In a National Geographic article on Persia [1] there is a remarkable quote: “Before they (Islam) came, we (Persia) were a great and civilized power.” …Echoing commonly stated, though disputed, lore…. “They burned our books and raped our women, and we couldn’t speak Farsi (the Persian language) in public or they took our tongues.”
Notice the hedging of bets with the “commonly stated, though disputed lore”. It is conventional wisdom, but it may not be true. There are different ways to verify whether or not Islam burned books and raped the Persian women, but one way to verify is with what police call, modus operandi, MO, method of operation. It is used in law enforcement to describe a criminal’s habitual patterns and style of committing crimes. MO is common sense. Criminals, like everybody else, do what is familiar and works.
But MO is usually applied to a person. Islam’s habitual patterns are preserved in its doctrine. The first great principle of Islam is that non-Muslims are kafirs. A kafir is not just an unbeliever in Mohammed’s prophecy but a kafir has a special place in Islam and that place is all bad. Islam has dualistic ethics for the kafir. A Muslim is a brother to another Muslim, but kafirs can be insulted, robbed, murdered and tortured.
Kafir women can be raped in jihad. There are three different verses in the Koran that relate to having sex with your slaves:
Koran 70:22 Not the devout, who pray constantly and whose wealth has a fixed portion set aside for beggars and the destitute, and those who believe in the Judgment Day, and those who fear their Lord’s punishment-because no one is safe from their Lord’s punishment-and who control their sexual desires, except with their wives or slave-girls, with them there is no blame; but whoever indulges their lust beyond this are transgressors), and who keep their trusts and promises, and who tell the truth, and who are attentive to their prayers. These will live with honors in Gardens.
This is an interesting verse. It is an ethical list of behaviors: pray, give charity to the poor, truth telling and having sex with your slave-girls. Another verse says that even married slave girls are to be used for sex.
What is a slave? A kafir who has been captured and who has no defenders. How long do you have to hold the captive until they can be considered good for sex? Well, the Hadith as an answer has for us.
Here we see that at first the jihadists were reluctant to have sex with the captive women because of their husbands being nearby. But the Koran established that it was not immoral for them to rape kafir women because they had husbands.
Abu Muslim 008, 3432
Mohammed sent an army to Autas and encountered the enemy and fought with them. Having overcome them and taken them captives, the Companions seemed to refrain from having intercourse with captive women because of their husbands being kafirs. Then Allah, Most High, sent down regarding that: “And women already married, except those whom your right hands possess (iv. 24)” (i. e. they were lawful for them when their menstrual period came to an end).
Ishaq 758 Dihya had asked Mohammed for Safiya, and when he chose her for himself Mohammed gave Safiya’s two cousins to Dihya in exchange. The women of Khaybar were distributed among the Muslims.
Ishaq 759 A man said, ‘Let me tell you what I heard the apostle say on the day of Khaybar. He got up among us and said: “It is not lawful for a Muslim to mingle his seed with another man’s [meaning to have sex with a pregnant woman among the captives], nor is it lawful for him to take her until he has made sure that she is in a state of cleanness [not having her period].
As long as the kafir woman was not pregnant or having her period, the Muslim can rape her. Of course, a kafir should not even see the Muslim woman, hence, the veil, but a Muslim can have sex with a captured kafir woman. This is as good an illustration of Islam’s dual ethics as any other.
The story of Islamic rape was repeated in Turkey, Eastern Europe, Egypt, Spain and Hindustan. It is going on in Africa today. Rape is the Islamic modus operandi, way of doing business.
What about the book burning? When Islam invaded Hindustan (India) the largest library in the world was at Nalanda, a Buddhist center of learning. It took days to burn the library.
After all, all kafir culture was jahiliya, ignorant and hated by Allah. Books, art and all kafir culture are despised by Allah. When Muslims destroy civilizations, they are doing a good moral work. The books destroyed in Persia and India were an affront to Islam.
The other part of cultural destruction is the elimination of languages. When Islam invaded Coptic Egypt, a kafir would have his tongue cut out for speaking Coptic in front of Islamic government officials. Today, Islam has declared war on the Berber language and culture in North Africa.
