April 15, 2011 Does Islam Breed Violence? <http://www.familysecuritymatters.org/authors/id.157/author_detail.asp> Amil Imani http://www.familysecuritymatters.org/imgLib/20101005_DashtiKnife.jpg There is a division of the house. On one side are the politically correct in government, the leftist mainstream media, and a raft of Islamist apologists. One and all are tripping over each other in reassuring us that the mass murderers such as Maj. Nidal Malik Hasan and suicide bombers who detonate their explosive vests in crowded marketplaces and even mosques are individual anomalies and <http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zFUmOX8mOuA> Islam is not responsible for what they do. On the other hand are those who have been fed up with the numberless daily horrific acts that are clearly committed under the banner of Islam throughout the world. In all fairness, there needs to be a distinction. Numerous criminal acts are also committed, on a daily basis, by non-Muslims. The critical difference is that non-Muslim criminals do not hoist a religious banner to justify their misdeeds, while the Muslims proudly claim that they commit their heinous acts in obedience to the dictates of their religious faith. “Investigators in the FBI and U.S. Army determined that Hasan acted alone and as of yet have found no evidence of links to terrorist groups, satisfied that his communications with Awlaki posed no threat. Regretfully, Attorney General <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eric_Holder> Eric Holder has declined to state that <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radical_Islam> radical Islam was the major motive for Hasan's attack.” Would someone, please, explain what motivated Nidal Hasan who had been, at tax payer’s expense, educated from college all the way through medical school and post medical-school training, to turn his deadly weapons against a nation that gave him everything he had? If Islam had nothing to do with what Maj. Nidal Malik Hasan did, why: · had he repeatedly preached the ascendancy of Islam to the U.S. Constitution? · had he publicly supported Islamic suicide bombing? · had he proclaimed his highest loyalty to Islam? · had he been in contact with violent anti-U.S. Islamists and a virulent Yemeni Imam? · did he distribute copies of the Quran to people the morning of his bloody attack? · did he keep screaming “Allah-o-Akbar” as he heartlessly sprayed over a hundred bullets, killing thirteen and injuring some thirty innocent men and women? Here is the truth, as bitter as it may be. Islam is the culprit. Islam is anything but a religion of peace. Violence is at the very core of Islam. Violence is institutionalized in the Muslim’s holy book, the Quran, in many suras: Qur'an:9:5 "Fight and kill the disbelievers wherever you find them, take them captive, harass them, lie in wait and ambush them using every stratagem of war." Qur'an:9:112 "The Believers fight in Allah's cause; they slay and are slain, kill and are killed." Qur'an:8:39 "So fight them until there is no more Fitnah (disbelief [non-Muslims]) and all submit to the religion of Allah alone (in the whole world)." Qur'an:8:65 "O Prophet, urge the faithful to fight. If there are twenty among you with determination they will vanquish two hundred; if there are a hundred then they will slaughter a thousand unbelievers, for the infidels are a people devoid of understanding." Qur'an:9:38 "Believers, what is the matter with you, that when you are asked to go forth and fight in Allah's Cause you cling to the earth? Do you prefer the life of this world to the Hereafter? Unless you go forth, He will afflict and punish you with a painful doom, and put others in your place." Qur'an:47:4 "When you clash with the unbelieving Infidels in battle (fighting Jihad in Allah's Cause), smite their necks until you overpower them, killing and wounding many of them. At length, when you have thoroughly subdued them, bind them firmly, making (them) captives. Thereafter either generosity or ransom (them based upon what benefits Islam) until the war lays down its burdens. Thus are you commanded by Allah to continue carrying out Jihad against the unbelieving infidels until they submit to Islam." And the Quran is considered by Muslims as the word-for-word literal edicts of the Muslims’ god, Allah. Right from the start, violence served as the engine of Islam under the command and supervision of Muhammad himself. For one, the Prophet’s son-in-law cousin, Ali, was titled the Commander of the Faithful for his unsurpassed feats of butchery. Ali with the assistance of one or two of his thugs, beheaded some seven hundred captives, most of them Jews, in only one day. This man, highly esteemed by the prophet of Allah, had a sword that had its own name—Zolfaquar. Ali’s portrait, holding the menacing sword, adorns the homes and shops throughout Shi’a’-lands. And the Shiites, at the same level as Muhammad, revere Muhammad’s executioner, Imam Ali. On the Sunni side, Muhammad’s co-revered is Umar, another unabashed killer of untold numbers. And of course the choice weapon of these champions of the religion of peace was the sword. And to this day, a sword adorns the flag of the birthplace of the religion of peace, Saudi Arabia. And Islam, by the nature of its very