Is American Islamophobia Justified?

The latest attack against members of a Sikh temple has commonly been placed in context of a mistaken identity by a lone and ignorant supremacist. The target should have been a Muslim mosque, so it is believed, as if that would constitute an entirely different and understandable, probably even tolerable act of violence. This broad “consensus” about the real target raises some fundamental questions about American Islamophobia: Is there any substance to the suspicions of (Christian) America that their territory might be subverted with Sharia law?

Considering the widespread religious killings and arson attacks across the world, including on our home soil, we should ask whether the various Judaic religions are indeed as peaceful as they claim to be. The simple answer is to be found in history: since the birth of Judaism, heresies – whichever that means – have kept the world to hold its breath. The trouble with all Judaic sects is that there is only one truth, theirs. All others are to be excluded, shunned, or terminated until there is only one in a happy theocracy of fearful believers.

The more disturbing answer pertaining to Islam is given by the great Muslim scholar Mohammed ibn Khaldun of the fourteenth century:

“In the Muslim community, the holy war is a religious duty, because of the universalism of the (Muslim) mission and (the obligation to) convert everybody to Islam either by persuasion or by force.” (Khaldun, Muqaddimah , 5:31)

We can continue to dismiss the atrocities of one religious group against another and excuse them as mishaps of extreme individuals. Instead, we should have a better ear for the conduct of leaders in the synagogues, mosques, churches, and temples. We find Koran burning priests, Catholic preachers against homosexuality, political opportunists, pedophiles, filthy rich gospel prophets, and other charlatans across the country and the world, not to forget some prominent imams with their expressed hatred of mankind – other than their own supporters. Many build their followings on the exclusion of others and on stimulating violence and war, however, always out of the spotlight. The triggers are then pulled by the ignorant foot-folks, and these are excused because God conducts the killings (Koran 8:15). They die as martyrs in God’s way.

“Peace” in any religious context is always to be understood by the terms of the individual sect, not as an approach to mutual toleration. More specifically, the Koran is a message of peace and kindness, but only among their own disciples. The rest of humanity is to be viewed in the context of victory.

“Then, when the sacred months are drawn away, slay the idolaters wherever you find them, and take them, and confine them, and lie in wait for them at every place of ambush. But if they repent, and perform the prayer, and pay the alms, then let them go their way.” (Koran 9:5, see also 4:78, 48:30)

Sharia law is somewhat “better” than the Koran. On one hand, it puts the authority to violence into the hands of the imams. Muslims are, according to their laws, not allowed to act alone and not without provocation. On the other hand, it launches jihad between Shi’ites and Sunnis, and against the Jews, a war of bomb attacks and killings of innocents that has been ongoing ever since up until this very day.

“The Jews will fight with you, and you will be given victory over them so that a stone will say, “O Muslim! There is a Jew behind me; kill him!” (Bukhari 4:56:791)

The Prophet was asked, “Which is the best deed?” He said, “To believe in Allah and His Apostle.” He was then asked, “Which is the next (in goodness)?” He said, “To participate in Jihad in Allah’s Cause.” (Bukhari 2:26:594)

We can twist and turn as we wish, American Islamophobia rests on substance. However, in the end, the Muslim doctrines are only part of a larger religious context that plays within the same core rule: exclusion of all that do not submit to their single truth. This rule does not justify any violent acts against Muslims or any other religious groups.

To defend the straight forward jihadist commands in the Koran and in the Sharia laws, one would have to put jihad into the greater historical context, an undertaking that would rewrite the story of Prophet Muhammad and the rise of Islam. What would emerge is a call to jihad against a holy war that had been declared against the “Arabs” by the Byzantine Empire – an act of self-defense. They were taking a stand against the forced conversion to Orthodox Christianity. A historical view of jihad would bring about the hope that the wars among believers were in the past.

The modern jihad is to be won in a cold war of freedom and prosperity for all, not a piling up of weapons of mass destruction and a demonstration of force by extremists who blow themselves up and indulge in poverty and self-inflicted suffering.

Why Muslims Hate Jews

All the attention is focused on Iran’s ambition for building a nuclear bomb while Israel’s secret nuclear program that is backed by the Americans does not seem to deserve suppressing by the world’s powers. Before America is going to be manipulated into yet another war, this time sending Iran back into systemic poverty, it should ask itself some fundamental questions:

1. Why do many Muslims hate Jewish people and the state of Israel?

2. Why have the Jews been despised through a series of historical holocausts?

3. Where does the strong American pro-Jewish and anti-Iranian bias find its rational?

A quick survey with my Muslim friends revealed that they do not know any reasons. They guess that the hatred might be connected to Palestine but Shi’ites did not have a vested interest in that conflict. Hence, the answers to these questions require a long journey through a complex religious history. In this process, one soon faces a series of seemingly inexplicable paradoxes. For example, while the Koran undoubtedly calls for Jihad against the Western flavor of Christianity, it embraces the Jews as one of its core partners that are to be respected. This seems to have worked in the Muslim territories until the end of the Abbasid era, which lasted from the 750s to the 1200s. For example, the Medieval Jewish traveler Benjamin of Tudela reported at the end of the twelfth century how hundreds of thousands of Jews were held in high regard throughout the Abbasid Caliphate while living at the fringe in the Christian territories. The Jews even held the Iron Scepter in Baghdad, almost as if in joint rule. Without going into details,* something went wrong at the onset or during the Abbasid Caliphate that triggered said hatred and brought forth anti-Jewish traditions. The Muslim story finds its parallel earlier in the fourth century, when Judaism lost control over Christianity. Is it possible that a similar process had been in place for Islam?

The Jews went through a series of Holocausts and expulsions on Christian soils since before the advent of Islam. From the thirteenth century onwards, the Jews were despised by both, Muslims and Christians. The anti-Semitism found its culmination in the diatribes and atrocities against the Jews and the Muslims triggered by the founder of the Protestant Church, Martin Luther, and then again in the Holocaust of WWII. Yet, the hatred against the Jews goes even beyond, deep into the first and second century, when the Roman Empire saw itself forced to flatten the Temple in Jerusalem and expel all Jews from the city for over a thousand years to come. In the Bible, the Jews pride themselves for being hated by everyone.

The Holocaust is prominently disputed by the Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, leading to the infamous walkouts during his speeches. He essentially says that the high death toll of Jews during the Holocaust is grossly amplified by the Ultra-Orthodox Jewish establishment. They do so, his thinking goes, because the accompanying guilt and compassion by the West leads them to be manipulated into providing the Jews with extraordinary and undeserved privileges.

