Resisting Islam

By Sha’i ben-Tekoa 

What follows is drawn from a piece that ran on Israpundit on February 13. Added at the end are some fresh words on how to deal with the menace of Islam invading liberal democracies.

First, there was the disconcerting news of a Muslim-only community being built in East Plano, Texas, and then Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton announced his office had launched a formal investigation into a similar project for a sharia compliant city for 20,000 foreign nationals in rural Kaufman County, backed with Saudi money.

 I have no problem with religious people wanting to live in such a monochromatic community. The Satmar Jews in Brooklyn and Kiryas Yoel in Orange County north of New York City do that. In the name of equal treatment under the law, I have no problem with these projects of building all-Muslim communities.

 However, I do have a problem with one peculiar practice of their culture, their polygamy, and these Muslim development projects need to be judged in light of American history in the matter of their Stone Age sex lives.

 The Church of the Latter-Day Saints, a.k.a. the Mormons, was founded by Joseph Smith in upstate New York in the 1830s who misused the Jewish Bible and ignored Jewish wisdom in order to justify polygamy in the new faith, when Judaism banned polygamy a thousand years in the past.

 And for the Latter-Day Saints’ polygamy, the new community was shunned and worse, sometimes driven violently from one town to another until they fled to the far West and settled near a great salt lake even before the Utah territory was legally demarcated by Congress.

 And when the Mormons there reached the minimum number of people in a territory making it eligible for statehood, per Thomas Jefferson’s plan for absorbing new land into the United States, they petitioned Congress but were rejected as unfit for membership in the Union because of their polygamy.

 Over the succeeding Biblical generation of forty years, the Mormons repeatedly petitioned Congress to turn the Utah Territory into a full-fledged state and were repeatedly denied.

 Finally, in 1890, the Church deleted polygamy from its way of life and in 1896 Utah joined the Union as a full-fledged state.

 Today, under a threat by Muslims who hate Americans for supporting the Jews in their independent state, whose existence is an insult to Islam – Americans need a new, socio-political movement to outlaw Islam for its polygamy. A “Sense of the Senate” resolution defining Islam as an alien and hostile ideology in a class with Communism and Nazism might a place to start. 

 There are now more than 3,000 mosques in the U.S. and patriotic citizens in neighborhoods with a mosque should be encouraged to file a complaint with the proper authorities asking for a court order to be served by a marshal or a sheriff to the mosque ordering it closed and padlocked, like a brothel or “crack house” for fostering polygamy which is illegal in every state.

 Concerned citizens also need to pressure their congressmen to close the door to Muslim immigration. During the Cold War, the State Department did not answer favorably requests for visas from people in Communist states, and no less during World War II, any German or Japanese national wanting to visit the U.S. would have been denied entry. Shutting down immigration from Muslim states should be approved as a legitimate, time-honored policy toward a hostile power.

 Islam must be recognized as an enemy of the American way of life, like Communism and Nazism, all three totalitarian systems, all fueled by an hysterical hatred of Jews.

 The cliché is that Islam is like Judaism and Christianity, an Abrahamic religion too, when that is demonstrably false. Abraham was chosen as G-d’s missionary to mankind for his kindness, and no honest person today would describe the behavior of Muslims on either 9-11 or October 7 or in any one of their thousands of terrorist atrocities, as kind.

 The Torah records Abraham yearning for a son all his life and finally having one at age 86, though Ishmael, as prophesied, turned out to be a “wild ass of a man” who in character took after his mother’s Hamitic people and not Abraham and Sarah’s descent from Ham’s brother, Shem.

 Indeed, when Ishmael was sixteen years old, Abraham chose to expel him not only from his family and community of hundreds of disciples but the country.

 Surely, the greatest authority on what is and what is not Abrahamic was Abraham himself who was advised by G-d to listen to his wife who feared, after aged Abraham’s passing, Ishmael would be capable of murdering their son Isaac, to steal the Patriarch’s material wealth and spiritual legacy.

 No, Islam is not the religion of Abraham as the Muslims falsely claim, proven false with every act of cruelty they commit.

 On 10 February, in a London High School classroom, a 13-year-old boy whipped out a knife and stabbed two other boys about the same age, grievously wounding them, while shouting “Allahu Akbar!” before running away until captured by the police who told the media, “This may have been an Islamist terror attack.”

 Just “may have been”?

 The British media reported that authorities had not yet officially cited the motive pending an investigation, but what is there to investigate? Senior police officer Luke Williams said investigators were “keeping an open mind about the motive” — which detail in this news item speaks volumes.