The power of jihad is its totality. Jihad goes far beyond the use of violence. It is the purpose of Islam to annihilate all kafir civilizations. This doctrine allows political Islam to be constant over time and continents. The MO of Islam is fixed by the Koran, Sira and Hadith.

I really loathe the term “war on terror”. Apply to that the typical western sensibilities and you have folks believing that the gravest threats from islam are wild eyed jihadists. They are actually the lesser of evils that parade about in the name of Islam. Islam itself, a theological and political system whose ultimate manifestation is theummah, is the enemy and political islam, - the soft jihad - has devastated more of the west than the media will ever acknowledge.
From The Midnight Sun….
It happened in Lebanon and it’s going to happen in a myriad of other places; the Muslims gain the numerical and then the political advantage and things start changing. Sarajevo is paying the price for the rise to power of a brutal, torturing, genocidal Muslim warlord thug.
[...]
The city has effectively been ethnically cleansed and is now 90 percent Muslim, obviously no longer friendly to non-Muslim residents.
In Australia, former immigration minister, Kevin Andrews, has been roasted alive for wanting to extend a welcome to Christian Iraqi refugees. And yet, the left hegemony has no problem at all with welcoming in huge hordes of Muslim immigrants. What’s the agenda here?
Meanwhile, 30,000 Iraqis are on their way to America, a figure to reach 60,000 in the next few years. Guess where to? Michigan (should we start calling it Mecca-ghan?). How many does it take to reach critical mass? Who would like to bet they aren’t Christian refugees from persecution?

Islam as a System
Islam is not a religion nor is it a cult. It is a complete system. Islam has religious, legal, political, economic and military components. The religious component is a beard for all the other components.
Islamization occurs when there are sufficient Muslims in a country to agitate for their so-called “religious rights.”
When politically correct and culturally diverse societies agree to “the reasonable” Muslim demands for their
“religious rights,” they also get the other components under the table. Here’s how it works (percentages source CIA: The World Fact Book (2007).
As long as the Muslim population remains around 1% of any given country they will be regarded as a peace-loving minority and not as a threat to anyone. In fact, they may be featured in articles and films, stereotyped for their colorful uniqueness:
United States — Muslim 1.0%
Australia — Muslim 1.5%
Canada — Muslim 1.9%
China — Muslim 1%-2%
Italy — Muslim 1.5%
Norway — Muslim 1.8%
At 2% and 3% they begin to proselytize from other ethnic minorities and disaffected groups with major recruiting from the jails and among street gangs:
Denmark — Muslim 2%
Germany — Muslim 3.7%
United Kingdom — Muslim 2.7%
Spain — Muslim 4%
Thailand — Muslim 4.6%
From 5% on they exercise an inordinate influence in proportion to their percentage of the population. They will push for the introduction of halal (clean by Islamic standards) food, thereby securing food preparation jobs for Muslims. They will increase pressure on supermarket chains to feature it on their shelves — along with threats for failure to comply.
France — Muslim 8%
Philippines — Muslim 5%
Sweden — Muslim 5%
Switzerland — Muslim 4.3%
The Netherlands — Muslim 5.5%
Trinidad & Tobago — Muslim 5.8%
At this point, they will work to get the ruling government to allow them to rule themselves under Sharia, the Islamic Law. The ultimate goal of Islam is not to convert the world but to establish Sharia law over the entire world.
When Muslims reach 10% of the population, they will increase lawlessness as a means of complaint about their conditions (Paris — car burnings, etc.). Any non-Muslim action that offends Islam will result in uprisings and threats (Amsterdam — Mohammed cartoons).
