"We're At War, Get It Through Your Head", Trump Doubles Down During Combative Follow Up Interviews

Tyler Durden's picture




 

12 hours after his dramatic campaign statement to shut out Muslims arrivals into the US, Donald Trump doubled down and in a series of interviews early on Tuesday, he repeatedly told anchors such as CNN's Chris Cuomo that "we're at war - get it through your head" in his latest heated exchange, during which he reminded America how quickly people have forgotten "World Trade Center #1 and World Trade Center #2."

One thing that Trump did stress throughout the media blitz is that his plan to prevent Muslims from entering the U.S. was "temporary." and in a follow up interview on ABC's "Good Morning America" he clarified that American Muslims living abroad could return to the U.S., following conflicting statements by his campaign yesterday: when asked if Trump's proposal applied to U.S. citizens living abroad, a Trump spokesperson had told The Hill on Monday that Trump's proposal applied to "everyone."

In the aftermath of yesterday's announcement, there has been a surge of media outlets comparing Trump to Hitler (as seen below).

George Stephanopoulos asked Trump during the ABC interview whether the candidate was bothered by the increasing number of such comparisons, to which Trump responded with a simple, "No." 

As could have been expected, Trump's interview  on MSNBC's "Morning Joe" turned combative when co-host Joe Scarborough tried to interject a question, while the real estate mogul continued to speak during the phone call-in interview.  As the Hill reports, Scarborough threatened to send the interview to a break if Trump didn't allow him to ask a question. After Trump didn't relent, Scarborough instructed producers to cut to commercials.

After the break, Trump discussed comparisons to former President Franklin Delano Roosevelt. Questioned about whether he was proposing internment camps like the ones FDR created for the Japanese, Trump said, "I am not proposing that. This is a whole different thing," he added later during another combative exchange.

It wasn't just the leftist media that attacked Trump - so did the GOP, where rivals blasted Trump, including former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush who called it "unhinged," as well as the Republican party chairs in the early voting states of Iowa, New Hampshire and South Carolina. The White House and Democratic presidential front-runner Hillary Clinton also panned the idea as un-American and unconstitutional.

Despite the condemnations, Trump said on MSNBC that "we have to get our hands around a very serious problem" adding that "not everybody has condemned" his comments.

"We're At War, Get It Through Your Head"

Yes you are at war, in Muslim homelands, and you are making fortunes for 1% of your population by doing so.

The reason you are being attacked by muslims is because you are at war in their homeland.

Get out now, and stop it, or spend your lives cowering in fear for what you have done.

If you did this in Christian lands you would be attacked by Christian terrorists, and quite right too.

It really isn't that difficult. This guy is another Hitler.

'At least Trump acknowledges the clear and present danger Islam poses to America.'

Will you acknowledge the clear and present danger that America is currently posing to Islam, and has doen for years now?

Will you acknowledge that America caused this problem in the first place by invading foreign lands, or will you stand behind the 'religion is the cause ' bullshit?

Trump seems to be pulling the entire argument in one direction, which is similar to what LaPierre did after the whole Sandy Hook thing.

He also seems to be making statements based on how various sentiments poll with the PEOPLE, and not what propagandists on the left or right are pushing in the MSM.

Very smart move.

I have to wonder, would the furor over Trumps comments have been worse if he had said:

"We are engaged in war with radical islam. This is not a military war since they have no military worthy of the name. Rather, this is a war of civilian populations against civilian populations. Government cannot protect you in an open society which is what we have and is so much better than what they have. As such, the only way to protect civilians is to arm free citizens in an open society to the teeth. Therefore, if I am elected president, I will fight against gun control and attempt to allow all American citizens to be armed to the teeth."

Gun ownership actually spans both parties in the U.S., that would have united the poplace and reaffirmed basic rights. Instead, Trump only said something that is guaranteed to draw divisions between people.