This all makes no sense. The Jews are industrious and highly intelligent people from whom the rest of the world could learn a lot, even today. The resilient and adaptable Jew deserves admiration. This of course might be based on the bias of my last name that indicates a Jewish heritage even though I consider myself religiously cured.

In order to answer the question in as brief and profound possible way, basic human behavior serves to illustrate what is going on. Humans have a strong propensity to trust and enforce their inner group’s world views. Obviously, these views differ so strongly between groups that a rational mind should be inclined to ask questions. Instead, humans tend to selectively acquire everything that enforces their views and indiscriminately dismiss everything else. This fundamental behavioral shortcoming is prone to manipulation and is also at the heart of religious systems. After all, being hated fuses a people in stubborn defiance. In other words, when reading history, in particular the one of religion, humans typically read what vested groups want them to read. It means that the forefathers of the Jews, the Christians, and the Muslims have gone through great efforts to bend, destroy, and falsify history to their own liking. This is why each of the three religious narratives appear almost as if they evolved over long stretches in isolation from one another and unimpressed by external socio-economic influences. In the case of Islam, the destruction and reinterpretation was particularly strong at the advent of the Abbasid Caliphate and also after its fall. Most of what is believed today was then created in fraudulent traditions that did not exist before.

Unfortunately, here is where the Ultra-Orthodox Jew is coming back in. Throughout history, the complaints against the Ultra-Orthodox have been along the line of treachery, political manipulation, and financial enslavement of non-Jews by Jews. These are the same complaints that Muslims bring forth against the Ultra-Orthodox Jews today.

It seems wise to untangle the foundation of said past before letting America be manipulated into yet another war.

One could easily dismiss all this and launch an attack on Iran’s suspected nuclear facilities (as in Iraq, the claims remain unproven, yet surely true). As Israel builds its secret nuclear program, the West’s pounding against a similar program in Iran is hypocritical and ethnically biased. While it is certain that Ahmadinejad wants to be armed with nuclear weapons, he can do so by walking into Russian shopping malls, for example. It seems though that both sides must be aware that a nuclear exchange would have terminal consequences for the participants, except for the Ultra-Orthodox Jews who ensure their survival with a strategy of global dispersion. They will perpetually return to Jerusalem and restart the cycle of hatred. Yet, as with the Soviet-U.S. arsenals, it seems that such armament has rendered the world not only safer but also technologically more advanced and more prosperous. Sitting on a barrel of explosives makes one think twice before lighting a fire. An accident is thus more likely than an intentional and mutual mass suicide.

While only the ignorant can dismiss the Muslims’ duty to Jihad (or the Christians’ to Holy War, or the Jews’ to the re-conquest of Canaan) and proclaim the religion as one of peace and human rights, the Koran expressively prohibits first strike aggression. This is the only insurance policy that has prevented a billion Muslims to overrun Israel. As long as Israel does not strike Iran, Ahmadinejad is bound by his fundamentalist religious beliefs not to launch an aggressive attack.

President Obama seems to tread carefully and hopefully recognizes that an attack on Iran would have disastrous consequences, beyond the potential economic impact through supply disruptions of oil. However, America must send a clear message to Jerusalem that Israel is on its own in the event of a unilateral attack against Iran. It seems that the time is opportune for a strike because of the continued turmoil that destabilizes much of the Muslim Middle East. However, having been religiously prepared for decades for such an event, it will instantly fuse the global Shi’ite Muslim populations on an unprecedented scale and prove the Doomsday prophets right. All three religions have been waiting for this day for millennia and are welcoming it in the name of a new world where only the “good” survive.

The current sanctions against Ahmadinejad’s seem to have their intended effect and will soften the aggressive verbal exchanges over time. In particular, the financial threat to expel Iran from the SWIFT banking network is potentially catastrophic for Ahmadinejad (but it also highlights the network’s concentrated point of global power). The main reason why Israel’s Benjamin Netanyahu is currently bullying Iran is his confidence of being backed by the U.S. It is unfortunate that Jewish financial contributions can possibly manipulate candidates in the ongoing presidential election into concessions that might be against the interest of the American people.

Before taking any action against another Muslim country upon the advice of the Ultra-Orthodox establishment in Israel, America needs to put together its brightest minds and untangle the forged histories of the Jewish, Christian, and Muslim people. People of modern civilizations would finally understand how religious zealots manipulate them into violence when instead cooperation would help solving the pressing problems of the only world that we have to live in.

Humantarian Disaster in Somalia – an American Opportunity?

The unfolding humanitarian disaster in Somalia and its neighboring states is beyond precedent. In the most devastating famine in six decades, 750,000 people are starving to death without substantial aid reaching them.  In Djibouti, Ethiopia, Kenya, Somalia, and Uganda, more than 13 million people need emergency assistance. While refugee camps are overcrowded, the crisis areas are also among the world’s most dangerous conflict zones. Malnourished children are prone to disease and die away in hordes. Many are too weak to even fend off the flies from their eyes. Induced by severe drought, water and food are scarce, and up to half of the aid that reaches the ground is being misappropriated.

For twenty years, Somalia has been a failed state with roughly 10 million people, most of them believing in a version of Sunni and Sufi Islam. The GDP is estimated at about $6 billion and the needed aid amounts to about $700 million until year’s end.  The most inaccessible areas are those in the south of Somalia that are controlled by the militant Islamic group al-Shabaab, which is affiliated with al-Qaeda. Much of the sea is controlled by pirates. The al-Shabaab group is in conflict with other Islamic sects over the strict interpretation of Sharia law. They oppose the Transitional Federal Government (TFG), which just came to free the country’s capital Mogadishu from the insurgents with the help of troops from the African Union. The opposition rests on anti-Americanism with al-Shabaab militants believing that the Americans backed not only the TFG but also the Ethiopian invasion from a few years back to intervene in a civil war. Before that, communists ruled the country, and even before, British Imperialism and Italian Colonialism, all put their mark on the area after they had plundered the land.

Somalia is a country with potential. Seasonal rains make it an agriculturally valuable area. With reliable irrigation systems, Somalia could ensure food safety. Arab states have recognized Somalia’s values and invest in farmlands and export infrastructure for livestock. Frankincense and myrrh are important export products and the land is suitable for domestic corn production.

