Buddha, Jesus and Mohammed: prophets of peace to slavery, jihad and Sharia
Lee Jay Walker
Banu Qurayza were followers of Judaism and were beheaded
during the reign of Mohammed
The revamping of Mohammed throughout the world continues because of Islamic kitman but what is mystifying is that non-Muslim religious leaders, secularists and liberals appear to be giving the Islamic faith a helping hand. Therefore, it is essential to get to the heart of Islam and see the reality of what happened under Mohammed.
If Buddha and Jesus were alive today then clearly they would not break any laws in democratic nations because they taught peace and supported the poor by their actions and deeds. Therefore, while people in modern societies may reject their different messages, it is abundantly clear that both individuals never killed, never supported war and nor did they support power and authority.
However, the prophet of Islam is very different and it is over simplistic to claim that he was a man of his time, after all, he is meant to be a holy religious leader and both Buddha and Jesus go further back in history. Yet Mohammed married more than nine women at the same time, supported killing apostates, married a child, had sex with female slave concubines, and ordered the killing of many people by his concept of jihad and dhimmitude.
Not only this, but unlike the holy scriptures of the Christians and the New Testament or Buddhists and their holy scriptures based on what Buddha preached; then Mohammed is clearly obsessed by war, jihad, enslaving his enemies, jizya and other violent deeds.
Also, Mohammed, unlike Buddha and Jesus, is extremely contradictory and it appears that his thinking was based on power concentration. In the early period when he was weak he was more open-minded but once he obtained power then he was ruthless and he implanted ideas which were brutal towards non-Muslims.
Therefore, while Buddha and Jesus did not seek power concentration, enforcing laws on their enemies, developing military armies and implementing a draconian legal system in order to preserve power; the same can't be said about Mohammed because he was driven by power concentration policies and taxing the dhimmis (non-Muslims) or enslaving them if they did not accept the superiority of Islam.
The Buddha rejected the caste system and Jesus went to the lepers and outcasts in society. It is clear that they were against discrimination and the victimization of others and their respective message was based on humanity and turning away from power concentration and enforcing laws on people who were already downtrodden.
Mohammed, however, was very different because if people accepted Islam then he also cared for the poor within his followers and he told people to give one sixth of their income to the poor. However, it was non-Muslims who would be taxed heavily in order to redistribute their wealth and give it to the new masters. Therefore, some Muslim political leaders were also concerned by mass conversions once a political system based on Islam had been set up because this reduced their fiscal power.
After all, they faced the contradictions of an Islamic state which wanted Islamization but understood that the dhimmis tax was much needed. Not surprisingly, the revenue of an Islamic state suffered by mass conversions and for this reason Islamic slavery was ongoing from the 7th century and up until recent times.
It must be remembered that it was only outside pressure which forced Saudi Arabia to abolish slavery in the 1960s. Unlike the anti-slavery movement which emerged within the Christian world of its day you never had a Muslim anti-slavery movement and this was because of the static nature of nations which had become Islamized.
In time they lost their taxation power because Islamic law and Islamic zealots desired Islamization and once the coffers of the dhimmis had dwindled because of religious discrimination, pogroms and apartheid laws – then the last option was enslaving non-Muslims outside of their control. This factor meant that Islamic armies entered into Africa, other parts of Asia and Europe became a House of War was declared. Therefore, Islamic rulers would expand their power based on jihad, enslaving the people of their newly expanding state and so forth.
Also, Mohammed during his lifetime enslaved people who were free during numerous wars and clearly he had no qualms in taking wives or concubines from men he had killed. Not only this, he also supported Muslim armies to enslave non-Muslims and he gave Muslims the right to take non-Muslim females and use them for sex during jihad.
Ironically, all the negatives about Mohammed are stated clearly in the Koran and the Hadiths. Therefore, when people talk about anti-Islamic writers it is strange because the sources of what happened and the evil deeds of Islam are documented openly in the Hadiths and Koran.
Buddha and Jesus were revolutionary because they challenged the conventions of the day and they did this by spreading messages of peace and inner-purification. However, Mohammed who had been faithful to his first partner then appears to have gone the wrong way because after her death he lusted after more women, concubines and even married a child.
However, why didn't Muslims hide all the negatives of Mohammed and this even applies to visiting a Muslim place of worship in Jerusalem on an animal which does not exist and all at the speed of light. Yet, it is factual that the mystical night journey never happened because at the time you had no mosque in Jerusalem and even his loyal followers found it difficult to accept.
Despite this, they remained loyal to Mohammed and ignored the fact that Allah allowed him more than 4 wives and having sexual concubines. However, for other Muslims they were bound to take no more than 4 wives according to Islamic Sharia law but history tells us that many Muslim rulers had countless numbers of women in harems and so forth.
Of course you can find dark passages in all religious books if you desire or people can manipulate language or different meanings. However, religions throughout history have reformed themselves and modernized and by doing this they have rejected the harshness of aspects of some of their teachings and accepted religious freedom.
This does not apply to Islam and the more a nation is ruled by Islamic Sharia law then the more brutal the nation happens to be. In the modern world only Islamic states still support killing apostates, killing homosexuals, cross amputation, apartheid marriage laws which both discriminate against women and non-Muslims, and other draconian factors like stoning to death for adultery and allowing old men to marry children.
In my article called Prophet Mohammed, the Banu Qurayza, Kashmir, and Mansuur Mohammed I highlight many disturbing realities. Therefore, I comment that "…the Banu Qurayza tribe who followed Judaism and the Muslim convert to Christianity in Somalia in modern times, Mansuur Mohammed; represent the reality and barbarity of Islam and the same applies to the destruction of Hinduism in Kashmir. In these three events, we can see what happened to ancient Christianity in Nubia, what awaited the Zoroastrians of Persia, what awaited the fate of Buddhists and Hindus in Afghanistan, and what awaited so many other faiths by the sword of Islam."
I continued in this article by referring to the Banu Qurayza tribe and stated that Matthias Kuntzel, the author of Jihad and Jew-hatred: Islamism, Nazism and the roots of 9/11 comments on page 65 that "In 627 the Qurayza tribe was exterminated following a siege of Medina by the Meccans. Mohammed went to the marketplace in Medina and had graves dug there. Then the Jews were brought to him and beheaded at the gravesides – between 600 and 900 men in all. The executions lasted the whole day…..Most of the women and children were sold into slavery in Medina, the remainder in Syria and Najad." (Johan Bouman, op. cit., p.86)
This reality can't be ignored and I commented in the same article that "…..the prophet of Islam supported the entire massacre of all Jewish males who followed the religion of Judaism and who were over puberty. Mohammed just sat back and watched this gruesome act and did nothing, apart from divide the spoils afterwards. This barbaric act took place under the rule of Mohammed in the 7th century and in this sense the beheading of Muslim apostates to Christianity in Somalia can be linked to the deeds of Mohammed."
"Given this, Mansuur Mohammed who was beheaded in Somalia for being an apostate in the 21st century, joins the Islam of Mohammed and the 7th century because he met the same barbaric fate. Koranic prayers would have been recited while beheading the Banu Qurayza and the same applies to the al-Shabaab (al-Shabab) in Somalia who were reciting the Koran and shouting in joy while cutting the head off a Christian convert."
"Mohammed clearly approved of the entire slaughter of all Jewish males over puberty who belonged to the Banu Qurayza and he just sat back and watched the beheadings, one after one, into the hundreds, and eventually every Jewish male over puberty was killed for remaining loyal to Judaism."
"The mind of Mohammed was clearly violent because at no time did he try to stop his followers from doing this brutal crime. In direct contrast to Jesus who stopped the prostitute from being killed by stoning to death we have the prophet of Islam who endorses such barbaric methods. Mohammed not only watched this brutal genocide of all male followers of Judaism over puberty who belonged to the Banu Qurayza; for this was not enough because he also enslaved the Jewish women and children of this tribe and plundered all their wealth which was to be shared by the victorious Muslims."
"Mohammed now "set in stone the brutality of Islam" and this applies to jihad, dhimmitude, jizya, killing apostates, stoning people to death for adultery (despite doing adultery himself), plundering the wealth of the vanquished and enabling the forces of evil to kill in the name of God."
Again, I repeat once more that all this violence was endorsed by Mohammed and is documented by Islamic scholars. Therefore, the Hadiths and Koran provides this information openly despite some English versions of the Koran being manipulated in order to soften the hatred which is espoused in parts of the Koran. Ironically, the same Koran never says anything negative about Jesus and on the contrary the Koran shows Jesus in a much more favorable light than Mohammed.
It is also clear that the mindset of Islamists and Mohammed are the same because jihad is implied many times in the Koran and in the Hadiths. Therefore, how can you associate peace with Mohammed after the reality of what happened to the Banu Qurayza and the fact that he enslaved, supported and did jihad, took slave concubines, and implemented a system based on utter fear for non-Muslims because they would face persecution if they spoke out openly.
Religion can be abused by individuals, ethnic groups, political leaders and so forth and throughout history many brutal deeds have been done under the name of every religion or radical ideology. However, Karl Marx did not support killing individuals and he can't be blamed for the deeds of Stalin and others.
The same applies to dark periods within the Buddhist and Christian world where evil was justified by using and abusing the words of both individuals who supported peace.
However, "the heart of Mohammed was dark" and the reality of what happened to the Banu Qurayza can't be ignored. The same applies to his teachings because you have no Islamic reformation.
On the contrary, since the rise of Mohammed and continuing in modern day Saudi Arabia, you have no change and all apostates face the death penalty. Therefore, the pluralistic reality of Arabia was destroyed by Mohammed and once he obtained power all religions would be annihilated in Arabia in a short period of time because his early followers would continue the Islamic inquisition.
Therefore, in the land of Mecca and Medina not one Buddhist temple or Christian church is allowed and all Muslim apostates face the death penalty. Also, brutal laws which support cross amputation and allowing old men to marry young children are still ongoing in Saudi Arabia and this is all based on the life of Mohammed.
Leaders in democratic societies can ignore history, Islamic sources which support hatred of non-Muslims and the ongoing living history of Islam whereby non-Muslims face Islamization in Kashmir, Pakistan, southern Thailand and in other parts of the world in the 21st century.
Mohammed once he obtained power carried the sword and the same sword and Islamic legal system is crushing non-Muslims in the modern world. The sword of Islam is still killing and persecuting where the faith is either fighting another faith or desires to maintain an Islamic inquisition whereby every apostate faces death.
At the same time Islamic kitman and stealth jihad remains potent and history and the modern world tells us many things. However, the political correct brigade and moral relativism, alongside non-Muslim religious leaders and political leaders who are bending over backwards, is extremely worrying because Islamists and Islamic kitman leaders only dream about usurping power from within.
Buddha and Jesus spread new thinking and ideas and people can freely rebuke or not care about either. After all, it is your democratic right to reject all religion. However, apostates in "the Islamic heart of the Islamic world" face death and prison and these two competing thought patterns are not compatible in any period of history.
Either the democratic world stands up for what is right and this applies to the civil liberties of others or it can embolden an encroaching Islam by allowing Islamic kitman and stealth jihad. This is a deadly game and democracy and Marxism could not co-operate in a pluralistic society based on freedom and obviously democracy and Nazism were ideological enemies; therefore, the last barrier is Islamism and Sharia in its entirety but do democratic leaders and other institutions have the moral decency to speak out against the draconian reality of political Islam?

