A challenge – to confront the Koran
Andrew Bolt
The Left has a deceptive new slogan: the Islamic State is to Islam what the Nazis were to Christianity.
Here’s a more accurate slogan, better capturing the ambiguity:
The Islamic State is to Islam what Mao, Pol Pot and Stalin were to socialism.
UPDATE
Tanveer Ahmed, himself of Muslim background, says Muslims must confront Islam’s more violent exhortations:
THOSE Muslims who cry Islamophobia repeatedly when asked about terrorism and Islam do themselves a disservice by not Âengaging with the ideas inherent in Islam that might lend themselves to actions of violent Âconfrontation.
Islamophobia is becoming its own industry with university departments and experts, an extension of the leftist view that an underbelly of racism is the root cause of everything from terrorism to our border protection policies.
Those are Islamophiliacs, not ‘Islamophobes’. These are the people who’d have us believe there is something wrong with people opposing the blood-cult of Islam.
The almost universal action of religious Muslims is to assert that Islam has nothing to do with terrorism, as if the actions of ÂIslamic State, the Taliban, al-Qa’ida, Boko Haram, just to name some of the best-known but tiny proportion of modern Islamists, arose out of thin air.
The undercurrent of this is centuries of subjugation and failure within the Arab world, something for which many Muslims blame only the West and its interventions, conveniently avoiding the sclerotic decay inherent in the countries and region.
Islam is primarily a religion of conquest. The fact the vast majority of Muslims are peace loving and committed to Australia is not because of Islam but despite it. They have too much to lose to interpret Islam too literally. But that does not mean there are not thousands of Muslims from around the world, including Australia, who may not take such a liberal view.
Yes, Islam is an ideology of conquest. But there is no evidence whatsoever that the vast majority of Muslims are “peace loving  and committed to Australia”.
On the contrary, there is mounting evidence that Muslims are an unbearable burden on any infidel nation state.
Therefore:
Stop, for god’s sake stop, importing trouble—and Muslim immigrants, as a whole, necessarily mean trouble, in all lands where the political and legal institutions, and social arrangements, are flatly contradicted by the Shari’a. Muslims are obligated to change or tear down those institutions, in order to remove all “obstacles to Islam.” It is not special or individual malice that prompts that attitude. That is their duty, a central duty. Why not come to fully and soberly understand that duty, and out of a minimal sense of self-preservation, cease to import those into our lands (America, Canada, Great Britain, France, Germany, Italy, the Netherlands, Spain, Belgium, Denmark, Norway, Sweden, Australia, and every other place that has so generously admitted, under a twisted definition of “refugees,” people who do not, and can not, wish our ways or institutions or constitutions well.
