A Few Basics

What you need to know about Islam, of which Hamas is a part. Within Islam there are several sects; most known are Sunni and Shiite. Iran is a Shiite theocracy. Saudi Arabia is a Sunni monarchy. Overlapping and within is the Muslim Brotherhood. They made headlines after the uprisings in Egypt, won an election and were subsequently removed in a coup by el Sisi, the current President. The Muslim Brotherhood is considered a fundamentalist Sunni political and social movement. They are militant, embraced by Hamas and most Palestinians. For the most part the Arab world does not want adherents to the Muslim Brotherhood within their borders. That is a reason many Arab nations will not take-in Palestinian refugees.

The Quran: A book of hatred towards non-Muslims, with rules to follow, many towards the elimination of those opposed to Islam. Rules to condemn those that leave Islam (Apostasy Laws) and laws of governance. Treatment of women is noted, different for Muslim women and non-Muslim women. Women are but chattel. Non-Muslim women can be treated inhumanly, used for the pleasure of Muslim men without consequences within the framework of Islam’s law.

A Pentagon briefing paper in 2006, titled “Motivations of Muslim Suicide Bombers,” pointed to the Quran as the main source of the pathological hatred that fills the mind and heart of every Muslim suicide bomber.

The barbarism committed by Muslim radicals has involved diverse ethnic groups of Muslim fundamentalists in many parts of the word, not all are part of the Muslim Brotherhood, such as ISIS.

Quran and Hadiths (mainstream schools of Islamic thoughts, word and deeds. Words of Muhammad) are a cohesive source that motivates all Muslims to commit such atrocities. Certainly exceptions exist within the Muslim world, many have some humanity in their hearts, but they are still taught (indoctrinated) and their leaders preach a global world all for Islam, by whatever means. Throughout the world, in madrasas (and mosques) mostly funded by Saudi Arabia, Muslim children are fed the poisonous venom of hatred by the compulsory reading of “Jews as ‘apes’ and Christians as ‘pigs’“

Colleges and universities in the United States have received large donations, billions, with conditions imposed to institute curriculums that distort the true intentions of Islam, as well as the history of Islam. They seek to make ‘Islamophobia,” questioning this ideology, as hateful towards Islam. In addition they want students to learn, or be indoctrinated, to think of Muslims as oppressed and treated harshly as a class, and thus receive more support and favorable treatment.

Muslims are allowed multiple wives, and where marriage of more than one woman is not permitted, multiple partners. The purpose is to produce children, increase their population. In many countries financial aide is readily available based on numbers of children in families, as well as unmarried women with children. Collectively in a Muslim household the sums can add up and be quite substantial.

It is a myth that “Islam is a religion of peace”, yet in the western free world that is what many want to believe. It is what Islam wants you to believe.  Couple that with being aggressive.  Again Islam claims it is not aggressive, until attacked, threatened, even questioned.  The concept of Islamophobia, expressing doubts,  riles them as an attack on their system, thus justifying retaliation. 

Well over 150 verses spread over hundreds of pages in the Quran incite in the name of Allah acts of violence directed against Jews and Christians. These verses sanction terrorist actions, sexual atrocities. They forecast doomsday for Jews and Christians at the hand of Muslims, beheadings (smiting), death in an earthy hell of Muslim design and timing (such as Oct 7 in Israel, or 911), instill fear in non-Muslims, make war on Jews and Christians to save civilization, become a martyr (suicide bomber, die in the streets of Palestine), and tell Muslims to avoid assimilation (do not make friends with the enemy).  Most of this is because Christians and Jews will not recognize their prophet, Muhammad, as a biblical prophet.  

A quote, “If scholars and academics thought that Mein Kampf, written by the psychopath Adolf Hitler, was the first literature demonizing and dehumanising Jews, they should go for an in-depth study of the Quran before making such claims.”

“About 15% of the 1.8 billion Muslims in the world are now fundamentalists. That’s about 270 million Muslim zealots scattered over the world…,” who one person noted are, “ready to cast into the fierce fire of hell Jews and Christians who for centuries have rejected the revelations of the prophet Muhammad.”  Said by the same person, “Only a politician willing to bury his head in the sand will consider 270 million radicals as ‘a few’ misguided individuals.” 

Muslims are required to tithe each year (Zakat) an amount, given the population of Muslims (1.8 billion), in the multi-billions ($’s) each year. This is not charity, but a requisite/compulsory. This money goes to the leaders, the preachers, the teachers, the Imams. They do not need to work, only promote the dictates of the Quran.  It is a financial windfall for the power structure. A living as a productive member of society is not necessary. For those in oil rich countries they believe Allah has provided the added benefit of money through the discovery of a plentiful resource (aided by Britain in Iran and the United States in Saudi Arabia).  Why work?  

What might happen to the Islamic supreme structure if this compulsory charity was no longer. 

An Essential Truth

Islam is a demonic approach to denuding a civilized world. Islam is a manmade ideology, misogynistic and globalistic, hateful and oppressive towards women and many minorities, aggressive and against freedom. Manmade in that the scripture is but laws designed for male dominance (Quran and Hadiths)(Sharia) and guiding adherents towards striking those who do not follow, even killing them. It basically calls for males to be it’s army. And women to produce more soldiers. It gives exceptions to, privileges to, the elite or the militant.

And one can question as to Allah being God, but a figurehead reigning supreme over everyone, an autocrat as a Caesar who called himself a god. This dogma insists followers comply fully to its dictates and make proclamations of support, whether there is an element of doubt or not, or else. Cries of “Allahu Akbar” can be interpreted as Hail Caesar or Heil Hitler.