He probably could've done better by limiting his comments to new immigrants, yes, instead of including US citizens. However, I think he realizes that people have the attention span of a flea and can temper his comments after getting the nomination, IF he does. I'm sure he's looking at the poll numbers to see how far he can push his proposals, so I guess we'll see.

ISIS has targeted refugee program to enter US, Homeland Security chairman says

“Intelligence officials have determined that Islamic extremists have explored using the refugee program to enter the United States, the head of the House Homeland Security Committee said on Monday. “

“ISIS members in Syria have attempted to exploit it to get into the United States,” McCaul said during a speech at the National Defense University.”

If you want to fight against the establishment, go set yourself on fucking fire on the US Capitol steps & do us all a fucking favor by sparing us your daily shill routine.

 

The plain fact of the fucking matter is, whether you like it or not, bitcoin has ZERO value unless it can 'catch a ride' on whatever sheeple percieve a notable FIAT currency's value to be at any given moment. The day all FIAT disappears, bitcoin disappears. So it has nothing to do with being establishment or anti-establishment.

Maybe Donnie is getting nervous of his own success in the polls, so now he decided to push the self destruct button?

In The Netherlands ("Holland" for y'all Americans) we have a similar clown: Geert Wilders. Every time he gets close to winning an election, he does something 'stupid,' loses a lot of voters and subsequently doesn't gain as much as previously predicted by the polls. That way he can continue to shout all sorts of bullshit from the sidelines instead of actually accepting any governmental responsibilities.

p.s. this doesn't mean that either Trump nor Wilder don't have any valid points though.

The CIA couldn't find three Latino's (Middle Eastern look) in the US and dress them all up in black, so that they would look more like the two "patsy's" that were shot?!

This whole "3-white-guys-did-it" conspiracy theory is too ridiculous for words, but I guess it suits the liberals/left for encouraging an engineered multicultural society as in Europe.

Ah - IDK if I'd call that article 100% anything:

"The 223 weapon or bullets fired from AR15 – an extremely powerful weapon -- would blow someone’s arm off, it is not going to make a small hole. . . ”

 That's complete bullshit right there.  5.56mm NATO can cause horrific wounds if/when the round fragments properly, but it's certainly not a given. 

Here's somebody getting nailed by what I understand to be an M-249 SAW (a 5.56mm NATO-chambered weapon) for example:  http://www.apacheclips.com/boards/media/4745-An-oldie-but-a-goodie-blast...

You honed in on exactly the same line that I did. 223 don't make big holes, they cause catastrophic internal damage precisely because they are a high-powered small caliber and fragment and ricochet internally, they don't blow people's arms off. Gotta call bullshit on the entire article.

From where I am standing Trump is a political genius. I can't believe he hasn't run sooner.

 

He has positioned himself so that the GOP nomination is a choice; Trump or one of the other guys.

The anyone but Trump vote is totally divided between 3 or 4 candidates, and Trump is running around throwing social hand grenades that are completely shocking his opponents into disarray.

 

I will bet he uses a very different strategy if he gets to the Red v Blue, race for the presidency.

 

To win the GOP nomination he just has to dominate the airwaves and sow chaos amongst the other candidates, he has done this far far far more effectively that anyone I have ever seen going right back to the 60's.

 

To beat the democrats, I expect we will see the two dirtiest presidential campaigns of all time going head to head in an all out slugfest. Nothing will be off limits.

And then what? "Republicans to the rescue?" Wasn't it Bush Sr. who started this by invading Iraq, and Bush Jr. with his corrupt buddies (Von Rumsfeld, Dick Cheney) to finish the job daddy failed to complete?

Sure, Obama is an idiot, but is he any more (or less) an idiot than Bush Jr.? He's just another puppet, just like Trump (a 'self made' billionaire who owns a real estate empire financed by...BANKS!) will be a puppet of the big shadow government that really runs the world.

I think Trump could do himself a huge favor and just say "Let's put a stop to all immigration. A 10 year moratoriam". This country is in desperate need of jobs and citizens should not have to compete against low wage immigrants, legal or otherwise. This doesn't need to be a Muslim thing.

