Why Islam is Worse Than Nazism I am an atheist author and poet, who had lived as a Sunni Muslim for 23 years from birth, and I am still living in a Muslim country, Turkey. Also, my parents and all of my relatives are still Muslim. So, my critics about Islam can be easily consider this an inside view. I know that the title of this essay seems assertive, but I will explain the rightness of this title step-by-step in this essay. First of all, you have to learn about Islam that if you are an “outsider”, a non-Muslim, for example, a Christian, an atheist, a Buddhist, a Jew or whatever else, all Muslims have the “right” of killing and raping you, grabbing all your properties, your country, land, money and anything else. They take this “right” from the book of their belief, the Quran. In other words, they take this “right” from their belief’s core, the theology of Islam. Here are some examples of this in verses from Quran. This verse of Quran is about “all non-Muslims”, all “heretics”! — Christians, Buddhists, atheists, Jews, etc. — describing them “who wage war against Allah and His Messenger (Muhammad)” Surat Al-Ma’idah (5.33) http://quran.com/5/33 “Indeed, the penalty for those who wage war against Allah and His Messenger and strive upon earth [to cause] corruption is none but that they be killed or crucified or that their hands and feet be cut off from opposite sides or that they be exiled from the land. That is for them a disgrace in this world; and for them in the Hereafter is a great punishment.” And this verse of the Quran is about the order to kill the humans who left Islam, the apostates: Surat An-Nisa’ (4.89) http://quran.com/4/89
“They wish you would disbelieve as they disbelieved so you would be alike. So do not take from among them allies until they emigrate for the cause of Allah. But if they turn away, then seize them and kill them wherever you find them and take not from among them any ally or helper.” Look at the current situation in Syria. How can Islamist terrorists slaughter Alawite people or rape Christian women so easily? Because they take this “right” from their belief and they believe that they will go to the heaven because of these vandalistic actions against “outsiders”, who are out of Islam, who don’t believe the same religious tenets — in other words, those who are the “heretics” according to their belief. Some Muslims say, “But they are not the real Muslims.” That is a big lie; that is the exact form of real Islam, because these vandalistic actions are in accord with the orders of Quran. You have heard many times that “Islam is a tolerant religion”. That is the biggest lie that you can hear all over the World, and this lie is used as a mask to hide the terrible face of Islam. There is NO difference between Islam and Islamism. This is the main error that the modern world make about Islam. There are not different forms as Islam and Islamism, they are the same thing, and they have the same content. This separation is just only an illusion, and it is used by Muslims to hide the brutal, hateful, oppressive,murderous, genocidal face of Islam. Islamic theology is based on the verses of the Quran and Hadith. Hadiths are the words and actions of the Islamic prophet Muhammad, and all Muslims must follow these words and actions in addition to the orders of Quran. For example, you have to defecate as Muhammad did, and you have to clean yourself as he did, or you can rape and enslave a “heretic” woman in a war as a sex slave as Muhammad did, or you can torture your enemy in a war to learn the place of his hidden money, as Muhammad did. You “must” cut the hand of a thief as Muhammad did, not give him any prison sentence as do the modern laws. You must stone a woman to death as Muhammad did, because she had sex outside of the rules of Islam (but you must only whip her partner a hundred times). If you are a Muslim, you can never set them free while considering that their sexual actions are about their own personal relations and freedom, in accord with modern laws. You must definitely apply the punishments of Muhammad such as stoning the woman to the death and whipping her partner a hundred times if you want to be a good Muslim. You must kill the man who left the belief of Islam, as Muhammad did. You can’t say “This is his own choice and he has the freedom of thought and belief”, because it is an order of the Quran that you “must” kill the persons who were Muslim before and then left the Islamic religion.