Although unreliable, troops of the African Union are on the ground. They have the exaggerated but unfortunate reputation of shelling civilians. American drones have been in the air for months. Hence, the level of reconnaissance in the area should be good. However, indifference on the part of the international community keeps an unprecedented humanitarian disaster lingering on and the world stands by with thousands dying every day. They do not have dirty water; instead, there is no water; they are not malnourished;
there is no food. Somalians are left rotting in their own filth, abandoned by the rich world that perceives its financial turmoil as more important than their lives.

America has lost a lot of goodwill in the Middle East with its war on terrorism.  Perceived as the big brother of Israel, the level of Anti-Americanism and sheer religious hatred among Muslims fly high. The revelation that several homegrown terrorist plots on American soil turned out to be induced by the American authorities will not help to foster trust, either abroad or at home.

Somalians urgently need help. In order to get enough water and food through to them, a corridor is needed that allows the various aid organizations to move freely. While dangerous, al-Shabaab militants are neither well armed nor well trained. Together with forces of the African Union and Arab nations, a small contingent of the American army could─on their way home, so to speak─install such a corridor with relatively little risk to American lives. Is there finally a just use of American force to enable the process of saving lives in a foreign land? Neighboring nations, including Arab countries, would likely support a massive humanitarian initiative that is free from the burden of religion, and
the Peace Corps could follow in order to promote stability. Armed emergency measures amount to an American opportunity to correct its image by utilizing its superb forces  already nearby for a humanitarian cause that can otherwise not be resolved.

The root cause of Somalia’s poverty and humanitarian disasters lies in religious sects that are strong enough to control majorities. This same pattern persists in most Islamic countries. In the long run, Somalia’s solutions to systemic hunger and disease include a reformation of Islam, creating a deeper sectarian fragmentation. When religious sects represent minorities they shift their focus to secularism, democratization, and separation of church and state.

A Palestine Paradox

In his speech at Cairo University on June 4, 2009, President Obama outlined a new beginning, including views on the Israeli-Palestinian peace process. He said that it is “undeniable that the Palestinian people — Muslims and Christians — have suffered in pursuit of a homeland. For more than 60 years they’ve endured the pain of dislocation. Many wait in refugee camps in the West Bank, Gaza, and neighboring lands for a life
of peace and security that they have never been able to lead. They endure the daily humiliations — large and small — that come with occupation. So let there be no doubt: The situation for the Palestinian people is intolerable. And America will not turn our backs on the legitimate Palestinian aspiration for dignity, opportunity, and a state of their own.” He added “The only resolution is for the aspirations of both sides to be met through two states, where Israelis and Palestinians each live in peace and security.” In regards to the
Israeli settlements he made clear that the United States did not accept their legitimacy. “This construction violates previous agreements and undermines efforts to achieve peace. It is time for these settlements to stop.” In a broader view, Obama noted, “but I do have an unyielding belief that all people yearn for certain things: the ability to speak your mind and have a say in how you are governed; confidence in the rule of law and the equal administration of justice; government that is transparent and doesn’t steal from the people; the freedom to live as you choose. These are not just American ideas; they are
human rights. And that is why we will support them everywhere. […] And I want to particularly say this to young people of every faith, in every country — you, more than anyone, have the ability to reimagine the world, to remake this world.”

The relationship between Palestinians and Jews has been a complex one for over two millennia. Its conflicts find their foundation in the Jewish Torah. Even today, the Ultra-Orthodox Israeli government is driven by the eternal goal of redeeming all of the land of Canaan as outlined in the Bible. This land claim includes most of Syria up to the Euphrates River, Jordan, Lebanon, and the Sinai Peninsula. The land of the Palestinians is only an immediate target of the Ultra-Orthodox Jews. By mandate of the Torah, the Palestinians and all non-Jewish ethnicity are to be rooted out (Josh  13:2). As the extremist Ultra-Orthodox are guided by the Torah, they have a standing mandate not to enter treaties with anyone who lived in the land of Canaan (Ex. 34:15-16).  It seems apparent that Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has been and will continue to stall the process of peace with any conceivable means. Given that religion is still the defining cultural marker of societies, the Biblical foundation cannot be taken lightly as a relic of the past. In his address to the U.S. congress on May 24, 2011, Netanyahu─an Ultra-Orthodox─made it clear that it cannot be denied that the land of Israel was promised to the Jews by Abraham (a denial of
this claim to the land of Canaan is laid out in The Great Leap-Fraud, Social Economics of Religious Terrorism).

Through the assistance of a precursor of the United Nations—pressured by three terrorist organizations, the Zionist Irgun paramilitary, the radical Lehi Fighters for the Freedom of Israel, and the Haganah paramilitary—the world has provided the Jewish people with a sanctuary to share with the Palestinians. This decision was taken without the consent of
either the Palestinians or the surrounding nations. Ever since, the Ultra-Orthodox Jews have been quarrelling and rebelling against the world’s will, and their neighbors are still intending to wipe Israel out. “Israel is the West’s spoiled child,” the Turkish prime minister, Recep Tayyip Erdogan said, “to this day it has never executed a decision by the international community” (nytimes 13.9.2011). These tensions will not be negotiated away with a peace treaty.

The situation is fairly straight forward as Palestinians and most of their neighbors do not wish to accept an Israeli state and Israel rejects a Palestinian state or eventually any other state that is situated in the land of Canaan. Hence, the acceptance of a Palestinian state by
the United Nations is of utmost but rather symbolic importance. Firstly, the Palestinian people demand sovereignty; secondly, acceptance fulfills President Obama’s and the United States’ promise─an obligation─that they can choose their own government and live as they choose, not as Israel dictates; thirdly, it provides them with what is needed most: dignity and opportunity to their self-determination, even if they happen to choose to live under an Islamic framework. Welcoming statehood helps covering the generations old guilt of the world standing by while millions have been displaced by the Israelis from the Palestinian homeland and deprived of even the most basic necessities.

Will a Palestinian state bring peace to the Middle East? Given the aggressive stance of the Ultra-Orthodox leadership in Israel, it would be unwise to believe so. However, while the Biblical claim to Canaan is eternal, the current approach to a Palestinian state is at least not trying to reclaim the land of Israel. That in itself deserves the acknowledgment of
Palestine’s sovereignty, free of Israeli conditions or (military) control. The concept of a sustainable platform of negotiations by Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton is not put into question regardless of the U.N.’s upcoming decision. All nations are continuously negotiating their relations─as nations. A United Nations resolution would establish the right for the Palestinians to act as a member of an international platform. Hence, a vote to accept Palestine as a member state is not the end of negotiations but a new beginning.