 

If Trump is reading: 

Didn't the jobs report yesterday indicate that over 300,000 jobs went to immigrants, whereas over 300,000 jobs were lost to US born citizens?

Yup, found it here ...

He will discover soon enough who it is behind the curtain driving these overlapping military operations and what they were really designed to facilitate. If he succeeds and wins then they will try to Jimmy Carter him with any untold number of false flags but I'm pretty sure he'll handle himself fine. Even if he can't I'm good with that.

"I notice you left out events like the world wars which had very little to do with Islam."

Uh, ok... not really sure what you are getting at...Are there other murderous political ideologies--like Comunism, say-- that have nothing to do with Islam? Well, yes. Not sure how that is relevant to the particular case of Islam.

Islam went into a dormancy period after the Muslim invasion of Western Europe was turned back at the gates of Vienna in 1683. Aside from the brutal genocides of Armenians (several millions) and Greeks (~1 million), or regional problems like the Barbary Pirates in the late 18th and early 19th centuries, the Muslims were largely kept in a box until the 1970s.

Now, the Islamic monster is out of the box again and attacking Western Europe and the US. The question is, what are we going to do about it?

OMFG, did Buckaroo Banzai just blame the Armenian genocide on Muslims?  Newsflash, Buck, the Young Turks were Donmeh crypto-Jews.  This is not new information.  This is why Hollywood in particular avoids ALL discussion of the Armenian genocide.  Did you know the Bolsheviks were also mostly Jewish?  The Holodomor was orchestrated by a man named Dzugashvili and Kaganovich (Jewish)????  Who financed the 2nd World War?  Muslims?  LOL.

Also, did you forget the Ottoman Empire was both Islamic AND Orthodox?  The entire Balkans were under Ottoman control, and yet, there is only one Muslim country in the Balkans today (Albania).  Kind of blows the 'Muslim invasion turned back at the gates of Vienna' on its head, doesn't it?

For you though, of course this changes nothing.  Rabid islamophobia must remain rabid islamophobia.

To call the Crusades a revenge/counter attack is historical revisionism at its finest.   The area (Syrian coast, etc) was especially important location on the Silk Road.  Europeans wanted a cut.  They invaded and carved out a niche.  They justified it by saying "this has always been ours", "we are just taking it back", "they attacked us first", same as a war or invasion would be justified these days.

Find me an original document from the year 1200 and I will show you a forgery.  Because everything 800 years old has been... EDITED!  Or, in more pc terms, ' the documents had to be copied as the original scroll was deteriorating'.  And we all know they copy the documents word for word, right?   No one would use such an opportunity for political motives, right?  I am just a really smart 21st century educated peon, the folks back then could never have conceived a deception such as what I am outlining?

If that upsets you, I can only imagine how you feel about my opinion that the 'Reconquista' was a bunch of bullshit too.  Calling the 'Conquista' just doesn't have the same ring to it, does it?

Why was the city of Acre so important, if the objective was 'the Holy Land'?  Because its nonsense, they wanted a port, that was on the western end of the Silk Road. Tyre, Acre, Antioch, these are all port cities, on the final leg of the Silk Road, before it hits the Mediterranean!  A rudimentary understanding of trade would reveal to you that prices would go WAY UP after this leg of the journey.  If you controlled the ports, you gained that margin.  If you did not, you paid the retail price.  Retail vs wholesale, for spices, silk, all sorts of exotic goods...

The fundamental tenets of Islam itself are not compatible with freedom and liberty. Arabs should be welcome, but not Muslims. 

O believers make war on the infidels (non-Muslims) who dwell around you, let them find harshness in you” - Quran 9:123

“When the sacred months are over, kill the unbelievers wherever you find them” – Quran 9:5

“Fight them until unbelief is no more and Allah's religion reigns supreme” - Q 2:193

“Fight against those of the book (Christians and Jews) as believe neither in Allah nor in the last day…and do not embrace the true faith” - Q 9:29

“Fighting is obligatory for you (Muslims), even if you dislike it” - Q 2:216

Freedom of religion should always be upheld, but this isn't religion, It's a death cult from the dark ages, not needed or wanted in the west. We have enough problems.

