Radical Fundamentalist Islam: Danger Ahead

The Koran is considered to be complete and perfect in every way by Islam for past 1400 years. Since it is perfect, it cannot be changed in any way. It cannot be updated, improved upon, or reformed. Radical fundamentalists use Koranic verses to justify violent jihad to garner converts or kill unbelievers (kafirs). The Koran 3:151 says "We will put terror into the hearts of the unbelievers;" on-going for 1400 years to now. They have been quite successful: during this time, roughly 270 million kafirs have been killed by jihad (120 million Africans, 60 million Christians, 80 million Hindus, & 10 million Buddhists). Be careful of wolves in sheep's clothing, and bland statements saying that Islam is a religion of peace.

A Brief Overview of Sharia Law

1. Islam is a complete political, cultural, legal, and religious system. Islam is believed by Muslims to be the word of Allah, and is, therefore, perfect and eternal. It cannot be changed.

2. The political goal of Islam is for every constitution and every government to be replaced by Sharia. It is simply a matter of time. Allah wills it so.

3. Sharia comes from the Islamic Trilogy (Koran, Sira, and the Hadith). The Trilogy is both a political theory and a complete, detailed code of law that covers contract law, banking, family law, insurance, criminal law, and foreign policy.

4. Jihad details are found in the Sira. Jihad is obligatory for everyone when non-Muslim forces (kafir forces) enter Muslim lands. Kafirs must be repelled by every possible means. It is permissible to kill kafirs and destroy their property and assets. Since all land is considered Islamic throughout the entire world, jihad against all non-Muslims in those lands is obligatory.

5. Whenever children or women are taken captive, they are to be enslaved. A slave-woman's previous marriage is immediately annulled (they may be used for sex).

6. Dhimmitude is a formal status of protection made with Jews and/or Christians under Islam. Such agreements are valid as long as the subjects follow the rules of Islam, and follow specific rules of submission for public behavior, dress, and worship. Subjects must dress in submissive clothing, defer to Muslims in public, never build a building higher than surrounding Muslim buildings, never display wine or pork, never ring church bells or display crosses, or build new churches. They must pay a heavy poll tax for this protection. They must not mention anything impermissible about Allah, the Prophet, or Islam.

7. Leaving Islam (becoming an apostate) is a capital sin. When a sane person leaves Islam he/she is to be killed. Killing an apostate is not a sin because they deserve to die.

8. A husband has all rights to his wife's body. A wife must let her husband have sex with her immediately when he asks her at home; and she can physically endure it. A husband may permit his wife to leave the house for religion, see her female friends, or go to town. A woman must not leave the city without her husband or member of her unmarriageable kin accompanying her. All other travel is unlawful. A husband may deny his wife the right to leave the home. If a wife gives a cold answer or does not submit to sex when asked, the husband can hit his wife if he believes it will bring her back to the correct path. A wife is not entitled to support from her husband when she doesn't obey him, even for a moment, or if she travels without his permission.

Mohammed's Fantasy of the Dominant Alpha Male

An interesting article that highlights why Mohammad had to be superior over every one else -- His "Dominant Alpha-Male" syndrome.

Mohammed's Fantasy of the Dominant Alpha Male

June 18, 2010
by Kenneth Roberts

Mohammed was the dominant alpha male in his society. Mohammed was the quintessential alpha male. His unlimited polygamy, his monopoly on the use of force to dominate others, his monopoly on divine revelation, his claim of special powers not given to others, such as superhuman eloquence (Sahih Bukhari 9,87,127), his claim of 20% of all the plunder stolen in raids…all expressed and reinforced his alpha-ness.

We see alpha male behavior throughout the animal kingdom, for instance, in a troop of baboons or a pride of lions. Everyone around the alpha male is subservient to him and exists only to satisfy his urges and to comply with his demands. Of course, the underlings in the group must constantly show the alpha male respect and 'honor', otherwise the alpha male will growl, bare his teeth and bite if necessary, even to the extent of killing to restore his honor. Political Islam works the same way. The Muslim response to disrespect towards Islam is one of the most visible signs of this alpha male instinct to defend 'honor' through violence.

