Rather, Mr Zacharia has a fine old bridge in Brooklyn to sell us.

4 key things about islam

1. mythical religious b.s. – all religions have this (faith) because its part of being a religion, having beliefs without proof until after the believer dies. the problem is people will believe almost anything

2. totalitarianism – there is no free will in islam sharia law governs all. there is no seperation of church and state in islam: only submission to the will of allah as conveniently determined by the imams who spew vapors to feather their own nests. there are no moderate muslims they all support sharia law, see dar al harb

3. violence – of all religions islam leads the pack in violent tenets for their ideology & history: containing eternal canonical imperatives for supremacy at all costs using violence & intimidation as basic tools to achieve these goals.

4. dishonesty – only islam has dishonesty as a fundamental tenet: this stems from allah speaking to mohamhead & abrogation in the koran which is used to explain how mo’s peaceful early life was superseded by his warlord role later, see al taqiyya

really there are NO redeeming qualities for this muddled pile of propaganda named islam

islam is just another fascist totalitarian ideology used by power hungry fanatics in yet another quest for worldwide domination and includes all the usual human rights abuses & suppression of freedom

Within weeks of 9/11 I was asked to lead a group study of the Qur’an so my faculty colleagues “could better understand the roots of Muslim discontent.” After a couple weeks one blithely ignorant soul said “I think Muhammad had authority issues–he seems awfully angry.”

Skip ahead to today and there remain folks–well meaning, well educated folks–who simply refuse to acknowledge that Sharia law (or some interpretation of it ala Mr. Zakaria) would completely undo CENTURIES of Anglo-American jurisprudence. But since Islam is viewed as the underdog, it gets a complete pass from the academic left. As Rabbi Jacob Neusner once wrote: “A Christian nation? We could do much worse.”

Nor is the entire world, as a result of Iran being a repressive and terrorist-supporting theocracy about to develop nuclear weapons.

So no, it’s not clear at all that the results are better. Maybe some day they will be, if the Iranian people throw off their present yoke and manage to replace it with liberty plus protection of their rights, but I wouldn’t sit on a hot stove till that happens.

Same with Egypt.

neo-neocon, even if democracy truly means that, it shows that people want it – it’s better than their current system of one person, rigged votes, all the time. And who knows – maybe the same uprisings will happen if islamists take over – without the aftermath of Iran. In fact, people like ElBaradei, whom the US seems to support, do propose drawing up a new constitution. Yes, we can’t argue that it will be of the same quality as what the Founding Fathers desired in the USA – instead, hopefully, pro-democracy groups will choose it, and few will be unhappy. And if Islamists take over, people would, undoubtedly, intervene – we’ve seen that they can do that very well. Iran has little effect on the uprising – yes, they support it, but they are stupid in thinking that it’s an islamic revolution – yes, that’s what they want to see, but not what they will see. I still think nukes would be an acceptable policy with the Middle East – most of the time ๐Ÿ˜›

Sorry, just living up to my moniker.

Seems not to be much of a way to unchoose it.

Democracy often means one person, one vote, one time. Power-hungry groups will always try to hijack a democracy. That’s why democracy and voting means absolutely nothing without a constitution that protects the rights of the people. The USA’s founding fathers knew that. Iran is an excellent example of how the people cannot speak after the initial transition, and cannot go out into the streets to effectively change what they would like to change. See this piece I wrote about the importance of a constitution that protects against tyranny–including a tyranny voted in by the majority.
