The description of Islam as anti-American has nothing to do with the Muslim date of arrival.

Instead it refers to Islam’s theocratic erosion of the line between mosque and state, its theological doctrines of violence against non-Muslims and women, as well as the belief of a succession of killers crying “Allahu Akbar” that they can achieve a paradise full of virgins by killing Americans.

Your Say

The Iranian Ambassador to the UN said to a Marine General that, “My son watches this show called ‘Star Trek’ and in it there is… Kirk who is Canadian, Chekhov who is Russian, Scotty who is a Scot, Uhura who is black, and Sulu who is Japanese, but there are NO
Muslims.
My son is very upset and doesn’t understand why there aren’t any Muslims on ‘Star Trek’.

“The General leaned toward the Iranian Ambassador and whispered in his ear, “That’s because it takes place in the future.”

So much for arrival dates.

Spengler, who is my Master in the art of cultural analysis, has a very important post today at PJ Media. Read the following to get a taste, but click the link and RTWT.

"Jihad and Self-Sacrifice in Islam" By Spengler (David P. Goldman) 0n February 16th, 2015:

"Comparative religion is not a statistical exercise: it is meaningless to tally up the victims of Crusaders and compare them to the victims of Islam and quibble about which religion is more violent. Religious war of conquest, that is, jihad, has the same role in Islam that the Lord’s Supper has in Christianity. Christianity (and Judaism) have exercised violence in the past but never sacralized violence. That is unique to Islam among the self-styled Mosaic religions."

"It is important to get the theology right–not so much to understand the depredations of radical Islam, which hardly are obscure, but to understand what makes the West different. Violence is incidental to Judaism and Christianity and fundamental to Islam."

"There is no Grace in Islam, no miracle, no expiatory sacrifice, no expression of love for mankind such that each Muslim need not be a sacrifice. On the contrary, the concept of jihad, in which the congregation of Islam is also the army, states that every single Muslim must sacrifice himself personally. Jihad is the precise equivalent of the Lord’s Supper in Christianity and the Jewish Sabbath, the defining expression of sacrifice that opens the prospect of eternity to the mortal believer. To ask Islam to become moderate, to reform, to become a peaceful religion of personal conscience is the precise equivalent of asking Catholics to abolish Mass."