Guyana — Muslim 10%
India — Muslim 13.4%
Israel — Muslim 16%
Kenya — Muslim 10%
Russia — Muslim 10-15%
After reaching 20% expect hair-trigger rioting, jihad militia formations, sporadic killings and church and synagogue burning:
Ethiopia — Muslim 32.8%
At 40% you will find widespread massacres, chronic terror attacks and ongoing militia warfare:
Bosnia — Muslim 40%
Chad — Muslim 53.1%
Lebanon — Muslim 59.7%
From 60% you may expect unfettered persecution of non-believers and other religions, sporadic ethnic cleansing (genocide), use of Sharia Law as a weapon and Jizya, the tax placed on infidels:
Albania — Muslim 70%
Malaysia — Muslim 60.4%
Qatar — Muslim 77.5%
Sudan — Muslim 70%
After 80% expect State run ethnic cleansing and genocide:
Bangladesh — Muslim 83%
Egypt — Muslim 90%
Gaza — Muslim 98.7%
Indonesia — Muslim 86.1%
Iran — Muslim 98%
Iraq — Muslim 97%
Jordan — Muslim 92%
Morocco — Muslim 98.7%
Pakistan — Muslim 97%
Palestine — Muslim 99%
Syria — Muslim 90%
Tajikistan — Muslim 90%
Turkey — Muslim 99.8%
United Arab Emirates — Muslim 96%
100% will usher in the peace of “Dar-es-Salaam” — the Islamic House of Peace — there’s supposed to be peace because everybody is a Muslim:
Afghanistan — Muslim 100%
Saudi Arabia — Muslim 100%
Somalia — Muslim 100%
Yemen — Muslim 99.9%
Of course, that’s not the case. To satisfy their blood lust, Muslims then start killing each other for a variety of reasons.
“Before I was nine I had learned the basic canon of Arab life. It was me against my brother; me and my brother against our father; my family against my cousins and the clan; the clan against the tribe; and the tribe against the world and all of us against the infidel”. — Leon Uris, “The Haj”
It is good to remember that in many, many countries, such as France, the Muslim populations are centered around ghettos based on their ethnicity. Muslims do not integrate into the community at large. Therefore, they exercise more power than their national average would indicate.
Adapted from Dr. Peter Hammond’s book: Slavery, Terrorism and Islam: The Historical Roots and Contemporary Threat.
And Islamists are here with plans, lots and lots of plans…
THERE ARE DIFFERENT KINDS OF ISLAM
The differences in the different kinds of Islam are due to religion, not politics. Take the Sunni/Shia split, the largest division in Islam. Both Sunnis and Shias completely agree on how to treat kafirs and jihad. All Muslim subscribe to one of five schools of the Sharia and the Sharia’s position regarding kafirs and jihad is the nearly the same for all the schools.
The only big difference is whether to use violent jihad or peaceful jihad against the kafirs.
HADITH—SOME OF THOSE AREN’T REAL
If you quote a hadith to a Muslim and they don’t like it, they will say, “Well, some of those hadiths are not acceptable (or true or some other disclaimer).” And that is true. Actually, when a Muslim says that, they are practicing taqiyya, sacred deception and duality. If it is a hadith, then a Muslim cannot be denied the right to follow it. It is Sunna.
The hadiths from Bukhari and Muslim are the creme de la creme of hadiths. When Bukhari made his collection, he threw out 99% of those he found. Those 99% are the unsure ones, the other 1% which are used here are authoritative.
THE MYTH OF THE ARABS, ABRAHAM AND ISHMAEL
The core of the myth is told in the Koran about how Adam built the Kabah at Mecca. It was the first house of worship. Then Abraham brought Ishmael to Mecca, prepared to perform the sacrifice demanded by God. Ishmael was left in Mecca with his mother, Hagar.
Once you know something about Islam and try to talk to others, you may find yourself in a debate. Here are some of the “standards”.
CAN YOU READ ARABIC?
Everyone from Muslims to atheists uses this. The implication is that Arabic is a unique language that can’t be translated and therefore, how could you know what you are talking about? First, the Koran claims to be a universal message for all humanity for all times. If the message is universal, then it must be able to be understood by all. If the message cannot be understood by everybody, then by definition it is not universal. So, which is it?
Another thing to consider is that over half of the Koran is about kafirs and politics. Do you really think that a political message about a kafir cannot be understood by the kafir? If so, what is that message that cannot be understood?
It must be made clear which Arabic is being spoken about. The Arabic of the Koran is classical Arabic which is about as similar to modern Arabic as the English of Chaucer and Beowulf is similar to modern English. Said in another way, not even a modern Arab can read classical Arabic. It is estimated that fewer than a thousand scholars who read classical Arabic can compose a paragraph on a random topic.
