"Our followers 'must live in peace until strong enough to wage jihad'"
"His views explode the myth that the creed of offensive, expansionist jihad represents a distortion of traditional Islamic thinking."
Let's hope. More on yesterday's story about Deobandi control of almost half of the mosques in the United Kingdom, by Andrew Norfolk for the Times Online:
One of the world’s most respected Deobandi scholars believes that aggressive military jihad should be waged by Muslims “to establish the supremacy of Islam” worldwide.
Justice Muhammad Taqi Usmani argues that Muslims should live peacefully in countries such as Britain, where they have the freedom to practise Islam, only until they gain enough power to engage in battle.
His views explode the myth that the creed of offensive, expansionist jihad represents a distortion of traditional Islamic thinking.
Mr Usmani, 64, sat for 20 years as a Sharia judge in Pakistan’s Supreme Court. He is an adviser to several global financial institutions and a regular visitor to Britain. Polite and softly spoken, he revealed to The Times a detailed knowledge of world events and his words, for the most part, were balanced and considered. He agreed that it was wrong to suggest that the entire nonMuslim world was intent on destroying Islam. Yet this is a man who, in his published work, argues the case for Muslims to wage an expansionist war against nonMuslim lands.
Mr Usmani’s justification for aggressive military jihad as a means of establishing global Islamic supremacy is revealed at the climax of his book, Islam and Modernism. The work is a polemic against Islamic modernists who seek to convert the entire Koran into “a poetic and metaphorical book” because, he says, they have been bewitched by Western culture and ideology.
Just one of many pro-jihad books one may find on the shelves of London bookstores.
The final chapter delivers a rebuke to those who believe that only defensive jihad (fighting to defend a Muslim land that is under attack or occupation) is permissible in Islam. He refutes the suggestion that jihad is unlawful against a nonMuslim state that freely permits the preaching of Islam.
For Mr Usmani, “the question is whether aggressive battle is by itself commendable or not”. “If it is, why should the Muslims stop simply because territorial expansion in these days is regarded as bad? And if it is not commendable, but deplorable, why did Islam not stop it in the past?”
He answers his own question thus: “Even in those days ... aggressive jihads were waged ... because it was truly commendable for establishing the grandeur of the religion of Allah.”
These words are not the product of a radical extremist. They come from the pen of one of the most acclaimed scholars in the Deobandi tradition.
A new twist on an old excuse:
Mr Usmani told The Times that Islam and Modernism was an English translation of his original Urdu book, “which at times gives a connotation different from the original”.
Why does this not surprise me?
Any other reason for CCW, as good a measure against the enemies of freedom?

We had better have paramilitary ready to take out all of their camps here in the US... and they have many.

The reverse also holds true. The greatest weakness of Islam is not being able to control the lives of those under its sway. When Muslims are free to be able to choose to NOT be Muslims, they leave Islam in droves.
This also means that the West has a powerful tool to defeat Islam. Just the insistence that they must integrate, obey the secular law, and that they are forbidden to coerce others, Muslim and non-Muslim.
There is no right to form closed ghetto communities, to force marriage, to punish those who do not wish to be punished for violating religious laws and edicts. Nor can adult children be forced to remain in their religion. Divorce can be granted without the consent of both parties, and is indifferent to what their religion allows. And children can be required to learn to the minimum education standards of their State.
Investigations into child abuse for beatings and female circumcision can result in that child or children being removed from their parents home and to be placed in foster care. And there is no requirement that the foster parents be Muslims.
But more than leaving Islam entirely, Muslims who are not coerced into remaining Muslim can challenge anti-social aspects of their religion. They are free to practice their religion as they see fit and still call themselves Muslim.
Granted, society must do much more to protect such “Muslims of conscience” from violence and murder from other Muslims and even from their own families. Eventually, we can hope that an organization of “reformed Islam”, that embraces peace, non-violence and freedom will arise, and will become a sanctuary sect for Muslims rejecting, rejected and threatened by their current sect, ethnic group and family.
Such a sanctuary community will be bitterly and frequently attacked by violent and oppressive Muslims, but that is to be expected. But by its very existence, threatening Islam will itself be threatened in the West.
I’m guessing there’s quite a few Americans who are willing to live in peace too, until these excrement-heads cross the line.
It appears that militant Isalm and Islam are one and the same..
It is now clear, that “Moderate Muslims” are the Trojan Horse of Militant Islam...
Moderate Muslims are simply still holding their grenades with the pins still intact.
Bark Bark goes Pavlov’s dog.
The police will surround and protect their camps.

“Moderate Muslims” = “Nice Nazis”
It is time to outlaw Islam in America.
It is not a religion, and its siren call for the death of infidels is a call for insurrection.
A peaceful society cannot tolerate those who would destroy them.
This abomination is most decidedly not a religion, but an insane, barbaric death cult.
Folks didn't take very kindly to Thuggee - they obliterated it - so why should we have to put up with this pox on civilization, too?
