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

Germany: Shi’ite Muslim cleric says Iran’s Islamic revolution “has no borders,” opposes “democracy in the world”

Jun 11, 2020 4:00 pm By Robert Spencer

“The world needs to know that the system of the Rule of the Jurisprudent stands in opposition to the system of liberal democracy in the world and in opposition to the democracy in America.”

Why, Torkilmaz, you racist. Don’t you know that saying that Islamic rule is opposed to liberal democracy is “bigotry” and “Islamophobia”? Ibrahim Hooper, call your office!

“Sabaheddin Torkilmaz, Head Of A Berlin Shi’ite Center On Iranian TV: Khomeini’s Revolution Has No Borders; The Rule Of The Jurisprudent Stands In Opposition To Liberal Democracy,” MEMRI, June 3, 2020:

Sabaheddin Torkilmaz, the head of the Imam Reza Islamic Center in Berlin, said in a June 3, 2020 interview on Ofogh TV (Iran) that Imam Khomeini and the Islamic Revolution have inspired Iraq, Syria, Palestine, Yemen, Lebanon, and other countries in Africa and Latin America. He elaborated that the Islamic Revolution has no borders and that the Rule of the Jurisprudent stands in opposition to liberal democracy and American democracy.

Sabaheddin Torkilmaz: “Since the Revolution [in 1979], Iraq, Syria, Lebanon, and Palestine – and now Yemen and countries in Africa and in Latin America – have been inspired directly by Imam [Khomeini].

[…]

“We need to examine what was the purpose of the Revolution. When Imam [Khomeini] said, ‘We will export the Revolution,’ what was it that he wanted to export? Iranian culture? Iranian-ness?

[…]

“When we understand this, it becomes apparent that the Revolution has no borders. In the political dimension, when the monarchy was overthrown and the Islamic regime came to power, it was only in Iran. The message of the Revolution – and of exporting it – is something else: The struggle against arrogance and oppression.

[…]

“The world needs to know that the system of the Rule of the Jurisprudent stands in opposition to the system of liberal democracy in the world and in opposition to the democracy in America.”

    “The world needs to know that the system of the Rule of the Jurisprudent stands in opposition to the system of liberal democracy in the world and in opposition to the democracy in America.”

    And most of the World ignores him and all the thousands and thousands of other Muslims who aren’t afraid of bad publicity.

    GOD’s LAW is above Islamic Law! Re Legal Jurisprudence, the GOD of Abraham, Isaac & Jacob gave His LAWS & COMMANDS = LEGAL JURISPRUDENCE to MOSES in front of thousands of WITNESSES as recorded in the Torah & the Bible!
    Muhammad saw an Angel in a cave and was given a revelation – NO WITNESSES

    (Exo 19:9 KJV)  And the LORD said unto Moses, Lo, I come unto thee in a thick cloud, that the people may hear when I speak with thee, and believe thee for ever. And Moses told the words of the people unto the LORD.
    (Exo 19:10 KJV)  And the LORD said unto Moses, Go unto the people, and sanctify them to day and to morrow, and let them wash their clothes,
    (Exo 19:11 KJV)  And be ready against the third day: for the third day the LORD will come down in the sight of all the people upon mount Sinai.
    (Exo 19:12 KJV)  And thou shalt set bounds unto the people round about, saying, Take heed to yourselves, that ye go not up into the mount, or touch the border of it: whosoever toucheth the mount shall be surely put to death:

    The Israelites took a census so we know how many people were with Moses in the wilderness!
    GOD’s LAW is superior to the revelation of an Angel who changes his story!
    IF Allah were the God of the Bible – Allah is schizophrenic because he has changed his mind about everything he had previously said!
    If the Angel Jibril / Gabriel were the same as the Gabriel of the Torah & the Bible, then Jibril / Gabriel has a serious problem of schizophrenia as well!

    Following that logic then Allah & Jibril are the ones at fault because either they lied to the Jews & Christians or they lied to Muslim’s?????

    Just demonstrating again that Islam sucks and is completely incompatible with true democracy, which requires real freedom to exist.

