"...Let us be plain: President Obama's (and Kerry's) basic premise that America and its allies are fighting a deviant, un-Islamic ideology, which must, and can be delegitimized by gathering together the Sunni Arab world to pronounce it "un-Islamic," simply underlines how little they "know" about ISIS -- with which they are about to go to war.

There is no "true Islam" in Islam. There has never been any central "authority" in Islam that could define such a thing. For better or worse (mostly for the better), Islam wears many faces.

At least put it in context. He certainly flubbed saying it was not Islamic.

"ISIL is not 'Islamic.' No religion condones the killing of innocents, and the vast majority of ISIL's victims have been Muslim. And ISIL is certainly not a state; it was formerly al Qaeda's affiliate in Iraq and has taken advantage of sectarian strife and Syria's civil war to gain territory on both sides of the Iraq-Syrian border. It is recognized by no government nor by the people it subjugates."

"ISIL is a terrorist organization, pure and simple, and it has no vision other than the slaughter of all who stand in its way."

Ask yourself this moj', if ISIS was so Islamic, why are all the other Islamic countries and groups shooting at them?

Because they are using the Islamic religion to justify killing innocent people.

Let me finish that statement for you.

Because they are using the Islamic religion to justify killing innocent people. When, instead, the officially agreed upon Muslim Brotherhood strategy is to use non-violent Jihad. In other words, stealthy civilizational Jihad.

The reason is because the other M.E. nation's rulers and governments are in Jahiliad.

Jahiliyya in contemporary society[edit]

Main article: Qutbism

Use of the term for modern Muslim society is usually associated with Qutb's other radical ideas (or Qutbism) – namely that reappearance of Jahiliyya is a result of the lack of Sharia law, without which Islam cannot exist;[10] that true Islam is a complete system with no room for any element of Jahiliyya;[11] that all aspects of Jahiliyya ("manners, ideas and concepts, rules and regulations, values and criteria") are "evil and corrupt"[12]

Non-Muslim societies may also be termed jahili (Arabic: جاهلي‎ ǧāhilī ). One western academic has compared the idea of contemporary Jahiliyya in some radical Islamic circles to the secular Marxist idea of false consciousness[13] – in each case the masses being unaware they are not following their true consciousness by rising up to overthrow the capitalist system and replacing it with socialism (in the case of Marxism); or overthrow the secular state and replace it with the true Islam of strict sharia law (in the case of Qutbism).

Jahiliyyah - Wikipedia the free encyclopedia

Qutbism

Tenets[edit]


Sayyid Qutb
The main tenet of Qutbist ideology is that the Muslim community (or the Muslim community outside of a vanguard fighting to reestablish it) "has been extinct for a few centuries"[3] having reverted to Godless ignorance (Jahiliyya), and must be reconquered for Islam.[4]

Qutb outlined his ideas in his book Ma'alim fi-l-Tariq (akaMilestones). Other important principles of Qutbism include:[citation needed]

• Adherence to Sharia as sacred law accessible to humans, without which Islam cannot exist
• Adherence to Sharia as a complete way of life that will bring not only justice, but peace, personal serenity, scientific discovery, complete freedom from servitude, and other benefits
• Avoidance of Western and non-Islamic "evil and corruption," includingsocialism , nationalism and consumerist capitalism.[5]
• Vigilance against Western and Jewish conspiracies against Islam
• A two-pronged attack of 1) preaching to convert and 2) jihad to forcibly eliminate the "structures" of Jahiliyya[6]
• The importance of offensive Jihad to eliminate Jahiliyya not only from the Islamic homeland but from the face of the earth

Qutbism - Wikipedia the free encyclopedia

The reason the ME governments are fighting ISIS is because ISIS is Wahhabist and considers themselves the only TRUE practitioners of Islam.

They are trying to eliminate the Jahiliyya in the M.E. and then on Earth and substitute the true fundamental Islam they practice.

We are trying to promote the universal adoption of a more benign form of Islam .

It is the Modernists vs the Fundamentalists.