The alpha male in Islam is under no obligation to give anything to or help the 'other' outside his immediate group-in any way, shape or form--but only to protect those within his group. The Golden Rule has no place in the animal kingdom, or in Islam. Violence is their mechanism of survival.

In Muslim society, the Muslim alpha male respects only another Muslim alpha male and only if he can demonstrate that he has everything under control; otherwise he will be despised. The non-Muslim is at the bottom of the hierarchy and is treated with the utmost contempt. Kafirs are dirty subhumans to a Muslim. The kafir is similar to an animal that has no right to graze the land or drink at the water-hole…an animal, whose only right is to be preyed upon for food. This is the meat of Islamic morals.

Jewish ethics are based on the Ten Commandments and the Golden Rule, but Mohammed brought a new theocracy based on the primacy of the alpha male. Allah substituted the Arabs for their Jewish cousins… not on the basis of ethics…but on the Arabs' ability to act like alpha males.

The Ten Commandments were tossed out and were replaced by Mohammed's 'alpha-ness'. Islamic Sharia law is based on the alpha-ness of Mohammed. An action is 'good', not because God said so on a table of stone, but because Mohammed did so…from stabbing his verbal critics, to raping war captives, to genocide, to plundering unarmed caravans.

Mohammed dispensed with the Golden Rule and most of the Ten Commandments, since they were incompatible with his opportunistic ethics…the survival of the fittest…the supremacism of 'the best of people' (i.e. the Arabs), whom Mohammed conscripted to usurp the Israelites, Persians and Romans as the new alphas on the world stage.

Mohammed's world is a theocratic dictatorship in which human behavior is motivated by the desire to dominate on the part of those who are allowed to, and fear on the part of those who are selected to be dominated…the dirty kafirs ('najis kufar' in Arabic).

Soul-searching is an alien concept in Mohammedan supremacism. In Mohammed's society, there is no need for self-evaluation or self-criticism, apart from asking whether the alpha male is getting his rightful share and his due respect. There is no need for any Muslim to evaluate his behavior beyond this point. The dominance of the Islamic male is proof of Allah's support for Islam, thus, the more domineering a Muslim is, the more Allah is seen to support him.

If a Muslim bows to the narcissism of Mohammed or to that of his Islamic head of state, he is ethical enough. Giving to 'others', without being forced to do so, is seen as a sign of weakness unfitting for the alpha male. What generally distinguishes the alpha male is his opportunism. Opportunism is the opposing principle to the Golden Rule. With no Golden Rule, Islam is intrinsically opportunistic.

A number of ancient rulers were notable alpha males: Julius Caesar, Hannibal, Nero and Genghis Khan. Mohammed clearly patterned himself on historic examples of pathological narcissism, particularly that of Alexander the Great. For some reason, Mohammed was enraptured by the legend of world-conquering Alexander the Great and claimed this vicious killer as a monotheist and even a proto-Muslim.

To the contrary, the historical Alexander was a confirmed polytheist and even claimed for himself the title of 'Son of Amon'…making Alexander the 'Son of God'…of Amon, the principle Egyptian god, 'Lord of truth, father of the gods, maker of men'. Amon-Ra was associated with alpha male dominance, as a woolly ram-headed deity with curved horns. Since rams were considered a symbol of virility, due to their rutting behavior, Amon also became thought of as a fertility deity.

The Koran is filled with ancient legends and stories plagiarized from a plethora of pagan, Jewish and Christian texts. Textual analysis has identified precisely what they were.

Mohammed's saga of the alpha male Alexander did not come from history…clearly, Mohammed did not get his information that way…but from 'legends'. Due to the discovery of 3rd century texts, we now know where Mohammed got his ideas about Alexander. A highly-romanticized Christian legend composed in the 3rd century A.D. in Alexandria implied that Alexander was a monotheist (far from the truth). However, coins and monuments of Alexander depicted him with ram's horns on his head.

'Dhul-Qarnain' ('the two-horned one') features prominently in the Koran. Mohammed's biographer Ibn Hishaq claimed, 'Dhul-Qarnain is Alexander the Greek, the king of Persia and Greece, or the king of the east and the west, for because of this he was called Dhul-Qarnain'.

