Oh, great. People who have no clue what they're talking about.
Okay, here's the deal. Some things are just plain fact, and I'm not going to try and convince you to accept fact or not. You either do, or I'm not wasting my time talking about it. This is like explaining that rain falls from the sky.
And as for you knowing what most Muslims think, I smell bullshit. You have no idea what Muslims think. I doubt you even know what one Muslim thinks, let alone 1.5 billion of them.
I trained enough Muslims....studied the language...learned to read Arabic...spent enough time in Islamic countries... enough to learn what they think.
Muslims for the most part are monolithic.....but are also complex and diverse...like their language. They are different from other religions in that living the way they lived 1200 years ago is what being a good Muslim means, meaning segregated communities that don't mesh with other societies. They are a living and walking contradiction to modern life.
And so they represent ALL MUSLIMS do they? Like my Muslim friends in China, Malaysia, Mozambique? They're all the same?
The more of them that live in an area the more alike they learn to think.
Individuals aren't as much of a threat.
Peace to many of them is domination. Total control:
Articles: The Five Stages of Islam
Stage 1. Establish a Beachhead
Population density à 2% (US, Australia, Canada).
Muslims are conciliatory, deferential but request harmless special treatment (foot bath facilities, removal/elimination of that which is offensive to delicate Muslim sensibilities - like walking dogs near Mosques).
Stage 2. Establish Outposts
Population density 2% - 5% (UK, Germany, Denmark).
At 2% to 5%, they begin to proselytize other ethnic minorities and disaffected groups, often with major recruiting from the jails and among street gangs. A recent example is that of Sheikh Abdullah el-Faisal who is back in Jamaica after being kicked out of the UK. Sound harmless? Read on:
The dispatch, dated February 2010, warns that that Jamaica could be fertile ground for jihadists because of its underground drug economy, marginalized youth, insufficient security and gang networks in U.S. and British prisons.
Stage 3. Establish Sectional Control of Major Cities.
Population density 5% - 10% (France, Sweden, Netherlands).
First comes the demand for halal food in supermarkets, and the blocking of streets for prayers; then comes the demand for self rule (within their ghettos) under Sharia. When Muslims approach 10% of the population the demands turn to lawlessness. In Paris, we are already seeing car-burnings. Any criticism of Islam results in uprisings and threats, such as in Amsterdam. In France which may be over the 10% range, the minority Muslim populations live in ghettos, within which they are 100% Muslim, and within which they live by Sharia Law. The national police do not even enter these ghettos. There are no national courts, nor schools, nor non-Muslim religious facilities. In such situations, Muslims do not integrate into the community at large. The children attend madrassas. They learn only the Koran. To even associate with an infidel is a crime punishable with death.
Stage 4. Establish Regional Control.
Population density 20% - 50% (Europe 2020?).
After reaching 20%, nations can expect hair-trigger rioting, jihad militia formations, sporadic killings, and the burnings of Christian churches and Jewish synagogues.
Stage 5. Total Control, Brutal Suppression, and Dhimmitude.
Population density > 50%.
Unfettered persecution of non-believers of all other religions (including non-conforming Muslims), sporadic ethnic cleansing (genocide), use of Sharia Law as a weapon, and jizya, the tax placed on infidels. As Muslim population levels increase and all infidels cower in submission there will peace at last. Dar al-Islam is achieved and everyone lives under Sharia and the Koran is the only word.
