 | This is America's wake up call Nov 12, 2008 |
Seven years after 9/11, most Americans remain ignorant about the history, nature and intent of Islamic jihad. Even our elected leaders today profess the view of Islam as a peaceful religion. Unfortunately Islam is anything but peaceful. Islam is more of a political ideology than a personal faith, and exists in a fundamental and permanent state of war with non-Islamic civilizations, cultures and individuals. The Islamic holy texts outline a social, governmental and economic system for all mankind in Sharia law. Any cultures and individuals who do not submit to Islamic governance exist in a state of rebellion with Allah and must be forcibly brought into submission.
Everywhere Islam exists it slowly overpowers and oppresses any freedom of speech, thought or action until it is the only dominant ideology. One only has to look to Europe to see it happening there. How long before America follows?
Islam seeks to dominate the world, whether it does it by violence or by stealth. Robert Spencer's new book is a wake up call for America.
| | |  | Rationalizing imperial aggression and a police state. Nov 12, 2008 |
Spencer's jihad against Islam is good for those who profit from a big government daddy state of military complexes and growing budgets for the CIA, DIA, FBI, DHS, NSA and other anti-democratic institutions within our midst. Feeding on the fear and bigotry of a segment of the U.S. population, Spencer is back again to tell them, 'be afraid, be very afraid.' It's a convenient diversion from what Americans should fear, and that is the institutions of empire that have oppressed the Global South Killing Hope: U.S. Military and C.I.A. Interventions Since World War II-Updated Through 2003, and that have robbed this nation of trillions of dollars The Complex: How the Military Invades Our Everyday Lives. U.S. 'soldiers' sitting in computer rooms and directing the Reaper drones, or those wanna-be Rambos who listen to radio hosts like Michael Savage and take programs like '24' seriously will enjoy Spencer's latest attempt to justify American aggression. But thankfully, as the Obama election has shown, most Americans don't buy what Pentagon propagandists and PR firms (like the Rendon Group) are selling and are making daily contributions toward the peaceful kingdom that all the wisdom traditions guide us towards The World's Religions: Our Great Wisdom Traditions.

I have come to acknowledge that although Mr. Spencer does not know how to read or write Arabic nor has he went to any Islamic schools in the Middle East, he really does know a few things about Islam and especially about jihad. I am not about to "smear Mr. Spencer as a racist and Islamophobe" nor will I "trash the book as a pack of lies." I'm just here to make my observations on what Spencer believes is a threat from all Muslims in America and the West. When he started writing this book in January of this year, I thought he would wait until another terrorist attack happened in the U.S. to release it so that he could make as much money as possible, but I guess that an Obama victory is enough to boost sales.
The message that Spencer tries to push on people is that any Muslim is a threat. They all have the intentions of doing jihad and destroying America and killing Americans. He doesn't say it out front, but it is exactly what he implies. He uses the example of civil rights group CAIR and calls them a front organization for terrorism and the "political arm" of radical Islam. While it is true that they once funded Hamas and they occasionally prevent criticism of Islam by political pundits such as Michael Savage and people such as Spencer, but they are not supported by Al-Qaeda nor have they ever had any communication with Osama Bin Laden. Yet the amount of time spent on criticizing them by Spencer would make you believe that Bin Laden engineered every building they have worked in and sends his videos straight to their offices. They supported Hamas which was an organization that was once supported by Israel and now holds a majority of seats in the elected legislative council of the Palestinian National Authority. The Israelis bombed the hell out of the British and killed civilians and those same people, such as Menachem Begin, became leaders of Israel. They are looked upon as heroes. But if an Arab does what a Jewish person does, he is never a hero but always a terrorist. I'm not condoning the killing of children and women and I think it is evil to target and kill innocent people, but I think we need to look at the larger picture before we start to make accusations.