    Islam or democracy. Islam or freedom. Islam or equality under the law. Islam or women’s rights. Islam or non-control freak behavior. Islam or a live and let live standard. Islam or romantic love. Islam or a true Golden Rule for all. Islam or an open mind. Islam or…. Islam or…. Islam or….

    Islam is highly antithetical to much that mankind should and must prize. And I can’t think of any good in Islam (sure isn’t much if any) that can’t be found elsewhere but yet there is so much rot and nonsense in Islam that is deuce difficult to find anywhere else. So why keep it around at all?

    Islam can only take mankind backwards, often exponentially so as can all other stupid, insupportable and malevolent ideologies, included in this infamous list not only Islam but Nazism, Marxism, anarchism, Western Leftism, et al. Miss this and you miss most everything.

    …………………..

    This is how *all* Muslims think.

    Why is Germany allowing this incitement to violence?

      Agree with GI. Practically all Muslims ‘hate’ democracy in theory because democracy is the rule of ‘The People’, rather than the rule of Allah.

      About this, will Mrs.Merkel mind ?

      A rhetorical question, but no. The evidence suggests she might even covertly sympathise.

    Any Muslim who hates liberal democracy should immediately be offered free transportation to a Muslim country like Pakistan or Afghanistan with the promise not to return.

    That Shi ‘ite clerics who declared that the Islamic revolution in Iran has “no borders” and is against “democracy in the world.” This only means many awful things . One of them this ,if actually occurs, the spread of brutal ,harsh oppression of females, both girls and women, This cruel Islamic misogyny it ,literally, leads to murder .As in the male murderous Islamic tradition of females which they so very inappropriately call “honor killing.”

    Another affront which came with that Islamic revolution is that this”Mullah tyranny ” of Iran imprisons women for not wearing the hijab is but one part of the anti-female tyranny of this tyrannical “mullah regime” of Iran.

    For that ruthless cruel brutal heinous regime of Iran that is so unfittingly has the word “Republic” in its title ,for its called “ The Islamic Republic of Iran” [ I R I]. On the topic of this Islamic tyranny a former Muslim revealed that “The IRI system recognizes women as dependent upon men and incomplete human beings who need to be supervised and controlled by men and the State. This author further exposed that “Women are created for the purposes of giving pleasure to men and child bearing – functions that confine them to the home”

    This is a male Chauvinistic as can possibly be. In addition this writer further makes it known that “The IRI legal system still retains traditional patriarchal bias that can be described as nothing but systemic subordination of women , which is undoubtedly a human rights violation .” This author further reveals that “Iran is of what Islamic fundamentalists desire, an Islamic State, and the consequence of achieving it “State Terror. Instead of utopia, Iran is an Islamic totalitarian nightmare…” and “the Islamic Republic of Iran exists and operates as what every Islamic fundamentalist dreams of, an Islamic state ruled by Sharia …What followed its establishment was the inevitable consequence and inexorable logic of its Islamic premises; state terrorism, a merciless tyranny.” [1]

    This heinous Islamic misogyny has been also exposed by another author who was born and lived in a Middle Eastern nation for many years. She wrote “Female freedom and independence is one of the greatest sins in Islam…” and “Women in Islam are considered unclean, deemed inferior even to dirt.” [2]

    All this is wicked, unjust and misogynistic to the extreme. Islam had not regard for human life, regardless of what the apologists for this religion will claim and the spread of this Islamic revolution to other countries would only be a plague upon the nations and people of the world.

    Heh. There is a bit of a surprise waiting for them here in the US. I would love to be a fly on the wall when they find out that the right to keep and bear arms applies to everyone. There may have been a pact of Omar. But we’ve moved past that now. If they attempt to cow an armed population, it could prove quite disastrous for them.

    Lets try again from the beginning; trying to form a more perfect union, establish justice, insure domestic tranquility, provide for the common defense, promote the general welfare and secure the blessing of liberty to ourselves and our posterity.

    Not one word about “liberal democracy”.

      No, we don’t have to destroy the free West in order to recreate it.

      Whatever shortcomings America and the West may have, none of this will be improved by destroying our democracies.

    “borders”

    islam has no concept of borders.

    islam:1,400 years of not understanding the concept of respecting borders.

    Islam has to oppose democracy because islam is a violent corrupt dictatorship hiding behind a religious ideology.
