pamelagellerreport--2020-02-22--UK high school textbook links 9/11 Islamic attacks to the Jews

Quran ( 2:244 ) – “ Then fight in the cause of Allah , and know that Allah Heareth and knoweth all things.
” ( See also : Response to Apologists ) Quran ( 2:216 ) – “ Fighting is prescribed for you , and ye dislike it .
But it is possible that ye dislike a thing which is good for you , and that ye love a thing which is bad for you .
But Allah knoweth , and ye know not.
” Not only does this verse establish that violence can be virtuous , but it also @ @ @ @ @ @ @ only in self-defense , since the audience was obviously not under attack at the time .
From the Hadith , we know that this verse was narrated at a time that Muhammad was actually trying to motivate his people into raiding merchant caravans for loot .
( See also : Response to Apologists ) Quran ( 3:56 ) – “ As to those who reject faith , I will punish them with terrible agony in this world and in the Hereafter , nor will they have anyone to help.
” ( See also @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 3:151 ) – “ Soon shall We cast terror into the hearts of the Unbelievers , for that they joined companions with Allah , for which He had sent no authority ” .
This speaks directly of polytheists , yet it also includes Christians , since they believe in the Trinity ( ie .
what Muhammad incorrectly believed to be ‘ joining companions to Allah ’ ) .
( See also : Response to Apologists ) Quran ( 4:74 ) – “ Let those fight in the way of Allah who sell the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ .
Whoso fighteth in the way of Allah , be he slain or be he victorious , on him We shall bestow a vast reward.
” The martyrs of Islam are unlike the early Christians , who were led meekly to the slaughter .
These Muslims are killed in battle as they attempt to inflict death and destruction for the cause of Allah .
This is the theological basis for today ’ s suicide bombers .
( See also : Response to Apologists ) Quran ( 4:76 ) – “ Those who believe @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and those who disbelieve , fight in the cause of Taghut ( Satan , etc. )
.
So fight you against the friends of Shaitan ( Satan ) ” The Arabic for the word “ fight ” is from qital , meaning physical combat .
Quran ( 4:89 ) – “ They but wish that ye should reject Faith , as they do , and thus be on the same footing ( as they ) : But take not friends from their ranks until they flee in the way of Allah ( From @ @ @ @ @ @ @ they turn renegades , seize them and slay them wherever ye find them ; and ( in any case ) take no friends or helpers from their ranks.
” ( See also : Response to Apologists ) Quran ( 4:95 ) – “ Not equal are those of the believers who sit ( at home ) , except those who are disabled ( by injury or are blind or lame , etc . )
, and those who strive hard and fight in the Cause of Allah with their wealth and their lives @ @ @ @ @ @ @ who strive hard and fight with their wealth and their lives above those who sit ( at home ) .Unto each , Allah has promised good ( Paradise ) , but Allah has preferred those who strive hard and fight , above those who sit ( at home ) by a huge reward ” This passage criticizes “ peaceful ” Muslims who do not join in the violence , letting them know that they are less worthy in Allah ’ s eyes .
It also demolishes the modern myth that “ Jihad ” @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the Quran , but rather a spiritual struggle .
Not only is this Arabic word ( mujahiduna ) used in this passage , but it is clearly not referring to anything spiritual , since the physically disabled are given exemption .
( The Hadith reveals the context of the passage to be in response to a blind man ’ s protest that he is unable to engage in Jihad , which would not make sense if it meant an internal struggle ) .
( See also : Response to Apologists ) Quran ( @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ( Muslims ) travel in the land , there is no sin on you if you shorten your Salat ( prayer ) if you fear that the disbelievers may attack you , verily , the disbelievers are ever unto you open enemies.
“ Mere disbelief makes one an “ open ” enemy of Muslims .
Quran ( 4:104 ) – “ And be not weak hearted in pursuit of the enemy ; if you suffer pain , then surely they ( too ) suffer pain as you suffer pain… ” Is pursuing an @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of self-defense ?
( See also : Response to Apologists ) Quran ( 5:33 ) – “ The punishment of those who wage war against Allah and His messenger and strive to make mischief in the land is only this , that they should be murdered or crucified or their hands and their feet should be cut off on opposite sides or they should be imprisoned ; this shall be as a disgrace for them in this world , and in the hereafter they shall have a grievous chastisement ” ( See also @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 8:12 ) – “ ( Remember ) when your Lord inspired the angels… “ I will cast terror into the hearts of those who disbelieve .
Therefore strike off their heads and strike off every fingertip of them ” No reasonable person would interpret this to mean a spiritual struggle , given that it both followed and preceded confrontations in which non-Muslims were killed by Muslims .
The targets of violence are “ those who disbelieve ” – further defined in the next verse ( 13 ) as those who “ defy and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ self-defense .
In fact , the verses in sura 8 were narrated shortly after a battle provoked by Muhammad , who had been trying to attack a lightly-armed caravan to steal goods belonging to other people .
