  4. 1.1 Some Introductory Definitions Caliphate – the unity of political Muslims (1.3 B). Islamist – an adherent of political Islam ideology. Jihad – Holy War, sanctioned by Allah. Kafirs – non-believers of Islam; hated by Allah. Sharia – Allah’s Islamic law for all mankind. Terrorism – violence against civilian targets by non-traditional fighters for political purposes. Mohammed-and-Political-Islam-is-it-something-we-should-worry-about-Rev3.ppt

  5. 1.2. Here is what Islamists do; but WHY? Mohammed-and-Political-Islam-is-it-something-we-should-worry-about-Rev3.ppt

  6. 1.3. Why They Hate Us Jihadists hate Western civ., esp USA & Israel; they hate our laws, our freedoms, our entire culture. Osama bin Laden hated U.S. forces on Saudi land, the birthplace of Islam. He had a sacred right from Allah to attack USA on 9/11 and kill 3,000 civilians. [Friedman, George, America’s Secret War, pp. 21-35] Mohammed-and-Political-Islam-is-it-something-we-should-worry-about-Rev3.ppt

  7. 1.4. How Osama bin Laden did it Afghani warriors from Russian war learned U.S. methods & secrets. After war, some formed the Taliban to rule Afghanistan, and others to form al-Qaeda to re-build the Caliphate. OBL knew our weaknesses and exploited them for 9/11 as part of that effort. [Friedman, George, America’s Secret War, pp. 21-35] Mohammed-and-Political-Islam-is-it-something-we-should-worry-about-Rev3.ppt

  8. Section 2Islamic Caliphates This section will discuss the Ottoman Empire (Islamic Caliphate) and the USA’s initial encounter with Political Islam. Mohammed-and-Political-Islam-is-it-something-we-should-worry-about-Rev3.ppt

  9. 2.1 (a). A Historical Wakeup Call America’s 1st encounter with political Islam began in early 1800s when Ottoman-Caliphate pirates hijacked U.S. commercial ships along Barbary Coast (Barbary Wars). The pirates believed the Koran gave them the “right” to attack kafir ships, steal booty, extort ransoms, capture slaves & gain power. Mohammed-and-Political-Islam-is-it-something-we-should-worry-about-Rev3.ppt

  10. 2.1 (b). A Historical Wakeup Call Jefferson asked Muslim Ambassador: Why do you attack our ships with no provocation? The reply: “…(Islam) was founded on the Laws of the Prophet, that it was written in the Koran, that all nations who should not have acknowledged their authority were sinners, that it was their right and duty to make war upon them wherever they could be found and to make slaves of all they could take as prisoners…” Mohammed-and-Political-Islam-is-it-something-we-should-worry-about-Rev3.ppt

  11. 2.2. The Ottoman-Caliphate’s Expansion The sword was used by Ottoman Empire (Caliphate) to conquer lands from Europe to North Africa, from 13th century to 1923. Kafirs in those lands were forced into the Caliphate under Islamic rule as oppressed semi-slaves with heavy taxation. [Source: http://www.theottomans.org/english/history/index.asp] Mohammed-and-Political-Islam-is-it-something-we-should-worry-about-Rev3.ppt

  12. 2.3. The “Caliphate” Today Jihadists are trying to re-establish the Ottoman Empire (caliphate); all land is rightfully theirs. A jihad-waging, sharia-enforcing caliphate will be an on-going existentialist threat to the USA and the entire world. [Raymond Ibrahim, author] Mohammed-and-Political-Islam-is-it-something-we-should-worry-about-Rev3.ppt

  13. 2.4. Jihadists Seek a Global Caliphate They believe Islam is supreme and sharia is the answer to humankind’s problems.They will bless us with sharia whether we like it or not! Mohammed-and-Political-Islam-is-it-something-we-should-worry-about-Rev3.ppt

  14. Section 3 Mohammed -- The Founder of Islam Here, some important aspects of Mohammed’s life and actions that formed Islam will be presented. Mohammed-and-Political-Islam-is-it-something-we-should-worry-about-Rev3.ppt

  15. 3.1 (a). Mohammed’s Chronology 570 Born 4/20/570 in Mecca; stayed until 622. 610 - 621 He received revelations from Allah via Angel Gabriel. (His religious Islam was a failure, about 150 converts. Jews rejected him as a prophet and drove him and followers off.) 622 -- 623 He and followers fled to Medina. There political Islam invented to gain converts. Mohammed-and-Political-Islam-is-it-something-we-should-worry-about-Rev3.ppt

