Ex-Muslim to ‘Post’: Trying to teach ‘naive West’ about true nature of Islam
Jerusalem Post ^ | August 19, 2019 | Hannah Gal

Yasmine Mohammed has a story that sounds like an adventure novel. The ex-Muslim, as she calls herself, escaped a forced marriage to an al-Qaeda operative, who was bailed out of prison by Osama bin Laden himself.

The author of Confessions of an Ex-Muslim is now open about her past so she can help others, she told The Jerusalem Post. Mohammed says that she is on a mission to help closeted apostates living in Muslim-majority countries, and to teach the “naive West” about what she calls the true nature of Islam.

The educator and author has become a prominent voice within the growing global ex-Muslim community, speaking extensively to audiences worldwide.

It all started when she was a child.

Mohammed grew up in Canada. Her typical Western childhood was interrupted when her mother married a devout Muslim, and the little girl went from riding her bike and going swimming to wearing a hijab and enduring beatings for not memorizing the Quran.

Years later, under the torment of a horrific forced marriage, she would bravely risk her life to escape in a bid to rescue her daughter from the threat of female genital mutilation.

“I lived every aspect of Islam up to actually being a jihadi,” said Mohammed. “I was the embodiment of an extremist Muslim. To see someone like me change so resolutely to a person who is in many ways the complete antithesis of who I was, speaks to the power of human resilience.”

John Quincy Adams nailed it almost 200 years ago

“In the seventh century of the Christian era, a wandering Arab of the lineage of Hagar, the Egyptian, combining the powers of transcendent genius, with the preternatural energy of a fanatic, and the fraudulent spirit of an impostor, proclaimed himself as a messenger from Heaven, and spread desolation and delusion over an extensive portion of the earth. Adopting from the sublime conception of the Mosaic law, the doctrine of one omnipotent God; he connected indissolubly with it, the audacious falsehood, that he was himself his prophet and apostle. Adopting from the new Revelation of Jesus, the faith and hope of immortal life, and of future retribution, he humbled it to the dust, by adapting all the rewards and sanctions of his religion to the gratification of the sexual passion. He poisoned the sources of human felicity at the fountain, by degrading the condition of the female sex, and the allowance of polygamy; and he declared undistinguishing and exterminating war, as a part of his religion, against all the rest of mankind. THE ESSENCE OF HIS DOCTRINE WAS VIOLENCE AND LUST: TO EXALT THE BRUTAL OVER THE SPIRITUAL PART OF HUMAN NATURE.

Between these two religions, thus contrasted in their characters, a war of twelve hundred years has already raged. That war is yet flagrant; nor can it cease but by the extinction of that imposture, which has been permitted by Providence to prolong the degeneracy of man. While the merciless and dissolute dogmas of the false prophet shall furnish motives to human action, there can never be peace upon earth, and good will towards men. The hand of Ishmael will be against every man, and every man’s hand against him. It is, indeed, amongst the mysterious dealings of God, that this delusion should have been suffered for so many ages, and during so many generations of human kind, to prevail over the doctrines of the meek and peaceful and benevolent Jesus “(Blunt, 1830, 29:269, capitals in orig.).

We saw the “true nature of Islam” on 9-11.

And many times since then.

"The west" already knows about the devil.

He manifests himself as different personalities throughout the ages, including the one known as Muhammed. His teachings are the same, though those teachings are oftentimes disguised as social constructs meant to save one people or another, like socialism/communism.

The devil can make anything sound good and desirable, including Islam.

THe west is not so naïve as its police is not meant to protect the family unit of people but to destroy it with help of looting migrants and MS13 type or other gang Islamic ideologies...

Why can’t liberals understand the danger Islam presents? It boggles the mind how they can overlook Muslims TELLING them they want to kill them and make non-believers into slaves.

Hollywood and movie producers, the press and the flag waving diversity/nulticulturalists , activists and dozens of others preaching tolerance worldwide of what should never be tolerated...which is Islam itself.....As long as Islam continues hatred, violence and death will follow in it’s path regardless of where it puts down roots.

’ They don't understand because they falsely believe they can control Islams tentacles around the world.....they will learn the hard way that Islam waits like a crouching tiger and will one day fully spring into action again and again and again. Wherever and whenever their numbers increase, their agenda has not changed for centuries and never will.

We may not understand all the nuances of Islam theology. They don’t either as evidenced by their killing within their own religion, but like John Quincy Adams, we can see the fruits.

I think she’s referring to people who still don’t get it. There seem to be a lot of naive Liberals who don’t.
