"We'll Stay Multiculturally Correct - Even if it Kills Us"

"We'll Stay Multiculturally Correct - Even if it Kills Us"
- Diana West, The Washington Times

Only one faith on Earth may be more messianic than Islam: Multiculturalism.

Without it - without its fanatics who believe all civilizations are the same - the engine that projects Islam into the unprotected heart of Western civilization would stall and fall. It's as simple as that. To live among the believers - the multiculturalists - is to watch the assault, the jihad, take place unrepulsed by our suicidal societies. These societies are not doomed to submit; rather, they are eager to do so in the name of a masochistic brand of tolerance that, short of drastic measures, is surely terminal.

I'm not talking about our soldiers, policemen, rescue workers and, now, even train conductors, who bravely and steadfastly risk their lives for civilization abroad and at home. Instead, I'm thinking about who we are as a society at this somewhat advanced stage of war. It is a strange, tentative civilization we have become, with leaders who strut their promises of "no surrender" even as they flinch at identifying the foe. Four years past 9/11, we continue to shadow-box "terror", even as we go on about "an ideology of hate". It's a script that smacks of sci-fi fantacy more than Realpolitik . But our grim reality is no summer blockbuster, and there's no special-effects-enhanced plot twist that is going to thwart "terror" or "hate" in the London Underground anymore than it did on the roof of the World Trade Center. Or in the Bali nightclub. Or on the first day of school in Beslan. Or in any disco, city bus, or shopping mall in Israel.

Body bags, burn masks and prosthetics are no better protections than make-believe. But these are our weapons, according to the powers that be.

These, and an array of high-tech scopes and scanners designed to identify retinas & fingerprints, to detect explosives and metals- ultimately, I presume, as we whisk through the automatic supermarket door. How strange, though, that even as we devise new ways to see inside ourselves to our most elemental components, we also prevent ourselves from looking full-face at the danger to our way of life posed by Islam.

Notice I didn't say "Islamisists". Or "Islmaofascists". Or "fundamentalist extremists." I've tried out such terms in the past, but I've come to find them artificial and confusing, and maybe purposefully so, because in their imprecision I think they allow us to give a wide berth to a great problem: the gross incompatibility of Islam - the religious force that shrinks freedom even as it "moderately" enables or "extremistly" advances jihad - with the West. Am I right? Who's to say? The very topic fo Islamization - for that is what is at hand, and very soon in Europe - is verboten . A leaked British report prepared for Prime Minister Tony Blair last year warned even against "expressions of concern about Islamic fundamentalism" (another one of those amorphous terms) because "many perfectly moderate Muslims follow strict adherence to traditional Islamic teachings and are likely to perceive such expressions as a negative comment on their own approach to their faith". Much better to watch subterranean tunnels fill with charred body parts in silence.

As the London Times' Simon Jenkins wrote, "The sane response to urban terrorism is to regard it as an avoidable accident". In not discussing the roots of terror in Islam itself, in not learning about them, the multicultural clergy that shepherds our elites prevents us from having to do anything about them. This is key, because any serious action - stopping immigration from jihad-sponsoring nations, shutting down mosques that preach violence and expelling their imams, just for starters - means to renounce the multicultural creed. In the West, that's the greatest apostasy.

And while the penalty is not death - as it is for leaving Islam under Islamic law - the existential crisis is to be avoided at all costs. Including extinction.

This is the lesson of the atrocities in London. It's unlikely that the 21st century will remember that this new Western crossroads for global jihad was once the home of Churchill, Piccadilly and Sherlock Holmes. Then again, who will notice? The BBC has retroactively purged its online bombing coverage of the word "terrorist"; the spokesman for the London police commissioner has declared that "Islam and terrorism simply don't go together"; and within sight of a forensics team sifting through rubble, an Anglican priest urged his flock, as The Guardian reported, to "rejoice in the capital's rich diversity of cultures, traditions, ethnic groups and faiths." Just don't, he said, "name them as Muslims." Their faith renewed, Londoners soldier on.

Last time I looked one of the largest emerging democracies in South East Asia was Muslim as its neighbouring country... a total of almost 300 million people or a third of Muslims outright. I also note that Turkey is a Muslim democracy.

So Islam isn't anti-democracy. What is anti-democracy is fundamentalists of all relgions.

Also Pakistan is returning to democracy to the point that it is back into the Commonwealth of Nations.