Somalia and the global reality of Islam
Muslims prepare to stone a man to death in Somalia
The Christians of Somalia face complete annihilation because of the systematic persecution of Christians by the followers of Sunni Islam. The Islamic inquisition is also in full swing in Afghanistan, the Maldives, Saudi Arabia, and Yemen. Therefore, the usual brutal and barbaric Islamic path of complete Islamization and utter annihilation of minorities is continuing and the way of Mohammed is being replicated by his followers.
Before the Islamization of these societies you had Buddhists and Hindus in Afghanistan and the Maldives; and Christianity, Judaism, traditional beliefs, Zoroastrianism, and other faiths, could be found in the other above mentioned nations. However, all these faiths were annihilated during countless Islamic inquisitions which led to the complete destruction of all these faiths in these Islamized lands.
However, in order to maintain the complete Islamization of these lands it is the Muslim duty to kill all apostates in accordance with the teachings of Mohammed. Therefore, in Afghanistan, the Maldives, Saudi Arabia, Somalia, and Yemen, they will not tolerate even one convert from Islam in the whole of these nations.
Despite this, we still have the mantra that "Islam means peace" and that non-Muslims have nothing to fear. However, the reality is very different and while the persecution and methodology may be different, depending on the Muslim nation state, it is still a fact of life that persecution and inequality in law is part and parcel of the Islamic faith.
Therefore, Ahmadiyya Muslims, Christians, Hindus, Sikhs, and other minorities in Pakistan, suffer mass persecution, forced conversions, institutional discrimination, and frequent murders by the followers of Islam. Coptic Christians suffer deeply in Egypt and Assyrian Christians in Iraq, and other minorities like the Mandaeans, Shabaks, and Yazidis, are under siege because Islamists are intent on spreading their evil.
Northern Nigeria is another part of the world where Sunni Muslim fanatics are intent on slaughtering and persecuting Christians and you have had many pogroms. Even when Muslims are a minority within a nation state you can get mass persecution. This applies to the religious cleansing of Hindus in Kashmir and Buddhists in southern Thailand have been beheaded by Sunni Islamists during their Islamic jihad.
Serge Trifkovic (Srdja Trifkovic) in his book called The Sword of the Prophet comments that "Islam is and always has been a religion of intolerance, a jihad without an end. Despite the way the apologists would like to depict it, Islam was spread by the sword and has been maintained by the sword throughout its history. William Muir, one of the greatest orientalists of all times (1819-1905), summed it up at the end of a long and distinguished career when he declared his conviction "that the sword of Muhammad and the Qur'an are the most fatal enemies of civilization, liberty, and truth which the world has yet known." (Page 132 – The Sword of the Prophet by Serge Trifkovic)
Of course the apologists will glorify the Sufi traditions of tolerance and enlightenment but the Sufi's were the vanguard in order to confuse or to build bridges for Islamic dawah. In truth, the Sufi's created mischief by on the outside appealing to other faiths by mutual linkages which never existed but their real motives were the continuation of Islamic jihad and to spread the Islamic faith.
Andrew G. Bostom in his article called Sufi Jihad which was published on May 15, 2005, on the American Thinker website (www.americanthinker.com), highlights the reality of the Sufi doctrine by the following statement: "Consistent with this nexus between Sufism and orthodox Islam, Sufis have supported (fervently) the corollary institution of dhimmitude, replete with all its oppressive and humiliating regulations for non—Muslims. It is also important to highlight, in contrast, the very flimsy theological foundation of the much ballyhooed Sufi notion of the so—called 'greater' spiritual jihad. Even the Islamophilic scholar Reuven Firestone has acknowledged the dubious nature of the hadith ostensibly outlining this potential interpretation of jihad: [1]"
Turning back to Serge Trifkovic he comments that "The West cannot wage "war on terror" while maintaining its dependence on Arab oil, appeasing Islamist aggression around the world, turning a blind eye to the Islamic destruction of peoples who are animists, Hindus, and Christians, and allowing mass immigration of Muslims into its own lands." (Page 260 – The Sword of the Prophet by Serge Trifkovic)
Serge Trifkovic also states that "If the Saudis have the right to travel to Western countries and build mosques, then we should have the right to engage in open missionary activity in Saudi Arabia or anywhere else. We have every right to proclaim our ideas of Western freedom and an open society, whether this offends other countries' rulers or not. We have no obligation to "respect other cultures" and ideas when those cultures and ideas lead to human suffering, misery, and servitude. We have every right to protect our ideas and way of life by openly proclaiming the superiority of our principles." (Page 299)
In the final paragraph of his book Serge Trifkovic states that "Islam, in Muhammad's texts and its codification, discriminates against us. It is extremely offensive. Those who submit to that faith must solve the problem they set themselves. Islam discriminates against all "unbelievers." Until the petrodollars support a Kuranic revisionism that does not, we should go for it with whips and scorpions, hammer and tongs. Secularists and believers of all other faiths must act together before it is too late." (Page 301 – The Sword of the Prophet by Serge Trifkovic)
In modern day Somalia the Al-Shabab desire a pure Sunni Islamic state which is based on killing all converts to Christianity and introducing draconian laws in order to replicate the hatred of Mohammed and to install an Islamic state which is based on Islamic Sharia law, the Hadiths, and the Koran.
This Islamic state will enforce Islam by the rule of fear and it will openly stone to death men and women for adultery, kill apostates, cut hands and feet off in minor criminal cases, kill homosexuals, whip women who do not cover up from head to toe, and countless other barbaric ways. These ideas and laws are based on the teachings of Mohammed and the reality of modern day Somalia is the same reality which befell the Jews of Arabia in the 7th century.
In my article called Prophet Mohammed, the Banu Qurayza, Kashmir, and Mansuur Mohammed I give a quote from the book written by Matthias Kuntzel, Jihad and Jew-hatred: Islamism, Nazism and the roots of 9/11. On page 65 it states that "In 627 the Qurayza tribe was exterminated following a siege of Medina by the Meccans. Mohammed went to the marketplace in Medina and had graves dug there. Then the Jews were brought to him and beheaded at the gravesides – between 600 and 900 men in all. The executions lasted the whole day…..Most of the women and children were sold into slavery in Medina, the remainder in Syria and Najad." (Johan Bouman, op. cit., p.86)
I comment in my article that "….the prophet of Islam supported the entire massacre of all Jewish males who followed the religion of Judaism and who were over puberty. Mohammed just sat back and watched this gruesome act and did nothing, apart from divide the spoils afterwards. This barbaric act took place under the rule of Mohammed in the 7th century and in this sense the beheading of Muslim apostates to Christianity in Somalia can be linked to the deeds of Mohammed."
In nations like Afghanistan, the Maldives, Saudi Arabia, Somalia, and Yemen, all apostates face the death penalty and the brutality of Mohammed and the mass slaughter of the Banu Qurayza in the 7th century can be found in parts of the modern Muslim world of the 21st century because in their worldview it is all about "the Islamic year zero."
Therefore, we have a world where the indigenous Coptics Christians of Egypt, Hindus of Kashmir, Assyrians of Iraq, and a host of others, reside in fear because of the reality of Islam. At the same time Islam is growing in many non-Muslim nations and nations that support killing all apostates, like Saudi Arabia, are allowed to spread their faith and build thousands of Islamic organizations and Mosques all over the world.
If democratic nations are closed to the reality of modern day Afghanistan, Saudi Arabia, Somalia, and the reality of the majority of Muslim nations in the 21st century and they have learnt nothing from history; then the democratic world is being betrayed by our own political and religious leaders. After all, Islamists are at war against religious diversity, political freedom, human rights, and all notions of social justice based on pluralism and liberalism.
If you want to look at the heart of Islam then it can be found in the mass slaughter of the Banu Qurayza who followed Judaism. The hatred that Mohammed installed within his followers can be seen in the 21st century in Somalia and a host of other Islamic nations because you have no change. Therefore, political and religious leaders in the free world need to wake up because history and the modern world clearly shows us that the same Islamic barbarity is alive and it is stretching its tentacles.

