We must look at how the Koran explicitly calls on Muslims to declare jihad

Despite the western world being under attack from ISIS and other Islamist/jihadist groups, the greatest threat to our survival comes from within. 

It is exemplified in what Orwell described as newspeak and double talk. A striving towards political correct consensus over objective reality — especially if it offends someone.

The majority of our political and cultural elite are practitioners of this. One finds that after every Islamic attack, they come out with platitudes such as assurances that “Islam is a religion of peace”.

This is a statement that can only come from someone who has never read the Islamic text. Or it comes from someone who wishes to disguise the Islamic intention to subject the world to Islamic rule.

For Muhammad got what he wanted by terror, pillage, plunder, theft, torture, and through sex slaves for his fighters.

He also declared jihad (fighting for the cause of Allah ) the most sacred thing a Muslim could do.

As per Islamic text, in return for martyrdom the Muslim gets rewarded with paradise and 72 virgins for their pleasure.

Yet those of us who have read these texts and point out that Islam is not “a religion of peace”’ are categorised as ‘Islamophobes’— a word specifically fashioned in the PC machine to silence all criticism .

After Paris, these PC platitudes have been trotted out again.

But all expressions of solidarity with the people of Paris will do no good until the elephant in the room of Islamic doctrine is addressed and its intolerance of the Kaffur (non-Muslim).
