The Islamist and Left alliance must fracture!

Moses Lewis | 19.10.2005 01:07 | Gender

The vocal "Left" has supported any claims from "Asylum Seekers" and local Islamist activists, but time has come for reality check.



Social Left Activists MUST realize that the Islamist's goals are TOTALLY opposite to their own, and that uncritical oppertunistic "tolerance" must eventually change to a more realistic and safe "intolerance".

The days of the joint demonstrations of the Muslim Islamist's hand-in-hand with Australian Trade Unionists, Communists, Socialists, Greens, Gays and Migrant radicals in the streets of Adelaide, Melbourne or in Sydney must become history.

No matter how well-meaning "Multiculturalist's" may tie themselves in mental knots over the issue, ancient Islam and modern social progress just can live together because they are irrevocably incompatible.

Muslim dogma opposes all modern feminists’ ideals and excludes women in general. Just watch the Olympic athletes march by from different countries or any busy street where Muslims congregate.

Polygamy, which is illegal in Australia, is quite commonly tolerated, practiced, subsidized in a number of countries, even in France with millions of Muslims! Then there is the abhorrent practice of genital mutilation of girls that affects millions across Islamic countries.

Maybe not an official Muslim practice, but many prominent Imams and Mullahs support female genital mutilation for reasons of "containing the sexual animal in women". Official or not, you will not spot a really prominent Imam or Mullah holding the Koran and loudly condemning the practices in "Gods Arabic" under the roof of a mosque!

Finally there is the general (and theologically correct) Muslim Koranic denial of the most basic human rights for women. This is vehemently denied by loud Muslim men, but you only need to shut your ears and open your eyes wide to have "True Islam" revealed! Almost all current wars and conflicts involve at least one Islamic partner! Then consider polygamy, genital mutilation, anti-abortion and grotesque domestic violence practises, honour killings and the grotesque Burqua-body-sack together and Muslim Islam must drive sincere feminists frantic with rage.

It is such repulsive combination that it prompts all modern women (and all decent men for that matter) to question the wisdom of accepting Muslim Islam as just another "religion" to be respected and tolerated in our midst. Must we really tolerate authoritarian ideologies opposed to democracy and liberalism just because they pass themselves off as another "religion"? Makes no sense at all!

How relevant would Islamist's Terrorists be today without the quiet support from legions of "Moderate Muslims" now living inside the wealthy Western world? Just a handful Nazis were convicted after WW2, so why not tolerate, even embrace individual Nazis, Fascists, Khmer Rouge etc. as long as they manage to pass themselves off as a "Moderate Nazis", "Moderate Fascists" and "Moderate Khmer Rouge" etc.", or must we reject them all as being too risky for a healthy and sane future?

Take a good look at a world-wide organisation like the "Hells Angels". Ask yourself why they, despite their "look" are actually harmless and almost a comical curiosity? The answer is because there are no "Moderate Hells Angels" that can provide the all important ongoing and non-flinching base support. Yes, Al Quida is different, not just because Osama has become the 2nd most popular baby-boy name in liberated Muslim Kuwait but because Al Quida and other radical Islamist's have support from legions of "Moderate Muslims" now living inside the wealthy Western world? !

Muslim colonialisation of Australia is a clear case of "tolerance" gone bonkers and becoming intolerable, and it is a double whammy.

On the one hand, Muslim organisations in Australia claim that, in the name of Australian "tolerance" and "multiculturalism," they MUST have a right to live by their own Koranic rules ("Sharia-law") which is deadly intolerant (to non-Muslims), preaches medieval Arabic law and morals and declare that Muslims have a total cultural superiority over all other "Kuffar" people ie. us!

On the other hand, the Left of politics, (of which feminism in Europe and in Australia is one of the strongest pillars) believes in removing religious doctrines, promote indiscriminate equality between sexes including gays, bisexuals, etc.

Feminist and all thinking constituencies will soon scream out and prove that they are still more numerous at the ballot box than those immigrant Muslims who refuses or cannot adapt to our ways.

It remains a much of a mystery why the vast majority of modern Australian people are sitting on their hands too afraid to stand up for the hard-won privileges we take for granted!

Let's at least start by becoming totally aware of the brutal realities that will confront us as more and more Muslim migrants enter out neighbourhoods and unpacks their often bizarre "luggage". Year after year it may be easy to remove thousands of Muslims from hopeless inhumane Islamic alien states, but we must not be naïve and think that we will be able to remove inhumane and hopelessly alien Islamic traditions from one single Muslim settled in Australia!
