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

OIC stresses need to counter terrorism and ‘Islamophobia,’ says Islam has nothing to do with terrorism

Nov 30, 2020 8:00 am By Robert Spencer 20 Comments

They have to keep insisting that there is no link between Islam and terrorism because terrorists so frequently link the two. In any case, remember this the next time you hear that the OIC condemns terrorism. They very clearly are not referring to jihad terrorism, as they’re assuming that jihad activity is not terrorism at all.

“OIC Underlines Fighting Terrorism, Defending Palestinian Cause,” International Quran News Agency, November 29, 2020:

TEHRAN (IQNA) – The Organization of Islamic Cooperation stressed the importance of fighting terrorism and defending the cause of Palestine.

The 47th meeting of the OIC Council of Foreign Ministers is underway in Niamey, Niger.

It began on Saturday with an emphasis on unity of Muslim world in addressing Islamophobia for peace and development.

The participants discuss the issue of Palestine, countering Islamophobia, Muslim communities in non-member states, and fighting extremism, terrorism and violence, among other things.

Addressing the opening session on Saturday, OIC Secretary General Yousef Ahmed Al-Othaimeen described terrorism as the most dangerous threat the world is facing.

He said the OIC underlines that there is no link between Islam and terrorism.

He also referred to recent anti-Islam acts and said that international efforts are needed to ban desecration of religious sanctities.

Niger President Mahamadou Issoufou was another speaker at the event who said Islam is the religion of peace and compassion and that the religion has nothing to do with terrorism….

    “Islamophobia is a word created by fascists, used by cowards, to manipulate morons.” — Christopher Hitchens, an Islamosavvy Western Atheist

      British philosopher Anthony Flew also discussed the illogical errors in ‘Islamophobia’:

      “I would never regard Islam with anything but horror and fear, because it is fundamentally committed to conquering the world for Islam… it is, I think, best described in a Marxian way as the uniting and justifying ideology of Arab imperialism.”

      – Philosopher Anthony Flew renowned for his work on the philosophy of religion

      The Islamophobia accusation is non-empathetic, supremacist mirroring and psychological projection.

      The ‘Islamophobia’ slander-word is a Trojan-horse excuse for censorship. Moreover, it is a ‘Big Lie’ implying that one should not criticize a supremacist political ideology (Islamism), because the apologists of that supremacist ideology may have hurt feelings. If ‘hurt feelings’ are the ultimate criterion, then nothing controversial should ever be said, because someone will be upset.

      The Islamophobia slander is a distracting accusation based on seriously flawed reasoning. Our modern concern for universal human rights cannot reasonably be called a ‘phobia’.

      The ‘Islamophobia’ slander-word is merely an excuse for censorship and is a ‘big lie’, implying that one should not criticize a supremacist political ideology (Islamism), because the apologists of that supremacist ideology may have hurt feelings.

    The attitude of the OIC is the raison de affair for free and open discussion of how hate from the Quran influences weaker minds towards violence justifying it as Allah’s Will. It is sad that Individual OIC members are in denial or don’t comprehend the gravity of the situation. What would you replace Our Bill of Rights with if you were given the opportunity to do so? Please answer, I’m interested to know. What system today that exists today would you replace it with instead of Free Speech, expression and thought?

      -OIC delegates claim that Islam is a religion of peace and love, but a statistical analysis of the teachings of the Koran reveal an Allah who prefers hate, fear and terror to love.

      WORD FREQUENCY IN THE KORAN:
      – hate = 400 x; fear = 300 x; love = 49 x; love of something negative, e.g. love of $, etc.39 x; love of brother Moslems 5 x ; Allah does not love kafirs 25 x ; commandment to love Allah and give money to Mohammed 1 verse.

      While there are over 300 references in the Koran to Allah and fear, there are only 49 references to love. Of these love references, 39 are negative such as the 14 negative references to love of money, power, other gods and status.

