also nonviolent and the most obvious nonviolent solution but it appears that our leaders have no intention of doing that which leaves us with nonviolent "Plan B").

(and we simply must exhaust all nonviolent solutions before moving towards Plans C and D)

because you are a Muslim man pretending to be a woman,

nope, I'm a woman, and it is forbidden for men to impersonate women and women to impersonate men.

maryam, your entire belief system is complete and utter PROPAGANDA. We've all read the verses from your "holy" writings that explain everything that we need to know about your disgusting "religion." We have studied the history of mankind, have weighed Islam upon the scales of it, and have found it VERY wanting. We have read the accounts of Islamic barbary and destruction of civiized people throughout the history of the world, and recognize that the blood-thirst of your god has not yet been quenched.

We know all that is needed to know about your religion. Your knowledge is apparently lacking.

BTW, this is why I enjoy Naseem's postings. At least "she" acknowledges that the Quran contains disgusting inconsistencies and anti-women teaching. I think "she's" going to toss the whole stinking religion in the toilet someday.

There is indeed a cure for islamophobia, muhammad developed it 1400 years ago in yathrib
(present day medina)its called "beheading" and he cured many of infidel with his cure!
As i see it we dont have a problem with islamophobia today we have a problem with infidelophobia and i suggest we adopt muhammads cure to bring a healthy mindset back to those poor sick muslims suffering from the chronic illness of infidelophobia!
It is truely heartbreaking to see so many muslims suffering from this dreaded disease especially when we have an islamic cure for it!
How can the muslims complain, its halal!

" you don't see the obvious racist remarks in your own statements. "

Arabic is a uniquely expressive language. Very clear, flexible and beautiful. Allah ta'ala has used the clearest language to speak to us in and anything else is less clear. Some is very hard to translate. That is why we all try to read it in the Arabic, and be familliar with Arabic to improve our understanding. There is no question of superiority of one race over another.


Name even ONE great Muslim individual who has furthered the advancement of all of mankind through some sort cultural, scientific, or technological feat

Try this site
http://www.1001inventions.com/
It's full of muslim's inventions and contributions to advancement.

I do not fear any of them. Knowledge is power and knowing the truth casts out fear.

I am confident in the truth. I can see at a mere glance what is true in regard to the cancerous growth in the world that is Islam.

Islam does nothing but consume human beings and their surroundings.

Islam discourages culture and science.

Islam forces human beings to submit to a belief system, rather than allow it to be scrutinized in a debate with other belief systems.

Islam tells women that their witness is worth half of that of a man.

Islam tells a raped woman that he must produce four male witnesses in order to bring a rapist to justice.

What about the results of this disgusting belief system is attractive to anyone?

maryam: "There is no question of superiority of one race over another."

You must be completely ignorant about what is going on in the Sudan right now. I'm going to go out on a limb and guess that you're a black American convert to Islam. (I could well be wrong on that as I haven't been following your comments closely at this site, although I recognize your name).

This is for maryam:
>>>Bukhari V1b7n331 The prophet said, “I have been given 5 things which were not given to anyone else. Allah made me victorious with terror. The earth was made for me. Booty was made lawful for me yet it was not lawful for anyone else. I was given the right of intercession on the day of doom. Every prophet used to be sent to his nation only, but I have been sent to all mankind.”

>>>Bukhari v9b87n127 The prophet said, “ I have been given eloquent speech and have been awarded victory by terror so the treasures of the earth are mine.”

As you see from the above hadiths maryam muhammad created islam as nothing more than a terrorist oganization!

>>>Asma bint Marwan, was a journalist who spoke critically of Mohammd and told her tribe to be wary of him.
Ishaq 676: Asma said: “You obey a stranger who encourages you to murder for booty. You are greedy men, is there no honor among you?”
Upon hearing those lines Mohammad said, “Will no one rid me of this woman?”
Umayr, a zealous muslim, decided to execute the prophet’s wishes. That very night he crept into the writer’s home while she lay sleeping surrounded by her young children. There was one at her breast. Umayr removed the suckling babe and then plunged his sword into the poet.
The next morning in the mosque, Mohammad, who was aware of the assassination, said, “You have helped Allah and his apostle” . Umayr said, “She had five sons, should I feel guilty?” “No, “ the prophet answered, “killing her was as meaningless as two goats butting heads.”