Prophet Mohammed, the Banu Qurayza, Kashmir, and Mansuur Mohammed
Banu Qurayza were followers of Judaism and many hundreds
of Jews were beheaded during the reign of Mohammed
The prophet of Islam is being re-vamped in the West and many Muslims desire to gloss over the harsh reality of their own prophet. In modern times Mohammed is the great family man despite marrying countless numbers of wives, getting divorced many times, having sex with concubines, and marrying a child. Yet the Mohammed of Arabia who ruled with an iron-fist and what his followers did to non-Muslims can be witnessed by events in the 7th century and right up to modern times.
The events that I refer to applies to the systematic annihilation of all male Jews who were over the age of puberty and the ongoing barbarity of radical Islam in modern day Somalia and Kashmir.
Therefore, the Banu Qurayza tribe who followed Judaism and the Muslim convert to Christianity in Somalia in modern times, Mansuur Mohammed; represent the reality and barbarity of Islam and the same applies to the destruction of Hinduism in Kashmir. In these three events, we can see what happened to ancient Christianity in Nubia, what awaited the Zoroastrians of Persia, what awaited the fate of Buddhists and Hindus in Afghanistan, and what awaited so many other faiths by the sword of Islam.
Before focusing on this issue, it is clear that other faiths have spread by the sword but unlike Islam, no other faith can claim that their prophet was responsible for such hatred or that laws were stated which supported jihad, dhimmitude, and enslavement. Also, while other faiths have looked deep "into their own personal demons" the same does not apply to the Islamic world.
It is clear that human failings like overt nationalism, the control of resources, feudalism, and many upheavals have happened in history. However, you can not equate the negatives within the Buddhist world or Christian world on the teachings of Buddha or Jesus. After all, both supported peace and stood up to the status quo by challenging people to focus on love, compassion, and a fair society.
However, the prophet of Islam is very different because in his world view it was clear that force and coercion were political and religious tools. Mohammed clearly supported the notion of Islamic jihad; stealing from the defeated enemy; enslaving people who did not accept dhimmitude; and laying the foundation of a brutal legal system which kills apostates, chops the hands of petty criminals, and stones people to death for adultery despite the fact that Mohammed did adultery with his concubines.
Often people like to clump all religions together, however, it doesn't wash because not once did Buddha or Jesus kill nor did they desire political power or to marry countless number of women while claiming to be religious. On the contrary, Mohammed rewards Muslims for killing non-Muslims, by having virgins waiting for them when they sacrifice themselves during jihad.
Jesus, however, gave his own life in order that others can find salvation and of course you have no pre-conditions because people are free to reject him or accept him and only the afterlife will judge providing you have an afterlife?
In Islam this is seen to be weak and the God of Mohammed seeks control, power, to enforce dhimmitude, to kill in the name of Allah, and to install a legal system which favors Muslims over the inferior non-Muslims.
I will now turn back to the 7th century and the lifetime of Mohammed because he set in motion a religion which would engulf many parts of the world and this applies to terror, war, dhimmitude and Islamic jihad.
Matthias Kuntzel, the author of Jihad and Jew-hatred: Islamism, Nazism and the roots of 9/11 highlights on page 65 that "In 627 the Qurayza tribe was exterminated following a siege of Medina by the Meccans. Mohammed went to the marketplace in Medina and had graves dug there. Then the Jews were brought to him and beheaded at the gravesides – between 600 and 900 men in all. The executions lasted the whole day…..Most of the women and children were sold into slavery in Medina, the remainder in Syria and Najad." (Johan Bouman, op. cit., p.86)
Therefore, the prophet of Islam supported the entire massacre of all Jewish males who followed the religion of Judaism and who were over puberty. Mohammed just sat back and watched this gruesome act and did nothing, apart from divide the spoils afterwards. This barbaric act took place under the rule of Mohammed in the 7th century and in this sense the beheading of Muslim apostates to Christianity in Somalia can be linked to the deeds of Mohammed.
In my article called Killing Christians in Somalia, burning Bibles in Pakistan and stealth jihad. I stated that "…we have silence when Christians are being beheaded while Muslims recite the Koran and shout "Allah Akbar" while killing someone in such a brutal way".
In the minds of Islamists who support the ways and deeds of Mohammed they are following in the footsteps of their bloodthirsty prophet. Therefore, the beheading of Mansuur Mohammed who converted from Islam to Christianity in Somalia is connected to the "same evil forces" which were unleashed by Muslims under Mohammed during his lifetime.
The mind of Mohammed was clearly evil because at no time did he try to stop his followers from doing this brutal crime. In direct contrast to Jesus who stopped the prostitute from being killed by stoning to death we have the prophet of Islam who endorses such barbaric methods. Mohammed not only watched this brutal genocide of all male followers of Judaism over puberty who belonged to the Banu Qurayza; for this was not enough because he also enslaved the Jewish women and children of this tribe and plundered all their wealth which was to be shared by the victorious Muslims.
Islamists all over the world, irrespective if they are in Afghanistan, Saudi Arabia, Somalia, or wherever, support the methodology of Mohammed and many desire to spread this faith and enforce dhimmitude on the people of the book or to massacre and destroy the foundations of Buddhism, Hinduism, and other faiths. At the same time you have Islamists within the democratic world, for example in America, Germany, India, the UK, and other nations, who desire to spread Islam and to weaken the foundations of democracy in order to Islamize the entire world.
In our own lifetime we have witnessed the Islamization of Kashmir "in silence "and a civilization which nurtured this land for thousands of years and the Hindus of this area may end up like the Buddhists and Hindus of Afghanistan? This applies to the complete Islamization of an area which once had a flourishing Hindu civilization but just like the destruction of Buddhism and Hinduism in Afghanistan by Islamic forces and then the destruction of all signs of this culture, the same fate awaits the Hindus of Kashmir if Islamists get their way.
If you check the website of http://www.kashmiri-pandit.org/sundry/genocide.html it states the following:
"Terrorism in Kashmir is an ideological struggle with specified political commitments which are fundamentalist and communal in character.
Terrorist violence is aimed at achieving the disengagement of the state of Jammu and Kashmir from India and its annexation to Pakistan. It is, the continuation of the Islamic fundamentalist struggle for the homeland of Pakistan which claims Jammu and Kashmir state on account of its Muslim majority character.
The major dimension of the terrorist violence in Kashmir is the terrorists' commitment to the extermination and subjugation of the Hindus in the state because Hindus do not subscribe to the idea of separation from India, nor do they expect to be governed by the authority of the state which derives its sanction from the law and precedent of Islam. Kashmiri Pandits (Hindus) have always been in the forefront of the struggle against secessionism, communalism and fundamentalism. Hence this peace loving minority with a modern outlook became the main victim of terrorist violence. The strategies involved in the terrorists' operation against the Hindus in Kashmir include:
"The extermination of Hindus; subjecting Hindus to brutal torture to instill fear among them in order to achieve their submission; and to engineer a forced mass exodus of Hindus from the land of their ancestors and birth by way of issuing threatening letters, kidnappings and torture deaths on non-compliance of the terrorists' dictates and ensure the destruction of the secular and pluralistic character of the socio-political fabric of the Kashmiri Society."
If we go back to Arabia before Mohammed and during his early life then it is clear that Arabia was pluralistic and you had Christians, Jews, Pagans, and other faiths. However, during the lifetime of Mohammed the sword would be taken to Pagans and the followers of Judaism, once Mohammed obtained power. Also, just like the destruction of all non-Muslim faiths in Afghanistan (Buddhism, Hinduism, and others) by the followers of Islam the prophet of Islam had done the same and in time the same fate would await the Christians of Arabia.
Therefore, Mohammed had supported the entire destruction of Arab Paganism and Judaism, and in time the same fate would await Christians once complete Islamization had taken over all aspects of society. Modern Islamists are connected with this 7th century methodology because Islamists are doing the same in Kashmir with regards to the destruction of Hinduism.
The followers of Islam are also killing every single apostate that they can find in Somalia and all Christians converts face being beheaded or killed in other ways, while their children are being taken and converted to Islam. Buddhists in southern Thailand face the same Islamic methodology and many Buddhist priests have been killed alongside other Buddhists and moderate Muslims who are deemed to be apostates for supporting pluralism.
The mindset of the prophet of Islam is ongoing and lives on within the brutal legal system of Islamic Sharia law; the destruction of other faiths by the followers of Islam in Kashmir, southern Thailand, Somalia, and in other parts of the world; and the mindset of Mohammed lives on within every murder of an innocent Christian, Hindu, Sikh, or other in Pakistan.
After all, the followers of Islam desire to enforce dhimmitude on non-Muslims (Egypt, Iran, and others) or the eradication of non-Muslim faiths within an Islamic monoculture (Afghanistan, Saudi Arabia, Somalia, Yemen, and others). Therefore, the beheadings of over 600 followers of Judaism in the lifetime of Mohammed and the beheading of the Christian convert, Mansuur Mohammed, in the 21st century are connected.
The same applies to the ongoing Islamization of Kashmir where a rich Hindu civilization is under threat from complete Islamization. Therefore, the Hindus of this region are like the Arab Pagans and followers of Judaism in the time of Mohammed because both face extermination and the destruction of their culture and all traces of Hindu architecture is under threat. However, while the world remembers the destruction of Buddhist symbols in Afghanistan not a murmur is being said in the international community about the plight of Hindus in Kashmir.
In truth, it is clear that Mohammed and the mindset of Islamists are the same and jihad and plunder goes hand in hand. The 7th century and 21st century are the same in the minds of Islamists because they desire power, control, dhimmitude, jizya, and so forth; liberals can fool themselves but history teaches us that Islam destroyed many Buddhist, Christian, Hindu, Jewish, Pagan, and Zoroastrians societies.
If leaders in democratic societies desire to ignore history and a living history of Islamization in Kashmir, Pakistan, southern Thailand, and in other parts of the world in the 21st century then the sword of Islam and stealth jihad will work hand in hand in order to obtain power in new lands.