An American veto against full Palestine membership renders Obama’s inspiration for a new beginning hollow. America would be recognized as ruled behind the scenes by vested Jewish interests forming a new rift of hatred and anti-Americanism. Hence, President Mahmoud Abbas of the Palestinian Authority is asking not only the legitimate but also the right question of a full membership by the Palestinians with the United Nations, based on the 1967 borders. This week is a reckoning where the true faces will make themselves shown. If peace should ever be achieved, the approach with the Middle East must be changed. America has to ask itself what its interest is to protect Israel, which has treated the world’s will with contempt ever since its inception. The atrocities against the Jewish people of the past cannot serve for an excuse to eternal aggressions against their neighbors or to impose perpetual poverty on the Palestinians. This intolerable oppression amounts to state sponsored terrorism that has been indirectly supported by the United States of America, our iconic land of freedom.

If the Arab Spring Turns Ugly

The article in the New York Times “If the Arab spring Turns Ugly”by Vali Nasr (August 27, 2011) displays an unusual awareness that a sectarian division in the Middle East between the Shi’ites and Sunnis might spell doom over the aspirations of the Arab Spring.

Nasr is one of very few writers that recognize the sectarian problem in the Middle East as an important shape agent. The research in The Great Leap-Fraud – Social Economics of Religious Terrorism, Volume II, Islam and Secularization,
shows that the issue is more deeply rooted than commonly thought. The Muslim traditions make believe that there was a time of unity and cooperation among the Muslim sects. However, that is hardly so and the sectarian divisions reach right
back to and beyond the beginning of Islam and Muhammad. As the Christian claim to peace and understanding can easily be refuted through its historic evidence, to assume (or believe) that Islam would have started as a religion of unity
seems naïve. The Koran includes a narrow set of Christian and Jewish sects and specifically excludes the adherents of Trinitarian Christianity – the Christianity of the modern West. Probably all religions, in particular the three
Judaic faiths, have one unifying theme: exclusion of others for the sake of supremacy. Throughout history, religion has been shaped and abused for power, usually at the expense of minorities.

Having said this, when zeroing in on Islam, the dream of Muslim democracies, as laid out in Nasr’s article may be utopian. Firstly, whether the West likes it or not, the nations in the Middle East will be Muslim. The Shi’ite / Sunni division only selects one flavor over another but it does not promote inclusion or democracy in the hopes of the West. In all cases, it may promote an Iranian style “democracy” where the candidates for the head of state are a short list of contenders, accepted by the imams. Even if that were not the case, there will be no democratically elected Shi’ite leader in areas of Sunni domination and vice versa.

This is not to say that Muslims do not long of peace. However, their religious intellectual framework hinders them from braking free from the straight jacket of mutual intolerance.

Where does this lead us and what can the West do? The secret to unlocking the positive Muslim energies (the findings in The Great Leap-Fraud show that the Muslim ideology could provide for a stronger framework for peace and prosperity than the Christian doctrines) may lie in supporting a Muslim reformation. Firstly, an honest reassessment of Muslim history will bring forth the inevitable conclusion that there was no era of prosperity under Islam where nobody could be found to receive the zakat (alms). The historic evidence seems quite clear that the Umayyads rejected the Koran of the Muhammadeans after having first been forced to accept it. Secondly, the Shi’ite fixation on Husain and the chain of imams should be reevaluated. It could dawn on some Shi’ites that Muhammad himself would serve as the better role model in creating prosperity than the rejectionist stance of an overhyped martyr that continues to stir the open wounds for over 1300 years. Scholars would soon realize that the first centuries of Muslim history was marked by an almost uninterrupted succession of sectarian civil wars, refuting the notion of a unified Muslim caliphate. Thirdly, the re-evaluation of the traditions (probably the most important step toward a reformation) would quickly bring forth that they were largely inventions with specific purposes that lie in the context of 100 to 200 years after Muhammad. Studying Muslim primary evidence absent of later traditions is a revealing experience in this respect.

To help the Middle East out of its dark age, the West needs to conduct the ground work for an entirely new approach. For this, the Christian West (and Israel) needs to be honest and break open its own convoluted religious history.  It may unveil some unwelcome surprises. A Muslim reformation would hopefully bring forth a fragmentation of both, the Shi’ite and Sunni adherents. This, in turn could potentially put all large sects into minority positions, which would finally force them to cooperate among each other and with the West.

For an early assessment of the Arab Spring, review the article “The Future of Egypt is with Islam” (February 19, 2011). It can be found at www.ajdeus.org/articles/417.

Jihad, Oslo Crusade, Religious Terrorism, and Systemic Poverty Traced to Historical Roots

The first edition of The Great Leap-Fraud-Social Economics of Religious Terrorism – Social Economics of Religious Terrorism is now complete.

Terrorism affects nearly every country, and attempt after attempt to precisely define why it remains so prevalent continue to fail. A.J. Deus offers one possible root cause in his new non-fiction book, The Great Leap-Fraud: Social Economics of Religious Terrorism (Volume I – Judaism and Christianity, Volume II – Islam and
Secularization).

In a highly relevant analysis to the current crisis in the Middle East and the terrorist attacks in Oslo, The Great Leap-Fraud reassesses a vast body of primary documents from the beginning of Judaism through the evolution of Islam and the Christian Reformation. It evaluates the Judaic Scripture of the Jews, Christians and Muslims for its potential to stir hatred, violence and terrorism, and it searches for messages in the Scriptures that may influence the economic behavior
of societies. The book unveils the intellectual framework that led to catastrophic events such as 9/11 and the attacks in Oslo, and demonstrates how the tragedies will keep feeding on themselves under cover of religious freedom.

The Great Leap-Fraud shows in detail how Muslim, Christian, or Jewish religious extremism emerges, and how its mechanisms lead to infiltrating societies to turn them into theocracies that have to endure persistent poverty and terrorism. It explains the duty of Muslims to jihad and how the original commandment fits into the context of history as a response to a holy war that had been declared against the Arian Christians of the time.

Deus uncovers major findings about the motifs of Judaic religions, their forms of social organization and their strengths, the mechanism between social changes and religious violence, as well as the interdependence between religiosity and economic development. The work offers important insights into the secularization process and how the outlook and strategy of sects have changed over time.

• Motifs of religious organizations
• Intellectual framework and social norms in four Judaic religions
• Mode and speed of adaptation
• Interaction mechanism between believers and non-believers
• Reasons for changing history and destroying evidence
• Economic development and religion
• Reasons for modern religious terrorism

The Great Leap-Fraud has been selected by iUniverse as both an Editor’s Choice and Rising Star program selection.