As you see maryam, according to muhammads own words he was nothing short of a murderer of innocent women and children!

>>>þ*** Found in: Volume 1.- 1.367: Narrated `Abdul `Aziz:
Anas said, 'When Allah's Apostle invaded Khaibar, we offered the Fajr prayer there yearly in the morning) when it was still dark. The Prophet rode and Abu Talha rode too and I was riding behind Abu Talha. The Prophet passed through the lane of Khaibar quickly and my knee was touching the thigh of the Prophet . He uncovered his thigh and I saw the whiteness of the thigh of the Prophet. When he entered the town, he said, 'Allahu Akbar! Khaibar is ruined. Whenever we approach near a nation (to fight) then EVIL will be the morning of those who have been warned.' He repeated this thrice. The people came out for their jobs and some of them said, 'Muhammad (has come).' (Some of our companions added, "With his army.") We conquered Khaibar, took the captives, and the booty was collected. Dihya came and said, 'O Allah's Prophet! Give me a slave girl from the captives.' The Prophet said, 'Go and take any slave girl.' He took Safiya bint Huyai. A man came to the Prophet and said, 'O Allah's Apostles! You gave Safiya bint Huyai to Dihya and she is the chief mistress of the tribes of Quraidha and An-Nadir and she befits none but you.' So the Prophet said, 'Bring him along with her.' So Dihya came with her and when the Prophet saw her, he said to Dihya, 'Take any slave girl other than her from the captives.' Anas added: The Prophet then manumitted her and married her."
Thabit asked Anas, "O Abu Hamza! What did the Prophet pay her (as Mahr)?" He said, "Her self was her Mahr for he manumitted her and then married her." Anas added, "While on the way, Um Sulaim dressed her for marriage (ceremony) and at night she sent her as a bride to the Prophet . So the Prophet was a bridegroom and he said, 'Whoever has anything (food) should bring it.' He spread out a leather sheet (for the food) and some brought dates and others cooking butter. (I think he (Anas) mentioned As-Sawaq). So they prepared a dish of Hais (a kind of meal). And that was Walima (the marriage banquet) of Allah's Apostle ."þ

As you see maryam according to muhammads own words and deeds he was nothing more than a murderer and a rapist!
This is not propaganda maryam, this is from islams holy books, the allah ispired words and deed of allahs messenger!

>>>Salih Bin ‘Abdul ‘Aziz Al al-Sheikh-hadith # 816
Abu Sa'id Al-Khudri, may Allah be pleased with him, reported:
We went out with Allah's Messenger (may peace be upon him) on the expedition to the Banu Al-Mustaliq and took captive some excellent Arab women. We were suffering from the absence of our wives, (but at the same time) we refrained from copulation with our female captives lest should we lose the right of asking ransom for them (in case they bear children for us). So we decided to have sexual intercourse with them but by observing 'azl (withdrawing the male sexual organ before emission of semen to avoid conception). But we said: We are doing an act whereas Allah's Messenger is among us; why not ask him? So we asked Allah's Messenger (may peace be upon him), and he said: It does not matter whether you perform `azl or not, for every soul that is to be born up to the Day of Resurrection will be born.
Hadith number in Sahih Muslim [Arabic only]: 2599

As you can see maryam muhammad condoned the rape of the wives and daughters of the men he slaughtered when muhammad and his godless muslim thugs attacked their vilages!
Are you going to tell us the hadiths are propaganda maryam?