( See also : Response to Apologists ) Quran ( 8:15 ) – “ O ye who believe !
When ye meet those who disbelieve in battle , turn not your backs to them .
( 16 ) Whoso on that day turneth his back to them , unless maneuvering for battle or intent to join @ @ @ @ @ @ @ wrath from Allah , and his habitation will be hell , a hapless journey ’ s end.
” Quran ( 8:39 ) – “ And fight with them until there is no more fitna ( disorder , unbelief ) and religion is all for Allah ” Some translations interpret “ fitna ” as “ persecution ” , but the traditional understanding of this word is not supported by the historical context ( See notes for 2:193 ) .
The Meccans were simply refusing Muhammad access to their city during the pilgrimage .
Other @ @ @ @ @ @ @ but not as an armed group , since Muhammad had declared war on Mecca prior to his eviction .
The Meccans were also acting in defense of their religion , as it was Muhammad ’ s intention to destroy their idols and establish Islam by force ( which he later did ) .
Hence the critical part of this verse is to fight until “ religion is only for Allah ” , meaning that the true justification of violence was the unbelief of the opposition .
According to the Sira ( Ibn Ishaq/Hisham @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Allah must have no rivals.
” ( See also : Response to Apologists ) Quran ( 8:57 ) – “ If thou comest on them in the war , deal with them so as to strike fear in those who are behind them , that haply they may remember.
” Quran ( 8:67 ) – “ It is not for a Prophet that he should have prisoners of war until he had made a great slaughter in the land… ” Quran ( 8:59-60 ) – “ And let not those who disbelieve suppose @ @ @ @ @ @ @ s Purpose ) .
Lo !
they can not escape .
Make ready for them all thou canst of ( armed ) force and of horses tethered , that thereby ye may dismay the enemy of Allah and your enemy.
” As Ibn Kathir puts it in his tafsir on this passage , “ Allah commands Muslims to prepare for war against disbelievers , as much as possible , according to affordability and availability.
” ( See also : Response to Apologists ) Quran ( 9:5 ) – “ So when the sacred @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the idolaters wherever you find them , and take them captive and besiege them and lie in wait for them in every ambush , then if they repent and keep up prayer and pay the poor-rate , leave their way free to them.
” According to this verse , the best way of staying safe from Muslim violence at the time of Muhammad was to convert to Islam : prayer ( salat ) and the poor tax ( zakat ) are among the religion ’ s Five Pillars .
The popular claim that @ @ @ @ @ @ @ context of self-defense is seriously challenged by this passage as well , since the Muslims to whom it was written were obviously not under attack .
Had they been , then there would have been no waiting period ( earlier verses make it a duty for Muslims to fight in self-defense , even during the sacred months ) .
The historical context is Mecca after the idolaters were subjugated by Muhammad and posed no threat .
Once the Muslims had power , they violently evicted those unbelievers who would not convert .
( @ @ @ @ @ @ @ [ Note : The verse says to fight unbelievers “ wherever you find them “ .
Even if the context is a time of battle ( which it was not ) the reading appears to sanction attacks against those “ unbelievers ” who are not on the battlefield .
In 2016 , the Islamic State referred to this verse in urging the faithful to commit terror attacks : Allah did not only command the ‘ fighting ’ of disbelievers , as if to say He only wants us to conduct frontline operations against @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ordered that they be slain wherever they may be – on or off the battlefield .
( source ) ] Quran ( 9:14 ) – “ Fight against them so that Allah will punish them by your hands and disgrace them and give you victory over them and heal the breasts of a believing people.
” Humiliating and hurting non-believers not only has the blessing of Allah , but it is ordered as a means of carrying out his punishment and even “ heals ” the hearts of Muslims .
Quran ( 9:20 @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and have left their homes and striven with their wealth and their lives in Allah ’ s way are of much greater worth in Allah ’ s sight .
These are they who are triumphant.
” The Arabic word interpreted as “ striving ” in this verse is the same root as “ Jihad ” .
The context is obviously holy war .
Quran ( 9:29 ) – “ Fight those who believe not in Allah nor the Last Day , nor hold that forbidden which hath been forbidden by Allah and His @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Truth , ( even if they are ) of the People of the Book , until they pay the Jizya with willing submission , and feel themselves subdued.
” “ People of the Book ” refers to Christians and Jews .
According to this verse , they are to be violently subjugated , with the sole justification being their religious status .
Verse 9:33 tells Muslims that Allah has instructed them to make Islam “ superior over all religions.
” This chapter was one of the final “ revelations ” from Allah and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ expansion , in which Muhammad ’ s companions managed to conquer two-thirds of the Christian world in the next 100 years .
Islam is intended to dominate all other people and faiths .
( See also : Response to Apologists ) Quran ( 9:30 ) – “ And the Jews say : Ezra is the son of Allah ; and the Christians say : The Messiah is the son of Allah ; these are the words of their mouths ; they imitate the saying of those who disbelieved before ; may Allah destroy @ @ @ @ @ @ @ !
