A Religion of Peace "It is not in fact possible for there to be any peace or coexistence between 'the Islamic Religion' and non-Islamic social and political institutions" [Alija Izetbegovic, Bosnian Muslim leader, Le Manifeste Islamique, p81, quoted at hirhome.com/islam/culture01.htm]. "Muslims are always saying that Islam is a religion of peace. But many Christians in the Muslim world know differently. For them, Islam has been and remains a religion which metes out violence. Otherwise, why should Islam's followers attack and destroy them so often? Muslims must have the courage now to address this part of their faith and stop these attacks on Christians" [Dr. Patrick Sookhdeo, International Director, The Barnabas Fund]. "Our politically correct
leaders often tell us that Islam means peace. Actually it does
not. Islam means submission. If you submit you get peace, if not you
get jihad. In fundamentalist Islam, the area of the world where Islam
rules is called the 'Dar al Islam' (House of Islam). The rest of the
world is called the 'Dar al Harb' (House of the Enemy). The ultimate
goal of the jihad is the conversion of the Dar al Harb into the Dar al
Islam" [Tony Pearce, Israel and the Media Debate, 14 Sept 2006].
"A Hamas representative in the PA legislative council this year expressed pride in the fact that women and children are used as human shields in fighting Israel. He described it as part of a 'death industry' at which Palestinians excel, and explained that the Palestinians 'desire death' with the same intensity that Israelis 'desire life'. The following is the full text of the comments by Hamas representative Fathi Hamad: 'For the Palestinian people death became an industry, at which women excel and so do all people on this land: the elderly excel, the Jihad fighters excel, and the children excel. Accordingly [Palestinians] created a human shield of women, children, the elderly and the Jihad fighters against the Zionist bombing machine, as if they were saying to the Zionist enemy: We desire death as you desire life' (Al-Aqsa TV (Hamas) Feb. 29, 2008) [PMW, 29 Dec 08].
A Muslim World "We have 50 million Muslims in Europe. There are signs that Allah will grant Islam victory in Europe - without swords, without guns, without conquests. The 50 million Muslims of Europe will turn it into a Muslim continent within a few decades. Europe is in a predicament, and so is America. They should agree to become Islamic in the course of time, or else declare war on the Muslims. ... All people must be Muslims" [Libyan leader Moammar Gadhafi, speaking on Arab satellite network Al Jazeera, [no date] quoted at http://www.lightforthelastdays.co.uk/view_page.asp?page_id=336&menu_id=228]. "Islam wishes to destroy all states and governments anywhere on the face of the earth which are opposed to the ideology and program of Islam regardless of the country or the nation which rules it. The purpose of Islam is to set up a state on the basis of its own ideology and program … the objective of Islamic jihad is to eliminate the rule of an un-Islamic system and establish instead an Islamic system of state rule. Islam does not intend to confine this revolution to a single state or a few countries; the aim of Islam is to bring about a universal revolution" [Sheikh Maolana Maududi, no date]. "There is no escape from a new civilization ... The Western world is not capable of fulfilling this role ... There is only one nation capable of discharging this task and that is our nation [Islam]. ... This religion [Islam] will defeat all other religions and it will be disseminated, by Allah's will, through the Muslim Jihad fighters" [Passage from a text book used in schools run by the Palestinian Authority, quoted at http://www.lightforthelastdays.co.uk/view_page.asp?page_id=264&menu_id=228]. "We are convinced that this Hadith [a saying not in the Quran, but given equal weight in Islamic teaching] heralds the spread of Islam and its rule over all the land. Oh beloved, look to the East of the earth, find Japan and the ocean; look to the West of the earth, find some country and the ocean. Be assured that these will be owned by the Muslim nation, as the Hadith says, 'from the ocean to the ocean'" [Sheikh Ibrahim Mahdi, sermon given from the main mosque in Gaza 12 April 2002, broadcast by Palestinian TV, quoted at http://www.lightforthelastdays.co.uk/view_page.asp?page_id=264&menu_id=228]. "When you find that the continent of Europe, which isn't replacing itself [through the birth rate], is beginning to implode and be overtaken by immigrants, most of which are Muslim, and they're building their own communities, refusing to inculcate the culture, refusing to embrace the language and insist upon changing the entire facade of western Europe, no wonder you have this gentleman in the Netherlands, this politician who [argues that] the Islamization of the Netherlands is something that is upon us, and if we want to save our culture, we'd better do something about it" [Lt. Col. Bob Maginnis (USA-Ret.), . "Europe's greatest cities are turning into the Middle East. And this should surprise no one at all. Once upon a time, Alexandria, Damascus, Constantinople and Jerusalem were cosmopolitan centers of culture and learning. Today only West Jerusalem amounts to anything, precisely because it is the only one of them not under the boot of Islam. Islam destroyed the Middle East. And now it has its sights set on Europe and the rest of the world. While First World politicians may preach diversity, the flood of Islamic migrants washing up on their shore are not interested in diversity, their culture, law and religion is Islam. They want no others... and more importantly they will tolerate no other. ... [Europe] will come to look exactly like the Middle East ... made of equal parts rubble, dirt and hate. A region where the literacy rate is lower than Sub-Saharan Africa. Where women are property. Where there is no constitution or law, only the will of an Imam or a tyrant. That is the Europe that the advocates of diversity and multiculturalism are speedily bringing about. That is the Europe, the America, the Australia and the Canada that their grandchildren will have to live in. It will not be a diverse place, except in the diverse numbers of slaves. There will be no culture, no freedom, no knowledge and no truth" [http://www.rightsidenews.com/201003088962/culture-wars/islam-is-incompatible-with-diversity.html].