>>>þ*** Found in: BOOK O: JUSTICE.
Chapter O-9.0: Jihad.O-9.4:
Jihad means to war against non-Muslims, and is etymologically derived from the word mujahada signifying warfare to establish the religion. And it is the lesser jihad.''The scriptural basis for jihad, prior to scholarly consensus (def: b-7) is such Koranic verses as:
1- ``Fighting is prescribed for you'' (Koran 2:216);
2- ``Slay them wherever you find them'' (Koran 4:89);
3- ``Fight the idolators utterly'' (Koran 9:36);
and such hadiths as the one related by Bukhari and Muslim that the Prophet (Allah bless him and give him peace) said:
``I have been commanded to fight people until they testify that there is no god but Allah and that Muhammad is the Messenger of Allah, and perform the prayer, and pay zakat. If they say it, they have saved their blood and possessions from me, except for the rights of Islam over them. And their final reckoning is with Allah'';

I think perhaps you need to read your unholy islamic satanic books for yourself maryam and stop letting your imam and husband lead you around by your nosering!

"Islam tells women that their witness is worth half of that of a man."

Well actually no, you have INFERRED that.
You have read a passage in the qur'an about court proceedure and ASSUMED a reason for the difference in male and female witnesses.
You should NEVER try to interpret the Words Of Allah without studying with a scholar for many years.

"Millions of innocent human beings have been mercilessly butchered in the name of your "god." Millions of people have been enslaved, butchered, and forced into submission"

No, they haven't. You are the victim of propaganda. Islam does not call for merciless butchery. Your statement is true of Christianity though, but equally does not reflect the values of that religion

"In the name of Allah, Most Merciful and Compassionate(???)

Go Out and Kill Jews, Christians, Buddhists and Hindus! "


INFILTRATE, OVERWHELM, SUBJUGATE AND THEN DEVOUR
Today It's the Gun and the Qur'an (Koran)...
Tomorrow It Will Be Nukes and the Qur'an

ISLAMIC CIVILIZATION?
What an oxymoron! Since when IS barbarism called civilization?
Islam is an anti-civilization cult par excellence. It destroyed every civilization it touched
and brought misery, poverty, ignorance and war in every country that it invaded!

FACT:

90%-95% OF ALL THE CONFLICTS ON THIS PLANET TODAY
INVOLVE MUSLIMS FIGHTING NON-MUSLIMS OR EACH OTHER!

There are many trouble spots around the world, but as a general rule, it's easy to make an educated guess at one of the participants: Muslims vs. Jews in "Palestine," Muslims vs. Hindus in Kashmir, Muslims vs. Christians in Africa, Muslims vs. Buddhists in Thailand, Muslims vs. Russians in the Caucasus, etc...
ISLAM: "Religion of Peace?"

FACT:

1.4 BILLION Muslims in the World
280 Million Americans
5½ Million Israelis Surrounded by 350 Million Arab Muslims!!!

FACT:

OVER THE LAST FIFTY YEARS...
The world population of Christians increased by 47%
The world population of Buddhists increased by 63%
The world population of Muslims increased by 235%
Intermarriage, the Crusades, the Spanish Inquisition, the Nazi Holocaust, pogroms
and over 100 years of unrelenting Arab/Islamic terrorism have taken its toll.
The State of Israel is the Jewish Peoples' last reservoir and stronghold against
the end of a five thousand year history! Sadly, over the last fifty years,
the world Jewish population has DECREASED by 4%


FROM THE KORAN ITSELF...
"HEIL HITLER" Now Upgraded to "ALLAH AKBAR?"

You may already know about this one: O ye who believe! Take not the Jews and the Christians for friends. [al-Ma'idah 5:51.11]

But did you know that there are 123 verses in the Quran concerning fighting and killing for the cause of Allah? Here are but a few passages:

-Muslims are encouraged to be wholly occupied (Sura 2:273) with fighting for Allah's cause.

- Allah will give "a far richer recompense to those who fight for him" (Sura 4:96).