You must kill all homosexuals according to the orders of Islam. No Muslims can say according to Islam that their sexual orientation is their own natural right, in accord with the human rights norms of our age. You have the “right” to marry a little girl at 9 years old, as Muhammad did. In other words, you can rape a little child legally in Islam and make her a sex slave, and also a domestic slave till the end of her life. You can lie alongside of your dead wife for 6 hours, as Muhammad did. In other words, you can rape the dead body of your wife for 6 hours after her death. Here is Islam…Here is the “tolerant religion”…Here is the right way to the heaven…Here are the orders of Allah…Here are the actions of Muhammad… You can easily see how civilized the Muslim countries of the world are because of Islam, such as Afghanistan, Nigeria, Turkey, Iran, Sudan and the others. You can see how much they have contributed to the history of philosophy, the history of art, and the history of science of the whole world. You can see how respectful they are to human rights, women’s rights, children’s rights, the freedom of expression and thought, the freedom of the press, the freedom of belief, etc. The first genocide wave of 20th century, the Armenian Genocide, the Assyrian Genocide and the Pontic Greek Genocide, was perpetrated by Turkish and Kurdish people of the Ottoman Empire and the new Turkish Republic, getting motivation from the “rights” that they had because of Islam: the “rights” of killing and raping the non-Muslims, enslaving their women and little girls as sex slaves and also domestic slaves, and grabbing their money, houses and lands. However, “The Committee of Union and Progress” (CUP) (Turkish: İttihat ve Terakki Cemiyeti) was based on Turkish nationalism; they used Turkish and Kurdish people easily for these genocides because of the Islamic religion’s content about non-Muslims. All the Turkish and Kurdish Muslims believed that they would go to the heaven if they killed more non-Muslims, as do today’s Islamist terrorists. The owners of the second genocide wave of 20th century were Nazis, as you know. They took the genocides of the Turks as a sample. It is know that Adolf Hitler said to his military commanders,“Who, after all, speaks today of the annihilation of the Armenians?,” while they were talking about the reaction of the world about the genocides that they were planning to perpetrate. Nazism was considered a legal and respectable ideology at the beginning of the 1930s, and then the world saw how dangerous Nazism was. Millions of people died because of Nazism, and today it is illegal to support Nazism in any civilized country. You can never
make propaganda about Nazism legally. Today, Nazism is not considered as a genuine thought alternative, and it is not included in the freedom of thought and expression. As I have detailed above, Islam is against the human rights norms of our age, and it has more dangerous content than Nazism. Islam is not a belief alternative, it is just a crime against humanity, and any crime shouldn’t have freedom in our modern world. So, Islam must be declared illegal all over the world, as is Nazism, because of its vandal content and commands that are against human rights. All actions about Islam must be forbidden and the propagandists of Islam must be judged because of instigating to the crimes of murder, rape, grab and crimes against humanity. Otherwise, the world will meet with a big tragedy when the Islamists will get more power, as the world suffered because of Nazism.
Words of Satan: Islam I am an atheist, so I don’t think that there is a Satan and God, but if I am wrong, if there is a Satan, Islam must be the words of Satan, not from a “holy” God. None of the “God” conceptions of other religions in the world are as cruel as so-called religion Islam. In fact, Islam is not a religion, but a barbaric death cult full of violence, savageness, mass murder, rape, sex slavery, pedophilia, necrophilia, plunder, occupation, forcing to convert by sword, cutting the throat of the “infidels” or burning them alive. Today there is not a “religion” in the world as cruel as that barbaric death cult Islam, but shamelessly Muslims represent Islam as “religion of peace”. How can these verses of Quran can be considered from a “religion of peace”, coming from a “holy” God: Surat Al-‘Anfāl [Remember] when your Lord inspired to the angels, “I am with you, so strengthen those who have believed. I will cast terror into the hearts of those who disbelieved, so strike [them] upon the necks and strike from them every fingertip.” http://quran.com/8/12 Surat Al-Ĥaj These are two adversaries who have disputed over their Lord. But those who disbelieved will have cut out for them garments of fire. Poured upon their heads will be scalding water. http://quran.com/22/19 Surat Muĥammad So when you meet those who disbelieve [in battle], strike [their] necks until, when you have inflicted slaughter upon them, then secure their bonds, and either [confer] favor afterwards or ransom [them] until the war lays down its burdens. http://quran.com/47/4 Surat At-Tawbah
And when the sacred months have passed, then kill the polytheists wherever you find them and capture them and besiege them and sit in wait for them at every place of ambush. http://quran.com/9/5 Surat Al-Baqarah “And kill them wherever you overtake them and expel them from wherever they have expelled you, and fitnah is worse than killing.” http://quran.com/2/191 Surat At-Tawbah The Jews say, “Ezra is the son of Allah “; and the Christians say, “The Messiah is the son of Allah .” That is their statement from their mouths; they imitate the saying of those who disbelieved [before them]. May Allah destroy them; how are they deluded? http://quran.com/9/30 When you critize Islam, some people idiotically mention about The Old Testament, The inquisition and The crusaders.Yes, some orders of Islam had been taken by Muhammed and written as Quran verses (so called words of Allah) from the Old Testament like stoning to death for adultery, but today there is no Jew applying this order. This brutal application had been ended by Jesus -who was from Jew community- with a smartly tactic: “When they kept on questioning him, he straightened up and said to them, “Let any one of you who is without sin be the first to throw a stone at her.” (Matthew 5:39) http://biblehub.com/matthew/5-39.htm So, today all brutal parts of the Old Statement are out of order. Judaism had been reformed in historical process very long time ago and so did Christianity. Today there is no Christian burning any woman and blaming her to be a witch, there is no inquisition court in any part of the world. Christiany had been reformed hundreds of years ago, but so called “religion of peace”, Islam, has been never reformed. It is the only “religion” which has current applications just the same as they used to be in medieval age. That is natural because Islam cannot be reformed, because founder of this barbaric deat cult Muhammed had said many times in the book written by him called Quran as “None of the words of Quran will be changed till doomsday”, so he had guaranteed that his orders will be valid till the end of existence of his own product death cult, Islam.
