Pamela Geller: 1001 pieces of Islamic supremacist propaganda: fabricated exhibit comes to D.C.

Muslim inventions? Give us a break!!!

Muslims have never been about innovation. Islam was born in the 7th century and Muslims are bound and determined to keep it there. That’s where Muslim priorities lay.

And it’s all about priorities. Here’s an example.

Several years ago the Kuffir Space Gods had the bright idea of sending a Muslim (a Malay) into space. (Why? Some sort of outreach?) Only the Kuffirs could do such a thing because, on their own, the Muslims could never even think of such an adventure. Along the same lines that the new Muslim mega-clock in Mecca could never have been built without the ingenuity of the Kuffir. “O Allah [as in ‘I’ll hava Coke, or a Pepsi’], why have you cursed the best of people [the Quran-inspired descriptor used by Muslims to identify themselves] with no brains, but have amply supplied the infidels with knowledge & clear thinking, leaving us so ashamed and in poverty.”

But the Malaysian Space Agency (huh? who knew such an agency even existed!), a part of the Dept of Islamic Development Malaysia (cough, cough, “Islamic Development” exists in the same universe as “dry water”), wrestled with the greatest technical problem of the entire then-upcoming flight of going beyond the earth’s atmosphere. That problem, How to face Mecca from outer space?

That question, yes, that question, was the priority.

The result, A Guideline of Performing Ibadah at the International Space Station (ISS), which concludes, “It is hoped that this guideline could assist the Muslim Astronaut to ensure the success of the mission and at the same time attaining the redha (pleasure) of Allah SWT.”

Get that? The purpose of this nonsensical “guideline” (giggle) is to help the Muslim “ensure the success of the mission.”

This pdf guideline is found here,

This guideline also gives instruction on how to handle death in space. In case the deceased cannot “be brought to Earth for normal funeral process,” then “the deceased should be buried in space with a simple funeral process.”

Whew! A load off my mind. Leave it to the Muslim to come up with the really, really penetrating questions facing us all.

Except, how is one “buried” in space?

There are other reviews that are more benign "isn't this wonderful?"

Interesting MEMRI clip from Saudi Arabia saying all innovations come from the WEST!

#3547 - Saudi Shura Council Member Ibrahim Al-Buleihi: Progress for Arab and Islamic World Can Only Come from Western Civilization
The Internet, Rotana Khalijiya TV (Saudi Arabia) - July 23, 2012 - 05:10

From what I've read, while there were a few geniuses among the medieval Muslims -- after all, wherever there are humans there normally appears a genius from time to time -- there was never anything in their culture to nurture, propagate and build on the work of those few geniuses.

And as pointed out above, many innovations attributed to Muslim culture were actually accomplished by non-Muslims, some even slaves. The implications being not that the non-Muslims were simply superior people, but rather people educated by a superior culture.

Islam holds that Allah is supreme, bound by no law, and can do anything at any time. As such, there can be no "laws of nature". That would imply a limit on the powers of Allah. The very notion is heretical.

So if there are no laws of nature to discover, what's to investigate or study?

In the west (and most of the rest of the world) it is held that the creator created the world, and that's that. The world is what it is, and as such is a valid object of study.

In Islam it is held that Allah creates the world afresh in every moment. There is no finality to creation. Therefore, nothing you can count on to be there tomorrow.

Now it's impossible to believe that ALL the Mohammedans are so crack pot as to take this stuff literally in the context of day to day living. No planning whatever would be possible.

But in setting the intellectual and moral tone for the intelligentsia, the schools (such as they are) and the upper classes, those doctrines are mortally toxic.

What rich man is going to found a scientific university if the local religious authorities -- who may well be his neighbors and friends of his ruler -- declare that the basic conceptions of science are heresy? And heresy in the Mohammedan context, where heresy is punishable by death.

Mohammedan culture is a desert to the human mind.

Why else would such a large population produce almost nothing of note and originality for a thousand years? Do you even buy Arabian electronics? Omani software? Tunisian built high efficiency cars? Indonesian watches? Malaysian medicines?

Do you read Iraqi patents? Have you ever heard of one?

Mohammedan culture is a desert to the human mind.

And nothing is going to change until the Muslims themselves face that.

