I would be interested in arguments for the merits of Islam and/or why any non-Moslem would consider it a good thing if more Moslems lived in their town or neighborhood.

But muh Vetting Process!!!

The way she described it, it seems like the vetting would be easy. Just pluck out the 30 yr old guys with cell phones pushing their way to the front. Put them on a boat, and drop them on an island. Take the shell shocked ones who have been missing meals and check in on their mental state. I'd imagine it would be harder than that.

But they don't, as she stated. They simply waved them on. This is not all dissimilar from other refugee Crisis elsewhere, like in Africa.

This is the "Process" problem. Sometimes the Process is not used. Defense Attorneys in Civil Suits often present their big binder stored processes written down, and lose their case, because the plaintiff can show that the process either isn't followed or was never actually followed and was just something to bring out in case of a lawsuit.

That's why I snicker when I hear about "Process".

Bavarian police are trying to establish the motive

oh FFS...

behind the murder of an Afghan woman who sought refuge in Germany and has reportedly converted to Christianity. The attacker, also an Afghan asylum seeker, stabbed the woman to death in front of her children.


What or what could be the motive, the whole world wonders.

The 38-year-old woman was attacked by the 29-year-old man not far from a supermarket in the Bavarian town of Prien am Chiemsee on Saturday. The German tabloid Bild has alleged that the woman attended a Christian church service, citing the victim’s sister.

The attack took place in front of the woman’s two children, aged five and 11. Before the assault, the man reportedly shouted something in his mother tongue to the woman.


Gee, I wonder what on Earth what he could have possibly shouted?

The man kept on stabbing his victim until a duty policeman and several passersby dragged him aside. He has been temporarily sent to a closed psychiatric institution.

The woman later died in the hospital from her injuries.

Authorities have ordered an autopsy of the victim. However, it may take up to several weeks to get the results, police spokesman Andreas Guske said, according to local news outlet Chiemgau24.

Amazing. Weeks to get a cause of death after she was stabbed on a street in broad daylight in front of multiple witnesses, and the assailant, bloody knife in hand, had to be restrained by multiple people including a police officer. I'd like to think it's just Germans being persnickity and bureaucratic.

Maybe the Alien was trying to claw it's way out of her body.

That's the bizarre part. Sometimes I wonder why they cannot take advantage of the chaos to sneak some moles into the camps and just weed out the obvious nut-jobs. It would be expensive, but the alternative isn't all that cheap in the long run.

NGOs financing depends on getting people processed. Young Men are easier to move forward than Families, and cost less money to move down the line.

Then they only take pictures of women and children for revenue streams. It's a business, and you'd be shocked how much even small NGO executives make - while paying the staff who does the grunt work, bupkiss.

Yes, many are paid per "eligible" claimant, and different NGOs have different "processes," so claimants can share information about what lies to tell to get through each process. And, after ISIL/Daesh captured Syrian passport facilities and government records offices, vetting became impossible, by Hillary Clinton's own admission.

What have the fucking Saudis with all their wealth ever done for other Muslims?

They generously offered to build 200 attack bases mosques in Germany:

Hillary Clinton herself signed a memo saying that Saudi Arabia knowingly funds Lashkar-e-Taiba (LeT), and that Qatar's assistance is the worst in the region.

I guess the Legacy of Hindu and Sikh Colonialism of the Pashtu causes all this hate (LOL).

https://www.theguardian.com/world/us-embassy-cables-documents/220186

"More needs to be done since Saudi Arabia remains a critical financial support base for al-Qaida, the Taliban, LeT and other terrorist groups," says a secret December 2009 paper signed by the US secretary of state. Her memo urged US diplomats to redouble their efforts to stop Gulf money reaching extremists in Pakistan and Afghanistan.

"Donors in Saudi Arabia constitute the most significant source of funding to Sunni terrorist groups worldwide," she said.

Three other Arab countries are listed as sources of militant money: Qatar, Kuwait and the United Arab Emirates.

The cables highlight an often ignored factor in the Pakistani and Afghan conflicts: that the violence is partly bankrolled by rich, conservative donors across the Arabian Sea whose governments do little to stop them.

The problem is particularly acute in Saudi Arabia, where militants soliciting funds slip into the country disguised as holy pilgrims, set up front companies to launder funds and receive money from government-sanctioned charities.

I also find it astounding that out of 100 self-identifying American Christians, only 30 actually believe that their religion is objectively true.

That's an argument as to why Islam is dangerous and not Christianity. In most Islamic countries, even suggesting the Religion is not 100% true will get you killed.

Lashkar_i_Trumpi says

I 100% agree, at least in the short term. At some point, I offered it up as proof that most self-identifying American Christians weren't 'true Christians,' but that was somewhat tongue in cheek (in case anyone is reading things a little too literally). I believe that Christianity has been changed to conform to secular society, which is something I'm happy for.