” ( See also : Response to Apologists ) Quran ( 9:38-39 ) – “ O ye who believe !
what is the matter with you , that , when ye are asked to go forth in the cause of Allah , ye cling heavily to the earth ?
Do ye prefer the life of this world to the Hereafter ?
But little is the comfort of this life , as compared with the Hereafter .
Unless ye go forth , He will punish you with a grievous penalty , and put @ @ @ @ @ @ @ a warning to those who refuse to fight , that they will be punished with Hell .
The verse also links physical fighting to the “ cause of Allah ” ( or “ way of Allah ” ) .
( See also : Response to Apologists ) Quran ( 9:41 ) – “ Go forth , light-armed and heavy-armed , and strive with your wealth and your lives in the way of Allah !
That is best for you if ye but knew.
” See also the verse that follows ( 9:42 ) @ @ @ @ @ @ @ gain ( in sight ) , and the journey easy , they would ( all ) without doubt have followed thee , but the distance was long , ( and weighed ) on them ” This contradicts the myth that Muslims are to fight only in self-defense , since the wording implies that battle will be waged a long distance from home ( in another country and – in this case – on Christian soil , according to the historians ) .
( See also : Response to Apologists ) Quran ( 9:73 @ @ @ @ @ @ @ hard against the unbelievers and the hypocrites and be unyielding to them ; and their abode is hell , and evil is the destination.
” Dehumanizing those who reject Islam , by reminding Muslims that unbelievers are merely firewood for Hell , makes it easier to justify slaughter .
It explains why today ’ s devout Muslims generally have little regard for those outside the faith .
The inclusion of “ hypocrites ” ( non-practicing ) within the verse also contradicts the apologist ’ s defense that the targets of hate and hostility @ @ @ @ @ @ @ never an opposing army made up of non-religious Muslims in Muhammad ’ s time .
( See also Games Muslims Play : Terrorists Can ’ t Be Muslim Because They Kill Muslims for the role this verse plays in Islam ’ s perpetual internal conflicts ) .
( See also : Response to Apologists ) Quran ( 9:88 ) – “ But the Messenger , and those who believe with him , strive and fight with their wealth and their persons : for them are ( all ) good things : and it @ @ @ @ @ @ @ See also : Response to Apologists ) Quran ( 9:111 ) – “ Allah hath purchased of the believers their persons and their goods ; for theirs ( in return ) is the garden ( of Paradise ) : they fight in His cause , and slay and are slain : a promise binding on Him in truth , through the Law , the Gospel , and the Quran : and who is more faithful to his covenant than Allah ?
then rejoice in the bargain which ye have concluded : that is @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Quran define a true believer ?
( See also : Response to Apologists ) Quran ( 9:123 ) – “ O you who believe !
fight those of the unbelievers who are near to you and let them find in you hardness.
” ( See also : Response to Apologists ) Quran ( 17:16 ) – “ And when We wish to destroy a town , We send Our commandment to the people of it who lead easy lives , but they transgress therein ; thus the word proves true against it , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ” Note that the crime is moral transgression , and the punishment is “ utter destruction.
” ( Before ordering the 9/11 attacks , Osama bin Laden first issued Americans an invitation to Islam ) .
Quran ( 18:65-81 ) – This parable lays the theological groundwork for honor killings , in which a family member is murdered because they brought shame to the family , either through apostasy or perceived moral indiscretion .
The story ( which is not found in any Jewish or Christian source ) tells of Moses encountering a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ does things which don ’ t seem to make sense on the surface , but are then justified according to later explanation .
One such action is to murder a youth for no apparent reason ( v.74 ) .
However , the wise man later explains that it was feared that the boy would “ grieve ” his parents by “ disobedience and ingratitude.
” He was killed so that Allah could provide them a ‘ better ’ son .
[ Note : This parable along with verse 58:22 is a major reason @ @ @ @ @ @ @ .
Reliance of the Traveler ( Umdat al-Saliq ) says that punishment for murder is not applicable when a parent or grandparent kills their offspring ( o.1.12 ) . ]
( See also : Response to Apologists ) Quran ( 21:44 ) – “ …See they not that We gradually reduce the land ( in their control ) from its outlying borders ?
Is it then they who will win ?
” Quran ( 25:52 ) – “ Therefore listen not to the Unbelievers , but strive against them with the utmost strenuousness @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Jihad is used twice in this verse – although it may not have been referring to Holy War when narrated , since it was prior to the hijra at Mecca .
The “ it ” at the end is thought to mean the Quran .
Thus the verse may have originally meant a non-violent resistance to the ‘ unbelievers.
’ Obviously , this changed with the hijra .
‘ Jihad ’ after this is almost exclusively within a violent context .
The enemy is always defined as people , rather than ideas .
