Bracken: Tet, Take Two – Islam’s 2016 European Offensive

As we roll into the New Year, we are witnessing the prelude to the culmination of a titanic struggle between three great actors. Three great social forces are now set in motion for a 2016 showdown and collision that will, in historical terms, be on par with the First and Second World Wars.

Two of these great social forces are currently allied in a de facto coalition against the third. They have forged an unwritten agreement to jointly murder the weakest of the three forces while it is in their combined power to do so. One of these two social forces would be content to share totalitarian control over large swaths of the globe with the other remaining social force. One of these social forces will never be satisfied until it achieves complete domination of the entire planet. So what are these three great social forces? They are Islam, international socialism, and nationalism. Allow me to explain the salient aspects of each, and how they relate to the coming 2016 cataclysm.

1. ISLAM

Islam is similar to a self-replicating supercomputer virus. It is a hydra-headed monster, designed by its creators to be an unstoppable formula for global conquest. It's almost impossible to eradicate, because it has no central brain or control center. Islam is like a starfish: when you cut off a limb, another grows to replace it. The names of the Muslim leaders, and the names of their Islamic groups, are transitory and ultimately unimportant. Osama Bin Laden and Al Qaeda are succeeded by Al-Baghdadi and the Islamic State, but they will all pass from the scene and be replaced by others. While Muslim leaders and regimes have come and gone, Islam itself has remained steadfastly at war with the non-Muslim world for 1,400 years.

Travis sums up the driving force behind Islamic jihad against their neighbors:

“The motivation lies within the words of the Koran and Hadith. Most simply distilled, in the earthly realm, these Islamic texts offer immoral men sanction for thrill-killing, looting, raping, and capturing infidel slaves, and when these jihadists are killed, they are promised a perpetual orgy with seventy-two nubile virgin slave girls in Mohammed’s sick, evil and perverted Muslim paradise. “

Thx DW. I did a search but turned up nothing. I now see that Matt's name in the title is what made the search unsuccessful.

That said, it's such a good article that it merits a repost.

China is the wild card; communist and yet still fiercely nationalistic, or “culturalistic” and the Chinese primarily identify as Chinese. They are “internationalist” only to the extent an international settlement favors Chinese interests.

And right now, they have the wealth and industrial power. While they have no love for Islamists (they have their own Muslim problem in Xinjiang), they will play this game to their own ends.

Great stuff, Matt. There is another historical trend that may be applicable to this. That is the inherently fissiparous nature of Islam itself: there must be a Caliph, but who? Sunni or Shi'a or someone with military force sufficient to cow both, such as the Mongols or later, the Ottoman Turks (who solved the problem by stating that it didn't matter so long as they were Sultans). Islam appears formless only at the moment; even under a case of successful world conquest that centrifugal nature would endure.

That may not matter if the rest of us are dead or converted. Or it may matter a great deal if we aren't. I suspect that international socialism will find that it needs foreign troops to close the case in the United States, and the troops of international Islam strike me as the likeliest source. That would not be a terror infiltration, however, and I don't see a straight takeover holding the ghost of a chance. America remains a rock in the road of both totalitarian ambitions. May it always remain so.

I wonder if this 2016 “Tet Offensive” could have been timed to coincide with our 2016 Presidential Election?
