Withholding Reality



Karl du Fresne brings a lone, public voice of sanity, in his Dominion Post opinion piece

Western freedom repaid with vile acts and most welcome it is.  What a refreshing change to Islam’s spin-doctor Donna Mojab. 


As to the bit he just doesn't get, why a large number of Middle East / North African immigrants want to replicate the conditions that they've just fled from, some knowledge of Islamic doctrine will help understand Muslim’s religiosity.  MIGRATION, or hijra.  “And whoever emigrates for the cause of Allah will find on the earth many locations and abundance,” (Koran 4:100).  PROSELYTISING, or da’wah. “Fight against those who disbelieve in Allah. Make a holy war…When you meet your enemies who are polytheists, invite them to three courses of action. If they respond to any one of these you also accept it and withhold yourself from doing them any harm. Invite them to (accept) Islam; if they respond to you, accept it from them and desist from fighting against them…. If they refuse to accept Islam, demand from them the Jizya. If they agree to pay, accept it from them and hold off your hands. If they refuse to pay the tax, seek Allah’s help and fight them.” (Sahih Muslim 4294).  SUPREMACISM:  “This day I have perfected for you your religion and completed My favour upon you and have approved for you Islam as religion.”  (Surah 5:3)  Muslims regard Islam as the perfect system of religion, law, education, and social and civic management for the entire world.  Because of Islam’s ESSENTIALISM there is no need for revision and its 7th century laws last forever.  Any failings in its governance is therefore due to external causes, a process called RESSENTIMENT and a major source of Muslim’s justifying warfare and lawfare.  Muslim’s failure to INTEGRATE is written between the lines in Karl’s post, but Muslims are not required to integrate.  Their host country is required to integrate with Islam. 

So much more to learn, Karl, but you are definitely on the right track.  Islam is aiming for global hegemonic control, and their methods are publicly acknowledged, simple, straightforward, written in its history, and divinely ordained.

But here’s what I just don’t get.  Why is Western civilisation allowing itself to be defeated?  This is so much more difficult to answer.