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ the hypocrites , and those in whose hearts is a disease ( evil desire for adultery , etc . )
, and those who spread false news among the people in Al-Madinah , cease not , We shall certainly let you overpower them , then they will not be able to stay in it as your neighbors but a little while Accursed , wherever found , they shall be seized and killed with a ( terrible ) slaughter.
” This passage sanctions slaughter ( rendered as “ merciless ” and “ horrible murder @ @ @ @ @ @ @ groups : hypocrites ( Muslims who refuse to “ fight in the way of Allah ” ( 3:167 ) and hence don ’ t act as Muslims should ) , those with “ diseased hearts ” ( which include Jews and Christians 5:51-52 ) , and “ alarmists ” or “ agitators – those who speak out against Islam .
It is worth noting that the victims are to be sought out , which is what today ’ s terrorists do .
Quran ( 47:3-4 ) – “ Those who disbelieve follow falsehood @ @ @ @ @ @ @ truth from their Lord… So , when you meet ( fighting Jihad in Allah ’ s Cause ) , those who disbelieve smite at their necks till when you have killed and wounded many of them , then bind a bond firmly ( on them , i.e .
take them as captives ) … 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 , some with others .
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ Way of Allah , He will never let their deeds be lost.
” Holy war is to be pursued against those who reject Allah .
The unbelievers are to be killed and wounded .
Survivors are to be held captive for ransom .
The only reason Allah doesn ’ t do the dirty work himself is to to test the faithfulness of Muslims .
Those who kill pass the test .
( See also : 47:4 for more context ) ( See also : Response to Apologists ) Quran ( 47:35 ) – @ @ @ @ @ @ @ crying for peace , when ye should be uppermost ( Shakir : “ have the upper hand ” ) for Allah is with you , ” ( See also : Response to Apologists ) Quran ( 48:17 ) – “ There is no blame for the blind , nor is there blame for the lame , nor is there blame for the sick ( that they go not forth to war ) .
And whoso obeyeth Allah and His messenger , He will make him enter Gardens underneath which rivers flow ; and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ punish with a painful doom.
” Contemporary apologists sometimes claim that Jihad means ‘ spiritual struggle.
’ If so , then why are the blind , lame and sick exempted ?
This verse also says that those who do not fight will suffer torment in hell .
Quran ( 48:29 ) – “ Muhammad is the messenger of Allah .
And those with him are hard ( ruthless ) against the disbelievers and merciful among themselves ” Islam is not about treating everyone equally .
This verse tells Muslims that two very distinct @ @ @ @ @ @ @ .
Also the word used for ‘ hard ’ or ‘ ruthless ’ in this verse shares the same root as the word translated as ‘ painful ’ or severe ’ to describe Hell in over 25 other verses including 65:10 , 40:46 and 50:26.. Quran ( 61:4 ) – “ Surely Allah loves those who fight in His cause ” Religion of Peace , indeed !
The verse explicitly refers to “ rows ” or “ battle array , ” meaning that it is speaking of physical conflict .
This is followed @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the “ cause ” : “ He it is who has sent His Messenger ( Mohammed ) with guidance and the religion of truth ( Islam ) to make it victorious over all religions even though the infidels may resist.
” ( See next verse , below ) .
Infidels who resist Islamic rule are to be fought .
( See also : Response to Apologists ) Quran ( 61:10-12 ) – “ O You who believe !
Shall I guide you to a commerce that will save you from a painful torment @ @ @ @ @ @ @ His Messenger ( Muhammad ) , and that you strive hard and fight in the Cause of Allah with your wealth and your lives , that will be better for you , if you but know !
( If you do so ) He will forgive you your sins , and admit you into Gardens under which rivers flow , and pleasant dwelling in Gardens of ’ Adn- Eternity [ ‘ Adn ( Edn ) Paradise ] , that is indeed the great success.
” This verse refers to physical battle waged to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ see verse 9 ) .
It uses the Arabic root for the word Jihad .
Quran ( 66:9 ) – “ O Prophet !
Strive against the disbelievers and the hypocrites , and be stern with them .
Hell will be their home , a hapless journey ’ s end.
” The root word of “ Jihad ” is used again here .
The context is clearly holy war , and the scope of violence is broadened to include “ hypocrites ” – those who call themselves Muslims but do not act as @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to Apologists ) Quran ( 2:191-193 ) – “ And kill them wherever you find them , and turn them out from where they have turned you out .
And Al-Fitnah [ disbelief or unrest ] is worse than killing… but if they desist , then lo !
Allah is forgiving and merciful .
And fight them until there is no more Fitnah [ disbelief and worshipping of others along with Allah ] and worship is for Allah alone .
But if they cease , let there be no transgression except against Az-Zalimun @ @ @ @ @ @ @ etc . )
” ( Translation is from the Noble Quran ) The verse prior to this ( 190 ) refers to “ fighting for the cause of Allah those who fight you ” leading some to claim that the entire passage refers to a defensive war in which Muslims are defending their homes and families .