- Regarding infidels (unbelievers), they are the Muslim's "inveterate enemies" (Sura 4:101). Muslims are to "arrest them, besiege them and lie in ambush everywhere" (Sura 9:5) for them. They are to "seize them and put them to death wherever you find them, kill them wherever you find them, seek out the enemies of Islam relentlessly" (Sura 4:90). "Fight them until Islam reigns supreme" (Sura 2:193). "Cut off their heads, and cut off the tips of their fingers" (Sura 8:12).

- If a Muslim does not go to war, Allah will kill him (Sura 9:39). He is to be told, "the heat of war is fierce, but more fierce is the heat of Hell-fire" (Sura 9:81).

- A Muslim must "fight for the cause of Allah with the devotion due to him" (Sura 22:78)

- Muslims must make war on the infidels (unbelievers) who live around them (Sura 9:123).

- Muslims are to be "ruthless to unbelievers" (Sura 48:29).

- A Muslim should "enjoy the good things" he has gained by fighting (Sura 8:69).

- A Muslim can kill any person he wishes if it be a "just cause" (Sura 6:152).

- Allah loves those who "fight for his cause" (Sura 61:3).
Anyone who fights against Allah or renounces Islam in favor of another religion shall be "put to death or crucified or have their hands and feet cut off alternative sides" (Sura 5:34).

- Whoever changes his Islamic religion, kill him. Sahih Al-Bukhari (9:57)

- Slay the idolaters wherever you find them, and take them captives and besiege them and lie in wait for them in every ambush. (Koran 9:5)

- Take him and fetter him and expose him to hell fire. (Koran 69:30-37)

- I will instill terror into the hearts of the unbelievers, Smite ye above their necks and smite all their finger tips of them. (Koran 8:12)

- They should be murdered or crucified or their hands and their feet should be cut off on opposite sides. (Koran 5:33)

- Know that paradise is under the shades of swords. Sahih al-Bukhari Vol 4 p55

And Speaking of Paradise...

"There will be "gushing fountains" and everyone "shall recline on jeweled couches face to face, and there shall wait on them immortal youths with bowls and ewers and a cup of purest wine." Suras (or chapters) 55 and 56 of the Quran.

"Therein are bashful virgins whom neither man nor jinnee will have touched before ... virgins as fair as corals and rubies," sura 55. A few lines later, you might remind them of "virgins chaste and fair ... they shall recline on green cushions and fine carpets."

"The smallest reward for the people of Paradise is an abode where there are 80,000 servants and 72 wives, over which stands a dome decorated with pearls, aquamarine, and ruby, as wide as the distance from Al-Jabiyyah [a Damascus suburb] to Sana'a.'"

It will be the day, God willing, you spend with the women of paradise...Know that the gardens of paradise are waiting for you in all their beauty, and the women of paradise are waiting, calling out, "Come hither, friend of God."

^^^Just thought i'd share some PROPAGANDA with maryam.

You yourself may be a VICTIM of DENIAL.

Feel free to address any of this , especially the Qoutes from the Qu'ran.

You're talking to a Polytheist and a Pagan. I am my own Savior and follow my own Path back to the Ultimate Source.

My GOD is THAT God -that created all living things - and ALL humans are HIS children. As ALL things are His children - He does not take the side of one over the other - but absolutely loves all humans and desires for them to live side by side - whatever their thoughts.


I am Allat - the living Goddess

The truth is that women, whom their witness is half as that of a man, have to produced 4 male witnesses in the case of a rape, the husbands are allowed to beat up, and cannot get around without a male. This is how women are treated in the Muslim world. No wonder Muslim women come to the west in order to get away from that.


You must be completely ignorant about what is going on in the Sudan right now. I'm going to go out on a limb and guess that you're a black American convert to Islam. (I could well be wrong on that as I haven't been following your comments closely at this site, although I recognize your name).

whats happening in suadan is exactly what allah and muhammad commanded the muslims do to blacks!
According to muhammads words in hadiths ,which are claimed to be the allah inspired words and deeds of muhammad. allah created the blacks to be slaves to the arab and turks!

