Here’s an explanation for Islamic terrorism that’s never proffered:
Insanity and Stupidity
A never-spoken-about problem with Muslims is their inbreeding as a result of their long and deeply-ingrained practice of marrying first cousins — a practice that has been prohibited in the Judeo-Christian tradition since the days of Moses.
More than 7 years ago, the UK’s environment minister Phil Woolas had sounded the alarm about this “very sensitive” issue that is “rarely debated”. Referring to the culture of arranged marriages between cousins in the Muslim immigrant community, Woolas said: “If you have a child with your cousin the likelihood is there’ll be a genetic problem.”
Woolas, whose views are supported by medical experts, said most cases occur in immigrant families from rural Pakistan, where up to half of all marriages involve first cousins. Woolas said: “If you talk to any primary care worker they will tell you that levels of disability among the . . . Pakistani population are higher than the general population. And everybody knows it’s caused by first cousin marriage.”
The problem is made worse by generational inbreeding. As Woolas put it, “Many of the parents themselves and many of the public spokespeople are themselves products of first cousin marriages.” That would explain why research for BBC2’s Newsnight in November 2005 showed that British Pakistanis accounted for 3.4% of all births but 30% of all British children with recessive genetic disorders.
Indeed, an entry in Wikipedia confirms that “Cousin marriages in Muslim majority countries are often preferred and even encouraged in some regions,” and points to the fact that prophet Muhammad himself had married cousins.
But the problem isn’t exclusive to Pakistani Muslims as Woolas seems to imply, but is pandemic among Muslims across the world.
According to Nicolai Sennels, a Danish psychologist who has done extensive research into Muslim inbreeding, close to half of all Muslims in the world are inbred:
- 70% of Pakistanis are inbred. - 67% of Saudi Arabians are inbred. - 64% of those living in Jordan and Kuwait are inbred. - 63% of Sudanese are inbred. - 60% of Iraqis are inbred. - 54% of Muslims in the United Arab Emirates and Qatar are inbred. - 25-30% of those in Turkey are inbred. - In England, at least 55% of Pakistani immigrants are married to their first cousins. - In Denmark the number of inbred Pakistani immigrants is around 40%.
Sennels points out that cousin marriage was sanctioned by Muhammad and has been going on now for 50 generations (1,400 years) in the Muslim world. This practice of inbreeding will never go away in the Muslim world since Muhammad is the ultimate example and authority on all matters, including marriage.
Sennels warns that massive inbreeding in Muslim culture may well have done virtually irreversible damage to the Muslim gene pool, including extensive damage to Muslims’ intelligence, sanity, and health. (Similar effects were seen in the Pharaonic dynasties in ancient Egypt and in the British royal family, where inbreeding was the norm for a significant period of time.)
Below are the consequences of inbreeding:
1. Birth and birth defects:
- 100% increase in the risk of stillbirths. - 50% increase in the risk that the child dies during labor. - The risk of autosomal recessive genetic disorders such as cystic fibrosis and spinal muscular atrophy is 18 times higher. - The risk of death due to malformations is 10 times higher.
2. Physical and mental retardation and illnesses:
- The closer the blood relative, the higher the risk of mental and physical retardation and schizophrenic illness. - The closer the blood relative, the higher the risk of schizophrenic illness, i.e., insanity. - Social abilities develop much slower in inbred babies. An academic paper published in the Indian National Science Academy found that “the onset of various social profiles like visual fixation, social smile, sound seizures, oral expression and hand-grasping are significantly delayed among the new-born inbred babies.” - Research shows that if one’s parents are cousins, intelligence goes down 10-16 IQ points. The risk of having an IQ lower than 70, the official demarcation for being classified as “retarded,” increases by 400% among children of cousin marriages.
All of which would explain the following phenomena among Muslims (Source: Nicolai Sennels):
- 1 out of every 3 Somalis are mentally ill. - More than 40% of the patients in Denmark‘s biggest ward for clinically insane criminals have an immigrant (i.e., Muslim) background. - One-third of all handicapped people in Copenhagen have a “foreign” (i.e., Muslim) background. - In Denmark, psychologist Sennels’ native country, “non-Western” immigrants (who are mainly Muslim) are more than 300% more likely to fail the intelligence test required for entrance into the Danish army. - In Denmark, Muslim children are grossly overrepresented among children with special needs. One-third of the budget for Danish schools is consumed by special education. - 64% of school children with Arabic parents in Denmark are still illiterate after 10 years in the Danish school system. The immigrant drop-out rate in Danish high schools is twice that of the native-born. - The U.S. is not immune. According to Sennels, “One study based on 300,000 Americans shows that the majority of Muslims in the USA have a lower income, are less educated, and have worse jobs than the population as a whole.”