      Three verses command humanity to love Allah and 2 verses are about how Allah loves a believer. There are 25 verses about how Allah does NOT love kafirs (disbelievers)

      This leaves 5 verses about love. Of these 5 verses, 3 are about loving kin or a Muslim brother. One verse commands a Muslim to give for the love of Allah. This leaves only one quasi-universal verse about love: give what you love to charity and even this is contaminated by dualism since Muslim charity only goes to other Muslims. There are over 400 teachings of hate directed against all disbelievers: Jews, Christians, Idolaters and Kafirs.

      So much for love. Hate and fear is what Allah demands in the Koran.

      The OIC members have beautiful opinions which are not borne out by the predominantly hateful verses in the Koran.

        Mortimer, Interesting facts and slightly disturbing. Playing the devils advocate, has anyone done a similar breakdown of the old & new testaments?
        It would be very interesting to see the comparison between the three books.

          Keith, here is a general breakdown–numbers vary somewhat depending on the version:

          https://www.christianbiblereference.org/faq_WordCount.htm

          They do not track the word “fear”, but “hate” appears in the New Testament between 13 and 18 times, and “love” between 179 and 232 times.

          Then, the phrase “fear not!” is used up to 365 times in the New Testament:

          https://www.soulshepherding.org/fear-not-365-days-a-year/

          Re the Qur’an, compare and contrast.

    Their book or murder and filth commands them to “terrorize.” Since they claim…daily…that islam and terrorism have no connection, aren’t they calling their mass-murdering, raper of children, slimy slug, lying son of satan the devil a “liar”?
    Of course, modern moslims say they are “freedom fighters,” and “holy warriors.” This is according to their own dictionary, which has no real meaning because they warp the meaning of every word that might apply to them…and others, such as “peace” and “compassion,” and “free speech.”

    The oic…coined the word that they have used every day till we are all nauseous from hearing and reading it, and they know for a fact that it has no real meaning. They just wanted to have a word that would make people of the world who like the Truth and are willing to say it, shut up.

    h. clinton told the oic back in 2011 that they would need to “shame” Americans into silence because the Constitution guarantees Freedom of Speech. So, the “phobia” of islam word is supposed to shame us so we will shut up. Much like they have glommed onto the word “racist” for the same reason.

    These creepy moslims, lying through their rotten teeth, know full well that our definition of “terrorism” fits what they do. Terrorism is used against the citizens of a nation in order to cause the government of that nation to change its policies and laws to favor the terrorists and their goals. (moslims want the governments of all nations to outlaw speech about islam and moslims and their book of demonic filth…and they are terrorizing until this happens. But, the terror won’t stop, even then.)

    This definition…my words…is from what I recall of reading dozens of definitions, trying to use the one by the FBI, so it is not exactly, probably, but I believe close enough for horseshoes.

    These moslims are not really fighting “terrorism,” and they have failed to make those who know the Truth about islam shut up by using the fake ‘phobia.’
    The “phobia’ of islam is about as fake as their “prophet” and their “god.”

    Either one understands just what islam is…may or may not fear; has been fooled into thinking it’s peaceful and just a ‘way of life’…too stupid to fear i; , or one lives among moslims who daily murder people in their beds, at work, at ice cream parlors, restaurants, theaters, on the street, at Christmas markets and has a ***real*** fear of dying at their filthy, bloodletting hands.

    islam is built on lies and that is all these oic scum are doing…propagating a mountain of lies…probably the one the mass-murdering, raper of children, slimy slug, lying son of satan is said to have forced to go to him.

    The oic is made up of the “57 states” ‘o’ said he had visited while running for president.
    He said, ” I have visited 57 States and have two more to go.” No one who could be ‘heard’ bothered to correct him; but it was one of those “slips” named for Dr. Freud.

      Interestingly enough, some of the countries in the OIC are heavily non Muslim countries. There are 10 such countries, w/ Muslim percentages way less than 50%: Guyana, Gabon, Uganda, Togo, Surinam, Mozambique, Cameroon, Benin, Ivory Coast and Guinea-Bissau. Honestly, they have no business belonging to this club. Take them out, and there are only about 47 Muslim countries worldwide.
