Good article by Robert Satloff: "Just Like Us! Really?"
http://www.washingtoninstitute.org/policy-analysis/view/just-like-us-reallyHis article regards the pro-Islam propaganda of John L. Esposito, founding director of Georgetown University's Prince Alwaleed bin Talal Center for Muslim-Christian Understanding, and Dalia Mogahed, executive director of the Gallup Center for Muslim Studies.
The polling was intended to create the impression that Muhammad's followers are just like everybody else in the world. And while essentially non-practicing Muslims, "
hypocrites" and "renegades" may be a bit more like the rest of us, true, fundamental, orthodox, Muslims will continue to try to do, and be, just like the man they follow did and/or prescribed.
Muhammad's followers are obviously the most dissimilar to Christians, because Islam is a specifically counter-gospel, antichrist, anti-religion.The academic vainly wishes Muhammad's true followers were like non-Muslims in spite of the fact that: "Sunni Muslim terrorists committed “about 70 percent†of the 12,533 terrorist murders in the world last year, according to a report by the National Counterterrorism Center (NCTC)."
That's just for the year 2012 and doesn't even include Shiite terrorist murders.
http://www.falseprophetmuhammad.com/jihad_islamic_terrorism.htmThe poor fellow vainly wishes Muhammad's true followers were like the rest of us, in spite of all of the polls by more reliable pollsters, that weren't driven by an Islam-white-washing politically correct academic dhimmi:
http://www.falseprophetmuhammad.com/jihad_islamic_terrorism.htm#muslim_pollsJohn L. Esposito wasted 6 years (as Dalia Mogahed's pet dhimmi?), polling Muslims around the world in an effort to legitimize his preposterous premise, by trying to segregate into two groups "moderate" "everyday" Muslims, from those that are in their words "politically radicalized" which folks in this forum recognize as
orthodox Muslims that do as Muhammad did and commanded his followers to do just as is taught by the largest Islamic universities.
I'll defer to Robert Satloff's article:
"What gives
Who Speaks for Islam? its aura of credibility is that its answers are allegedly based on hard data, not taxi-driver anecdotes from a quick visit to Cairo. The book draws on a mammoth, six-year effort to poll and interview tens of thousands of Muslims in more than 35 countries with Muslim majorities or substantial minorities. The polling sample, Esposito and Mogahed claim, represents "more than 90 percent of the world's 1.3 billion Muslims."
To back up the claim, the book bears the name of the gold-standard of American polling firms, Gallup.The answer to that all-important question, the authors say, is 7 percent. That is the percentage of Muslims who told pollsters that the attacks of September 11, 2001, were "completely" justified and who said they view the United States unfavorably -- the double-barreled litmus test devised by Esposito and Mogahed to determine who is radical and who isn't.The authors don't actually call even these people "radicals," however; the term they use is "politically radicalized," which implies that someone else is responsible for turning these otherwise ordinary Muslims into bin Laden sympathizers. By contrast,
Muslims who said the 9/11 attacks were "not justified" they term "moderates.""
So as long as a Muslim claims they believe, the murder of 3,000 innocent people was not "completely justified", we're expected to consider them "moderate"???
And how many answered that the 9-11 attackers weren't justified, not because of the innocents that were slaughtered, but because suicide is non-Islamic?
Why would they squander 6 years with a 9-11 and U.S.-centered question?
Even then they came up with a whopping
7 percent, that thought the targeting and murder of 3,000 innocent civilians was justified, which is well over a hundred million Muslims!And majorities are irrelevant since the greatest evils that have been perpetrated upon mankind have been by reprobate murderous minorities. What western Muslim standing naked, would argue with with a true, fundamental, orthodox Muslim scholar from the Middle East cradle of Islam, armed with a beheading knife in one hand and whose orthodoxy is perfectly supported by a Quran and the Hadith in his other hand?
https://youtu.be/Ry3NzkAOo3sObviously, the important questions that should have been asked of Muslims around the world are non-U.S.-centered questions like:
"Do you believe that terrorism is a legitimate Islamic practice?"Which of course should be answered unanimously with a resounding "yes", with the exception of those suffer from abject ignorance, mental incapacitation, or are
lying in the way of Allah. Or are perhaps just more
voluntary dhimmi dupes like the
misguided academic that prepared this propaganda and Gallup for gracing it with even a shred of legitimacy, since Muhammad was a conveniently self-admitted terrorist (while Muslims must believe that his "Allah" was the terrorist and Muhammad just his hands):
Surah 8:12
I will instill terror into the hearts of the unbelievers: smite ye above their necks and smite all their finger-tips off themhttp://www.falseprophetmuhammad.com/jihad_islamic_terrorism.htm#terrorOr how about asking:
"Do you believe that it is Islam's mission to rule the world?"Which of course should be greeted with a unanimous "yes". Which would also mean the end of Christianity, Judaism, Hunduism, atheism, agnosticism, etc., just as is the case in Islamic countries today. Or at best dhimmitude and tolerating Christians and Jews while bleeding them for a little while, with wholesale slaughter of the rest.
Or perhaps if they had asked:
"Do you favor sharia law?"Since
a majority of even U.S. Muslims say they would choose Islamic sharia law over our United States Constitution. After all, what's so "radical" about reduced rights for women, killing homosexuals, Hindus and atheists or cutting folks hands off for stealing?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6fbXvq_ZIbwThe simple truth is that Muslims believe in the imperialistic conquest of the non-Islamic world by Islam, it's just that a majority of them are too scared or lazy or perhaps even too moral or ethical, to
do as Muhammad did and called them to do, and so they let their fellow Muslims do the heavy lifting of Jihad. Muhammad had words for them as well:
Surah 2.216
fighting is prescribed for you, and ye dislike it. But it is possible that ye dislike a thing which is good for you, and that ye love a thing which is bad for you. But Allah knoweth, and ye know not.
