Winston Churchill’s Comments on Islam
All About Muhammad ^ | 1899 | Winston Churchill

Posted on 01/07/2015 9:18:37 AM PST by Jan_Sobieski

"How dreadful are the curses which Mohammedanism lays on its votaries! Besides the fanatical frenzy, which is as dangerous in a man as hydrophobia in a dog, there is this fearful fatalistic apathy. The effects are apparent in many countries, improvident habits, slovenly systems of agriculture, sluggish methods of commerce and insecurity of property exist wherever the followers of the Prophet rule or live. A degraded sensualism deprives this life of its grace and refinement, the next of its dignity and sanctity. The fact that in Mohammedan law every woman must belong to some man as his absolute property, either as a child, a wife, or a concubine, must delay the final extinction of slavery until the faith of Islam has ceased to be a great power among men.

Individual Moslems may show splendid qualities, but the influence of the religion paralyzes the social development of those who follow it. No stronger retrograde force exists in the world. Far from being moribund, Mohammedanism is a militant and proselytizing faith. It has already spread throughout Central Africa, raising fearless warriors at every step, and were it not that Christianity is sheltered in the strong arms of science, the science against which it (Islam) has vainly struggled, the civilization of modern Europe might fall, as fell the civilization of ancient Rome.”

- Winston Churchill, “The River War”, first edition, Volume II, pages 248-250, Longmans, Green & Company, 1899.

Isaiah 34 describes God's Judgment on the nations of the entire world for their sin and rebellion against his law of life and love (e.g. abortion, murder, sodomy, etc.) But their is a particular people that are judged most severely that the Bible calls, "the people of my curse"...

Isaiah 34:5 - For my sword shall be bathed in heaven: behold, it shall come down upon Idumea, and upon the people of my curse, to judgment.

Edom (Idumea) is a spiritual name given by God to the spiritual descendants of Esau. A great nation that would live by the sword and not be yoked to the God of their brother Jacob...

Genesis 27:40 And by thy sword shalt thou live , and shalt serve thy brother; and it shall come to pass when thou shalt have the dominion, that thou shalt break his yoke from off thy neck.

War with Islam is not if, but when.

And when the when occurs, I will hold liberals fully responsible for the fact that it was put off for so long that we will have lost many more than necessary.

And we will have retribution.

On liberals.

Very strong and pleasurable retribution.

I understand you can now be arrested in England for publicly speaking these words of Winston Churchill.

God help the West! I pray that many “men and women of faith” will be willing to get arrested for the truth!

Even reading Winston Churchill in England will probably get you thrown in jail for a “Hate Crime”....

Various news stories in the past couple weeks claim some of Churchill’s (who was otherwise an atheist) family members were concerned he would convert to Islam & tried to talk him out of it.

I saw that story. I could not reconcile it with the writings of Churchill mentioned up above. I suspect the family members are just making that crap up so as to be treated better after the ongoing Muslim takeover of England has been completed.

Sweden has likewise lost it's f***ing mind.

Well, they certainly planned far ahead as the letter is 100+ years old.

Any parent sending a child over to the land of the Mohammedans would make sure to remind them to stay true to their upbringing...

Churchill lived a long time and changed his mind about a lot of things over the years. Haven’t we all.
