What Islam Has In Store For Us

Anyone who thinks Islam could peacefully co-exist with other religions needs to read what clerics and the radicals (who would govern if Islamofacists were to win their "holy war" have to say about how things would be. The title of the article is vaguely amusing, but the body certainly isn't (excerpts from http://www.worldnetdaily.com/news/article.asp?ARTICLE_ID=58570)

Terrorists describe U.S. bound by Islam

Mideast terror leaders describe day-to-day life in the U.S. if al-Qaida won the war on terror.

"Once Islam dominates, anyone living inside the Islamic state must abide by our rules. There is no choice. You will abide or face the punishment," said Muhammad Abdel-El, the spokesman and a senior leader of the Popular Resistance Committees terror organization.

Sheik Abu Saqer, a prominent Gaza-based preacher, a founder of the Sword of Islam terror group and a subscriber to the ideology of al-Qaida, explained if Islam controls the U.S., all American women, whether Muslim or not, must cover their hair.

"This is the demand of our religion. Being and walking naked doesn't mean that you are enjoying more freedom; it means that you are going against Allah's laws and you are serving the enemies of Islam who want to empty our Islamic society from its values. Uncovered heads is a form of nudity."

Yasser Hamad, a cleric and a Hamas leader in the northern West Bank, explained in "Schmoozing" Islamic law enforcers would at first try to persuade American woman to cover their heads, but eventually females would be forced. Those women who refuse may be stoned.

Asked whether stoning was too harsh a punishment, Hamad replied: "If you don't respect the local law in America, if you don't pay taxes, if you drive on a red light, aren't there sanctions used against you by your government? Of course there are, and it's okay with you. Why is there a problem when it comes to the Islamic state that wants to impose its rules?"

Hamad and other terror leaders stated all Jews and Christians living in the U.S. once Islam takes over would need to pay the jizya – a special protection tax – and other special taxes for non-Muslims, including one for the right to cultivate land. Non-Muslims cannot own land themselves.

Saqer said no new synagogues or churches can be built in the Islamic state. Existing houses of worship may remain, but services cannot be conducted loudly or in any public fashion. The ringing of church bells or blowing of the ceremonial Jewish shofar would be forbidden, the terror leaders said.

Asked about crime and punishment, Hamad explained, "For every sin and crime there is a sanction."

And much, much more. This is not some made-up doctrine from a supposed "expert". This is the philosophy from the mouths of those who would run the whole show. Supporters and potential supporters need to know the thoughts of those they want us to negotiate with. We all need to know the ultimate goal of those whom our media put in the best light possible, ignoring their atrocities and hypocrisy. We need to understand heads of state like Ahmadinejad in Iran and Assad in Syria, as well as "leaders" like Rantisi of Hamas and Nasrallah of Hezbolla. These are the people who would be the leaders of an Islamic-dominated world, which is their ultimate goal. These are the people our press makes excuses for and whose words and often heinous acts are downplayed or ignored.

"Moderate" Muslims need to decry these fanatics who have hijacked their religion, and Christians, Jews, and all other religions need to hold these "moderates" accountable for allowing this hatred from their leaders to continue unchallenged. It can be understood why Iranians and Palestinians may be hesitant to denounce these maniacs, but those in free nations such as the US and Great Britain have absolutely no excuse for their inaction.
