WHY ARE MUSLIMS SO ANGRY, AND WHY DO THEY WAGE JIHAD? - Yoram Ettinger: Is violence part of Islam?

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
A sight that reoccurs with heartbreaking regularity in the terrorized streets of Europe.  Men do NOT protect their women and children.  They grieve after the carnage and repeat meaningless slogans, but continue to allow their treasonous political leadership to keep their borders open to millions of migrants, too many of whom are intent on destroying their culture and raping and killing their loved ones.   
  • Why do we need to educate ourselves about Islam? 
  • Europe will have a Muslim majority in twenty or thirty years. 
  • Nuclear countries such as France and Britain will be among the first in western Europe to have a Muslim majority.
  • Islam is the fastest growing religion on the planet.
  • There are now 1.8 BILLION Muslims influencing policy all over the world.  Their large polygamous families with many children will outpace the slow demographic growth of all other ethnic groups. 
  • Western governments and national institutions are implementing an aggressive program of affirmative action, in an effort to include Muslim citizens at all levels of authority.  This allows a relatively small number of Muslims to exercise significant influence in governmental and cultural policies.  
  • Will there ever be peace in Islam?  The Shia-Sunni conflict based on a 7th century dispute over rights of succession to Muhammad has resulted in 1400 years of Muslim-on-Muslim carnage.  It will never be resolved, and the violence will continue forever.
  • While the West has contributed to almost all current advances in science, technology, and human rights, Islam has not, in part due to its orthodoxy forbidding independent and rational thinking.   
  • A world where individuals with a 7th century mindset of jihad can inherit western science, technology, and nuclear armaments is the stuff of nightmares.
  • It is a certainty now that Europe will become Islamized.  Election results show that in spite of living in a climate of terror and fear, the population does not have the will to defend their borders, their children, their women, and their culture.  The Europe we knew is dying by suicide. 
  • On the following article Ambassador Yoram Ettinger, regular columnist and an expert on Middle East politics and Islam, asks some pertinent questions about Islam.

Is Violence Part of Islam?
 


Ambassador (ret.) Yoram Ettinger is consultant to Israel’s Cabinet members and Israeli legislators, and lecturer in the U.S., Canada and Israel on Israel’s unique contributions to American interests, the foundations of U.S.-Israel relations, the Iranian threat, and Jewish-Arab issues.

Excerpts of topics discussed on his column:
  • Since September 11, 2001, there have been 31,722 Islamic terrorist attacks, mostly hitting Muslims.
  • In August, 2017, there were 180 Islamic terrorist attacks in 32 countries, resulting in 1,014 murdered and 1,090 injured. 
  • Eleven million Muslims have been killed since 1948, of which 35,000 (0.3%) were killed during Arab-Israeli wars.  Over 90% were killed by fellow Muslims.
  • Why is Muslim violence intensifying in Europe despite the goodwill showered upon the Muslim world and Muslim immigrants by most European governments and societies?
  • Is the current hate-education and anti-“infidel” incitement in Muslim kindergartens, schools and mosques at variance or consistent with Islam?
  • Is there anything we can do to bring peace to Islam?  According to eminent expert, and author, Professor Bernard Lewis, Muslims have a religious obligation to engage in a perpetual state of holy jihad in the name of Allah, which will continue until the whole world either accepts the message of Islam or submits as second-class citizens to the rule of those who bring it.

UK RECLASSIFYING PRO-ISRAEL WEBSITES AS "HATE SITES" - The UK continues its long tradition of anti-Semitism now bolstered by its ever growing anti-Semitic migrant population

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
It is common knowledge that sites such as Twitter and Facebook have a blatant double standard:  they censor anti-Palestinian comments while they give a wide platform to anti-Israel and anti-Jewish ones.
 
Some time ago an Israeli NGO conducted THE FACEBOOK EXPERIMENT.  It opened two new separate pages on Facebook, one anti-Israel and the other anti-Palestinian.  They used exactly the same hateful language, except that they referred to either Jews or Arabs.  Facebook rushed to censor the anti-Palestinian site, while they let the anti-Israeli one stand because it did not violate community standards.   The Facebook Experiment is exposed on this VIDEO:

The same double standard exists on mainstream media, particularly on the BBC, CNN, and other similar news websites.  Typically they headline the death of Palestinians, and only as an afterthought - if at all - the fact that they were killed in the act of slaughtering Jews.  Here is a recent example: 


 
 
BBC DENOUNCED:  Former BBC chairman Lord Michael Grade exposes BBC’s coverage of Israel, and anti-Israel terror as ‘inexcusable’, saying, “When Israel acts in self-defense, the narrative is distorted to fit their (the media) narrative of Zionist aggression.”  Read more:

TERRORISTS WELCOME - Britain has allowed in, and even given legal residency and citizenship to tens of thousands of jihadis who incite against Jews and against Britons themselves.  However the British government bars entry to foreign moderate commentators who criticize Islamic terror.  One of them  is well-known radio host Michael Savage.  Also banned from British soil are US anti-Sharia activist Pamela Geller and Robert Spencer. 
 
