The threat to national security is real

Given the controversy introduced by Donald Trump on the Muslim question, what should be done? The threat to our national security is real.

First, in the interest of national security, any Muslim immigrant should swear absolute dedication to the Constitution and laws of the United States of America and swear they will not follow the Koran’s teaching on the war against nonbelievers.

Second, as applied to all Muslim citizens of the USA, the fact must be clearly established that Sharia Islamic law is subordinated to the Constitution and laws of the United States where religious intolerance is condemned and the free practice of religious diversity is condoned.

“Political correctness” obscures the truth regarding the Muslim question.

This avoids the real issue of Islam’s fundamental belligerency against nonbelievers — Christians, Jews, and secularist, etc. For Muslims, the spiritual possession and religious dedication is deep and profound promising heavenly rewards for destroying nonbelievers by fanatical Imams and Mullahs of the Islamic faith.

As a highly regarded Minister has proclaimed, who has a Christian ministry among Muslims in Albania: “Like many so called Christians who avoid the true teachings of Christ, some Muslims turn their cheek on the Muslim teachings.”

But the difference here is the fact that the Islam fanatic’s call to kill and murder nonbelievers is endowed in their scripture — the Islamic Koran – where it is not in the Christian Bible.

Consequently, under the guidance of a fanatical Mullah, an Islamic mosque’s member may yield to the call to massacre innocent nonbelievers. Mullah inspired suicide bombers and assassins — some who have been women — have done this in Israel, in many places in the Mideast, and it has occurred here in the United States. As recently exemplified in the San Bernardino massacre. Each suicide bomber and assassin are promised their reward in paradise for their resolve.

To call a Muslim radicalized is to ignore the religious propensity of Islam, as founded in the sacred Koran and Sharia Islamic law, that unambiguously specifies a war against infidels — one who does not believe in the teachings in the Koran.

“Fight and kill the disbelievers wherever you find them, and seize them, Beleaguer them and lie in wait for them in every stratagem of war…” (Qur’an 9:5)

A Muslim — whether described as being moderate or radical — must reject this teaching to be considered peaceful and loving by Judeo/Christian and secular standards.

Here is the existential reality of the Islamic faith: A true Muslim led by a fanatical Mullah is susceptible to the teaching of the Koran to “fight and kill disbelievers.” Muslims following these teaching are not “radicalized,” they are strict followers adhering to their religious teachings.

In conclusion, it is not an act of Islamophobia to cite the horrific deeds against Israel, in the Mideast and here in the United States — 9/11, etc and now in San Bernardino.

While professing to be loving and peaceful — Muslims are caught in the dual lie of first denying Mohammad’s instruction to kill nonbelievers while, second, coincidentally lying to non Muslims professing “love and peace” to those they wish to appease while being religiously justified to destroy them. For they are caught in a fatal contradiction. This is the inherent hypocrisy and false claim of the prevalent Islamic religion today.

To understand the world’s transgressions is to understand the New World Order story behind the pyramid on the back of any dollar bill.


Let’s see … nut case shoots up Planned Parenthood … nut cases shoot up San Berdu … I don’t see a lot of difference.


But I am concerned that where ever Islamic societies border non-Islamic ones there seems to be problems. Nigeria, Darfur, Ethiopia, Kenya, India, Burma, Thailand, Bali, East Timor, Philippines, China’s Ughur province and back across Europe, Armenia, Caucasus, Balkans, Israel, Cyprus, the Aegean Sea. And then the internal strife amongst Shia, Sunni … Is there a pattern here?


Muslims need to evaluate their faith … if it can change and adapt to the 21st century … GREAT!


If the faith cannot … dump it and convert to another.


The Philippines and Cyprus are islands .


What ….they have Islamic fish ?


And India is primarily Hindu, Sihk, and Buddhist.


1) Cyprus is divided into a Greek section and a Turkish section by a Christian Muslim civil war 1974.

2) The Moro Conflict is an ongoing insurgency in Mindanao. In 1969, political tensions and open hostilities developed between the Government of the Philippines and Moro Muslim rebel groups. The Moro Insurgency was triggered by the Jabidah massacre, which saw the killing of 60 Filipino Muslim commandos on a planned operation to reclaim the eastern part of the Malaysian state of Sabah. In response, the University of the Philippines professor Nur Misuari established the Moro National Liberation Front (MNLF), an armed insurgent group that was committed to establishing an independent Mindanao. Over the successive years, the MNLF splintered into several different groups including the Moro Islamic Liberation Front (MILF), which wanted to establish an Islamic state within the Philippines. The Moro Insurgency is rooted in a long history of resistance by the Bangsamoro people against foreign rule, dating back to the American annexation of the Philippines in 1899. Since then, Moro resistance has persisted against the Philippines central government in Manila. Casualty statistics vary for the conflict; however, the conservative estimates of the Uppsala Conflict Data Program indicate that at least 6,015 people were killed in armed conflict between the Government of Philippines and ASG, BIFM, MILF, and MNLF factions between 1989 and 2012.

