Letters by a modern St. Ferdinand III about cults

Charles Krauthammer is a mainstay of 'conservatism' and clear thinking principles – usually. It is obvious however, that he and many others, have no knowledge about Islam, Arab imperialism, nor have ever bothered to read the Koran, or even attempted to understand the savagery of a political theology which has killed 270 or more millions in 1400 years of unrelenting jihad. Yet Krauthammer and his media friends imitate the Bushism and opine in their glorious ignorance, that 'Islam is peace' even as overwhelming evidence and reality point out the opposite. So much for those rabid, anti-Muslim, toothless conservative opinion makers. They are as adept and quick to implore dhimmitude and appeasement as any globalist, multi-culturalist or nescient commentator about the Arab moon cult.

Krauthammer's insipid offence is this – he slandered Geert Wilders the Dutch politician and one of the few in Europe who has enough courage to call Islam what it is, namely a political theology of Fascism. Wilders has studied, understands and can debate about all matters of Islam. Krauthammer can't. Here is what the supposed 'neo-con' Krauthammer had to say about Wilders:

“...What he says is extreme, radical, and wrong. He basically is arguing that Islam is the same as Islamism. Islamism is an ideology of a small minority which holds that the essence of Islam is jihad, conquest, forcing people into accepting a certain very narrow interpretation [of Islam].” http://corner.nationalreview.com/post/?q=MTA0YWU2NjQzZTM3YjRmNDA4ZDk2NWNjNzQyYjlmYTY=

This is the shockingly dumb and marginally illiterate mainstream position on Islam – the same taken by both the Bush and Prophet Obamed administrations. Islam is a totality. The Koran is its basis. If you are a pious Muslim you believe in the Koran. The Koran advocates jihad, war, universal control and the division of society between ruling Muslims who have power, rights and the law, and non-Muslims who don't. Wilders simply points this out. To call him 'extreme' is insane. It is the Koran and Islam which are extreme, not a person telling the truth.

As Robert Spencer of Jihadwatch.org so rightly and eloquently stated:

“There is no widespread debate among Muslims, outside of a few professors and self-proclaimed reformers with tiny followings, about whether the umma should wage war against unbelievers and strive in various ways to impose Sharia upon the world.

But Krauthammer seems to assume that there is a sharp division between Muslims who are political and supremacist and those who are not -- for that is the essence of his saying that the "Islamists" believe that "the essence of Islam is jihad, conquest, forcing people into accepting a certain very narrow interpretation [of Islam]." Jihad -- however variously interpreted -- is a key element of the Islamic faith according to every single Islamic authority on the planet.

Krauthammer, of course, is referring to violent jihad, and assuming that Muslims who are not engaging in it are not rejecting it as a matter of practicality or strategy, or an indifference to their faith, or a failure of courage, but because they actually do not believe it legitimate as a matter of Islamic theology for Muslims to wage war against unbelievers. He would be hard-pressed to find any honest Islamic authorities who would back him up on that -- as evidenced by what Islamic authorities say and write to their fellow Muslims, not by what they say and write to easily and eagerly fooled non-Muslim Westerners.” http://www.jihadwatch.org/2010/03/krauthammer-on-wilders-ignorant-naive-and-wrong.html#comments

Jihadic war is Islam. It always has been. Spencer is an expert and correct that almost every single Muslim leader, authority and historical figure revered by Muslims, advocated, practised or exhorted the use of war to spread Islam. It is mentally deficient to then state that someone pointing that out is 'extreme'. It is dark insanity to further state that since most Muslims are not openly engaged in violent jihad that they, and their ideology for the most part, must be 'peaceful'. This is absurd. Many Mulsims – some 40 % in many Western states – want Sharia law, which is not a set of laws, but a rigorous prosecution of Koranic intolerance. Millions of Muslims secretly applaud jihadist activity. Many millions send money to jihadic groups. Millions of domiciled Muslims in the West want the West to collapse and supplicate itself to Islam. These are facts not fancy uncovered through trials, Islamic cell disruption, paper trails and money flows.

“So Krauthammer is taking the fact that most U.S. Muslims are not engaging in jihad violence to mean that they reject it in principle. This would be a naive assumption in any context. There may be any number of reasons why someone is not doing something, and it would be silly to assume that anyone who is not doing some particular thing is refraining because he believes that to do it would be wrong.”

Silly indeed. Millions of dollars flow from Europe and the USA into the coffers of Hamas and other radical Muslim groups. Extremist mosques abound on both sides of the Atlantic. Islamic jihad is alive and well across the world with daily attacks and thousands each week wounded or killed. Krauthammer reflects the mainstream dhimmi view that a pagan fascism is somehow a 'religion'. It isn't. Islam is a political project. Any cursory reading of Islamic theology, history and modern day fanatical jihad makes that very obvious.
