Slavery, Terrorism and Islam: The Historical Roots and Contemporary Threat

Dr. Peter Hammond
Islam is not a religion nor is it a cult. It is a complete system.
Islam has religious, legal, political, economic and military components. The religious component is a beard for all the other components.
Islamization occurs when there are sufficient Muslims in a country to agitate for their so-called 'religious rights.'
When politically correct and culturally diverse societies agree to 'the reasonable' Muslim demands for their 'religious rights,' they also get the other components under the table. Here's how it works (percentages source CIA: The World Fact Book (2007)).
As long as the Muslim population remains around 1% of any given country they will be regarded as a peace-loving minority and not as a threat to anyone. In fact, they may be featured in articles and films, stereotyped for their colorful uniqueness:

United States -- Muslim 1.0%
Australia -- Muslim 1.5%
Canada -- Muslim 1.9%
China -- Muslim 1%-2%
Italy -- Muslim 1.5%
Norway -- Muslim 1.8%
At 2% and 3% they begin to proselytize from other ethnic minorities and disaffected groups with major recruiting from the jails and among street gangs:

Denmark -- Muslim 2%
Germany -- Muslim 3.7%
United Kingdom -- Muslim 2.7%
Spain -- Muslim 4%
Thailand -- Muslim 4.6%

From 5% on they exercise an inordinate influence in proportion to their percentage of the population. They will push for the introduction of halal (clean by Islamic standards) food, thereby securing food preparation jobs for Muslims. They will increase pressure on supermarket chains to feature it on their shelves -- along with threats for failure to comply. ( United States ).
France -- Muslim 8%
Philippines -- Muslim 5%
Sweden -- Muslim 5%

Switzerland -- Muslim 4.3%
The Netherlands -- Muslim 5.5%
Trinidad &Tobago -- Muslim 5.8%
At this point, they will work to get the ruling government to allow them to rule themselves under Sharia, the Islamic Law. The ultimate goal of Islam is not to convert the world but to establish Sharia law over the entire world.
When Muslims reach 10% of the population, they will increase lawlessness as a means of complaint about their conditions ( Paris --car-burnings). Any non-Muslim action that offends Islam will result in uprisings and threats ( Amsterdam - Mohammed cartoons).
Guyana -- Muslim 10% India -- Muslim 13.4%
Israel -- Muslim 16%
Kenya -- Muslim 10%
Russia -- Muslim 10-15%

After reaching 20% expect hair-trigger rioting, jihad militia formations, sporadic killings and church and synagogue burning:Ethiopia -- Muslim 32.8%
At 40% you will find widespread massacres, chronic terror attacks and ongoing militia warfare:
Bosnia -- Muslim 40%
Chad -- Muslim 53.1%
Lebanon -- Muslim 59.7%

From 60% you may expect unfettered persecution of non-believers and other religions, sporadic ethnic cleansing (genocide), use of Sharia Law as a weapon and Jizya, the tax placed on infidels:
Albania -- Muslim 70%
Malaysia -- Muslim 60.4%
Qatar -- Muslim 77.5%
Sudan -- Muslim 70%

After 80% expect State run ethnic cleansing and genocide:
Bangladesh -- Muslim 83%
Egypt -- Muslim 90%
Gaza -- Muslim 98.7%
Indonesia -- Muslim 86.1%
Iran -- Muslim 98%
Iraq -- Muslim 97%
Jordan -- Muslim 92%

Morocco -- Muslim 98.7%
Pakistan -- Muslim 97%
Palestine -- Muslim 99%
Syria -- Muslim 90%
Tajikistan -- Muslim 90%
Turkey -- Muslim 99.8%
United Arab Emirates -- Muslim 96%

100% will usher in the peace of 'Dar-es-Salaam' -- the Islamic House of Peace -- there's supposed to be peace because everybody is a Muslim:
Afghanistan -- Muslim 100%
Saudi Arabia -- Muslim 100%
Somalia -- Muslim 100%
Yemen -- Muslim 99.9%
Of course, that's not the case.
To satisfy their blood lust, Muslims then start killing each other for a variety of reasons.

