Victimhood? Most Islamic countries would murder Will. My latest in PJ Media:
No matter how high the jihad body count rises, the Left clings to the notion that the only reason why anyone in America is suspicious of Islam or Muslims is because of “bigotry” and “Islamophobia.” But now the establishment propaganda media’s favorite Muslim, Reza Aslan, has a solution: a TV show featuring Muslims being “normal,” and maybe even cute. Yeah, that’ll fix everything.
“What changed people’s minds was ‘Will and Grace,’ was ‘Modern Family,’ was watching people who were gay on television being, you know, ‘normal,’” says Aslan, as he threatens to inflict upon us a self-righteous, fatuous, virtue-signaling Muslim family sitcom. Because, you see, “stories have the power to breakthrough the walls that separate us into different ethnicities, different cultures, different nationalities, different races, different religions.”
And, apparently, forget about jihad terror. Because “bigotry is not a result of ignorance, it’s a result of fear.” If the gay character in “Will & Grace” traveled to Saudi Arabia or Iran and made it known that he was gay, would he have had anything to fear? Don’t be ignorant!
Aslan’s premise is just another spurious claim of Muslim victimhood from someone who has made a tidy living in the Muslims-Are-Victims industry (he even calls himself “cable news’s favorite Muslim”) — and it is more muddled thinking from a spectacularly muddled thinker. The fallacy of his reasoning lies in the fact that when “Will & Grace” aired, there were no international gay terror groups mounting terror attacks in the U.S. and around the world, and boasting of their imminent conquest of the U.S.
The suspicion that Americans have of Islam comes from jihad terror and Islamic supremacism, not from bigotry, and Americans know this distinction, despite the best efforts of people like Reza Aslan to obscure it and make people feel guilty for opposing jihad terror. Some slick TV show depicting funny, warm, attractive, cuddly Muslims would not end jihad terror, or blunt concern about it — it would only serve to further the idea that resisting jihad violence was somehow “bigoted.”
This is not the first time Aslan has revealed his abject intellectual vacuity. He regularly makes howling errors of fact, including his ridiculous claim that the idea of resurrection “simply doesn’t exist in Judaism,” despite numerous passages to the contrary in the Hebrew Scriptures. He has also referred to “the reincarnation, which Christianity talks about” — although he later claimed that one was a “typo.” In yet another howler he later insisted was a “typo,” he claimed that the Biblical story of Noah was barely four verses long — which he then corrected to forty, but that was wrong again, as it is 89 verses long. Aslan claimed that the “founding philosophy of the Jesuits” was “the preferential option for the poor,” when in reality, that phrase wasn’t even coined until 1968. He called Turkey the second most populous Muslim country, when it is actually the eighth most populous Muslim country. He thinks Pope Pius XI, who issued the anti-fascist encyclical Mit Brennender Sorge, was a fascist. He thinks Marx and Freud “gave birth to the Enlightenment,” when it ended in the late 18th century, before either of them were born. He claims that “the very first thing that Muhammad did was outlaw slavery,” when in fact Muhammad bought slaves, took female captives as sex slaves, and owned slaves until his death. He thinks Ethiopia and Eritrea are in Central Africa….

Reza: Islam shows contempt and hatred for non-Muslims per the Koran/Hadith/Sira/Sunna of Muhammed. it also calls for their subjugation and/or death. Being aware of these facts means that one is INFORMED and thus not bigoted. Considering what Islamic doctrine dictates about non-Muslims, this kickstarts a non-Muslim’s SURVIVAL instinct (i.e. NOT fear) because they know what is at stake. No stupid TV show you’re proposing is going to change that reality. Until then, focus on eliminating the hatred from the totalitarian “religion” that you subscribe to.

Yes, I heard that show was awful. Mark Steyn did a review of it at the time and didn’t find it funny. I’m inclined to go with his judgement.

Exactly.
Angemon says
I, while not being a thinker on Aslan’s level (his actual level, not the level the ultracrepidarian textbook case of Dunning–Kruger effect imagines to be on), can’t help but to think on what happened all those other times someone tried to mix humour and muslims – something about “death threats”, “forced into hiding”, “murders”, “allahu akbar”, “we’ve avenged the prophet”, etc…

Achmed says
Hi there, Ibrahim. The church of Rome did, in fact, kill apostates. If, as the Scottish martyrs did, translate the Bible from anything other than the vulgate … they were either crucified or burnt alive. That is true.
However, let’s face it, mohammed (he’s undergoing eternal torment and agony in hell) NEVER set slaves free. He was a slave trader. TOO funny … two wrongs do not make a right. The African slave traders were mohammedans … ALL of them were mohammedans .. they sold the slaves to European traders. Should the Europeans have purchased slaves from the moslems? Absolutely not. Should a junkie buy heroin from a drug cartel pusher? Absolutely not. However, that does not grant any clemency to the drug cartel pusher … as no clemency should be given to the mohammedans that ran the slave trade.
In closing, dear little muslima Ibrahim (are you somali? Your typing seems to indicate such)
There is but one satan and his name is allah. And, the lowest and most cowardly of his demons is mohammed.
eagle says
I totally agree. If America is suspicious of Islam or Muslims it is because of the truth about what they are here in America, to take over the American government and kill all non-believers. This might only stop if the American people take down every mosque and burn the quran every Sunday until all practicing Muslims leave America. God bless Trump.

