Washington (AFP) - The self-proclaimed mastermind of the September 11 attacks, Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, has released a manifesto claiming that the Koran forbids the use of violence to spread Islam.

((snip))

In a major departure from his previous position, Mohammed said that "the Holy Koran forbids us to use force as a means of converting!"

Yeah, sure. That’s how Islam was spread in the first place.

When has Islam ever been spread without violence or the threat of violence?

When will I ever learn anything at all about Islam that isn’t isn’t completely disgusting?

But there’s nothing in it to prevent you from killing non-Muslims?

“Each of the 164 Jihad verses in this list was selected based on how clearly and directly it spoke about Jihad, at least when considered in its immediate context. Most of the listed passages mention a military expedition, fighting, or distributing war spoils. Verses NOT generally listed are those that speak about aspects of Jihad other than the raiding, fighting and looting”

Islam is not a religion. It is an ideology, an evil one at that, and the Koran is on the same level of “religion” as the tomes “Das Kapital” or “Mein Kampf”.

There are, of course, those who have built a religion out of each of these sources. All three of these writings have demanded, as the means to spread their message to the unconverted, that the True Believers proceed to kill off all the resistance, without remorse or pity, should they not first accept the obvious superior order that is about to be imposed upon them.

The difference between the Judeo-Christian ethos and these perversions of faith is that if the individual who is confronted with this set of beliefs does not convert, for whatever reason, there is no dictum that the only alternatives are slavery or death.

Politically, it makes sense to say that kind of thing now.

Now the US has, in place, a system to spread islam without violence. Through societal pressure, the courts, and even the President.

A new edit will come forth once enough assimilation has occurred.

“the Holy Koran forbids us to use force as a means of converting!”

I think I read somewhere that it is OK for a Muslim to lie to advance the spread of Islam. Which by the way is what Obama does every day.

Unholy Alliance: Radical Islam and the American Left
by David Horowitz

Amazon Book Review:
"Vastly Illuminating!" September 25, 2004
By Kat Bakhu

"I had long wondered why people on the Left had the propensity to speak more positively about people who would slit their throats than they do about their own country, which affords them more freedom and opportunity than anywhere else. David Horowitz has answered that question thoroughly and convincingly in his Unholy Alliance. Where I felt bewildered and confused, I now feel crystal clear. Unholy Alliance is such a great book.

It begins with the leftist movements at the beginning of the 20th Century, and works its way up to the present day, exploring the anti-American attitude of these movements in detail. Horowitz shows that the enemies of the US back then are largely the same group today, operating under the same misperceptions, making the same mistakes, and pursuing the same impossible utopia.

Individual chapters are included on the Patriot Act (I was persuaded that it is a GOOD thing); the democratic flip-flop on Iraq once G.W. Bush implemented what they agreed with Clinton needed to be done; the driving components of the current anti-war movement; as well as chapters on individual personalities who are major spokespeople of the Left. Horowitz covers a lot of ground, and he covers it concisely and clearly. Unholy Alliance is richly informative without ever being boring or plodding.

This book is so illuminating that I simply cannot do justice to it here. I love people who reason so clearly that they help me get my own reasoning clear. Horowitz is just that type of person! In the terrain of mindless clichés (no-blood-for-oil, etc.), he is a breath of real fresh air."

It’s an odd point in world history. Around 610AD...the most tolerant city in the world...was Mecca. It was a general rule that if you resided in the city-state there....you had to accept various religions...from sacred cows to Christianity, period. You can’t find any other city with this type of arrangement around this time period.

So this one minister showed up and started his own group. Over the next decade...his self-start religion became a problem with the tolerant people and authorities of this Saudi Arabian town. Everything there was based on trade, commerce, and tolerance. Eventually, they said enough, and told him and his group to hit the road. The nearest town around to accept him? Medina. You can figure it’s a eight-day walk to get over there, and every step of the way...this self-start prophet of sorts was grumbling and angry. He’d been kicked out and it just wasn’t right.

It took around six years...but he came back eventually. He and his group started up a robbery scheme on anyone traveling to Mecca. The city authorities eventually decided that a treaty of sorts had to be done....to end this tirade and hit on their commerce trade. So he got invited in and a treaty was signed. The treaty and its positive effect lasted roughly two years....then he came with enough followers and troops to take over Mecca. He killed everyone off of some hit list that he made up.

From that day on....week by week....his thugs moved out and took over other Saudi towns, and moved onto Jordan, Egypt and the entire Middle East. The thugs would eventually be the reason for the Crusades to start, and be the downfall of various ‘safe’ empires in the region.

You can guess the guy’s name.

There’s another piece of this story which isn’t told much.

If you have heard of the black rock in Mecca....it existed prior to Muhammad and Islam. That’s the odd piece of this story.

The Mecca folks dug up this black rock, and made it into a religious pilgrimage prior to 610AD...for 350-odd religions. You could worship just about anything...and come to Mecca’s black rock for a religious experience once a year. Call it a tolerance fest or whatever, but the town made vast amounts of money off this pilgrimage business.

Oddly enough...after all the other religious groups in Mecca were chased out...the black rock status stayed around, and Muhammad made it into a Islam-only status. The town still made money, but strictly off Islamic players. So the most sacred thing in Islamic culture....was a multi-cultural religious rock for 350-odd religions...even sacred cow folks and angry volcano folks. This is the odd part of history that never gets told much. You have to wonder why.

And the Koran allows goat fornicators to lie to advance the cause.

The Koran also enjoins the faithful to make appropriate use of Taquiya.