It is also idiotically to mention “crusades” against today’s barbaric actions of ISIS members. First of all, “crusades” were after 400 years of the occupation of homeland of early Christians and also Jews by Muslims and was absolutely a rightful struggle to get their own homeland under occupation of members of barbaric death cult Islam. Also ISIS members are killing humans currently in 2015 same as Muslims did in 7. century. They are occupying homeland of “infidel” people of Syria and Iraq like Yezidis and Orthodox Christians of that region like Arameans, Assyrians, Nestorians, killing and raping them, making them sex slaves, but today there is no violence caused by Christians. None of the Christians cuts throats of Atheists or Muslims or burn them alive like ISIS members currently do today to all non-Muslims. None of the Jews kills Atheists, Buddhists or Christians by being a suicide bomber. None of the Buddhists makes Christians or Muslims sex slaves. Even people calling themselves “Satanists” don’t kill so much human all over the world as Muslims kill. Look at the Bangladesh, many bloggers criticising Islam have been killed brutally by being craved just because of being secular and writing articles criticising Islam a few moths ago. In Saudi Arabia, secular blogger Raif Badawi has been whipped by the government and put in jail for 10 years just because of being a secular and freethinking human and criticising Islam, and he is still in jail, because Islam has no respect for human rights, freedom of expression and also no respect to women’s rights, chidren’s rights, LGBTI persons rights. As you know Quran verses and hadiths order to kill all homosexuals, transsexuals and trannies and according to this command of Islam, ISIS members have brutally killed many LBGTI persons by throwing from the top of high buildings. Women in Saudi Arabia have just got their right to vote 2015, in fact which is an ordinary human right in all civilized countries of the world and still it is forbidden for women in Saudi Arabia to drive a car. Is there any other outdated country in the world like Muslim countries? In fact, this so-called “religion”, death cult named Islam was not produced/written by Muhammed with so original ideas, but a synthesis of monotheistic religions of current Arabian Peninsula like early Christianity, Judaism and also Sabie Religion which was a very popular monotheistic religion in that age in Arabian Peninsula. (Sabians: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sabians) Muhammed had chosen only brutal parts of these ancient religions like taking “stone to death for adultery” from the Old Testament, but he had never chosen peaceful parts of Christianity. Muhammad had never take any peaceful word of Jesus as example and put in its book Quran like: “But I tell you, do not resist an evil person. If anyone slaps you on the right cheek, turn to them the other cheek also.”(Matthew 5:39) http://biblehub.com/matthew/5-39.htm or another peaceful word of Jesus against violence like “Put your sword back in its place,” Jesus said to him, “for all who draw the sword will die by the sword.” (Matthew 26:52 ) http://biblehub.com/matthew/26-52.htm
Let me emphasize, please: You can NEVER reform Islam, because all possible reforming ways had been blocked since the founding of this death cult by its founder Muhammed as saying many times “None of the words of Quran will be changed till doomsday”. So you cannot even try to reform Islam, you will be blamed as being a heretic/infidel, and according to Quran verses you have to be killed by any Muslim: Surat Al-Ma’idah (5.33) http://quran.com/5/33, also you can be killed too because of trying to reform Islam according to theQuran verses ordering to kill “apostates”: Surat An-Nisa’ (4.89) http://quran.com/4/89 So, you cannot even say “The world is round”. It is enough to be blamed as being an infidel/heretic or apostate which deserve to be killed according to the Quran written by war lord, pedophile, necrophile, lier and savage Muhammad. Acording to this ignorant, primative mentality against science, Abdul Aziz bin Abdullah bin Baz who was the Grand Mufti of Saudi Arabia (Supreme Religous of Saudi Arabia) had said “The earth is flat. Whoever claims it is round is an atheist deserving to be punished”. No matter the science had proved that the world is in fact round, no