Oslo Terror Knights: Political Agenda

My last three articles about the Oslo Terror Knights focused on their grand goals under Breivik, their intellectual framework of religion, and their tactical manual. Today, the political agenda of the Terror Knights is being examined more closely.

It is quite pretentious that an entirely unknown terror organization, which seems to have been plotting its first moves for a decade, sees itself as the leader of a conservative European independence movement. The Terror Knights did not attempt to utilize the political arena in order to be heard.  Instead, the path of martyrdom and violence seems to be the preferable avenue. These are not fallen politicians that feel misunderstood and unheard. They are ordinary Christians that were not connected to the political establishment. Somehow, they must know that their agendas cannot fall on fertile grounds and that their path to power could only be through terrorism. The future will tell whether anybody will vote for their cause. By the standards of history, Hitler was democratically elected despite his well-known stance against the Jews in Germany. He had composed theanti-Semitic book Mein Kampf long before being heaved to power. Why the Terror Knights chose violence and hatred as their primary mode of operations over manipulating the democratic process remains elusive in the Terror Knight’s compendium 2083 – A
Declaration of European Independence. Hatred and disenchantment seems a more
promising avenue for outsiders to reach for power.  How any of the Terror Knights might position themselves after the death of over 70 people, mostly youth from the political island camp, is a mystery. It seems quite certain that Breivik’s ultra-short political
career is all but over and restricted to life in a cell.

The disenchantment card is played strongly in the Terror Knight’s 1500 page manual. Interestingly and as hard as it is to admit, the Terror Knights have a point when it comes to the divisive issue of European immigration, whether the newcomers arrived from crisis areas or from Muslim domains. Some European countries, Austria and Switzerland for example, have sizable right leaning political parties that play the same fiddle (less the bombs and bullets). Embedded in a political process, these are valid concerns, although
difficult to address.

Personally, I believe in freedom for any and all humans, a concept that should be easily understood by North Americans. It is not a shared consensus, though, what that freedom should entail when it comes to immigration. Christian Americans─immigrants by definition─should respond to new arrivals with open arms. However, they respond with fences against Catholic Mexicans and many display hatred against Muslim immigrants. It seems a misguided concept that violates basic human rights─not only by the Terror Knights─that the sheer presence of a majority entitles the locking out of newcomers with
good intentions. The example of Canada shows that culture and immigration can
be in a positive flux. However, this is no guarantee for this country to remaining free of terrorism. Canada has plenty of problems with drug gangs, and religious blocks may rattle their sectarian sables at any time.

Afghanistan is an example for deeply rooted religious gender segregation. The Terror Knights want to reintroduce Taliban style gender separation on all levels, private, government, schools, even colleges and universities. The Paulinic letters of the New Testament carry a message of collectivism and mirror Paul’s mission to rid the world of sexual immortality. The Terror Knights return to these ideas in favor of religious traditions. In order to appease liberal people, they would create “liberal zone” areas in the image of Las Vegas where a lifestyle of sex and sin without ethical norms would be
tolerated. These sin cities would be isolated from the rest of society, which would live under a new mentality of anti-promiscuity. The Terror Knights go as far as invading the sphere of romantic love, condemning it as an illusion. In a roundabout return to Catholic chastity, the Terror Knights declare:

“Love is not about finding the right person, but creating a right relationship. It’s not about how much love you have in the beginning but how much love you build till the end!
As for marriages, a man has to realize that marriage is not an institution for unlimited sex, but an institution for raising children.”

The idea behind sex for procreation is particularly strong in the book of Romans in the New Testament, but even in the book of Matthew, the innocent flirt and a lustful gaze is enough for adultery. While the Paulinic letters in the New Testament condemn sexual immorality, they also brought forth an interpretation that is quite puzzling. “It is good for a man not to touch a woman” (Corinthians 7:1). The social rejection went deep into the heart of family life, and because immorality was rampant at Paul’s time, he came up with
the concept of sexual marital duties as a concession to man’s weakness, not as a command. The Terror Knights revive it. Paul insisted that the true believers should not marry in the first place (Corinthians 7:28-34). Just as God and money cannot be served, God and a wife cannot be served, not to mention multiple wives or even a thousand female partners as in the role model of the Biblical master in promiscuity, King Salomon.

The Terror Knights’ concept of purposeful procreation serves to ramp up the demographics in order to fill up what they call “population guideline capacity” with Nordic-Germanics, a white supremacist concept of limiting global population to roughly 2.5 billion people while maximizing Nordic-Germanics. Civil war and crusade, induced by the Terror Knights, serves the purpose of depopulating the planet by over 60 % and shifting the demographic balance. In a shocking display of hatred of humanity, the Terror Knights refuse humanitarian aid on the notion that a country is over-populated: “If starvation threatens the countries who have failed to follow our guidelines we should not support them by backing their corrupt leaders or send any form of aid.” The point is that by the
standard of 2.5 billion people, every country is overpopulated. Hence, the policy is to let anyone starve who should end up in a humanitarian disaster─except for the supreme race, the Nordic-Germanics. They seem to miss the fundamental mechanism of nature’s interventionist powers when the global population exceeds the standard capacity of sea, soil and technology.

Servant classes should come from cheap foreign labor that are allowed into Europe on a one year “focus contract.” Upon expiry, the foreigner has to return home.  The Terror
Knights’ idea is that immigrants used to come to Europe as cheap laborers. However, their offspring would aim higher and be unwilling to continue their parents’ lowly labor, hence prompting even more immigration. The Terror Knights overlook in their political agenda that they would not have to worry about foreign labor. By depopulating the planet, they would trigger a real estate collapse and an unprecedented economic shakedown. The world would fall into a deep intellectual and economic depression for about a century.

How do the Terror Knights relate to North America? There is nothing original in the 1500 page compendium. It is a religious extremist work that rests on ideas from the Bible, doctrines of the Catholic Church, some wickedness in the style of the Bilderberg world order, and mixed with some right-wing gibberish that seems to be influenced by right-wing bloggers out of the United States, for example Robert Spencer and his jihadwatch.org. Instead of applying critical thinking of their own to bring forth a new vision for Europe, they recycle old Christian ideals that are proven to have brought forth
(religious) unhappiness and poverty. In order to understand the world’s conflicts, I teach my children to ask one critical question: which religious sect is represented on each side? In many cases, the answer is straight forward.