It requires no Sherlock Holmes to see that Mohammed's persona was constructed from that of world-conqueror Alexander the Great, combined with that of Moses, conqueror of Canaan. Mohammed's intoxicating fantasy captured the romance, theocracy and military genius of both men and presented him (Mohammed) to the Arabs as the combination of all their alpha qualities rolled into one.

Apart from the story of Alexander, the Koran contains aggressive alpha imagery:

'We hurl the truth at falsehood and it knocks out its brains.' (K.21.18)

In the Islamic paradise, it is the most aggressive alpha males who receive the highest rewards. (cf. K. 9:111)

All in all, we require no message from an Arabian moon god to reveal alpha male behavior to us. Alpha behavior is well known in much of the animal kingdom, as well as in criminal enterprises…such as biker gangs…and in fascist politicians who impose their cult of personality on vulnerable populations.

Much of current Islamic rage takes place at the inchoate, psychological level of alpha male narcissism. Alpha behaviors such as honor-killings and cartoon riots defend the 'honor', misogyny and supremacism that Muslim males have a vested interest in maintaining.

Of course, Mohammed's supremacist model for society is incompatible with a pluralistic democracy based on non-violence, equality and tolerance in the public and personal spheres. The two models contradict one another.

Whether Mohammed's alpha male fantasy has the slightest chance of surviving in the Age of Aquarius, well, that's another story.

Oklahoma May Bar Sharia (Islamic) Law

Islamic Law in Oklahoma?

Vote to Bar Sharia May Be on Fall Ballot

According to David Gibson, Columnist, Oklahoma sure doesn't seem like the kind of place where the Islamic law code known as Sharia might take over. With just 30,000 Muslims out a population of nearly 3.7 million, and a whole wheat, corn-fed reputation that inspired the Rodgers and Hammerstein musical, Oklahoma is about as far from Saudi Arabia -- one Muslim country that follows a strict version of Sharia -- as you can get.

But legislators in the Sooner State figure you can never be too careful. Hence their push to put a question on November's ballot that would ask voters to make state courts rely on federal and state laws when deciding cases and forbid the courts from using international law or Sharia law when making rulings.

"Sharia law coming to the U.S. is a scary concept," state Sen. Anthony Sykes, a Republican who co-authored one proposal, dubbed the "Save Our State" amendment, told The Edmond Sun. "Hopefully the passage of this constitutional amendment will prevent it in Oklahoma."

The prospect seems pretty remote, but state lawmakers cited some countries, such asCanada and Great Britain, where courts are recognizing Islamic laws to settle disputes among Muslims, though the jurisdiction and scope of such laws is limited.

"It is a cancer upon the survivability of the U[nited] K[ingdom]," state Rep. Rex Duncan, primary author of State Question 755, the ballot initiative, told The Sun. "SQ 755 will constitute a pre-emptive strike against Sharia law coming to Oklahoma."

Other lawmakers spoke of a coming "onslaught" of Sharia cases, and suggested other states would follow Oklahoma's first-in-the-nation example.

But Islamic advocacy groups were decidedly less enthusiastic about the prospect of the ballot initiative, which is undergoing some editing by the state attorney general to make it comply with Oklahoma laws (the secular ones).

"This is just the flip side of the anti-Semitic coin," said Ibrahim Hooper, spokesman for the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR). Anti-Islam rhetoric is approaching "Nazi-like" levels, Hooper said.

Sharia law defines a Muslim's duties to God and to others, including social transactions and business, penal and family relationships. It is derived from numerous sources, but is not a single code of laws and is open to interpretation, though it is generally associated in the West with a draconian strictness.

Obama Appeases Muslim Countries -- is it Working?

Rick Santorum has written an interesting piece about Muslim acceptance of U.S. presidents under BHO and Bush -- "The Elephant in the Room: Islamism and appeasement; Obama is abandoning religious freedom to placate oppressive Muslim regimes." A summary of his article is provided below:

Obama has worked hard to make friends with our Muslim-country neighbors, much differently than what president George W. Bush did in 2008. A recent Gallup poll indicates that Obama's acceptance isn't working too well. For example, in Iraq, his approval is 30%, while Bush's was 35%. In Lebanon, both presidents rate the same at 25%. To Obama's credit, he has done somewhat better than Bush in Egypt at 19%, up from 6%, and in the Palestinian territories' at 16%, up from 13%.

