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

Secretary General of Muslim World League demands media present “true image of Islam”

Dec 5, 2019 11:00 am By Christine Douglass-Williams

The Secretary General of the Muslim World League (MWL), Sheikh Mohammed Al-Essa, want everyone to know what he claims is the “true image of Islam.” He is concerned about “dangerous ideas that have nothing to do with Islam and Muslims.”
So he wants you to ignore the obvious connection between Islam and a host of human rights abuses. He and many others like him want you to think that the Islamic genocide against Christians, the persecution of other religious minorities, the murder of gays, the Sharia inferiority of women, Sharia-justified pedophilia (child marriage), the Shi’ite practice of slicing open children’s skulls and smearing their blood all over them for the festival of Ashura, the expansion of Sharia in Indonesia’s Aceh province, cruel blasphemy laws in Pakistan, the Palestinian jihad against Israel, the violent commands in the Quran and Hadiths, etc., are all figments of your imagination. And if you think otherwise, then you’re “Islamophobic.”
Sheikh Mohammed Al-Essa’s argument is absurd, but it has gained much traction in the West. Making it worse is that Islamic supremacists know the truth about themselves, and recognize how gullible too many Westerners are, particularly Leftists.
Al-Essa made his speech in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, a country that is bending over backwards in the face of its financial woes to make it look as if it is reforming in a direction of modernization, yet it remains a major exporter of Wahhabism globally.
“MWL chief tells media to present Islam’s true image,” Saudi Gazette, December 3, 2019:

RIYADH — Secretary General of the Muslim World League (MWL) Sheikh Mohammed Al-Essa has emphasized the role of Muslims in general and the media and Islamic organizations in particular in presenting the true image of Islam and Muslims as well as in removing misgivings about Islam and confronting the ways of distorting its image. He also cautioned against some young men being lured into dangerous ideas that have nothing to do with Islam and Muslims.

The MWL chief made the remarks while addressing a session titled “Islamophobia: an intellectual crisis or media crisis” at the Saudi Media Forum, which began in Riyadh on Monday. He underscored the role of media in effectively confronting the phenomenon of Islamophobia, and its role in changing the stereotype image created by the hostile media under the guise of Islamophobia.

Al-Essa lauded the role of the Saudi Media Forum in dealing with various topics of importance in a professional and objective manner. “Islamophobia is a term that must be explored in all its details, starting with the causes, analysis and solutions, and comparing it with the controversies around it from all aspects,” he said

    is this jerk for real??? THEY created the term islamophobia to quell dissidents, period. If it looks like shit, it smells like shit, then it is shit, period.

      ‘ISLAMOPHOBIA’ is a perfect example of PSYCHOLOGICAL PROJECTION … to accuse others of doing what you are doing.

      AL WALAA WAL BARAA is an Islamic teaching that means to HATE the DIRTY KUFAAR ‘for the sake of Allah’ …

      AL WALAA WAL BARAA is in effect KAFIR-O-PHOBIA.

    The snarky, backroom controlled, regal, media has no intention of doing anything demanded of it. The more Islam stridently complains the more unfavorable press it will receive. It appears that the new media also enjoys having itself being the news – breaking a previous cardinal rule of reporting.

    The true image of Islam is DEMAND. So have at it. CAIR still hasn’t figured out why its failing.

    I have seen the true image of islam and some of the faces of the apologists for islam,usually covered by that tragically comical and pathetic islamic beard,a symbol of their false piety:

    zakir{“I’d rather kill myself than commit suicide” }naik,muhammed burqa{sorry,Hijab} and his trained poodle ali dawa…who to be honest,do make me laugh as they have to{desperately}defend the indefensible.

    I mean allah does get the “bright sparks” doesn’t he?

    The True image of islam?

    The Golden Rule,”Love thy Neighbor”,Non-violence,morality and deceny,Tolerance of other creeds and the right to be an “apostate”,music,art,literature ,science,having a laugh..:well there is none of that “infidel” nonsense in islam is there in the “true” religion,the religion of “peace”{WHERE??I’m not seeing the peace;1,400 years of “peace”…}?

