    For those Americans who still do not or are not willing to understand Muslims and Islam, let me enlighten you in very short but deadly irrefutable conclusions:

    1. No Muslim can ever be BOTH a Good Muslim and a Loyal citizen among non Muslims/ Kuffar/ Infidels

    2. Because they follow Allah’s Sharia, every Muslim is automatically the Eternal and Mortal ENEMY of every human being who is NOT a Muslim (80% of current humanity)

    $100,00 says there is not a single human being on planet Earth who can prove me WRONG!

    Any challengers willing to lose $100,000 when they fail?

      Why should the West host or accommodate muslims ?

        For ordinary decent people, Islam is misery. That is the case whether you are Muslim or not. Even the top people in Islam say so.

        Neither the West nor East should accommodate Islam. It is a bad idea that should be resisted.

Allah says “La yanhakum anniladhina lam yuqatiluukum walam yakhrujuukum min diyarikum (Allah does not prohibit for Muslims tò be friendly with non-muslims who do fight them or drive them away from their homes) “.The American constitution guarantees the Muslim citizens of America the right to practice their religion as it is, including freedom to practice sharia without imposing it on non-muslims, which Islam okays.

        “allah does not prohibit for muslims to be friendly with non-muslims”

        Really?That’s odd.

        Because… your god allah the deceiver,in his “holy” koran begs to differ..

        “Oh ye who believe!take not the Jews and Christians for friends”
        koran 5 v 51

        Is that clear enough for you?How sad is “allah”!
        An antisemitic,antiChristian,misogynistic,theologically-challenged bigot of a god who is so insecure he needs his muslims to pray to him 5 times a day in arabic(since allah,unlike God ,is handicapped somewhat by being a monoglot).

        There are Indonesian muslims who don’t know arabic:allah the monoglot god of islam just isn’t very helpful is he?

        But then “allah is the best of deceivers” k3:54 and therefore a self-confessed bearer of FALSE Witness:he has certainly fooled you.

        You don’t seem to know your own koran:like many islamic apologists.
        You don’t seem to know that your “prophet”,perfect muhammed ,actually confessed to be a complete fraud{Al tabari 6:111}

        “I have fabricated things AGAINST GOD and have imputed to him things he has not said”
        mo the perfect man

          FYI, the problem with you myopic critics of Islam is that you don’t understand the Quran and Hadiths you have been citing. The word “Aulia “in Quran 5:51″does’nt mean “friends “in the context, it means “Allies”as groups who are hostile to Muslims. Allah says muslims shall not take evil Jews and mithraist christians as Allies who are hostile to other Muslims. The verse i quoted is saying Allah does not prohibit alliance with non-muslims who are not hostile to Muslims. The holy Prophet Muhammad had an alliance with Catholic christians from Najran (Yemen) who even paid him a courtesy visit at Medina and he allowed them to pray in his grand mosque. on his arrival to Medina he signed PACT of alliance and togetherness with jewish community, which they breached by forming a secret alliance with pagan meccans to harm muslims,and they were tried and convicted

        The appalling Ibrahim itace muhammed wrote:

        …………………….

        No, the US Constitution does not allow Muslims to “marry” children or stone rape victims to death, as Ibrahim itace muhammed pretends.

        And he *himself* has said that spreading Islam to every corner of the earth and having it dominate is what Islam demands. The idea that they are going to stick at oppressing Infidels is absurd–this is a core part of Islam.

        More, in reply to FYI:

        …………………….

        This just means that Muslims have no problem with using Infidels to smite their many enemies if they think they can get away with it. This is not friendship.

        The very fact that Ibrahim itace muhammed is ranting about “evil Jews and mithraist christians” shows what his views of all Infidels is.

        More:

        The holy Prophet Muhammad had an alliance with Catholic christians from Najran (Yemen) who even paid him a courtesy visit at Medina and he allowed them to pray in his grand mosque.
        …………………….

