The Disaster of Forcing Fantasy Islam

First we have Islam, a religion attempting to present itself behind
a mask of peace, and now we have government officials desperately
seeking to perpetrate the fantasy by finding Imams who will validate
the new and improved peaceful version.
The new Jan. 17 issue of Newsweek International is featuring an
article called "New Imams" by Carla Power. Apparently religion is as
misunderstood by secularists as "The Passion of Christ" was
misunderstood by Hollywood. Over and over the article treats the
concept of rewriting Islam as though it’s a possibility, if only we
could find the right representatives. Not only do we have a religion
founded on violence presenting itself as peaceful, but our leaders are
behaving like moon-struck women desperately hoping to believe the
fairy-tale, doing everything they can to perpetuate and embrace it.
Power writes, "Yet creating a Muslim establishment has proved as
tough as boxing moon—beams. Time and again, European governments seem
to pick the wrong champions."
Pay attention, secularists. You are not picking the wrong
champions. You are trying to perpetrate a fantasy that won’t work.
Islam has holy books, and all you are doing is helping to sugar-coat
the reality that those books preach violence, death and torture to
Christians, Jews and non-believers, even moderate Muslims. If you
succeed in duping all the world to embrace Islam as peaceful, more and
more will convert, only to find SURPRISE! Sharia law, that
totalitarian belief system that destroys freedom.
Power writes, "When a German court recently awarded Muslims the
same right to public-school religious instruction as Christians, the
Berlin city government had to find a partner to organize classes on
Islam. Who stepped forward? Only the ultraorthodox Islamic
Federation".
Why is Islam so confusing to national leaders and policy makers?
Because the Koran contains verses about peace and love, but after
Muhammad was rejected by the Jews and Christians as a prophet, Allah
suddenly began telling Muhammad to kill the Christians and Jews
(rather convenient). When presented with the verses of hatred, imams
and clerics will tell you those verses are out of context and repeat
the peaceful ones, but fundamental Muslims know the context lies in
other holy books, the Hadith and the Sira (not to be confused with
Surah of the Koran). The Hadith and the Sira supply the "method of
Muhammad" which is the goal of Islam. Muhammad SLAUGHTERED Christians
and Jews and hid weapons in mosques. Sound familiar?
"Fight those who do not believe in Allah…And the Jews say Ezra is
the son of God; and the Christians say Christ is the son of God;
these are the words of their mouths; they imitate the saying of
those who disbelieved before; Allah’s curse be on them; how they are
turned away!" (Koran 9:29-30)
If you want to know the absolute truth about Islam, ask any Muslim
what would happen if he left Islam. There is absolutely no controversy
on this, it would mean DEATH, not only to the ex-Muslim, but often to
his family as well.
It is mind boggling that a news source such as Newsweek would
publish such ignorant tripe. One cannot simply rewrite a religion and
expect everyone to accept it. It will not happen. The new version is
utterly worthless, except to use as propaganda to indoctrinate the
gullible. Newsweek or any other media source would be better off if
they made up a new Muhammad who has fresh revelations that Allah has
changed his mind again and promotes peace. That would be more
believable than the new and improved fantasy Islam by secularists
desperately seeking to believe in fairy-tales.
Rep. Shelley Berkley said on the subject of Muslims and Saudis,
"We support nations that support individuals that do not have our
best interests at heart, quite the contrary, they’re our biggest
enemies in the world and we dress them up and we take them out on a
date and pretend that they’re our lovers and they are NOT." (
Islam is not our lover. At some point a woman recognizes she’s in
danger of being forced to submit on a date. How long before America’s
media wakes up, smells the coffee and actually "sources" their
material? Read the Koran. Read the Hadith and the Sira and quit
repeating our "date" has good intentions, desperately looking for one
who will repeat the lies, until we find ourselves under the
totalitarian rule of a dark religion or dead.
With every proclamation that Islam is peaceful, mainstream media
continues to lose credibility. It’s hard to deny the intent of Islam
when it’s written in black and white:
Allah's apostle said, "I have been ordered to fight with the
people till they say, 'None has the right to be worshipped but
Allah" (Hadith 4:52:196)

1/10/05 An Islamic "information" group based in
Washington DC is frantically attempting to contest the above Hadith
quote. It is in the Hadith, Bukhara version. To find it in other
versions the number is Hadith 4:196. It ASTOUNDS me how these groups
attempt to feign ignorance. (If you don't have a copy of the Hadith,
