"Predictably there has been also instant politicising of [the New Zealand Mosque] tragedy from the legacy media ... However, just a few days ago, 100 people were killed in a part of Nigeria by Muslim terrorists. This slaughter took place in the Kaduna area. This has made zero international headlines despite the scale of the killings. The wife of a Christian pastor was reported to be amongst the dead. Are some victims deserving of media attention than others?..."

When Truth Disappears

The following is an extended extract from the article: Terrorism: When Truth Disappears

"You know the drill by now: every idiotic excuse in the book is made for Muslim terrorists. It has become such a standard and routine response of Western leaders, commentators and 'experts' that we do not need to wait for any new information.

"The formula runs like this: A Muslim kills in the name of his faith, or political ideology, making it 100% clear what his motivation is, what his religion is, and what his beef is, and the West offers us this:

• he was mentally ill;
• he was a lone wolf;
• he must have had some real serious grievances to act like this;
• we cannot tar all of Islam with this one attack;
• we must remind people that Christians are terrorists too;
• we must insist that you have more chances of getting killed by a wayward emu than a Muslim terrorist;
• we must repeat the mantra that Islam is a religion of peace;
• we must come to accept all this as the new normal;
• we must accept that this is the way life now is in the West;
• we must insist that the real worry is any backlash against Muslims;
• we must do more to protect Muslims;
• we must resist all this racism;
• we must assure all Muslims that we fully stand with them no matter what;
• we must stop alienating and offending Muslims;
• we must above all guard against Islamophobia;
• we must remember the appropriate response: more hashtags, candle-lit vigils, 'peace' marches and love-ins;
• we will need more pop concerts with young pop stars gyrating in front of smitten 13-year-old girls;
• we will hire yet more Muslim policemen, firemen, politicians, military leaders, lecturers, and news readers in the West to combat all this ugly Islamophobia;
• we will immediately attack and condemn anyone who dares to say we might have a problem with the political ideology of Islam.

"Now just change a few words and see how all this goes down with the Finsbury Park attacker:

• he was mentally ill;
• he was a lone wolf;
• he must have had some real serious grievances to act like this;
• we cannot tar all of conservatism with this one attack;
• we must remind people that Muslims are terrorists too;
• we must insist that you have more chances of getting killed by a wayward emu than a right wing terrorist...

"Exact same response, but to a different attacker. Now unless I have missed something here, I have never once heard any of these excuses and justifications for the non-Muslim attacker. Not one. Never. Why is that? Why do we have a broken record when it come to clear-cut cases of Islamic terrorism and jihad, but the whole world goes nuts when one non-Muslim does something similar?"

The Curse of Cain

"After Cain killed his brother, the Lord told him, ... 'Cursed shall you be from the earth', ... and so it has been. The earth under their feet may be cursed, it yields nothing but sand and thistles, ... They become worshippers of death dreaming of the green verdant fields of paradise which they can reach only if they kill enough men, women and children. Leaving devastation behind them, dead lands, lost cultures, widows and orphans, they claw their way up to heaven on a ladder of bones. Everything around them dies until the only green is on their flags. They are cursed from the earth and they curse the earth. Where they go, the world dies. ... Cain sows fields of corpses of the innocent for the Lord and he still does not understand why his sacrifice is not accepted and why the earth he dwells on is cursed. ...  From Iraq to Iran, from Kuwait to Saudi Arabia, from Nigeria to Somalia, from Pakistan to Indonesia, he holds up human heads and cries 'Allahu Akbar'. ... There is no room for Cain anywhere. Where he remains there will be death and suffering. He will kill because it is all he can do. He has nothing else to offer the world, his own kind, or the Creator.. ... He kills from one end of the world to the next and it is never his fault. Each time, each Abel did it. ... His code is cruelty and his holy book is written in blood on the flayed skins of his murdered victims. ... The cries of peoples long vanished from the earth warn us that we will either drive out Cain or his curse will fill our lands with blood and dust and all that we love and all that we have worked for will die at his cursed touch" [source].

The Burden Which Habakkuk the Prophet Saw

The righteous cry out for God's punishment of the injustice in their lands:
O LORD, how long shall I cry, and thou wilt not hear! even cry out unto thee of violence, and thou wilt not save!
Why dost thou show me iniquity, and cause me to behold grievance? for spoiling and violence are before me: and there are that raise up strife and contention.
Therefore the law is slacked, and judgment doth never go forth: for the wicked doth compass about the righteous; therefore wrong judgment proceedeth.

The LORD God answers:
Behold ye among the heathen, and regard, and wonder marvellously: for I will work a work in your days, which ye will not believe, though it be told you.
For, lo, I raise up the Chaldeans, that bitter and hasty nation, which shall march through the breadth of the land, to possess the dwelling places that are not theirs.
They are terrible and dreadful: their judgment and their dignity shall proceed of themselves.
Their horses also are swifter than the leopards, and are more fierce than the evening wolves:
And their horsemen shall spread themselves, and their horsemen shall come from far; they shall fly as the eagle that hasteth to eat.
They shall come all for violence: their faces shall sup up as the east wind, and they shall gather the captivity as the sand.
And they shall scoff at the kings, and the princes shall be a scorn unto them: they shall deride every strong hold; for they shall heap dust, and take it.
Then shall his mind change, and he shall pass over, and offend, imputing this his power unto his god.

The dismay of the righteous at God's answer:   
Art thou not from everlasting, O LORD my God, mine Holy One? we shall not die.
O LORD, thou hast ordained them for judgment; and, O mighty God, thou hast established them for correction.
Thou art of purer eyes than to behold evil, and canst not look on iniquity:
Wherefore lookest thou upon them that deal treacherously, and holdest thy tongue when the wicked devoureth the man that is more righteous than he?
They take up all of them with the angle, they catch them in their net, and gather them in their drag: therefore they rejoice and are glad.
Therefore they sacrifice unto their net, and burn incense unto their drag; because by them their portion is fat, and their meat plenteous.
Shall they therefore empty their net, and not spare continually to slay the nations?
I will stand upon my watch, and set me upon the tower, and will watch to see what he will say unto me, and what I shall answer when I am reproved.

The LORD God's reassurance to the righteous:
And the LORD answered me, and said, Write the vision, and make it plain upon tables, that he may run that readeth it.
For the vision is yet for an appointed time, but at the end it shall speak, and not lie: though it tarry, wait for it; because it will surely come, it will not tarry.
Behold, his soul which is lifted up is not upright in him: but the just shall live by his faith.

[Habakkuk 1:1-2:4]