    Just lots of false piety on behalf of a god who gets Astronomy,Human Biology and Theology wrong{please READ the koran;especially if you are a muslim…who knew a allah’s “perfect” book had so many ERRORS in it?}

        Dec 5, 2019 at 12:46 pm

        AL WALAA WAL BARAA is actually Islamophobia in reverse.

        This is psychological projection of what they are doing themselves … they are phobically hating all non-Muslims.

    From what someone told me, the Muslim World League is the organization that the Saudis use to promote their vision of Islam: it’s the reason they are very hostile to the Muslim Brotherhood, which is a rival organization.

    The Muslim World League has gone under the radar, but needs to be branded a terrorist organization just like the Muslim Brotherhood and their associates are

    • gravenimage says

      Dec 5, 2019 at 9:30 pm

      Agreed–they are just rivals, Ultimately, they teach the same thing.

    Great word “kafirphobia”. Perhaps we should start throwing this word about a bit more to counter “islamophobia”.

    Non-Muslims who present the true image of Islam get banned from Twitter, de-monetized on YouTube, and blocked from travelling to the UK.

    I see things as completely the opposite to what this Muslim apologist says. I believe that islam, despite all the barbaric content (the misogyny, the hatred for all non-Muslims,etc) of the vile ideology and despite all the Muslim terrorist attacks all over the world, has been given far too soft treatment by many people, who spend their time defending Islam and telling us that Islam is actually decent and pleasant and peaceful. I think that this soft treatment that Islam has managed to get is one of the greatest con jobs of all time. This Muslim spokesman is trying to keep this soft treatment of Islam going. Islam deserves to have the truth told about it and to receive constant, harsh criticism. It has received soft treatment from many people for too long.

    • Peter35 says

      Dec 6, 2019 at 3:06 pm

      Got it in spades, Tim! But until people wake up and stomp on the cockroach that is islam, they will just keep on advancing, as they are with their world wide protection racket, halal certification, which more and more western businesses are succumbing too.

      • tim gallagher says

        Dec 6, 2019 at 4:56 pm

        Yes, Peter35, I often think that this soft treatment and respect that Islam, for some bizarre reason that I don’t understand, continues to get from so many people is probably the greatest con job ever perpetrated. I agree with what you say about the halal scam as well. I keep thinking too many people in the western world are just too nice and don’t want to offend Muslims. To my mind, Islam is vile and should be constantly criticised. Actually, I was just thinking that the people who comment here on Jihad Watch give Islam the amount of respect islam deserves, ie none. If only everyone would wake up.

      He thinks that the MSM is not presenting a rosy enough picture of Islam.

    • Scott Carlson says

      Dec 6, 2019 at 9:51 am

      They never want true Islam exposed, just the fake version to fool infidels. Ignorance is their greatest power over the people of the host country. As long as people are ignorant they can use them as their puppets to defend it. It works very well for them.

  18. ntesdorf says

    Dec 5, 2019 at 5:47 pm

    The last thing that the Secretary General of the Muslim World League would like to see is a “true image of Islam”. He would be appalled by what was shown to him, or maybe, not.

    • gravenimage says

      Dec 5, 2019 at 9:32 pm

      He just doesn’t want the Infidels to know what Islam has in store for them.

      • Scott Carlson says

        Dec 6, 2019 at 9:44 am

        Exactly. How else is he going to continue to blind the masses. Islam has it’s secrets that Muslims always work 24/7 on social media platforms in order to deceive to discredit any truth tellers. Islam depends on ignorance to survive. Kinda hard to take over a country through ignorance when growing awareness is happening.

        What the Muslim just said is that truth tellers efforts are working.

    Any of the books by Robert Spencer

    …………….

    In other words, even the massive whitewash one gets from most of the media in the West regarding Islam is not enough for Muslims.

    MWL should employ Robert Spencer to explain Islam to the masses.

  23. Scott Carlson says

    He means he’s demanding more Islamic propaganda videos because some people are waking up to their sinister totalitarian ideology.