 
PM Theresa May and previous governments have also condemned Muslim terror at home, but they donate millions to the Palestinian Authority, which uses that money to pay salaries to convicted murderers of Jewish men, women and children.  If killed during their acts of terror, the terrorists' families receive generous salaries.  Killing Jews, according to Theresa May and other donors such as the United States and EU countries, is not regarded as terror but as resistance.

The following article was posted by Edgar Davidson on his BLOG on July 5, 2017 -  The website he refers to below,  THIS ONGOING WAR, focuses on acts of terror in Israel, and uses moderate language.  Visit this site and see for yourself.  So, why would reporting on Palestinian terror be considered hate?  Britain and others seem to think so.

IS PEACE BETWEEEN ISRAEL AND THE ARABS POSSIBLE? - Are Palestinians different from ISIS? Read comparison chart

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Recently president Trump visited the Middle East and his message to Arab countries was "DRIVE OUT THE TERRORISTS".    His message to Israel was "GIVE THEM A STATE". 
 
The incongruity and unfairness of Trump's position have not been properly exposed because so much of the public has been literally brainwashed by years of pro-Palestinian propaganda and the acceptance of their myths as "facts".
 
One of those myths concerns ownership of the land.  Although Jews have a  3,000 year history in Israel - including established Jewish kingdoms - it is the Muslim invader's claim to the land that is regarded as legitimate, relegating Jews to the role of "occupiers".    This lie, repeated long enough, has become an established 'fact'. 
 
A second myth characterizes Israelis as 'Nazis' and Palestinians as innocent victims of genocide.   In fact, Palestinians were close allies of the Nazis during World War II, and their leader, the Mufti of Jerusalem, worked with Hitler to include the slaughter of Middle Eastern Jews in the Holocaust.   The Nazi ideology is strong among Palestinians to this day.  Germans were vilified after the war, but their accomplices, the Palestinians, have been pampered by the West and promised a state of their own on Jewish land.
 
 VIDEO - The Nazis and the Palestinian Movement
The Palestinian active role in the Holocaust.
 
 
Another myth is that of apartheid in Israel.  Arabs with Israeli citizenship enjoy the same rights as Israeli Jews.  They are free to live and go anywhere they want.  They are entitled to the same kinds of government services.  They have jobs such as judges, police officers, professors, journalists, members of parliament ....   Arab women have more freedoms than in Muslim countries. 
 
And the biggest myth of all is that land for peace is possible.  It is part of Muslim ideology that once a land is conquered by Islam, it belongs to them forever.  If it is lost in battle, then it is the duty of every Muslim to reconquer it. 
 
Thus you hear of the Muslim goal of reconquering Spain and other parts of Europe that were once part of the Caliphate.   Unable to do it militarily, Muslims are simply resettling these lands by the millions, thanks to the Europeans willing acceptance of this peaceful invasion.

Abu Yehuda writes:
As long as there is Jewish sovereignty over what is seen as Muslim land, there will be an obligation for Muslims to pursue jihad to re-impose Islamic domination and Islamic law over it. Not all Muslim Arabs are prepared to engage in violent jihad, but many are.   The Palestinians have shown, over and over, that they are prepared to kill and die for their perceived honor and their religion. The combination of the ideology of Palestinism with the religion of Islam and the honor-shame Arab culture has closed the door to a negotiated compromise solution.
That is why the creation of a Palestinian state is bound to unleash a catastrophe for Israel.  From the Muslim perspective, there can be no peace until the last Jew has been murdered or driven out and the land of Israel is fully Islamic.  All interim agreements in the name of peace are simply steps towards that goal.  Palestinians have rejected many offers of a state so far. What they want is ALL of Israel.   
 
Israelis emptied Gaza of Jews and handed the land over to Palestinians, who were not interested in building up a prosperous state but in using it as a platform for terror.  They promptly elected a Hamas government and showered Israel with rockets and other acts of violence - to say nothing of the anti-Israel propaganda value of each military reprisal by Israel.  
 