The historical context of this passage is not defensive warfare , however , since Muhammad and his Muslims had just relocated to Medina and were not under attack by their Meccan adversaries .
In fact , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ that Muslims are to drive Meccans out of their own city ( which they later did ) .
Verse 190 thus means to fight those who offer resistance to Allah ’ s rule ( ie .
Muslim conquest ) .
The use of the word “ persecution ” by some Muslim translators is disingenuous – the actual Arabic words for persecution ( idtihad ) – and oppression are not used instead of fitna .
Fitna can mean disbelief , or the disorder that results from unbelief or temptation .
A strict translation is @ @ @ @ @ @ @ authority ( the authority being Allah ) .
This is certainly what is meant in this context since the violence is explicitly commissioned “ until religion is for Allah ” – ie .
unbelievers desist in their unbelief .
[ Editor ’ s note : these notes have been modified slightly after a critic misinterpreted our language .
Verse 193 plainly says that ‘ fighting ’ is sanctioned even if the fitna ‘ ceases ’ .
This is about religious order , not real persecution . ]

Verse 9:33 tells Muslims that Allah has instructed them to make Islam “superior over all religions.” This chapter was one of the final “revelations” from Allah and it set in motion the tenacious military expansion, in which Muhammad’s companions managed to conquer two-thirds of the Christian world in the next 100 years. Islam is intended to dominate all other people and faiths. (See also: Response to Apologists)
Quran (9:30) – “And the Jews say: Ezra is the son of Allah; and the Christians say: The Messiah is the son of Allah; these are the words of their mouths; they imitate the saying of those who disbelieved before; may Allah destroy them; how they are turned away!” (See also: Response to Apologists)
Quran (9:38-39) – “O ye who believe! what is the matter with you, that, when ye are asked to go forth in the cause of Allah, ye cling heavily to the earth? Do ye prefer the life of this world to the Hereafter? But little is the comfort of this life, as compared with the Hereafter. Unless ye go forth, He will punish you with a grievous penalty, and put others in your place.” This is a warning to those who refuse to fight, that they will be punished with Hell. The verse also links physical fighting to the “cause of Allah” (or “way of Allah”). (See also: Response to Apologists)
Quran (9:41) – “Go forth, light-armed and heavy-armed, and strive with your wealth and your lives in the way of Allah! That is best for you if ye but knew.” See also the verse that follows (9:42) – “If there had been immediate gain (in sight), and the journey easy, they would (all) without doubt have followed thee, but the distance was long, (and weighed) on them” This contradicts the myth that Muslims are to fight only in self-defense, since the wording implies that battle will be waged a long distance from home (in another country and – in this case – on Christian soil, according to the historians). (See also: Response to Apologists)
Quran (9:73) – “O Prophet! strive hard against the unbelievers and the hypocrites and be unyielding to them; and their abode is hell, and evil is the destination.” Dehumanizing those who reject Islam, by reminding Muslims that unbelievers are merely firewood for Hell, makes it easier to justify slaughter. It explains why today’s devout Muslims generally have little regard for those outside the faith. The inclusion of “hypocrites” (non-practicing) within the verse also contradicts the apologist’s defense that the targets of hate and hostility are wartime foes, since there was never an opposing army made up of non-religious Muslims in Muhammad’s time. (See also Games Muslims Play: Terrorists Can’t Be Muslim Because They Kill Muslims for the role this verse plays in Islam’s perpetual internal conflicts). (See also: Response to Apologists)
Quran (9:88) – “But the Messenger, and those who believe with him, strive and fight with their wealth and their persons: for them are (all) good things: and it is they who will prosper.” (See also: Response to Apologists)
Quran (9:111) – “Allah hath purchased of the believers their persons and their goods; for theirs (in return) is the garden (of Paradise): they fight in His cause, and slay and are slain: a promise binding on Him in truth, through the Law, the Gospel, and the Quran: and who is more faithful to his covenant than Allah? then rejoice in the bargain which ye have concluded: that is the achievement supreme.” How does the Quran define a true believer? (See also: Response to Apologists)
Quran (9:123) – “O you who believe! fight those of the unbelievers who are near to you and let them find in you hardness.” (See also: Response to Apologists)
Quran (17:16) – “And when We wish to destroy a town, We send Our commandment to the people of it who lead easy lives, but they transgress therein; thus the word proves true against it, so We destroy it with utter destruction.” Note that the crime is moral transgression, and the punishment is “utter destruction.” (Before ordering the 9/11 attacks, Osama bin Laden first issued Americans an invitation to Islam).
