Weekly Think Piece ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Fighting Back - The Resistance Is Growing
Several
times over the last couple of months, I have received emails praising the works
of the anti-jihadist bloggers. But in the emails and blog comments there is
also the sense of frustration that something must be done about the Islamist
threat and not just talk about it.
It's been almost 10 years since 9-11 and as time passes on, its memory diminished
while the colophony of appeasing and apologist voices has increased. To many
this seems like a retreat from the lessons learned by 9-11 and the defeatists
and appeasers in our political leadership, mains stream media and institutions
seem to be ruling the day. "Where is the resistance by the general public?"
"Why haven't we learned the lessons of 9-11?" "Where is the progress in
confronting the Islamo-fascist ideology?" "Why isn't the obvious threat seen and
reported by the main stream media?" "Where is the leadership?"
"It's been ten years? Where's the progress against those who seek to rob us of our
freedoms and kill us if we don't submit?"
There is reason - and now there's a growing organizational resistance.
First the reason. Before 9-11 there was very little awareness or even and
understanding of Islam by non-Muslims. I know myself and just about every
anti-jihadist blogger out there today had to teach themselves about the nature
of Islam and how it has became a threat to the civilized world. We had to go
from almost complete ignorance - previously blinded by apologist books,
articles, speakers and organizations on Islam and political leaders who assured
us that Islam was a religion of peace - to teaching what we have learned about
the true nature of Islam and it propensity for radicalism to those in the
bloggospher that would listen.
Going
from ignorance to understanding to activists to teachers in 6 years is no small
task while at the same time fighting those who would support the Islamist
agenda with disinformation while nurturing the useful idiots who would
apologize and appease for the Islamists in the name of political correctness
and multiculturalism.
When
I become frustrated with the slow pace, I have to tell myself that the growth
of resistance takes time. The good news is that the organizational resistance,
not just the personal kind, is growing. Here are just some of the growing
resistance movements that have come online over the last 6 months or so.
The Society
of Americans for National Existence or SANE
The Society of Americans for National Existence or
SANE is what its name declares: a society of sane Americans dedicated to
preserving and strengthening America's
national existence. By national existence we mean what you normally mean when
speaking of such matters. America
is a unique people bound together through a commitment to America's Judeo-Christian moral foundation and
to an enduring faith and trust in G-d and in His Providence.
Roundup
Of Western Government-Enforced Dhimmitude
This is a categorized roundup of domestic and international acts of
"official" dhimmitude --- submission by governments, and the agencies
and institutions they control, to the intimidation and demands of radical
Islamists (most often disguised as "civil rights" activists) --- that
isn't available anywhere else.
From
"official" acts that enable militant Islamism, to ostracizing or
prosecuting anyone who criticizes or opposes it, to whitewashing the reality of
it, to looking the other way when one's culture is being progressively
balkanized and subverted by it, this blogpost links you to information that is
vital to understanding the true depth and breadth of this phenomenon, both here
in the U.S. and elsewhere.
The Center for Vigilant Freedom
There mission is to protect liberty, counter sharia laws that oppose human
rights, and defeat terrorist and extremist ideologies.
Non-partisan,
non-discriminatory, and open to all who are ready to join with their fellow
citizens in the mutual defense of human rights and constitutional liberties.
Our members encompass many religious beliefs, including Islam, Christianity,
Judaism, Hinduism, apostates, agnostics and atheists, all races, ages and
genders, at least 21 nationalities, and a wide range of opinion on political
and social issues. Our members include many bloggers and journalists, private
investigators, lawyers, leaders of coalition groups, veterans, professional
online researchers, translators of Arabic, Farsi and many other languages,
professionals in a wide variety of technological fields, teachers, scholars,
documentary producers, health professionals, local police, musicians, business
executives, homemakers, artists - ordinary people who are joining together to
protect our laws, our democracies and our freedoms from radical Islamist
ideologies.
SIOE - Stop the Islamisation of Europe
Stop Islamisation Of Europe (SIOE) is an alliance of people across Europe
with the single aim of preventing Islam becoming a dominant political force in Europe.
It
originated with the joining of Stop Islamificering Af Danmark (SIAD), a
political party dedicated to stopping the Islamisation in Denmark, with a loose
association of people in England, whose rallying cry is "No Sharia Here", who
want to maintain English law and want to stop the creeping growth of sharia law
in England. SIOE is growing in Europe with the
amalgamation of similarly minded groups.
Finally,
there are organizations created by Muslims themselves to combat Islamism and
their objectives.
American Islamic Forum for Democracy (AIFD)
American Islamic Forum for Democracy (AIFD) was formed in March of 2003 by a
group of Muslim professionals in the Phoenix
Valley of Arizona. The group's founder is M. Zuhdi
Jasser, M.D. He felt that AIFD could formally articulate the fact that in
commentary and scholarship that many Muslims believe that they are able to
practice their faith more freely and more Islamically (in a personal and
secular fashion which is most suited to preserve one's faith) in America than
in any other place in the world.
AIFD
seeks to make a small contribution to the body of thought which articulates an
understanding of Islam which separates religion and state and is in complete
harmony with the U.S.
Constitution and our citizenship pledge. Through these founding principles of
constitutional, secular (religious freedom free of theocracy and government
coercion, and Islamic hegemony), AIFD would also serve as an example of an
American Islamic institution which can be a leading voice for liberty-minded
Muslims in America in the war on terror.
We
should all watch and support personally and in our blogs these organizations.
Viva la resistance!