And what about the nearly billion Muslims who don’t even understand modern Arabic? If it is necessary to understand classical Arabic to understand what the Koran is about, then how can those billion non-Arabic-speaking Muslims understand the Koran? And if they cannot understand the Koran how can they be Muslims? »» Debating Islam With Muslims and Dhimmis
Listen to this extremely sobering video very carefully, then go to Scarlett Crusader where the links supporting the assertions and facts are listed. Or go to any of the sites that I have listed under the category “Islam Kills…” in the sidebar to your right.
As the bombastic Barack Hussein Obama prattles on about Christians, Jews and muslims uniting, suggesting that there be no walls between us on his happy little planet, islam, a disease that rots and devours the very flesh of freedom, progresses with the insatiable fervor of a full blown cancer in every country that has allowed a muslim majority to grow.
And that is what the very dangerous Obama would continue to facilitate. Hell, he will accelerate it. After all, he has stated that the islamic call to prayer is the sweetest sound he has ever known. It doesn’t take much research to conclude that Obama is far more an enemy to Christians and Jews than he is an enemy of islam. Just as he is an enemy to all that America has stood for. He is a trojan horse, of that I have no doubt.
No Obama, I want walls, very high walls between me and my enemies. And I want advanced weaponry mounted on them. I want a wall between the slavery of of islam and socialism and the freedom and prosperity of America. Barack Obama’s European tour has only demonstrated how utterly imperative it is that he is soundly defeated. Erased. Shoved down the memory hole. Forever.
The many points where Islam and other totalitarians systems are in agreement are painfully obvious when one compares their respective goals and strategies.
Back in 2003 I posted on Dr. Anis Shorrosh’s Twenty-Year Plan: Islam Targets America, challenging readers to find examples in the US that stand as credible evidence that many of the strategies and objectives listed are becoming a reality.
Well, here is another challenge. Reproduced below the fold you will find the goals of communism in America from Cleon Skousen’s “The Naked Communist”, entered into the Congressional Record in 1963. See how many objectives on the list have either already been achieved, or will be should Obama or Hillary get in.
The world thought communism had heard its death knell in 1987…but, slyly, the evil of communism did not fully die.
It exists today in the form of socialism. The 45 communist goals read into the Congressional Record in 1963 clearly show its relationship to socialism, and reveal its continuing goal to take over America. (Google “45 communist goals”)
[...]
Amid all the chaos, early in that year of 1963, history left a clue for the future. Florida Congressman Albert Herlong, Jr….read the 45 communist goals that were contained in Cleon Skousen’s “The Naked Communist” into the Congressional Record. Through those prescient actions all Americans are reminded of a never fully abandoned plot. Communism turned socialism still intends to take over America incrementally.
Communism is antithetical to capitalism. In Marxian theory, socialism is the stage between the two.
Socialism happens in America when government veers from its constitutionally granted powers, and decides it can “redistribute.” It shifts the tax burden, designates some as “more equal” than others, manipulates media, denies some rights, and relinquishes other rights. These things have been happening incrementally for decades in America.
I say that Barrack Hussein Obama is what “…happens in America when government veers from its constitutionally granted powers, and decides it can “redistribute.” Reading the long term goals of communism in America is to understand that candidates like Barrack Hussein Obama or Hillary Clinton have been long in the making and a long time coming.
And so has Islam. The activist templates that are commonly employed in the implementation of this communist manifesto are those that “progressives” have long employed and those that CAIR and other Islamic front groups have adapted to their own purposes with great skill. Both agendas have the demise of America and the enslavement of her citizens as their ultimate objective.
Go ahead and read both the islamic and communist game plans, if you have the time, and start matching the various points and strategies with the ample evidence that we are witness to today testifying to the realization of many of those goals. After that, consider just what Barack Hussein Obama - a man who has overwhelming muslim support (as well as muslim kin), terrorist endorsements, radical left associations - a man rooted deeply in the theology of victinhood and oppression - ask yourself what exactly does he mean when he speaks of change.
If either Hillary or Obama are elected, no one can honestly say that we haven’t been warned.
