The Islamic Golden Rule: A Formula For Totalitarianism

The Muslims Make the Rules

Islam twists everything up into surreal webs of logic from which no man can escape with his soul.

Observe, the Islamic Golden Rule:

In his Last Sermon, the Prophet Muhammad admonished believers:

"Hurt no one so that no one may hurt you." [Pastorius note: This is not moral thinking. Instead, it is just practical advice based upon the idea of reciprocity.]

Jeffrey Wattles holds that the ethic of reciprocity appears in the following statements attributed to Muhammad:

[20] “Woe to those . . . who, when they have to receive by measure from men, exact full measure, but when they have to give by measure or weight to men, give less than due”

[21] The Qur'an commends "those who show their affection to such as came to them for refuge and entertain no desire in their hearts for things given to the (latter), but give them preference over themselves"

[22] “None of you [truly] believes until he wishes for his brother what he wishes for himself.”

[23] "Seek for mankind that of which you are desirous for yourself, that you may be a believer; treat well as a neighbor the one who lives near you, that you may be a Muslim [one who submits to God]."

[24] “That which you want for yourself, seek for mankind.”

[24] "The most righteous of men is the one who is glad that men should have what is pleasing to himself, and who dislikes for them what is for him disagreeable."

In other words, make a rule, for all mankind, of whatever you desire for yourself.

Does that sound familiar? It ought to, as it is the basic idea of leftism as well.

The Islamic Golden Rule is not anything like the Judeo-Christian Golden Rule, which calls for us to treat each other as we would want to be treated.

Instead, the Islamic Golden Rule is a formula for totalitarianism.

Islam is not a religion exhorting its followers on to be better people. It is, instead, a totalitarian ideology, pure and simple.

KORAN DESTROYED BY BOMB IN BAGHDAD!

BBC (HAT TIP SONDRAK):

Iraqis recover charred pages of the Koran after a fire swept through a Baghdad market following a roadside bomb.

• IF A USA BOMB HAD DONE THIS, IT WOULD HAVE TRIGGERED WORLDWIDE DEMONSTRATIONS.

• WHY NONE WHEN IT'S DONE BY JIHADISTS?

HYPOCRISY AND FEAR.

ALL THE PEOPLE OPPOSED TO OUR NOBLE MISSION IN IRAQ ARE EITHER HYPOCRITES, COWARDS - OR THE ENEMY.

ISLAM AND JIHAD: SUBMISSION, COERCION, FREE WILL AND GOD

JAWA:

People keep asking me "Why don't the so-called "moderate Muslims" speak out against terrorism?"

There are a number of ways one could explain this, and that's a good part of what we do here at The Jawa Report - try to make sense of an alien culture.

But some folks aren't getting the message, so I feel I must break this down to it's lowest common denominator.

This is why more Muslims do not speak out against terrorism:

THE WORD 'ISLAM' MEANS 'SUBMISSION'

The entire culture of Islam is geared towards accepting the "word of Allah" without question, not making waves and not using critical thinking skills.

What else would you expect other than a society of blindly devoted sheep?

I think Islam is not about submission - as Muslims claim; it is about COERCION.

And the fact that Muslims use coercion proves it is a false creed.

HERE'S WHY:

If one believes that God is omniscient and omnipotent - and created the universe, then one must believe He gave us Free Will - the power to choose. If God had wanted us to be pre-wired for Islam or any other particular sect, then God could have made it as instinctual as the desire for water when we feel thirst, or food when we are hungry, or flight for a bird and swimming for a fish.

But God created humans to have Free Will, to be free to choose; He must want it that way.

And that means we must be free to choose less good things and be free to fail - to come up short.

Performing rituals without the necessary feelings, intentions and wishes is false, too. God mustn't want that, either. God only wants sincere worship. Because if God is omniscient, He knows when you're trying to fool him. Coerced worship is insincere, too - therefore it is also false, and unacceptable to God.