Quran (18:65-81) – This parable lays the theological groundwork for honor killings, in which a family member is murdered because they brought shame to the family, either through apostasy or perceived moral indiscretion. The story (which is not found in any Jewish or Christian source) tells of Moses encountering a man with “special knowledge” who does things which don’t seem to make sense on the surface, but are then justified according to later explanation. One such action is to murder a youth for no apparent reason (v.74). However, the wise man later explains that it was feared that the boy would “grieve” his parents by “disobedience and ingratitude.” He was killed so that Allah could provide them a ‘better’ son. [Note: This parable along with verse 58:22 is a major reason that honor killing is sanctioned by Sharia. Reliance of the Traveler (Umdat al-Saliq) says that punishment for murder is not applicable when a parent or grandparent kills their offspring (o.1.12).] (See also: Response to Apologists)
Quran (21:44) – “…See they not that We gradually reduce the land (in their control) from its outlying borders? Is it then they who will win?”
Quran (25:52) – “Therefore listen not to the Unbelievers, but strive against them with the utmost strenuousness with it.” – The root for Jihad is used twice in this verse – although it may not have been referring to Holy War when narrated, since it was prior to the hijra at Mecca. The “it” at the end is thought to mean the Quran. Thus the verse may have originally meant a non-violent resistance to the ‘unbelievers.’ Obviously, this changed with the hijra. ‘Jihad’ after this is almost exclusively within a violent context. The enemy is always defined as people, rather than ideas.
Quran (33:60-62) – “If the hypocrites, and those in whose hearts is a disease (evil desire for adultery, etc.), and those who spread false news among the people in Al-Madinah, cease not, We shall certainly let you overpower them, then they will not be able to stay in it as your neighbors but a little while Accursed, wherever found, they shall be seized and killed with a (terrible) slaughter.” This passage sanctions slaughter (rendered as “merciless” and “horrible murder” in other translations) against three groups: hypocrites (Muslims who refuse to “fight in the way of Allah” (3:167) and hence don’t act as Muslims should), those with “diseased hearts” (which include Jews and Christians 5:51-52), and “alarmists” or “agitators – those who speak out against Islam. It is worth noting that the victims are to be sought out, which is what today’s terrorists do.
Quran (47:3-4) – “Those who disbelieve follow falsehood, while those who believe follow the truth from their Lord… So, when you meet (fighting Jihad in Allah’s Cause), those who disbelieve smite at their necks till when you have killed and wounded many of them, then bind a bond firmly (on them, i.e. take them as captives)… 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, some with others. But those who are killed in the Way of Allah, He will never let their deeds be lost.” Holy war is to be pursued against those who reject Allah. The unbelievers are to be killed and wounded. Survivors are to be held captive for ransom. The only reason Allah doesn’t do the dirty work himself is to to test the faithfulness of Muslims. Those who kill pass the test. (See also: 47:4 for more context) (See also: Response to Apologists)
Quran (47:35) – “Be not weary and faint-hearted, crying for peace, when ye should be uppermost (Shakir: “have the upper hand”) for Allah is with you,” (See also: Response to Apologists)
Quran (48:17) – “There is no blame for the blind, nor is there blame for the lame, nor is there blame for the sick (that they go not forth to war). And whoso obeyeth Allah and His messenger, He will make him enter Gardens underneath which rivers flow; and whoso turneth back, him will He punish with a painful doom.” Contemporary apologists sometimes claim that Jihad means ‘spiritual struggle.’ If so, then why are the blind, lame and sick exempted? This verse also says that those who do not fight will suffer torment in hell.
Quran (48:29) – “Muhammad is the messenger of Allah. And those with him are hard (ruthless) against the disbelievers and merciful among themselves” Islam is not about treating everyone equally. This verse tells Muslims that two very distinct standards are applied based on religious status. Also the word used for ‘hard’ or ‘ruthless’ in this verse shares the same root as the word translated as ‘painful’ or severe’ to describe Hell in over 25 other verses including 65:10, 40:46 and 50:26..
Quran (61:4) – “Surely Allah loves those who fight in His cause” Religion of Peace, indeed! The verse explicitly refers to “rows” or “battle array,” meaning that it is speaking of physical conflict. This is followed by (61:9), which defines the “cause”: “He it is who has sent His Messenger (Mohammed) with guidance and the religion of truth (Islam) to make it victorious over all religions even though the infidels may resist.” (See next verse, below). Infidels who resist Islamic rule are to be fought. (See also: Response to Apologists)
Quran (61:10-12) – “O You who believe! Shall I guide you to a commerce that will save you from a painful torment. That you believe in Allah and His Messenger (Muhammad), and that you strive hard and fight in the Cause of Allah with your wealth and your lives, that will be better for you, if you but know! (If you do so) He will forgive you your sins, and admit you into Gardens under which rivers flow, and pleasant dwelling in Gardens of’Adn- Eternity [‘Adn(Edn) Paradise], that is indeed the great success.” This verse refers to physical battle waged to make Islam victorious over other religions (see verse 9). It uses the Arabic root for the word Jihad.
