The most important thing is to tell the truth no matter how much they shout "Islamophobia!"

The media and most of our so-called "leaders" still refuse to tell the truth that Islamic terrorism is caused by Islam itself.

Some countries in Europe have gone so far as to make it illegal to tell the truth about Islam. It takes courage to fight Islamic bombs and hate with mere words of sincere honesty, especially when you will be mocked by the media, perhaps fired from your job, and maybe even fined or imprisoned.

Bogus arguments that you can easily refute:

  • "Saying bad things about Islam is Islamophobic".

    What if those things are true, and well documented by Muslims themselves? Doesn't that make Muslim apologists Truthophobic?

  • "Islamic terrorism is caused mostly by US policy in the Mideast"

    Then how do you explain Islamic murder of random innocent people in Denmark, Sweden, Germany, Argentina, Russia, Nigeria, Kenya, India, China, Thailand, Bali, the Phillipinies, etc? They had nothing to do with US policy in the Mideast.

    It is, however, valid to point out that Islamic terror in each country generally followed Saudi funding of Wahhabi madrassas (Koranic schools) in that country, and that America always supports Saudi Arabia no matter what they do. So it is Americas fault to some degree, for supporting Saudi Arabia. And it is also true that George W Bush's attack on Iraq in bogus "retaliation" for the Saudi attack on America on 9/11 greatly inflamed the existing problem. Bush should be in jail for starting a war under false pretenses.

  • "American wars are also terrorism"

    No, terrorism is the deliberate murder of random unarmed civilians. America does not try to kill civilians. If we did try, they would all be dead.

    The only reason we are not all dead is that the Islamic world is so weak and ineffective.

  • "Islamic terrorism is caused by inequality and poverty"

    Not it's not. Most terrorists are fairly well educated and not poor. In fact, propensity to Islamic terrorism increases with income and education. Osama bin Laden was very rich.

    Islamic terrorism is motivated mainly by a desire to prove devotion to Islam to other Muslims, and to one's family. "See, look how many kuffar I killed! Aren't you proud?" The horrifying part is that most so-called "moderate" Muslims and the families of terrorists are indeed proud of the terrorists for "fighting back" against dirty unbelievers by killing random unarmed civilians, such as teen girls in Manchester.

  • "Muslims used to be more peaceful, so it's something we've done to them."

    No, Muslims were always this way. What's different is that now they can use the Internet, and especially YouTube, to share and amplify their resentment of all non-Muslims and their bomb-making techniques. Google helps terrorists by spreading terrorist ideology via YouTube.

    If you've done anything to offend Muslims, it's simply being part of a successful, generally happy and tolerant non-Muslim society, clearly proving that Islam is not only unnecessary, but obviously a huge impediment to success, happiness, and tolerance.

    "In March 1786, Thomas Jefferson and John Adams went to London to negotiate with Tripoli's envoy, ambassador Sidi Haji Abdrahaman (or Sidi Haji Abdul Rahman Adja). When they enquired "concerning the ground of the pretensions to make war upon nations who had done them no injury", the ambassador replied:

    "It was written in their Koran, that all nations which had not acknowledged the Prophet were sinners, whom it was the right and duty of the faithful to plunder and enslave; and that every mussulman who was slain in this warfare was sure to go to paradise. He said, also, that the man who was the first to board a vessel had one slave over and above his share, and that when they sprang to the deck of an enemy's ship, every sailor held a dagger in each hand and a third in his mouth; which usually struck such terror into the foe that they cried out for quarter at once.[25]

    Jefferson reported the conversation to Secretary of Foreign Affairs John Jay, who submitted the ambassador's comments and offer to Congress. Jefferson argued that paying tribute would encourage more attacks."

    Note the year, 1786. The Constitution was created in 1787, and ratified in 1788. The reason we have a Constitutional republic is largely to enable Congress to raise an army and navy, and the reason America needed that was largely because Islam says what it says.

  • "Christians are terrorists too"

    So rarely as to make the comparison comical. The difference is about 1,000-fold. For every Christian attack on an abortion clinic there are about 1,000 Islamic attacks on random people. See http://www.thereligionofpeace.com/

  • "Christianity also teaches evil things"

    No, Jesus himself did not rob, rape, or kill anyone. Mohammed robbed, raped, and killed lots of people. For just one example of many, Mohammed murdered Safiya's father, then tortured her husband to death to get him to tell the location of his money, then raped her the same day, according to Islamic history.
    There is no exhortation to hate in the New Testament, but butt-hurt resentment of non-Muslims is the main theme of the Koran and the hadith. See https://patrick.net/Islam

    It is true that the Old Testament has some similarities to Islam in its very harsh punishments for violating its rules, and some genocidal wars.