matter there are many photograps of world from space showing that is it round. The scince has no value in front of the verses of Quran written by Muhammad or “hadiths” which are the words of Muhammad that had been said to the people arround him or the “sunnah” which was about the all applications of Muhammad that is considered “holy” actions of the “biggest and last prophet of Allah” including raping the infidel women, making them sex slavery, torturing for learning the place of golds/money, abusing a girl in only 9 years old (Ayshe) as considering her a “wife” by a so-called marriage, in other words pedophilia, also necrophilia which had been done by Muhammed too on one of his wifes who was death (As you can remember, a Persian Islamist named Zemzemi Abdul Bari, had declared in 2011 that all Muslim men can make sex with their wifes after the death of them in 6 hours accordingt to the same action of Muhammad. A year later, in Egyptian Parlament, a permission, allowing to the necrophilia was discussed as declared by Zemzemi Abdul Bari referring to the same necrophile action of Muhammad and also they demanded to increase the offical marriage age of the girls to 14 years old). So, if there is a Satan, it must be Muhammad and the orders of Satan must be Islam.
Islam and the Christian genocides in Turkey
As some have said in the West, in fact, the Armenian, Assyrian, Chaldean, Nestorian and Pontian Greek genocides were “Christian genocides”. On the other side were Muslim Turks and Kurds. The basis in society and justification in conscience of these genocides were Islamic rules. Islam gives permission to all Muslims to kill and rape every nonMuslim, and also to grab all their money and properties. The de facto killers in these genocides were the predatory bands of the “Secret Organization” (In Turkish: Teşkilatı Mahsusa). The Turks and Kurds who killed their own non-Muslim neighbours, enslaved their women and little girls as sex slaves, and grabbed all their properties, had not had any awareness of “nationalism,” as did their commanders, the leaders of the Union and Progress Organization. So the Turks and Kurds who took part in the Armenian, Assyrian, Chaldean, Nestorian and Pontian Greek genocides massacred innocent humans with pleasure, had not done all this for the benefit of “Turkish nationalism”. They were simple farmers, describing themselves as “Muslim”, but not as “Turkish” or “Kurdish”. The massacre order of the Union and Progress Organization leaders was a gift for the Turks who lived on as predators for two thousand years, and only can turned to agriculture and the breeding of livestock in Anatolia. They considered it a gift because they got the chance to pillage their “rich” non-Muslim neighbours by the order of their government, and also they could take revenge upon non-Muslims who had, in their eyes, a great deal of money. Kurds, who were living in the same region for thousands of years and didn’t have ability, aptitude and historical experience except in the jobs of agriculture and the breeding of livestock, like their Turkish coreligionists, became happy too, because they would, along with the Turks, pillage the money and properties of the non-Muslims. Muslim Turks and Kurds pulled their non-Muslim neighbours to pieces with the appetite and wildness of hyenas without any mercy; moreover, they gloated over all of this. They grabbed all the houses and stores of the non-Muslims, and they enslaved the women of non-Muslims as sex slaves and also domestic slaves in their “harems” as their “booty,” as it is ordered in the rules of Islam. And they sold some of these women and girls at the slave bazaars for a bit of money. The perpetrators of this terrible period didn’t feel any self-reproach; on the contrary, they were very happy, because they became more worthy of Allah, the god of Islam. They became better Muslims with these disgusting massacres. So they came closer to the
heaven of Islam, with its many houris (group sex) and open buffet bar (rivers of kevser wines). They were in peace because they were obeying the laws of their own god, Allah, and the government. They raped tiny girls and women, slaughtered innocent humans, burned children alive, and massacred millions of non-Muslims by the order of the “peace� religion Islam. Because their Allah was very merciless to the ones who disbelieved.