It is the Islamic-way or the cemetery.

Consider values, such as respect for life, individual freedoms.  In achieving the objectives set forth in Islam’s scripture Islam sanctifies death over life.  That is difficult for western civilizations to understand. The end justifies the means.  

To Christians and Jews, to citizens of the western world raised under and taught the principles of Judeo-Christian values, even atheists, human rights are highly regarded, and sacred is the sanctity of life.  Leave no man behind. 

How can the West co-exist, even win a long term battle for world supremacy, when it also respects the life of a Muslim, a human being, but the Muslim does not reciprocate. Loving a neighbor that wants to destroy you is a challenge. Islamists are willing to pay a higher price, their lives, to defeat western values. But we will still insist Muhammad is not a Prophet. This is a troubling reality. How does a civilized society, the 21st century, deal with the Islamic culture that constantly calls for a continuance of life in the 7th century. Modernity and freedom is anathema to Islam’s fundamentals, yet they hypocrisy is they embrace technology today, the cars, the iPhones, the large screen TV’s and weaponry.

Politicians must strengthen hate laws. It is hatred of western values, Christians and Jews, professed by adherents and used as motivation to compel Islamic fundamentalists to commit barbaric atrocities. We need to provide law enforcement the tools to incarcerate or deport. In the free world those committing such crimes are not “misguided naive individuals.” They are indoctrinated to hate. Their hatred kills. Their hatred destroys cultures. Their hatred disrupts peaceful co-existence.

The Spread of Islam

The dogma of the Middle East has been carried into Europe, elsewhere too, where madrassas and mosques have been planted with Middle Eastern money. I oppose referring to Islamists as ‘religious.’ They are not. They are ideologues. Islam is a manmade ideology, a political construct. It is not a religion. It would be as referring to Antifa as a religion, when it is a left-wing political movement, anti-fascist and anti-racist. Islam is also a political movement, anti-Jew and anti-Christian, while openly professing ‘death’ to those they oppose. Many oppose America, with their “death to America” rankings.

As Islam has tried since the 8th Century to invade Europe, failing in 720 (Tours) and 1683 (Vienna), it is now welcomed, by boat, train and plane. It is indeed present, Islam has landed, and to be feared in Europe.  

Europe is separated by a large body of ocean from America.  Only the actions of those at the helm of the American Ship of State, such as Biden, and those that are his puppeteers, can prevent a further spread of Islam into our great nation.  That should be a concern to anyone.

The Example of Islamic Fundamentalism at the Hands of Hamas

A few quotes regarding events of October 7, 2023 in Israel.

“Words like “barbaric” and “savage” don’t begin to capture the demonic evil with which Hamas sexually tortured so many Jewish women and girls. The eyewitness accounts in are horrific. Unspeakable.”

“I saw this beautiful woman with the face of an angel and 8 or 10 of the fighters beating and raping her.   She was screaming, ‘Stop it — I’m going to die anyway from what you are doing, just kill me!’ When they finished they were laughing  and the last one shot her in the head.”

“Opening the body bags was scary as we didn’t know what we would see,” [a forensic worker] told The Sunday Times. “Their faces were in anguish and often their fingers clenched as they died. We saw women whose pelvises were broken. Legs broken. There were women who had been shot in the crotch, in the breasts.”

“Every one of the Hamas Nazis who committed these atrocities deserves to be hunted down and killed. As for the college-educated antisemites in the West who cheer or defend or minimize or deny these crimes against humanity — who excuse them as “resistance” or “decolonization” — they are the lowest, vilest moral scum.”

Not an Israeli, but a Hamas official Fathi Hammad said, “Hamas is ISIS and is preparing to establish an Islamic Caliphate from Gaza and Jerusalem.”

These are sexual atrocities. 

“We are now hearing new evidence that Hamas drugged freed Gaza hostages to make them seem calm & happy for the terror group’s propaganda release videos. An Israeli Health Ministry official said that former hostages reported receiving clonazepam (Klonopin) before they were released from captivity.”

NYT: “The body of one woman had ‘nails and different objects in her female organs. In another house, a person’s genitals were so mutilated that ‘we couldn’t identify if it was a man or a woman.’

Shari Mendes, a member of an Israeli military reserve unit tasked with preparing the bodies of fallen female soldiers for burial, said her team saw several who were killed on Oct. 7 ‘who were shot in the crotch, intimate parts, vagina, or were shot in the breast.’ Others had mutilated faces, or multiple gunshots to their heads.”  The purpose was to humiliate the victims.

And let’s be clear Palestinians elected by majority the terrorist party Hamas to rule over them. Palestinians are not the good neighbors the many protests in their support make them out to be, they would prefer Israel not exist. Palestinians vastly support Hamas’s barbaric tactics and the killing of Jews. They are not innocent. If you want to make an exception, then maybe 15% are not Hamas supporters.

The history of the area that is Gaza, or Palestine, predates the presence of Muslims, as such was never a separate entity, but associated with Jerusalem.

Jerusalem was claimed by Muhammad in the 7th century, when he went to Medina, as a focus of his prayers (Qiblah) due to its historical religious significance. By the second ‘Hijri’ year the focus became Mecca, where Muhammad was born and the Kaaba is located, and has remained. It was after his death (632) that Jerusalem was captured by the emerging Muslim army (636), the Muhammadians, an act of pure aggression.

Conclusion

If you read this then, maybe, you have learned something.  Caveat emptor.  Beware.