  • "Islam is tolerant of other religions"

    No, Islam allows Jews and Christians to remain alive (outside of Saudi Arabia) but only if they pay an annual ransom (jizya) to Muslims under deliberately humiliating conditions, and "feel themselves subdued". Hindus, athiests, and members of other religions are officially not allowed to live at all, and must be killed, according to Islam. No other religion is allowed to exist in Saudi Arabia. No synagogues or churches, no torahs or bibles allowed.

    Anyone who leaves Islam must also be killed, according to Islam. And this is actually the law in many Islamic countries.

  • "But Jesus is part of Islam too"

    Not the same "Jesus" at all. Muslims believe that Jesus was a Muslim first of all, and was never crucified and reject the whole story about his redeeming mankind with his own sacrifice. They also believe he will come back in the final days to kill the Jews. They use the name "Isa" and say he is the same Jesus, but he's obviously a totally different guy with far different ideals. They do not include the gospels at all in their beliefs.

  • "But I have good Muslim friends. They would not murder people."

    Of course, most Muslims are better human beings than Muslims. If they are friends with you at all, they are already violating Islam, for the Koran says (5:51) - "O you who believe! do not take the Jews and the Christians for friends. It's good to be friends with them, and to tell them the truth about Islam because they will listen if you are friendly and don't make it about them personally.

  • "Muslims tell me that Islam doesn't teach those awful things"

    Lying to non-Muslims is officially a praiseworthy part of being a Muslim. Muslims are encouraged to lie about anything that makes Islam look bad. You can easily look up the truth for yourself. See http://www.thereligionofpeace.com/ for a good introduction to the truth.

  • "Terrorist are not real Muslims"

    Sorry, but they are actually very authentic Muslims doing what their religion commands them to do. Who are you to tell them they are not Muslim? They are giving their lives for Islam by killing unbelievers. At least they are honest about it. If they are not Islamic, then Mohammed was not Islamic either. The head of ISIS has a PhD in Islamic studies. He knows exactly what he's doing and why.

    If someone says "radical Islam", you should ask them which version of the Koran these radicals are reading and acting on. Is it any different from the moderate Muslims' Koran?

  • "Most Muslims are not terrorists"

    True, but most terrorists are indeed Muslim, and most "moderate" Muslims have sympathy for radical Muslims' terrorist attacks. And so we have the saying "Radical Muslims want to kill you. Moderate Muslims want radical Muslims to kill you."

  • "It's racist to talk about the connection between Islam and terrorism."

    No it isn't. Islam has made murderers out of people of all races. It's very egalitarian that way. Chinese Muslims murder random non-Muslims in China, and Nigerian Muslims murder random non-Muslims in Nigeria. The only thing they have in common is the Islamic teaching to hate and murder non-Muslims.

  • "We need to open our doors to refugees"

    No, Muslim countries need to open their doors to Muslim refugees, especially oil-rich Muslim countries. The majority of so-called "refugees" are angry young men looking for easy money and easy women in the West. The legitimate Muslim refugees are nonetheless still infected with a very dangerous virus of the mind, and their children often grow up with hate for the host countries that generously took in their parents, such as the Manchester bomber who blew up all those teen girls.

  • "The principal victims of Islam are other Muslims"

    This is true. But we are talking about protecting ourselves from Islam here.

  • "You're more likely to get attacked by a shark than murdered by a terrorist"

    Nope, there are only about 20 shark attacks per year, and Islamic terrorist attacks kill tens of thousands worldwide and are increasing exponentially.

  • "The constitution forbids excluding Muslims based on religion"

    No, the constitution forbids the government from establishing a state religion. Non-citizens may be excluded from entry for any reason or no reason at all. Islam is more than just a religion. It is a violent subversive political movement which demands that secular government be overthrown and replaced with sharia. We banned communists for decades for much less violence and subversion.

  • "It's pointless and dangerous to offend a billion Muslims"

    No, it's more dangerous to shut up and let your family and civilization die because you were merely too sensitive to speak the truth in time. Muslims are human beings. Deep in their core they know that there is something very wrong with Islam, and they need encouragement from millions of honest people to admit this so that they can free themselves and rejoin the rest of humanity. If you speak with respect and sincerity, they are likely to listen.

    They never hear the truth about Islam in their home countries, so it's up to us. Speak up or die.