Critique of the Socialists defending Islam
“The criticism of religion is the prerequisite of all critique.” Karl Marx To take sides with Islamists in the name of democracy, to support the existence of Islamic sharia is to maintain its objectives to organize, strengthen and take power which, in case it succeeds, due to its intrinsic structure, due to the theology of Islam, will take all of your freedom from you, hang, imprison and exile. Just like what happened after the “Islamic Revolution”. Islam in itself is the enemy of democracy and freedom. You can see the concrete examples in countless incidents happening everyday in Iraq, Syria, Afghanistan, Iran, Saudi Arabia, Somali and Nigeria. Never be deceived by the ignorant persons who tell you that ”It’s not what Islam really is”, because Islam is precisely that. The Islamic law sees stoning to death, homophobia, cutting off hands as punishment, pedophilia, women who have been taken prisoners as war booty being sex slaves, woman being a second rate person who solely exists to serve her husband as a commodity, necrophilia being legitimized based on Muhammad’s ”lying next to one of his wives” which implies that he raped the corpse, defending the right to have sexual intercourse within 6 hours from the moment of death based on the acts of Muhammad considered as”tradition”, to kill the ones who it labels as ”heretic”, rape their women, extort their property and land as it’s right and duty; so anyway you cut it, Islam is a crime against humanity. And crime has nothing to do with freedom. Islam, which reserves in its heart the potential for massacre, rape and the instigation of extort, must be prohibited, and its propagandists should be put on trial within the context of contradicting human rights and crimes committed against humanity. Nevertheless, there are socialists unfortunately taking sides with the Islamists in the name of democracy. Even though the position of the ”Libertarian Left” is a political structure that I agree with most of the time, which seizes upon the attitude of defending the struggle of sexual and ethnic minorities in conjunction with class struggle as a ”must be”, I tend to stay away from it to avoid the negligence of those who support the Islamists in the name of democracy. However, the analysis of both Lenin and Marx are erroneous because of the lack of proper assessment. Because; their predicating solely on Christianity in their analysis on religion, in order to develop an attitude against while defending the internationalist class struggle, is a great deficiency. In the Communist Manifesto, they adopt a particular attitude towards religion in line with their analysis solely based on the ”church”. Although Marx’s phrase ”religion is the opiate of the masses” is popular (opium was used as a medicine to cure the pain caused by diseases) the part at the beginning of the same sentence is commonly skipped. When Marx was saying, ”Religion is the sigh of the oppressed creature, the heart of a heartless world, and the soul of soulless conditions.”, he was interpreting religion only through Christian theology which
commanded ”If someone slaps you on one cheek, offer the other cheek also” and he was going into the effort of showing ”empathy” with the religion which he saw as a medicine that eased the pain of the uneducated masses, but not with Islam which had inhuman rules commanding women to be killed by being stoned to death, defending pedophilianecrophilia, seeing it as a right to kill the ones who are not Muslim; because he knew nothing about the theological essence of Islam, he never considered it necessary to make any research on the subject, while calling the proletariat in every country to be organized. Unfortunately, Marx who said ”The criticism of religion is the prerequisite of all critique.” didn’t criticize”all religion” and thereby adopted a deficient and wrong attitude towards religion. Without any doubt, those who follow Marx blindly continue to repeat the same mistakes he did. ”Religion must be declared a private affair. In these words socialists usually express their attitude towards religion. But the meaning of these words should be accurately defined to prevent any misunderstanding. We demand that religion be held a private affair so far as the state is concerned. But by no means can we consider religion a private affair so far as our Party is concerned.” says Lenin. If you talk like Lenin, observing religion through Christianity which its existence for the masses didn’t pose any threat of a ”nation of Islamic sharia” to be built within a period of struggles for reformation throughout hundreds of years and subsequently a period of development of rationality, science, art and philosophy without restraint, and without making a proper research on the theology of Islam, certainly you fall into carelessness as the atheist socialists had to have the right attitude against religion. So you say ”We demand that religion be held a private affair so far as the state is concerned.” just like Lenin, but considering religions on the face of earth doesn’t consist solely of Christianity; no socialist state, and of course no socialist has the right to fall into heedlessness like saying ”religion be held a private affair” as Islam kills, rapes, extorts the property of people who aren’t Muslim in Afghanistan, Iran, Saudi Arabia; which are the countries that haven’t passed over the ”stone age” period yet. To get back to the issue of ”Libertarian Left”… To support Islam in the name of democracy is no different from being ”the stupid steer which licks the knife of the butcher”, as you go on licking, the knife would cut your throat sooner or later… Wake up from your sleep of negligence before it’s too late…
