"Europe will be Muslim in a dozen years,"
promises the Islamic Republic of Iran's Supreme Guide (dictator) who is racing
full-speed ahead to make as many bombs as possible with long-range missiles
capable of delivering their payload anywhere in the world.
This past Friday, Yunis al-Astal, a leading
Muslim cleric and Hamas member of the Palestinian parliament, declared on
Hamas' Al-Aqsa TV that "the capital of the Catholics, or the Crusader
capital," would soon be conquered by Islam and Rome become an advance post
for the Islamic conquests, which will spread through Europe in its entirety,
and then will turn to the two Americas."
The Islam hydra, with Saudi Arabia and the
oil-money bloated Emirs and Sheiks of the Persian Gulf leading the Sunni charge
from one side and the end-of-the-worlder bomb-seeking Shiite of the Islamic
Republic of Iran with its proxies of Hamas, Lebanon Hezbollah and the Sadrists
in Iraq closing from the other side will devour the free world.
Free people: are you listening?
Free people: do you care?
Free people: are you doing anything?
Disguised as religion, Islam has penetrated
the democracies with the aim of replacing civility and liberty with the
barbarism of theocracy and Sharia. Islam's multi-prong attack aims to destroy
all that liberty offers.
It is generally assumed that religion
addresses issues of importance to daily life as well as matters that transcend
it. Religion claims to exercise a civilizing influence by ordering the social
life and promoting spirituality, as well as advancing an array of human
virtues. Zoroaster, for instance, based his faith on the triad of goodly
thoughts, goodly speech and goodly deeds. Moses framed the fundamentals of his
faith in the Ten Commandments, and Jesus placed love at the core of his faith.
Yet, all is not well with religion.
Purveyors of some religions advocate and promote ideas and practices that are
harmful to the general well-being of mankind. It is imperative that a society
institutes measures that guard against any and all organizations and
ideologies, be they religious or otherwise that harms it.
As things stand now, our lives are governed
by numerous boards at all levels of government, business, and community. All
these boards are charged with the responsibility of looking after the welfare
of the people they serve. The Food and Drug Administration, for instance, must
pass on the safety and quality of the food we eat; the Aviation Safety Board
works to ensure safe flights; a local school board strives to create the
environment that best serves the education and safety needs of the pupils.
Every community and business of any size is served by boards.
There are, however, no oversight boards
that would check against things that contaminate the mind and present a clear
threat of unravelling our democracy's social compact as we know and cherish it.
Shouldn't these dangers to our beliefs and way of life be monitored and
combated or should they be given a pass to work their damage?
Presently, America is faced with a formidable
enemy in a Trojan horse called Islam. This imminent danger makes it imperative
to revisit the First Amendment of the U.S. Constitution and make the necessary
changes to legally defeat Islam's subversion of the democratic system.
Muslims in Western democracies, most of
them escapees of the misery of Islamic countries, exhibit such incredible gall
and audacity as to shamelessly demand that their benevolent hosts surrender
their liberty and legalize and adopt the Sharia in their societies.
The Muslims' presence in countries such as Canada, Great
Britain, the Netherlands
and Sweden
represents the tip of the sword of the Islamists protruding from the Trojan
horse.
Once Sharia is recognized to any extent, it
will reach out to rule, not only on matters that concern Muslims, but also
those that may involve a Muslim and non-Muslim. Under Sharia, a Muslim man
married to a non-Muslim woman is able to divorce the woman at will and
automatically have custody of the children.
America,
with a long history of protecting religious freedom, still clings to the "hands
off" practice of leaving alone any doctrine or practice billed as religion. A
thorny problem is in deciding what constitutes a religion and who is to make
that call. The dictionary supplies a sociologically useless definition for
religion: "The expression of man's belief in and reverence for a superhuman
power recognized as the creator and governor of the universe." Just about
anyone or any group under this definition can start a religion, and they indeed
do-and some do so at significant costs to others.
Islam was birthed by primitives of some
1400 years ago and over time invaded much of the world at the point of the
sword. Presently, Islamists, with their treasuries flush with petrodollars, are
in a great position to realize their perennial dream of bringing the world
under the rule of Muhammad's Ummah.
On the one hand, Pakistan is already a nuclear power
and the Islamic Republic of Iran aims to be one before very long. On the other
hand, Muslim governments and wealthy Sheikhs are funding Islamic schools,
centres and front organizations in the West to work from within at the
unravelling of the non-Islamic democratic systems. In a parallel attack, the
"Legal Islam" is exploiting every provision of the law in free societies to
promote Islam and silence its critics through expensive legal shenanigans.
Islam is incompatible with democracy and
subversive of the way of life that blesses this nation. It is imperative that
we fight Islamofascism with the same determination that we fought other enemies
of freedom such as Nazism, Fascism, and Communism. It is, therefore, imperative
that the Constitution be revisited in such a manner that it no longer grants a
pass to any cult simply calling itself a religion.
Bluntly speaking, no one can be a faithful
Muslim and an American at the same time. As more and more Muslims arrive in
non-Islamic lands, as they reproduce with great fecundity, as they convert the
disenchanted and minorities, and as petrodollar-flush Muslims and Muslim
treasuries supply generous funds, Muslims gather more power to undermine the
democratic rule.
The hydra of Islam is lashing out by its
jihadists, sophisticated and well-funded lawyers, terrorist groups, and terror-sponsoring
governments who have the bomb and those that are racing non-stop to acquire the
ultimate weapon. There is no time to waste. Steadfastly confronting Islam is
the only way to defeat a fanatical enemy who does not believe in negotiation or
compromise. For Islam, it is winner take all. And the way that permissive,
oblivious, and well-meaning free societies are reacting does not bode well for
liberty.
Islam must be recognized for what it is: a
Trojan horse carrying in its belly what will assuredly slaughter all who stand
everything that is precious to free people