doctrine, appeals to man’s base nature. It promotes intolerance, hatred, discrimination, and much more: Qur'an:61:2 "O Muslims, why say one thing and do another? Grievously odious and hateful is it in the sight of Allah that you say that which you do not. Truly Allah loves those who fight in His Cause in a battle array, as if they were a solid cemented structure." In reality, Islam is like a deadly contagious disease. Once it invades the mind of its victim, this debilitating disease is capable of transforming him to a helpless pawn that has no choice but to execute what he is directed to do. Of the reported 1.3 billion Muslims in the world, millions are already trapped in the terminal stages of this affliction while millions of others are rapidly joining them. The people enslaved with the extreme cases of Islamic mental disease are highly infectious. They actively work to transmit the disease to others, while they themselves engage in horrific acts of mayhem and violence to demonstrate their unconditional obedience to the dictates of the Islamic cult of violence. The savagery and variety of the actions of these Islamic captives are seen <http://barenakedislam.wordpress.com/2009/08/09/media-blackout-on-brutal-muslim-on-muslim-killings-and-dismemberment-viewer-discretion-advised/> daily around the globe. Many of these acts, committed under the banner of Islam, have become so commonplace that the world has come to view them as the normal part and parcel of a troubled humanity. And, from time-to-time, the world is shocked into a passing and momentary realization of the evil deeds these Islamist robots commit and quickly gets over it and does nothing to seriously address this affliction of humanity. The November 5, 2009 dastardly mass murder at Fort Hood, committed by <http://www.speroforum.com/a/22168/Muslim-massmurderer-at-Ft-Hood> Maj. Nidal Malik Hasan, is no longer in the public eye. Life will continue on its deadly course, pushed along in a variety of ways by agents of death, Islamists. Only the families who lost their loved-ones and those who survived the bullets have to live the rest of their lives with incapacitating injuries, in the main, won’t be able to put the episode behind them. The mass murderer Nidal Malik Hasan did not riddle people with bullets under the pressure of momentary insanity. The insanity, ironically, in a man who was trained to help people with sanity was introduced in him from the moment of birth and from the very early years when he prostrated himself five times daily toward Mecca in expression of total submission to the dogma of hate called Islam. Islam is a mental retrovirus that has mutated into numerous varieties and degrees of severity, over the past 1400 years. Everyone born in a Muslim family, as well as those who convert to Islam, contract a particular mutation of the Islamic Virus. As is the case with all retroviruses, the Islamic Virus burrows deeply in the person and erupts, from time-to-time with potentially devastating consequences. The Islamic Virus first divests the person of his most fundamental human attribute. It takes away his right to make decisions himself and absolves him, in return, of any responsibility for his actions rendered in blind obedience to it. A true Muslim does not and cannot believe in freedom of choice. In the religion of Islam—Submission—everything is up to <http://darulfatwa.org.au/content/view/1317/288/> Allah, as clearly and repeatedly stipulated in the Quran. The Raison d'être for the Muslim is to be an unconditional submissive to the will and dictates of Allah. Everything that a “good” Muslim does is contingent upon the will and decree of Allah, he is indoctrinated to believe. Humanity is facing a deeply troubling dilemma. On the one hand is the desire of enlightened people whose aim it is to forge a world of diverse people into one universal society ruled by peace and justice for everyone while, on the other hand, Islamists are hell-bent on imposing their stone-age system on everyone. Tellingly, the Muslims themselves are at <http://wasteofmyoxygen.wordpress.com/2007/10/09/staggering-statistics-on-muslims-killing-muslims/> one another’s throat regarding which of dozens of Islamic sects’ dogma should rule. For now, Islam is busy with what it did from the time of its birth, fighting the non-Muslims and infighting. Truth be told: Violence is the animating force of Islam. Islam is a religion born through violence, raised by violence, thrives on violence and dies without violence. <http://www.fsmarchives.org/> FamilySecurityMatters.org Contributing Editor <http://www.fsmarchives.org/authors/id.157/author_detail.asp> Amil Imani is an Iranian-born American citizen and a pro-democracy activist residing in the United States of America.