Why We Must Ban Islam I think 3rd World War has already begun between civilization and barbaric death cult Islam. Yes, Samuel Huntington was right. How can we describe a “religion”? By its followers number? If there were “one billion” (like Muslim number all over the world) Satanism believers who support that they have right to sacrifice children because of their belief, can you say “of course, we have belief freedom”? Islam cannot be reformed, if it was possible, it must have been reformed since 1400 years. Islam cannot be reformed because of internal structure of its theology. Islam theology raised from Quran and hadiths have concrete orders about the daily life of the Muslims, for example the ratio of grab that the Muslim army will take after a war with non-muslims or the permission to enslave women and little girls as spoil of war, or how Muslims must kill homosexuals, apostates, non-muslims, or how Muslims must cut hand of a thief, how Muslims must stone to death a woman for adultery, etc.These orders of Islam having voilence, hatred, terrorism can not be interpreted on a humanistic ground. How can you reform these barbaric verses of Quran?: Quran Quran Quran Quran Quran Quran Quran Quran Quran Quran Quran Quran
2:191 “Slay the unbelievers wherever you find them.” 3:28 “Muslims must not take the infidels as friends.” 3:85 “Any religion other than Islam is not acceptable.” 5:33 “Maim and crucify the infidels if they criticise Islam.” 8:12 “Terrorize and behead those who believe in scriptures other the Quran.” 8:60 “Muslims must muster all weapons to terrorize the infidels.” 8:65 “The unbelievers are stupid; urge the Muslims to fight them.” 9:5 “When opportunity arises kill the infidels wherever you find them.” 9:30 “The Jews and Christians are perverts, fight them.” 9:123 “Make war on the infidels living in your neighborhood.” 22:19 “Punish the unbelievers with garments of fire, hooked iron rods, boiling water, melt their skin and bellies. 47:4 “Do not hanker for peace with the infidels; beahed them when you catch.”
You can find many other verses like these in Quran. How can a belief based on that kind of barbaric orders can be reformed and transformed to a humanistic structure? Christianity and Judaism had been reformed hundreds of year ago, but Islam not. Today there is no Jew in the world stoning to death women for adultery, there is no inquisition courts in Christianity, but Islam is still at medieval age. Same violence of the Arabic war lord Muhammad is still valid since 1400 years. Muslims can still rape a child at 9 years old like Muhammad did. Muslims can kill all non-muslims, attack them, invade their country, grab their properties, lands, money and rape, enslave and sell their women and little girls as Muhammad did. They are still living at medieval age, but the civilized world had already passed primative ages hundreds of years ago.
In civilized world we live according to the Universal Declaration of Human Rights . That is the base of our civilized world but Islam is very antithetic to the Universal Declaration of Human Rights. Let's have a look to some parts of the article of dear Martha van der Pol named “Islam is Antithetical to Fundemental Human Rights”¹ “Islam calls for Sharia Law to supersede Civil Laws hence Human Rights Laws are rejected by Islam. The Strasbourg-based European Court of Human Rights ruled in February 2003 that Islamic Sharia law is “incompatible with the fundamental principles of democracy.” The court said that a legal system based on Sharia law “would diverge from the European Convention on Human Rights, particularly with regard to the rules on the status of women, and its intervention in all spheres of private and public life in accordance with religious precepts.” Further, the European Court of Human Rights determined on July 31, 2001, that “the institution of Sharia law and a theocratic regime, were incompatible with the requirements of a democratic society.” The Universal Declaration of Human Rights is the basis of the European Commission and UK Human Rights Act and says the following, in brief, and in italics a summary of Islamic breaches: Article 1. All human beings are born free and equal in dignity and rights. They are endowed with reason and conscience and should act towards one another in a spirit of brotherhood. Islamic nations following Sharia Islamic Law do not follow through on this basic right – neither towards its women, nor towards apostates, nor towards non-Muslims or gay people. The Koran teaches that non-Muslims are less than human and that the death penalty of apostasy is death. It has been shown that a portion of the Muslim population in the UK has systematically abused non-Muslim girls and boys (children) and had female genital mutilation performed on their girls either in the UK or by taking UK citizens abroad for the procedure. The rights of women are of particular concern in the UK but also the right of apostates to leave Islam without needing to fear for their lives. Similarly the right of anyone to criticise Islam without fearing death, and the right of soldiers to walk their own land in uniform without fear of being brutally murdered, as happened to Drummer Lee Rigby. Read the verses of violence here. ... Article 4. No one shall be held in slavery or servitude; slavery and the slave trade shall be prohibited in all their forms.