Islamic radicalism or Islamic liberalism: which is the real threat?
Lee Jay Walker – The Modern Tokyo Times
Islamic terrorism is spreading its hatred
In the 21st century you have two types of Islam and this applies to the systematic persecution of minorities, for example which is happening in Iraq, the Maldives, Pakistan, Saudi Arabia, Somalia, Yemen, and many other Muslim dominated nations. This violence is aimed at converting minorities or crushing them via dhimittude and systematic persecution.
The other type of Islam is aimed at "stealth jihad" and this comes via liberalism, blatant lies about the real Mohammed, control over the media, playing the persecution card, inter-marriage but with the child or children always being Muslim, and a complete re-writing of history and facts. At the same time many non-Muslim liberals or the political correct brigade are sowing the seeds for Islamic expansion because of the manipulation of language.
Therefore, it is often perceived that Islamic radicalism is the real threat and not Islamic liberalism, yet how true is this? For history teaches that Islam not only conquered by the sword, but also via liberals who preached a different Islam in order to convert the masses. Yet irrespective if former nations were conquered by the sword or via Sufi mystics or liberal versions of Islam, the outcome was normally the same and this applies to the gradual Islamization of society. This in turn led to dhimmitude, religious persecution, female exploitation, and backwardness.
Today the sword of Islam is still forcing non-Muslims to convert in nations like Sudan and Somalia, and systematic persecution in majority based Muslim nations is ongoing. Despite this, many liberals and Western leaders remain silent about the true nature of Islam, the Hadiths, and Islamic Sharia law. Even worse, many major leaders are praising Islam and it is clear that Islamists are winning the media war in many parts of the world.
For example in the United Kingdom the ex-Prime Minister, Tony Blair, often praised the beauty of Islam and he stated openly that he often reads the Koran. And similar major figures like Prince Charles glorify Islam and he supports Islamic organizations in the United Kingdom. At the same time the mass media ignores major issues like forced conversion, Islamic Sharia Law which discriminates against both women and non-Muslims and other draconian facts about Islam.
Also, nations like Saudi Arabia are free to spread their propaganda and build Islamic institutions throughout the West. Therefore, despite the fact that Saudi Arabia persecutes all non-Muslims it is still clear that this nation can spread false images of Islam and attack nations from within.
At the same time Islamic leaders at major institutions are spreading a liberal version of Islam and if you didn't know about the "real" Mohammed, you would believe that Mohammed was gentle, loved humanity, treated women with respect and that he was a forerunner of global human rights. Yet the "real" Mohammed made it clear that the enslavement of non-Muslims and war was justifiable in order to spread Islam. Mohammed also stated that male Islamic apostates must be killed and he made sure that non-Muslims were inferior in law and had to pay extra taxes via the system of dhimmitude.
Therefore, while Islamic militants are a threat with regards to Islamic terrorism and persecuting non-Muslims in nations like Pakistan, Saudi Arabia, Somalia, Sudan and countless other mainly Islamic nations; this does not apply to the whole picture. For in Western Europe, North America, East Asia, and other parts of the world, Islam can not conquer by the sword, yet the message of Islam and Islamization can take place via mass migration and liberal Muslims spreading an enlightened version of Islam, which does not apply in the real "Islamic world."
Given this, the real threat of Islamization is not via people like Osama Bin Laden when it comes to developed nations. Instead the real threat is liberal Islam and non-Muslims who are re-writing history. Also, many liberal nations are bending-over-backwards in order to reach out to the so-called Muslim world, therefore, the stealth jihad is growing and Islam is being protected by the very same liberals who would be crushed and persecuted under Islamic Sharia law.
For example, Karen Armstrong is teaching an alternative history of Islam and her Prophet Mohamme is very different to say the least. The same applies to Prince Charles and many others, for these people Mohammed was a man of peace and of course they negate to mention that Mohammed supported jihad, that he cleansed Arabia of Jews and Pagans, and that he married a child and so forth.
Therefore, the spread of Islam is growing in nations like the United Kingdom and at least 50,000 people have converted to Islam. Yet why did they convert? Was it because of people like Osama Bin Laden or because of people like Karen Armstrong and Islamic liberals? Or is it because of other factors like marriage and the fact that little is said about the real nature of Islam?
It is also baffling that religious leaders in the West are also quiet about the threat of Islam or the persecution of non-Muslims in mainly Islamic nations. And when brave religious leaders rebuke Islam, Sharia Law and the Hadiths, they in turn become rebuked by their own co-religionists. Why?
Surely religious leaders have a duty to tell the truth and to warn their co-religionists about Islamic persecution throughout the Muslim world? However, their silence is helping Islam to grow. Therefore, how many of the 50,000 British national converts know about the real Mohammed?
Were they told that Mohammed had slaves, had sex with a child, killed Jews and Pagans, attacked caravans, divorced many times, had sex with concubines, and so forth?
The irony is that Osama Bin Laden is a "real" Muslim who follows the teachings of Islam; and even if you hate this person, he at least follows his convictions which have been installed into him from reading the Koran, the Hadiths and Sharia Law. Yet Islamic liberals, like Sufi teachers, are hypocrites and they are the real threat. For once the liberal period of Islam manages to Islamize society, then only one conclusion will happen and this applies to a future society being backward and based on Sharia Islamic Law.
In the past the Islamization of many nations took place either quickly because of forced conversions, massacres, slavery, dhimmitude, and so on. Or Islamization was slow and Sufi leaders were then sent in order to talk about the love of God and this lead to confusion or to fusions which would lead to Islamic conversion but based on outside influences.
However, this love of God in time became replaced by conservative Islam and non-Muslims were subdued or became a small minority, or in the case of Buddhism and Hinduism in Afghanistan, then being wiped from the face of Afghanistan. Given this, then which is the real threat, is it Osama Bin Laden and fellow Islamists who will wake people up to read about the real nature of Mohammed and Islam. Or is it Islamic liberals and non-Muslim liberals who are re-writing Islam?