Therefore, those who practice and preach COERCION in religious matters - who seek to use power to force people to perform or accept one way of worshiping over another - are USURPING God, and undermining His will.

Islam is based on coercion; therefore it is false. It has always been based on coercion - on JIHAD; that's how it was spread by Mohamed, and how it has spread since.

Islam is all about Jihad and dhimmitude: coercion and forced submission; therefore, Islam goes against God.

WORSHIP ACCORDINGLY.

OIC TARGETS FREE SPEECH IN THE WEST

• THE OIC IS A FORCE FOR EVIL.

• IF THEY WERE A FORCE FOR GOOD, THEN THEY'D ATTACK THE JIHADO-TERRORISTS AS DEFAMERS OF ISLAM, INSTEAD OF ATTACKING THOSE WHO VERBALLY AND PICTORIALLY ATTACK JIHADO-TERROR.

WATCH THIS HOT AIR/JIHAD WATCH VIDEO. NOW.

COMPARING CHRISTIAN AND MUSLIM NOTIONS OF GETTING INTO HEAVEN

• Christians think that Jesus died so that they might get into Heaven.

• Muslims think that if they murder infidels, then Allah will send them to Heaven - where they'll get 72 virgins.

There's a big difference there.

Yet somehow - to many people, Islam is still a "religion of peace."

Yeah. Sure.

For more, Google Wafa Sultan, Ayaan Hirsi Ali, and Magdi Allam. And Ibn Warraq. THEY ALSO KNOW THE TRUTH ABOUT ISLAM.

ASHURA & ROPMA - WARNING: LINK TO GRAPHIC PICTURES OF MUSLIM RELIGIOUS RITUAL

SICK.

Things like this and islamo-misogyny - (and NOT poverty, disillusionment with modernity, or Zionism/colonialism/US hegemony) - are what make Muslims prime candidates for genocidal jihad.

MORE PROOF OF ISLAMO-SOCIOPATHY

JIHAD WATCH:

After not showing it for a year, Palestinian Authority TV has resumed regular broadcasts of the video above, showing a young woman being cruelly shot down by wicked Zionist soldiers, being transformed into a heavenly maiden in the company of other equally beautiful young women, and ultimately greeting a new shahid after he, too, is shot down by the vicious Israelis. Now, why would they be showing this so often these days?

RTWT!

HERE'S THE VIDEO:

• But she doesn't wear a hijab!!!!!!!
• And he seems to martyr himself for her, not allah!!!!!!
• And where are the other 71 virgins!!!!!

I am so so so so SO so so confused. NO I'M NOT: THEY ARE!

The only common thread which runs through fatah and hamas and al qaeda, the taliban, iran and syria - et al, you know who I mean... - is their hatred of infidels and obsessions with death and subjugated women.

Islam is an organized form of mass sociopathy which produces genocidal maniacs. And practices human sacrifice.

Let's give them a few more states!

AND 8 BILLION BUCKS!

Sheesh.

Muslim Fanatics Obsessive Suppression Of Women

The Islamist war on Muslim women:

By Western standards, the subjugation of women by Muslim fanatics, and the sometimes pathological Islamist obsession with female sexuality, are unthinkable. Time and again they lead to shocking acts of violence and depravity:

In Pakistan, a tribal council ordered a woman to be gang-raped as punishment for her brother's supposed liaison with a woman from another tribe.

In San Francisco, a young Muslim woman was shot dead after she uncovered her hair and put on makeup in order to be a maid of honor at a friend's wedding.

In Tehran, a father beheaded his 7-year-old daughter because he suspected that she had been raped; he said he acted "to defend my honor, fame, and dignity."

In Saudi Arabia, the Islamic police prevented schoolgirls from leaving a burning building because they were not wearing headscarves and abayas; 15 of the girls died in the inferno.

The president of Cairo's Al-Azhar University, a renowned center of Islamic learning, described the proper method of wife-beating in a television interview: "It's not really beating," Sheikh Ahmad Al-Tayyeb explained on Egyptian television. "It's more like punching."

