Radicalism: The Real Shock Was the Reaction of the Americans...

I attend a Christian Muslim Dialogue group and I see this at every meeting. No matter what facts you present they are received with disdain and dismissed. These people are very liberal minded and as liberals are prone to do they live by their feelings, facts be damned. It makes them feel so good about themselves to be accepting all people regardless of who they are or what they believe. If I did not attend these meetings there would not be any dialogue, which is the exchange of differing opinions, it would be Islamic apologetics. America is in store for a terrible shock in the future.

I have posted articles like this on FB and have had absolutely no response from anyone. I think Zuckerberg must consider it hate speech and suppresses it. I blamed it on ppl not caring but now I'm not so sure.

I am an idealist. I believe strongly in the US Constitution. The Constitution is the "law of the land" and it is extremely difficult to amend. Considering that the Constitution has only been amended 17 times since its inception in 1789 [the first ten amendments were ratified simultaneously with the Constitution], such a radical alteration of the Constitution that would allow Sharia Law to overtake the Constitution itself is almost impossible to conceive. My ideals say that this can never happen.

Furthermore, once the inevitable assimilation of the Muslims into American society occurs, the enthusiasm to take over America and go back to medieval times will subside. Also the birth rate of the Muslims will conform to the general birth rate and the increase in the Muslim numbers and percentage of the population will stabilise.

Anyone who thinks that it can't happen here, or, that Muslims who speak of such intentions do not really mean what they say, that those threats should not be cause for concern ought to take a long hard look at Turkey. Turkey became a country free of religious laws and enjoyed those freedoms for nearly 70 years. One election, which brought a Muslim to the Presidency reversed those years of progress and is now considered to be an Islamist country! Freedom can never be taken for granted, regardless of what it represents!

dr. rafizadeh, thank U for this article; we americans need to hear it. a lot of us already see the dangerous direction the nation is heading, but most do not, and have not been taught in schools to think for themselves. the hard left has controlled education in the u.s. for decades, and now no longer tries to hide its evil goals. like the brownshirts who terrorized german universities in the years before hitler was elected, the hard left uses riots, lies, and personal attacks to shut down opponents. i can see no reason for this to happen other than the destruction of civil society; the left is not run by stupid people, but they are bloodthirsty, and pious muslims who know islam and closely follow its tenets are the footsoldiers of their proxy army. i don't see the situation improving without an all-out civil war. i *really* don't want that, but both the hard left and pious muslims sure seem to want it.

Right on point. People simply will not take this seriously. They do not believe that the major threat to the Western World, including the U.S. is Islam. Most of the mainline Christian Protestant denominations, are pursuing a line of appeasement and accommodation for Islam and Muslims in general. This line of tolerance mirrors that of so called progressives and assorted radicals who will soon find themselves, and the rest of us, under the unyielding heal of Islam. By then, of course, it will be too late.

Back in the 50s there were warnings that if left unchecked Communism would control America. Nikita Khrushchev even showed how he would destroy America by banging his shoe on the desk at the UN. Most Americans laughed. That'll never happen! No we are in the 21st century and we are being ruled by democrats who have embraced Marxist socialism. When I came home from the first Gulf War we tried to tell people that Islam has the objective of establishing a caliphate and ruling the world. They just laughed. Now we see our spineless politicians allowing terrorists to cross the borders, judges setting illegal aliens free to commit crime in our cities, and allowing the cartels to sell rape, murder and chemical death on our streets. Politicians, professors, and celebrities, are doing their best to remove all vestiges of Christianity from our society and replacing it with sharia law and atheism. If don't wake up we will lose our nation to the wolves and there will be no recovery without blood, sweat and tears.

100%. What Dr. Majid is stating is completely true. I have a full knowledge of their thinking, ambitions, dreams, tactics and strategies, they are awful, the West must be aware of all that otherwise a catastrophic fate is ahead. "Tamaskan Hatta Tatamakkan" (pretend to be humble and weak until you become stronger and then you takeover), this is the simplest Islamic tactic.
Don't be deceived, they are not joking.

Islam might have been a religion---seven centuries ago, but no longer. Instead, it is a radical political movement that involves enslaving its females and marking for death anyone who disagrees with Islamic jihadist terrorism. This "religion of peace" is nothing other than an ever-expanding propaganda machine that tries to convince otherwise. They offer nothing to the United States, other than providing a never-ending line of applicants to our overly-generous welfare system. Hopefully, Trump will find a way to completely shut the doors to Muslim immigration.

The Islamists that believe they are close to gaining the rule of America are not dreamers ! The left is strong in politics in both the U.S.A. and Canada and they are aligning themselves with the Islamists. I have two sons in their 50's and neither believe Islam to be a threat to anyone. Nor does either pay attention to politics or what is transpiring in the world ! Both are far to busy with their employment and their families. It is impossible to talk current affairs with them as all you get back is laughter about what I have to say implying that I'm simply an old foggy that only reads right wing nonsense !
If this is true elsewhere, and I believe that it is, then they are close to gaining their goal of ruling America.