Afghanistan needs to be de-Islamized
Afghanistan women are still chained despite western econoimc support.
Afghanistan is clearly in crisis and de-Islamization is needed in order to break the chain. However, the current policy of both Western donors and the government of Afghanistan are just maintaining the corrupt and inefficient status quo. It begs the question, why?
Hundreds if not trillions of dollars have been wasted on Afghanistan and does anyone notice any real change? Do you now have the start of a "new Afghanistan?"
Clearly the answer is that the same Islamic monoculture exists and you have no sexual freedom or religious freedom. Instead, the next generation is going to end up like the last generation and this applies to being brainwashed by the mosque and to keep women downtrodden.
Therefore, why did ex-President George Bush and the current leader President Obama, allow this to happen? Is it right to send American soldiers and other NATO troops to die for implementing and then maintaining Islamic Sharia law?
These innocent soldiers believe that they are aiding democracy and helping to install a bright future for the people of Afghanistan. Yet sadly this is not the case because political leaders are pandering to Islam and maintaining the structures which created such a backward society in the first place. It is clearly folly, but you have thousands of so called experts talking about counterterrorism but in reality the best way of doing this is via de-Islamization and not maintaining the status quo.
The land that became Afghanistan once had a flourishing culture which was diverse. This applies to Buddhism, Hinduism, Zoroastrianism, Christianity, Judaism, Shamanism, and other faiths. However, the Islamic invasions changed all this and the Islamic sword destroyed this rich diversity via dhimmitude, forced conversions, and controlling all the power mechanisms. The end result was a Muslim monoculture and the stagnation of society in Afghanistan. Therefore, modernization was crushed by the Islamic inquisition.
In my article called "USA and CIA helped to create Sunni Islamic terrorism" I stated the following:
"To place an exact date is complex because links between America and radical Sunni Islamic forces run deep but it is clear that democratic forces, nationalistic movements, pan-Arabism, socialism, and other more moderate forces were seen to be the enemy. For example, Egypt went from being secular under Nasser to adopting Islamic laws under the pro-American, Anwar Sadat.
The same scenario would happen in Pakistan because America welcomed General Muhammad Zia-ul-Haq who took power in the late 1970s. Therefore, Pakistan was transformed into a more Islamized nation whereby laws and other institutions would be Islamized. In time the USA would strengthen their ties with Zia-ul-Haq in order to fund the Islamic insurgency in Afghanistan.
The Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) implemented Operation Cyclone and this policy was aimed at supporting the Afghan Mujahideen during the Soviet war in Afghanistan. Jimmy Carter and Zbigniew Brzezinski began a new policy whereby America would support radical Islam in the full knowledge that this meant supporting terrorism and a movement which supported killing all apostates from Islam and persecuting women."
It is clearly true that the first Islamic jihad began when Mohammed ordered this and since the 7th century you have had countless Islamic jihads in Africa, Asia, and Europe. History clearly tells us that Islam supports the notion of a holy war and this notion led to the enslavement of many cultures and religions. Therefore, it is clear that while communism may have been a threat it was clearly much more enlightened than Islam when it came to women. However, just like Islam, communism believed in religious persecution but whereas Islam believes in the persecution of all non-Muslims, the communists believed in the persecution of all religions.
Yet, from an historical reality it was clear that Islam was the main enemy when it came to democracy, modernity, sexual equality, religious freedom, equality in law, and a world based on openness and shared values. After all, radical Islam, or Islam itself, is not tolerant because throughout history we have witnessed holy wars against Buddhists, Christians, Hindus, Jews, Zoroastrians, and others; and even in the 21st century Islam is at war with many other faith groups and it is at war with itself and killing Ahmadiyya Muslims and Shia Muslims.
Communism, pan-Arabism, fascism, and other political ideologies have come and gone; however, Islamic totalitarianism remains and it began with Mohammed and continues in many parts of the world today. Indeed, this Islamic totalitarianism is spreading even within democratic nations like America and the United Kingdom and many Islamists from these nations support the implementation of Islamic Sharia law and Islamic jihad.
Germany and Japan were defeated in the Second World War and German Nazism and Japanese fascism were crushed. The Japanese who believed that the Emperor was a God were soon enlightened by a new democratic constitution and democracy was installed in West Germany. Also, both societies were transformed and all the hatred was taken out of the major institutions and in a short time both nations would be transformed.
However, look at the reality of both Iraq and Afghanistan after America's intervention because Najibullah and Saddam Hussein believed in secular law (yes both leaders used brutal measures in order to maintain power and control). Yet, astonishingly, both secular Iraq and Afghanistan were allowed to change the constitution and now both nations are based on Islamic Sharia law and this happened under America.
For many Christians in Iraq they have been turned into dhimmis and despite the despotic reality of Saddam Hussein, it is clear that they had more religious freedom and this applies to the legal system. Therefore, why did America and her allies support the implementation of Islamic Sharia law and help in the destruction of Christianity in Iraq?
Turning the clock back to modern times in Afghanistan then are we witnessing the flourishing of a new democratic order? Clearly no, and instead of changing the constitution like America and the allies did in Germany and Japan; we have the opposite, therefore, women are scared to show their face and converts from Islam face being killed.
It is clear that counterterrorism does not mean the implementation of Islamic Sharia and allowing the mosque and Islam to control society and create an Islamic monoculture. However, this is what is happening and astonishingly Saudi Arabia is still seen to be an ally despite this nation spreading radical Islam to so many nations.
In my article which I stated earlier I commented that "The late Benazir Bhutto stated that "You are creating a Frankenstein." Benazir Bhutto stated this when she met President George H. W. Bush in the late 1980s. This "Frankenstein" would certainly come back to haunt America and Pakistan, and of course undermine Afghanistan to this day."
Given this, then it is abundantly clear that the killing of Christian converts from Islam, stoning women to death, flogging people, chopping hands and feet off because of Islamic Sharia punishments, were all tolerated by America and the people who supported radical Islam in both Afghanistan and Pakistan (late 1970s to mid-1990s)."
However, let us refocus on modern day Afghanistan and the need for de-Islamization instead of more Islamization and maintaining the status quo.
If America and her allies want to change society then why did they go against what they did to Japan and Germany? It is clear that de-Islamization is needed in order to break the chains of the ongoing Islamic monoculture which is destroying the very fabric of society.
Education needs to be secular and a new generation needs to break free from Islamic indoctrination. The mass media needs to be free and newspapers, television stations, radio stations, and so forth, need a flourishing secular outlet and funding should be spent on developing this and the much needed secular education system.
Islamic funding from nations like Saudi Arabia must be banned because they have caused enough mayhem already. Also, the legal system needs to be changed and Islamic Sharia law must be abolished.
At the same time religious freedom must be enshrined in the new constitution and the same applies to female emancipation. Positive discrimination towards women must be installed until the chains of bondage are eradicated and laws must be implemented in order to protect females from honor killings, child marriage, and other evil forms of power and control.
The Islamic mosque must be taken out of politics and educating the next generation and instead the mosque must become a place of worship. Charity functions should also be secularized and the drug trade needs to be eradicated because this is aiding the Islamists and destroying society.
The current status quo means that converts to Christianity face the death penalty and women remain in the shadows. Surely the brave soldiers from America, the UK, and other nations, are not dying for this? It is therefore about time for political leaders to respect their deaths and focus on transforming Afghanistan and not appeasing backwardness and Islamization.