  • A man or a woman who acts as a medium or fortuneteller shall be put to death by stoning; they have no one but themselves to blame for their death.  (Leviticus 20:27 NAB)

  • A priest's daughter who loses her honor by committing fornication and thereby dishonors her father also, shall be burned to death.  (Leviticus 21:9 NAB)
  • Suppose you hear in one of the towns the LORD your God is giving you that some worthless rabble among you have led their fellow citizens astray by encouraging them to worship foreign gods.  In such cases, you must examine the facts carefully.  If you find it is true and can prove that such a detestable act has occurred among you, you must attack that town and completely destroy all its inhabitants, as well as all the livestock. [even kill the animals? WTF?] (Deuteronomy 13:13-19 NLT)
  • If your own full brother, or your son or daughter, or your beloved wife, or you intimate friend, entices you secretly to serve other gods, whom you and your fathers have not known, gods of any other nations, near at hand or far away, from one end of the earth to the other: do not yield to him or listen to him, nor look with pity upon him, to spare or shield him, but kill him.  Your hand shall be the first raised to slay him; the rest of the people shall join in with you.  You shall stone him to death, because he sought to lead you astray from the Lord, your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt, that place of slavery.  And all Israel, hearing of this, shall fear and never do such evil as this in your midst.  (Deuteronomy 13:7-12 NAB) [kill others of different religions, sounds like it might be from the Koran. Nope, BIBLE]
  • Because the LORD considers it a holy day, anyone who works on the Sabbath must be put to death.'  (Exodus 31:12-15 NLT)
  • From there Elisha went up to Bethel.  While he was on his way, some small boys came out of the city and jeered at him.  "Go up baldhead," they shouted, "go up baldhead!"  The prophet turned and saw them, and he cursed them in the name of the Lord.  Then two shebears came out of the woods and tore forty two of the children to pieces.  (2 Kings 2:23-24 NAB)[that will show those kids!]
  •  When they came to the threshing floor of Nodan, Uzzah reached out his hand to the ark of God to steady it, for the oxen were making it tip.  But the Lord was angry with Uzzah; God struck him on that spot, and he died there before God.  (2 Samuel 6:3-7 NAB) [god was angry, poof! death]
  •  Anyone who is captured will be run through with a sword.  Their little children will be dashed to death right before their eyes.  Their homes will be sacked and their wives raped by the attacking hordes.  For I will stir up the Medes against Babylon, and no amount of silver or gold will buy them off.  The attacking armies will shoot down the young people with arrows.  They will have no mercy on helpless babies and will show no compassion for the children.  (Isaiah 13:15-18 NLT) [kill the babies and rape the women! its in the bible...]
  • 'I will punish what Amalek did to Israel when he barred his way as he was coming up from Egypt.  Go, now, attack Amalek, and deal with him and all that he has under the ban.  Do not spare him, but kill men and women, children and infants, oxen and sheep, camels and asses.'   (1 Samuel 15:2-3 NAB) [more baby and animals slaughtered 'so sath the lord']
  • The men of Israel withdrew through the territory of the Benjaminites, putting to the sword the inhabitants of the city, the livestock, and all they chanced upon.  Moreover they destroyed by fire all the cities they came upon.  (Judges 20:48 NAB)
  • (Moses) stood at the entrance to the camp and shouted, "All of you who are on the LORD's side, come over here and join me." And all the Levites came.  He told them, "This is what the LORD, the God of Israel, says: Strap on your swords! Go back and forth from one end of the camp to the other, killing even your brothers, friends, and neighbors."  The Levites obeyed Moses, and about three thousand people died that day.  Then Moses told the Levites, "Today you have been ordained for the service of the LORD, for you obeyed him even though it meant killing your own sons and brothers. Because of this, he will now give you a great blessing."  (Exodus 32:26-29 NLT) [no wonder the mafia was also 'religious']
  •  Then, with Micah's idols and his priest, the men of Dan came to the town of Laish, whose people were peaceful and secure.  They attacked and killed all the people and burned the town to the ground. (Judges 18:27-29 NLT)  (Note that God approves of this slaughter in verse 6.)

