The Great Western Conspiracy

Reuters via Clarity and Resolve:

Two women slip into the polio vaccination centre at the Khyber Teaching Hospital in Peshawar, a baby hidden in a shawl. The women are scared and seem desperate to leave as soon as possible.

"My husband doesn't know we are here. He does not want his children immunised against polio, because he says this is a western conspiracy to force birth control in a hidden form on people. But I want my son to be safe," says Ajmeena Khan, 25.

Polio vaccination = Sterilization. This insanity permeates other areas as well. My experience:

One day, I overheard a conversation between my aunt and family. She had come back from a mosque. She told us about a foreign lady who had come to teach birth control to women near the mosque. She said that the Westerners were afraid of Muslims. This talk of birth control was a scheme by the Westerners to keep the number of Muslims low in the world. I knew that this statement wasn’t right but kept my mouth shut. By the way, this aunt had seven children. I am sure that Western lady must have been petrified with fear because of her.

When the West does something wrong, Muslims say, "Hey, what do you expect from the dirty kufaar?"

When the West does something right, Muslims say, "Don't be fooled! It's really a CONSPIRACY!"

You see, the infidels are incapable of doing good.

Isaac you've stumbled upon yet another example of muhammeds science (or is it art?) of dualism:

http://frontpagemag.com/Articles/ReadArticle.asp?ID=26769"

Our first clue about the dualism is in the Koran, which is actually two books, the Koran of Mecca (early) and the Koran of Medina (later). The insight into the logic of the Koran comes from the large numbers of contradictions in it. On the surface, Islam resolves these contradictions by resorting to “abrogation”. This means that the verse written later supersedes the earlier verse. But in fact, since the Koran is considered by Muslims to be the perfect word of Allah, both verses are sacred and true. The later verse is “better,” but the earlier verse cannot be wrong since Allah is perfect. This is the foundation of dualism. Both verses are “right.” Both sides of the contradiction are true in dualistic logic. The circumstances govern which verse is used.

This dualistic logic filters down through cultural and social structures . . .on every level.

Behavior like this, if you think about it, is like putting chlorine into the gene pool. It's a mass Darwin Award nomination.