Would such acts of hatred against mankind be possible on American soil, committed by American citizens? There are thousands, if not tens of thousands of extremist right-wing, supremacists, religious fanatics, racists, etc. living among ordinary people in North America. Many of them are armed and dangerous, training for armed revolts to bring back conservative Christianity into the mainstream. Hordes have no intelligent thought and could potentially be manipulated into hatred and violence, like religious sheep. Hence, it can be expected that 2083 – A European Declaration of Independence could serve as a
model and an instructional manual for a new breed of violent cells. Then there are the disenchanted, in the tens of millions, those that had placed their last hope on the promise of Change by Barak Obama, the millions of unemployed, and the tens of millions of those that live an American nightmare rather than the dream, working three jobs, unable to make ends meet. In other words, it is a miracle that homegrown terrorism and (violent) mass protests are uncommon in the United States. It almost seems that America has become a complacent entitlement society that cares more about the daily dose of sitcoms and infotainment rather than about the consequences of the Terror Knights. These are societal ingredients as dangerous as religious extremism and terrorism. Disenchantment,
complacency, and ignorance enable homegrown (religious) extremism and terrorism.

Faith is much stronger than political dogmas. Given that the Terror Knights are a religious schoolbook terrorist organization, Oslo is unfortunately not going to be the last place they will be heard from.

Oslo Terror Knights: A Tactical Open Source Manual

The last two days, the grand goals of the religious Terror Knights in Oslo
under Breivik and their intellectual framework of religion were looked into.
Today, the strategy and tactics of the Terror Knights is being examined more
closely.

The hierarchy of the Terror Knights is divided into small cells with as
little as only one member that may act alone or in small groups. The rationale
for small and autonomous groups is to reduce the chances of detection. These
cells are planned as guerrilla fighters who attack political parties and
individuals that the Terror Knights call traitors. These targets support
multiculturalism, respectively are tolerant toward Muslim immigrants.

The compendium 2083 – A European Declaration of Independence contains
detailed instructions on how Terror Knights organize themselves, obtain
financing, avoid detection, and cooperate with criminal organizations such as
biker gangs in order to acquire fire arms. The compendium contains criteria for
the selection of fire arms and ammunition as well instructions on how to either
purchase or self-produce full body armor in specific Terror Knight style. The
manufacturing process of explosives and the selection of the respective
chemicals finds a welcome host in the book. Some of the instructions seem rather
theoretical than stemming from experience, in particular those in respect to
nuclear and biological means. This is not to downplay the dangers of the manual.
At its worst, the manual contains a list of infrastructure targets, target
organizations (annual gatherings for journalists) and individuals (Heidi Klum,
Elin Nordgren, Madonna, Brangelina, Lady Gaga etc.), the latter never safe from
possible violence out of nowhere.

The Terror Knights work on a long-term and slow moving time table. In doing
so, they seem to promise an increasing number of attacks until Western regimes
capitulate to their demands. Until then, they promise not to deploy a nuclear
strategy (also laid out in detail in the 2083 compendium).

“The PCCTS, Knights Templar will allow all Western
European regimes to capitulate to our demands and we are hereby giving them a
deadline which is January 1st, 2020. We will not initiate any nuclear power
plant attacks until the deadline has passed (we will instead focus on
non-nuclear attacks until then). However, if the Western European
multiculturalist regimes do not fully implement our demands – stop the European
genocide, deport all Muslims from Europe and ban multiculturalism as an
anti-European hate ideology – by this date, we are committed to effectuate ALL
necessary measures in order to stop them from annihilating everything European.”

The Terror Knights are not only Christian extremists that reject Islam to
the point of deportation, they are also white supremacists, in the style of
Hitler’s Arian race, here Nordic-Germanic. According to the Terror Knights, the
tribe of Nordic-Germanics is 200 million strong.

“There are many non-Nordic that try to mimic Nordic beauty by dying
their hair blond and wearing contacts. So why not offer our children the actual
genetical gift instead, through repro-genetics, rather than spending thousands
of Euro and thousands of hours on make-up trying to mimic the Nordic
ideal?”

Tactically, supremacy policies find open ears in those that feel superior
to others. It is a dangerous gamble with race that has been successfully
deployed throughout history. Supremacist examples are readily at hand: the
Jewish Chosen People with the Levites as their super supremacists (the modern
Ultra-Orthodox Jews), the papacy of the Catholic Church, the Romans as the
leaders of the world, the Ku Klux Klan, the Imperialists and Colonialists, the
Arian master race under Hitler, the Yamato in Japan, the Bilderbergs, Bush’s
Axis of Evil, etc. Of course, the Terror Knights deny any relationship to
national socialists, thinking that Hitler was a traitor to the Germanic tribes.

“Hitler had the military capabilities necessary to liberate Jerusalem
and the nearby provinces from Islamic occupation. He could have easily worked
out an agreement with the UK and France to liberate the ancient Jewish Christian
lands with the purpose of giving the Jews back their ancestral lands. The UK and
France would perhaps even contribute to such a campaign in an effort to support
European reconciliation. The deportation of the Jews from Germany wouldn’t be
popular but eventually, the Jewish people would regard Hitler as a hero because
he returned the Holy land to them.

Were the majority of the German and European Jews disloyal? Yes, at
least the so called liberal Jews, similar to the liberal Jews today that opposes
nationalism/Zionism and supports multiculturalism. Jews that support
multiculturalism today are as much of a threat to Israel and Zionism (Israeli
nationalism) as they are to us. So let us fight together with Israel, with our
Zionist brothers against all anti-Zionists, against all cultural
Marxists/multiculturalists. Conservative Jews were loyal to Europe and should
have been rewarded. Instead, he just targeted them all… So, are the current Jews
in Europe and US disloyal? The multiculturalist (nation-wrecking) Jews ARE while
the conservative Jews ARE NOT. Aprox. 75% of European/US Jews support
multiculturalism while aprox. 50% of Israeli Jews does the same. This shows very
clearly that we must embrace the remaining loyal Jews as brothers rather than
repeating the mistake of the NSDAP. Whenever I discuss the Middle East issue
with a national socialist he presents the anti-Israeli and pro-Palestine
argument. He always seem unaware of the fact that his propaganda is hurting
Israeli nationalists (who want to deport the Muslims from Israel) and that he is
in fact helping the Israeli cultural Marxists/multiculturalists with his
argumentation.”

The Terror Knights simply bend history to their own liking and deliver the
argument that Hitler’s “mistake” was to having failed in ethnically cleansing
Palestine for the Ultra-Orthodox Jews. Cynically speaking, the Terror Knights
are terrorists of a superior intellect than Hitler was.

