All seemingly civilized Mooozlims melt down eventfully and show their true Jihad warrior nature. Adherence to the worst false prophet bar none. This is why Claude Levi Strauss (famous anthropologist) called Islam a barracks religion

(OK there might be a few Mulsim exceptions)

RALPH PETERS: THE ARAB WORLD’S ENDLESS FAILURES

January 26th, 2012

http://www.familysecuritymatters.org/publications/id.11301/pub_detail.asp

How can U.S conservatives impute overpowering strength to a religion-crippled civilization that not only cannot build a competitive automobile, but can’t even produce a competitive bicycle?

Can American conservatism be saved from hysterical fear-mongers? My image of a true conservative is of a bold, honorable, responsible citizen, with just a touch of the swashbuckler. But that image is fading as so many conservatives insist on seeing bogeymen under every bed, cot, sleeping bag and beach chair. Supposed Mayan predictions of the end of the world in 2012 seem mild compared to the daily onslaught of warnings from my fellow conservatives that everything just sucks and America’s plunging into a black hole. And of all the subjects that excite exaggerated fears, terror of Islam takes the moldy cake.
Let me be clear: I agree with the anthropologist Claude Levi-Strauss (no conservative, that boy) who characterized Islam as “a barracks religion” that stymied cultural growth. Nor do I have the least sympathy with Islam’s apologists, subversives or litigious jerks. But let’s get a grip, folks. Far from taking over the world and making obese Americans stop drooling over internet porn, Islam is pathetically weak, plagued by myriad failures and, especially in the case of Arab Islam, unable to compete successfully in any sphere of organized human endeavor. The Arabs are even flopping at terrorism, which a decade ago, was their sole growth industry: Since 9/11, we’ve been terrorizing the terrorists. The terrorist response? Slaughter their fellow Muslims by the tens of thousands.
How can American conservatives impute overpowering strength to a religion-crippled civilization that, in the 21st century, not only cannot build a competitive automobile, but can’t even produce a competitive bicycle? If I were to list the top security threats to the United States of America, Islamist terrorism might barely squeeze into the top ten, while Islam itself wouldn’t make the top 100. Militant Islam is an ugly annoyance, but its victims, here and abroad, are primarily Muslims (for the record, my top five security threats, in order of gravity, are obesity, lack of personal responsibility, China’s economic war against us, Iran’s drive for nuclear hegemony in the Persian Gulf, and narco-trafficking).

And yet they yield great power in Europe, Michigan, and Wisconsin.
