Islam's goal is to dominate Western society and replace Western constitutions, laws, and institutions with Muslim domination and submission to Islam. This can only be accomplished in degrees, through 'moderate' front organisations and with the connivance of the Western elite and political class. “Moderate” Muslims exist only to the extent that the cult in the host Western state is weak. Once Muslims break through a certain population threshold [say 10-25%]; the 'moderate' nature of their activity takes on swaggering intolerance and demands from the host state. Witness modern Little England, in which halal meat, the most barbaric form of animal treatment in preparation for killing imaginable, is now the meat served in public stadiums, school cafeterias and governmental offices. How kind, how tolerant, how bloody stupid. What is Dhimmitude?
Dhimmitude: 'The status that Islamic law, the Sharia, mandates for non-Muslims, primarily Jews and Christians. Dhimmis, ‘protected people’, are free to practice their religion in a Sharia regime, but are made subject to a number of humiliating regulations designed to enforce the Qur'an's command that they ‘feel themselves subdued’ (Sura 9:29). Dhimmitude is in essence social, political and tax enslavement of non-Muslims. This denial of equality of rights and dignity remains part of the Sharia, and, as such, are part of the law that global jihadists are laboring to impose everywhere, ultimately on the entire human race.'
Dhimmitude is submission to Islam. It can be informal or gradual. No one expects a future Hussein Obama to prostrate the US congress before the Koran. But neither should anyone be surprised if a future Hussein Obama was to advocate the funding of Muslim schools; an increase in hate-crime legislation to protect Muslim sensitivities; and a withdrawal from an aggressive war against Islamic extremism. Votes, media support, and Muslim empathy are important factors to the populist politician. Even in America. Or maybe today we can say, especially in America.
Dhimmitude should be a major concern to every Western citizen. Islamic and Arab culture bring little but poverty, violence and oppression. The barrenness of Islam is a historical fact evident since its inception. The Muslim Golden Age was a myth, with the only true multi-cult Christian-Arab civilisation which produced science, intelligence, goods and services benefiting the mass was that of 12th century Norman Siciliy - a Christian state and one over-romanticized by the pious multi-cult. But the key element in the Norman kingdom was its Christianity. This allowed for an integration of cultures and ideas to co-exist. No corollary to Guiscard Sicily can be found anywhere within Islamic history, including 'Cordoba'. A cursory reading of the Muslim Jihad in Spain, would put that ridiculous myth to rest.
Islam and Greater Arabia has been an unmitigated disaster for 1400 years as the endless Jihad, barbarity against Blacks, Whites, women and Jews clearly identifies. Today unsurprisingly, nearly 50% of Arabs and citizens in Muslim states are illiterate according to UN and Arab League reports. This would help explain the poverty of Islam, its violence and outright stupidity and anti-modern attitude of the Arab-Islamic cult. But it does not excuse the morbid vapidity of Western policy and Dhimmitude attitudes which pervades the West and its so-called elite. Being Dhimmis, or a subservient 'tolerant' civility, to a cult of dummies, is one would be prone to say, not very rational nor necessary.
There are upwards of 30-35 million Muslims in ghettoes throughout Western Europe, or about 10-15% of Western Europe's population. Lying government figures in Canada put the number of Muslims at just 700.000 and in the US at a-hard-to-believe 2-3 million. Considering that in Toronto alone, there resides at least 400.000 Muslims of 'legal' residency, one can dismiss government figures as unseemly propaganda. Independent research puts the number of Muslims in Canada, including domestic converts amongst the Black population at upwards of 2 million and in the US at about 7 million. These numbers would appear to be far closer to reality, representing 8% of the population in Canada, and 2.5 % in the US. Many people dispute these numbers but they are likely far more accurate than the 'don't worry, there is nothing to fear' citations from 'tolerant and diverse' US and Canadian politicians.
The classic multi-cult response to domineering and demanding Islam is to feverishly point out that if only 3% to 15% of the population is Islamic, we don't have much to worry about. This might be broadly true if the population of Muslims was static compared to the rest. But it is not. As Mark Steyn and others endlessly point out, the Muslim population is generating 4 babies on average per Muslim woman whilst the Dhimmi population is stagnant. 'Fetching' or bringing over more than one woman as a wife for the same man is rampant throughout Europe; and some illogical Western states keep importing an increasing percentage of immigrants from Muslim countries including Somalia, Pakistan, Bangladesh, Egypt, Iran, Iraq and Syria. Given these realities the Muslim population in all Western states will absolutely explode over the next 25 years. Expect it to double.
Soon Muslims will comprise 50% of the youth in Europe and more than 20% of the population in Canada, and 15 % in the US. Once this happens, what do you think will occur with the political-social-economic and most importantly military and foreign affairs policies? Once Muslims reach a threshold do you really believe that Islamic intolerance will nicely morph into multi-cultural love?
It is truly bizarre.
Dhimmitude, or subservience to Islam by non-Islamic peoples, outside of war necessarily happens in stages. Islam is not a faith in the Western-Christian sense, it is an ideology of power, control and submission to the Arabian moon deity ali-ilah, Allah. Allah controls all. Human free will and individuality are inimical to the Arab cult.
Dhimmitude and its societal torpor has already taken over much of Europe. Muslim demands for separate schools; state funding of mosques; state funding of Islamic curricula at university; hate speech laws against Muslims [but not against European whites, or Christians]; and a de-facto recognition that some areas heavily populated by Muslims are Islamic lands [this is the Millett system, wherein Muslims own the land regardless of land title if they are a majority in the area]; have all been granted. Yet the Muslim populations in France, the UK, Holland, Denmark and elsewhere remained aggrieved. Rapes, murders, intifadas, violence and assaults on the police and state reveal that the Arab-Muslim population in Europe and beyond is feeling strong enough to challenge the European nation state.
The same is happening in North America where the Muslim population is thankfully much smaller. Calls in North America for EU-styled Dhimmitude are legion usually by Islamo-fascist groups and those with ties to Islamic 'terror' such as ISNA, MSA and CAIR whom the media regard as 'moderate' [I suppose moderate National Socialists and Communists were also feted by the elite]. Hate crimes are being prosecuted against bloggers, authors and web-sites for criticising Islam, in many cases just for repeating what Muslims are saying, or quoting directly from the Koran. This has been a policy in Europe for some years. In North America Muslims are demanding what their brethren have in Europe – separate areas; baths and schools; state funding of schools and curricula; and even a recognition of Sharia Law. Dhimmitude is their goal even though they only comprise less than 10% of the population.
Like the certainty of a future ice age, Dhimmitude happens in fits and starts is a gradual process. This ultimately is the consequence of the vapid multi-cultural fetish. With no majoritarian culture; a hatred of Western history and achievement; a ridiculous cultish belief in cultural and moral relativity, the end of empire is only a matter of time. Rome crumbled from within before it was breached from outside.
When you replace in English schools British history lessons and try to erase the legacy of Winston Churchill in an attempt to accommodate 'other viewpoints' and instead teach impressionable English children Urdu, Arabic and the wonderments of Islam, the end is closer than you think.