Islam is a complete system that encompasses every aspect of life. It’s tentacles intrude in every imaginable way, dictating everything from personal hygeine, friendships, marraige, family life, personal hobbies.; all of it is controlled by the tenets of islam.
What most Americans can not seem to grasp is that Islam is a political beast as well. From hearth to government, Islam sacrifices the sovereign status of the individual in service to the ummah. Much like the socialist Obama, where the individual is expected to live for the greater good (gag me) in service to the state.
Islam is based upon the principles of dualism and submission. However, you don’t have to be a Muslim to invoke them. Obama has closely aligned himself with Rev. Wright’s “Black Liberation Theology”, BLT.
The very basis of BLT is dualism. God is seen as being purely dualistic; a political creature who will support blacks and hurt whites. It is not the division into two categories that makes for dualism. A study of high blood pressure differences between blacks and whites is not dualism. Dualism, instead, divides and creates ethical and social asymmetries. As an example, Islam divides all humans into Muslim and kafir and posits that Muslims should rule over kafirs and that kafirs can be treated as sub-human if it will advance Islam.
[...]
BLT holds that crime in the black neighborhoods is due to the CIA bringing in crack cocaine and the AIDS virus. Blacks are believed to have no responsibility. Blacks even temper criticism of rap hate-speech by saying that it the fault of the rich white record producers.
The parallel with Islam is exact. When Mohammed attacked the poor Meccan kafirs and killed them, it was the kafirs’ fault. They had opposed Islam and were guilty of the first offense. Any opposition to BLT is due to inherent bigotry on the part of the white critic, by definition. Therefore, the white man/kafir is due his fair share of abuse by the pious imam or BLT preacher.
Islam is always the victim. Being the victim is the perfect cover for crime and hate…
We have been so thoroughly betrayed by this current president who barely spits out the word islamofascist before retreating with the alacrity of a well trained dhimmi. Always the question posed is, “are we safe?” And simply because an act of “terror” has not visited this shore since 2001, the very false conclusion that we are thus, safe, is perpetuated. But we haven’t been safe for a very long time.
No, as of yet, there are no beheadings in America, though honor killings, genital mutilation, forced marriages are occurring with little comment from the media. There isn’t anything nearly as flagrant as the wholesale slaughter committed in Allah’s name in countries throughout the world. There are not, as of yet, muslim no-go zones in America as exist in England and France.
But as I write these words liberty lays bleeding. Freedom is in exile, seeking asylum, but fewer and fewer countries will grant her sanctuary. Thought police roam the corridors of “justice” and academia, vandalizing the constitution, rummaging through history, desecrating America with the graffiti of their revisionist lies.
It is critical that Americans come to understand political islam, and then see how it melds so seamlessly with the ideological matrix from which Barack Hussein Obama speaks. The excerpts above and below are from the site Political Islam, one that I ask you to post about and to email to all those who have an ear to hear.
Endless ink has been wasted on trying to answer the question of what is Islam? Is Islam the religion of peace? Or is the true Islam a radical ideology? Is a moderate Muslim the real Muslim?
This reminds a scientist of the old arguments about light. Is light a particle or is light a wave? The arguments went back and forth. Quantum mechanics gave us the answer. Light is dualistic; it is both a particle and a wave. It depends upon the circumstances as to which quality manifests. Islam functions in the same manner.
Our first clue about the dualism is in the Koran, which is actually two books, the Koran of Mecca (early) and the Koran of Medina (later). The insight into the logic of the Koran comes from the large numbers of contradictions in it. On the surface, Islam resolves these contradictions by resorting to “abrogation”. This means that the verse written later supersedes the earlier verse. But in fact, since the Koran is considered by Muslims to be the perfect word of Allah, both verses are sacred and true. The later verse is “better,” but the earlier verse cannot be wrong since Allah is perfect. This is the foundation of dualism. Both verses are “right.” Both sides of the contradiction are true in dualistic logic. The circumstances govern which verse is used.
For example: (Koran of Mecca) 73:10: Listen to what they [unbelievers] say with patience, and leave them with dignity.
From tolerance we move to the ultimate intolerance, not even the Lord of the Universe can stand the unbelievers:
(Koran of Medina) 8:12: Then your Lord spoke to His angels and said, “I will be with you. Give strength to the believers. I will send terror into the unbelievers’ hearts, cut off their heads and even the tips of their fingers!”