Reader Comments: _____ Dear Amil, You are doing a yeomen service to educate the humanity on the danger it faces from Islam. The greatest breeding place for Islam is India. India (Hindus) has experienced Islamic terror multi-times more than the Islamic terror experienced by rest of the world combined. Islamic terror continues (openly supported by pseudo-secular and marxists political parties) unabated in India (mostly against Hindus). Yet the world is silent. Could you please write a series of informative and educative articles on this? No Islamic terror analysis and strategy would be complete without including India's situation. Thank you. May you live long and boldly keep up the truthful exposure of Islam. Vasudeva 'A drop of practice is better than oceans of theories, advices and good resolutions.' Sri Aurobindo posted by: Vasudeva Friday, April 15, 2011 at 04:22 AM _____ Very good article. I think what causes a lot of people problems with the concept of violence in Islam is that they don't recognize or understand two things - the doctrine of abrogation and the progression from the earliest peaceful stages in Mecca when Islam was weak through defensive then offensive jihad. The failure to grasp these two things makes it very difficult for non-Muslims to understand the religion for itself, rather than from a Judeo-Christian or secular frame of reference. best wishes, posted by: Anthoney Friday, April 15, 2011 at 04:23 AM _____ Thank you for such an honest expose' of Islam. One correction, if you don't mind, is that there were 14 murdered by Hasan; one of the female victims was pregnant. I guess that was legal because it was a late term abortion paid for with taxpayer funds. David posted by: David Friday, April 15, 2011 at 04:26 AM _____ I believe, based on what has happened in the world during my lifetime, that Allah is Satan, and Muhammad is His disciple. Read Dante's Inferno and you'll understand my sentiments. posted by: Patrick Friday, April 15, 2011 at 04:27 AM _____ Islam is based on violence. It breeds violence and thrives on it. Note that great Iranians like 'Ahmad Kasravi' were murdered by Islamic inspiration of the demon known as 'Khomeini'. Then there was the beating to death of Dashti by Islamic thugs.And there are 1000's of others being murdered by IRI with its stupid 'capital punishment'. The whole thing is sick. How would any Iranian defend the religion of Ahriman is beyond reason. It must be a sort of stockholm syndrome {if you don't know it look it up on Wiki}. For 1400 years Islam has brought misery to Iran. It is time for it to be over for ever. Wake up folks, there are not more Arabs out there to kill us. We are free {at least those in the West} to chose our own path. Very soon Iran will also be free. posted by: Veiled Prophet of Khorasan Friday, April 15, 2011 at 05:51 AM _____ Our elected leaders are one of our worst threats. That Islam is a religion of peace, is a convenient myth for gullible fools and others with their head in the sand or up where the sun never shines. It is also a convenient smoke cover for Muslims. Okay, the 'peaceful' Muslims. How convenient that the radical Jihadis are pushing the western wimp governments around. Islam is still programmed to take over and they are advancing their religion with feigned passivity. Its an extreme rare case when a Muslim condemns the Jihadis and the violence. Once the gloves are off, and they will someday, maybe too late, the mass of Muslims will still be quietly accepting and supporting the violent, militant heroes of Islam. What else can they do? posted by: Craig Friday, April 15, 2011 at 05:56 AM _____ Excellently done. We need to get this out to every liberty loving citizen of America. I understand you say it will die if it cannot commit violence. I agree with another writer that it must be actively destroyed to be laid to rest in America. It has it's place in Saudi Arabia, if they so choose. Free men, choose to fight for freedom, not to be bound by religion of violence. The only reason it is here is that this great country is FREE. Opportunity exists for free thought, but they so choose to be led by hate, rather than enter into the richness of the society that enables their ability to succeed in anything they like. It just so happens they like to murder, kill, maim, destroy. One of those killed was a woman pregnant--so 14 actually died that day. It may be time to say that guns don't kill people, but people do. I understand that our rights to bear arms has been attacked because a wacko terrorist killed our brave troops on their own base,where we should have made them safe. They risk all to keep us safe, and here at home we allow them to be shot down like dogs, in the name of some profane idol. Certain of our population have found this a 'crisis of opportunity' to be used to advance their anti-gun agenda. It didn't happen because of guns, it didn't happen because we have a military, it didn't even happen because of anger, it happened because this ones religion teaches to murder in order to sacrifice/serve to their god. We need to open our eyes and look at the writing on the wall. Here is our sign. This was overlooked because of political correctness, freedom of speech some say. If the media wasn't so busy trying to cover up and actively tried to find out the truth, the activities would have been in the news. But they didn't. Here we are. The stories range from he was a deranged conservative to he was harmed by the words of fellow troops and justifiably went psychotic. They are crying that the poor terrorist lost his bullets in those bad militarily troops. The media is shameful. Thanks for the truth!!!! posted by: Ka13 Friday, April 15, 2011 at 05:58 AM _____ thank you for this wonderful article, can you send it to the various Conservative radio talk show hosts who expose islam as a religion