When the Taliban seized control of Afghanistan in 1996, the repression of women was among their first priorities. They issued a decree forbidding women to leave their homes, with the result that work and schooling for women came to a halt, destroying the country's healthcare system, civil service, and elementary education.

"Forty percent of the doctors, half of the government workers, and seven out of 10 teachers were women," Lawrence Wright observed in "The Looming Tower," his Pulitzer Prize-winning history of Al Qaeda. "Under the Taliban, many of them would become beggars."

The author of the article suggests a solution:

All these are only examples - the tip of a dreadful iceberg that will never be demolished until Muslims by the millions rise up against it. As for the rest of us, we too have an obligation to raise our voices. It took a worldwide outcry to spare "Qatif girl" and Nazanin. But there are countless others like them, and our silence may seal their fate.

Indeed.

AYAAN HIRSI ALI: Islam’s Silent Moderates

AYAAN HIRSI ALI:

I wish there were more Islamic moderates.

... But when there is true suffering, real cruelty in the name of Islam, we hear, first, denial from all these organizations that are so concerned about Islam’s image.

We hear that violence is not in the Koran, that Islam means peace, that this is a hijacking by extremists and a smear campaign and so on. But the evidence mounts up.

... When a “moderate” Muslim’s sense of compassion and conscience collides with matters prescribed by Allah, he should choose compassion. Unless that happens much more widely, a moderate Islam will remain wishful thinking.

• ISLAM IS NOT THE RELIGION OF PEACE.

• ISLAM IS THE RELIGION OF INTIMIDATION - SUBMISSION UNDER THE THREAT OF CRUEL VIOLENCE. ALWAYS HAS BEEN.
  

• MODERATE PEOPLE WHO HAPPEN TO BE ISLAMIC ARE INTIMIDATED BY THE MORE DEVOUT.

UNTIL THIS CHANGES - SOMEHOW, WW4 WILL CONTINUE....

EITHER WE DEFEAT THE JIHADO-THUGS, OR WE SUBMIT... LOSE.

ARE MUSLIMS MISSING A MARKETING OPPORTUNITY?

The "Religion of Peace" sure seems to have a self-perpetuated PR problem: jihado-terrorists killing thousands, beheadings, mutilation and torture all in the name of Islam... And well all these kind of tend to make rational people a little skittish of Islamo-hegemony.

Then, they get a chance to improve their PR - with a "Mohammamd the Teddy Bear" toy, and WHAM! ... the "Reigion of Peace" strikes again!

HUDNA OR REAL PEACE?

Recently, well over 100 muslim "scholars" submitted a written appeal to the Pope in support of world peace. Text here.

This gesture is nothing more than an attempt to gain a cease fire - a Hudna - a pause in theological hostilities until conditions are more favorable for a return to open conflict.

If the religious leaders of Islam really want peace let them welcome Jews back to Israel, let them return the Temple Mount to the children of Israel, let them declare fatwas against acts of terror, violence and hate speech.

Anything else is just an empty gesture at best.

THE BENAZIR BHUTTO PARADE IS A METAPHOR FOR THE CURRENT STATE OF MODERATE ISLAM

AP/HAARETZ:

KARACHI - A suicide bombing in a crowd welcoming former Prime Minister Benazir Bhutto killed 126 people Thursday night, shattering her celebratory procession through Pakistan's biggest city after eight years in exile.

Two explosions struck near a truck carrying Bhutto, but police and officials of her party said she was not injured and was hurried to her house.

Bhutto flew home to lead her Pakistan People's Party in January parliamentary elections, drawing cheers from supporters massed in a sea of the party's red, green and black flags. The police chief said 150,000 were in the streets, while other onlookers estimated twice that.