3) The India subcontinent had the violent partition of 1947, three wars between India and Pakistan excluding the partition (1965, 1971, 1999), and ongoing contest over Jammu and Kashmir.


What I am saying is that there is an ideological pattern, and Muslims should review and reconsider certain elements of their faith. I am not being negative on the value of the entire faith, but rather question if certain portions are dated … similar to elements of Christianity with regards to homosexuality, gay marriage and a woman’s right to choose.


India has the largest Muslim population in the world I believe, and a long history of Muslim culture and rule.


Almost all radical Islamism is rooted in Wahhabism, which is a relatively rare interpretation created in Saudi Arabia as a means of pushing a military agenda.

The tv networks/media push a pr narrative that is intended to maximize fear and hatred so that the electorate doesn’t interfere with a particular agenda.


O.k. fair enough and what are the number of Muslim terrorist vs Christian? And please don’t go back to the dark ages to make an argument. I’m talking NOW!!


These guys are playing with fire when they start murdering a heavily armed populace like we have hear in the U S. If law enforcement demonstrates an inability to handle the situation the citizens will protect themselves as necessary.


“Heavily armed” for now…


Statements from the Quran:


• 3:151 “We shall cast terror into the hearts of those who disbelieve.”

4:74 “Fight in the way of Allah who sell the life of this world for the other. Whoso fighteth in the way of Allah, be he slain or be he victorious, on him We shall bestow a vast reward.”


• 4:76 “Those who believe do battle for the cause of Allah; and those who disbelieve do battle for the cause of idols. So fight the minions of the devil.”


• 4:91 “Take them and kill them wherever ye find them. Against such We have given you clear warrant.”


• 8:12 “I will throw fear into the hearts of those who disbelieve. Then smite the necks and smite of them each finger.”


• 21:97 “Behold them, staring wide (in terror), the eyes of those who disbelieve!”


• 33:35-36 “Allah repulsed the disbelievers. … He brought those of the People of the Scripture who supported them down from their strongholds, and cast panic into their hearts. Some ye slew, and ye made captive some.


• 59:2 “He it is Who hath caused those of the People of the Scripture who disbelieved to go forth from their homes unto the first exile. Ye deemed not that they would go forth, while they deemed that their strongholds would protect them from Allah. But Allah reached them from a place whereof they recked not, and cast terror in their hearts so that they ruined their houses with their own hands and the hands of the believers. So learn a lesson, O ye who have eyes!”


• 59:13 “Ye are more awful as a fear in their bosoms than Allah.


The Quran contains at least 109 verses that call Muslims to war with nonbelievers for the sake of Islamic rule. Some are quite graphic, with commands to chop off heads and fingers and kill infidels wherever they may be hiding. Muslims who do not join the fight are called ‘hypocrites’ and warned that Allah will send them to Hell if they do not join the slaughter.


Unlike nearly all of the Old Testament verses of violence, the verses of violence in the Quran are mostly open-ended, meaning that they are not restrained by the historical context of the surrounding text. They are part of the eternal, unchanging word of Allah, and just as relevant or subjective as anything else in the Quran.


Most of today’s Muslims exercise a personal choice to interpret their holy book’s many calls to violence according to what their own moral preconceptions find justificable. Apologists cater to their preferences with tenuous arguments that gloss over historical fact and generally do not stand up to scrutiny. Still, it is important to note that the problem is not bad people, but bad ideology.


Unfortunately, there are very few verses of tolerance and peace to abrogate or even balance out the many that call for nonbelievers to be fought and subdued until they either accept humiliation, convert to Islam, or are killed. Muhammad’s own martial legacy – and that of his companions – along with the remarkable stress on violence found in the Quran have produced a trail of blood and tears across world history.

Oh, what racist poo-throwing.


It was exactly people like the author that crucified that revolutionary, socialist, hippie 2,000 years ago.


The good news is that we in “the west” have thousands of years of battle tested civilizations. The Muslims are nothing new, we’ve seen this many times. We pulled so far ahead that we thought we did not need to worry about the rest of the world.


Christianity was every bit as violent as Islam, and it was well known in the ancient world the most violent “man” in the world was the Nordic man. I would not think anyone in Sweden today feels that way today.


We are much stronger than we think, but delusions and political sophistry might not help when the problem manifests as a husband and wife drop their kid off and lay siege to an area.


Allah has quite simply blessed this approach to civilization, and the Muslims can partake, but like all the other peoples of other lands, you have to lay down the old world once you enter into the new.
