From the Mouths of our Enemies, Pt 5

Here is the next installment from the book for your reading pleasure.

Enjoy.


Blowing things (and people) Up for Allah.

The great prophet of Islam in one hand carried the Koran and in the other a sword; the sword for crushing the traitors and the Koran for guidance. For those who could be guided, the Koran was their means of guidance, while as for those who could not be guided and were plotters, the sword descended on their heads. ...Islam is a religion of blood for the infidels but a religion of guidance for the other people.(30)
Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini, 1979
   After more than 45 years of hatred inculcated by a frustration at a non-Muslim state existing in Muhammad’s back yard the time was ripe for a new level of violence and hate. 
    The leaders of Islam, which included the Ayatollah Khomeini knew that they needed to combine the hatred born of Israel’s existence and the perfect example of Muhammad in order to crystallize in the minds of the ummah their real and perpetual enemy. 
    The west as well as Islamic countries considered not "Islamic" enough now were put on the front burner, targets legitimized through their support of Israel, but more importantly legitimate targets through their mere existence as non-Muslims in a Muslim-centric worldview. 
    Now it became a full-blown hatred of anything seen as non-Muslim, its influence, styles, freedoms, humanity, equality and love of life have all come under the sword of Islamic expansion. 
   The rise of the PLO, Fatah, Hizballah, Islamic Jihad, Al-Qaeda, Hamas and a host of others gave Arabs hope that their fight for dominance in a world of infidels may have a happy ending.
     For those who inhabit "Dar al Harb" or the House of War (non-Muslims) there is no hope, only ignorance and a false belief that the words coming from the mouths of our enemies couldn't possibly be what we think they might mean, they are just confused, or angry, or hungry, or needing a hug.  This mindset will only result in another Chamberlain paper-waving media session.  And the battle rages on.
 
   In the year 1970 over 50 attacks against western and non-Muslim entities occurred, virtually all of them perpetrated by Fatah, PFLP, PLO and the Eritrean Islamic Jihad Movement.  All of these groups without exception were operating under, and for the glory of Islam, Muhammad and the plan to die a martyr. 
   Throughout the 1970s fundamental Islam grew both in power and influence among the ummah.  Hundreds of attacks happened all over the globe: hijackings, kidnappings, murders, random shootings, virtually any type of horror one can imagine Muslims put in practice. 
    On January 24, 1970 In Israel, Fatah and the PFLP claimed credit for the explosion of an ammunition truck which was being unloaded at the time. Nineteen people were killed and 36 Israelis were injured. This act of cowardice was combined with a press release which served to confirm the merging of Yassar Arafats PLO with George Habashs PFLP.  Now the ideological biumvirat is forged and history has proved how from this twisted melding of goals, ideals and doctrine rose the 21st century version of the worst of the 20th century. 
   Late in 1970 the PFLP hijacked 4 airliners, a TWA Boeing 707 from Frankfurt, Germany, a Pan-Am Boeing 747 from Amsterdam, an El Al Boeing 707 also from Amsterdam, and a Swissair DC-8 flight from Zurich, carrying a combined total of 400 passengers.  The passengers were eventually released but all four planes were blown up.  The reason?   The PFLP said that the civilian aircraft had been destroyed to punish America for supplying arms to Israel and for its peace initiatives in the Middle East. 
    Take that statement to mean peace, as in "eliminate Israel and non-Muslims" kind of peace. The bombings, hijackings and murders in the name of Allah continued unabated throughout the 1970s, the circle of victims’ ever-widening as the Islamic world expanded their sphere of terror beyond their previous borders.  No one was safe from Islamic hate and anger. 
   During the summer of 1979, that hate boiled over with the overthrow of the Shah of Iran and the installation the Ayatollah Khomeini and his fundamental brand of Shia Islam.  The taking of the hostages in 1979 by Iran should have been the trigger-point for us in our understanding of what our enemies say, but when left in President Carters hands we managed to lose American servicemen, aircraft and the cojones to continue. 
    The Iranian crisis ended minutes after Reagan was sworn in, only due to the belief by the Ayatollah and the ruling Islamic Council that they were going to be on the receiving end of a few very nasty American weapons unless they released them immediately. 
    The showdown ended, and we went back to our somnambulant ways, only caring about our cars, our jobs and our money.  The Islamic problem would sleep, unidentified, for another 22 years.
    This level of up close and personal carnage so shocked our military and political leaders that they turned tail and ran, vowing to never let something like this happen again.  Unfortunately, running from a battle with fundamental Islam will only result in getting shot in the back.  In this case, actions spoke louder than words and with this blast, their actions became much more strident and vitriolic.
     We should have had our ears perked up and rotating, but we were still asleep next to the campfire, warm and unaware of the eyes in the forest.
   From this point in time, until today, fundamental (militant) Islam has defined, re-defined and clarified its position on a multitude of non-Muslim sins with all schools of thought of one mind:  the re-establish the caliphate world-wide, the total destruction of Israel and the Jews and the subjugation and/or enslavement of those who refuse to submit to the word of Allah. 
    There can be no doubt from now on that Islamic hegemony is at the top of their list of things to do before I die...for Allah.  All non-Muslim countries, as well as those who practice a less than pure form of Islam are targeted, and the pressure is growing on the west to do something, anything. 
    Yet the blindness with which the western governments operate under as to fundamental Islam will bring on Islamic monotheism in all corners of the globe, crushing the last attempts to understand and act against the onslaught.  That blindness will prevent the west from doing anything significant to thwart the spread of Islam and leave all of us to fend, and defend for ourselves the ideals and morals binding all civilized societies.