even though they blame the so called extreme islamists. what is not extreme about islam? perhaps the various local talk show hosts l listen to on Detroit WJR needs some education and yes even Sean Hannity. all very good decent radio people but they only have it half right about islam. posted by: Louise Friday, April 15, 2011 at 06:43 AM _____ Yes. Not only does Islam breed violence…it cannot survive without violence or the constant threat of violence. The Islamic community is held breathless by the expectation of criticism and the attendant violence. The worst feature of Islam is that VIGILANTISM is encouraged! That is, ordinary Muslims are encouraged to take the law into their own hands (said Mohammed) to respond to un-Islamic activities. All Muslims are thus given authorization to kill, maim, rape and thieve…all of this blessed by Allah…if they are putting the dirty Kafirs in their place. Jihad goes on constantly…against women, against ‘brother’ Muslims, against the evil Kafirs. Clandestine, vigilante, urban jihad is the way Islam is trying to win. This is an evil death cult. posted by: KOLA Friday, April 15, 2011 at 06:47 AM _____ Islam’s main prophet set no example to his followers – looting homes and encouraging violence. Few Westerners know that the Muslims launched their own Crusades outside of Arabia two years after Muhammad’s death of a fever in AD 632. Look at what’s going on today. posted by: Ell T Friday, April 15, 2011 at 06:48 AM _____ Mr. Hasan, May you be swiftly executed, may you rot in Hell for eternity, and may your family be ashamed of you for as long as they shall live. With utmost contempt, Muslims Against Sharia posted by: Muslims Against Sharia Friday, April 15, 2011 at 06:52 AM _____ Islam is an Arab supremacist cult ,and not a religion in the way it is normally understood preaching peace and righteousness , that instigates its adherents to violence and forcibly converting everyone to its criminal ideology. There is no misunderstanding in this . The world should try to eradicate this barbaric cult by force ,if necessary like they eliminate mafia,drug paddlers, organized crime. Yes ,indeed , islam is the largest ever for of organized crime. posted by: kafir Friday, April 15, 2011 at 06:55 AM _____ "Truth be told, violence is the animating force of Islam. Islam is a religion born through violence, raised by violence, which thrives on violence, and which dies without violence." The simplest explanation of islam that I have ever read. If they're not killing kaffirs then they start on each other. It is a parasitic cult that must feed on hate and blood to survive. Even if, God forbid, they managed to establish a caliphate it wouldn't last due to the innate need for violence in Islam. posted by: Ex-Muslim Friday, April 15, 2011 at 06:57 AM _____ The followings are the records of Islam in Iran. This is the Iranian experience of Islam in Iran through out the past 1374 history of Islam in Iran. The first wave of persecution of Iranians started on 637. Persecution of Iranian Zoroastrians by Arab Moslems! The following link would tell you how it happened: 1. Persecution of Zoroastrians (started on 637): http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Persecution_of_Zoroastrians The second wave of persecution was during the Safavid dynasty. This time it was persecution of Sunni Moslems by Shia Moslems. 2. The Safavid conversion of Iran from Sunnism to Shiism (started on 1501): http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Safavid_conversion_of_Iran_from_Sunnism_to_Shiism The third wave of persecution was during the Ghajar dynasty, mainly during Nasseradin Shah. This time the Bahá'Ãs were being persecuted by the Shia Moslems and still continues. 3. The persecution of Bahá'Ãs (started on 1844): http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Persecution_of_Bah%C3%A1'%C3%ADs For the past 1374 years three different large groups of people have been persecuted in Iran simply because they have had different religions. For so long and so many victims! So sad and so inhumane… David Ramezani posted by: David Ramezani Friday, April 15, 2011 at 07:38 AM _____ ISLAM's self-chosen disability..... Deterministic systems, ideological symbols of abdication by man from his natural role as earth's Choicemaker, inevitably degenerate into collectivism; the negation of singularity, they become a conglomerate plural-based system of measuring human value. Blunting an awareness of diversity, blurring alternatives, and limiting the selective creative process, they are self-relegated to a passive and circular regression. Tampering with man's selective nature endangers his survival for it would render him impotent and obsolete by denying the tools of variety, individuality, perception, criteria, selectivity, and progress. Coercive attempts produce revulsion, for such acts are contrary to an indeterminate nature and nature's indeterminate off-spring, man the Choicemaker. Until the oppressors discover that wisdom only just begins with a respectful acknowledgment of The Creator,The Creation, and The Choicemaker, they will be ever learning but never coming to a knowledge of the truth. The rejection of Creator-initiated standards relegates the mind of man to its own primitive, empirical, and delimited devices. It is thus