        The Christians of Najran had to offer tribute to the Muslims so that the Muslims would not slaughter them:

        https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Event_of_Mubahala

        The idea that threats and demands of tribute is “friendship” shows how twisted Muslims really are.

        More:

        on his arrival to Medina he signed PACT of alliance and togetherness with jewish community, which they breached by forming a secret alliance with pagan meccans to harm muslims,and they were tried and convicted
        …………………….

        What really happened after Muhammed signed this pact is that as soon as he consolidated his power in Medina he set about enslaving and mass slaughtering the Jewish tribes.

        Soon there was no one left there in power but the Muslim invaders.

        This is *exactly* what Ibrahim itace muhammed and his coreligionists have in store for us if we let them.

      In practice, muslim Americans have been practicing Islam and at the same time remain loyal to America. According to sharia where it is not practicable to apply sharia in toto, both in spiritual and mundane matters, Allah will not blame him under sharia doctrine of “darura(neccessity).

        In practice, Muslims have been practicing FGM, child “marriage”, raping Infidels, and waging violent Jihad–as well as practicing stealth Jihad at every turn.

        There is nothing loyal to American values in this. *Ugh*.

        And Darura just refers to adhering to Infidel laws when there appears to be no alternative. There is always the imperative to impose Islam wherever Muslims think they can get away with it.

      (…It is easy to forget that there are still many naive non-Muslims who foolishly rely on the fake news peddlers of (Islam is peace) pablum to learn about Islam…)

      That is exactly right, Jay Boo!

      As we speak, at the behest of the US and Nato, Israel has just evacuated hundreds of Al-Qaeda operatives known as “White Helmets” from Syria.
      It is very sad and very outrageous to see that like the US and the West, even Israel is on the side of the mass-murdering islamic jihadists, jihadists that are killing tens of thousands of Christians and other minorities each year in the ME!

      SHAME ON ISRAEL, USA, UK, FRANCE, CANADA AND THE WEST FOR DOING THIS!!! MAY CHRIST HOLD THEM RESPONSIBLE FOR THEIR CONTINUOUS SUPPORT OF THE MASS-MURDERING JIHADISTS AND FOR BEING HOSTILE TO CHRISTIANS! MAY GOD JUDGE THE WEST AND EVEN ISRAEL FOR THIS!!! Please see this breaking news on the link below:

        Among the evacuated so-called “White Helmets” are also top Al-Qaeda and ISIS leaders as well as embedded Mossad/CIA/MI6 operatives.

      • gravenimage says

        Jul 22, 2018 at 2:31 pm

        Many consider the White Helmets to be good samaritans, and know little about their links to Jihad groups.

        US and Nato governments and their political establishment know very well that White Helmets is an the Al-Qaeda branch and they were urgently forced to evacuate them now because deeply embedded in the White Helmets are dozens and dozens of Mossad/CIA/MI6 operatives that they did not want to be captured alive or killed by the fast advancing Syrian army. Graven, please understand that there is whole lot of very ugly stuff that is going on behind the scenes but you can’t see this in the MSM and can’t even read it in the jihadwatch and other websites.

    The history of Islam’s jihad has continued until this current jihad terrorism is now in termed what some people of this twenty-first century call hat is “Radical Islamic Terrorism” , which is very much based on religion. The religion of Islam For Islam’s “holy book” the Qur ‘an [the Koran] instructs on the use of violence and killing for the advancement of Islam. As found in ,for example 2:191. 4:89. 5:33. 9:5,111,123. 47:4. Furthermore, it may be illustrated that if Islam is represented as a tree then the fruits then the fruits of that tree are the many brutal, violent and deadly jihad terror entities. Such as ISIS, Al Qaeda, Boko Haram, al Shabaab , Hamas, Hezbollah, P.I.J. etc. With this statement, the Wisdom of the teachings of Jesus may, very much, apply to this subject. For Jesus taught “Ye do know them by their fruits. Do men gather grapes of thorns, or figs of thistles? Even so every good tree bringeth forth good fruit; but a corrupt tree bringeth forth evil fruit. A good tree cannot bring forth evil fruit, neither can a corrupt tree bring forth good fruit.” After saying this Jesus told them what He told them when He said “By their fruit ye shall know them.” Matthew 7:16, 17, 18,.20. [K.J.V.] In conclusion, Islam is a corrupt tree and also a false religion, Proverbs 14:12. John 14:6. First John 2:22,23. 4:14,15. 5:12,13,20.