The Rise of Fundamental (militant) Islam and the Part the West Plays
    None.  The west and all its brethren are not players in fundamental Islam and its meteoric rise to prominence. Through Muhammad was created the doctrine and tenets of Islam long before there was any such thing as a "Western Culture" as we know it today.
     Our perception of Islam has not changed, what has changed is the veracity with which Islam has been defined the last 30+ years.  The new players such as Hamas, Hizballah, Islamic Jihad and others make no bones about their intentions, still our silence is deafening.
    From the Hamas Charter published in 1985 comes these kind words, "Allah is its goal, the Prophet its model to be followed, the Koran its constitution, Jihad its way, and death for the sake of Allah its loftiest desire."  That is article 8 and a clear delineation of just who is in charge. 
    The attainment of the blessings of Allah can be made no more succinct.  In the past one could confuse the aggression by labeling it nationalism or political unrest or maybe even the poor rising up against their oppressors yet let there be no mistake, when you love and strive for death above life, there is little chance for any salvation beyond being scraped off the tarmac and placed into a zip-lok baggie. 
   The Hizballah Charter, or "program" as they refer to it, reiterates the same bile but wrapped in slightly different language, "We are often asked: Who are we, the Hizballah, and what is our identity? We are the sons of the ummah (Muslim community) - the party of God (Hizb Allah) the vanguard of which was made victorious by God in Iran. There the vanguard succeeded to lay down the bases of a Muslim state which plays a central role in the world."(31) 
    Next is this gem, "Let us put it truthfully: the sons of Hezbollah know who are their major enemies in the Middle East....Israel....and the US. The sons of our ummah are now in a state of.....confrontation with them..."  and to put the point on an already monochromatic lens, "....to determine their future and to choose in all the liberty the form of government they desire. We call upon all of them to pick the option of Islamic government which, alone, is capable of guaranteeing justice and liberty for all. Only an Islamic regime can stop any further tentative attempts of imperialistic infiltration into our country." 
These are Lebanon's objectives; those are its enemies. Hizballah program, 1985
    Concise, straightforward, honest and congruent, these words flow freely from the mouths of our enemies, nothing stands between the words and the meaning.  Obvious?  To some, yes.  To the masses oblivious to anything that changes their little fruit-fly lives, not in the least. 
    There are the "sticks and stones" people who will not believe words can be harmful in any sense.  They are dangerous and deluded to think actions cannot be attached to words.  Our enemies say what they mean.  No lies, no obfuscation, no circumlocution.  Only pure, unadulterated evil wrapped in the doctrines of fundamental Islamic hatred. 
    As many times as we might choose to ignore these words of hate it is impossible, even in the abstract.  Thousands upon thousands of exhortations, demands and calls to action come daily from those who are actively trying to kill us. 

"As for our culture, it is based on the Holy Koran, the Sunna and the legal rulings of the faqih who is our source of imitation (marja' al-taqlid). Our culture is crystal clear. It is not complicated and is accessible to all. Hizballah program, 1985"

    Absolute rigidity and control, that is what is crystal-clear when one reads the Qur'an, Sunna or hadiths of Muhammad and his creation of Islam.