“we have been saying terrorist groups are tiny minority less than.09% of muslims with perverted and isolated view on islam”

BTW, who is this “we” you speak of?
“church carried out mass killings of muslims during crusade wars”
You mean, European Christians came to aid and defend their co-religionists who were under constant attacks by your co-religionists – the Crusades were a small-scale, delayed response to centuries of unprovoked islamic aggression.
“but some apologist christian liars are telling us that all these practices are now banned in the christian west.did they erase the biblical verses relied upon by the church men?”
Someone who studied the Bible, as you claim to have, should know the answer to that. A muslim, as you are, should also know that it would be impossible for anyone, Christians or otherwise, to erase, or interfere in some other way, with revelations from God, since the quran states that in, for example, 6:115.
NYgal says
Tolerance is a good thing, if it is not a tolerance of evil and destructive belief system. Since Islam advocates domination and replacement of all non-Muslim cultures, it would be suicidal to allow them a foothold within non-Musl9m countries, be it Christian, Hindu, Buddhist or the only Jewish country, Israel.
Milo says
I’m just trying to get a clear idea of what Islam is truly about and, so, I’ve asked a number of Muslims opinions of what I’ve discovered. Unfortunately, either I’m attacked, cursed, and threatened or I get no response what so ever. You seem to be relatively intelligent, so, here’s something to ponder.
It appears to me after much study of Islam, it is believed the Qur’an is the eternal word of Allah, revealed to the prophet, Muhammad through the Angel, Gabriel. It is also said in the Qur’an, that God’s writings, whether it be the Qur’an, the Torah, or the Gospels, can not be corrupted (Suras # 6:114-115 & #18:27) and is clearly written so there is no question of meaning and need of interpretation (Sura #17:89)
Once when confronted about possible contradictions found in the Qur’an, Allah revealed to Muhammad that they were not contradictions but rather abrogations of previous revelations. Hmmm, that means the later the sura is written, the more precedence it has over previous writings that might contradict its stance (Suras #2:106 & #16:101).
So, out of the 114 Suras found in the Qur’an, what is the last sura revealed to Muhammad ? It’s Sura #110, Al-Nasr (Victory), about a paragraph long. Nothing significant enough to abrogate anything preceding it. It basically says when there come the victory of God, and the Conquest, there will be forgiveness.
So, what was given to Muhammad just prior to this revelation?
That would be Sura #9, At-Tawba (Repentance); the only Sura not to open with “in the name of Allah, the Compassionate, the Merciful”, that’s because there is no compassion nor mercy shown in this piece. It reads more like an instructional manual in the art of Jihad, than a holy book. It is more akin to The Art of War, than the Holy Bible.
This Sura abrogates any peace & tolorence passages found in the entirety of the Qur’an. This would also explain the existence of ISIS and other extremists, who not only follow the instructions of the Qur’an to the letter, and emulate the lifestyle of the prophet, they also don’t lie (Taqiyya) about it.
So, who knows best? Modern day Moderate Muslims or Allah, through his incorruptible eternal book?

More vicious claptrap from ibrahim itace muhammed:
if (sic) christians (sic) are sincere that christianity (sic), based on law of grace, means tolerance and forgiveness rather than revenge;why (sic) constant attacks and hates (sic) on muslims (sic) by christians,especially (sic) in the so-called civilised christian (sic) west?
……………………………………
We’ve heard this rot before–that if Christians are truly sincere about being peaceful, they they should bare their throats to the Muslim blade, and if they are truly forgiving that they should have no problem with Muslims raping, enslaving, and murdering them.
And look at what muhammed considers “hate”–daring to say that rape, slavery, and mass slaughter are bad things.
More:
we (sic) have been saying terrorist groups are tiny minority less than.09% of muslims (sic) with perverted and isolated view on islam.yet (sic) islamaphobia (sic) continues.is (sic) that not a deceptions (sic) christion (sic) are known for?
……………………………………
muhammed *himself* has condoned death threats for an artist saying “God is dead”, affirmed that apostates from Islam should be murdered; applauded Muslims killing Israelis, and has said that Muslims should conquer the West and force Christians to convert to Islam. Does that mean he considers himself part of the “0,9%” of Muslims with that supposedly perverted view of Islam?
And no–opposing these horrors is not a “deceptions”–calling evil what it is, is in fact a core value of Christianity.
More:
it (sic) the same thing when they have been telling us that christians (sic) are not bound by old testament contained in the verses of genocide,slavery,death (sic) penalty for apostasy and homosexuality etc.yet church carried out mass killings of muslims (sic) during crusade wars in the name of jesus,which (sic) they said was a revenge for series of killings of christians (sic) by the muslims.where (sic) is the doctrine of forgiveness?
……………………………………
No, the Crusades were not genocide, nor were they “revenge”. They were an attempt to stop Muslims from enslaving and murdering Christian pilgrims in the Holy Land. As muhammed sees it, Christians are not real Christians if they resist any sort of Muslim savagery. Certainly, Muslims would be much happier if they could convince Christians that they have to surrender to Muslim savagery.

