Peace On Earth
Saturday
YESTERDAY I HEARD Serge Trifkovic say most of the conflicts in the world involve Muslims, and if you took away conflicts involving Muslims, the world would be a pretty peaceful place.
Muslims, both moderates and extremists, are always quick to point out that Islam is a religion of peace. But this statement by Trifkovic made me curious, so I've been searching on Google for a map of world conflicts, and which ones involve Muslims. I haven't found what I was looking for, but I found two maps (on two different web sites that have nothing to do with each other) that are interesting when you see them together.
The first map is by Freedom House, an organization that tracks democracies around the world. It shows their map of world freedom. The purple countries are the least free:
A few clicks later, I found this map of populations of Muslims. It shows by color where the densest population of Muslims live in the world (the highest population of Muslims is darkest blue):
Pretty interesting, huh? One of the things we've been advocating strongly and repeatedly on CitizenWarrior.com is that we can weaken Islamic supremacists by pushing for women's rights.
In order for women to have rights, the Muslims will have to loosen their tight grip on Islamic law. Those who make fewer of their laws conform to Shari'a have more freedoms, and more rights for women. And in so doing, perhaps some other Koranic instructions (like jihad, for example) might be modified as well. This would make it more difficult for Jihadis to recruit new warriors. And hopefully those young men would find more productive things to do with their time than blowing themselves up.
And all this can be brought about by focusing solely on promoting women's rights. Do you think every woman should have human rights? Yes, so does almost everybody else in the world. This is a place we can join together in a mutual and important purpose.
In the struggle to defeat the third jihad, this is the place the wall can be breached.

I read a comment that choosing female genital mutilation would be a good target for action. I think that's a great idea -- choosing something specific, and in this case, something that most everyone, including probably most Muslims, find abhorrent. Mutilating girls in that was is just plain wrong, and not many would disagree. That is a specific issue to attack. And the attack would weaken the moral standing of Islamofascism for Muslims around the world. In the eyes of the world and in the eyes of their own people, pure Islam -- a strict following of the Qur'an and the Surah -- would be seen clearly as immoral.
Another specific issue in the same category is honor killings. And there are organizations that have ostensibly nothing to do with stopping the spread of Islamofascism around the world, and yet they may be having a more practical effect than those coming at the issue head-on. These are organizations that are specifically working to stop female genital mutilation or honor killings. I'm talking about organizations like STOPFGMC.org, The Inter-Parlimentary Union, Petition Online, Karokari, and the International Campaign Against Honour Killings.
This might also be a way we can enlist those friends of ours who aren't sure about criticizing a religion or culture and yet can clearly see these two practices are wrong and must stop.
haisten. When islamic women are only promoting their islamic women rights, we nonbelievers should also concentrate on promoting our nonbelievers rights.

Islamic women are more than capable to promote their islamic women rights and don't need us nonbelievers to assist them.

seems to me that there was no muslim problem before women's rights
emasculated western man.
I wish this could be done relativly peacefully but I have no doubt that we will be forced to eliminate large amounts of muslims in the future unless we give them an ultimatum on what they need to do in order to not be annihilated. If it were up to me I would give the muzzies an ultimatum that would save lives in the long run. Eliminate jihad and all things in the quran, hadith, and sira regarding us (infidels) or violent, get rid of all hate preachers, get rid of all bad and prejudiced sharia that's not just between a person and his/her diety, get rid of all WMD in muslim countries. Do this and you live, don't and you are done, period. Mecca and Medina will also be wiped off the map. This would take the cooperation of the U.S., Europe, China, Russia, Canada, Australia, Japan, S.Korea, etc. I know China is a brutal Govt but sometimes you have to deal with bad guys to get rid worse guys.
Thanks

Lovely map, but somehow even-though a bit strange to see that Pakistan is more or less a bit free, while everybody knows that a source of evil is coming from Pakistan.
And Morocco is almost the same, once I've heard a story about a car accident the aunt of the king was in. She did not give way. The man she bumped into was never heard of afterwards. Nobody knows how he disappeared. He should have seen that it was the kings aunt, he should have given her the right of way, even when she had to wait.
A few countries that are orange should be labelled purple.
I think honor killing is the better route. Simply because nowadays people have no nuance. no discernment or very little. So fighting against women mutilation will spill into fighting male circumcision, which will get the Jewish world out of the picking sides of the battle.
Honor killing is very specificly Muslim and there's no other comparison except just plain murder.
Feminists were (and in some cases still are) preaching this decades ago, but no one cared about it.
Funny how no one cares about women's rights until they themselves are threatened.
many commentators jeer that feminsits are not fighting for the freedom of Muslims women - reasonably fair comment simnce many feminists have gone to the multicultural side of politics.
But where were/are the men loudly beating the drum for the liberation/freedom of muslim women forthy, thirty years ago?
Where are the men now who seem to desire this state of affairs? What is stopping men forming movements to stop the abuse of Islamic women, running fundraisers, establishing safehouses? (and I don't just mean the various military forces in the wilds of Afghanistan etc.)
There are a few, but the most talk I hear is not how to stop these atrocities and establish safe places, but sneers and jeers about why the feminists aren't doing something.
Talk is very very cheap.
Mind you, I have no qualms about having female suicide bombers as well as male ones executed.

Nice try, loser. Boy, it's always a zero-sum game with some people.
Citizen warrior, thanks for listing those organisations against FGM etc. I did not read the posts before commenting. Next time I will, just to be sure what I say is not contradicted by former postings!! ;)

Yes, you're right. The best thing we could do to fight Islamic oppression would be to make women leave their jobs and submit to their husbands in everything and stay inside unless they have his permission to go outside, and only while wearing a some kind of all-encompassing body covering... oh, wait...
The only problem I see with the "freedom map" is that it shows Western European countries (France, Italy, Spain, Germany) as "free", BUT they have 50,000,000 muslims living among them, ready to take over within 89 years or so, and the BIRTH RATES among the NATIVE Europeans is not at replacement level in most Western European countries because of birth control, abortion, cohabitation but no marriage, and other liberal, secular, suicidal choices.
