Life changing for Muslims

Osama Saeed, writing for The Guardian, says it's Blair's responsibility to stop Muslim terrorism, not Muslims. If the truth is 10, and an untruth 1, this garbage is -15.

From Saeed’s piece:


    This is why I've found it strange that many Muslim leaders have offered to look deep within our community now. It's a tacit admission of negligence that I simply do not accept. The prime minister has of course welcomed this attitude. Indeed he has led from the front, ratcheting up the rhetoric against Muslims, laying the responsibility solely on us. "In the end, this can only be taken on and defeated by the community itself," he said last week.

I'm pleased to see that leaders of the free world feel the same way I do on the issue of Muslims cleaning their own house.

Saeed’s next paragraph begins: “Mr Blair has attacked the idea of the caliphate - the equivalent of criticising the Pope.”

Caliphate

I don’t know if it’s the equivalent of criticizing the Pope, but I do know that attacking the idea of the caliphate comes from knowledge of the caliphate. It’s a 7th century Muslim empire that stretched across the Mediterranean in the West, and deep into what is now India in the East (map here). Osama bin Laden and other Al-Qaeda captains have declared that resurrecting this caliphate is their goal, and it guides all their actions. In addition, many other terror organizations worldwide have said their purpose is to remake the caliphate.

The caliphate will remain a pipe dream for radical Muslims killers. No one in a sane frame of mind is going to entertain the thought of Muslim fundamentalists controlling a huge swath of land, on which presently sit dozens of independent nations -- such as Spain and India.

Afghanistan under the Taliban was the closest thing to a caliphate the world has seen in almost 1000 years, and thanks to a Muslim murderer operation conducted on the morning of Sept. 11, 2001, there will never be anything like it again. It’s also terribly ironic that Taliban rule forbade a free press. Saeed would have been rounded up and beheaded, with his head used as the ball in an impromptu soccer match, had he dared speak against the style of government he lusts after.

Using Western freedoms to condemn Western freedom will, with absolutely no doubt, fail as a long-term strategy for those like Saeed.

Instead of listening to Saeed’s garbage, I think we need an answer to a question: Where was Saeed on July 7, 2005?

Choices

Muslims living in Western (modern, free) nations have two choices: wash your own dirty laundry or stop bitching about how others are doing it. Gitmo, racial profiling, preemptive strikes against terrorist strongholds, and Falluja-style attacks against hives of terrorists are how we're dealing with it.

Muslims know what they have to do. Or do they? Are they still counting on ubertolerance? Well, boys, tolerance is fading like a candle in the wind. Every time Muslims kill innocents, life will get more and more difficult for the average Muslim. I’m not saying it’s right, and I don’t necessarily support tightening restrictions on all Muslims, but what are people supposed to do, allow their families to be butchered like hogs at the slaughterhouse?

I wonder how long Muslims are going to remain indignant at their treatment, and be angry about Fallujah and Gitmo? I’m quite sure that with each of these Muslim atrocities (like London x2, and now Egypt), the mainstream Western public inches closer to responding, “Fuck off.”

And I don’t understand what Muslims believe they’re doing for themselves by whimpering in "papers" like The Guardian. If these articles are supposed to act as a counterbalance to the negative effects Muslim bombings are having on the Muslim community, it‘s not working.

Background on The Guardian

The Guardian is Al-Qaeda's UK-based public relations agency, just as Aljazeera is the terror organization’s PR agency for the Middle East; CNN is the American bureau. Each of these three is conducting a love-fest with terrorists, but only as far as the surrounding culture allows. Each appeals to the most extreme liberal elements.

Aljazeera, sitting in the midst of Muslim extremists, pulls no punches in their support of Al-Qaeda and anything anti-American. If you don’t believe me, read it online.

The Guardian's rhetoric is one notch down. The predominantly liberal Brits are far less tolerant of Western-hating garbage, but they're much more tolerant than Americans. Proof is seen in Omar Bakri, a “cleric” who has soaked up the British dole for 19 years while preaching the overthrow of Britain in the streets of London. Finally we're starting to see a shift in public thinking thanks to the most recent activities of Muslims.

CNN is the most professional and seemingly centrist of the trio, and that's because the American public have seen dozens of Muslim attacks against Americans in the last few decades, culminating with the un-ignorable and unforgivable 9/11. The casual viewer will think CNN is moderate, but after three straight years of telling and showing viewing audiences how absolutely horrible the Iraq war is, especially one led by a Republican against Muslims, the cat came out of the bag. CNN is the same as Aljazeera, but with the language and care dictated by the larger culture surrounding them.

The Guardian, meanwhile, sustains itself with sensationalized reporting, so it's difficult to be sure if Saeed's views mirror the British Muslim community. If it does, then Brit Muslims can expect a change for the worse.
