Jihadists MUST See Themselves As Victims
I found the following on Political Islam, the organization who published A Simple Koran.I love this quote: "In short, the poor Muslims were the victims, and the dead kafirs were the oppressors. It has been ever thus for 1400 years."
Seeing themselves as the victim helps Muslims solve the dilemma caused by two important rules of Islam: You can't be an aggressor and you can't guarantee Paradise unless you die fighting for Allah. Solution: See yourself as a victim (no matter what the kafirs do), see Islam as a victim, and then defend Islam.Anyway, here's the piece:
Of Interest
Frank Gaffney wrote a piece on soft jihad at the Democratic convention.
Here is Robert Spencer's take on the same event.
A Victim at the Democratic Convention
Dr. Ingrid Mattson, President of the Islamic Society of North America (ISNA), took part in the Democratic Convention in Denver.
As a brief aside, the ISNA is a front for the Muslim Brotherhood (its stated purpose is to destroy the West from inside) and is also included as an unindicted co-conspirator in terrorism financing conspiracy. All of the armed force's Muslim chaplain's and prison chaplains have to take Dr. Mattson's course on Islam. In the course she supports Sharia law to replace our Constitution in order to achieve an "ethical" government. Like Obama, she believes that poverty and social oppression caused the September 11 attack on the World Trade Center. Neither one will speak of any basis for the attack in Islamic doctrine.
There are four kinds of jihad — sword, pen, mouth and money. Dr. Mattson is a jihadist of the pen and mouth version. Some people call it soft jihad.
At the Convention she spoke of Muslims as being victims in America. Poor Muslim immigrants have to leave their Islamic earthly paradises and come to a mean America where they are victims of the cruel kafirs.
But in Islam it is Sunna. Mohammed was a victim of oppression, so Muslims are always victims and never oppressors.
Examine the record. In Medina Mohammed sent out his jihadists eight times before they were able to kill their first kafir and steal the kafirs' wealth. They had their success in a holy month. The Arabs had rules of war and one of those rules was that there were holy months when no Arab was to attack another. So the Arabs complained that Mohammed had broken the rules of war and was oppressing other Arabs.
Mohammed was troubled by the charge of being a war criminal, but Allah came to his rescue:
Koran 2:216 You are commanded to fight although you dislike it. You may hate something that is good for you, and love something that is bad for you. Allah knows and you do not. When they ask you about fighting in the holy month, say: Fighting at this time is a serious offense, but it is worse in Allah's eyes to deny others the path to Him, to disbelieve in Him, and to drive His worshippers out of the Sacred Mosque. Idolatry is a greater sin than murder.
The way of life for the kafir Arabs that included their religion (idolatry is a greater sin than murder) made them fair game for jihad. The kafir Arabs had only one fault-they did not believe that Mohammed was the prophet of Allah. What the kafir Arabs had done by telling Mohammed to leave town (drive His worshippers out of the Sacred Mosque) was worse than war.
In short, the poor Muslims were the victims, and the dead kafirs were the oppressors. It has been ever thus for 1400 years.
All jihad is defensive. The kafirs make the first offensive move against Islam by not believing in the prophet-hood of Mohammed.
Dr. Mattson follows the doctrine of political Islam to the letter when she declares that Muslims are victims in America. And there is only one way that Muslims will stop being oppressed in America. Only when we live under Sharia law will the oppression stop. It would seem that Obama and the Democrats are doing what they can at this time to assure that no Muslim will be a victim.
