Islam is Fascist, it is not a religion
Reader comment on item: Militant Islam Is Put In Class With Communism, Fascism

I agree with those who see clearly the challenge facing an increasing faithless and history-denying West. ...
1. Islam has never been peaceful.
2. Islam conquered its existing 'empire' through war and forced through dhimmitude the submission of non-Muslims to Islam [through taxes, punishments of various kinds]. This still exists today. Try practicing Christianity in the Muslim world.
3. Islam did not develop an enlightened civilisation - it invented nothing new [contrary to EurArabian and left wing US professors].
4. It is directly opposed to all that Christianity and the New Testament support.
5. Islam and terror are funded by drug trafficking and EU - Western monies. The PLA is an obvious example but the list includes many other groups.
6. Iran, Syria and Saudi Arabia spend $3 billion + per year to build mosques and spread anti-Western propaganda in EU and North America. [the 5th column].

Mohammad, the Koran, the political objectives of Dar-al Islam vs. Dar Al Harb [non-believers], makes the religion fascist. No private property, no respect for rights, no inquiry, no debate, no need for freedom, no need for equality or justice - just submit to a leader and government. Whether it is pagan Naziism or Godless Communism - the result is the same - destruction of life, liberty and the prosecution of war against infidels or inferiors.

Listen carefully to what the Mullahs state and write - they want to destroy the West and submit the World to Islamic power. It is not just Al Qaeda and Hizbollah - but the entire Islamic doctrine that creates terrorism and spawns hatred, that is the enemy. ...