  • "There is nothing you can do"

    OK, then Islamic atrocities are now to be expected and tolerated and there is no reason to be alarmed. Please continue moving toward the slaughterhouse in an orderly manner.

Here are some nonviolent ways we can end Islamic terrorism in the West: End all Islamic immigration, instantly revoke citizenship and deport all members of the extended families of anyone who commits terrorism in the West (this idea was proposed by an English Muslim in the wake of the Manchester bombing), allow freedom of speech about Islam, and stop teaching that Islam is a religion of peace, because it is not. And Trump has a good line: Islamic terrorists are losers, so call them that.

If you want to take the long view, stop using foreign oil, and demand that we cut off all diplomatic relations with the ultimate source of almost all terrorism: Saudi Arabia.

I don't know. China seems to be a basically religion-free society that functions as well as any other.

Patrick, I think that If you live in China, you wouldn't think of it that way. I been there, there is a lot of bondage. A lot of really poor people who are no more than indentured slaves to the elite. They work insane hours, they get paid very little, they have no hope for the future since communist government requires complete conviction to it's communist party. Not to mention pollution and one child policy. They have very few rights. Their government is successful and financially well off, but citizens below might as well be second class citizens.

It's really heart wrenching how poorly humans can treat other fellow humans, especially when profit motive is in play.

Sweden functions in a very civilized manner.

Sweden is an anti-hoe seeing culture.

The Swedes who want their freedom to boink, take the causeway to Copenhagen, Denmark.

151   Dan8267   2017 May 29, 4:20pm  

Your post reminds me of the Copenhagen interpretation. If a hoe is in a closed motel room with Rin, and you are standing outside unable to observe the two, is the hoe in a superposition of boinked and unboinked states until you open the door? According to the Copenhagen interpretation, yes. This is why I'm a pilot-wave guy. I know Rin has boinked the hoe as soon as he could.

152   Patrick   2017 May 29, 4:22pm  

I'm quite certain the probability of the hoe being in the boinked state rapidly approaches one as time increases.

Since 2000 On US Soil:
8 murders by left-wing radicals, 53 murders by the right-wing radicals, and 95 murders by jihadist radicals

We can argue about how things are counted. Brietbart wants to push the number up by +10 for radical Islam because the beltway sniper attended a mosque once.

Fine. Add all these terrorist murders, combined, and compare to any other domestic social issue causing great harm to American society. That issue you choose is likely to overshadow the threat of terrorism in the US. 9/11 and the rise of high profile attacks across the world have overinflated the actual domestic threat of radical Islamic terror attacks in the US by many orders of magnitude. (The real issue is there is great current of anxiety in the world, mostly caused by economic anxiety, and actually "telling the truth" about the random acts of violence another human may inflict on you isn't really "helpful".)

If you are really interested in fighting the Islamic radicalism threat to the US you/we need to figure out an effective counter to internet based jihadi propaganda. It's responsible for 45% of the recent attacks on US soil as a root cause for radicalization and action. I think you will also find that that internet content is in no way comparable to mainstream Islam as practiced anywhere in the world. Funnily enough, that same internet, also responsible for rises in right-wing terror groups in the US too.

I would like to apply any solutions and tactics found, against all radical fringe ideologies with tendencies toward violence, whether they be: right, left, secular, or religious.

F* violent radicals of all types and beliefs.

Rin says

The Orlando gunman was a repressed, Islamic closet gay guy.

If his father had died, when he was a boy and he'd been raised by me, we would have gotten drunk, attended Metallica concerts together, and f.ucked hoes around the world.

And then one day ... he realizes that instead of poking the likes of a Selma Hayek look-a-like, he'd rather do a male Chippendale's model, well, at that point, we'd part ways at the hotel, so that I go into my private quarters with a busty lingerie model, whereas he goes back to his suite with an Adonis type. I don't need anymore details than that. Really ... I don't want to know.

In the morning, we meet up for breakfast. He's happy and then realizes, he doesn't need to go on a killing spree to be content in life.

He can f.uck man hoes and I can f.uck, female hoes. All is well in the world.

Aside from undercounting by 97%, you assume past performance guarantees future results. The jihadis would kill 100x more if they could, and will if they can.

You omit also the chilling effects on western liberty, when blasphemy ("Islamophobia") gets prohibited and westerners have to give up western liberty for Islam. MIC mass surveillance might seem great to you, but should repel you. Those who would sacrifice liberty for security deserve neither. Islam poses a worse threat than communism, and jihadis have already killed more Americans in America than Russia ever did.