I would name the terrorists as Muslims just like I name the IRA Catholics. I however do not same that Catholics are anti-democracy even thought the schism that lead to the reformation could be said to have lead to more democracy in the reformed countries...
Nor do I say that all Christians are cross burning murders based on the KKK.

Paint with too broad a brush and you can paint a barn not a picture.

Relativity has become a knee-jerk reaction.

If we dont stop trying to find bad people of an equivolent nature in our own society and actually address the main cause of islamic terrorism, then the rising body count will be no one's fault but our own.

If you keep blaming an entire religion you will not find the answer.

Look at post WWI Germany, the economy, the depression, the need to blame another group. The Nazis feed on the hopes and aspirations of the people around them and gave them someone else to blame for the situation. It was the Allies fault for the depression because of the terms and conditions of surrender from WWI (ignoring that the depression was hitting the victors as well). That it was a consipiracy of a religious group to wipe them out... Crystal Night. That a hardline group took power over the general power base... Night of the Long Knives.

A lot of the same conditions and manipulations can be seen in raising the people who become terrorists and those whom are manipulated into being facists.

The terrorists are told that their leaders have access to the absolute truth, that their is an enemy and that enemies destruction will yield a better life both now and beyond. You can turn your life around with just the touch of a button. Kill your enemy and all will be wonderful...

Idle hands are the devils tools. I am opposed to fundamentalist absolute answers because those are the very tools of the terrorists.

A brief glance on the internet about the author... hahahahahahahaha...

I think we should use a different word than fundamentalist. There is nothing wrong with fundamentalism.
As we discussed in the “What is a Jew” thread, a fundamentalist is just someone who opposes modernism, someone who want to take the direction of a religion back to its fundamentals. If those fundamentals are peace and love which are true for most religions, even Islam, there should be no connection between fundamentalists and terror.
If we are using extremists, the ones that needs to take things further than necessary because of who knows what, we start getting closer to a more correct wording.

Reducing the religious (and sexual and racial) tolerance that we in the West enjoy would be to give in to the demands of terrorism. We would become more and more insular, and cultures would become more and more polarised.

Is the author suggesting that the multicultural societies that we have today are worse than the bigotted societies that we used to have?

The West's great weakness against Islamic Extremism is its own liberalism.

Okay, I admit it. We Muslims are currently conspiring to impose our rule in the western world. I can’t wait to get PanzerJager to polish my shoes.

if they agree to use those uniforms they have to be a bunch of pansies anyway ~D

2003, the group around the neonazi Martin Wiese planned to blow off the Jewish center in Munic. They had more than 14 kg explosives. PJ, I know you oppose violence to jews, but since you call yourself a fascist, would you bother if we leave all that relativistic nonsense aside and declare you guilty by association?

Nazism is not an ideological equivilent to Fascism. Compare Fascist Austria under Dollfuß to Nazi Germany, or Franco's Spain to Nazi Germany. You'll see several major differences.

By the way, the Swiss guard, by wearing those outragously sexy uniforms (I want one), prove that they have balls of steel.

Yeah right, nazi are socialists.

And mind you, the Swiss Guards are probably one of the best trained and most effectve army of the western world.

Nazism is an ideology unto itself, it takes economic ideas from Socialism and blends in it's own unique brand of hatred and opression, forming National Socialism (which, before Hitler brought in the hate, wasn't that bad), and Nazism.

Saying that all Fascists are the same is like saying that Socialism is Nazism.

A very provocative piece of article-like nonsence. Who is that lady btw?

Isnt it time we stop tollerating direct religion bashing in here? We are allready tollerating nazism and fascism and all that...is it ever gonna stop?

Articles like this, if they stir up anything at all, is religious sagregation. Their only purpose is to actually make muslim people support radical fanatics. Which is every fundamentalist americans dream anyway since deep in their hearts they do see all this as a religious war...

Dariush/Daryush/Darius owes it's popularity as a name to the fact that three (at least?) achaemenid persian kings had this name. i believe it appears in the bible too. it's a fairly common modern iranian name, iirc. it means "one who is kind" or something like that.

How the hell can you see into people’s heart? Tell me where you learned this mystical power ~D


I see many people here bash America I will give quotes (but not names so no one is singled out) I used to see french bashing on here. If we can have that why not this. You also see christian bashing to on here too.

So why should islam be given better treatment.

It sounds similar to Darius... Oh, you said that. Um, I know that the last Darius was the Third, but there might have been another that wasn't counted.

About the topic.Its essential that we stay multiculturally correct.Because the thing that wahhabist priest is that we westerners hate all the muslims,and there fore we should be killed.Do you guys want to prove them right?