  16. 3.1 (b). Mohammed’s Chronology 624 - 629 He used violence and forced conversions to help Islam increase rapidly in size and strength. 630 He conquered Mecca and the Ka’bah (a black stone – probably a meteorite) and eventually became the “Master of Arabia.” 631 He was involved in violent acts about every six weeks of the last nine years of his life. 632 He died in Medina on June 8th, 632. Mohammed-and-Political-Islam-is-it-something-we-should-worry-about-Rev3.ppt

  17. 3.2. Mohammed Islam’s Ideal Man Everything He said and did form sharia. Muslims emulate Him in all aspects; similar to Christians emulating Jesus. K 33:21 “Ye have indeed in the Messenger of Allah [Mohammed] an excellent exampler for him who hopes in Allah and the final day, and who remember Allah much.” Mohammed-and-Political-Islam-is-it-something-we-should-worry-about-Rev3.ppt

  18. 3.3. MohammedA Political Leader He was a ruler, conqueror, enslaver, bandit, murderer, rapist, polygamist, self-proclaimed prophet, and he married a child. He massacred Jews in Arabia and instigated an ideology of Jew hatred that has lasted over 1400 years and cost millions of lives. His ideology of hate is still with us! [PerfectMan] Mohammed-and-Political-Islam-is-it-something-we-should-worry-about-Rev3.ppt

  19. 3.4. Mohammed’s “Tears of Jihad” Over the past 1400 years, Mohammed and his followers have been responsible for the death of about 270 million kafirs: • Africans: 120,000,000 (approx); • Buddhists: 10,000,000 (approx); • Christians: 60,000,000 (approx); • Hindus: 80,000,000 (approx); • Americans: 3,000 (approx; so far…). Mohammed-and-Political-Islam-is-it-something-we-should-worry-about-Rev3.ppt

  20. 3.5. Mohammed and Jihad He invented Jihad; holy war -- a mix of religion & politics designed to instill Sharia into kafir societies. To this objective, jihadists have sacred right to berate, kill, enslave kafirs & take their property at any time, any place. Mohammed-and-Political-Islam-is-it-something-we-should-worry-about-Rev3.ppt

  21. 3.6. MohammedTreaties and Taqiyya Mohammed made & broke treaties (e.g. Treaty at Al Hudaybiya in Mecca with the Jews). Breaking treaties still okay. He used taqiyya (sacred deceit) to confound his enemies. Taqiyya still in use today. [Sultan, Wafa. A God Who Hates, p. 243.] Mohammed-and-Political-Islam-is-it-something-we-should-worry-about-Rev3.ppt

  22. 3.7. MohammedTheft, Rape and Slaves He used theft of Kafir property to fund jihad. Still okay today. He used Rape to subdue Kafirs. Still okay today. He Enslaved Kafir women & children. Still okay today. Mohammed-and-Political-Islam-is-it-something-we-should-worry-about-Rev3.ppt

  23. 3.8. MohammedUse of Assassins and Terror He used assassins to silence intellectuals and artists. Still in use today. Example: Theo Van Gogh, Dutch filmmaker stabbed to death on Nov 4, 2004. [Source, Wikipedia] Terrorism -- used for political purposes. Still in use today. [www.aifdemocracy.org/news/php?id=6…] Mohammed-and-Political-Islam-is-it-something-we-should-worry-about-Rev3.ppt

  24. 3.9. MohammadUse of Beheadings Mohammed used beheadings to terrorize his foes. K 8:12. “…I will instill terror into the hearts of the Unbelievers: smite ye above their necks and smite all their finger-tips off them. Mohammed-and-Political-Islam-is-it-something-we-should-worry-about-Rev3.ppt

  25. 3.10. Mohammedand Child Marriages Mohammed married Aisha when she was six and consummated the marriage when she was nine. He was 54. Child marriages are still condoned by sharia today. (V7, Book 62, Number 88, Narrated Ursa) Mohammed-and-Political-Islam-is-it-something-we-should-worry-about-Rev3.ppt

  26. 3.11 (a). Mohammed’s Kind HeartThe Three Options Before attacking, Mohammed gave his enemy three options: 1. Enemy can convert to Islam, then peace, 2. Enemy can submit to Islam rule as dhimmis. 3. Else, be attacked and face death. Mohammed-and-Political-Islam-is-it-something-we-should-worry-about-Rev3.ppt

  27. 3.13 (b). Mohammed “today” His three options are still here On 5/8/06, Iranian Pres. Ahmadinejad sent a letter to Pres. George W. Bush with the traditional ending used by Muhammad in his Da'wa messages to enemy leaders before attacking them: "peace only unto those who follow the true path", interpreted as a threat of violence. [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mahmoud_Ahmadinejad's_letter_to_George_W._Bush] Mohammed-and-Political-Islam-is-it-something-we-should-worry-about-Rev3.ppt

