Nation of Infidels

A Flying Fish Video

A reminder of what exactly we're doing here and why. Not that any Infidel I know needs it. But show it to some of the dhimmi's you know.

Those aren't fucking cap guns these kids are holding.

(That type of innocence, that world, playing cap guns in my grandmom & grandpop's backyard, seems like centuries ago anymore.)

Excellent work midnight rider...
when I'm telling things like that people can't understand the imminent treat.
Just a comment: America's criminal foreign policy during Bush administration gives the right to many islamists to say that they have to retaliate for this stupid (oil) war in Iraq. The thing is however, that it is not only America, but Europe and other countries under attack.
I feel very anxious as I live in Greece the last state belonging to the civilised war. USA doesn't understand that and consider Turkey and Pakistan as their "strategic" allies!!! Jesus Christ!!!

PCC & Jdamn13 post two readily recognizable contradictions boldly demonstrated by 'moderate' moslems on any given day. Why people tend to dismiss such blatant contradictions is damn frustrating (perhaps it's one of 5 ways your brain messes with your head)or simply cowardice.

The entire belief system of Islam is based on such contradictions - believe it or else. Contradictions identified within Islamic doctrine as following the principles of abrogation or dualism.

Bill Warner, the director of the Center for the Study of Political Islam (CSPI) and spokesman for PoliticalIslam.com defines this contradiction as dualism.

Quote: "The doctrine of both religious and political Islam is based on dualism and submission. The religious doctrine is of no concern to a kafir. It is the politics that concerns kafirs. Dualism is the key to understanding Islam. On the surface many parts of the Koran contradict each other. The usual explanation is that the older, nicer verses are abrogated by the later verses. But in reality all of the Koran is true since it comes from the only god, Allah. Allah is perfection, and therefore, the contradictory statements in the Koran are all true. This violates Aristotelian kafir logic, but it defines the Islamic dualistic logic. In Islam two contradictory things can both be true at the same time. So for every one of those statistically insignificant “good” verses, each one is weak, and the stronger harsh and violent verses are stronger. Contradictions are integral to Islamic logic. 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.


Robert Spencer of JihadWatch.org documents the principle of abrogation in ISLAM 101:

Quote: " known as "abrogation." The principle of abrogation -- al-naskh wa al-mansukh (the abrogating and the abrogated) -- directs that verses revealed later in Muhammad's career "abrogate" -- i.e., cancel and replace -- earlier ones whose instructions they may contradict. Thus, passages revealed later in Muhammad's career, in Medina, overrule passages revealed earlier, in Mecca. The Quran itself lays out the principle of abrogation:

2:106. Whatever a Verse (revelation) do We {Allah} abrogate or cause to be forgotten, We bring a better one or similar to it. Know you not that Allah is able to do all things?

It seems that 2:106 was revealed in response to skepticism directed at Muhammad that Allah's revelations were not entirely consistent over time. Muhammad's rebuttal was that "Allah is able to do all things" -- even change his mind. To confuse matters further, though the Quran was revealed to Muhammad sequentially over some twenty years' time, it was not compiled in chronological order. When the Quran was finally collated into book form under Caliph Uthman, the suras were ordered from longest to shortest with no connection whatever to the order in which they were revealed or to their thematic content. In order to find out what the Quran says on a given topic, it is necessary to examine the other Islamic sources that give clues as to when in Muhammad's lifetime the revelations occurred. Upon such examination, one discovers that the Meccan suras, revealed at a time when the Muslims were vulnerable, are generally benign; the later Medinan suras, revealed after Muhammad had made himself the head of an army, are bellicose.

Let us take, for example, 50:45 and Sura 109, both revealed in Mecca:

50:45. We know of best what they say; and you (O Muhammad) are not a tyrant over them (to force them to Belief). But warn by the Qur'an, him who fears My Threat.

109:1. Say (O Muhammad to these Mushrikun and Kafirun): "O Al-Kafirun (disbelievers in Allah, in His Oneness, in His Angels, in His Books, in His Messengers, in the Day of Resurrection, and in Al-Qadar {divine foreordainment and sustaining of all things}, etc.)!
109:2. "I worship not that which you worship,
109:3. "Nor will you worship that which I worship.
109:4. "And I shall not worship that which you are worshipping.
109:5. "Nor will you worship that which I worship.
109:6. "To you be your religion, and to me my religion (Islamic Monotheism)."