They aim to radicalizing Muslims by attacking their communities, hence
provoking violent responses and increased polarization. The desired outcome is
Muslims calling for jihad. It is remarkable that the Terror Knights did not
choose a religious but rather two political targets, the location of the prime
minister and a political youth camp. The choice of debut targets and their
tactical goal seem to be somewhat disconnected, and this is the good news.
Rather than fostering a radicalization of Muslims, it will create
inter-religious compassion and an accelerated drive to secularization. Muslims
will hardly react with a counter attack upon Christian targets.

The debut attacks were geared quite successfully toward propaganda. Part of
this success is a manual that has probably found a widespread (extreme
right-wing) readership within days. Quite intelligently, it was created as an
“open source” manual with the intent that future authors or a community of
authors would improve its content. While one might ridicule the manual now,
within two years or so the ridicule might be no more.

Tomorrow, the political agenda of the Terror Knights will be
examined.

Oslo Terror Knights: Intellectual Framework

Yesterday, we looked at the grand goals of the Oslo Terror Knights. Today,
their intellectual framework is examined more closely. The terrorist Breivik has
not attacked Oslo as an act of insanity or as a lone right-wing extremist. He
rather acted out of a deep religious conviction, a delusion of faith that led
him to believe that he, as a Knight Templar, needed to rescue the Christian West
from a Muslim jihad.

The Terror Knights recognized that the conservative values of the Catholic
Church serve a right-wing cause much better than the more fragmented Protestant
churches─this is all the more notable as Breivik is Protestant Christian. The
Terror Knights think that the Protestant Church cannot survive in the current
European society as it loses out by placing freedom of choice over duty and
commitment to religion. “Devotees of the Church demand moral purity,
self-discipline and restraint. Real religion requires self-discipline.” They
view the Catholic Church as “the rock of tradition,” which sets it apart from
the Protestant faith. According to the Terror Knights and following Catholic
doctrine, “only Rome can lay claim to apostolic succession dating back to
Peter, the rock.” This, of course, requires the uncritical acceptance of
Catholic Church history. Opposing the Protestant notion of guidance through
Scripture alone, the Terror Knights claim that an infallible church needs to
“guide to the meaning of Scripture.” The Protestant Church has no such
right, and it is this lack of authority that must lead to its disintegration.

“The Protestant liberal Church defends and encourages the ordination of
women, divorce, abortion, the mass scale distribution of contraceptive pills and
contributes to glorify homosexuality (including the ordination of homosexuals).
When the Church resembles a minimalistic shopping mall, the female priest wears
jeans, defends abortion and the mass scale distribution of contraceptive pills,
defends the Jihad against the Israelis and lives a sexually active life; then
what is the point? We must go back to our Catholic roots.”

They also claim that the “Reformed and Evangelical Protestant churches
are missing out on an essential part, the fullness and richness of high church
liturgy. […] Many new Protestant churches lack the Aesthetic divinity and
dignity a church should have. Many of these churches resemble minimalistic
shopping malls, some even look like bomb shelters.” One might think that the
Terror Knights would be altogether happy with the current culture of Catholic
Rome. This is not so:

“Today’s European Church leaders (both Catholic and
Protestant) are mostly internationalists/multiculturalists and socially and
theologically on the left (obviously Protestants more so than Catholics). They
are more concerned with the welfare of Jihadists, the so called Palestinians in
particular then the persecuted Christians around the world. They ignore
persecuted Christian minorities in the Middle East and in Africa.

The future European Church must focus less on proletarian consciousness
and should adapt more of the Calvinistic views relating to national and local
industriousness (with the exception of globalist capitalism). Christian leftism
is ultimately based on a mistaken theological premise: that God has a
‘preferential love for the poor.’ Scripture, however, informs us that God is no
respecter of persons. As such, true Christianity refuses to romanticize either
wealth or poverty (Prov. 30:8-9).”

As any religious organization, the Terror Knights pick and choose from the
scriptural stock of verses. The book The Great Leap-Fraud – Social Economics of
Religious Terrorism lays out in detail how the Torah is in the service of
industriousness while the Apocrypha and the Gospel nurtre a refusal to partake
in the Roman economy as a means to bring down their hated rulers. This social
rejection is self-inflicted poverty in a terrible display of hatred against
mankind. It has led to millions of deaths in perpetual humanitarian disasters.
For Christians of the Terror Knights, it boils down to this: “You can’t serve
both God and Money” (Matthew 6:24). It may be noted that entertainment
(laughter) and proper nutrition (being full) was also a target of the Christian
faith.

“It is easier for a camel to go through a needle’s eye than for a rich
man to enter into the Kingdom of God” (Mark 10:25). The Gospels condemn
money altogether. There can be no doubt as to the negative impact that
Christianity would have on the development of a nation’s prosperity and spirit
to progress if religion would again be strong enough to control cultural and
ethical norms of societies. As history shows, such a philosophy proved
disastrous. It brought forth the rejection of anything that had made the Roman
society successful. Moreover, the Gospel talks of economic collectivism and
poverty by choice: “All who believed were together, and had all things in
common. They sold their possessions and goods, and distributed them to all,
according as anyone had need” (Acts 1:44). Only an adaptation of the
doctrines to modern secular realities has led to the Western belief that
Christianity is neutral toward prosperity or even positive. However, the Terror
Knights aim at resolving the paradox of Catholic tradition combined with the
“national” pursuit of prosperity by simply denying its core doctrines. At the
same time, they would keep the hand of the church out of science and technology.

The promise of the Terror Knights is that the pope would be the ultimate
Knight of Christendom, given that he would be a “just” and conservative crusader
pope. As the Catholic Pope would chose Christian unity over diversity, they
think that he could appeal to the masses. The ultimate Knight of Christendom is
envisioned as the religious, cultural, and moral authority for all Christians.
“We need Christian leaders who are willing to call for defensive Crusades
[‘defensive’ is whatever the church says it is] if any of our Christian
brothers are threatened by Jihad in the future.” With all this, the Terror
Knights imagine to keep Europe predominantly secular, avoiding a theocracy. How
exactly that separation of authorities would work is left open. “The Church
will once again be allowed to do what it was intended to do; to propagate and
maintain cultural unity through pre-defined rituals and celebrations.” For a
terror organization that aims at all-out religious war, Inquisition, torture,
sectarian bloodshed, genocide, racism, etc. seems to be an acceptable price to
pay. As in the good old times of intellectual happiness during the Middle Age,
children are set to be brought up with the “correct” doctrines, and government
policies are meant to return to propagating cultural conservative policies. The
route through the hearts of the children who do not know any better will prove
particularly fruitful in bringing forth a new generation of
fundamentalists.

