Jihad Watch

Exposing the role that Islamic jihad theology and ideology play in the modern global conflicts

Fitzgerald: Smiling damned villains

May 12, 2007 8:22 am By Hugh Fitzgerald

“I could be joking and cutting their throats in the next second. It’s a strategy.” — Tarik Shah

This is not a sentiment unique to him. It is part of the training, a part of which many are proud. For it means that someone has truly mastered — to smile, and smile, when there is murder in your heart — the art of deception And deception is central to Islam. How else could numerically much smaller and civilizationally much poorer and more primitive Arabs have conquered such vast territories, populated by more numerous and much more advanced Christians and Jews, and Zoroastrians, and then later Buddhists and Hindus, if not by often having recourse to “deception”? How often did Muhammad deceive his enemies? What was Al-Hudaibiyya if not a grand deception, the treaty with the Meccans that, as Majid Khadduri and so many others have noted, is the basis for all subsequent Muslim treaty-making with Infidels?

Deception, deception, deception. And Americans are possibly the most naive people in the world — just look at any college or high school yearbook, at those hopeful, smiling, never-had-to-confront-evil-or-endure-real-hardship faces, of young Americans. They are not prepared. Life has not prepared them. Their parents have not prepared them. Their studies have not prepared them.
They need to make up for lost time. This website, and a half-dozen others, are a good place to start. Help others find this website, and those books. Keep educating as many people as you can. Then books — “Why I Am Not a Muslim” and “The Dhimmi” and “The Truth About Muhammad” and “The Legacy of Jihad” and “Islam and Dhimmitude” and “Infidel” and a dozen others. The best guides for the mass audience are Robert Spencer’s “Onward Muslim Soldiers” and “The Myth of Islamic Tolerance” and “The Politically Incorrect Guide to Islam and the Crusades.” Read those. Thoroughly assimilate the material. Now you are properly prepared to go to any Mosque Outreach, engage in any debate.

Some time ago a poster here wrote: “They have opened an ISLAMIC CENTER in my town. I am not sure how I feel on this one. Seemingly peaceful thus far.”

You’re “not sure” how you feel about the opening of an Islamic Center in your town. And so far it’s “peaceful”? Of course it’s “peaceful.” What did you expect? The peaceful smiling face of Islam. Mosque Outreach. Muslim-Christian “dialogues” in which every conceivable means will be used to fool Infidels, and prevent them from even hearing about the Hadith and the Sira (the biography of Muhammad), much less their contents. The Qur’an is a different matter, because unless you read and re-read it with care, and with some kind of non-Muslim-supplied guide, you will not understand it. Get the books above, and others. The enemy has just established a beachhead in your town. That’s the only way to describe it. Do you love your children? Do you want them to understand the world, the world that is rushing towards them? Give them these books. Show them these websites. And spread the word.

And go to that “Mosque Outreach.” You”ll see there that the whole thing is down to a science. “War is deception,” said Muhammad. So as long as Islam remains Islam, why should Infidels assume that the feigning will ever come to an end? The only thing one needs to know is the doctrine of Islam, the 1350-year history of how that doctrine has been worked out, and the testimony of our best, most acute informants: the defectors from Islam, the apostates and those who are Muslim-for-identification-purposes-only Muslims who genuinely wish to warn us (see Magdi Allam) about the menace.

It is they, and the Western students of Islam, who are worth learning from — both those who have managed to obtain posts, and those who have been shut out, very deliberately and carefully, by the army of academic apologists for Islam. If those apologists were dealt with appropriately, many of them would not only be held up for ridicule, but be stripped of the sums they have received from Muslim interests, both directly and indirectly. And some, upon thorough investigation, would be punished for what amounts to putting their own countries in danger through intellectual treason, or what might be called a “trahison des faux clercs.”