All of Western logic is based upon the law of contradiction—if two things contradict, then at least one of them is false. But Islamic logic is dualistic; two things can contradict each other and both are true.
No dualistic system may be measured by one answer. This is the reason that the arguments about what constitutes the “real” Islam go on and on and are never resolved. A single right answer does not exist.
It matters little if Barack Hussein Obama attended a madrassa or not. The politics of the the left and it’s stepchild, black liberation theology, resonate on a core, essential level with Islam.
European Muslims are presently exercising the political and cultural muscle that their American counterparts are working towards. A democrat/socialist in the White House will accelerate their progress. Obama in the White House will guarantee it.
Reproduced in it’s entirety from Political Islam, a publication that I strongly recommend that you subscribe to.
Barack Obama has closely aligned himself with Reverend Jeremiah Wright and Black Liberation Theology (BLT). When viewed from the Christian point-of-view, BLT is a strange creed, but when seen from the standpoint of Islam, there is a very strong parallel.
Islam and BLT are theologies that have a political goal of making all politics submit to their demands. Submission is the political goal.
Islam and BLT are both based upon the principle of duality. The Koran divides up humanity into Muslims and the kafirs (unbelievers). BLT has a god that divides humanity into blacks and whites. But the duality is not the division, but a complete separation that is ethical, political, cultural and religious. The believer has nothing in common with the kafir/white. Allah loves the Muslim and a black god loves the blacks.
Allah preaches violence against the kafirs and helps Muslims to kill them. The Koran says that cruelty and hatred of the kafir is a sacred duty for Muslims.
BLT does not preach violence against whites, but excuses and justifies it. BLT also justifies black crime as a legal way for oppressed blacks to strike back at the white oppressors. It sees a rapist or killer of whites as a revolutionary committing a legitimate act of a just war. Here we have a quote from James Cone, the father of BLT:
“What we need is the divine love as expressed in black power, which is the power of blacks to destroy their oppressors, here and now, by any and all means at their disposal” [James Cone, A Black Theology of Liberation, p. 70]
Neither Islam nor BLT ever acknowledges the suffering of its enemies. Jihad has killed over 270 million kafirs over the last 1400 years, but there has never been any acknowledgment of the destruction of kafirs. In Mohammed’s official biography, the Sira, there are hundreds of pages devoted to jihad against the kafirs. There is not one time when Mohammed expressed remorse about the beheading, torturing, killing, raping and robbery of the kafirs. Indeed, there are many occasions when he laughed at the kafirs’ suffering.
The duality of total separateness from the kafir/white creates an ethical position. Ethics become dualistic. The kafir/white is treated differently from the “brother/sister”. Since Allah/black God hates and plots against kafirs/whites there is no empathy with the victims of the aggression. There is no remorse and, therefore, there is never an apology. There is nothing to apologize for. Allah/black God wanted them dead, so there is no need to weep.
I fear the day will too soon arrive when Keith Ellison (the Muslim Trojan horse currently posing serving as a congressman from the lamentable state of Minnesota) feels sufficiently confident that this nation is so subsumed by dhimmitude that he will feel free to express himself as candidly as Raleb Majadle, the first Arab minister in Israel.
“I will say my opinion. Before I am a government minister I am first and foremost a person and a citizen and a Muslim.
[...]
Eldad interrupted him repeatedly, reminding him that he had sworn allegiance to the State of Israel and its laws, but Majadle insisted: “I hereby inform you, esteemed MK Eldad, that I may be a minister for one, two or ten years but I was born a Muslim, and a Muslim I shall die. I respect Israeli law… but if there is a contradiction between the law and my deep faith as a Muslim, I announce that I will know what to choose.”
This is the true belief of every silver tongued Islamic politician who uses the democratic process to subvert the nation that they falsely swear to support. Keith Ellison has no allegiance to this nation. He, like Majadle, “will know what to choose“, and it will not be America.
Ellison’s oath of office is as good as the Koran it was sworn on, and far as I have observed, the Koran serves best as toilet paper and Congressman Keith Ellison serves only the umma.