The Terror Knights are determined to not only wage a crusade against Islam
but also to bring civil war to Europe until the “multiculturalist regimes” of
Western Europe capitulate. “They will be unwilling to surrender, as we are
unwilling to surrender. Europe will burn once more and rivers from the blood of
patriots, tyrants and traitors will flow through the streets. However, a new
European cultural renaissance will be born from the ashes.” Moreover, they
are willing to bring war to the Middle East. They are rushing to help Israel in
“deporting all Muslim Syrians” (the Palestinians) from the Gaza strip, the West
bank and Jerusalem, the latter coming under Christian-Jewish joint
administration. Certainly, the Ultra-Orthodox Jews will have something to say
against that objective. Yet, they would probably embrace the Terror Knights’
idea to rebuild the Third Temple, destroying the al-Aqsa Mosque and the Dome of
the Rock in its wake.

Waking from the dormant threat of Christian fundamentalism in Norway, the
motifs of the Terror Knights are based on religion, not on insanity. It would be
all to convenient to declare any religious atrocity as acts of insanity. The
Christian hatred toward mosque construction projects in America or the annual
clashes of Catholics and Protestants in Ireland speak volumes about the dangers
and powers of religious delusions. The ideas of the Terror Knights were sparked
by disenchantment from the Protestant Church (and by political paralyzation) and
fueled by the beliefs fostered in the Judaic Scriptures. Their role models are
the Medieval Knights Templar─Christian crusaders.

Tomorrow, the strategy of the Terror Knights will be looked at more
closely.

Breivik: Religious Terror Knights

Talking about Breivik makes Breivik a winner. The chatter
inevitably spreads his message of hatred: anti-U.N., anti-E.U.,
anti-globalization, anti-internationalism, anti-multiculturalism, anti-Muslim,
pro-Christian but counter-Reformist, and pro-Jewish. The intellectual
foundation of the Christian Breivik terror cell is the Bible, his heroes are
the Medieval Knights Templar of the crusades (after which this terror
organization is named), and his enemies are all, who dare to welcome Muslims,
the Koran, or Sharia law into the West.

The goal of the Terror Knights in Oslo was to launch a propaganda machinery with the greatest possible media impact. Its distributive success is astonishing. The Achilles Heel  of the propaganda is that it spans 1500 pages of anti-Muslim and anti-everything ranting from various authors, including American sources, that are hard to digest, even for the accustomed reader. However, right-wing organizations and religious extremists of all colors, in particular Christian anti-Muslims and white supremacists will welcome an instruction manual that serves as a guide from building terrorist cells, cooking explosives, stitching body armor, to evading possible detection.

Catholics and Ultra-Orthodox Jews (will) appear to condemn the attacks. In their hearts, the horror is for others to weep over. The Terror Knights’ organization calls for a unified European Church under Catholic doctrines and popes as well as the annexation of the Palestinian territories by Israel. It is an unusual twist of a religious terror cell to recognize the possible power that a unified Christianity in Europe could harbor in order to pursue just about any religious agenda.

The Terror Knights’ organization has three primary
functions:

1. To act as a pan-European Crusader Movement for the banishment of Islam from Europe
2. To act as an Indigenous Rights Movement; to serve the interest of the European ethnic groups and to destroy cultural Marxism/multiculturalism (leftist Marxism is viewed by the Knights Templar as the dominant political stream in Europe)
3. To act as a War Crimes Tribunal

The general idea of the Christian Knights Templar is to provoke the Muslim communities in the West to take more extreme positions and be drawn into violence. They hope for counter-attacks against Christians in Muslim countries.  Their reasoning is that a European concept of multiculturalism invites Muslims to eroding the cultural fabric of
Christian Europe, which, the authors of 2083-A European Declaration of Independence claims, “is the very definition of tyranny.” The authors believe that “Europe should strive for: A cultural conservative approach where monoculturalism, moral, the nuclear family, a free market, support for Israel and our Christian cousins of the east, law and order and Christendom itself must be central aspects (unlike now). Islam must be re-classified as a political ideology and the Quran and the Hadith banned as the genocidal political tools they are.“ In their pursuit, the Terror Kinghts call not only for the banning of the parallel Sharia laws but for the deportation of Muslims from Europe and other Christian territories.

In a repeat of historic religious atrocities, the authors propose a radical assimilation policy for Muslims in Europe:

• Forced baptism
• Forced church attendance
• Forced name change to Christian names
• Banning of Arabic or other Muslim mother tongues (Farsi, Urdu, Somali, etc.)
• Demolishing or converting of all mosques and Islamic centers
• Demolishing or modifying of all Islamic/Arab-style buildings/artwork
• Banning of Islamic celebrations
• Measures against demographic warfare (limit of birth rates for Muslims)
• Prohibition of correspondence with alien Muslims
• Prohibition of travels to Muslim territories

It is a provocation of an all-out clash of civilizations through anti-immigration terrorism. In order to achieve that, the Christian Terror Knights promote a deliberate radicalization with “virtues such as the willingness to martyr oneself for the cause, the exercise of discretion, voluntary poverty and devoted obedience” to their principles. By doing so, the Terror Knights seem to overlook that they deploy nothing less than the same mechanisms of hatred that are built into Islam. By deploying a system of martyrdom, as invented in the book of Maccabees, young Christian terrorists will be seen with explosives wrapped around their bellies. Terrorist organizations are much cheaper to run and could be as effective as an army. The difference is that the Terror Knights utilize the intellectual framework of the Christian Bible for the justification of violence─not the Koran.

As laid out in The Great Leap-Fraud – Social Economics of Religious Terrorism, Jews, Christians, and Muslims adapt their creeds to the opportunities of a given socio-political environment. When expedient, the Judaic Scriptures serve as a model for peace. When the intent is ruling through dividing, bringing governments down through passive aggression, launching crusades or jihad, the Torah, the Hebrew Bible, the Gospel, and the Koran lend the fodder to stir the necessary policies of hatred. Despite the decade-long propaganda effort, Christians know that Islam’s history is not so peaceful. Likewise, Muslims know that the Christian past is everything but offering the left cheek when the right is struck. Both know that the Jewish history is prototypical for two millennia of genocide, terrorism, racism, treachery,  etc. in the name of a better cause: the redemption of Israel for the Chosen People. Each of them individually refuses to acknowledge that their own creed is no better than the others─social rejection and terror.

Tomorrow, we will look more closely into the intellectual framework of the Christian Terror Knights.