……………………………………
No, the Church never kept sex slaves. Is muhammed confusing Christians with Muslims? Probably so. After all, he himself has affirmed that Muslims may capture Infidel woman and use they as sex slaves. Damn barbarians.
To the extent that Christians ever harmed people, including practicing slavery, they were acting *against* the tenets of Christianity.
And muhammed’s supposed skepticism over the West no longer practicing slavery or killing gay people is just ludicrous–I suppose muhammed simply cannot conceive of anyone *not* enslaving people and slaughtering apostates. *Ugh*.

a muslim “WILL AND GRACE” show would have Will being thrown off of a highrise building for being gay, while Grace is raped and then stoned to death by her muslim rapists for “fornication”
karl Anglin says
The television program All American Muslim was put on the air but did not stay long
John A. Marre says
A Muslim situation COMEDY? Sorry, but the two words, Muslim and comedy, don’t go together. There is nothing funny about throwing gays off tall buildings, slicing necks, burning cars and buildings, and setting off bomb vests on one’s children.
The media complex really believes that we hate Islam because of prejudice. They also believe that the public would willingly watch 30 minutes of obvious rubbish.
Adolphius Rex says
This. little feminine bitch, Reza, is just trying to create an outlet to express his deep need to express himself. He’s already an actor pretending to be a heterosexual Muslim male pretending to believe Islam is something it’s not, while he is really nothing more than a homosexual munafiq kaffir, working against America’s better interests to Facilitate an Islamic agenda which would be his own demise if it came to fruition. His conflicted persona is the perfect candidate for the “Muslim” Will.

Ibrahim – you are under the mistaken belief that all who say they are Christians are in fact, Christians. However, saying one is a Christian doesn’t make him so. As a matter of fact, those in your comment you call “Christians” were actually the rulers of a corrupt mafia called the “Catholic Church”. They followed their own lust for wealth and power rather than the teachings of Christ.
You say you have read the New Testament, and you have already noted a dichotomy between the teachings of Christ and the actions of “Christians”. However, you are wrong to judge all Christians by the actions of the corrupt Catholic Church. A true Christian follows the teachings of Christ.
So it wasn’t Christians who launched the Crusades but rather, the corrupted Catholic Church, Even so, war was the way of the times. Muslims conquered the Levant and Spain and North Africa and India and raped and slaughtered and pillaged wherever they went. Muhammad himself was a cruel warlord who participated and even relished the conquest, rape, and pillage. I wouldn’t throw stones if I were you. (“Let he who is without sin cast the first stone.” John 8:7)

As I noted, the Crusades were not about revenge–they were intended to stop Muslims from enslaving and murdering Christians on pilgrimage.

Since this was not about revenge, these are moot points. Moreover, muhammed’s implication that at the time Muslims were no longer enslaving and murdering Christians is quite incorrect. In fact, had this been the case, there would have been no need for the Crusades at all, since Christian pilgrims to the region would have been perfectly safe.

………………………………………….
The Middle Ages–particularly the Middle Ages in illiterate Muslim lands–were not known for keeping meticulous records, to put it mildly.
But Muslims–as they love to boast–had already conquered Christian land in the Levant, in the Magreb, throughout the Middle East, a large chunk of Anatolia, and almost the entire Iberian peninsula by this time–Christians had not conquered Muslims anywhere, and had only fought a few defensive battles such as beating back Muslim invaders at Poitier.
So, the implication that Muslims had not killed many thousands of Christians by this time is not just ridiculous, it would, in fact, have gravely offended muhammed’s own homicidal coreligionists to imply that Muslims had *not* slaughtered large numbers of Christians.
Kay says
ibrahim, you ask where the Christian doctrine of forgiveness is–
He is right now right here, calling you home. For while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.
Will you receive the love He is offering you? You do not have to deserve it. In fact, you cannot deserve it. God loves because that is who God is–Creator, protector, giver of life and wisdom. Cry out to Him ibrahim . He knows and loves you better than you know or love yourself.

After all of the usual arguments and endless discussion of what Islam is or ought to be, the fact remains; Islam is a value system rooted in the seventh century. It has no place in modern thinking.