'Before I was nine I had learned the basic canon of Arab life. It was me against my brother; me and my brother against our father; my family against my cousins and the clan; the clan against the tribe; and the tribe against the world and all of us against the infidel. – Leon Uris, 'The Haj'

It is good to remember that in many, many countries, such as France, the Muslim populations are centered around ghettos based on their ethnicity. Muslims do not integrate into the community at large. Therefore, they exercise more power than their national average would indicate.

Muslims must move ahead and change with the times

When Maulana Ghulam Mohammed Vastanvi, the recently elected vice chancellor of the renowned Islamic seminary, Darul Uloom Deoband, stated that all the minorities are flourishing under Gujarat chief minister Narendra Modi, he had spoken the truth. Nevertheless, the entire Muslim media is up against his statement, calling it far from reality. This only shows that the Muslim community is still struggling to come out of its ghetto mindset.
In this atmosphere, to talk about reform is to be chastened by one’s own family, especially when everyone around is communal. Modi is not to be given a clean chit for the communal carnage; but he must be given his due for progress in the state of Gujarat for all sections, including the Muslims.
In his book, Indian Muslims: Where Have They Gone Wrong?, Rafique Zakaria says that Muslims must become an integral part of the mainstream. It is high time Muslims break the barriers of alienation, and generate a harmonious environment. If Muslims did some soul-searching and asked whether they have contributed to strengthening Hindu-Muslim relations since Partition, the answer will be no.
Zakaria wrote that Indian Muslims must realise that an increasing number of Hindus have begun to hate them due to their obscurantist approach. They have to do their best to bring about a change in this hostile attitude of the communal Hindus. This is as much in their interest as that of the nation.
Unfortunately, Muslims continue to live in a make-believe world of their own. Muslim leaders waste their energies whipping up emotions and bringing more trouble to ordinary Muslims. These self-serving leaders remain oblivious to the miserable decline of the Muslim community. The leaders’ rigid attitude on every occasion has only weakened Hindu-Muslim relations further. Instead of coming out openly against Pakistan and taking a strong stand against the jihadis, these so-called guardians of the Indian Muslims spend most of their time in running their own political shops to buttress their communal leadership.
None of these leaders visit the villages, so they are unaware of the fallout of their actions on the poor and hapless who live in the remote parts of the country.
Indian Muslims must move forward. They must discard their worn-out prejudices and outmoded habits and adjust themselves to the requirements of the changing times. They must give up asking for doles that will only cripple them. They must learn to stand on their own feet, for the fact is that they have no true friends; many who show them sympathy or consideration are not sincere. They do so only to obtain some electoral gain.
They rely on India’s commitment to secularism, which has been of some help. To succeed, Indian Muslims must boldly come forward to undergo an all-round transformation in their style of functioning. If they fail to do so, they will be ruined beyond redemption.
Muslims today will succeed if parents shed their old habits, give up their outdated notions, and encourage and help their children get the best education. Merit alone will give them reward, as rightly reiterated by Maulana Ghulam Mohammed Vastanvi.
Indian Muslims must disown the bigotry that has made Muslims pariahs everywhere. They must give to the non-Muslims the assurance that their religion stands for “live and let live”. The orthodox clerics who shut themselves from the world must not be allowed to hold the community to ransom.
They must, without compromising the Quranic injunctions, agree to the introduction of certain much-needed, essential changes in their personal law, particularly the enactment of monogamy. There is, in fact, enough scope under the Shariah to amend the laws relating to marriage, divorce, dower and even maintenance. Ijtihad, (independent thinking), which was freely used by the classical jurists in the past, needs to be exercised by the present generation much more today.
There must be a real awareness among Indian Muslims that they have to prepare for reconciliation with Hindus on the basis that each respects the religious and cultural conventions, traditions and sentiments of the other. As to reform in personal laws as a prelude to a uniform civil code, Muslims should not oppose something without knowing what it will be.
Sardar Patel once told Saifuddin Kitchlew, in a personal meeting on May 19, 1950: “The goodwill of the majority was the best safeguard for a minority”. Muslims must take a leaf from the Parsi minority, which is probably the most liked community in India. Without raising a whimper about their unique religion and their rights, the Parsis have produced national luminaries in the field of law, industry, business, medicine, journalism, and banking.
