Donald Trump is being condemned by domestic and international
leaders for supposedly calling for a ban on legal immigration of Muslim people
to America on the grounds that he is calling for blatant discrimination based
on the religious beliefs. I suggest that the condemners need to put more
thought into their position before their make their next public comment on the
matter.
The Islamic Revolution arose in Iran and overthrew the government of that nation
and replaced it with a dictatorship consisting of various levels of Islamic
clergy and headed by a Supreme Leader who holds the ultimate power and
authority over the government and the people. It has been anything but tolerant
of views diverging from the strict interpretation of Islamic law by
the....Supreme Leader. Although the Islamic Revolution began and was initially
confined to conquering Iran, there has been persistent evidence that the
leaders of the new Iran plan to extend their rule over far more than the
territory of Iran.
Lest there be any doubt, the bold and thus far effective leadership of the
new Islamic military organization known as ISIS (Daesh to some) recently announced its formal plan to extend Islamic dictatorship to
territory that now includes large areas of Africa, Europe and Spain, and India
and beyond.
Thousands of innocent American citizens have been killed by what are called
terrorist acts, which are acts of first degree murder against civilians carried out by followers of Islam in the name of Islam, often
justified by quoting text in the Quran that advocates killing non believers.
Among the often cited verses is this one: "Kill the idolaters
wherever you find them, and capture them, and blockade them, and watch for them
at every lookout..." (Quran 9:5). Apologists and defenders claim this verse is taken out of context. But
the murder of innocent people continues and they are not isolated incidents. They are acts of war committed name of Islam.
This brings me to the point of this post. America is at war. American
leaders say we are at war against terrorism
because they are too neutered by their political correctness to speak the truth and
say we are at war with Islamic terrorism. The enemy is Islamic terrorists and everyone who gives aid and comfort and support in any way to the ones
doing the killing. In the same way that German people were motivated by Hitler and NAZI propaganda to slaughter innocent civilians, the warriors of the Islamic Revolution in all of its movements are motivated by the Quran and the Islamic religion. It is unfortunate that our leaders have quailed and obfuscated the truth that the terrorists are Islamic because that has allowed the enemy in this war to empty their hands of arms and identify themselves as persecuted members of a religion when it is convenient to their purposes.
In America our 1st Amendment to the Constitution prohibits the government from
enacting any law to favor or inhibit the exercise of a religion. All developed nations have
similar laws. The separation of church and state is a fundamental principle that is necessary to establish a stable prosperous nation.
The Islamic terrorists are using their religious affiliation as a Trojan Horse: By wrapping their cause
in a religion, they are pursuing a strategy that uses the 1st Amendment to protect their organization by preventing the American government from taking legal action against
the Islamic invasion and the Islamic Revolution.
When
World War II broke out no patriot could object when the government revoked the
visas and deported NAZIs and suspected NAZI sympathizers. That was the right
thing to do to secure the nation and protect our citizens. Defense of the nation, the government and the citizens is paramount because if the government falls all of the constitutional rights and freedoms it protects are lost.
Americans have waited in vain for the Muslim community of America and the
world to speak out and condemn Islamic terrorism, expel the killers from their
religion and their community, and to support law enforcement efforts to identify
the killers and their supporters. We have waited in vain for a supposedly civilized and tolerant mainstream Muslim community to forcefully distinguish itself from the supposedly minority faction doing the killing in the name of the religion. If the words of the Quran are taken seriously, there can be no tolerant Muslim community. According to the Quran, Islam does not tolerate non-believers; it states that Muslims have a duty to banish and kill non-believers. This inherent intolerance is why so many areas of the world inhabited by significant numbers of Muslims rarely enjoy peace. Only when they are a small minority will Muslims quietly tolerate non-believers.
Innocent Americans continue to be killed. Our government has a duty to protect our citizens
and defend our nation. Since there is no certain way to distinguish an Islamic person who
is in any way sympathetic to Islamic terrorism and terrorist causes, it is
wrong for our government to allow any person known to be affiliated with the
Islamic religion into our country, and when they do, and the immigrants kill innocent Americans, the politicians and bureaucrats to allowed it to happen share the guilt. It is insane for the American Government to put innocent American civilians at risk of murder and mayhem for the sake of respecting the supposedly innocent foreign Muslims who come from nations where their true identify often cannot be reliably determined, much less their political affiliations that they wish to hide.
So to all those who so quickly and loudly spoke out to condemn Trump’s supposed plan to ban
Muslim immigration (and thus ennoble themselves), I say to you: If the NAZIs had called their beliefs a
religion, if they had compiled Mein Kampf the Wannsee Protocol and The Final Solution as books
in their Holy Bible, and if the NAZI leaders clothed themselves in turbans and robes and called Hitler "Der Ayatollah", would we
have been noble and wise to respect their religion and let them and their supporters remain in America?