>>>Blacks are to be slaves]-Tabari II :11 Shem, the son of Noah, was the father of the Arabs, the Persians, and the Greeks, Ham as the father of the black Africans an Japheth was the father of the Turks and of Gog and Magog who were cousins of the Turks. Noah slept with his genitals exposed. Noah prayed that the prophets and apostles would be descended from Shem and kings would be from Japheth. .He prayed that the African’s color would change so that their descendants would be slaves to the Arabs and Turks.

>>>Tabari II;21 Ham begat all those who are black and curly haired, while Japheth begat all those who are full faced with small eyes, and Shem begat everyone who is handsome of face with beautiful hair. Noah prayed that the hair of Ham’s descendants would not grow beyond their ears, and that whenever his descendants met the children of Shem, the latter would enslave them.
>>>Bukhari v9b89n256 Allah’s apostle said, “You should listen to and obey your ruler even if he is a black African slave whose head looks like a raisin.”

Should someone tell louis farakhan?

ummahnewslinks,

Thanks for the info. It is good that there are Christians who justly protest against this garbage.

"nope, I'm a woman, and it is forbidden for men to impersonate women and women to impersonate men"

Who forbides you? What forbids you?

Get out of the box - and do something daring - you are God - and since you are GOd - you're certainly NOT going to harm yourself...for God's sake.

Do something daring - girl. See how free you'll feel! Wear a bikini - or a pant suit.

Go out and have fun - dance...have a little wine. It's good for the heart...and Soul.

Come on - you can do it.

Allat

Maryam; I checked out your site http://www.1001inventions.com/. It is an Islamic / joint Dhimmi site. Yep I'll believe their revisionist history any day!

Besides; most of the links did not work! I tried the medical one for starters and another; and no go!

They did show some tools of medicine; boasting that they are still used today! Wow! I'm impressed! NOT! The ancient Egyptians were performing brain surgery 1000+years before mad mo came along; funnily enough with medical tools! Is there anything original that Muslims have invented without stealing from other cultures?

Oh they did have a picture of a man trying to fly on a big glider! I guess as history doesn’t talk about it much he must have died doing it; not quite Wright Brothers stuff! (who were “fundamentalist” Christians by today’s standards)

Oh, as for having to study Koran in Arabic and be a full on scholar in order to understand Gods message; what a merciless god you believe in! So tell us; what happened to illiterate Mohammed then? A real god of mercy would engineer his message so that any who read it would be able to get the message (providing they had half a brain; which you are proving that many Muslims sadly don't; or don't use it).

As for Mo being his messenger? Why did god choose a practicing pedophile to be his greatest messenger? How many miracles did he perform according to Koran? Did he raise anyone from the dead? Was he a direct creation of god (like Jesus of the Bible?) rather than being born of men? How many little children did Isa take advantage of? Why didn't god tell Mo that sleeping with six year olds was wrong? After all it contradicts not only one's conscience, but also the very words of Isa who said not to harm one hair on a child's head? Nope Mo was "allowed" to sexually exploit little girls and women in general, “allah” said so.

maryam; why are you living in the West, an atheist dominated society that yes, has a Christian heritage? Why are you not living in dar Al Islam paradise like Afghanistan?

Your Tayyiqa skills are pathetic.

maryam:

I'll admit it. I do fear Islam. Where the Muslims tread no grass grows. Islam leaves nothing but a wasteland in its wake.

I fear and loathe Islam, as the two belong together, Deimos and Phobos, the two moons of the planet of war, Mars.

We've had it with you Muslims. Over one third of Americans dislike you and your filthy pseudo religion. That's over a hundred million people. And we're getting to the breaking point.

You'd best start realizing that now. The hounds of war will unleash on Islam and the Middle East is the battleground. What has happened up till now has been just a prelude. I don't like to think of the terrible devastation of nuclear weaponry, but you and your fellow Muslims are asking for it. And I'm not going to feel sorry about it when it happens.