I know the christians will say, 'but but but thats the old testament, we follow the new testament.'
John 10:30 ESV - Jesus "I and the Father are one.”  ...one in the same you say?

either your god is bipolar, or he remains the same as he did in the old testament.  With attitude, forever pissed & lots of wanton vengeance... conveniently over looking the baby killing, raping and slaughter of animals that just happen to be in the wrong place at the wrong time? we'll focus on just the good stuff that doesnt sound crazy or make us look bad though...

who could forget
"The Inquisition

The Medieval Inquisition is a series of Inquisitions (Roman Catholic Church bodies charged with suppressing heresy) from around 1184, including the Episcopal Inquisition (1184-1230s) and later the Papal Inquisition (1230s). It was in response to large popular movements throughout Europe considered apostate or heretical to Christianity, in particular Catharism and Waldensians in southern France and northern Italy. These were the first inquisition movements of many that would follow.

Torture was used after 1252. On May 15, Pope Innocent IV issued a papal bull entitled Ad exstirpanda, which authorized the use of torture by inquisitors. The Inquisitors were forbidden to use methods that resulted in bloodshed, mutilation or death. One of the more common forms of medieval inquisition torture was known as strappado. The hands were bound behind the back with a rope, and the accused was suspended this way, dislocating the joints painfully in both arms. Weights could be added to the legs dislocating those joints as well.

The organization is still active today under the name of the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith. Prior to becoming Pope Benedict XVI, Cardinal Ratzinger was the head of the congregation."

crusades anyone?

The remainder of the 13th century saw a variety of Crusades aimed ... at combating any and all of those seen as enemies of the Christian faith. The Albigensian Crusade (1208-29) aimed to root out the heretical Cathari or Albigensian sect of Christianity in France, while the Baltic Crusades (1211-25) sought to subdue pagans in Transylvania. In the Fifth Crusade, put in motion by Pope Innocent III before his death in 1216, the Crusaders attacked Egypt from both land and sea, but were forced to surrender to Muslim defenders led by Saladin’s nephew, Al-Malik al-Kamil, in 1221. In 1229, in what became known as the Sixth Crusade, Emperor Frederick II achieved the peaceful transfer of Jerusalem to Crusader control through negotiation with al-Kamil. The peace treaty expired a decade later...

The Greater Israel Project

The Greater Israel Project lies at the very heart of the AAA’s geopolitical triangulation strategy throughout the Middle East. The United States, the United Kingdom and the Modern State of Israel have collaborated quite closely for well over a century to implement this final phase of destruction of several Mideast nations. Because their once clandestine agenda has now become transparent to the many concerned countries, these 3 nations have become known as the true Axis of Evil in the world today.

“Greater Israel”: The Zionist Plan for the Middle East

Just as the MSI was born out of terrorism, its methodical expansion through the outright theft of Palestinian land has occurred by way of incessant false flag terror operations. These and many other highly deceptive and destructive tactics have been used against those who rightfully inhabit Palestine, just as they are now being utilized in Syria. The very essence of their ‘Relocation Plan’ is the employment of every form of terror. Just like the Armenian Holocaust was implemented by the same Zionist cabal to scare them away from their communities, which it did, the ISIS and Al Nusra terrorist groups have been set up and enabled to do the very same.

The purposeful and slow-motion Zionist genocide of the Palestinian people has likewise furthered the cabal’s Greater Israel agenda. Systematically getting rid of those indigenous peoples throughout much of the Middle East is a central component of that agenda. In this particular regard the AAA globalists seeks not only to remove the Palestinians from the MSI, but the Syrians from their lands as well. Witness what is perhaps the largest mass migration in modern history of Syrian people to Europe. Irrespective of the fact that the forefathers of Syrians and Palestinians alike have lived in the Mideast for centuries and in Israel over millennia, the Zionist cabal is intent on their removal.

