(Paris) It appears
that those people who find fault in anything and everything, have found their
cause of the week. 'Charlie Hebdo' the French satirical magazine which was thescene of a murderous Islamic gun attack in January 2015 has been lambasted by the
ethical latte brigade for suggesting in an editorial How Did We End Up Here?, Published eight days
after attacks at Brussels’ airport and metro system killed more than 30 people.
It said a fear of being seen as Islamophobic had inhibited the public from
questioning or objecting to facets of Islam. The editorial began by listing
several mooted explanations for the Brussels attacks, including police
incompetence, youth unemployment, immigration and growing Islamism. But, it
went on: “In reality, the attacks … are the last phase of a process of cowing
and silencing long in motion and on the widest possible scale.” It singled out
the recent appearance at Sciences Po, the elite Paris Institute of Political
Studies, of the Islamic scholar Tariq Ramadan. “His task, under cover of
debate, is to dissuade people from criticising his religion in any way. The
political science students who listened to him last week will, once they have
become journalists or local officials, not even dare to neither write nor say
anything negative about Islam.”
Of course faster than you can say “Is the Pope a Catholic?”
Faux outrage has raised its head. Idiots who continue to try and spread the message
that ‘Islam is a religion of Peace’ have tried to compare the situation in
Europe with what happened to the Jews during the 1930. (The last I looked Jews weren't
going around attacking airports, bus stations and murdering people in their
hundreds (Europe that is) over a cartoon or even against fascists)
The thing is, when was the last time you saw a huge Islamic
march down the middle of any city in the Western world where they protested against
the idiots in their midst? Hundreds of
protests against the US,UK or Israel, protests against banning the hijab,
arresting a terrorist , or even a cartoon. But any protests against FGM, honour
killing or these murderous gun attacks .NO. That tells me all I need to know
about peaceful Islam and how, until they do start openly condemning the religious
bigotry written into the DNA of Islam , then the vast majority of Muslims are
complicit in the ugliness that Islam has brought to Europe. But what is worse and which the article points out, is how any form of discussion of Islam is silenced as been...Islamophobic.
