Rush is Wrong about Faisal Shahzad & Islamic Enmity

Rush Limbaugh read from Shahzad's statement on his radio show, and posted this transcript.  Here is the most significant quote from his Wednesday 10/6/10  broadcast.


We chalk up their behavior to our own analysis when we deny what they say to our own peril.  They're not poor.  They're not wandering aimless.  They have not had their futures taken away by the evil United States.  It's not even our support for Israel.  They say that, and I'm sure it irritates 'em, but it's our very existence as a free nation with freedom of religion that irritates 'em, that makes us a target, pure and simple.  It's who we are.  And there's nobody who can persuade them to leave us alone by virtue of his own countenance, his own background, his own history, his own words, his own speeches.  We could have a president even worse than Obama who does nothing but openly criticize and run down and apologize this country each and every day.  Still wouldn't matter.  The fact that we exist is what makes us the enemy.  [Emphasis added.]

    Islamic hatred of America is not a function of our system, our freedom, our foreign policy or our existence.  It is a function of  not being Muslim and rejecting Islam.  The religious component of Islam is a fraudulent blend of  plagiarized & distorted scriptures, apocryphal texts  and ancient paganism.  Because it is an impious fraud, it can not stand up to comparison or criticism.  Islam can only respond with arrogance and violence. It must therefore eliminate all rivals.  Islam can not tolerate the existence of a superior & more successful culture.

    Christians, Jews, Sabeans & Zoroastrians must be converted or subjugated as dhimmis; humbled, humiliated and extorted.   Atheists & pagans must be converted or killed.  Muslims are commanded to march against them and offer three alternatives:
  • Embrace Islam.
    • Join the jihad and share in the spoils. 
    • Remain in place and receive nothing.
  • Live as humiliated, subjugated & extorted dhimmis under Islamic domination ("People of the book" only.)
  • Die. 
    Islamic law, best expressed in the Shafi'ite manual of Fiqh: Umdat as-Salik,  is based on what Moe said and did; the Qur'an & Sunnah.  Military expeditions against kuffar are a religious obligation binding upon Muslims in every year. If that is too ambiguous for you, I have a quote from Al-Shafi'i that will settle the matter.  "The least that the imam must do is that he allow no year to pass without having organised a military expedition by himself, or by his raiding parties, according to the Muslims' interest, so that the jihad will only be stopped in a year for a (reasonable) excuse."

    Islamic law also tells us what the caliph does in the regular course of business. [Emphasis and link added.]
o9.8 The caliph (o25) makes war upon Jews, Christians, and Zoroastrians (N: provided he has first invited them to enter Islam in faith and practice, and if they will not, then invited them to enter the social order of Islam by paying the non-Muslim poll tax (jizya, def: o11.4) -which is the significance of their paying it, not the money itself-while remaining in their ancestral religions) (O: and the war continues) until they become Muslim or else pay the non-Muslim poll tax (O: in accordance with the word of Allah Most High,
"Fight those who do not believe in Allah and the Last Day and who forbid not what Allah and His messenger have forbidden-who do not practice the religion of truth, being of those who have been given the Book-until they pay the poll tax out of hand and are humbled" (Koran 9.29),
That is based on Surah At-Taubah 29 which commands waging war against Jews & Christians. Follow the link and scroll down to the second footnote. It quotes the genocide hadith and remarks on the imposition of jizya.  The jihad imperative is so clear and obvious that it is not amplified in the footnote.

    Abdullah Yusuf Ali, in his footnote, concentrates on jizya.  Mohammad Asad, a convert from Judaism, tries to  deceive us with a variation on the Shi'ite assertion of  general conditionality, asserting that all jihad is defensive, never aggressive. Sayyid Abul Ala Maududi explains two grounds for attacking Jews & Christians and spends the next four paragraphs explaining jizya.
.   
    Tafsir Al-Jalalayn  is fairly terse,  adding some details.  Tafsir Ibn Abbas gives nothing more than translation. Ibn Kathir's Tafsir is the most loquacious, giving us this gem of explicit explanation. "This honorable Ayah was revealed with the order to fight the People of the Book, after the pagans were defeated, the people entered Allah's religion in large numbers, and the Arabian Peninsula was secured under the Muslims' control. Allah commanded His Messenger to fight the People of the Scriptures, Jews and Christians, on the ninth year of Hijrah, and he prepared his army to fight the Romans and called the people to Jihad announcing his intent and destination." [Emphasis added.]

    The Profiteer is quoted  in a statement which confirms the jihad imperatives and conveys super important information.

Sahih Bukhari Volume 1, Book 8, Number 387:
Narrated Anas bin Malik:
Allah's Apostle said, "I have been ordered to fight the people till they say: 'None has the right to be worshipped but Allah.' And if they say so, pray like our prayers, face our Qibla and slaughter as we slaughter, then their blood and property will be sacred to us and we will not interfere with them except legally and their reckoning will be with Allah." Narrated Maimun ibn Siyah that he asked Anas bin Malik, "O Abu Hamza! What makes the life and property of a person sacred?" He replied, "Whoever says, 'None has the right to be worshipped but Allah', faces our Qibla during the prayers, prays like us and eats our slaughtered animal, then he is a Muslim, and has got the same rights and obligations as other Muslims have." [Emphasis added.]

Review what we learned from that saying:
  • Moe was ordered to fight us until we become Muslims.. 
  • Our blood and property are not sacred to Muslims.
  • We have no rights. 
    Because Moe was ordered to fight us, all Muslims are ordered to fight us.  Moe is their role model, whom they are commanded to emulate. Unfortunately, that has consequences in the real world.  When America won the war of revolution and became independent, her shipping lost the protection previously afforded by the Royal Navy.  The Barbary Pirates attacked our shipping and extorted tribute, which nearly bankrupted the new nation.  Thomas Jefferson and John Adams asked by what right  they attacked us.  The answer is relevant to the present case.

The ambassador answered us that [the right] was founded on the Laws of the Prophet (Mohammed), that it was written in their Koran, that all nations who should not have answered their authority were sinners, that it was their right and duty to make war upon them wherever they could be found, and to make slaves of all they could take as prisoners, and that every Mussulman (or Muslim) who should be slain in battle was sure to go to heaven.