that the human intellect cannot ascend and function at any level higher than the criteria by which it perceives and measures values. Additionally, such rejection of transcendent criteria self-denies man the vision and foresight essential to decision-making for survival and progression. He is left, instead, with the redundant wreckage of expensive hind- sight, including human institutions characterized by averages, mediocrity, and regression. Humanism, mired in the circular and mundane egocentric predicament, is ill-equipped to produce transcendent criteria. Evidenced by those who do not perceive superiority and thus find themselves beset by the shifting winds of the carnal-ego; i.e., moods, feelings, desires, appetites, etc., the mind becomes subordinate: a mere device for excuse-making and rationalizing self-justifica- tion. The carnal-ego rejects criteria and self-discipline for such instruments are tools of the mind and the attitude. The appetites of the flesh have no need of standards for at the point of contention standards are perceived as.... posted by: Jim Friday, April 15, 2011 at 10:22 AM _____ Those who are apologizing for Islam are either ignorant of it or are being flat dishonest. And to those who justify Islam's violence by referring to other religions as violent... I respond by saying Yes you are right...they were, and they have learned errors of their ways and have joined 21ts century and no longer brutalize human beings in the name of religion. It is Islam that is going back to its purest form: Mohammad's time, they consider their mass killings, rape and torture Islam's golden age and want to resurrect it. My plea is please read and educate yourself about Islam, Quran and Mohammad. More than 60% of Quran is about violence and violence verses. posted by: Babak Friday, April 15, 2011 at 10:23 AM _____ Mohammad preached for 10 years after he invented Islam as a religion and had about 150 followers. Then, The history of political Islam starts with Mohammad's immigration to Medina. From that point on, Islam’s appeal to the world has always had the dualistic option of joining a glorious religion or being the subject of political pressure and violence. After the immigration to Medina, Islam became violent when persuasion failed. Jihad entered the world. After Mohammed’s death, Abu Bakr, the second caliph, settled the theological arguments of those who wished to leave Islam with the political action of death by the sword. The jihad of Umar (the second caliph, a pope-king) exploded into the world of the unbelievers. Jihad destroyed a Christian Middle East and a Christian North Africa. Soon it was the fate of the Persian Zoroastrian and the Hindu to be the victims of jihad. The history of political Islam is the destruction of Christianity in the Middle East, Egypt, Turkey and North Africa. Half of Christianity was lost. Before Islam, North Africa was the southern part of Europe (part of the Roman Empire). Around 60 million Christians were slaughtered during the jihadic conquest. Half of the glorious Hindu civilization was annihilated and 80 million Hindus killed. The first Western Buddhists were the Greeks descended from Alexander the Great’s army in what is now Afghanistan. Jihad destroyed all of Buddhism along the silk route. About 10 million Buddhists died. The conquest of Buddhism is the practical result of pacifism. Zoarasterianism was eliminated from Persia. The Jews became permanent dhimmis throughout Islam. In Africa over 120 million Christians and animists have died over the last 1400 years of jihad. Approximately 270 million nonbelievers died over the last 1400 years for the glory of political Islam. These are the Tears of Jihad which are not taught in any school. Any further questions about the Religion of peace? posted by: Rich Friday, April 15, 2011 at 10:26 AM _____ Your article needs to be publish all over Europe (muslim lovers). Muslims are for anything but peace. They are cold blooded killers. Being a muslim is not a religion, it is a cult and we need to stand up to them before they take us down posted by: ROSA Friday, April 15, 2011 at 10:28 AM _____ I learned all I will ever need to know about Islam/Muslims on 9/11. posted by: OregonBuzz Friday, April 15, 2011 at 10:52 AM _____ "Does Islam breed violence?" I think this question deserves a cliche...Is the Pope Catholic? posted by: June Friday, April 15, 2011 at 11:01 AM _____ It is not nor has it ever been a religion of peace. Islam is a cult religion that is based on materialistic expansionism. Note: Pam Geller, AtlasShrugs.com, reports that Eric Holder and Obama have decided to drop all charges against all parties involved in "The Holyland Foundation" scandal, where the FBI had named CAIR, ISNA, ICNA, et all,...a.k.a the Muslim Brotherhood, as "unindicted co-conspirators". This was a treasonous offence and all parties should have been persecuted but Obiwan and Holdem have decided that they should go free. Where is sheriff Wyatt Earp when you really need him? I can think of one corrupt politician and his corrupt marshall that should be hanged for treason. posted by: Kim Bruce Friday, April 15, 2011 at 11:01 AM [Non-text portions of this message have been removed] ------------------------------------ -------------------------- Want to discuss this topic?