He also uses some instances of Muslims demanding that Sharia law be implemented and said that we will soon have it in Europe and eventually the U.S. He mentions the taxi drivers who refused to pick up drivers with alcohol as an example. While there may have been some were reluctant to pick up people with booze, there were other Muslim drivers who were not so serious about Islamic law being implemented. One driver, Rasheed Gardad, said "If we want to impose our rules and our beliefs, we should stay where we came from." This is probably the opinion of most of the drivers, but Spencer will have you believe that all of those drivers want the Islamic call to prayer put on loud speakers, all women put covered from head to toe, and want every other law in Somalia implemented in the U.S. It's the same tactic used by the Bush Administration to keep their ratings high.
There are terrorists in America, Europe, and all over the globe. The majority of them might even be Muslims. Alright....99.9 % of them are Muslim and that recent bus bombing in Russia was done by Muslims, even though nobody has declared it yet, but we follow the guilty by association theme. The terrorists who call themselves Muslim are about 0.1 % or 1/10th of all Muslims in the world. There are 1.3 to 1.5 billion Muslims in the world. If you make books like this one, then you convince non-educated people to think that the 99.9 percent of Muslims who abhor terrorism are as guilty as the real terrorists in some way, shape, or form. This leads to racism, hate crimes, and the abuse of innocent Muslims. I know Americans do not want innocent people to get hurt and I also know that they want to feel safe from a terrorist attack. I don't think it would be wise to alienate those Muslims who are on the side of the good guys. Robert Spencer wants to alienate them and would be satisfied if all Muslims were eliminated off the face of this Earth because he thinks that the Prophet Muhammad was a terrorist and that the Quran is a book of hate that endorses terrorism. Do you support him?
| | |  | It's Happening Here Nov 9, 2008 |
After seven years, the attacks of Sept. 11, 2001 are fading in the memory of many, and with no further attacks on U.S. soil, it's easy for too many Americans to dismiss the threat of radical Islam as "the politics of fear."
But as the tireless, prolific Robert Spencer details in his latest book, the threat is no less real and isn't only about overt acts of terrorism. It's a decades-long subversive effort, on behalf of a totalitarian ideology, to tear down America and the West from within, using our own freedoms and cultural openness to erode those freedoms and literally subjugate us.
Sounds far-fetched? It's precisely such skepticism and overconfidence that keeps too many of us from acknowledging the imminent danger. Europe is already nearly a lost cause, and it's happening in America as well. It's only a question of whether we'll recognize the threat and push back, or keep giving gradual ground until our way of life is no longer. And that's the value of this book: to educate us about the implacable ideology of our enemy, to expose the various fronts on which this covert battle is being waged - legal, political, educational and cultural - and to offer suggestions as to how to take action.
The book's not long but covers a lot of ground. It's scholarly but a quick and compelling read. I can't recommend it enough, if only because its message is literally critical for America's survival. You'll be disturbed and outraged, but inspired as well.
In the coming months you will see the usual reviews here attempting to smear Mr. Spencer as a racist and "Islamophobe," and to trash the book as a pack of lies - reviews usually from customers who clearly haven't even read the book. One thing you won't see is any such reviews disproving or even addressing his arguments, because the book is thoroughly researched and seamlessly argued, as are all his books. Just remember that 1) Islam isn't a race, and 2) Islamophobia is nothing but trumped-up name-calling designed to silence the critics of radical Islam. We need such courageous critics as Mr. Spencer.
| | |  | Essential Reading for all Americans Nov 7, 2008 |
Once again, Spencer delivers. Never has this topic been more important than now, when we are again becoming complacent about Islam, believing that because we have not been attacked again, we are safe. This is and always has been the most insidious form of jihad against us, and we need to be aware of it, speak out against it, and defeat it. Spencer lays it all out clearly, convincingly, and in his usual scholarly fashion. DO NOT MISS THIS BOOK! Read it, pass it on to your family and friends, send copies of it to your Politicians and law enforcement. | | | Write your own review about Stealth Jihad: How Radical Islam is Subverting America without Guns or Bombs
