PASSING THE TORCH TO GEERT

A FAIRLY NEW WEBSITE called SITAmnesty has popped into place and is sprinting formidably to get out the word about Islamic jihad, the raw patriotism of Winston Churchill in the past, and not least, the Dutch parliamentarian Geert Wilders who appears to have inherited the mantle of the former and is today warning us of the true historical nature of our pernicious enemies in the war at hand. Take notice young sprigs. Inform yourselves.

From the powerful pen of the great British statesman, Sir Winston Churchill we learn...

“How dreadful are the curses which Mohammedanism lays on its votaries! Besides the fanatical frenzy, which is as dangerous in a man as hydrophobia in a dog, there is this fearful fatalistic apathy. The effects are apparent in many countries. Improvident habits, slovenly systems of agriculture, sluggish methods of commerce, and insecurity of property exist wherever the followers of the Prophet rule or live.

A degraded sensualism deprives this life of its grace and refinement; the next of its dignity and sanctity.
The fact that in Mohammedan law every woman must belong to some man as his absolute property, either as a child, a wife, or a concubine must delay the final extinction of slavery until the faith of Islam has ceased to be a great power among men.
Individual Muslims may show splendid qualities. Thousands become the brave and loyal soldiers of the Queen; all know how to die; but the influence of the religion paralyses the social development of those who follow it.

No stronger retrograde force exists in the world.

Far from being moribund, Islam is a militant and proselytizing faith. It has already spread throughout Central Africa, raising fearless warriors at every step; and were it not that Christianity is sheltered in the strong arms of science—the science against which it had vainly struggled—the civilisation of modern Europe might fall, as fell the civilisation of ancient Rome.”

The Nazi leader Heinrich Himmler had this to say about Islam :

“Muslims responded to the call of Muslim leaders and joined our side because of their hatred of our joint Jewish-English-Bolshevik enemies, and because of their belief and respect for, above all—Our Fuehrer.”

In his memoirs Albert Speer wrote about Hitler’s enamour of Islam, reporting a discussion which captures Hitler’s effusive praise for Islam :

“…a religion that believed in spreading the faith by the sword and subjugating all nations to that faith. Such a creed was perfectly suited to the Germanic temperament.”

Hitler, according to Speer’s account, repeatedly expressed the conviction that:

“The Mohammedan religion…would have been much more compatible to us than Christianity. Why did it have to be Christianity with its meekness and flabbiness?”

Sir Winston Churchill likened Islamist terrorism to Nazism :

“In truth though, just as the British stoicism recalls the same from 65 years ago, so too, there is a deep and instructive similarity between the Nazis and the Islamic-fascist forces that attacked then and attack today. The fact of the matter is that even more important than invoking the famous British “stiff upper lip,” to fight this current war to victory requires understanding and accepting the similarities between the Nazis and the Arab-Islamic terrorist armies.”

Geert Wilders, among many others, likened the Koran to Mein Kampf:

Jihad means “personal(supposedly) struggle”
Mein Kampf means “my struggle”

During WWII, we might remind ourselves, Muslims themselves, when there was completely free to make their own choice, chose the Nazi side.

And lastly, this I have found:

Arial Sharon is one of my heroes and I am not a Jew or an Israeli. I simply read history and am very impressed with this man’s courage, accomplishments, and values.

However, I do understand the bitter hatred felt toward him. You can expect that anytime there is something truly good, praiseworthy, or of good report in the world—evil will attempt to poison and brainwash people against it. All one needs do is read ordinary grade-school books used to teach the young in the Arab states. Israel and America are portrayed as little Satan and big Satan—rather than the light and hope that they have undisputedly represented to so many.

Freedom inevitably gathers evil to oppose it—uncovering an eternal truth: There is opposition in all things. Choose ye this day whom you will serve . . . Freedom or Tyranny.

OBSESSION IS NOT JUST A FILM

Sharia Law offers public flogging. Resolutely unAmerican, unWestern, uncivilized.

ON THE UPROAR of this short documentary called Obsession which was recently inserted into newspapers distributed primarily in swing states—Florida, Pennsylvania, Missouri, Ohio, Michigan—and the attached card mentions the upcoming elections.

Fear tactic? Yes. Blatantly false? Not on your life.

The documentary with real clips and honest reportage makes this case: That a current tendency in Islam regards the West, especially the United States and Israel, as enemies to be destroyed and that achieving personal annihilation in forwarding that goal—to die in jihad—is a good and holy thing. This tendency is far from being a majority view, and yet neither is it suppressed; in fact, it is supported by regimes that allocate television airtime and publish schoolbooks.

We must be keen to note that 9-11, the Madrid bombing, the London bombing, the Beslan slaughter, the Bali slaughter and dozens of other outrages were not merely linked to terrorism but were expressly and explicitly motivated by a particular kind of Islam. Let's cut the crap. That isn't an anti-Muslim point; it is an anti-jihad one, and the odd fact that it has become impolitic in some circles even to discuss the nature of this threat is exactly why it's worth airing in this or any political season.

The real scandal is that this film has been available and shown for two years now, but has been barred from wider release in part for political reasons, in part because of the kind of spinelessness displayed by one North Carolina newspaper publisher, at the Greensboro News & Record, who refused the insert as it was "divisive" and "serves no educational purpose."

"People don't want to feel this is part of a single threat," says Winston Churchill biographer Sir Martin Gilbert tells the documentary interviewer, "because if you come to that conclusion—and I'm sure it's the true conclusion—then you have to do something about it."

DON"T BE FOOLED BY DREAMERS

COMBINE RELIGION, RACE, the Cold War, America's enemies, and a history of colonialism, and you've got a breeding ground for the most virulent strains of politically correct mythology, distortions, and cover-ups. If you've spent more time in front of the TV watching reruns, and still haven't got a clue about what's going on in the mother of all global hotspots, then you need to take a stroll through The Politically Incorrect Guide to the Middle East by Martin Sieff. In his book you'll learn:

Why the Arab-Israeli conflict today isn't about borders—and never was

Why Britain's post-World War I Middle East policy was a comedy of errors and incompetence that soon escalated into tragedy

Déjà vu: how the Shiites of Iraq led a ferocious nationalist uprising against an English speaking superpower that wanted to bring Western-style democracy to their country—in 1920

How the Shah of Iran's dependence on the U.S. and his honeymoon with Israel in the 1950s and 1960s deluded both countries into believing that Iran was inherently moderate, anti-Arab and pro-Western—and why they couldn't have been more wrong

Why anti-American and anti-Israeli popular sentiment grew dramatically during the Shah's rule—preparing the way for Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini's Islamic revolution

How Britain's hand-picked Muslim leader in Palestine later gave Hitler's Holocaust his enthusiastic support.

How Bosnian Muslims volunteered to guard the death trains that carried thousands of Balkan Jews to Auschwitz

Why disbanding Saddam's old, much-feared army structure was another mistake

How Washington policymakers obsessed with crafting Iraqi democracy ignored the more-pressing issues of guaranteeing law and order and producing enough food, heating fuel, gasoline and other necessities

How, in an eerie foreshadowing of today's policies, President Carter was so obsessed with fostering democracy and human rights in Iran that he left the way open for Khomeini to seize power

How the Saudis even secretly but strongly cooperated with Israel against their common foes of al-Qaeda, Islamic extremists and the new radical leadership of Iran
