Psychopathic Islamism is the Enemy of Freedom and Humanity Itself

Bruce Tefft's understanding and description of islam itself as the enemy of the USA and the fundamental values of the West seems most accurate to me. Any honest reading of the 1400 year history of islam makes it quite clear that there is little difference between it and the vile ideology of nazism or any other oppressive and murderous totalitarian society. Islam and those who profess to be muslim willingly acknowledge their intrinsic opposition to, and contempt for freedom.

If America, the West, and other people truly believe in freedom, then islam and muslims must be recognized as the enemy it in fact is. It is not just abstract warped esoteric islamic ideology as written in the koran that is the problem, it is the actual behavior and practice of islam by muslims that demonstrate its evil, its deep hatred for individual freedom, its socio- and psychopathological nature.

Viewed over its 1400 year history, islam has been and is today a dire threat to all freedom loving people. Islam is a vicious direct and insidious threat to human rationality, progress, and freedom. We have here a barbaric homicidal criminal lunacy posing as a religion. Islam is not a religion. It is more like a psychopathic criminal organization. As such it should be outlawed in Western societies. We are at war with islam. We should fight this war to crush and vanquish this 1400 year old enemy that has brought horrors and unspeakable misery upon so much of humanity, and still does so today. This war against psychopathic islamism must be won in a decisive and totally unambiguous way. Islam must be taught a lesson that will never be forgotten, just as the German nazis and the militarist Japanese were.

Shame on the West if it does not rise to face truthfully and forcefully the evil that islam has, and still, imposes upon the world.