Because Islamists taste good on crackers? I dunno...

This thread proves the author's point.

No one will stand up and say "Theres a problem within Islam that must be dealt with." Instead we've seen attacks on me, the author, ect. :no:

If the "moderate"(ie the ones who dont blow people up) muslim leaders dont address the problem and if the West continues to close its eyes and pretend there isnt a problem then we can only expect more terror attacks. Its like trying to kill a weed without killing the roots.

If you mean that we should rout out Islam in order to rout out extremist.I say you are having a nightmare. :bow:

PJ, haven't some already condemmed the radicals? Didn't English and Spanish leaders issue fatwas?
And yes, normal Muslim leaders need to condem the nutjobs. But what can we do about it? It's not like the government can order a condemnation.

Quote:

---

It's not like the government can order a condemnation.

Its not the government . There is no government of Islam. Its up to the Muslims to clean up their mess. So far their doing an extremely poor job of it.

Perhaps. But I think you get what I'm saying: even if non Muslims say "Normal Muslims need to condem the bad ones", they still have to do it. Non Muslims can't make them do it.

Oh. I'm confused now... :hide:

Fatwa...

fatwa

n : a ruling on a point of Islamic law that is given by a recognized authority

So a fatwa was given...about the attacks...for or against?

Azi

Um, it was against the attackers, I believe. Someone else knows more about it, and the what it actually means, though.

Thanks. Just checking. I kept seeing the darned word...and it does make sense.

Too bad there is no Pope of Islam. One figurehead who could tell all the extremists 'No! Bad! Quit shooting us in the foot!'

:embarassed:

Sorry that was bad. I wonder if it would be possible to motivate the rest of the Moslem world to get rid of the extremists. Probably not...but at least they could help ameliorate their influence.

Azi

I do get the impression that by far the majority of leaders are trying to calm it down, it's just the radicals who are stuffing the whole thing up. Here's part of a transcript from an interview with a muslim leader from an (Australian) ABC show I like to watch Lateline.

When reading it (and indeed watching it) I gave the Sheikh some leeway because it is obvious English isn't his first language, and so some of his words are somewhat clumsy sounding, but to me it seems the intent is good.

TONY JONES: Alright. Let's move on to the other thing you said that has get people upset, and that's your position on jihad. You are saying to young Australian Muslims, it appears, that it's not right to do jihad in Australia, but it would be righteous to fight a jihad in Iraq. Is that correct?

SHEIKH OMRAN: No, I didn't say that. I never said that and I always trying to calm my people and teach them that we need the youth to build Australia. But, again, this is a different view and a different time. Jihad, as I said, is a sword with two edges. It could cut you, which means you could understand it in the right way, and you could understand it in the wrong way. But we don't say jihad is not something we need. I don't say that.

TONY JONES: But would you say it is right to fight a Jihad in Iraq?

SHEIKH OMRAN: If there's a Jihad in Iraq I don't believe what's happening in Iraq today, with all of this interruption and misconduct with everyone against everyone is a jihad, I don't say that, no.

TONY JONES: So it would be wrong for any young Australian to go to Iraq to fight jihad, is that right?

SHEIKH OMRAN: That's less or more about what I'm saying, yes.

TONY JONES: Well, can you say that clearly so young Muslims will understand what you are saying? Is it wrong to fight a jihad?

SHEIKH OMRAN: Of course it is wrong. Especially nowadays it is wrong to do anything. I don't believe, as I said in Channel 9, and I believe you are aware of that, I said it maybe a year ago or more than that, jihad need establishment of a government to lead the jihad in the right order. I don't believe jihad can be done by everyone and anyone by no means and no target on it and achieving nothing at all.

TONY JONES: Alright. Now, again, the last time we spoke, you claimed that no true Muslim would have done anything as awful as the London train and bus bombings. It's now quit clear that young British-born Muslims carried out those bombings. Are you shocked by that?

SHEIKH OMRAN: Yes, I am. Absolutely.

TONY JONES: So what is the lesson for young Australian Muslims out of the bombings in London?

SHEIKH OMRAN: That to stay with their sheikhs, learn more about their religion, not to be led with mischief people to do a mischief action.

TONY JONES: Is suicide bombing an evil and a perversion of Islam?

SHEIKH OMRAN: Well, I can't say that as a general term, but it is for what they are doing now. Yes, it is.

TONY JONES: So how does it stand with you, Sheikh? Will suicide bombers end up in hell having broken one of the strictest commandment in the Koran against the killing of innocent people?

