A small point on Fanatics

1st Post:

With 11 weeks of holiday or something stupid like that I decided that I would do some writing. It breaks up revision at least. Maybe someone will read this.


  1. I like to make strong points and they may seem against general opinion, Hey ho.
  2. I STRONGLY DISPROVE of the actions of the BNP and the EDL if violent or offensive. Nonsensical violence gets us nowhere.
  3. I might get a bit carried away... that's just me to be honest...

Fanaticism


Woolwich murder suspect (above)

The recent Woolwich murder has started off that fierce debate that is present in society. Stereotypes, wrong or right? It would take a million pages of writing, perhaps a small over exaggeration... , to cover all stereotypes so for sake of the times I would like to speak briefly about Muslims. And more to the point, Muslim extremists. From 9/11 to the recent murder Muslim's are portrayed in a bad light. Many say this is due to a few "bad apples". The words "racist" and "intolerant" are thrown around in vicious tones. "It's not all of them!" is said often.

Acts like this split the community. And often lead to acts of retaliation. The recent attack sparked violence towards mosques and a feeling of resentment from many towards Muslims, extremists or not. But among this argument and the hurling of words and insults to each other, sometimes a voice of reason becomes present. In this case I believe this voice of reason is not the people who tell not to stereotype or the people who say that all Muslims are terrorists. This voice belongs to Dr Emanuel Tanya. 
"A man, whose family was German aristocracy prior to World War II, owned a number of large industries and estates. When asked how many German people were true Nazis, the answer he gave can guide our attitude toward fanaticism.
'Very few people were true Nazis,' he said, 'but many enjoyed the return of German pride, and many more were too busy to care. I was one of those who just thought the Nazis were a bunch of fools. So, the majority just sat back and let it all happen. Then, before we knew it, they owned us, and we had lost control, and the end of the world had come. My family lost everything. I ended up in a concentration camp and the Allies destroyed my factories.'
We are told again and again by 'experts' and 'talking heads' that Islam is the religion of peace and that the vast majority of Muslims just want to live in peace. Although this unqualified assertion may be true, it is entirely irrelevant. It is meaningless fluff, meant to make us feel better, and meant to somehow diminish the spectre of fanatics rampaging across the globe in the name of Islam.
The fact is that the fanatics rule Islam at this moment in history. It is the fanatics who march. It is the fanatics who wage any one of 50 shooting wars worldwide. It is the fanatics who systematically slaughter Christian or tribal groups throughout Africa and are gradually taking over the entire continent in an Islamic wave. It is the fanatics who bomb, behead, murder, or honour-kill. It is the fanatics who take over mosque after mosque. It is the fanatics who zealously spread the stoning and hanging of rape victims and homosexuals. It is the fanatics who teach their young to kill and to become suicide bombers.
The hard, quantifiable fact is that the peaceful majority, the 'silent majority,' is cowed and extraneous. Communist Russia was comprised of Russians who just wanted to live in peace, yet the Russian Communists were responsible for the murder of about 20 million people. The peaceful majority were irrelevant. China's huge population was peaceful as well, but Chinese Communists managed to kill a staggering 70 million people..
The average Japanese individual prior to World War II was not a warmongering sadist. Yet, Japan murdered and slaughtered its way across South East Asia in an orgy of killing that included the systematic murder of 12 million Chinese civilians; most killed by sword, shovel, and bayonet. And who can forget Rwanda , which collapsed into butchery. Could it not be said that the majority of Rwandans were 'peace loving'?
History lessons are often incredibly simple and blunt, yet for all our powers of reason, we often miss the most basic and uncomplicated of points: peace-loving Muslims have been made irrelevant by their silence. Peace-loving Muslims will become our enemy if they don't speak up, because like my friend from Germany , they will awaken one day and find that the fanatics own them, and the end of their world will have begun.
Peace-loving Germans, Japanese, Chinese, Russians, Rwandans, Serbs, Afghans, Iraqis, Palestinians, Somalis, Nigerians, Algerians, and many others have died because the peaceful majority did not speak up until it was too late.
Now Islamic prayers have been introduced into Toronto and other public schools in Ontario , and, yes, in Ottawa too while the Lord's Prayer was removed (due to being so offensive?) The Islamic way may be peaceful for the time being in our country until the fanatics move in.
In Australia , and indeed in many countries around the world, many of the most commonly consumed food items have the halal emblem on them. Just look at the back of some of the most popular chocolate bars, and at other food items in your local supermarket. Food on aircraft have the halal emblem (see the attachment), just to appease the privileged minority who are now rapidly expanding within the nation’s shores.
In the U.K, the Muslim communities refuse to integrate and there are now dozens of “no-go” zones within major cities across the country that the police force dare not intrude upon. Sharia law prevails there, because the Muslim community in those areas refuse to acknowledge British law.
As for us who watch it all unfold, we must pay attention to the only group that counts -- the fanatics who threaten our way of life.
Lastly, anyone who doubts that the issue is serious and just deletes this email without sending it on, is contributing to the passiveness that allows the problems to expand. So, extend yourself a bit and send this on and on and on! Let us hope that thousands, world-wide, read this and think about it, and send it on - before it's too late."
I believe that none a truer word on the matter have been spoken. Out of a 100 people of the same race, if one becomes violent and the others stay quiet, the natural reaction is to assume they approve of this and given the right circumstance would do such a thing. I can already hear a voice saying "but some speak out". Well yes, and I applaud them for this. However I, taking a point from Dr Tanya, rarely hear of the people that stood against the Nazi rule. When Nazis are mentioned it is rare your general public will state of any heroic acts. The fanatics will always be the danger and if we allow the slow infiltration, perhaps even a political and cultural invasion, of our country any longer then we will lose to them.

I would also like to add a point of Sharia law. Many Muslims come to this country as "refugees" as back in their country they would be killed. Often this is due to the Sharia law. If you move away from a problem to a better situation, why would you re-introduce what the original problem was? That simply defies reason.

I am aware I have not covered: The benefit system, many of the points raised in my quote and in fact most of the points I could have done. But, this is simply the start and I hope to write more. Please leave a comment and I'll get back to you.

I leave you with a point I believe should stay in our heads when considering equality of minorities: You allow a man into your house to stay, eat your food, drink your water and sleep in your beds. This is a guest. But once that man begins to change the room around, tell you what you can and cannot do. He is no longer a guest, but an intruder into your house, your life and your culture. If you allow him to change what you do in your house, it is no longer your house.
