THE WORLD OF ISLAM & THE WORLD OF WAR
By Chuck Morse
Islamic fundamentalists have launched a Jihad against the non-Muslim world. This Jihad is being fought on three fronts. The first front is the war against secular or nominally Islamic governments. The second front is the war against all nation-states and multinational states which are either on the fringe of the Islamic world or which have substantial Muslim minorities. The third front is the war against the predominantly non-Muslim United States of America and other Western countries, which the Islamists consider to be part of the "great Satan." The sooner we stop pussyfooting around and recognize the nature of the enemy, the sooner we can start winning the the war on Islamic terrorism.
The Islamic fundamentalist views the world as divided between the "Dar es Salaam," or the House of Peace, which is Islamic, and the "Dar es Harb," or the House of War, which is non-Islamic. He believes, as an article of faith, that he is commanded by God to wage war against the non-Muslim "Dar es Harb." He believes he is fulfilling the will of God when he kills the perceived blasphemers of his faith, whether they are secular Islamic citizens sunning themselves on a beach in Algeria or unsuspecting American workers in an office in the former World Trade Center. We must wake up and turn the tables by turning their world into the "Dar es Harb" and, by doing so, demonstrate the falseness of their twisted beliefs. This is the only language and action that they will understand and appropriately respond to.
The Qu'ran (Koran) clearly commands the Muslim faithful to engage in war against the infidels. The only concession granted to the non-Muslim by the Qu'ran is that he will be allowed to live in a Muslim state as a dhimmi, or second-class citizen, required to pay a Zakat, or extortion, for not converting to the true faith. Most Muslims, fortunately, are not that religious and fanatical, but it is incumbent on those of us who seek a secure and free future to understand the belief system of the Islamic true believer, as they carry out conspiracies to kill as many of us as possible.
If enough people had read Mein Kampf, and took it seriously, back when it was published in the mid-1920s, Adolf Hitler's murderous faith may not have achieved power. Likewise, it is essential that we study the Qu'ran and related documents, which constitute the faith of today's terrorist conspiracy. This is, again, not a matter of being anti-Muslim, as most Muslims are not such warped-minded religious fanatics. We must examine, unflinchingly, the beliefs of the Islamic fundamentalists who are killing us!
Let's examine the most recent activities of the Jihad. Sunday, September 30, a car bomb explodes in the Talpiot area of southern Jerusalem, killing Jews this time. The Islamic fundamentalists behind the terror directed against Israel believe they are commanded by God to kill Jews who fail to become dhimmi or submit to the rule of the true faith. Fundamentalist Islamic religious forces are, by and large, the ones who motivate of the Israeli-Arab conflict.
Also, on September 30, a suicide bomber rammed through the main gate of the State Legislature building in Srinagar, Kashmir, with an explosive-rigged car. At least 29 people were killed in the explosion and subsequent fighting. The Pakistan-based Islamic fundamentalist group, Jaish-e-Mohammed, claimed responsibility for the attack.
The Debkafile reports that Osama bin Laden has continued planning for a longterm Jihad against the non-Muslim infidel. His command is divided into five areas targeted for terror. Bin Laden himself commands the Afghanistan-Pakistan-Tadjikistan theater of operations. Jumna Mamangani leads the Central Asian command, which includes parts of Kyrgizia, Tadjikistan, and his native Uzbekistan. Jihad Islami chief, Ayman al-Zawahri, commands the Balkan theater, which is based in Albania or Kosovo and covers Europe and Britain. Former Hizballah hostage-taker, Imad Mughniyeh, commands the Middle East, and Algerian Islamic fundamentalist, Fateh Kamel, commands the North Africa-Spain-France theater. Al-Zawahri and Kamel also command the U.S.A. and Canada through deep-cover cells and sleepers.