 A Muslim with a knife shouting “Allahu Akbar!” and stabbing people at random is an old story in Israel. What is revealing here is the British response incapable of speaking the truth and identifying the ideology that fosters such wanton, evil aggression.

Britain has been plagued for years by Muslims armed with knives who use them on the populace, who in the stabber’s eyes are infidels refusing to convert to the One True Faith. Three years ago, Mayor of London Sadiq Kahn pledged to install metal detectors at the entrance to schools but never did.

 Two years ago, in Southport, a town northwest of Manchester, three little girls in a dance workshop, ages 6, 7, and 9 were slain by one Axel Rudakubana, who owned an al-Qaida training manual.

 That British police these days are behaving this way is a clear symptom of dhimmitude, namely, submitting to the menace of Islam.  Here is their inability to get angry and even express hatred for this community destroying civil life in Britain.

 The police, like the BBC, have been cowed into paralysis when it comes to speaking out against Muslims. This senior police officer would better serve the people who pay him his salary by expressing his anger and horror at the behavior of a human being shouting “Allahu Akbar!” and stabbing innocent people at random. One report said one of the boys in that high school was stabbed in the neck, which should not surprise, and here is why:

 Muslims believe that the Jews stole the famous story of the binding by “Ibrahim” of his son “Isma’il” from Islam. Their lying Torah teaches the son bound was “Eeshkhok” (Isaac).

 Indeed, so central is this plagiarized episode to Islam, one of its five commandments is the obligation once in a lifetime of a Believer to make the pilgrimage to Mecca to the spot where “Ibrahim” bound his son “Isma’il” for a sacrifice.

 The episode is also recalled annually during Eid al-Adha, the “Feast of the Sacrifice.” It is one of the few holidays in Islam, during which Believers slit the throats of millions of animals, with fathers using the day to teach their sons how to do that. In recent IDF operations in Gaza, soldiers came across manuals for the kidnappers of October 7 with instructions how to best to kill a Jewish captive by slitting his throat.

 The West has got to be honest about Islam; sadly, the Brits have become a sorry example. When those three girls were murdered in Southport, the prosecutors did not charge the assassin with perpetrating a “terrorist attack.” The prosecutors said they found no evidence of terrorism, though the court did give him life in prison, which punishment is another wretched example of the West losing its spiritual ability to put murderers to death, a civilizational loss of nerve that Israel is afflicted with too.

 Islam is a unique entity very different from communities in the Judeo-Christian West, including the Japanese and South Koreans. It is an empire no less than any in history, only it conquers other lands and peoples without an army or via economic domination. Its method of conquest is called hijra, which is the word Islam uses to mark the birth of Islam, the flight from Mecca by Muhammed ibn Abdullah ibn Abdul Muttalib from his enemies, his second cousins, to Yathrib, dominated by Jewish tribes whom he and devotees massacred. Later, Yathrib was renamed Medina and is considered the second holiest city after Mecca. In medieval Spain, Rabbi Avraham ben Meir ibn Ezra (1092-1167) described the Arabic language as the bad Hebrew of nomadic illiterates (which makes sense as descendants of Ishmael who after his expulsion chose to live in a desert). Indeed the word hijra derives from a Hebrew verb meaning to go out as in to be an exception; in Hebrew something kharig.

 Muhammad’s flight from Mecca is seen as the first expansion of the Believers in the One True Faith beyond Mecca and a model for the future of Islam by Believers who move as innocent individuals into other cultures where, thanks to their polygamy, they reproduce in great numbers. This is how they are conquering western Europe.

 There are now between three and four thousand mosques in the United States and each one deserves to be charged with the illegal activity of fostering polygamy. It would be strategically ill-advised to try to outlaw Islam given the American tradition of freedom of religion; any effort in that direction would become the target of charges of Islamophobia – a wickedly dishonest neologism. Freud chose the Greek work phobia to label baseless fears, and there is nothing baseless about fearing the religionists of 9-11 and October 7 and their tens of thousands of atrocious horrors over the last century.

Instead, think of Al Capone: He was sent to prison not for murder and bootlegging but tax evasion. Some targets you don’t attack frontally but indirectly. What is required are civic activists in communities with a mosque to file a complaint with the police that this building is engaged in an illegal activity, like a house of ill repute or “crack house,” and should be served with a court order by a sheriff or marshal and padlocked.

 Official America must not be shy about publicly regarding Islam as an evil ideology in a class with Nazism and Communism.