Israel handed the Sinai over to Egypt in exchange for a piece of paper.  Just before the Arab Spring the Egyptian government was actively seeking to amend, or rather abrogate, that peace treaty.   Today Egypt has lost control over the Sinai, which is in the hands of an assortment of terror groups, including ISIS.
 
The Arab Spring interrupted secret negotiations by the Israeli government to surrender the Golan Heights to Syria.  Had they done so, ISIS would be threatening the north of Israel.   
 
The 1993 Oslo Accords created the Palestinian Authority, which gave the Palestinians control over much of Judea and Samaria (West Bank).  There they have established a corrupt, oppressive, and undemocratic regime, while billions of dollars and euros pour in to keep them afloat.  They use some of that money to pay salaries to terrorists who kill and maim Jews.  During these years they have driven out almost all Christians from that area.  Bethlehem is now a Muslim town.
 
 
A Palestinian state on the ancient Jewish land of Judea and Samaria would become a launching pad for relentless war of attrition against Israel.   
 
With Arab communities just meters away from Jewish ones along the border, they would dig tunnels to murder and terrorize Israelis.  They would use snipers to kill children.  They would launch rockets.  They would use the Arab-Israeli population as a fifth column to attack from within.  All that is already part of the MO of Arab 'resistance'. 
 
They would use their sovereignty to establish treaties with well-armed Muslim states, such as Iran (which is very close to developing nuclear weapons).  International pressure would prevent Israel from properly defending itself. 
 
There would be no peace between Jews and Muslims - only an intolerable and permanent state of war, until the state of Israel is eventually dismantled.
 
Abu Yehuda: 
There aren’t technical solutions for the contradiction between Palestinian desires and the survival of a Jewish state. There is no deal here. And yet, Trump  insists that there is, opening the way for the Palestinian extortion that has characterized the phony “peace process” to continue. There is no benefit for Israel that can come out of Trump’s dealmaking. We can only try to control the damage. 
A distinction without a difference.   The following charts by Edgar Davidson debunk the ongoing myth that Palestinian terrorists are not like ISIS.   Their ideology, their religious beliefs, their goals and their tactics are the same. The reason why Palestinian terror is somewhat limited is that Israel still has control over the land.  
 
Palestinians butcher Jewish children, they have engaged in cannibalism (the 2000 capture of two Israeli men), and propagate a genocidal ideology.   The only difference is that Palestinians kill Jews, an activity that Europe and the US State Department do not regard as objectionable at all. 
 
A reminder about the difference between ISIS terrorists and 'Palestinian militants'
For those of  you wondering why the media and politicians make such a big differentiation between ISIS terrorists and 'Palestinians militants' (especially their child victims) the following chart explains very clearly why. You see ISIS and the Palestinian terrorists have absolutely nothing in common!!!!
 
Public reaction to ISIS and Palestinians:

TERRORISM PERSISTS BECAUSE IT WORKS - The west's long history of rewarding Palestinian terror.

Unauthorized duplication of this blog's material is prohibited.   Excerpts and links may be used, provided that full credit and link is given to Otters and Science News Blogspot.  Link to this post:  http://ottersandsciencenews.blogspot.ca/2017/05/terrorism-persists-because-it-works.html - Thank you for visiting my blog.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Arch-terrorist and inciter to genocide Mahmoud Abbas, chief of the Palestinian Authority, and financial mastermind of the Munich Olympics massacre of Israeli athletes, is the darling of Europe.  Here he is sharing a moment with former French president Hollande.  Terror has worked wonders for his movement.
 
Key notions:
  • While president Trump tells Arab leaders to "DRIVE OUT THE TERRORISTS," he tells Israel to give them a state, and countless concessions in the meantime.
  • Many terrorists, such as those who participated in the 9/11 attacks, were educated, well-off, mobile and even successful. They made a rational cost-benefit decision to murder innocent civilians for one simple reason: they believe that terrorism works.
  • And tragically they are right. The international community has rewarded terrorism while punishing those who try to fight it by reasonable means, such as Israel.  
  • It all began with a decision by Yasser Arafat and other Palestinian terrorist groups to employ the tactic of terrorism as a primary means of bringing the Palestinian issue to the forefront of world concern.
  • There are many groups that have legitimate territorial grievances, such as Tibetans and Kurds, but since they don't use terror against the west as a weapon, they are ignored. 
  • Europe and the USA spend billions of dollars to support the Palestinians, while they in turn use that money to pay salaries to terrorists, to indoctrinate children with a genocidal ideology, and to maintain high levels of corruption at the highest levels.   
  • If the Mafia offered bounties to kill its opponents, no one would sympathize with those who made the offer. Yet the Palestinian leadership that does the same thing is welcomed and honored throughout the world.
  • Palestinians are descendants of Muslims who invaded Israel in the 7th century, and yet, it is the Jews - who have a 3000 year old history in Israel - who are called occupiers.
  • The United Nations glorifies terrorism by placing countries that support terrorism in high positions of authority and honor and by welcoming with open arms the promoters of terrorism.
  • Promoters of terrorism are treated better at the United Nations than opponents of terrorism. The boycott divestment tactic (BDS) is directed only against Israel and not against the many nations that support terrorism.
A tender moment between Mahmoud Abbas and Angela Merkel at the anti-terror march in Paris, January 2016.  Europe does not regard the killing of Jews as terror.
 