  28. Section 4 Political Islam Is American Islam our future? Should we even worry about? Let’s talk about it… Mohammed-and-Political-Islam-is-it-something-we-should-worry-about-Rev3.ppt

  29. 4.1. Political IslamFundamental Characteristics It is an Ideology . (It is a single overriding doctrine that all believe in, struggle for, and die for. Sharia law encompasses everything. ) It is Totalitarian. (Everything regulated by religious & political leaders; people serve the state.) It is Fascist (Everyone under a nationalistic single-party state run by a radical authoritarian leader, use of violence okay for control.) Mohammed-and-Political-Islam-is-it-something-we-should-worry-about-Rev3.ppt

  30. 4.2. Five Principlesof Political Islam 1. It has sharia (Islamic law): mandatory for everyone. 2. It is supremist. 3. It has a common enemy, Kafirs. 4. It is dualistic; different rules for Muslims & kafirs. 5. It demands submission, whether one wants it or not! Mohammed-and-Political-Islam-is-it-something-we-should-worry-about-Rev3.ppt

  31. 4.3. Political Islam’s Three Sacred Books Koran: Allah’s perfect, universal, and final word for all people and time. Sira: Mohammad’s biography (life story). Hadith: set of stories of what Mohammed said and did. Mohammed-and-Political-Islam-is-it-something-we-should-worry-about-Rev3.ppt

  32. 4.5. Political Islam’s War against KafirsThe Koran’s “Verse of the Sword” K 9:5. “But when the forbidden months are past, then fight and slay the Pagans wherever ye find them, and seize them, beleaguer them, and lie in wait for them in every stratagem (of war); but if they repent, and establish regular prayers and pay Zakat [tithe] then open the way for them(…)” Mohammed-and-Political-Islam-is-it-something-we-should-worry-about-Rev3.ppt

  33. 4.6. Political Islam Other Verses of Violence K 3:151 (…) We will put terror into the hearts of the unbelievers (…) K 2:193 (…) fight them [until] there is no more persecution and the religion becomes Allah’s (…) Mohammed-and-Political-Islam-is-it-something-we-should-worry-about-Rev3.ppt

  34. 4.7. Political Islam and Koranic Inconsistencies -- Principle of Abrogation The Koran has “nice” early verses and later violent “hate Kafir” equivalents. Odd. How can these differences be resolved? Easy – by abrogation:The “verse of abrogation” K 2:106 Whatever of Our revelations We repeal or cause to be forgotten, We will replace with something superior or comparable. (Overall about 226 verses are abrograted) Mohammed-and-Political-Islam-is-it-something-we-should-worry-about-Rev3.ppt

  35. Section 5 Political Islam and Ethics This section will discuss the basic differences between traditional ethics and Islamic ethics.They are by no means the same… Mohammed-and-Political-Islam-is-it-something-we-should-worry-about-Rev3.ppt

  36. 5.1. Political Islam --Basic Ethics Most cultures and religions around the world believe in some form of unitary ethics -- same rules for everyone, such as the Golden Rule: Do unto others (all others) as you would have them do unto you. Not so in Islam. Islamic “ethics” are based upon dualism. Mohammed-and-Political-Islam-is-it-something-we-should-worry-about-Rev3.ppt

  37. 5.2. Political Islam’s Ethics -- Dualism Dualism = two sets of rules at same time: • one set for Muslims – kind to each other. • another set for kafirs – Muslims have sacred right to abuse and kill kafirs. There is no Golden Rule in Islam… Mohammed-and-Political-Islam-is-it-something-we-should-worry-about-Rev3.ppt

  38. 5.3 (a). Political Islam Other forms of Dualism • Religious – Small portion of sharia is about how Muslims get to heaven. No concern to us. • Political – Most of sharia is political; how Allah hates kafirs and mandates Jihadists to subdue them to Islam. Great concern to us!Islam’s success is from politics, not religion. Mohammed-and-Political-Islam-is-it-something-we-should-worry-about-Rev3.ppt

  39. Section 6 Political IslamGoals and Techniques This section will discuss the basic differences between traditional ethics and Islamic ethics.They are by no means the same… Mohammed-and-Political-Islam-is-it-something-we-should-worry-about-Rev3.ppt

  40. 6.1. Political IslamOverall Goal Political Islam seeks to bring everyone under the banner of sharia, as commanded by Allah. This effort (war) is unstoppable until everyone has submitted to Allah’s law, sharia. Host cultures are to be totally annihilated. Capitulation emboldens it. [Bill Warner] Mohammed-and-Political-Islam-is-it-something-we-should-worry-about-Rev3.ppt

