ONE CRUCIAL AREA WHEREIN ISLAM IS MORE HIGHLY EVOLVED THAN THE LIBERAL WEST

As the son of a sea captain who was fascinated by the Islamic World as a result of his numerous working visits throughout it, I grew up learning about that great religion. In my own days as a sailor I also visited numerous Islamic lands and experienced much of its’ rich culture including prayerfully kneeling in several great mosques.

My favorite Islamic personality that emerged from my studies of Islamic history is Suleiman the Magnificent, the greatest Osmanli Sultan excepting perhaps Mehmet the Conqueror. Islam divides its morality in two parts. The first is within the LANDS OF SUBMISSION wherein Allah the merciful requires a strict and forgiving fairness in all dealings that was quite unique in the world. The second is everywhere else which is considered the LANDS OF WAR; wherein anything goes.

Within his dominions Suleiman was truly magnificent. For example, if a Christian farmer approached him with a complaint while he was marching to war amidst his armies he felt duty bound to hear him out and appoint an official to look into it and correct any wrongs committed, even by his own Islamic officials. In this light, can anyone really be surprised by the long lasting conversion of over a six of our planets population? Their culture fostered arts and sciences and the recently renamed Istanbul was a truly great center of civilization.

However, all was different in the Lands of War. A similar Christian farmer in, say Hungary, could be raped, tortured and horribly murdered along with his wife and children and that was no moral problem to Suleiman or Islam.

Again, it doesn’t take much imagination to understand the success and sustainability of Islam. Unfortunately for us, my friends, we live in the Lands of War. Osama bin Laden, his followers and allies are committed to changing that. They operate exactly in the mainstream of Islamic law, history and tradition as they are committed to converting us or killing us. And they don’t care which.

Again, unfortunately for us, the Liberal West is morally devolving by eliminating the common sense moral duality of Peacetime Morality and Wartime Morality. This leaves us very vulnerable to defeat and Islamization over the next century or two. Make no mistake, ALL MUSLIMS ARE VULNERABLE TO THE APPEAL OF THE FUNDAMENTALIST ISLAMISTS.

Organized Christianity was morally inferior in many ways to Islam until the Reformation. The task before us today is to bring about an Islamic Reformation by totally defeating the Islamists and their supporters. The way things look today, I am very concerned that we will eventually lose this war and that my Granddaughters or Great Granddaughters will be forced to wear burkas and be denied any real rights or educational opportunities.

The cemeteries of this planet are full of people who underestimated the power of Islam.