ISIS, ISIL and the ISLAMIC STATE
It is now common knowledge among the world community of nations that the United States, United Kingdom and Israel surreptitiously created ISIS and Al Nusra just as they created Al Qaeda. The blueprint for the formation of these types of synthetic terror organizations came from the CIA’s establishment of the Mujahideen in Afghanistan. By the use of proxy armies of paid mercenaries, which were comprised of ‘Islamist’ guerrilla fighters, the USA was able to defeat the Russian military in Afghanistan. That development, in turn, permitted the Taliban to come into power which merely created another tyranny for the Afghans to deal with.

Mujahideen (Arabic: ??????????) is the plural form of mujahid (Arabic: ??????), the term for one engaged in Jihad.[3]

What is crucial to understand is that these mercenary jihadis have nothing to do with the religion of Islam. Whether they were even raised as Muslims is in serious question since many of them were exposed to a false sect of Sunni Islam known as Wahhabism. This form of perverted Islamic fundamentalism was made the official state religion by the crypto-Jewish monarchy of Saudi Arabia with the assistance of their Anglo-American overlords. Likewise, the Dönmeh of Turkey introduced their own kind of Islam which had nothing to do with the Prophet Muhammad or the Koran, and a LOT to do with the pseudo-Kabbalistic practices of the similarly warped Sabbatean sect. ...

Bullshit.  Islamists are inherently pillagers.  The Founding Fathers learning this the hard way.  They gave no cause for open hostility, and it was only after 15 years of paying annual ransoms that they decided to stick some ragheads on their swords.  The First Barbary War is history.  The threat of Islam is not.

When you are trying to insuilt someone by asking them a sarcastic question, you might want to end the sentence with a question mark ESPECIALLY if in the previous post it was pointed out that you had already failed to do so once.  Pavlov's dog learned faster than you fuck tard.   I think your best action at this point is to stop playing.   My best defense is your words.  By the way, if you really had better things to do, you wouldn't have replied at all.   Seriously, it's as if you are trying to showcase your stupidity to the world.   I must say, you are doing a fantastic job there.

Murdering and pillaging the infidel is a muslim "core value". It's in the book!

The Quran Says that People of Other Religions
are to be Violently Punished in This World

Allah himself fights against the unbelievers (9:30), so why should Muslims not fight in his cause rather than in the cause of evil (4:76)?  About 19% of the Quran is devoted to the violent conquest and subjugation of non-Muslims:

Against them make ready your strength to the utmost of your power, including steeds of war, to strike terror into (the hearts of) the enemies of Allah and your enemies and others besides, whom ye may not know (8:60)

Strive hard (Jihad) against the Unbelievers and the Hypocrites, and be firm against them. Their abode is Hell,- an evil refuge indeed.  (66:9, See also 9:73)

Muslims are to expect a reward in this life as well as the next (4:134), so it makes sense that unbelievers should be punished in this life as well:

…He whom Allah sendeth astray, for him there is no guide. For them is a penalty in the life of this world, but harder, truly, is the penalty of the Hereafter… (13:33-34)

There are at least two places in the Quran where the violent death of non-Muslims is referred to as Allah's reward for unbelief (2:191, 9:26), as in "such is the reward for unbelievers."  Verse 3:56,  bluntly states that "those who reject faith" will be "punished with terrible agony in this world" (a vow that Muhammad and his companions personally took it upon themselves to fulfill).

The Quran tells Muslims that Allah uses them to violently punish others:

Fight them, Allah will punish them by your hands and bring them to disgrace... (9:14)

Allah could slay unbelievers himself, but he makes it a test for Muslims to prove their faith:

"If it had been Allah's Will, He Himself could certainly have punished them (without you). But (He lets you fight), in order to test you, by means of others. But those who are killed in the Way of Allah, He will never let their deeds be lost"  (47:4)

One of the most violent chapters in the Quran charters Muhammad and his followers with making Islam "superior over all religions" (9:33).