Terrorism Persists
Because It Works
By Alan Dershowitz


Every time a horrendous terrorist attack victimizes innocent victims we wring our hands and promise to increase security and take other necessary preventive measures. But we fail to recognize how friends and allies play such an important role in encouraging, incentivizing, and inciting terrorism.

IF THIS CAN BE BLAMED ON THE ISRAELI "OCCUPATION", why is it that Muslims are torching thousands of cars and their own shelters in Europe, blowing up adversaries' mosques in the Middle East, and creating mayhem all over the world?  HOW CAN ISRAEL BE EXPECTED TO MAKE PEACE with Muslims when Muslims themselves are at war with each other and with the rest of the people of the world?

  • People and wildlife are victimized by these acts of Muslim terror.
  • UPDATE:  12 Arabs caught and arrested so far.
  • Authorities admit that at least half of the fires have been terror-motivated.
  • Yeshiva students caught an Arab teen red-handed as he made kindling from cardboard boxes to start another fire
  • A terrorist tried to ignite a fire at a gas station, aiming for an even greater catastrophe.
  • Residents in some cities and communities are being evacuated.
  • Many are in hospital suffering from smoke inhalation.
  • People living in zones not affected by the fires are taking in fire refugees.
  • Nursery children rescued as fire ignited school


  • A similar wave of Muslim arson in 2010 killed 42 people.
  • Russia, Cyprus, Italy, and other countries are sending fire-fighting assistance
  • The large city of Haifa, which has made extreme efforts to integrate its Arab population, illustrates what coexistence really looks like, says Middle East expert.  He calls for government action to end Arab leaders' genocidal incitement against Jews.
  • Europe too has experienced several instances of massive arson of wildlife areas in the last few years, where Muslims have been the prime suspects.
  • Torching cars in the hundreds is a recurrent terror activity by Muslims in France, Sweden, and other European countries.

A number of arrests have been made by security personnel as Israeli firefighters continued on Thursday to battle blazes raging across the center and north of the country, with communities in the south opening their doors to those who were forced to flee the flames.
 
“It’s likely that there is a nationalist motive in some of the arson cases,” Police Commissioner Roni Alsheikh told reporters at a briefing in the northern city of Haifa on Thursday.  “We have a special integrated investigation team that is monitoring everything that is happening across the country,” he said.
 
“I don’t want to get into questions regarding where [we suspect] arson and where we do not. If this is… arson, it could be nationalistically motivated. It’s certainly not just [simple] pyromania,” he emphasized. “And there have been arrests. But Alsheikh declined to share further details.

MEDIA CENSORS WORD "REPULSIVE" WHEN CANADIAN HERO TALKS ABOUT MUSLIM ACTS OF TERROR - Sergeant-at-Arms Kevin Vickers, who shot Muslim attacking Parliament, is honored by Israel during his visit to that country


Kevin Vickers, Canadian Parliament Sergeant-at-Arms, made a statement on how to deal with Muslim terror while on a visit to Israel to attend a Homeland Security conference.  His words were captured on this news video clip:

 No matter how repulsive crimes can be, we must respect the dignity of people, and that's how we can build trusting relationships.
 
 
Watch Mr Vickers utter the word "repulsive" at 1.32 minutes into this video. 


But although the reference is still on the video interview, it has been eliminated from written news reports.  On we go protecting Islam and denying its true nature.
 
But be as it may, Mr Vickers can afford to call for respecting the Muslim community because he has only experienced ONE case of Muslim terror at home.

Israelis are again besieged by a third Intifada, a 24/7 rampage campaign of Muslim terror that particularly targets civilians.  A popular Arab song calls for the murder of Jewish babies.