Rick goes on to note that: "Our chances of making progress in the Middle East will improve as soon as President Obama understands the following brute fact: the hostility between the United States and increasingly radicalized Muslims is not about what we do, but what they believe."

Characteristics of "The People's Law"

1. The people considered themselves as a commonwealth of free men.

2. All decisions are made with consent (usually a concensus) of the people.

3. Their laws were considered "natural law," inspired by divine compensation.

4. Power was dispersed amongst the people, never allowed to concentrate in any person or group.

5. Primary power to resolve problems rested first in the individual, then family, then community, then region, and as a last resort, the nation.

6. Every adult had a voice and vote; leaders were selected for units of 10 families, then 50 families, then 100 families, and then 1000 families.

7. Individual rights were considered unalienable and could not be violated without the wrath of divine justice and retribution by the people's judges.

8. The system of justice is structured upon severe punishment, unless complete reparation was made to the wronged individual.

9. If possible, problems were solved at the level they originated; else they went to next higher level.

Ruler's Law -- Laws Associated with Tyranny

Ruler's Law -- law associated with tyranny...

(1) Authority is established by force, violence, and/or conquest.

(8) The king gives edicts and enforces them with tyrannical control.
(9) Problems are solved by more edicts and generally more taxes.

Some Musings About Muslim Associates

As previously mentioned, I recognize that many Muslims are peace-loving citizens who accept the laws of their adopted countries, and don't subscribe to the radical Islamic Fundamentalist teachings found in the Islamic Trilogy (the Koran, the Sira, and the Hadith). The question we face is how to tell peaceful Muslims from those who wish us and/or our country harm.

To help differentiate between "likable" Muslims (those that I might choose to like), and "unlikable" Muslims (those that I do not like and/or trust), the following guidelines can be proposed:

Characteristics of "likable" Muslims:

(a) They believe in equality of Islam with other religions and seek converts by peaceful means.

(b) They adopt U.S. Bill of Rights and the U.S. Constitution.

(c) They can serve honorably in the U.S. military against all declared US enemies.

(d) They willingly pledge allegiance to the U.S. flag.

(e) They reject Taqiyya (lying to one's enemies) to confuse and/or deceive them.

(f) They reject use of terrorism in any and all forms.

(g) They reject the political aspects of radical fundamentalist Islamic teachings.

Characteristics of "unlikable" Muslims:

(a) They believe Islam is superior to all other religions and belief systems.

(b) They believe Islam will eventually dominate the entire world, and work toward this goal.

(c) They believe lying (taqiyya) to kafirs (unbelievers) to confuse and deceive them is okay.

(d) They believe Sharia law is god's law and must replace all "man-made" US laws.

(e) They believe terror tactics are valid political techniques for achieving their purposes.

(f) They believe physical jihad is a valid mechanism to dominate all non-believers.

(g) They believe all kafirs must convert to Islam, accept dhimmi (slave) status, or accept death.

Texas Education Board approves more conservative approach to radical Islamic Fundamentalism

Wow -- it seems that the Texas State Board of Education has voted to adopt a more conservative approach in the standards they will be using in their new textbooks. And, since Texas is such a large state, the standards adopted by Texas are adopted by many other state school boards throughout the country. The overall change is significant.

One area that has been beefed up considerably is Islamic fundamentalism and Palestinian terrorism. The final version, approved on May 21, 2010, reads as follows:

Section 113.42, World History Studies (14), "History. The student understands the development of radical Islamic fundamentalism, and the subsequent use of terrorism by some of its adherents. The student is expected to:

(A) summarize the development and impact of radical Islamic fundamentalism on events in the second half of the 20th century, including Palestinian terrorism and the growth of al Qaeda;

(B) explain the U.S. response to terrorism from September 11, 2001, to the present."
