DP111: When The West Gets It's Ass Out Of The Middle East We Can Begin To Clean Up The Problem At Home

DP111 is a anti-Jihad commenter. He's been around in this fight longer than me, if I am not mistaken. I began writing publicly in March 2004. I don't remember him not being around.

Anyway, I read this interesting comment from him over at the Vlad Tepes blog.

The comment begins by discussing the subject of whether it is haram for Muslims to emigrate to non-Muslim countries simply to make more money:

A prominent Calgary imam, Syed Soharwardy of the Islamic Supreme Council of Canada, recently declared that many Muslims should go back to their Muslim-majority homelands. 
It is against Islam, he said, for Muslims to migrate to non-Muslim countries for the purpose of economic betterment.
He is right. Around 5 years ago, a leading French imam said the same. The statement relies on several factors 
1. Muslims are allowed to emigrate to non-Muslim countries if there exists a good possibility that they can, with time, make the non-Muslim country adopt sharia as the legal code. 
2. If the possibility seems to be receding, then it is not acceptable that Muslims are subject to Infidel laws. The danger also exists that Muslim children, particularly Muslim girls, will start to leave Islam, under the legal protection afforded by them by the Infidel state. Thus immigration to a Infidel state starts to harm Islam – which is not acceptable. 
Such a state of affairs also starts to affect Muslim countries, where the young may get infected by their relatives visiting from the West. 
So far our policy after 9/11, has been to destabilise, and economically and socially destroy one Muslim country after another, using any pretext we get away with. As our own polity is increasingly wary of direct intervention, we have adopted the policy of supporting al Qaeda etal as a tool to do the same.. 
This policy has come unstuck in Syria because Russia has interests in Syria. But I’m sure we will return to Syria in 5 to 10 years. The strategic policy adopted by the US and the UK, has a 50 year life span at the least, and will continue until Islamic countries are how should I put it, immunised to Islam. 
As long as our troops were in Muslim countries, we adopted the quite reasonable policy of appeasing Muslims at home, just to have peace at home. This was very evident in the US and the UK, who had the largest contingents of soldiers in Muslim countries. When our troops are back, a more vigorous policy is going to be adopted to Islam at home. This is already evident in the case of the “burqa” – France, Belgium, Italy, Ticino in Switzerland, and now even a debate in the UK.
