Radicalization ? Islam 101
Reader comment on item: Guest Column - Radical Islam Exists: Islamism IS the New Totalitarianism

The terrorist events of the past months in Canada, Europe and the Middle East, have prompted the consideration of the "de-radicalzation" of those who have perpetrated these acts of terror as well as those returning from overseas having participated in ISIS. This unrealistic goal of de-radicalization will get absolutely nowhere.

Such attempts to reform Islam will only be misleading to non Muslims. The concept is consistent with "taqiyya' the "sacred deceit"

Islam is based on the example of Mohammed, the messenger of Allah, as recorded in the Sirah [biography] and Hadith [stories/traditions] of Mohammed. Islam holds Mohammed to be the perfect man and the perfect example to follow for all time. Mohammed is Islam. The law of Islam is known as Shariah. It is based on the teachings and examples of Mohammad as articulated in the Koran and in his biographies. Sharia requires no interpretation. Allah is the only lawmaker.

The Koran repeatedly tells Muslims to emulate Mohammed's s behaviour. Most muslims have not read his biographies and rely on the imams for guidance .Imams, by their very position, practice taqiyya ,a component of interaction with the infidel [ [kaffir] . Imams embrace Sharia law which includes beheadings, stoning, cutting off limbs and a pervasive suppression of freedom of thought, religion, assembly and speech.Their denunciation of ISIS barbarism rings hollow.

The horrific savagery of ISIS is not an aberration. It was the basis of Mohammed's twenty seven aggressive military actions. Three of the earliest were against Jewish tribes of Arabia. Similar savagery was exacted on the the last Jewish tribe of Medina.."In carrying out a ruling that Allah would approve of", the 800 Jewish men were forced to dig their own graves. Mohammed and his 12 year old bride Aisha then sat and watched all day and into the night as they were beheaded. Any boy that did not have pubic hair was 'spared' and raised as a Muslim. The spoils were divided up, 'the messenger of Allah" taking his usual 20 %. He also took the most beautiful of the Jewish women, having just killed her husband, father and all male relatives, as his sex-slave. ISIS is simply following their mentor.

Islam divides the world into two: dar al harb [the land of war i.e., not under Sharia ] and dar al islam. [the land of Islam]. This division is a key component of Islam today. People divided into us and them.The nonbelievers and the believers.

Jihad can be any action that advances Islam and weakens the non believers (kaffirs, infidels). Jihad is the method of expanding Islamic territory with the goal of a universal law, called a caliphate. Country borders are no longer recognized. The method is sanctioned by Allah and is always justified. There are no limitations to the methods of jihad. The ends justify any means, no matter how shocking.

There is no other major religious group that orders its followers as a religious duty, to create a government that follows its own system of sharia law.

Christian and Jewish martyrs were murdered because of their religion.

ISIS in all its savagery and sadism, practices true Islam as defined by Mohammed's actions. It sanctifies murder, theft and slavery in the name of Allah. Islamic martyrs kill others in the furtherance of their beliefs. Those who die in their jihad against nonbelievers enter Paradise.

No religion condones the killing of innocents. What is the definiton of "innocent"? The very existence of nonbelievers, the kaffirs, render them

guilty and a focus of jihad, either by stealth or acts of war. All non muslims living in a non islamic state are enemies. So deceiving westerners is totally acceptable. It is encouraged through takiyya to meet the goal, the spread of Islam .

Tayyip Erdogan P.M. of Turkey states "there is no such thing as moderate islam. There is only Islam."

We cannot say that we have not been warned......