The throngs reflected Bhutto's enduring political clout, but she has made enemies of Islamic militants by taking a pro-U.S. line and negotiating a possible political alliance with Pakistan's military ruler, President Gen. Pervez Musharraf.

Authorities had urged her to use a helicopter to reduce the risk of attack amid threats from extremists sympathetic to the Taliban and al-Qaida, but she brushed off the concerns.

"I am not scared. I am thinking of my mission, she had told reporters on the plane from Dubai. This is a movement for democracy because we are under threat from extremists and militants."

Last month, she had told CNN she realized she was a target. "Islamic militants, she said, don't believe in women governing nations, so they will try to plot against me, but these are risks that must be taken. I'm prepared to take them."

Leaving the airport, Bhutto refused to use a bulletproof glass cubicle that had been built atop the truck taking her to the tomb of Pakistan's founding father, Mohammed Ali Jinnah, to give a speech. She squeezed between other party officials along a railing at the front.

Her procession had been creeping toward the center of Karachi for 10 hours, moving at a snail's pace while dancing and cheering supporters swarmed around the truck, when a small explosion erupted near the front of the vehicle. That was quickly followed by a larger blast just feet from the truck, setting an escorting police van on fire and breaking windows in Bhutto's vehicle.

Via PJM:

Ms Bhutto’s husband Zardari told Geo TV that he did not think that extremist elements were behind these blasts, adding that some elements within the government, including some ministers, were responsible for the blasts. He said the PPP was a democratic party and was not a threat to jihadi elements.

UPDATE: MORE BHUTTO DENIAL - VIA THE BBC:

Former Pakistani PM Benazir Bhutto has accused supporters of late military ruler Mohammed Zia ul-Haq of being behind the bomb attack against her. ... Zia overthrew Ms Bhutto's father, Prime Minister Zulfikar Ali Bhutto in 1977, and had him hanged two years later. ... Speaking shortly after the attack on her convoy, Ms Bhutto told Paris-Match magazine: "I know exactly who wants to kill me.

"It is dignitaries of the former regime of General Zia who are today behind the extremism and the fanaticism."

ZIA NOT AL QAEDA AND THE TALIBAN AND IRAN. SHEESH.

LET'S BREAK THAT DOWN:

• She knew she was a target of al Qaeda.

• Despite that - and specific warnings to delay her return by Musharraf - she went back. And she blames an old rival and her hubby blames Musharraf, not the Taliban or al Qaeda - even thought THEY made the threats against her. SHEESH.
  

• And instead of taking an unknown route back from the airport, or traveling by helicopter, or just driving at regular speed, she took a well-publicized route - AND WENT AT WALKING PACE.

She invited the attack. She thought it would not come, that she was bigger than "them" and her misplaced AUDACITY led to the slaughter of 128 people - SO FAR, and hundreds more injured.

THIS STRIKES ME AS A METAPHOR FOR THE CURRENT STATE OF MODERATE OF ISLAM:

Like Leftists here and in Europe, moderate Muslims from the Philippines to Morocco are willfully ignoring the very real dangers presented by the islamofascists. Like the Left, they deny the nature of the enemy - as if, like the ostrich with her head in the sand - that made them safer.

IF WE WANT TO WIN WITH THE LOWEST CASUALTIES, THEN WE MUST ALL UNITE - RIGHT & LEFT, CHRISTIAN, MUSLIM, HINDU, BUDDHIST, JEW AND ATHEIST - AND WE MUST GO ON THE OFFENSIVE.

Or one day - sooner than we think - an attack like this will be done with a WMD, perhaps a nuke... perhaps one of Pakistan's...

WHAT ABBAS WANTS FOR ALL OF ISRAEL

First, a photograph (taken about 100 years ago) of the tomb of the Patriarch Joseph.

It was a forlorn and solitary stone structure in the middle of a desert. No life, no activity, no development. Just like most of the Land of Israel at that time.