Radical Islamic charities and jihad in the Balkans
Christian slaves in the Balkans under Turkish rule
The role of Islamic charities is a serious issue because many are based on spreading radical Islam via indoctrination or by supporting terrorism or political goals which should be way outside their remit. Indeed, the war in Bosnia resembled the same patterns which flowed in Afghanistan, Pakistan, the Philippines, and other nations, whereby Islamic terrorism or radical ideology or a fusion of both were transported via Islamic charities.
It is vital that these channels are fully closed in Albania, Bosnia, Kosovo (Serbia), Macedonia, and other areas in the Balkans. If not, then this region will further fragment and religious polarization and communal tensions will increase and radical Islam will continue to enhance its foothold in this part of Europe.
Added to this, it is clear that international Islamists will also try to use the Balkans in order to plan covert terrorist attacks and to enforce Sharia Islamic law on people who reside in majority held Muslim areas. After all, for international Islamists it appears that time is on their side because the Muslim birthrate is much higher than the Christian birthrate in this part of Europe.
Therefore, some Islamic charities are intent on installing mass propaganda, indoctrination, a sense of victimization, and the need to transform more moderate Muslims into "true Muslims" via the Wahhabi branch of Sunni Islam.
In truth, this is not only happening in the Balkans because the same struggles and methods are happening in the United Kingdom and a host of other nations. For example in my article called the 'USA and the Internal Islamic Threat' I quote B. Raman (Additional Secretary (retd), Cabinet Secretariat, Govt. of India, New Delhi) who states that "For the last fifteen years, there has been a conflict between the Deobandis and the Barelvis for the control of the mosques and their funds not only in Pakistan, but also in the UK. Previously, the Barelvis used to control the mosques in the UK frequented by immigrants from the sub-continent, but they have since been driven out by the Deobandis and Wahhabis. This was the starting point for the radicalization of the Pakistani-origin Muslims in the UK and in the other countries of West Europe. The ISI (Pakistan's Inter-Services Intelligence) has been supporting the Sipah-e-Sahaba and the LEJ in Pakistan as well as in West Europe."
I also point out that "….the Muslim community in the UK in the 1960s and 1970s is very different to elements within the Muslim community today." However, more alarming for the Balkans is that the Muslim minority in Bosnia (largest single group now but not a majority) and Macedonia will in time become a majority. Therefore, what happens over the following decades will pave the way ahead for either a confrontational region or where accommodation can be met.
If we look at past events in Kosovo and Turkey then it is clear that these mainly Christian areas of the Balkans became Islamized because of war, ethnic cleansing, persecution, dhimmitude, slavery, forced conversions, jizya, indoctrination, discrimination in law, and so forth.
Added to this, is the reality that Islam is an ideology and religion which is fused together and non-Muslims who have lived under Islamic Sharia law have all faced only one outcome. This outcome is the dwindling of their religious flock or like in Turkey it culminated in the Armenian/Assyrian/Greek genocide of 1915 which witnessed the deaths of millions of Christians.
The Orthodox Christians of the Balkans and Hindus of the Indian subcontinent only survived because of their huge numbers but major Islamic inroads were achieved. For example in Albania, Bangladesh, Kosovo, and Pakistan, you have Muslim majorities after past Islamic invasions and you have significant minorities in Bulgaria, Bosnia, Cyprus, Macedonia, and Montenegro.
It is also clear that Islam did not modernize society; on the contrary, it merely created stagnation and religious bigotry on a grand scale. Therefore, today you have major religious persecution of Christians, Hindus, and Sikhs, in Pakistan and in Bangladesh you have to add on the persecution of Buddhists and other minorities in the Chittagong Hill Tracts.
India may not be perfect and religious and ethnic tensions also erupt from time to time, however, India is a flourishing democracy and all religions have freedom and equality. Also, the government of India supports and protects the citizens of this nation by a legal system which is equal to all religious members.
However, Islamic Sharia law is based on the supremacy of Islam over all other faith groups and past history and modern history tells us about mass persecution. After all, in modern day Saudi Arabia they will not allow one single Christian church or Buddhist place of worship and conversion from Islam is deemed punishable by death.
Indeed, it is Saudi Arabia and other Islamic nations which are causing mayhem today in the Balkans because they desire to spread radical Islam. Therefore, turning back to the role of charities we should take heed of what was stated by Vojin Joksimovich in his book called 'The Revenge of The Prophet.'
Vojin Joksimovich highlights this in chapter five because he focuses on the role of Islamic charities. This applies to terrorism, indoctrination and the goal of creating an Islamic state in Bosnia and for others, then much further. On page 161 of 'The Revenge of The Prophet' the author Vojin Joksimovich informs us that the Third World Relief Agency (TWRA) stated that "Bosnia must become a Muslim state eventually, for if that did not happen, then the whole war would be senseless and would have been fought for nothing – concluded in 1994 Elfatih Ali Hasanejin (Elfatih Hassanein), the head of the organization the TWRA" (Miroslav Toholj, p.81)
It is clear, therefore, that many Islamic charities are not like Christian Aid, for example, instead they are directly involved in either terrorist networks or Islamization or a mixture of both, depending on the given charity.
Vojin Joksimovich also highlights this by stating that "There was a close partnership between the Islamist network in the U.S. and the one in Bosnia. Emerson, in his testimony to the U.S. Congress, pointed out the entire spectrum of radical groups from the Middle East has been replicated in the U.S. (Steven Emerson, 1998) Page 151
"Emerson cited Oliver Revell, former Associate FBI Deputy Director: The U.S. is the most preferred and easiest place in the world for radical Islamic groups to set up their headquarters to wage war in their homelands, destabilize and attack American allies and ultimately move against the U.S. itself" (ibid.) Page 151
Vojin Joksimovich adds that "Much of this has changed since 9/11 and the passage of the Patriot Act. However, with the new American administration of President Obama reaching out to the so-called Islamic world then maybe America "is closing its eyes again" because even the usage of 'Islamic terrorism' is now on the back burner and instead it is appeasement time once more.