True, an acquaintance of the Manchester bomber (or was it a London bridge attacker? so many murders by Muslims lately it's hard to keep track) said that the guy was radicalized by watching YouTube videos of Musa Jibril, so YouTube does have blood on its hands for allowing incitement to terrorism.

Musa Jibril simply spouts the ISIS arguments, which is essentially identical to the official Saudi Wahhabi theology. So you're wrong that he's not comparable to "mainstream" Islam.

161   curious2   2017 Jun 6, 5:57pm

PM May is trying to use him as an excuse to increase government power to censor the Internet while continuing to empower and spread Islam. Britons should resent that. It reminds me of Democrats trying to use jihadi gun attacks as an excuse for gun control (disarming Christians), while deliberately omitting the fact the jihadis had bombs too. And of course the Democrats' nominee for VP, who deplored the "gun violence" at Ohio State, which consisted solely of a Police Officer shooting the jihadi refugee who had been in the process of running over and stabbing teenagers. Blaming the Internet (as Rew did above) is another way to deflect blame away from where it belongs: on the dead charlatan Mohamed and his hateful fraud of Islam. The problem is Islam itself, and western leaders' failure to denounce it, not a lack of censorship. Continuing to support KSA while also taking away western liberty is working for the wrong side.

Yes, he prevented it from being subdivided and made too weak and poor to develop Nukes. Bangladesh wasn't enough, though it was a start. India could have had controlled puppets in 3-5 different statelets with lots of internal struggles. If one statelet got too powerful or stable, instigate a border war or fund the controlled opposition or bribe some generals to stage a coup.

Criticism precedes Change.
Executing anyone for criticizing Islam was probably the most brilliant approach used by Mohammad to ensure Islam remains in control of the masses. It has worked brilliantly so far, but now we are in the internet age. It's very difficult to control what is said on the internet. Every Muslim child, sooner or later, will be exposed to the truth about Islam and Mohammad. They will see the truth about Islam, start questioning the sharia laws, and many will dump Islam. The days of Islam as we know it are numbered.
My fear are the spread of powerful weapons that Islamists are no doubt working day and night at acquiring.

One way or another, the west must persuade Muslims to give up Islam before Muslims acquire the capacity to impose Islam upon the west. Sadly, Nixon's deals have given KSA so much influence over western politicians that we might lose.

The current expedient of appeasing and bribing Muslims only makes Islam stronger, as President Jefferson warned. Containment and the MAD doctrine worked against atheist communists, but would not work against suicidal Muslims.

You really believe Qatar is taking the fight to the terrorists with the most potential and desire to do us harm? That's pretty stupid and blind to the politics of the region.

Saudi Arabia just met our poof haired silver spoon debutant, he purred like a kitten for them, and they realize they can get away with things they could never have under the Obama reign. That's why KSA and her allies have black marked Qatar. Now, wait and watch for a reaction from Iran.

You are so stupid if you believe anyone on Earth is safer because of Trump. The Middle East is now destabilizing further, because of Trump's very visit, and ... by the way ... very unlikely Israel is anxious to help us with any regional intelligence because we are so incompetent with who it gets to.

By the time D-day arrived Germany had conquered most of Europe and North Africa. No one was saying this about them at the time.

What people are saying about Germany right now though, well, they are pretty much the key reason Europe is holding together still.

What is the world saying about the US? Oh, that we are backing away from all our allies, not supporting NATO, and stepping back from being the key nation leading the world.

The only Europeans who should be proud right now are the Poles and Hungarians. They turned back several Islamic Invasions, while Germans and French were infighting and supplying Ottomans with arms for profit.

They were also abandoned by Western Europe in WW2 and the aftermath.

Who is bringing the Muslims into Europe?

Who broke Dublin to invite them in, and now insisting everybody follow Dublin when it comes to distributing them?

While lying about Europe being a Union, when it's really the 4th Reich, with Eastern and Southern Europe as colonies?

Since when does the West treat a dangerous ideology almost wholly consisting in adherence of Foreign Immigrants and their immediate offspring with kid gloves?

Right now, those who recognize the dangers of Islamism are the Churchills of the day. Churchill was lambasted for warning about Hitler as a warmongering, out-of-touch, Chicken Little Scaremongering Old Fool throughout the 30s. Not just in the UK, but in the US and France as well. Because of Fascism Denialists, the UK was literally almost wiped out.

