After September 11, 2001, I watched president George W. Bush stand on the smoking ruins of the Twin Towers and declare that "Islam is a religion of peace".
I didn't know anything about Islam then.
I wondered though -- surely many people wondered -- how can the people who flew the planes into these buildings, killing 3,000 innocents, how can they represent a "Religion of peace"? How does that work?
I got me a Koran, and read it cover to cover. This is easier to do than then Bible, for the Koran is quite a slim volume. Since then I've read and reread the Koran (searching in vain for any peaceable content), and read the rest of the main body of Islamic theology: the Hadith, the Sirah of Muhammad, the Umdat of the Sharia.
I still remember clearly my first reading of that Koran. It sent shivers up my spine.
I realised, as I read it, that the 911 perpetrators had simply been following what they were told to do, as good Muslims. What they were told they must do, in the sacred text of their Koran. What the Hadith confirmed they must do. What the Sirah described Muhammad doing himself to be their exemplar of “the perfect man”.
And I thought "If this is what wer're dealing with, we've got a real problem."
Indeed that is what we're dealing with. The ideology as set out, very simply and very clearly, in the Koran and the rest of Trinity of Islam.. The Koran is the “perfect book" given by god, by Allah, via the Angel Gabriel, recited to the "perfect man" Muhammad, an illiterate Arab peasant.
It is that text, that book, that "perfect book" -- full of inconsistencies and arrant nonsense as it is -- which must be followed to the letter, by every good Muslim. That's all the 911 hijackers were doing. They were following their Good Book.
This is indeed what we're dealing with. Thus we are indeed in trouble.
Which I realised way back then. Not earlier than many others, but early enough.
And yet, noone in the west took any notice of the threat. They remember one thing: "Islam is a Religion of Peace".
Well, it's only a religion of peace if everyone submits to it. And not even then, to be fair, for in countries that are fully Islamic, they still have arguments and fights over the different interpretations of their "perfect" religion, the most obvious of which are between Shia and Sunni. But that's a whole 'nother issue. The big issue for Muslims is to make the rest of the world, the non-Muslim world, obey their religion. To turn Dar al-Harb (the non-Islamic world) into the Dar al-Islam.
And that's what they're doing, with remarkable success all over Europe, the UK, and now increasingly Australia and even the United States.
What Visigard24 and the Apostate Prophet talk about in the video above is all true. I'm rather surprised, tbf, at how calmly they talk about it, given that it's happening all around them, right in front of their eyes.
I fear it's too late though. I fear the United Kingdom is doomed. To be a slave state of Islam. To become Islamic. What's happened up today --what you see in Tower Hamlets in the video above -- happened much faster than I thought it could, 16 years ago. Much. I expect the full submission to the Will of Allah, by the whole of the United Kingdom, will also happen faster. Probably in my lifetime. Within ten or twenty years.
And, just to be clear. This is not at all a good thing. Islam is an ideology. It's not "just" a religion. It's a whole of life ideology. And it's not nice. Not at all nice.
Islam is supremacist, it is homophobic, it is misogynist, it is xenophobic, it is intolerant, it is censorious, it is violently suppressive of all religions other than Islam.
It is this horrid ideology that is already in the United Kingdom and is on the way to becoming the dominant, the only ideology, the only "religion" in the UK. This is what is coming to what has been until very recently, the fount of tolerance and democracy in the world. It is coming for the rest of the world too.
Mark my words, ye infidels!
Gloom.