"The Arabs are the core and guardians of Islam. ...Arab unity is an essential prerequisite for the restoration of Islam's glory, the reestablishment of the Muslim state, and the consolidation of Muslim power. This is why it is the duty of every Muslim to work for the revival and support of Arab unity."  Hasan Al-Banna (32)

   The words may be different but the meaning never changes.  Islamic supremacy in every country for all time is not some twisted vision of a "peaceful" theology nor some devious plan cooked up by a few malcontents over Qur'an readings and goat stew.  The doctrine is cemented in the foundational texts of Islam as given to Muhammad through the Angel Gabriel. 
    Muslim power, Arab hegemony and Islamic conquest have defined Islam in the past, it does so for today and the future holds those goals as the only epoch possible.
   Throughout the 1980s spreading fundamental Islam still could not capture the attention of the world.  The first Intifada began between Israel and the Arab nations, also the re-arranging of Muslim leaders and nations as well as wars fought among Muslims themselves and infidels.  We were, and still are unable to accept the doctrines behind Islam’s actions. 
   The USSR and its war in Afghanistan kept our attention away from the spread of Islam and focused on the plight of the "women and children" instead. 
    The Iran/Iraq war created havoc among the western powers while giving rise to a new term, "Mujahedeen" or holy warrior.  We tried to support, as we always do the side we thought would "win".  To our detriment we couldn't win then, and we won't win now either because we have absolutely no clue as to just who are our friends, and who are our enemies and the tenets driving the behavior.  The words of our enemies state plainly the goals of Islam.....
"....a kind of grand Jihad in eliminating and destroying the Western civilization from within and "sabotaging" its miserable house by their hands and the hands of the believers so that it is eliminated and God's religion is made victorious over all other religions.”(33)
    That is from the mouth of Mohamed Akram, leader of the Muslim Brotherhood.   It is one more claim of the intentions of our enemies.  The Muslim Brotherhood is but one of many heads on the Islamic hydra yet it is in the top 5 when it comes to terror and hate against kuffirs.
   The first intifada in 1987 ratcheted the anger up another rung, and now with the voices of Yassar Arafat and all of the emerging anti-non-Muslim minions shouting out to the world that it is Israel and her "supporters" who are the bona-fide crusaders against Muslims, Arabs, and of course Islam.  The world notices, but does nothing....again.
"We plan to eliminate the state of Israel and establish a purely Palestinian state. We will make life unbearable for Jews by psychological warfare and population explosion. We Palestinians will take over everything, including all of Jerusalem."(34)
    Yassar Arafat, leader of the PLO and one who shook many American political hands during his illustrious career left no doubt as to his opinion on Israel and her supporters.  Yet no one in power actually listened or, if they did it became a case of denial over reality. 
    Even as Arafat was not a pious Muslim, his overarching dogma in regards to the direction of the PLO was clearly in line with fundamental Islam and its grand jihad goals.  All the while this prattling by the PLO was going on, global jihad kept its eye on the brass ring. 
    The west fawned over the plight of those poor Palestinians and listened intently as Arafat sold them a bill of goods, all the while thinking that Arafat isn't so bad, he represents the will of his people, and he is a man who can be rationally negotiated with.  Naivety was one of our strong points in that scenario. 
    The details of our recent run-ins with Islam are well documented and should serve to enlighten us as to the subtle yet powerful threat we are under. 
   From the death of Arafat to the thousands of "terrorist" attacks from fundamental Islam we have had many wake-up calls but our instinct up to now has been to hit the snooze button. 
    When 9-11 occurred the world had our backs...sort of.  It was obvious at that time who our friends were and who were members of the "axis of evil" club.  From that September day until now (2009) the march of Islam proves they have no bounds, no honor and no humanity. 
    Our words to our enemies comprise centuries of thought, enlightenment and wisdom born from adversity, given freely to stimulate expression and debate. 
    The words from our enemies are simple, basic and frightening in the extreme.  Convert to Islam, become a second-class citizen (dhimmi) or die. There is no compromise with fundamental (militant) Islam.  Our grave threat comes from a doctrine of intolerance, enslavement and mono-culturalism. It comes from the mouths of our enemies.



   Attacks using small but powerful explosives will remain a tried and true method of creating terror, yet to make a really big impression they had to couple the rhetoric with the blast so, on Oct 23, 1983 homicide bombers ready to die for Allah drove their trucks into the barracks in Beirut and pushed their detonators, murdering 241 American soldiers and civilians.