Besides being a pain in the ass, though, Christianity presents two threats to Americans. In the short term, the religion influences politics, and the distrust of scientists among the religious is a big problem, although it has been tremendously diminished by the changes in the various churches. In the long term, Christianity represents a danger of making a comeback and pushing the west back into some dark ages. By long term, I mean as a response to some disaster or something. It's not something for an individual to worry about.

That's not to say that I don't think Islam presents it's own set of problems in the US.

I miss the days where Islam was the primary topic. While Islam continues to spread terror and strife throughout the world, the events of 2020 and beyond have revealed that our own government funded the creation of a virus that was weaponized to disrupt the world, then unleashed inhuman restrictions, lockdowns and mandates, and is also goading a war in Eastern Europe. So the real enemy has been revealed.
259   RC2006   2022 Apr 3, 8:09am  

I won't defend islam. On the other hand I don't blame Arabs completely for how radicalized many have become. Look how they have been treated by the British, Zionists, and after WW2 the US. Jews stole land. Average age in Palestine is like 14yo. It's so bad groups have become death cults with suicide bombing there.

In Germany it is illegal to criticize Islam.

This could be a sign of west's weakness or decline. Whereas China is able to "reeducate" Muslims and feeding pork stuff like that and send batches to slaughterhouse on regular basis who follow Islam and disconnect from the world. China is winning and doing a good job to make the world good place on that front.

“By declaring our Prophet infallible and not permitting ourselves to question him, we Muslims have set up a static tyranny. The Prophet Muhammad attempted to legislate every aspect of life. By adhering to his rules of what is permitted and what is forbidden, we Muslims suppressed the freedom to think for ourselves and to act as we chose. We froze the moral outlook of billions of people into the mind-set of the Arab desert in the seventh century". - Ayaan Hirsi Ali, Book titled Infidel

British Muslims must dismantle democracy. Muslims must live like a state within a state until they are strong enough to take over. - Video of Imam of Green Lane Mosque, UK
264   gabbar   2022 Apr 8, 5:10am  

In Islam, there is no difference between the state and the religion. The religion is the state, the state is the religion. They hate. They hate our way of life. They hate our freedom. They hate our democracy. They hate the practice of every religion but their own. They don't just disagree. They hate. Not just Judaism. Not just Christianity. In various parts of the world today, Islamists are also waging terror war against Hindus, Buddhists, and all other "infidels." The imposition of Islam upon the entire world is not merely their goal. It is their religious duty. They are following the word of their holy book, the Koran, which is the guide to hatred of infidels, waging war, and victory through slaughter. - Brigitte Gabriel, Because They Hate: A Survivor of Islamic Terror Warns America

DOCTRINE OF ARMED JIHAD AS PER ISLAM

Muhammad told Muslims that world is in 3 parts. Muslims behaviour must be different in each of those three parts (Jihad e Asghar).

1st PART OF JIHAD: WHEN MUSLIMS ARE IN MINORITY AND MAJORITY IS UNITED (Dar al Aman): In this part Islam guides Muslims to be friends of Kafirs (non-Muslims) on face and within one must see them as enemy. Be united, increase population anyhow.

2nd PART OF JIHAD: WHEN MUSLIMS ARE IN MINORITY AND MAJORITY IS NOT UNITED (Dar al Harb): Here Islam says that kill whomsoever raise voice against you, Be united, increase population and keep on demanding for Sharia laws one after another. “This is where one will find moderate good Muslims and extreme Radical Jihadi Muslims mix. Means radical Jihadi Muslims hide within the cover of moderate good Muslims in a way grasshopper hides within grass for prey”. Here Moderate good Muslims (Movie stars or influential celebrities, authors, writers, painters, musicians etc) give cover to Radical Jihadi Muslims to keep the majority confused. Eg. In France a Painter was killed for painting 7 years old child bride of Prophet Muhammed with 53 years old Prophet Muhammed (Kill whomsoever raise voice against you) but when in India a famous Padma Bhushan award winner Muslim painter M.F. Hussain painted nude goddess on the lap of Jesus, nothing happened to him rather good moderate Muslims supported his actions with silence as usual. No good moderate Muslim ever condemn when tens of thousands of Yazidi females were taken as sex slaves and raped from morning to night by different radical Muslim Jihadis everyday only to be sold as cheap as $10 – $500 per girl in Muslim markets later. Muslims shout for Gaza everyday but pin drop silence on Yazidi females brutalised as sex slaves. Whenever and wherever Radical Jihadi Muslims do crime against non Muslims then no good moderate Muslim condemn it till the time it is super emergency to defend Islam. Islam permits Muslims to lie “Lie to defend or strengthen Islam”. Rather they support the act by silence or confuse the majority with one or two examples of good moderate Muslims. They generally say that “All Muslims are not bad and just due to handful of Radicals whole Islam can’t be blamed”.

