Muslim Supremacists Promote Intolerance




[From article]
Islamic doctrine – which teaches that Muslims are superior to non-Muslims, who are further compared to dogs and cattle – imbues Muslims with this sense of supremacy over the rest of mankind. And a good portion of Islamic history – when Muslims were for centuries on the warpath, subjugating large swathes of the Old Word – further enforced it.
This Islamic supremacism was dramatically humbled after European powers defeated and colonized much of the Muslim world.
[. . .]
Today, however, as Western peoples willingly capitulate to Islamic mores – in the name of tolerance, multiculturalism, political correctness, or just plain cowardice – Muslims are becoming more emboldened, making more demands and threats, as they realize they need not militarily defeat the West in order to resuscitate their supremacist birthright. (More appeasement from the bullied always brings about more demands from the bully.)
To understand all this, one need only look to Muslim behavior where it is dominant and not in need of pretense – that is, in the Muslim world. There, non-Muslim minorities are habitually treated as inferiors. But unlike the many Western appeasers who willingly accept a subservient role to Islam, these religious minorities have no choice in the matter.
[. . .]
The Conditions of Omar, a foundational medieval Muslim text dealing with how subjugated “infidels” must behave, spells out their inferiority vis-à-vis Muslims. Among other stipulations, it commands conquered Christians not to raise their “voices during prayer or readings in churches anywhere near Muslims” (hence the axe attack in Pakistan). It also commands them not to display any signs of Christianity – specifically Bibles and crosses – not to build churches, and not to criticize the prophet.
[. . .]
So the next time you hear that Muslim rage and terrorism are products of grievance – from cartoons to territorial disputes and everything in between – remember that this is absolutely true. But these “grievances” are not predicated on any human standards of equality or justice – only a supremacist worldview.