Quran (66:9) – “O Prophet! Strive against the disbelievers and the hypocrites, and be stern with them. Hell will be their home, a hapless journey’s end.” The root word of “Jihad” is used again here. The context is clearly holy war, and the scope of violence is broadened to include “hypocrites” – those who call themselves Muslims but do not act as such. (See also: Response to Apologists)
Quran (2:191-193) – “And kill them wherever you find them, and turn them out from where they have turned you out. And Al-Fitnah [disbelief or unrest] is worse than killing… but if they desist, then lo! Allah is forgiving and merciful. And fight them until there is no more Fitnah [disbelief and worshipping of others along with Allah] and worship is for Allah alone. But if they cease, let there be no transgression except against Az-Zalimun(the polytheists, and wrong-doers, etc.)” (Translation is from the Noble Quran) The verse prior to this (190) refers to “fighting for the cause of Allah those who fight you” leading some to claim that the entire passage refers to a defensive war in which Muslims are defending their homes and families. The historical context of this passage is not defensive warfare, however, since Muhammad and his Muslims had just relocated to Medina and were not under attack by their Meccan adversaries. In fact, the verses urge offensive warfare, in that Muslims are to drive Meccans out of their own city (which they later did). Verse 190 thus means to fight those who offer resistance to Allah’s rule (ie. Muslim conquest). The use of the word “persecution” by some Muslim translators is disingenuous – the actual Arabic words for persecution (idtihad) – and oppression are not used instead of fitna. Fitna can mean disbelief, or the disorder that results from unbelief or temptation. A strict translation is ‘sedition,’ meaning rebellion against authority (the authority being Allah). This is certainly what is meant in this context since the violence is explicitly commissioned “until religion is for Allah” – ie. unbelievers desist in their unbelief. [Editor’s note: these notes have been modified slightly after a critic misinterpreted our language. Verse 193 plainly says that ‘fighting’ is sanctioned even if the fitna ‘ceases’. This is about religious order, not real persecution.] (See also: Response to Apologists)

Trump’s Approval Rating Among Small Business Owners Soars to All-Time High Small business owners are increasingly applauding the work of President Donald Trump. Sixty-four percent of small business owners approve of Trump’s job performance as president, according to a survey released Thursday by CNBC and Survey Monkey. That was a four-point gain from the prior survey taken at the end of 2019. By Breitbart, February 21, 2020; That is the highest approval rating since the quarterly survey was launched in 2017. The survey was taken between February 2 and February 10, a period in which the Senate was holding its impeachment trial and eventually voted to acquit the president. The percentage of small business owners who say they “strongly approve” of how Trump is handling his job rose to 47 percent. The “strongly approve” rating had never previously been above 40 percent. “This is a high watermark for President Trump’s job approval, both among small business owners in our survey and among the general public,” said SurveyMonkey senior research scientist Laura Wronski. Small business owners skew more Republican than Democrat, giving Trump an edge with this group. But CNBC reports that Trump saw a big jump in his approval by business owners who identify as independents, with his approval rating rising from 37 percent to 43 percent. Trump received high marks from both women and men who owned small businesses. Fifty percent of male small business owners said they strongly approve of the president and 15 percent said they somewhat approve.

Tonight’s Saturday Night Cinema is from England’s most brilliant and prolific director, Alfred Hitchcock. Based loosely on a couple of Somerset Maugham’s Ashenden stories.
Secret Agent has many of the hallmarks of quintessential Hitchcock: the tension between comedy and tragedy, the ambiguous moral scheme, the wealth of visual signifiers. The director never rated the film highly—yet it is impossible to watch it and remain unmoved. (Criterion)
This thriller is not one of Hitchcock’s best known English films, but it is full of startling set pieces and quirky characterisation.
About a British spy (Gielgud) who travels to Switzerland to kill an enemy agent, but murders the wrong man, it delights in the rivalry for Madeleine Carroll’s affections between Gielgud, Lorre and Young, and in the numerous opportunities for unusual thriller ingredients that the (studio-concocted) Swiss settings afford: a chase through a chocolate factory, murder atop a mountain, death in a quaint church.
