Diana West on tolerating the intolerant
If there's any doubt in anyone's mind about the appropriateness of the Ground Zero mosque, there should not be after reading this column by Diana West. Once again, Diana West has spent many years in the ME and knows the Islamic faith and its practitioners like very few people do. She reveals in this piece that Rauf, the state department's spokesperson to the Muslim countries around the world, was a signatory to the "Amman Message"(along with 500 other leading lights in the Muslim world) which says that as long as a muslim belongs to an accredited sect he could not be an apostate, denied access to Muslim salvation, etc. Which means that Osams Bin Laden is an acceptable member of the Muslim umma. How sweet. This is a devastating indictment of this belief system, a totally intolerant system that extends tolerance to no one except Muslims. Great. And we're reaching out to these people??? Go Bloomberg.

As soon as they move into Dar al-Harb (the lands of the infidel) in any numbers, Muslims think they have a God-given right to dominate public space and intimidate the infidels into submission.
ReplyDeleteMosques are of course notorious examples of this ( see Mosque Blight - http://crombouke.blogspot.com/2010/01/mosque-blight.html ) but their swaggering, aggressive arrogance and sense of preferential entitlement make them obnoxious to the kuffar inhabitants in many other ways.
The notorious Ground Zero Victory Mosque is just the latest example of a process that has been going on for years in Europe, and centuries in lands conquered by Islam: http://crombouke.blogspot.com/2010/01/muslim-domination-of-public-space.html