3rd PART OF JIHAD: WHEN MUSLIMS BECOME MAJORITY (Dar al Islam): Kill non Muslim (Kafirs) or convert them. Take whatever they possess. Take Kafir women as sex slaves. Force them till they agree to accept Islam. It is halal (pious deed) and whomsoever will call it haram (sinful activity) is a sinner and must be slain. Forceful sex with sex slaves is not considered as rape as per Islam. “Sex with woman that your right hand possess is halal (pious)”. Non Muslim Kafir Sex slaves that are captured during Jihad comes under the heading “women that your right hand possess” as per Islam. Children born from sex slaves are newborn Jihadi Muslims who are given Radical Jihad training since childhood. This is where one will find only extreme Radical Jihadi Muslims and all the so called good moderate Muslims suddenly vanish into nowhere. Recent example of this is seen in Iraq where nearly all the young non muslim girls and women were taken as slaves by Radical Jihadis. Even 8- 10 years old kid girls were taken as sex slaves and got gang raped everyday from morning to night. Whole Yazidi religion civilization is destroyed to the extent it could be destroyed.

Didn't the Catholic church do something similar all over the Americas ? If my memory is correct, quite a few were killed as well for not being willing to convert

The west now generally believes that was bad behavior. The problem is that we're now enabling the same human rights abuses, but in a situation where we are setting ourselves up to be the victims.

Western religions were, indeed, barbaric a century ago. Then there was reformation. Women are no longer stoned to death in the public square for adultery. Nobody is burned at the stake for witchcraft. Yet we see gruesome executions in various Islamic countries in modern times. We see horrific punishments for "crimes" that westerners don't even believe to be crimes. At the very least, Islam is not compatible with the ideals and goals of the western world.

This almost never happened. The witchhunts in Massachusetts were actually fueled by teenage and young women, and it was the old dour Patriarchs who put a stop to the hysteria and remade the rules of evidence banning dreams and prophecies as grounds to start a trial. Almost all witchhunts, both European or African or Indian, are started by hysterical women, not men, trying to rid themselves of competitors in the form of unmarried women or widows who are sitting on nearby land that they'd like sold to their fiance/male dating pool.

We have a shitload more social problems than we did when Officer Friday was running things.

I don't believe anybody was stoned to death to any degree for adultery anywhere by the Puritans. Adultery is a sin and causes a chain of emotional reactions that often end up in violence; society ignores it without punishment at it's own peril.

The church changed. Permanent change (temporary change for deception is cool) is prohibited in Islam.
272   Patrick   2022 Apr 8, 2:54pm  

Also, we should look at the founders of the two religions:

Jesus didn't rob, rape, or kill anyone. In fact, he let himself be killed, according to the official Christian story.

Mohammed robbed caravans, raped the women after killing their male relatives, and slaughtered whole groups after their defeat. This is official Islamic history.

So Christians who do those things are being bad Christians, while Muslims who do those things are being good Muslims.

That's insurance for the raped. Tough times, no hofare back then nor police nor prisons.

It's better than being pressured to jumping on a fire pyre when your husband dies, or strangle random travelers in the name of Kali, both of which happened a mere century or so ago.

Or that being born in wealth or misery was because you were a good or bad person in a former life and deserve it.

Over the years, many have converted to Islam in the west and I would like to know why you think they would do such a thing. Examples include Jeffery Lang, Mohammad Ali, Cat Stevens, Hamza Yusuf, Lewis Arquette, etc. Etc. Also, were they worse people in their dealings after their conversion? Let not your blind hatred blind you and you see a day of regret where their is no turning back.

278   gabbar   2022 Apr 8, 6:16pm  

The basis of the obligation of jihad is the universality of the Muslim revelation. God’s words and God’s message is for all mankind; it is the duty of those who have accepted them to strive (jihada) unceasingly to convert or at least subjugate those who have not. This obligation is without limit of time or space. It must continue until the whole world has either accepted the Islamic faith or submitted to the power of the Islamic state. -- Islamic Jihad, A Legacy of Forced Conversion, Imperialism and Slavery by M. A. Khan, p. 53 (search for free pdf download available on internet)

No other religion in Europe makes so many demands. No immigrant group other than Muslims is so strongly connected with claims on the welfare state and crime. No group emphasizes their differences so strongly in public, especially through women’s clothing. In no other religion is the transition to violence, dictatorship and terrorism so fluid.--Thilo Sarrazin, Executive Board of the Deutsche Bundesbank