In the end, All beings on heaven and earth will be forced to bow down to Allah, either willingly or by force:

And unto Allah falleth prostrate whosoever is in the heavens and the earth, willingly or unwillingly (13:15)

Muslims are told that Allah "loves those who fight in his way" to make Islam "victorious over all other religions, even though the disbelievers resist" (61:4-11). Those who do resist Islam will be humiliated:

Those who resist Allah and His Messenger will be among those most humiliated. (58:20 - The context for this verse is the eviction of the Jewish tribes of Medina and the confiscation of their wealth, land, and children by Muhammad).

Non-Muslims are to be fought until religion is only for Allah:

And fight them until there is no more ftna (unbelief, worshipping others beside Allah), and religion is all for Allah (8:39 – Some translate the word "fitna" as “persecution”, but in this context it means resistance to Islam – defined in the prior verse as an unwillingness to believe (see verse 38).  This passage was “revealed” following a battle that Muhammad deliberately provoked.  Verse 2:193 essentially says the same thing and was also “revealed” at a time when the Muslims were not under physical attack).

Those with "diseased hearts" - which include Christians and Jews according to 5:52 - are to be "seized wherever found and slain with a (fierce) slaughter" (33:60-62) along with "hypocrites" (Muslims who are judged not to be true believers by their associations with unbelievers or their unwillingness to engage in Jihad).

Non-Muslims are to be encroached on, pressured and punished by the Muslims:

See they not that We gradually reduce the land (in their control) from its outlying borders? (13:41 - See also 21:44)

We shall punish them gradually from directions they perceive not. (68:44)

And He made you heirs to their land and their dwellings and their property, and (to) a land which you have not yet trodden, and Allah has power over all things. (33:27, See also Bukhari 53:392)

Allah will grant Muslims authority and power over all other people:

 

Allah has promised, to those among you who believe and work righteous deeds, that He will, of a surety, grant them in the land, inheritance (of power), as He granted it to those before them; that He will establish in authority their religion... (24:55)

 

(Muhammad's companions continued to self-fulfill this prophecy with an aggressive and senseless military expansion that left a trail of bodies from Spain to India).

The dangers of falling into Anti-Semitism are very real. Historically, Anti-Semitism has been a major problem, and it continues to be in some parts of the world today. One of the primary ways in which Anti-Semites unfairly targeted Jews was to vilify Halakha, digging up intolerant views in the rabbinical tradition to smear Judaism with.

But herein lies an irony: many Zionist Jews are now joining Anti-Muslim Christians in vilifying the Islamic tradition in a very similar way. Once Halakha was the target of bigots; today, it is Sharia. Rabbi Eliyahu Stern has written an excellent article about this topic, entitled Don’t Fear Islamic Law in America.

I will be applying the same standards our opponents apply to the Islamic tradition to the Jewish one, to show that Judaism is equally vulnerable to such criticisms. It is hoped that this exercise will encourage people of Judeo-Christian background to be more hesitant in vilifying and targeting Islam. This is purely an exercise in thought, a what if scenario (what if we applied the same standards to your religion as you do onto others?) designed to be the antidote to religious and cultural arrogance.

By clarifying that this constitutes an “exercise in thought” one should know that I am not saying Judaism is XYZ because of ABC, but rather simply that if you insist on arguing that Islam is XYZ due to ABC then–based on your own logic–Judaism and Christianity are also XYZ because they too have ABC. This is a what if? and an if-then argument.