John Pomfret, Washington Post Foreign Service, wrote an article called 'Bosnia's Muslims Dodged Embargo' (Sunday, September 22, 1996; Page A01). He stated that "Last September, European police backed by anti-terrorist squads raided the office here of a seemingly obscure organization, the Third World Relief Agency, headed by a one-time Sudanese diplomat named Elfatih Hassanein."
"Since then, poring over several van loads of documents, they have pieced together one of the untold stories of the Bosnian war: how Bosnia's Muslim-led government evaded a United Nations arms embargo and purchased hundreds of millions of dollars worth of black-market weapons."
"In the documents and in the bank accounts of the Third World Relief Agency, Austrian investigators have tracked $350 million they say flowed from Muslim governments and radical Islamic movements to Bosnia. At least half was used to purchase weapons illegally and smuggle them to the Bosnian government army, according to Western intelligence estimates."
This article highlights the linkage between so-called Islamic charities and the reality of what was really happening. This applies to linkages between the TWRA, elements within the Bosnian Muslim leadership including Alija Izetbegovic, Osama Bin Laden, Sheik Omar Abdel Rahman, and a host of other major terrorists and nations which were either friends or foe of America.
The article also highlights the role of Bill Clinton and his role in allowing these terrorist networks to move freely despite many massacres against innocent Christians and in the knowledge of what Islamic terrorism meant.
John Pomfret continues by stating that"The agency took funds and support for Bosnia from wherever it could find it, and the bulk of the cash originated in the Middle East: Iran was a big contributor, as was Sudan, which like Iran is on the U.S. State Department's watch-list of countries that support terrorism. Saudi Arabia was the largest contributor, according to banking officials and intelligence sources, and donations also came from pro-Western countries like Pakistan, Turkey, Brunei and Malaysia."
"But militants in the terrorist underworld are also believed to have used the relief agency to get money to the Bosnian government, including the wealthy Saudi Arabian émigré Osama Bin Laden, a suspected sponsor of militant Islamic groups around the Middle East. Bin Laden, a resident of Sudan until last year, is reportedly now in Afghanistan, where he has issued statements calling for attacks on U.S. forces in the Persian Gulf."
"Investigators say the agency also had ties to Sheik Omar Abdel Rahman, a radical Egyptian cleric who was convicted of planning several terrorist bombings in New York and is linked to the group that carried out the World Trade Center bombing in February 1993. Intelligence agencies say they have tapes of telephone calls by Rahman to the agency's office, during which he discussed its commitment to sell the sheik's videotapes and sermons in mosques around Europe."
"Hassanein, identified by Western sources as a member of Sudan's ruling National Islamic Front, built his arms smuggling operation with Islamic activists from Bosnia who, like him, had ties to Izetbegovic, the Bosnian president. Several of these men now hold senior positions in the Bosnian government and, according to U.S. officials, they form the core of a radical Islamic movement that has resisted U.S. attempts to exert influence over the army and security services."
The CIA also states that prominent Islamic charities were involved in terrorism because the report which was given to the State Department (1/1996) states that "……of more than 50 Islamic nongovernmental organizations (NGOs) in existence, "available information indicates that approximately one-third… support terrorist groups or employ individuals who are suspected of having terrorist connections." The report notes that most of the offices of NGOs active in Bosnia are located in Zagreb, Sarajevo, Zenica, and Tuzla. There are coordination councils there organizing the work of the charity fronts."
"The report notes that some charities may be "backed by powerful interest groups," including governments. "We continue to have evidence that even high ranking members of the collecting or monitoring agencies in Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, and Pakistan – such as the Saudi High Commission – are involved in illicit activities, including support for terrorists." The Wall Street Journal will later comment, "Disclosure of the report may raise new questions about whether enough was done to cut off support for terrorism before the attacks of Sept. 11, 2001… and about possible involvement in terrorism by Saudi Arabian officials." (Central Intelligence Agency, 1/1996; Wall Street Journal, 5/9/2003)
Moving back to recent times in the Balkans it is clear that many radical Islamic organizations are intent on spreading radical Islam and charity organizations must be investigated closely and the same applies to educational institutions. After all, radical Islamists are good at spreading their own version of Islam and if these money channels are not closed down and monitored correctly then another southern Thailand or Pakistan may develop within Europe?
Returning back to Vojin Joksimovich he states that "Bosnia established a successful model for embattled countries around the world: organizing, arming, and funding mujahideen units, skimming money from humanitarian charities, linking up with crime bosses including narco-terrorists, etc. Islamism both produces and profits from mayhem. Albeit to a much lesser magnitude, the Bosnian model was replicated later on in Kosovo, Southern Serbia and Macedonia. Al Qaeda and the Taliban found a route for the heroin trafficking from Afghanistan into Europe via the Balkans." Page 150
Overall, just like the rise of the Taliban and radical Islam in modern day southern Thailand and Pakistan, it is the role of the Islamic madrasas which must be eliminated and not merely contained. The role of Islamic charities must also be tackled because many are a gateway to spreading radical Islam and if this "gateway" is not stopped and challenged, then alongside religious Islamic educational institutions which are sponsored by Saudi nationals and others; then the spread of radical Islam will not be defeated.
The wars in the former Yugoslavia were very different to the mass media versions. After all, Alija Izetbegovic stated his dream of an Islamic state and fellow pan-Islamists did not care about Bosnia but they did care about the creation of an Islamic state and in time an Islamic Caliphate.
Turning back to a quote from the book by Vojin Joksimovich on Page 161"Bosnia must become a Muslim state eventually, for if that did not happen, then the whole war would be senseless and would have been fought for nothing – concluded in 1994 Elfatih Ali Hasanejin (Elfatih Hassanein)."
This statement is what Alija Izetbegovic believed in and fellow Islamists like Elfatih Hassanein and Osama Bin Laden shared the same agenda. The battlefield may be silent now however for Islamists it is only just starting and now it is the turn for other networks to Islamize Bosnia and the Balkans.

