Islam Featured

Peace be upon the least deserving; and how he was created

Limiting the damage of all critical exposures of their prophet is a battle they can only lose. The ferocity of the Charlie Hebdo massacre attests to the damage the Muslim psyche suffered in the ridicule of Muhammad and the depth of Muslim frustration at the relentless torrent of “lies”.

Jihad Featured

"And the Gentiles shall come to thy light, and kings to the brightness of thy rising"

Thus will the buffer zone of protectorates stretch from the Saudi border to the Mediterranean and set up a symbiosis between the Jews, a powerful Middle Eastern minority, and the weak Middle Eastern minorities close-in around her, bringing the mediaeval castle analogy into the 21st century.

Turn them into teenage Shari'a enforcers: jihad's generational wedge, Part 4

The "straight path" to Islam is Shari'a. Most Muslims demand Shari'a because they are supposed to demand Shari'a, but they have no idea what they are demanding because lay Muslims are not supposed to know Shari'a. Such knowledge is the preserve of the "scholars".

Instil Muslim supremacism: jihad's generational wedge, Part 3

Differentiation from non-Muslims is necessary, but not sufficient. The Muslim must know, with every fibre of his being, that he is a higher order of creation than the kafir, and that the boundary between himself as human, and the animals, lies more properly between himself and the kafir.

Totalitarianism Featured

Comparing Islam and Nazism: some common misconceptions

The horrors perpetrated by the Nazis were concealed from the wider Nazi population for very good reason: they were not cruel enough to stomach it, despite their rabid anti-Semitism. This is why comparing Hamas to the Nazis makes no sense at all.

Fourth of July Featured

4 July in the Land of the Free, the Mother of Parliaments and the Only Democracy in the ME, Part 4

7 October defines our lifetimes. We were alive when it happened. Our children and grandchildren are fully entitled to interrogate us about were we stood on this matter, even whether we were complicit.

Democracy Featured

4 July in the Land of the Free, the Mother of Parliaments and the Only Democracy in the ME, Part 2

For the people who will now be given free rein on British streets, killing is quite the norm. For them, it is only a matter of whether or not Shari'a permits it. In Shari'a, there is no concept of rape. Wherever Islam advances, it is always the women who become the prey.

Propaganda Featured

Is it Islamophobic to call out Ed Husain for his stance on "Islamophobia"? Part 2

Ed Husain does not see that "Islamophobia" is a club with which Muslims, the woke, and communists, together, have been bludgeoning the West into letting Muslims dismantle civilisation. Or perhaps he does.

Muslims Featured

When Muslims throw themselves under the bus to protect Islam

"My slave approaches Me with nothing more beloved to Me than what I have made obligatory for him, and My slave keeps drawing nearer to Me with voluntary works until I love him."

Debate Featured

Muslims must not debate, will not debate, cannot debate. Part 3

Most instructive about Muslim denials of Muhammad’s paedophilia is how they confine their denials and obfuscations to sources that can be endlessly argued over without ever reaching an irrefutable conclusion. Yet Muslims have been completely silent about Shari’a, the law of Muhammad.

Propaganda Featured

Muslims must not debate, will not debate, cannot debate. Part 2

Dr Qadhi well knows that Islam and Shari'a are indefensible and is careful to avoid debates with kafir experts. Yasir Qadhi came under fire from the da'wah gangs for having destroyed the scam of the perfect preservation of the Qur'an, making it very difficult for them to lie to the gullible kufaar.

Da'wah Featured

Muslims must not debate, will not debate, cannot debate. Part 1

When a Muslim agrees to “debate” a non-Muslim, all he is doing is announcing to the ummah that they will see Muslim domination restored. The whole family can enjoy a kafir being humiliated. It is not quite as entertaining as watching jizya being extracted from dhimmis, but it will do for now.

Apostasy Featured

Had Orwell but known Islam. Part 5

The dhimmi is commanded to put his soul, good fortune and desires to death. Above all he should kill the love of life, leadership and honour. The dhimmi is to invert the longings of his soul, he is to load it down more heavily than it can bear until it is completely submissive.

Apostasy Featured

Had Orwell but known Islam. Part 4

Doubt is the undoing of Islam, and the antidote to doubt is simple and obvious: remain a Muslim of strong faith. This means to never doubt, remain primitive and simplistic in thought, remain ignorant, and, above all, never trust your own mind.

Apostasy Featured

Had Orwell but known Islam. Part 3

The simple believer must cling to the meagre faith that has been ordained for his inadequate station, grateful for the little he has been favoured with. At the end of the day, the closest thing to a guarantee that a lay Muslim has of reaching Paradise, is to kill and be killed in the cause of Allah.

Apostasy Featured

Every single Muslim is responsible. Part 4

While the relationship between Islam and the kufaar expands Islam, the relationship between the scholars and lay Muslims sustains Islam. The implication of the popular rejection of the relationship that sustains Islam is huge, for it is existential.

Da'wah Featured

The worst of non-Muslims convert to Islam, the best of Muslims leave Islam. Part 3

A gap has appeared between loyalty and truth, making them two different things in the mind of this sheikh, as well as in the minds of his Western Muslim congregation. Whether the sheikh realises it or not, this is how the journey out of Islam begins.

Jihad Featured

Give the Qur'an to Jews!

The bizarre situation in which Muslims are welcomed as citizens of Israel, but non-Halakhic Jews are seen as a threat to the state, is simply storing up trouble that can still easily be avoided.

Jihad Featured

"Enemy POWs"

This IDF Colonel obviously has no intention of wiping out Hamas, even after its killing “hundreds and hundreds,” because, at least, we hope, some Jews will survive. In that case, forgive me for asking, but what then, was the problem with the Holocaust?

Israel Featured

Orwell, Jabotinsky, Fascism and Islam - Part 4

The Arab Riots focussed Jabotinsky's attention on the practical urgency of saving European Jews from being murdered and securing for them their national home. The Helsingfors Programme was immediately to hand. If it was good enough to understand Russia, it was good enough to understand Palestine

"Islam is not a religion," Answer to Lloyd de Jongh - Part 4

It might offend Lloyd de Jongh to learn that for Islam, his religion is not important enough to warrant "correcting" its errors.

"Islam is not a religion," Answer to Lloyd de Jongh - Part 3

"You shouldn’t be in the totalitarianism business if you can't exploit a ready-made reservoir of credulity and servility that’s as big as that." —Christopher Hitchens.

Words, propaganda and head of a newborn babe, Part 2

Propaganda is truth presented in such a way as to achieve a particular effect on the one exposed to it, whether the claim is believed or not is unimportant, therefore whether it is true or not is unimportant. This is exactly why Muslims lie so much.

Words, propaganda and head of a newborn babe, Part 1

It is possible that this was not a crime, but it was most certainly not a "botched surgery," as some are so anxious to declare.

Shari'a

Shari’a, unseen in plain sight — a commentary. Part 3: Jihad

“Able to perform it” does not only mean to wield a weapon and kill non-Muslims. It also means to assist those who wield weapons and kill non-Muslims: by giving them money, food, shelter, transport, documents, sons, pointing out the houses, cars or work places of non-Muslims earmarked for killing…