Islama delenda est.

Maryam: "You should NEVER try to interpret the Words Of Allah without studying with a scholar for many years."

Maryam - you do realize that the Koran was written 1400 years ago and that your own intelligence as a 21st century woman is perfectly able to grasp the basic message of the koran as written 1400 years ago as well as the laws of islam that were written at least 1000 years ago? Why do you sell your intellect short? You live in the 21st century. Why do you assssume that human beings who existed over 1,000 years ago are more capable than you are of reading the Koran and coming to some conclusions about what it says? You can also read the statements of the most famous Islamic jurists of the last 1,000 years as to what Islam is about. So why - as a modern 21st century woman - are you so willing to basically sell yourself off as a slave to an imperialistic, misogynistic system with a 1400 year history that you refuse to even question at all? Haven't you any pride at all? Are you retarded? I seriously doubt it. (Or did someone convince you that were retarded?) I think you're thoroughly capable of reading and exploring Islam's texts from an intellectual point of view. I think you must have some major psychological hang-up (like most Muslims) which is merely preventing you from doing so.

There are actually a number of religions that have at times identified those of African origin as being of darker complexion due to some "curse" or "mark" from God. In their first inception, both the Mormons and Jehovah's Witnesses claimed that "negroes" where thus marked by God because of an eternal punishment upon them.

Islam isn't the only one, but they're probably the first. They certainly were the first people on earth who enslaved black Africans as a common practice.

If Maryam can make it over to the links section, she may find the site: "Apostates from Islam" to be some thoughtful, introspective post halal dinner reading. Are they traitors or just free thinking misunderstanders of islam with too much time on their hands? Just a rhetorical thought.

Caroline, If Maryam is a rational , Logical and Moral person, and does as you advise , she will HAVE to admit her Religion is Flawed and False. I absolutely understand that Fear. it's not to excuse her, but can we expect her to see the truth? If she has any wits about her, yes.

Free your mind and Soul Maryam

G.C. Scott,

You have an excellent point. I wonder what Maryam's take is on the whole apostate thing? Does she believe that once Islamic, always Islamic? Or is that not covered in the Islam 101: Islam is beautiful class, which seems to be the only one she has taken.

It is very sad to see these poor brainwashed folks go on and on about what they know not. Remember Jihadlove from right before Thanksgiving? He got religion, and quick, once we pointed out to him that he could lose his life for falling away. It is puzzling to think that people embrace a faith that they don't know anything about and then try to proselytize without the slightest inkling about what their new found faith entails. I say let Maryam go live in Egypt for a while, or better yet, under the oppressive regime of Ahmadinejad and THEN let her tell us all about the beauty, peace and respect she gets from being a woman in Islam.

I think that those with a Pollyanna-like outlook towards Islam need to go to Gaza, to find out what Islam REALLY breeds. I can't think of a better (or worse) place on Earth where Islam has doomed a people to their ultimate fate of disgusting submission to this evil cult of death.

nope, I'm a woman, and it is forbidden for men to impersonate women and women to impersonate men.

Rules, rules, rules---so many stupid, asinine rules to control the muslim mind and body. You people are little more than programmed robots.
I can understand that no macho muslim male would subject his honor to insult and shame by a filthy, inferior, subhuman woman. Women are beneath men according to the qur'an, so naturally it would be forbidden for women to impersonate men. However, taqiyya covers a broad spectrum of deceit and anything is permissible in islam to deceive the kuffar and advance the cause of satanic islam. That would explain the bomb laden male terrorists who skulk around in burkhas to disguise their peaceful intentions to blow up a crowd of innocent women and children.

There is absolutely no way you or any other muslim can "know" the qur'an is true. You can believe it is true, but you cannot prove it. Many religious scholars have presented ample evidence to prove that it is a pile of smoldering camel dung.