How do I designate my RRSP/PRPP contributions as repayment of my Lifelong Learning Plan (LLP)?
How do I remove LLP repayment from my filing? I have not yet reached the required payment date yet according to CRA.
Can I use a portion of the contribution I made to a spousal RRSP, towards repayment of my personal LLP?
"The amount entered as a repayment for Home Buyers' Plan or Lifelong Learning Plan cannot be more than the total eligible PRPP contributions."
I owe $4000 on my LLP, the minimum repayment is $1333. I purchased a $4000 RRSP and would like to repay the full $4000 of my LLP. What line should this show up on?
when I put my contribution amount for my home buyers plan, turbo tax says that I have exceeded my rrsp limit. What can I do to fix this?

Speed Dating: Part 1 (2022) Short Film Review
Explosive!
Speed Dating is a fun action comedy with nicely choreographed fight scenes, a likeable lead and with a potential feature length film in the works I loo forward to seeing what Jean-Paul Ly does next.
Plot: An antisocial secret agent, unwillingly participates in a Speed Dating event, but soon realises: there are no off days in their line of work.
Review: Jean-Paul Ly writes, directs and choreographs this hugely entertaining short action comedy about an evening of speed dating gone horribly wrong inspired by the likes of FLEABAG, PRETTY WOMAN and JOHN WICK. It's a strange mixture and yet somehow it works.
When asked what inspired this story Ly states "I was intrigued to see what the life of a secret agent would be in their down time. They remain human beings after all, which is a side that's rarely seen in movies. The idea to mask an action film behind the start of a romcom was interesting."
At 13 minutes Speed Dating manages to fit in plenty of laughs, nicely choreographed action scenes and an appealing protagonist in Emma (Eloise Lovell Anderson), a girl trying to find a man but doesn't have the best luck.
When a group of thugs show up looking for a spy known as the Silver Fox, Emma is forced to fight her way out. It's a perfectly told story with solid performances and the only downside is that Jean-Paul Ly doesn't make an appearance but considering he was doing so much behind the scenes it's no surprise.
This is essentially a proof of concept with Ly currently working on a feature length story which I'm looking forward to seeing.
Overall, Speed Dating delivers the action goods as well as the laughs with an appealing lead making it well worth checking out. Speed Dating will be online from tomorrow, Saturday December 10th.

Johann Kaspar Schiller (* 27. Oktober 1723 in Bittenfeld; † 7. September 1796 auf dem Schloss Solitude bei Gerlingen (Württemberg), begraben 9. September 1796 an der Petruskirche in Gerlingen) war Offizier und Hofgärtner des Herzogs von Württemberg. Er ist der Vater Friedrich Schillers.

Leben

Johann Kaspar Schiller war der Sohn des Schultheißen Johannes Schiller (* 1682), dessen Vorfahren vorwiegend Weingärtner und Handwerker im Remstal waren, und dessen Ehefrau Eva Margarete Schiller, geborene Schatz (* 1690). Er erhielt zunächst bis 1734 Unterricht in Latein durch einen Hauslehrer. Nach vierjähriger Feldarbeit ging er 1738 in die Lehre als Barbier und Wundarzt in Denkendorf und Backnang.

Während seiner Wanderschaft 1741 kam er unter anderem nach Lindau am Bodensee sowie nach Nördlingen. 1745 wurde er Soldat und Feldscher bei verschiedenen Truppenteilen und Staaten. 1749 erhielt er in Marbach das Wundarzt-Examen und trat 1753 als Soldat in die Dienste des Herzogs Carl Eugen. Seit 1759 Leutnant, wurde er 1767 Hauptmann in Ludwigsburg, 1794 schließlich Obristwachtmeister.

Neben seinem Soldatenberuf erarbeitete Schiller in Ludwigsburg zahlreiche Verbesserungsvorschläge für die Landwirtschaft. Aufgrund seiner Interessen wurde er 1775 Leiter der herzoglichen Hofgärten auf dem nachmals, von 1858 bis 31. März 1942, zu Gerlingen und seither zu Stuttgart gehörenden Schloss Solitude.

Zudem leitete er die Forstbaumschulen des Landes. Seine Baumschule am Schloss Solitude galt im ausgehenden 18. Jahrhundert als die größte Baumschule Süddeutschlands. Von dort aus wurde auf Schillers Betreiben der Obstanbau im gesamten Herzogtum Württemberg entschieden gefördert. Viele bis heute existierenden Streuobstbestände sowohl in Gerlingen als auch im sonstigen mittleren Neckarraum gehen auf die Aktivitäten Schillers zurück. Sein umfassendes Werk Die Baumzucht im Großen galt bis weit ins 20. Jahrhundert als wichtiges Standardwerk im Obstbau. Heute gilt Schiller als Pionier der damals modernen Landwirtschaft. Zum Zeitpunkt seines Todes war Schiller Inspekteur sämtlicher herzoglicher Gärten und Baumschulen.

Schiller heiratete am Montag, den 22. September 1749, Elisabetha Dorothea Kodweiß (1732–1802), Tochter des Gastwirts und Bäckers Kodweiß, mit der er sechs Kinder hatte, darunter sein einziger Sohn Friedrich Schiller (1759–1805), der herausragende Bedeutung für die deutsche Literatur erlangte, und die bekannte älteste Tochter Elisabeth Christophine Friederike (1757–1847).

Sein Grab sowie dasjenige seiner ebenfalls 1796 – schon im Alter von 19 Jahren verstorbenen – Tochter Karoline Christiane an der Gerlinger Petruskirche ist bis heute erhalten. In Gerlingen existiert in der Kirchstraße auch ein Denkmal für die gesamte Familie Schiller.

Webinar to unpack racism and inequality amid COVID-19
07 July 2020 | Story Staff writer. Photo Pexels. Read time 2 min.
UCT's OIC will host a webinar titled "White privilege: A critical dialogue on racism and inequality in the time of COVID-19".
The Office for Inclusivity and Change (OIC) at the University of Cape Town (UCT) will host a live webinar themed "White privilege: A critical dialogue on racism and inequality in the time of COVID-19" and invites all members of the campus community to attend.
Hosted in partnership with the Social Justice Agency, the event will shine a spotlight on "structural racism and inequality", which have been amplified in South Africa and internationally during the COVID-19 pandemic.
Panellists participating in the discussion include Dr Robin DiAngelo and Dr Wilhelm Verwoerd (Stellenbosch University) and Dr Mandisa Haarhoff (UCT). The trio will unpack the definition of white privilege and engage in constructive, critical conversations on the topic to help drive "racial justice in our communities". The session will be moderated by Stanley Henkeman, executive director of the Institute for Justice and Reconciliation.
The webinar will take place on Thursday, 30 July, at 18:30 and will also act as a fundraiser for UCT's COVID-19 Emergency Fund.