Secret Agent (1936) Time Magazine June 15, 1936;
Secret Agent (Gaumont-British) introduces to U. S. cinema audiences a hero who should please them highly: Operative Ashenden of the British Intelligence Service, whose activities have been recorded so successfully in fiction by Author Somerset Maugham. Herein Ashenden (John Gielgud) is seen at the start of his career, stationed in Switzerland, where Author Maugham himself functioned as a Wartime spy. Detailed, with the assistance of a gruesome character known as the “Hairless Mexican” (Peter Lorre), to track down a German agent en route to Arabia, Ashenden proceeds with more pluck than perspicacity. Nonetheless, having inadvertently permitted the Hairless Mexican to push a harmless tourist (Percy Marmont) over a cliff, Ashenden and a beautiful blonde English spy (Madeleine Carroll) finally discharge their mission with the help of bombing planes. In contrast with oldtime fiction operatives like Sherlock Holmes, whose deductive gifts were superhuman, Ashenden belongs to the modern school of sleuths whose fallibility makes them plausible. In Secret Agent he scuffs about hotel corridors, deserted churches, glaciers, the backstairs of a chocolate factory, wearing an unhappy frown which is at times reminiscent of Charles Butterworth’s. Spy Ashenden’s behavior is, however, less of a hindrance than a help to the picture, is indicative of the enormity of the hostile forces with which he is trying to deal. Directed by England’s pudgy master of melodrama, Alfred Hitchcock (Thirty-Nine Steps, The Man Who Knew Too Much), Secret Agent is a first-rate sample of his knack of achieving speed by never hurrying, horror by concentrating on the prosaic. Its most irritating flaw is the old-fashioned tag shot of the faces of Gielgud and Carroll, at once clumsy and unnecessary. Spy Ashenden is not the only new cinema personage produced by Secret Agent. The picture also affords U. S. audiences a glimpse of the young actor who is currently London’s favorite Hamlet. An elegantly slim young man upon whose emaciated face a formidable nose between gimlet eyes suggests the front of a streamlined car, John Gielgud is the 32-year-old great-nephew of the late great Ellen Terry. A product of Westminster, Royal Academy of Dramatic Art and several years of British stock, he made his reputation in successive appearances as Romeo, Hamlet and King Lear at London’s Old Vic Theatre, branched out as a successful actor- manager in 1934. The most popular matinee idol England has seen in years, he experimented with the screen in Secret Agent because he admired Director Hitchcock, wanted to learn his methods at first hand. After each day’s shooting at Gaumont’s suburban studio, he scurried back to London to appear on the stage as Romeo. U. S. theatregoers will get a chance to inspect Actor Gielgud (pronounced Gillgood) in person next autumn when, under Producer Guthrie McClintic, he brings his Hamlet to the Manhattan stage.

The Belgian city of Aalst went ahead with its traditional Carnival parade on Sunday, despite calls from Israel to ban the event over its anti-Semitic floats and costumes.
This year’s parade included participants dressed in costumes of caricaturistic Jewish stereotypes, with some wearing hooked noses and exaggerated outfits meant to depict Orthodox Jews. One of the floats also included three Jewish caricatures placed alongside gold bars. Some revellers were also dressed in costumes meant to represent Nazi officers.
Lawmakers in the European Parliament also urged officials in Aalst to make sure this year’s parade was free from “manifestations of hatred.”
Earlier this week, Israeli Foreign Minister Israel Katz called on the Belgian government to ban the “hate-filled” parade altogether.
The city’s Carnival parade lost its UNESCO cultural heritage status last year over the “recurrence of racist and anti-Semitic representation.” Revelers then dressed in Nazi costumes, making fun of the move.
They are dressed up as Gestapo officers, mocking @UNESCO for dropping their carnival from its list of intangible cultural heritage ("UNESTAPO") https://t.co/j7p9rp7uoG — Raphael Ahren (@RaphaelAhren) February 23, 2020
Mayor defends parade
The city’s mayor dismissed criticism and calls for a ban on the festivities, saying “let Aalst be Aalst.”
“This is not an anti-Semitic parade,” Mayor Christoph D’Haese told reporters on Sunday. “Aalst is not an anti-Semitic city.”
24K Jews living in #Belgium were murdered in the Holocaust. Today, deadly #antisemitism is on the rise again throughout Europe. Events like the #AalstCarnaval parade that promote antisemitism and stoke hatred and potentially violence must be denounced by all segments of society. https://t.co/06AEIC4fKz — US Holocaust Museum (@HolocaustMuseum) February 23, 2020

Americans Report Openness To Voting for Trump in Landslide Numbers The Western Journal, February 22, 2020: A new poll finds that a wide majority of Americans are open to voting President Donald Trump in for a second term this November, with a significant increase from last year. The poll, conducted by The Hill and HarrisX and released Thursday, found 62 percent of registered voters expressed openness to casting their ballot for Trump, compared with only 38 percent who said they wouldn’t vote for him. The survey, which polled 1,001 registered voters between Feb. 14 and Feb. 15, with a margin of error of plus- or minus-3.1 percentage points, differed dramatically from a March 2019 poll on the matter from the same source. In that poll, 54 percent of registered voters were open to voting for the incumbent, while 46 percent said they’d never check the box for Trump. “The state of the economy proved to be the main reason voters would re-elect Trump, at 19 percent, up 7 percentage point from when this survey was last taken,” The Hill reported. “Other top reasons were the current field of Democratic Presidential candidates pushing ideas that are too liberal, at 12 percent, and his tough stance on immigration, at 9 percent.” Republican pollster B.J. Martino, a partner at The Tarrance Group, said America’s pocketbook was the driver behind the change. “The primary reason for that turnaround is public perception of the state of the economy. It is the single largest reason in the poll (at 19 percent), and the only reason that has shown significant growth from a year ago,” he said. “At the same time, observers should not sleep on the impact of views of the Democratic field,” he continued. “A strong economy combined with dubious field of Democrat is providing a clear opportunity for the Trump campaign.