Guys and gals - you are all aspirational to me. Thank God for the freedom we have and we need to retain it. Obama & Co are working frantically to erode it away from us and dilute it to a point our young generation will doubt our own achievements. Islamists may be worthless inventors but they are top-notch deceivers. They are in the process of deceiving the American people - no doubt they will be successful in many ways. Most people careless about finding the facts(for instance Obama supporters). There are too many people like them. There are very few people who have a focus on Stealth Jihad. We need to do more, get more people involved in educating them about "the Truth About Islam". The regular people are getting conned day in and day out by Muslims and their buddies which includes a large number of lesbians and other groups that Islam will attack and destroy within a pulse-beat. Islam is in a full swing with the direct help from Obama. Islam is a great destroyer - there are 1001 evidences around the World to prove that. Why don't they allow an exhibition to show that to the New Yorkers? why don't they allow to teach that to our children in schools?

this endorsed by the government, cooperated with celebrities and by "national geographic" acclaim devoted to history, quite alarming.

The great age of Islam was not ended by the Crusades, the Turks, or the Mongols. It was ended by Dhimmi peoples converting to Islam to avoid being soaked for jizya and being treated like dirt. Hence, there was no "golden age" of Islamic civilization, but a "golden age" of the Dhimmi peoples who were busy preserving the past and carrying out commerce under the rule of Muslims--who contributed very little, it seems.

While I'm at it, I'd like more references to the Jews, Christians, Zoroastrians, Hindus, and who-not under Islamic rule who contributed--the names, dates, religious community, and places.

@sean: I went to the link, and it was one of the most outrageous pieces of nonsense that huffpo has ever published. To give credit where it is due, I note that a number of the posters there called the bluff.

They (the scum far Left and the Muslims) DESPISE Pam because she's a good-looking, articulate, intelligent anti-Islamist.

As for the Muslims trying to take credit for our inventions: it fucking DISGUSTS me. Yet, perhaps more disgustingly in some ways, it doesn't surprise me.

Not only do they come and aggressively assert their shitty, backwards Pak/Islamic identity in our nations, they go one further and attempt to negate ours.

And they wonder why the majority of native-Western people don't like them.

Islam invented absolutely NOTHING. It simply violently invaded and enslaved many previously Greek, Christian countries, (and India,) destroyed them, and then, centuries later, pretended to rediscover their inventions.

Islam is a barbaric, might-makes-right-based, predatory parasite. It stifles thought, invents nothing, makes nothing, and does nothing but enslave and live off the works of all the civilized people it attacks.

Islam’s own most official instruction manual, the Qur’an, declares islam was created by “god” to violently destroy and replace all “other” religions and cultures in the world. The subsequent actions of their followers confirm this.

Further, they have declared it their “right” to murder anyone who even verbally declares their defensive opposition to the moslem’s attacks, in declaring it “blasphemy” to resist their extortions.

And it’s quite simple, really, to see how and why this is: our “Western culture” is based on Confucius’ (wholly Eastern,) Chinese morality, on the Golden Rule of Law (basically: Do Not Attack First! and on “THOU SHALT NOT KILL!”) and so we enjoy trust, progress and civilization.

Islam, however, is based on the exact opposite – on the immoral, brazen rule of chaos, (basically: “It’s our holy right and duty to always attack all ‘the others’ first!” and on “THOU SHALT KILL!”) and so they suffer from distrust, stagnation, and barbarism.

;-)

To some extent these Islamic forays to plunder and appropriate other cultures' achievements are a continuation of the predatory/parasitic features of Islam that have been pervasive since its foundation.

However, they can also be viewed as rather pathetic attempts to claim retrospective relevance and significance by a people who are totally irrelevant to the development of the modern world.

A term for the suicidal PC Dhimmitude of the Leftist West:
"Death by Islam".

interesting clip from MEMRI, a saudi shura memeber says all progress comes from the West:

http://www.memritv.org/clip/en/3547.htm

Much of what they're touting are evidence of better societies that existed before Islam suppressed them by the scimitar. It would be like Stalin promoting Orthodox icons as evidence of soviet art.
In terms of science: Remember the Astro-Arab Saudi prince who was concerned about directing his prayers when orbiting.

Gentlemen, Oh gentlemen !!! The Wright brothers were late commers in the field of flight. Do you not recall that the 'Prophet and Messenger' of Allah flew from Medina to Jerusalem one night in about 625 CE on a 747 model Al-Buraq.
He also invented the Trench and a means of communicating with an omniscient deity. Please don't tell anyone I said so, but he also invented the Quran.

I fondly recall those 1960s National Geographic covers featuring African women's naked boobies.
