Buchanan: The Dark Side of Diversity
Human Events ^ | April 26, 2013 | Patrick J. Buchanan

Posted on 04/26/2013 5:54:02 PM PDT by 2ndDivisionVet

“I do not know the method of drawing up an indictment against a whole people,” said Edmund Burke of the rebellious Americans.

The same holds true of Islam, the majority faith of 49 nations from Morocco to Indonesia, a religion that 1.6 billion people profess.

Yet, some assertions appear true.

Islam is growing in militancy and intolerance, evolving again into a fighting faith, and spreading not only through proselytizing, but violence.

How to justify the charge of intolerance?

The Taliban blew up the Bamiyan Buddhas. The Sufi shrines of Timbuktu were blown up by Ansar Dine. In Saudi Arabia, Iran and Afghanistan, Christian converts face the death sentence.

In Nigeria, the Boko Haram attacks churches and kills Christians, as in Ethiopia and the Sudan, where the south seceded over the persecution.

Egyptian Copts are under siege. Assyrian and Chaldean Christians in Iraq have seen churches pillaged, priests murdered. In Indonesia, churches are being shut on the demand of Islamists. Sharia law is being demanded by militants across the Middle East, as Christianity is exterminated in its cradle.

Has Islam become again a fighting faith?

Chechnya, Dagestan and Ingushetia are the sites of Islamist uprisings using terror to rip these statelets from Russia. Muslim Uighurs are fighting to tear off a chunk of China and create an East Turkestan. Muslim Malays in south Thailand have fought a decade-long war of secession. Albania has acquired two sister Muslim states in Europe, Bosnia and Kosovo, both born in blood. “Islam has bloody borders,” wrote the late Samuel Huntington. They are bloodier today.....

I concur.

Doubting Dhimmis need to review Stephen Coughlin's briefings:

The destruction of Mecca is barely a blip in your plan. It will not work, anymore than destroying any other religious center will destroy any religion. Human nature does not work that way.

Subjugating Muslim lands and peoples is an entirely different concept and probably wasteful, but a far different project than destroying Mecca.

I’m no fan of Islam, it is indeed built on flawed foundations, however eradicating it from the World is more than a bridge too far for America. Destroying all of radical Islam and insisting that any Islamic nation either behave or face the consequences is a more attainable goal but still quite a reach.

In any event nothing like this will happen with democrats in the White House and probably not with republicans there.

I’m sorry but people who think Islamists will give up because you nuke their holy places, are simply being idiotic. They not only wouldn’t, there is no reason to think they would. It’s absurd.

I can think of one --- reason.

It might get their attention if it is unequivocally clear that it is only a first step. How many steps follow is entirely up to them.

I like to be an optimist, even though I was tempted to say 'they are not suicidal,' and then I had to laugh.

I am sorry to hear about your advancing senility or your serious case of cognitive dissonance.

Any serious study of historical islam would convince the most retarded delusional imbecile (or infant) that muslims are not now, nor have ever been ruled by what civilized modern adults can grasp as 'human nature.'

They are not referred to as 'koranimals' by accident.

“The destruction of Mecca is barely a blip in your plan. It will not work, anymore than destroying any other religious center will destroy any religion. Human nature does not work that way.”

The above is simply not historically demonstrated. As a matter of fact, Muslims do destroy other religious buildings, symbols, burn other religious books, kill off other religious leaders, kill off those who do not submit to Islam.

The success of the spread of Islam by the sword is proof my proposed destruction of Islam WOULD succeed.

Want proof from out time and in our America?

Note that the Muslims always build a Mosque on the site of what they call a victory over the “kufir” (the unclean who refuse to submit to Islam).

Now, think about the Victory Mosque at the 9/11 site!

They won a great victory, they built a Mosque to celebrate that victory.

Note carefully: Both American citizens and our politicians allowed it to be built.

Now can you understand why out only choice, forced upon us by the nature of Islam is: “ISLAM DELENDA EST”?

I’d settle for just ending, and actually prohibiting Muslim immigration. The US and the rest of the Western World should do this.

There’s not much they can do to us if we don’t allow them to enter in the first place.

But Buchanan is right about the most important part; the need to end Muslim immigration.

“Nuke it - Islam and Allah will thus be shown to be powerless to prevent the destruction of its “holy place/holy rock.”

It really would be just that easy. Vaporize that stupid rock and the whole evil edifice would collapse.

Most in the West won’t believe it because they can’t imagine a major world religion being contingent on a rock. An idol. But it is.

We were invited. The Saudis, defenders of the holy shrines of Mecca and Medina, invited the U.S. to base in Saudi Arabia in order to defend the kingdom against the predations of Saddam Hussein.

True - but just because someone invites use doesn't mean we have to go. I myself have had to live for over 40 years before I discovered the basic truth that I do not have any obligation to associate with people I find objectionable.

Especially Jewish ones would be more accurate.

The recent Salon article by the David Sirota (Jew and former AIPAC officer) who hoped the Boston bombings could be pinned on a White Christian is a good example (of many more I could post). They have become quite open about their hatred of White Christians.

Fine and dandy.

But how would you have felt about the truth of a malignant dictator, Saddam Hussein, controlling 50% of the world's oil production?

Would that not be "objectionable"?