"allat:
Written into Islam is the duty of education, kindness and care for children. Also care for your wife.
In the West they tend to extend childhood. Sometimes way too far into adulthood. But Islam encourages responsibility and maturity, and in countries with more natural lives, you find that 6year olds can tend flocks and cook meals. Fifteen year-old young men caring properly for two wives and four childrn-no easy task!" Maryam


Awyyyy... Please speak no more. It's already bad enough your 52 year old prophet (whatever) married a 6 year old baby.

Here is something for you:
http://www.prophetofdoom.net/Feedback_Muslim_Woman_Defends_Oppression.Islam


The problem with Dr. Eldin's analysis is that he wants to diagnose and treat a perfectly rational fear -- fear based on thousands of acts of terrorism by his brother Muslims. Someone had better tell the good Doctor that, given the murderous and violent history of Muslims, it would be irrational not to be fearful of those that share his freakish beliefs.
If Dr. Eldin was really interested in dispeling irrational thoughts and behavior, he would call for an analysis and treatment of his fellow Muslims. Maybe then he can cure a few people of their belief that Jews are decended from Apes, Women are inherently stupid, and that Jews drain the blood from Christian children for use in baking bread. But these, of course, are perfectly rational beliefs, in no need of analyses or treatment. After all, they come from Allah, and who's going to argue with Allah.

When they Take to the streets and Burn an Effigie of Ahmadinejad or Bin Laden then i will give them some credit, till then i see them as Complacent silent ACCOMPLICES!

l think that hell would freeze over before that happens. the best cure is destroy the disease, that would be islam.

Maryam is a Unity Mitford / Lord Haw Haw type. Actually that is a bit unfair on Unity, who although an out and out Nazi and close froend of Hitler, retained enough patiotism to shoot herself on the outbreak of war. Maryam would delight in the overthrow of everything that her country stands for.

maryam is a probable male jihadist troll. The only rerquirement to that club is a healthy new or old outlook towards Islam. Couple that with the fact that NO pro-Islamic internet site will ever print a diparaging remark by an infidel, and it makes for a nice escapist interlude to the unfortunate reality that we are living in.

The beauty is that we Judeo-Christians need not lie about everything about our beliefs and our existence every day. Not lie to the world, but actually lie to ourselves.

No woman in her right mind would endorse Islam. Single men in bars pray to meet stupid women like that, burqua or not.

Forget addressing Muslims head on, unless absolutely necessary. Attack Islam, in general, with everything you got.

Regards

I wonder what the numbers are in regards to People converting ( willingly )To Islam ?

It's hard to believe that a sane , rational , concientious person could choose the teachings of Muhammad over the multitude of PEACEFUL Tolerant faiths out there.

We know that most all Muslims are Brainwashed since childhood , but it takes a special kind of Disturbed soul to actually seek out and CHOOSE Islam.

(see John Walker " Taliban " Linhd, and Adam Gadahn , aka " Azzam the AMERICAN " .

"Islam in the media is seen as violent, aggressive, threatening, supportive of terrorism, and engaged in a clash of civilization"..

Funny, this media , I have yet to see it. I have been looking, but it just can't be found.

Fear of Islam?

No, just see islam as the enemy. Reject it. It has it's arms wrapped around too many, and it's grasp on those it holds needs to be broken.

Why would ANYONE convert to Islam for the promise of sex? You can get sex here on Earth!

Not in the Islamic world. Young men are raised to be so fearful of women in that twisted world, that many never have sex until they're married. That unnatural situation goes a long way in explaining the rampant homosexuality in the Muslim world, and the obsession with martyrdom by so many young Muslim males. It's not religion that motivates these young men, it's the promise of experiencing something that would be considered only natural in any civilized society.
This also explains why you see very few Shiite suicide killers. Shiites believe in temporary marriages, so they don't have to kill themselves to experience sex with a woman.

rational Muhammad aka NaziAllah didn't know that the ratio of women and men is 50:50. That means the supposedly "perfect" Muhammad made it so that only the lucky Muslim males can have a woman. Yet, who knows what he knew since he couldn't read: couldn't check anything wrote for him.