SHEIKH OMRAN: Hell or paradise is not in my hand or your hand, but we condemn the action and God only himself can judge these people when they pass to the next life. But what I say, the action - like what happened in London or what happened anywhere else - killing innocent people is not an Islamic action.

TONY JONES: What do you say to the delusion that many of these young suicide bombers have that they will go straight to heaven and be attended by 72 virgins?

SHEIKH OMRAN: I'm saying they got it wrong, and I hope the listeners understand that going to heaven is not just killing yourself, you go to heaven. You don't go to heaven if you don't have the right intention, and the good intention and the good deeds, and this is the only thing that can take you to heaven.

TONY JONES: Sheikh Mohomed Omran, we thank you once again for taking the time to come and talk to us tonight.

SHEIKH OMRAN: You're most welcome.

I think he illustrates just what wrong here. He should be outright condeming these people . Hes hedging his words. Its this well of course their wrong but what do you expect me to do attitude thats to blame. At least thats the perception of many here in the West. Again if christains were doing this we would be the first to hunt them down.

I disagree with you. He's hedging in some cases because he feels he can't do it due to his beleifs (ie. he can't say someone will go to hell, neither can he saysomeone will go to heaven), but where he can he's absolute enough.

Q: So it would be wrong for any young Australian to go to Iraq to fight jihad, is that right?
A: That's less or more about what I'm saying, yes.

That's pretty clear to me.

Q:It's now quit clear that young British-born Muslims carried out those bombings. Are you shocked by that?
A: Yes, I am. Absolutely.

Pretty clear that he feels shocked that people who claim to follow Islam would commit such atrocities.

Q: Is suicide bombing an evil and a perversion of Islam?
A: Well, I can't say that as a general term, but it is for what they are doing now. Yes, it is.

Again, pretty clear. He's hedging in sayign suicide bombings could be acceptible in some circumstances, but then goes on to say that in the circumstances of terrorism and the killing of innocents it is evil and a perversion of Islam.

Well he comes close here. At least he condenms the actions but again all hes really saying is hey were not all like that. He should be telling his people if you know any radicals like this turn them into the authorities. They should be screaming this from on high. They should call for a Jihad against the Jihadists. Dont hold your breath waiting for it though.

"Normal Muslims need to condem the bad ones"
Well that can sometimes be a little difficult , there were several protests held in Egypt , but unfortunately the protesters were threatened with arrest , because in a freedom loving Western backed nation that has been under emergency laws for the past 24 years you cannot protest , even if you are protesting againsnt terrorists who are attacking your own country . :dizzy2:

They should call for a Jihad against the Jihadists. Dont hold your breath waiting for it though.
Why not , it would be a very short breath to hold since it has already happened , many times by many people in many countries .

i don´t think he´s hedging.....on the contrary...the intervier was trying to stuff words down his mouth, and he´s not going with that....he´s just making his position, he says that the london situation was wrong....can´t get much clearer than that.

What of it? Once more if a group who claimed to be christians were doing this we would be just saying hey thats wrong. We would be killing the bastards ourselves. If you need any help killing them just ask us. Not hemming and hawing. He does seem to leave room for Jihad does he not?

when the IRA was bombing london i don´t recall an international catolic movement to help kick their ass.....neither would i expect it to happen.......the situation in london isn´t the responsability of Islam as a whole just like the Pope wasn´t responsible for the IRA back in the day...

the does hint that jihad can be acceptable in some situations.......so what?...jihad does not equal terrorism and i imagine it can be conducted in several ways.

One thing Sheikh Omran said that is significant is that jihad should be declared by a government, not done by individuals. This conservative doctrine means that jihad is rather like conventional war in non-Muslim thinking and the concept cannot be used to justify terrorism. Unfortunately, this interpretation is obviously not shared by OBL and fellow Islamic terrorists.

Ronin, the IRA may be overwhelmingly Catholic but neither Catholicism nor a certain strand of Catholic theology is behind the current situation in Northern Ireland.

With the IRA you may have expected ordinary citizens of the U.K. to condemn what they did: they did so. You may expect the armed forces (and loyalist terrorists) to go after the IRA: they did so.
You wouldn't expect a mass Catholic movement against them unless they became religious fanatics which they do not tend to be.
You may as well have expected massive Catholic movements against the Argentine govt. when they invaded the Falklands.

also...."condemned"?...talk is cheap....specially in a country were part of the irish population was helping fund the IRA....

it´s all nice and dandy talking about wanting the muslim world to give "strong condemnation"...it´s a little harder to live up to those lofty ideals i see.