Then there is this passage revealed just after the Muslims reached Medina and were still vulnerable:

2:256. There is no compulsion in religion. Verily, the Right Path has become distinct from the wrong path. Whoever disbelieves in Taghut {idolatry} and believes in Allah, then he has grasped the most trustworthy handhold that will never break. And Allah is All-Hearer, All-Knower.

In contrast, take 9:5, commonly referred to as the "Verse of the Sword", revealed toward the end of Muhammad's life:

9:5. Then when the Sacred Months (the 1st, 7th, 11th, and 12th months of the Islamic calendar) have passed, then kill the Mushrikun {unbelievers} wherever you find them, and capture them and besiege them, and prepare for them each and every ambush. But if they repent and perform As-Salat (Iqamat-as-Salat {the Islamic ritual prayers}), and give Zakat {alms}, then leave their way free. Verily, Allah is Oft-Forgiving, Most Merciful.

Having been revealed later in Muhammad?s life than 50:45, 109, and 2:256, the Verse of the Sword abrogates their peaceful injunctions in accordance with 2:106. Sura 8, revealed shortly before Sura 9, reveals a similar theme:

8:39. And fight them until there is no more Fitnah (disbelief and polytheism: i.e. worshipping others besides Allah) and the religion (worship) will all be for Allah Alone [in the whole of the world]. But if they cease (worshipping others besides Allah), then certainly, Allah is All-Seer of what they do.

8:67. It is not for a Prophet that he should have prisoners of war (and free them with ransom) until he had made a great slaughter (among his enemies) in the land. You desire the good of this world (i.e. the money of ransom for freeing the captives), but Allah desires (for you) the Hereafter. And Allah is All-Mighty, All-Wise.

9:29. Fight against those who believe not in Allah, nor in the Last Day, nor forbid that which has been forbidden by Allah and His Messenger and those who acknowledge not the religion of truth (i.e. Islam) among the people of the Scripture (Jews and Christians), until they pay the Jizya with willing submission, and feel themselves subdued.

9:33. It is He {Allah} Who has sent His Messenger (Muhammad) with guidance and the religion of truth (Islam), to make it superior over all religions even though the Mushrikun (polytheists, pagans, idolaters, disbelievers in the Oneness of Allah) hate (it).

The Quran's commandments to Muslims to wage war in the name of Allah against non-Muslims are unmistakable. They are, furthermore, absolutely authoritative as they were revealed late in the Prophet's career and so cancel and replace earlier instructions to act peaceably. Without knowledge of the principle of abrogation, Westerners will continue to misread the Quran and misdiagnose Islam as a "religion of peace."

Excellent video. Thanks for posting it.

I do think we need to add an important videos list on the sidebar. I'll get to that.

Pastorius said...

HRW,
I wish you would consider becoming an IBA contributor.

midnight rider said...

HRW -- I'll second Pasto on that. You're always insightful, write really well and, quite frankly, I've always been a little surprised you WEREN'T an IBA contributor.

midnight rider said...

HRW -- would you do it if Pasto throws in a bottle of Wild Turkey?

('cuz ya can't have mine ;>)

Pastorius said...

I think HRW is reticent about being associated with us drunkards, lunatics, and freaks.

;-)

Pastorius said...

HRW,
I'll make you babe of the week, if that will seal the deal.

LOL

midnight rider said...

Oh Oh Oh yes yes yes Babe of the Week submit photo please to Pasto, Sir Publius and Shiva (I trust their judgement).

But we're such benevolent drunkards lunatics and freaks.

Anonymous said...

Gosh, to think I almost missed this!

You boys gave me one hearty giggle! It'd take something quite a bit stronger than MR's entire lifetime supply of Wild Turkey to convince ya'all this old gal is a contender for Babe of the week! LOL!

re: HRW,
I wish you would consider becoming an IBA contributor.

I'm content to send you links and post comments for now. I'm greatful and sensitive to enormous sacrifice in time and effort of each and every IBA contributor and commenter.

FWIW, Ya'all drunkards, lunatics, and freaks made my day. ;D