Muslims’ average lower IQ means a lowered ability to enjoy and produce knowledge and abstract thinking, which would explain why:
- The Arab world translates just 330 books every year, about 20% of what Greece alone does. In the last 1,200 years years of Islam, just 100,000 books have been translated into Arabic, about what Spain does in a single year. - 7 out of 10 Turks have never even read a book. Only 9 Muslims had ever won the Nobel Prize, and 5 of those 9 were for the “Peace Prize.” - According to Nature magazine, Muslim countries produce just 10% of the world average when it comes to scientific research (measured by articles per million inhabitants).
Sennels concludes:
The troubling reality being referred to is the widespread practice of Muslim inbreeding and the birth defects and social ills that it spawns.
The tragic effect of the Left’s control of the boundaries of debate is that any discussion about vital issues such as these marks an individual as an “Islamophobe” and a “racist.”
A person who dares to point at the pathology of inbreeding in the Muslim community is accused of whipping up hatred against Muslim people.
But all of this could not be further from the truth. To fight against inbreeding anywhere is to defend humanity and to defend innocent babies from birth defects….
Let us keep in mind that Muslims are the first — though maybe not the biggest — victims of Islam….
In fact, it is the Left’s callous silence on this issue (and on so many others) that exposes who is truly “anti-Muslim.”
Quigley nailed it, didn’t he?
Get real.
Humanity has known about this for more than 2000 years.
BFL
This certainly explains the ease the terrorists have in recruiting suicide bombers.
Bull.
Even the faintest passing acquiesce with the Old Testament warns against incest.
Like John Henry, the Steel Driving Man.
To these animals, Deliverance is a love story.
No you can't. And there is no such place as "remote Appalachia". This is 2015.
That there is funny! I'll use it myself, thanks. I am still chuckling.
You should go get your money back from whomever taught you to read.
I wrote could have. Past tense. As in the 1800’s and early 1900’s before the advent of mechanized transportation.

It explains a lot, but this part is not true.
19 states allow first cousin marriages under any circumstances. (And, no, West Virginia is not one of them). 25 prohibit it, though unlikely that they can enforce those laws given the recent supreme court redefinition of marriage. The remaining six permit it under certain circumstances, five of which are fairly logical:
The problem is less an occasional first cousin marriage, which was not at all uncommon in early America, than generation after generation of the same.
That was one of the side benefits of conquest - sex slaves = new blood.
It is probably also what kept many royal families on top - foreign brides decreasing the inbreeding depression in the clan.
This isn't because the people were weird or anything of the sort, simply because they didn't get around much and the pool of available marriage partners were limited.
If you think of a random first cousin marriage like a pair of dice, your chances of rolling snake eyes in one in 36. However, the offspring produced will include die with maybe two ones on it. Roll those together and the chances go up from 1 in 36 to 1 in 9. They produce die with three ones. Roll two of those together and your chances of a genetic defect go from 1 in 9 to 1 in 4. Those are the type of increasing odds you play with repeating first cousin marriages generation after generation. Not exactly the same odds, of course, but the same concept.
My wife and I discovered we are also distant cousins through different children of a Rev. John Crandall (1618-1676), a contemporary of Roger Williams, founder of the Colony of Rhode Island. Almost any couple in America who has ancestors who were here or arrived before 1670 (about the time the United Kingdom starting sending undesirables to America in large numbers) will have a similar, if not even closer, cousin relationship whether they can document it or not.
Really? I thought it was the Nazis only marrying their race that was the Nazi thing to do, not denouncing it. But because it is a muslim doing it, all of a sudden it is Ok to be Nazi like to breeding?
Dowry practices have a lot to do with it. You have to pay for a bride unless she’s taken in conquest.
Marry a paternal first cousin, and the dowry is grandpa folding his money over and putting it back in his pocket.
Two cousins marrying each other’s sisters means no one has to pay dowry.
And if she marries her paternal cousin, she has a lot of benefits under Shariah law:
* she doesn’t have to veil in front of her father in law or brothers in law
* the father in law is an uncle and thus can escort her and the kids to events when the husband is gone or even refuses
* she probably lives in the same compound with her own parents and siblings and thus some protection because her kin are around her
* if you marry your paternal cousin, there’s a fair chance your brother is still around to offer protection, act as an escort and act as your representative
* if she is divorced, she simply moves back into her parents’ rooms but isn’t sent miles away from the kids, and if the father dies and the kids go to his brothers to raise, they are likely still in the same village
I’ve seen a number of double marriages in the genealogy. There’s the old joke about the guy saying he likes a girl and the brother asking if she has a sister.
If your brother is going off to court a girl, of course you take the other brothers to meet the other sisters.
Or, if the guy likes the girl, introducing his sister to her brother.
But that’s not incest, just really close family ties.
Exactly. We aren’t talking about a one time thing. We are talking about the accumulation of thousands of generations.
Does that include Obama?