Although having a group of neo-nazi skinheads burst in and blow you off would most likely be pretty frightening too ~D

Ireland is their country? Also every protestant accross the world basicly opposed them. I would think that qualifies as international.

These people were no better than the Muslim terrorists. This was done by Irish Catholics here not catholics in general. . What do you want christains from around the world to invade Ireland? I dont think Britain would care too much for that. Try finding a better analogy like a place where Christains are terrorizing another relgion like Islam and not themselves. I havent seen the IRA use the bible to justify their actions or say that anyone who doesnt join the IRA or become a catholic is an infidel and worthy of death. Its more of an Irish thing.

You cant find any "deacent" terrorist orginization based on extrem Christianity,because there arent any.So the question should be why?Because we have better education system than the Arabs.Who tend to get these grazy ideas from those so called Koran Schools.So should we give little bit support to their governments to start some public schools there?

Just because somebody say they are on jihad, it doesn't mean they are on one.

Could you show me anywhere in the annals of history where Ireland was a united nation ? Possibly show me where it was a united catholic nation.

Typical narrowback Gawain , you probably think Wolfe Tone was catholic and Liam Mellows was an Irishman who was killed by the Brits .
Do you condemn terrorism ? or do you condemn terorism only when it is not "Catholic "?

Catholics don't only want to take over this world , they want the whole Universe . ~D ~D ~D

No , but unfortunately some "christian "movements do , and some that because God is on their side then any nasty thing they have to do is relly Gods workand notthe unrighteous murder that it really is

If the IRA attacked the US and Ireland did nothing about it I bet it wouldnt be long before we invaded there or at least send men to help destroy them. Again theres no comparison between the IRA and AQ in this matter. The IRA isnt a christain organization. In fact its a anti christain organization if you please. They dont attack muslims only other christans.

That`s not the point. The point is how you read what he said. For example, he has good reason to leave room for Jihad, it would be against his religion not to do. But before you cry "there you have it", jihad does not necessarily involve violence. The more traditional meaning of jihad is that of an internal struggle, one to be a better muslim.

More of the wizard of Oz. Pay no attention to the man in the booth. I am the great and powerful OZ. Tell that to AQ, Islamic Jihad, Hezbolah and countless other radical Muslim extretemist groups killing people all over the world. All any of you can ever fall back on is the IRA.

You leave room for one kind of Jihad you leave room for the other.

IRA,
KKK,
Nazis,
Neo-Nazis,
Apartheid South Africa (opposite of a working multicultural state is this type),
French Rainbow Warrior Sinking,
Waco Texas Branch Davidian,
Timothy McVeigh,
JDL,
AQ,
Hamas,
Hezbollah,
Tamil Tigers,
etc

What is that supposed to be a list of?

Short list of some of the worlds terrorists groups and anti-mulitcultural governments.

Waco Texas Branch Davidians were a terrorist group? ~:confused:

Well at least I dont see any Christian organizations there.

It is easy for a Christian to see a nutter terrorist who call themselves Christians and go 'No, you certainly are not'.

I would call some factions of the Neo-Nazis, KKK, Apartheid South Africa and IRA as extremist Christian groups just like I would call AQ an extremist Islamic group and JDL an extremist Jewish group. Most mainstream followers will condemn the extremists, but rarely do they step in and use lethal force on them...

Then you would be wrong. You cannot use the words of Christ to back what any of these organizations do. They dont what they do to spread christianity. Your comparing apples and oranges here. Heck to me the police are a terrorist group.

This thread is about getting rid of multiculturalism. I am listing both terrorist groups and anti-multiculuralist governments. They are not 1:1 but there is a cross over as most fundamentalists are more prone to being racist/anti-other religions/'purests'/'anti-mixing of race' they are prone to wanting things like the White Australia Policy and a single culture.

Who did the Branch Davidians terrorize?

You don't necessarily need the voice of Jesus. If you read the Bible closely enough, there's lot's of little things that condone slavery and even killing of homosexuals. The Bible is a very contradictory and flawed book.

No its not . And again that the old testament. Thats why I say using Christs words because a christain is one who does so. Theres the difference between christianity and Islam . You can use Mohmad and the Korans words to do just what Bin Laden does. In fact he does. Try to twist Christs words anyway you like you cant do it. Chritianity is a religion of love, Islam is a religion of submission.