Deuteronomy 7New International Version (NIV)

Driving Out the Nations
7 When the Lord your God brings you into the land you are entering to possess and drives out before you many nations—the Hittites, Girgashites, Amorites, Canaanites, Perizzites, Hivites and Jebusites, seven nations larger and stronger than you— 2 and when the Lord your God has delivered them over to you and you have defeated them, then you must destroy them totally.[a] Make no treaty with them, and show them no mercy. 3 Do not intermarry with them. Do not give your daughters to their sons or take their daughters for your sons, 4 for they will turn your children away from following me to serve other gods, and the Lord’s anger will burn against you and will quickly destroy you. 5 This is what you are to do to them: Break down their altars, smash their sacred stones, cut down their Asherah poles[b] and burn their idols in the fire. 6 For you are a people holy to the Lord your God. The Lord your God has chosen you out of all the peoples on the face of the earth to be his people, his treasured possession.

7 The Lord did not set his affection on you and choose you because you were more numerous than other peoples, for you were the fewest of all peoples. 8 But it was because the Lord loved you and kept the oath he swore to your ancestors that he brought you out with a mighty hand and redeemed you from the land of slavery, from the power of Pharaoh king of Egypt. 9 Know therefore that the Lord your God is God; he is the faithful God, keeping his covenant of love to a thousand generations of those who love him and keep his commandments. 10 But

those who hate him he will repay to their face by destruction;
he will not be slow to repay to their face those who hate him.
11 Therefore, take care to follow the commands, decrees and laws I give you today.

12 If you pay attention to these laws and are careful to follow them, then the Lord your God will keep his covenant of love with you, as he swore to your ancestors. 13 He will love you and bless you and increase your numbers. He will bless the fruit of your womb, the crops of your land—your grain, new wine and olive oil—the calves of your herds and the lambs of your flocks in the land he swore to your ancestors to give you. 14 You will be blessed more than any other people; none of your men or women will be childless, nor will any of your livestock be without young. 15 The Lord will keep you free from every disease. He will not inflict on you the horrible diseases you knew in Egypt, but he will inflict them on all who hate you. 16 You must destroy all the peoples the Lord your God gives over to you. Do not look on them with pity and do not serve their gods, for that will be a snare to you.

17 You may say to yourselves, “These nations are stronger than we are. How can we drive them out?” 18 But do not be afraid of them; remember well what the Lord your God did to Pharaoh and to all Egypt. 19 You saw with your own eyes the great trials, the signs and wonders, the mighty hand and outstretched arm, with which the Lord your God brought you out. The Lord your God will do the same to all the peoples you now fear. 20 Moreover, the Lord your God will send the hornet among them until even the survivors who hide from you have perished. 21 Do not be terrified by them, for the Lord your God, who is among you, is a great and awesome God. 22 The Lord your God will drive out those nations before you, little by little. You will not be allowed to eliminate them all at once, or the wild animals will multiply around you. 23 But the Lord your God will deliver them over to you, throwing them into great confusion until they are destroyed. 24 He will give their kings into your hand, and you will wipe out their names from under heaven. No one will be able to stand up against you; you will destroy them. 25 The images of their gods you are to burn in the fire. Do not covet the silver and gold on them, and do not take it for yourselves, or you will be ensnared by it, for it is detestable to the Lord your God. 26 Do not bring a detestable thing into your house or you, like it, will be set apart for destruction. Regard it as vile and utterly detest it, for it is set apart for destruction.

Deuteronomy 7:2 The Hebrew term refers to the irrevocable giving over of things or persons to the Lord, often by totally destroying them; also in verse 26.

If your own full brother, or your son or daughter, or your beloved wife, or you intimate friend, entices you secretly to serve other gods, whom you and your fathers have not known, gods of any other nations, near at hand or far away, from one end of the earth to the other: do not yield to him or listen to him, nor look with pity upon him, to spare or shield him, but kill him.  Your hand shall be the first raised to slay him; the rest of the people shall join in with you.  You shall stone him to death, because he sought to lead you astray from the Lord, your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt, that place of slavery.  And all Israel, hearing of this, shall fear and never do such evil as this in your midst.  (Deuteronomy 13:7-12 NAB) [they dont believe like you, KILL THEM...