  41. 1. Immigration. Muslims nice, peaceful at first; fit in; Kafirs accept them as equals. 2. Later, sharia & segregation; more mosques. 3. Then infiltration, subversion, Jihad & killings start; kafirs cower with resulting culture loss. 4. Islamists take control of dhimmigov.; require zakat to fund more jihad & control of Kafirs. 5. Sharia complete; Islam only; old Kafir culture gone. (Sharia = Trojan Horse; it enters while we sleep and then takes over! Or, like termites) 6.2. Political Islam, How it Takes Over Mohammed-and-Political-Islam-is-it-something-we-should-worry-about-Rev3.ppt

  42. 6.3. Political IslamDemographic Jihad Demographic jihad (encouraging Muslim families to have more children than normal) is being used to help overtake host cultures. Is this a real danger? Yes! With a four-to-two birthrate, they can out-vote a host society in about four generations.Think no-go zones in many European cities, and right here in USA, Dearborn MI. [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Demographic_threat] Mohammed-and-Political-Islam-is-it-something-we-should-worry-about-Rev3.ppt

  43. 6.4. Political Islamand Halal Meat Prepared (inhumanely) by Islamic standards in Allah’s name, by Muslim butcher facing Mecca, no kafirs allowed. Some markets may put Halal on shelves w/o customer notice; you may be consuming it without knowing it! Some Halal income must go to Islamic charity with a portion required to support jihad. [http://www.rightsidenews.com/2011062813931/world/terrorism/global-jihad-marches-halal-the-new-stealth-jihad.html] Mohammed-and-Political-Islam-is-it-something-we-should-worry-about-Rev3.ppt

  44. 6.5. Political IslamDhimmitude What is it? It is an abusive and demeaning process where Muslims “allow” Christian and Jewish subjects to co-exist in Muslim lands as semi-slaves w/heavy poll taxes. These taxes help fund Muslim jihad. Mohammed-and-Political-Islam-is-it-something-we-should-worry-about-Rev3.ppt

  45. 6.6 (a). Political Islam“Useful-Idiot” Dhimmitude What is it? Useful-Idiot dhimmitude (dhimmi for short) applies to kafirs who wittingly or un-wittingly support the Islamic movement by words, actions, or deeds. Mohammed-and-Political-Islam-is-it-something-we-should-worry-about-Rev3.ppt

  46. 6.6 (b). Political Islam Dhimmi Examples Saying “Islam is religion of peace.” Claiming that U.S. law & Sharia are equal. Donating money to Islamic charities (some percentage must go to jihad). Kafir women marrying Muslim men (children are Muslim at birth; helps increase Islamic demographics). Mohammed-and-Political-Islam-is-it-something-we-should-worry-about-Rev3.ppt

  47. 6.7. Political Islam Home-Grown Jihadists Over 30 jihad training camps are scattered in USA, known as “Muslims of America,” lead by a radical cleric, Sheikh MubaraGilani. Numerous “Soldier of Allah” jihadists have been trained to use explosives, weapons, kidnapping, and guerilla warfare against civilian and military targets. [Homegrown Jihad, The Terrorist Camps Around U.S, Christian Action Network, A PRB Film Production] Mohammed-and-Political-Islam-is-it-something-we-should-worry-about-Rev3.ppt

  48. 6.8. Political IslamRadical Prison Imams Radicalized prison Imams are indoctrinating “violent” inmates to militant Islam. They become effective home-grown jihadists! Saudia Arabia funds such Imams to promote Wahabbism (a virulent form of Islam like Salafism) in prisons, Mosques and madrassas (Islamic schools). [http://atlasshrugs2000.typepad.com/atlas_shrugs/jihad-jailhouses/ ] Mohammed-and-Political-Islam-is-it-something-we-should-worry-about-Rev3.ppt

  49. Section 7.0 Political Islam and Sharia Here Islamic law (sharia, and sharia-compliant-finance) will be presented. Important – the over-arching purpose of jihad is to instill sharia everywhere, whether a culture wants it or not! Mohammed-and-Political-Islam-is-it-something-we-should-worry-about-Rev3.ppt

  50. 7.1. Political Islam’s Law, Sharia Sharia: Allah’s sacred law from Koran & Sunna, to replace human law in everything: religion, politics food, dress, law, etc. People can “freely” submit to sharia. (see Reliance of the Traveller). Under sharia, true freedom curtailed -- no freedom of expression or democracy. Sharia & US Constitution incompatible!
