Police Plea to Drop the Words Islamist and Islamism [UK]
Anglican Mainstream ^ | 11/16/22 | Religion Media Centre

Posted on 11/17/2022 6:43:39 PM PST by marshmallow

The National Association of Muslim Police is calling on the Home Office and police to drop the terms “Islamist” and “Islamism” because of the direct link to Islamophobia. It says that counter terrorism policing uses these terms to to describe extremist ideology among groups such as Daesh or Al Qaeda. But it commissioned a survey showing 85 per cent of Muslim police respondents and 92 per cent of Muslim community respondents believed that these words had a direct link to Islamophobia and many Muslims feel marginalised, vulnerable and at a higher risk of hate crime and discrimination as a result.

Islamic supremacism, Islamic terrorism, Islamic conquest mindset, Islamic entitlement, Islamic sexual predation.

I am perfectly willing to be more explicit, for the sake of social harmony.

Within the theocracy (NOT a “religion”), one is either a Muslim or an apostate Muslim. It is fundamentalism by design; there are no rightful denominations. The hijackers were, technically, apostate. Yet, all are Muslim. Islam owns this. They never self correct. However, we in the west like to see shades of gray for political convenience. This is why there is still such a thing as the Taliban thriving in Afghanistan. With our open borders, the Muslims of Iran need only conspire with the Muslim Asians in Pakistan to embed a nuclear terror within as few as three or four of our major cities to checkmate our weak leadership.

We'll just call it Islam then. Islamist was just a made up term to artificially separate Muslims who actively want to kill you from those who passively want to see you killed.

There is no Islamophobia. A phobia is an unreasonable or unwarranted fear. It is neither unwarranted nor unreasonable to fear a system that wants you subservient, enslaved or killed if you reject it.