It reminds me of the story about the man who fell off a tall building and was heard to say as he passed each floor, "So far so good". It is the human failing of thinking things will turn out all right in the end, or, ignoring the lessons of history. Things did not run out all right with Hitler and they will not turn out all right with Islamists either.

America has swallowed the Secular Humanists pill, and this has led to a slow deterioration of standards, which included the loss of widespread appearance of the crib at Christmas as a national Observance, and prayer and bible in governmental schools. Even in places like Catholic Notre Dame, there have been denials, and challenges to church emphases. The enemy, in short, is within their country.
They are ready to be ordered and enslaved........by Islam.
Only a concerted and dedicated action of all its citizens will save it from this onslaught, and ensure it does not become preoccupied with drugs and animalistic sex, as it turns its back on eternal truths, and if slowly it becomes weakened so that its will is finally broken, then Islam will simply enforce its own will. Dhimmis will then be made, and these ultimately bow to the political will of Islam, so that they too become Muslim. It has all happened in other countries.
America has the capacity to avoid all this, but it must first address its Christian ethos in the microcosm. Is it strong enough? Secondly, it must address Islam from the perspective of democracy. Is democracy losing out? America cannot afford to be complacent.

Dear Sir,

When the Near East and North Africa became Muslim only a small number were needed to take over. But when the Muslim invasion of India failed it was a small number of Rajput who defeated them. To me the increase of Muslim influence in Holland, Uk and France are difficult to understand. These countries had extensive experience with Muslims and managed to control them for centuries. In most Western countries Muslim influence is increasing. A few manage to stem the tide. All that can be hoped for is that all the West will wake up. With Arab oil running out, the financing of Muslim infiltration will be suffer. It is a blessing that Muslims love to argue and kill each other. The West should encorage these self destructing conflicts and limit their interaction with Muslims to only mutually beneficial purposes.

Kind regards.

There are thousands of Americans that know just what the Muslims represent there are numerous organizations in the USA that keep track of what the Muslim Brotherhood is up too with their front organizations like CAIR pretending to be the good guys when everyone that follows this knows better. We know they are trying to force schools to teach courses in Islam but many parents objected because none of the schools are allowed to preach to the students. That is considered something that is the job of the parents not the schools. I think too that these radical Muslim preachers like Louis Farrakhan is nothing more that a loud mouthed trouble maker that likes the donations from his believers.
Keep in mind that the USA is full of ex-military as well as being the most heavily armed private citizens in the world an nobody will be able to take our guns away like what has happened to the EU.

The growth of Islam in the US in 5 years is mind-boggling. That appears to be Obama's true legacy...fundamentally changing America. And the liberal/progressive morons will applaud it until the Muslims give them a choice of submitting or dying.

Your words make sense. But what do you suggest we do about it?

We, whether in the US, UK or any other country with Christian roots need to stand together against Islam. The war with Islam has been going on for centuries, the only difference for now being its employment of insidious means rather than direct confrontation (fo the most part).

When they reach critical mass, which for some countries might well be achieved in a decade or so, that will change and they will again resort to violent means.

The worst aspect of all this is the assistance being provided to them by our own governments who no longer respect democracy but pursue their evil ends in the the belief that somehow they will evade the consequences.

Those in the US are fortunate that Donald Trump was elected but the risk still exists that a so-called Democrat could be elected and follow the path of (Muslim) Obama. We in the UK must find a way of deposing our present Muslim sympathising government and replacing it with one which respects native Brits and our democracy which was hard won by our ancestors.

Excellent and timely article. Reminds me of Hariri's treatise. Sadly, I fear that no one with the authority and power and resolve to do anything about this disease will read this and act accordingly. The entire Western World is circling the drain. If nothing is done, and soon, we will hit the event horizon. May God help us all. Because surely blood will flow if not.

Wise counsel -- unfortunately, most of the people in government who make the policy, and most in the education and news industries who inform the public, either can't see it, or disagree. If the public doesn't come to see it on their own, and demand action, or take action themselves, Islam is likely to rule in the future.

A very worrying phenomenon, so clear and obvious to any informed individual, aware of the extent of the growth of radical Islam in the US. This is highly organised, coordinated and pervasive, with the zealous often fanatical extremists working under the guise of social activists, so embraced by deluded uninformed leftists. Exacerbating the situation is the media which has irresponsibly suppressed deflected and tried to bury this situation.

American liberals and libertarian conservatives can't imagine that history might happen to them and that Islam is much more dangerous than conservative Christianity.

Thank you, first of all for a very well written opinion piece. The sad truth is that years of MSM, school and university indoctrination has now succeeded in it's goal. White males are the enemy, most young, white females see Islam as a benign answer to their own self loathing and hate for all that built our civilization is in some way divine. Coopting women was always going to be the winning formula. After all, they raise the children to hate their fathers, their society and their culture. They also vote for radicals, Democrats and pro Islamic groups. Sadly, white Western females were and are stupid enough to have fallen for this delusion. The West is done, it is now a cooling carcass soon to rot into obscurity. Because the people wish it so. Islam is the chosen architect of the demise.

