Islamofascist Strategy
I've spent a lot of time outlining my strategy for victory. Let's now take a look at the enemy's strategy.
There is a good quote here:
"The chief weapon in the quiver of all Islamist expansionist movements, is the absolute necessity to keep victims largely unaware of the actual theology plotting their demise. To complete this deception, a large body of ‘moderates’ continue to spew such ridiculous claims as “Islam means Peace” thereby keeping non-Muslims from actually reading the Qur’an, the Sira, the Hadith, or actually looking into the past 1400 years of history. Islamists also deny or dismiss the concept of ‘abrogation’, which is the universal intra-Islamic method of replacing slightly more tolerable aspects of the religion in favor of more violent demands for Muslims to slay and subdue infidels"
There's not a great deal to add to that! I don't know how they expected to get away with this strategy, but I have to admit they have been having some success. The amount of crap in western brains is phenomenal. The Islamofascists have leveraged into western self-doubt and made what seems to be a majority of the population believe that any criticism of violence from Muslims is a symptom of western religious bigotry. The Muslims have been given a licence to spew hatred about the west, while living in the west, and leeching resources off the west.
But there seems to be flaws in this strategy, within the Muslim community itself. After Afghanistan and Iraq were liberated from oppressive dictators, there was no sign of hatred of the west and support of Osama Bin Laden. As far as I can tell, there is no elaborate deception. There is certainly religious bigotry such as Afghanistan sentencing a Christian convert to death. But I can remember Karzai in Pakistan being asked something by an anti-freedom Pakistani journalist and he was outraged and said something along the lines of "come back in the plane with me Madam and I'll show you what the terrorists have done to my country". And Karzai is mad about the Taliban being harboured in Pakistan. And Waheed from Afghan Warrior is also mad as hell.
I haven't been able to fully question Waheed, but from the questioning I have done, he completely invents things in the Quran like "it says men and women should both work" and comes up with a convoluted explanation for the limited things I have quoted from the Quran the same way that Christians manage to maintain a straight face as they explain why the bible says to stone your own children to death if they are disobedient. It's breathtaking.
And before Waheed I can remember reading newspaper reports of Afghan kids being taught about fighting the infidels and saying that they don't want to learn crap like that, they want to learn English. It provides some insight into the mentality. And this is all before they've even been exposed to a modern education and freedom of speech and the internet. I think we can avoid the genocide step in Afghanistan if we're careful.
However, the same can't be said of the Pakistanis, who are against the liberation of Afghanistan. And much of the Arab world too. They are hostile actors spoiling for a fight. But not the Iraqis. So we've done two good liberations so far, uncovering allies. This was actually expected all along. Iraqis have no history of religious extremism. That was always going to be our highest concentration of allies. And we did it first. :-) And we're expecting allies in Iran too. Islamofascism isn't all it's cracked up to be when you actually have to live under it.
I've been chatting to a Lebanese Hizbullah supporter. He is pure evil, just like Mohammed. Nasrallah is his hero and he tried to get me to put Nasrallah's picture as my desktop. I told him I would put NATO's flag on my desktop and he should be heroworshipping science rather than a human. He didn't believe the wrestling was faked either. He needs to be shot like a rabid dog. As do Pakistanis I have chatted to. And many more. Although before we do that, we do need to see if we can invade them and change the education of children, to see what effect that has. Basically we are in dire need of more data. We need lots more feedback before we start killing people.
