THE PROPONENTS OF ISLAM ARE AT WAR WITH THE WORLD!

BBC ISLAMOPHILIA - Panorama or Propaganda?

BBC2, 30 September 2013

So, after the harrowing Panorama coverage of the latest Muslim massacre at Nairobi’s Westgate shopping mall, are we still to believe that Islam means peace? I was led to believe from the previews, that - at last - here was a programme to convince everyone of the evil religious motivation behind these and other Islamic atrocities. 

Yes, the gruesome facts were vividly set before us. These al-shebab thugs are a nasty bunch. They were defended (with slight qualification) by the aggressive imam who said Islam permits such retaliation when Muslims are being slaughtered all over the world.

Drawing to a close, the programme’s momentum demanded the blindingly-obvious conclusion that the Islamic religion (or ideology) itself is the root of the problem. Then, at the end, brief interviews with Muslim survivors informed us that ‘Islam is peace’ and that the al-shebab butchery was ‘political not religious’. 

In short, the BBC want us to believe that while Muslim terrorists are justly condemned, Islam remains a benign and commendable religion. This is utterly and totally false. Indeed, Panorama was nothing less than propaganda! The programme was built on three lies. The first is that Muslims are being slaughtered all over the world. Oh, are Jews, Christians and others bombing mosques and shopping malls all over the world?  Yes, traumatised victims of Muslim atrocities in Nigeria and Indonesia occasionally hit back, but ‘Muslims being slaughtered all over the world’? Surely the BBC have failed to report such global violence if it exists. On the contrary, the ongoing suffering of Christians and others is only rarely deemed worthy of the BBC’s impartial coverage! 

Panorama’s second lie is the sickeningly-repeated mantra ‘Islam means peace’. But it means nothing of the kind! The Arabic word for ‘peace’ is ‘salaam’, the Hebrew equivalent being ‘shalom’. No, ‘Islam’ means ‘submission’, submission to Allah. The only sense in which the 'Pax Islama' could mean ‘peace’ is when tribute-paying non-Muslims are silenced by conquest and reduced to a state of dhimminitude or ‘second class’ citizenship. To use properly Sir Iqbal Sacranie’s deceptive expression (used to shield Islam from its critics after 7/7) ‘the Qur’an is perfectly clear’, it states: ‘Make war on them: ... Fight those who believe not in Allah ... Nor acknowledge the religion of Truth, (even if they are of the People of the Book, i.e. Jews and Christians), until they pay the jizyah with submission, and are utterly subdued’ (Sura 9: 14, 29).

Panorama’s final lie is that Islamic terrorism is political not religious. The truth is that Islam has no equivalent distinction between ‘church’ and ‘state’. The religion provides the motivation for the politics. The imam was hiding the fact that violent jihad was fundamental to Islam from the beginning. Muslims do not need some perceived contemporary injustice as an excuse to butcher their enemies. Muhammad’s Qur’an and Hadith tell them to slaughter all who refuse to submit to Allah. This is ‘pure’ Islamic teaching. Which means that so-called ‘moderate’ Muslims are not true Muslims at all. Apart from their occasional ‘taqiyya-talk’ condemnation of ‘extremist’ violence, their usual silence means they dare not distance themselves too far from the bloody violence of their warriors. 

In other words, in any part of the world, every Muslim community has potential for inhuman hatred of the kind felt in Nairobi. Give them time, Muslims will ratchet up their activities in the West just as they are doing in Africa. We ‘aint seen nothing yet’!  Don’t forget the al-shebab fighter’s spine-chilling invitation to radicalized youth: “Come on, we have a lot of fun over here.” Let’s hope the new reputedly-funny BBC sitcom ‘Citizen Khan’ will not end up making us laugh ourselves to death! 

A final question raised by Panorama is obvious. What kind of atrocity has to occur in the UK before ‘PC’ politicians and churchmen stop pretending that the Islamic religion itself is beautiful and benign?