    This is nice and good but I’m already informed on Islam. Basically make a problem out of a no problem, then take extreme measure to fix the problem, often the fixing involves chopping off body parts or kill the person.

    I wish the articles have bag in the picture, so I can say “nice bag”. That’s all.

        The “white helmets” are a propaganda program/wing of IS and company.

        Many of them will eventually be resettle in Canada.

    Banning those aspects of Islam and Sharia which are contrary to law in Western countries would go a long way toward removing the dangerous aspects of Islam and Sharia Law. Unfortunately, the authorities are too craven and ill-informed to do this which is already their duty.

    Required reading is A wind in the house of Islam by David Garrison.

    For the first time since its inception substantial numbers of Muslims are leaving islam to become followers of Christ. Remarkably, many of these people are staying within the islamic community rather than identifying as Christians. Garrison investigates movements of this nature in every corner of the islamic world.

      These Muslim conversions to Christianity would increase if the Pope was not such a dope.

      • WPM says

        Jul 22, 2018 at 8:48 am

        The current Pope worships the communist ideology over Christian ideology and Islam as a supremist ideology fits in hand and glove with communist we must crush some of our people for the good of all people. If the Pope will not talk about current Christians being killed or punished for their faith in the middle east and Africa ,why would he try to protect converts to the faith in that region? The Pope will not admit Islam is a bad idea that mocks his faith, that hates of his faith as a core part of its doctrines . One of the Popes main jobs is to speak up to defend the faithful that are punished for their faith of being Christian .

    An excellent show.
    Some of the problems the West has arise from the romantic notions they have of the Arabs which is clouding their view of Islam.
    The invasion of the shores of Europe by Islamic migrants has been encouraged by politicos whose countries are reliant upon external energy sources of Arab origin and perhaps this is the nub of the problem which they are afraid to deal with. Hence Islam has been permitted to infiltrate the West without being halted and the religious leaders of pre Islamic faiths such as Judaism are prepared to extend their hand of friendship, such as has been done in the UK, in in order not to make waves. This co operation now extends to food, education, minority status etc resulting in a brain washing amongst the communal leaders to defend Islam and ignore the anti Israel rhetoric being promulgated as being anti semitic.
    After all once a land falls to Islam it can never according to their doctoring return to its original owners – hence the hate for the Jewish State.

    Yet i see the other side where radical-muslims ordering death to everyone.
    how do you draw the line , and know what is true islam versus radical islam

    Just like Saad says in this video at around 35.00 abt the Islamization of Montreal, so many veiled women, so also in India, in formerly hardcore Hindu areas, U will a plethora of veiled women. This is nothing but cancer..

    Jul 24, 2018 at 12:53 am

    And to add.. even if Saad says that Robert is self promoting his book, let me say this, I just can’t have enough of him speaking,.. in fact, I can hear him endlessly.. I loved it when he says ” Any Self respecting book store to house his book” that was brilliant satire…

    Robert is just repeatedly telling the truth esp to the entire right-left spectrum and is begging them to wake up and listen. I’m doing by best to promote his book..

    Jul 24, 2018 at 1:20 am

    At around 35.00, Saad says that the demography of Montreal is changing alarmingly and he can so many veiled women…. the same thing can be said of many formerly hardcore Hindu areas of India and now U can many veiled Muslimas even in those areas.. it is scary and India is headed for a second partition and I predict the latest by 2047
