Continuing from my most recent blog (The Existential Threat to The Free World)

Islam is as much of a religion as Antifa would be.  Antifa is a political movement.  Islam is a political movement. Antifa is anti-fascist and anti-racist.  Islam is anti-Jewish and anti-Christian, and anti non-Islam. Antifa members resist the far-right, as extremists, or neo-Nazi’s as well as white supremacists (loosely defined).   Islam resists Islamophobes and critics, Jews, Christians and those fellow Muslims at any given time not in total agreement with a collective interpretation of the Rules, or schools of thought, of the tenets of the ideology (there are many).  Both groups ‘hate.’

Here is where the difference lies between Islam as a religion and an ideology. Islam has as its attribution a human, deceased in 632.  That is Muhammad.  Muhammad is the founder and in part creator of the Rules, or their Scripture, the Quran. Many who followed Muhammad, called Caliphs, added to the Rules, the Quran, inspired not by Allah, their Arabic for God, but by men, thus a reason in reality Islam is a male dominated political movement. The Quran is a manifesto. Men wrote these Rules and did so in the 7th and 8th centuries, barbaric and savory cultures, unprincipled and warlike, and oppressive towards woman. There were hundreds, or more, ideologies in play at that time, all labelled religions, most on display at the Kaaba in Mecca as a draw for merchants to gather annually to worship their idols and to trade.  Muhammad was a more learned individual, knew enough of the bible to accept there is but one god. He took action to strip the Kaaba of the figurines on display, the idols of adoration.

Muhammad wanted to be memorialized as a prophet, likened to the Biblical Prophets, as he shared his interpretation of what biblical knowledge he gained from a relative (mostly from the Old Testament).   From escapes from humankind into caves for several periods resulted in revelations also, Muhammad’s dreams, which he related to his followers in Medina as more original insights and forecasts.  

Of the ideologies at the time, the largest in numbers, true religions, were Jews and Christians.  They embraced the bible as God inspired.  The Jews and Christians never accepted Muhammad’s attempt to be referred to as a Prophet on the level of the many Prophets Christians and Jews revere. But Muhammad insisted his followers believe. He provided his interpretation of godlike proclamations as a seer and deliverer of the Rules.  He resented not being referred to as a Prophet. So too the people of Islam. That resentment led to hatred. 

Interpretations of a few biblical passages, taking liberties with the words, gave Muhammad, the Islamist leaders, educators, teachers (Imam’s) and preachers their key to unlocking the room they perceived as Holy for the most Holy of Prophets. They put Muhammad in the same room as Isaiah, Jeremiah, Jonah, all of the Prophets, to include Jesus.  That is what they wanted Muhammadians (his followers) to accept and proselytize. 

The Bible does state Arabs were of the family of Abraham, but so too is everyone in the world.  Arabs are from Abraham’s bastard child, Ishmael, his mother Egyptian (Arab). They are all semites. From that side of Abraham’s family would be one tribal group, and from his other son, Isaac, there would be another. From the lineage of Isaac came the Prophets and Jesus, not Muhammad. 

World populations are declining except for Islam.  

Free world developed countries rely on growth to continue an upward climb in their economies and living standards.  Families need to replicate themselves, even produce more, to have growth in their domain.  Europe and the United States are not producing enough offspring to grow without immigration.  So more populous areas of the world, where there is much poverty and limited education, can provide for the shortfall in birthrates and provide both the numbers and fill the jobs needed for GDP growth. Turkey, Pakistan, the Middle East became sources for needed labor. Politicians in countries once closed to even the thought of Islamic ideology recognized a need, and were accepting. Yet they were not fully educated in the Rules, the directives of the Quran (or Koran, if you prefer), or the history of Islam. Some are just ignorant, or simply reluctant, naive, not realizing people could continue to live in modern times under 7th century ideals. 

There is a feeling if people from Muslim third world areas move to civilized areas they will embrace the freedom and alter the way they live and think.  They may alter the way they live, enjoy modern conveniences, but not the way they think.  And they are taught to be cohesive as a unit, not assimilate with non-accepting peoples, and be patient.  Their numbers will grow, their influence will increase, and their voices will become heard, louder and louder, until….  

Well, here is the question, ‘until what?’  Are we headed for a world all for Islam.  Europe is changing rapidly. 

To quote Lewis Anselem (at thediplomad.blogspot.com) “Islamic civilization is a rotten house. Constant outside pressure either will collapse it, or force its miserable occupants to begin a serious effort at reforming and rebuilding it. Islam holds sway among some of the world’s potentially richest and most advanced countries, but that, in fact, are among the poorest and most retrograde on the planet. Islam as practiced is a failed ideology: it leads to slavery, stupidity, and poverty on a mass scale. The greatest victims of Islam are the Muslims forced to live under its tyrannical, mind-numbing, and brutal rule.”

But its worldwide presence and sympathizers seem to be growing, evidenced by the explosive appearance of antisemitism arising as a result of the Israel/Hamas war.  Israel is the victim.  Hamas is the aggressor.  Jews are a 90 to 1 minority versus Muslims.  Politicians are being pressured to call a stop to Israels’ need to eradicate the hate-filled Islamists, Hamas, as if these barbaric sexual predators and murderers are now the victim, as if Palestinians have a rightful claim to the area.  It was the Palestinian majority that voted Hamas into power, knowing their intentions.  

History is on the side of Israel.  Yet voices are being heard in support of a vast majority as if they are the oppressed minority.  The oppressed minority is Jews who have never called for death to Islamists.  While Islamist are taught in their madrassas and preached to in their mosques, “Jews are pigs, they are better dead.”  A reason I guess Muslims do not eat bacon. And they hate Christians too.  

Beware, in your nation, cities and towns of the construction of more and more madrassas and mosques, funded mostly by Saudi Arabia.  That is where Islam spreads its programs. There are no churches being built, even allowed, in Saudi Arabia.  Bibles are not allowed in a Muslim’s home. Beware too of billions ($’s) being given to our colleges and universities from the Middle East with conditions attached to tell history as the current leadership of Islam wants, and to portray Islam as a ‘religion,’ as ‘a religion of peace.’  Both claims are false.  

Islam is not a good neighbor.  It is more satanic than godly.  When welfare props up their expansion they are pleased while laughing at the givers.  Consider the kibbutz where many Jews were massacred and sexual atrocities occurred.  A neighborhood close to the Gaza border that helped Palestinians get work in Israel, provided transportation, assisted in access to medical care, provided medical care, and provided food and shelter if needed.  What thanks did they get for their love.  That is what to expect when Islam becomes a neighbor.

That is why Islam is the existential threat to the world.