It is apparent that a great many Americans seem to think that they will never be taken over by anyone or anything else. They need to take a good long look at what the politicians in Europe are doing at present, they are ignorant of the Muslims goal to turn Europe into an Islamic hellhole. They have conjured up new laws outlawing criticism of Islam, they label people "Islamophobes or Racists" if they speak out about the way Muslims act or the way they are infiltrating Schools, Universities, Local Councils, even Government! The politicians seem to have the crazy idea that Muslims will make up the workforce in Europe and contribute to the economy. To think that way for a second is lunacy. Muslims are in the West to eventually take control. The people of Europe don't like the creeping Islamic influences happening in their towns and cities, but the politicians in their warped wisdom see nothing wrong with this. They have refused to put a stop to "no, go, areas" in which none but Muslims are welcome. The criminal gangs consisting of mainly Muslims are not tackled and they openly deal drugs and pimp out young girls. All this will happen in the USA. Fortunately for the Americans, they have Trump, who will not tolerate this.

There are a great many in Britain and America who oppose Trump but at least he has the vision to recognise a very real danger and he is willing to tackle it head on. See what is happening with North Korea and Iran, he isn't taking any rubbish from them. In Europe, the politicians sell us out to the highest bidder, they hide the truth about Islam from the majority of people, by lying or shutting down any opposition or bad news reports concerning attacks by Muslims in Europe. The only time the media report is when they have no option but to tell the truth because it's in the public arena. However, the media does gloss over a lot and tends to stop reporting as soon as possible.

So.Dr. Rafizadeh, what do you believe we American non-Moslems should be doing, in order to protect ourselves and forestall the demographic danger, and the political danger to America? The actual physical dangers from radical criminals can be prepared for, and the prevention of mass migration has been precluded by the electoral defeat of Obama III (Clinton). The display of the destruction of most of Europe by the influx of Islamists and jihadists is so horrific that there is less incentive to weaken our immigration laws. However, we must never allow Clinton-Sanders types to win the Congress, lest we get a Merkel-type government. Given your estimable experience and expertise, what would you advise us to do? Is merely staying Republican enough or are there other steps we can take? Can we somehow affect Islam itself (foolish thought !) .

Yesterday I was in a grocery store IN THE USA. A Middle Eastern man harassed a young woman who was shopping wearing a bikini top and cutoff shorts. This is not "radical Islam." This is NORMAL ISLAM. Normal Islam is also hostile to the Constitution, Bill of Rights and especially the First Amendment. We need politicians like Geert Wilders and Viktor Orban and activists like Tommy Robinson. Classic liberals like Pam Geller, Robert Spencer and Jamie Glazov need to be supported and not ignored or condemned. ISLAM NEEDS TO BE OPENLY AND RICHLY CONDEMNED.

The Americans who consider this bluster are the stupidest people on Earth, and they know zero history.
Muslims have invaded country after country, murdering and pillaging to spread their ideology.
I will bet that even Americans who decide to read some of this history will state blithely that this can't happen in this day and age. However, they have been invading Europe and the Americas very subtly, moving here by the tens of thousands, having large families, and being part of a network that advocates taking over the world, as long as that may take.
And many, with their ignorant "tolerance," are letting it happen.

This is a very good article but the words extreme and radical should be removed and replaced by devout and fundamentalist in order to give a more accurate picture of the coming calamity. A rational response to 9/11 would have been a ban on further Muslim immigration.

This is a spiritual battle, which must be fought with spiritual weapons. All Americans and friends of America who believe in the God of the Bible, the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, and His Blessed Son Jesus Christ, need to pray to Him. He is The God Above All Gods, and infinitely more powerful than the Muslim radicalist "god", who is merely a malicious, lying demon. Perhaps if we put away our wicked self-reliance and complacency and sincerely petition The Great "I AM"(YHWH) through His Glorious and Blessed Son Jesus Christ, He will grant us deliverance from this great evil.

Nebuchadnezzar spoke, saying to them, "Is it true, Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-Nego, that you do not serve my gods or worship the gold image which I have set up? Now if you are ready at the time you hear the sound of the horn, flute, harp, lyre, and psaltery, in symphony with all kinds of music, and you fall down and worship the image which I have made, good! But if you do not worship, you shall be cast immediately into the midst of a burning fiery furnace. And who is the god who will deliver you from my hands?"

"Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-Nego answered and said to the king, 'O Nebuchadnezzar, we have no need to answer you in this matter. If that is the case, our God whom we serve is able to deliver us from the burning fiery furnace, and He will deliver us from your hand, O king. But if not, let it be known to you, O king, that we do not serve your gods, nor will we worship the gold image which you have set up.'"

"'Look!' he answered, 'I see four men loose, walking in the midst of the fire; and they are not hurt, and the form of the fourth is like the Son of God.'"
