It is a curious fact, probably uttered for purely political reasons, that many 'experts' claim that Al Qaeda is not 'Islam'. Sorry to disagree but I have read the Al Qaeda reader [an excellent book, from which we will post information], and the entire Al Qaeda project is based on the Koran and is simply an expression of Moslem fundamentalism which was initiated and followed by none other than its founder, the political-military leader Muhammad. As Bill Warner writes:
“Mohammed’s example was crystal clear. According to the Sira, the sacred biography of Mohammed, he was involved in over 65 acts of jihad, or as we say today, 65 acts of terror. And that was in a 9 year period. Bin Laden was small fry, in comparison to Mohammed.”
Bin Laden was a terrorist, but so too was Mohammed who famously declared that he had conquered Arabia through terror.
The Koran has 164 direct verses promoting Jihad. Well over 200 if you add in the more indirect verses demanding violence against Unbelievers. This is over 1/3 of the entire book. Islam was spread entirely by war and violence. In the first 150 years of Moslem history tens of millions of non-Muslims were enslaved, killed, or forcibly converted to Islam, many converting to escape the extraordinarily harsh tax and social system foisted by Muslims on non-Believers.
“Why are we being told that Bin Laden was not a real Muslim? The propaganda is that violence has nothing to do with Islam. But Islam is based on Mohammed and he was violent in every way. He assassinated those who opposed him, enslaved thousands and sold them for money to wage jihad, he tortured men to death for money, tortured slaves to get information from them, created a policy of rape of Kafir women and on and on. The only reason to call Bin Laden a non-Muslim is that he did not do enough jihad. Oops, pardon me, terror.”
Violence has everything to do with Islam and with Mohammed. Bin Laden and his ilk are simply doing what the Koran demands and following the most-perfect-man in history, Mr. Muhammad. There are of course many similarities between Mein Kampf and the Koran, though in our cultural Marxist world we are not allowed to state that obvious fact. Pagan Fascisms are similar regardless of time and space. Hitler was a sociopathic terrorist and carpet-biting pagan Fascist. Mohammed was his ancient precursor.
Leader:
Mein Kampf, p. 763: "One must never forget that everything that is actually great in this world has not been fought for and won by coalitions, but always by the success of One Individual victor. The religious State will never be created by compromise but only by the steel-hard willpower of one sole movement which has struggled its way against all others."
Qur'an 48.1 "Verily We have granted you (Muhammad) a splendid Victory.
Qur'an 48.8 "We have truly sent you (Muhammad) as a witness, as a bringer of Good News, and as a Warner: In order that you (men) may believe in Allah and His Messenger, that you may assist him and honor him, and celebrate His praise morning and evening."
Violence:
Mein Kampf, p.798: "What we need is not one hundred daring plotters, but many hundreds of thousands of fanatical fighters for our view of life."
Mein Kampf, p. 801: "Give the German nation six million bodies, faultlessly trained, all of them glowing with passion for the highest spirit of attack, and we will have an army."
Qur'an 47.4 "Therefore, when you clash with the unbelieving Infidels in battle, strike them and overpower them. At length, when you have thoroughly subdued them, make them prisoners in bondage until the war lays down its burdens. Thus are you commanded. He lets you fight in order to test you. But those who are slain in Allah's Cause will never have their deeds go to waste."
Both founding documents of the Hitler and Mohamed cults preach the same thing. 'We the cult' are divinely inspired. I the leader have a divine contract and contact that no other will ever have. Follow me and we will spread our brave new world. Those who follow and fight are on our behalf will go to paradise. Those who obstruct us must be killed. Submit, ritualise and obey.
Islam is at its core a fascist paganism. So too of course was Hitlerism. The two differ only in emphasis, racial supremacism, and implementational details. Hitler's goal was to create a new Mecca in Europe to which the bondage states would pay homage. He most likely read the Koran and most likely understood the basic timelines of Mohamed's life. It is highly unlikely that Hitler's program, which is so similar to Islam's, was created by happenstance. It was a deliberate creation, one modeled on a successful psychopath a man named Mohamed, whose legions today are still fighting for the Meccan moon cult deity, 'Allah'. Hitler's program ended after 12 years. Mohamed's after 14 centuries, is still going strong.
Bin Laden was a true Muslim of course. He was just following the 164 verses of Jihad in Mohammed's document named Recital.