The use of slaves in Islam is well documented throughout Islamic history is alive and well in Isis and other Muslim nations today and the Hadith shows that Muhammad himself owned and traded in slaves. The Koran provides Muslims with rules regarding sex with slaves. Isis are today enslaving the women and children of their self-declared ‘enemies’ such as the Yazidis, whilst killing and maiming their men. In Mauritania and Sudan Arab Muslims today still have slaves of among the Black Muslim people. Article 5. No one shall be subjected to torture or to cruel, inhuman or degrading treatment or punishment. Islam uses the ‘revelations’ of Muhammad in the Koran and the example of his life in the Hadith as the foundation of the belief system. In the Hadith it says: ‘He (The Prophet) had their hands and feet cut off. Then he ordered that nails should be heated and passed over their eyes, and they were left in the rocky land of Medina. They asked for water, but none provided them with water till they died.’ [30.18] There are numerous examples of Muhammad himself ordering stonings, beheadings and murders in the Hadith. Isis is simply copying the example of Muhammad in their barbaric treatment of human beings today – and Saudi Arabia still beheads and stones people to death, whilst Iran has public hangings of its people for such ‘sins’ as being gay or having committed adultery – as per the Koran and Hadith. Female Genital Mutilation (FGM) is another practice common in the Muslim world and sadly it takes place within the UK too. This is the barbaric, cruel, degrading and dehumanising practice of slicing a young girl’s clitoris and labia off without anaesthesia, then roughly sewing what is left back together, sometimes using thorns. Young girls often experience pain, infection, incontinence and terrible problems during urination, menstruation, sex and giving birth. The practice of child marriage again is rampant in the Muslim world, and is known to occur in UK mosques. The Koran calls unbelievers ‘Kaffirs‘ and states they are only good as property (slaves), to pay taxes to Muslim masters or for death: “Indeed, the penalty for those who wage war against Allah and His Messenger and strive upon earth [to cause] corruption is none but that they be killed or crucified or that their hands and feet be cut off from opposite sides or that they be exiled from the land. That is for them a disgrace in this world; and for them in the Hereafter is a great punishment.” [5: 33] It is no coincidence that crucifixion is used by Isis nor that non-Muslims are treated with contempt, killed and persecuted.
... Article 18. Everyone has the right to freedom of thought, conscience and religion; this right includes freedom to change his religion or belief, and freedom, either alone or in community with others and in public or private, to manifest his religion or belief in teaching, practice, worship and observance. Apostasy carries the death penalty in Islam. Critics of Islam such as Ayaan Hirsi-Ali must live under constant protection. Other critics have been brutally killed – see Theo van Gogh. Jews have been targeted in European attacks by Jihadists which has resulted in UK Jews being advised not to wear outward signs of their faith and has resulted in Synagogues requiring special protection. It is completely intolerable for anyone to have to live in fear for their lives in the UK because of what they believe or what they think or say.“ As you can see from all these examples, Islam is not a religion, but a barbaric death cult against whole civilization and humanity. Islam is not a religion, but a crime against humanity with its rules instigating to murder, rape, pedophilia, stoning to death, grab and many other violent actions. The main problem is bigger than “some extremists”. The Muslims called “moderate” are the ones who don't obey to all orders of Islam, and they are due to be “radicals” anytime, especially their young men and women. So, in fact, there is no “moderate” Muslims. Also Recep Tayyip Erdogan has declared this reality with saying; “The term 'moderate Islam' is ugly and offensive. There is no moderate Islam. Islam is Islam.” He is right, because there is no difference as moderate-radical Muslims, there is no seperation as Islam and Islamism, all of them are same. So, our main enemy is not “some extremist” Muslims, but Islam's itself.