But then the Jews, the descendants of Joseph and his brothers, the descendants of the former slaves who fled Egypt with their ancestor Joseph's mummified body in its Egyptian sarcophagus,descendants of the former slaves who had carried it in the desert for 40 years so that they could bury him near his beloved birthplace, came to return to their Land.

The Tomb of Joseph was cleaned up, and the area came back to life. For the Land and the People are One.

The Tomb of Joseph became a center of life and learning.










But the Government of Israel abandoned the Tomb of Joseph in October, 2000, to appease the Arabs in the midst of their genocidal intifada.

The Arabs responded by burning and sacking the Tomb.



















They desecrated the holy place.













They painted it green to turn it into a mosque.

That is what they want to do to the entire Land of Israel; drive out the Jews, destroy all of the life and development that the Jews have created in what was a forlorn desert, and return the land to the savage brutality they have brought about in Gaza. They no longer deny it. Abbas says he wants ALL of Jerusalem, including Herod the Great's Western Wall.

And that would only whet their appetite for Al-Andalus and the rest of the West.

GAZAN KIDS FLUNK MATH AND ARABIC - BUT I BETCHYA THEY PASS JIHAD

HAARETZ/AP:

High number of students in Gaza UN-run schools fail math, Arabic

Large numbers of students in United Nations-run schools in Gaza have flunked achievement tests in math and Arabic, the agency said Thursday, attributing the poor showing to violence, overcrowding and poverty.

More than two-thirds of students in grades four through nine failed math, and more than one-third did poorly in Arabic, said the UN Relief and Works Agency, which runs schools for more than half a million children of Palestinian refugees across the Arab world. Ninety percent of Gaza sixth-graders failed the math test, UNRWA said.

I SAY:

• CHILDREN ARE WHAT THEY ARE TAUGHT.
• THESE CHILDREN ARE DUMB, GENOCIDAL HATE MACHINES.
• PITY.

WONDERFUL ESSAY ON THIS FROM THE BRILLIANT PAT SANTY.

POPE DEFENDS CHRISTENDOM AND ATTACKS JIHADISM

When the Pope defends Christendom it shouldn't be news. But - alas, alack - in the crazy PC/multiculti world in which we live.... IT IS! ATLAS HAS THE STORY. EXCERPT:

The fact that the Pope made these remarks during the Jewish New Year, erev Yom Kippur is not lost on me.

[DAILY MAIL:] The Pope has again risked provoking the wrath of the Islamic world, by criticising its treatment of Christians.

It's about time.

Benedict XVI attacked Muslim nations where Christians are either persecuted or given the status of second-class citizens under the Shariah Islamic law. He also defended the rights of Muslims to convert to Christianity, an act which warrants the death penalty in many Islamic countries.

His comments came almost exactly a year after he provoked a wave of anger among Muslims by quoting a Byzantine emperor who linked Islam to violence.

Atlas has all the links - including to last year's speech and its violent aftermath.

Reliapundit: Folks, ya gotta also remember this: all of North Africa and the Holy Land and Turkey and the Middle East were PREDOMINANTLY Christian before jihad. The Crusades were DEFENSIVE wars in which Christendom tried to re-take what was theirs. SO, when Atlas says, "It's about time..." she means... (IMHO)... it's a thousand years overdue!

JUDAISM, CHRISTIANITY, AND ISLAM: IS THERE A DIFFERENCE?

READ THIS INTERESTING POST FROM PASTORIUS AT HIS OTHER BLOG. EXCERPT:

Having studied Judaism and Christianity, and having come to comprehend the Bible as the love story between God and man, and of man's coming to understand God's love for him, I am struck by the almost-polar-dialectic which exists between Judeo-Christianity and Islam.

The ideas of Islam constitute a philosophy of power.

The ideas of Judeo-Christianity constitute a philosophy which is a gradual clarification of the Law of Justice perfected in the Law of Love.

RTWT, AND THEN, LISTEN TO THIS AUDIO.

AND THEN DECIDE FOR YOURSELVES.
