Ramadan: When Muslims Revel in Islam’s Violent History
American Thinker.com ^ | April 25, 2022 | Raymond Ibrahim

During the Islamic holy month of Ramadan, Muslims fast, pray, engage in acts of piety and charity, and reminisce over warfare and bloodshed in the name of Islam.

Virtually every Ramadan features various Islamic authorities, personages, and/or institutes reminding Muslims to take pride in and celebrate various historic battles between Muslims and non-Muslims, or “infidels” (as in this hour-long televised special). Among other things, such victories are meant to demonstrate the power, and thus truth, of Islam.

This alone should underscore Islam’s innate militancy in comparison to other religions. It further suggests that Islam is a worldly religion, one that takes pride and finds validation in something as corporeal and temporal as victory in warfare (with all the attendant collection of booty and slaves that entails).

By way of analogy, and to better appreciate Ramadan-time celebrations of jihad, imagine Christians gathered together in church during Christmas or Easter. Then, the officiating pastor or priest eulogizes the bloody military conquests Christians had over non-Christians during Christmas or Easter -- even as the congregants cheer or at least feel deep pride in their Christian faith.

I've spent some time in several moslem nations.Only once did I have a problem...I took a photo of an army truck in an African (moslem) country. Apart from that...no problems worth mentioning.

I'm strongly inclined to believe that many moslems are 9th Century knuckledragging psychopaths...but not all them. Not even a majority of them in fact.

Ramadan... when day is exchanged for night basically. Eat and party all night, sleep all day. Want to buy a car at 3 AM during Ramadan? The dealership will be open so it's no problem!

Of course they do suspend executions during it. They may even grant a few reprieves.