The point is, we have always been tolerant of distasteful regimes and idealogy when is serves us. Just like any other nation. But, if you like a more contemporary example, it happened when we, the US, repeatedly invaded countries with no plans to rebuild thereafter, setting off instability on scale orders even we didn't really have the will to do anything about.

For Europe, as soon as there wasn't enough will and unity to act to do something to counter the first great climate refugees of the 21st century (Syria), it happened. Europe's inability to act was caused by the Global Financial meltdown and austerity programs they inflicted on Eastern Europe.

If America doesn't want to be the central nation, helping hold world order together, and be the beacon to the rest of the world, not only will the world suffer, but so will we. It could get darn barbaric, real fast, real soon.

We have a lot less to feel proud of right now. A lot lot less.

climate refugees

You mean the "climate" of NATO raining bombs on their countries, while Saudis were showering Sunni Militias with money and weapons, and DoS and CIA ran a rat line funneling weapons from Libya to Syria and blood everywhere, that "climate" produced refugees. That's almost as euphemistic as when you forgot the 3,000 Americans killed on 9/11.

Also, over 1,000 years, the "climate refugees" seem always to be Muslims moving into Christian countries, from the Moors and Saracens to the MENA today. Somehow you never see Buddhist or Christian or Hindu "climate refugees" finding shelter in Muslim countries. That must be some sort of Islamic astrophysics, I think it's called hijrah.

No, I mean exactly what I said. Climate refugees. Syria is an entire country which descended into chaos because it couldn't cope with a massive drought. (drought -> farmers cannot make a living -> migrate to cities -> unemployed and economically destitute -> desperation and unrest -> civil war) That is the primary causation of the Syrian civil war. Any and every side, thereafter, is simply a political interest overlaid on-top of that perpetuating framework.

Our foreign policy and national defense vary by insignificant measures depending on who (D or R) is in office. These things are really unchanged no matter who is at the helm.

But that's a nice R talking point you have there.

Fantastic News:

The Met Police have arrest 25 for hate crimes over the past two days. That's more than those suspected of having a role in the recent attacks.

Glad Khan's priorities are straight.

Meanwhile...

A NURSERY worker was stabbed on her way to work by three girls shouting “Allah will get you”, it has been claimed.

The victim was walking down Wanstead High Street at around 9.30am today (Wednesday, June 7) when she was attacked by three girls.

Her boss, manager of Little Diamonds Nursery in Hermon Hill, Karrien Stevens, said: “She got to the Hermon Hill traffic lights when she was attacked from behind by three girls who pulled her to the ground.

“They started kicking and punching her and then took out a knife and slashed her arm.

“Apparently they were shouting parts of the Qur’an saying things like ‘Allah will get you.”

The nursery boss said the attackers ran off when a man came to rescue the woman, aged in her 30s, and take her to work.

Ms Stevens added: “When she got to work we couldn’t believe it and called the police straight away.

“It’s terrible, I’m absolutely horrified.

“You don’t expect something like this to happen on your doorstep.”

The stabbing comes four days after the terror attacks in central London when three attackers drove into people at random on London Bridge before stabbing innocent victims at random in restaurants and bars around Borough Market.

Wow.

Some of your other comments show a lot of enthusiasm for war, e.g. bombing Syria. I infer from those and your comment above that you probably supported the Iraq War. Based on that, I am guessing you've probably supported the war in Syria for years.

Most people would say the situation in Syria results from (a) the Iraq war, (b) ISIL, (c) Hillary's War in Libya funneling weapons into Syria via rat line, (d) the NATO/Saudi war in Syria. Certainly most Syrians blame America and foreign fighters.

You blame a drought. Not the military's fault, not the fault of the bombs, not the fault of government policy, not MIC, not any of your friends, nope, just weather. That's amazing. Many of the videos from Syria show fighters shooting at each other across verdant fields that nobody can harvest due to the shooting, but you don't see any of that at all, only drought.

Can you cite any well informed Syrians who agree with you? On a related point, can you name any American wars that turned out to be horrible mistakes?

Who is "most"? Are you talking about Assad's minority clan that rules the country that blames our country?

Everything I have read and seen on Syria shows that the majority Sunni population blames Assad, Iran, Hezbollah and Russia for the massive destruction and violence.

The Syrian Arab Spring protests started peacefully until Assad started jailing and torturing to death children followed up by rubbling their cities and using chemical weapons. Too bad Assad's clan refused to peacefully share power to match the demographic reality of the country and has now radicalized a good chunk of the population who will turn to ISIS for support.
