One of the common arguments against the critics of Jihad is that it wrongly associates Islam with terrorism. It's a "religion of peace" we are told. No matter how many examples of Muslim clerics preaching violent Jihad are offered, and no matter how many Jihadist's themselves claim they are are acting in the name of Allah, we still hear the same refrain. Even worse, the media often glosses over or completely ignores the constant threats and Koranic justifications often associated with todays terrorism.
Today's example is Indian Muslim cleric Ashraf Mohamedy, who claims that every Muslim should be a terrorist.
He also claims that America would be better off under sharia law, and that women who shun the hijab are invitations to rape.
"Every Muslim Should Be Proud to Be a Fundamentalist Muslim"
"Another misconception among non-Muslim brothers and sisters is that Muslims are fundamentalists and terrorists. They say and allege that you are terrorists and fundamentalists. Let's analyze the meaning of fundamentalism. If a person wants to be a good doctor, then he should know, he should follow, and should practice the teachings of medicine. In other words, he should be a fundamentalist in the field of medicine.
"If a person wants to be a very good scientist, he should know, he should follow, and he should practice the teachings of science. In other words, he should be a fundamentalist in the field of science. Similarly, if a person wants to be a good mathematician, he should know, he should follow, and he should practice the teachings of mathematics. In other words, he should be fundamentalist in the field of mathematics.
"We cannot paint all fundamentalists with the same brush, for a fundamentalist robber causes harm to the society, and that is highly disagreed upon. That is highly irresponsible. But at the same time, a fundamentalist doctor causes good in society. He cures and he heals, and he is much desired by society.
"I am proud to be a fundamentalist Muslim, because I know, I follow, and I strive to practice the teachings of Islam. Every Muslim should be proud to be a fundamentalist Muslim. That is because none of the teachings of Islam causes any harm to society. On the contrary, it causes.... it gives benefits to society. On the basis of this knowledge, every Muslim should be proud to be a fundamentalist Muslim." [...]
"I Repeat: Every Muslim Should Be a Terrorist"
"I would stress that every Muslim should be a terrorist. I repeat: Every Muslim should be a terrorist. A terrorist is a person who terrifies others, who terrorizes others. That is precisely the reason we have the police. As soon as the robber sees the policeman, he is terrified, he is terrorized. Similarly, the Muslims should terrorize the anti-social elements in society. He should terrorize the robber, the decoy, the rapist. I know that 'terrorist' is taken as a concept of a person who terrorizes the common man. But we Muslims should be terrorists for the anti-social elements in society."
A fundamentalist scientist would by definition have to reject new ideas in science. So that means scientists of Einstein's era would have been forced to consider the Theory of Relativity blasphemy to fundamentalist science. All ideas would have to be derived from the first scientist (whoever that was), as the sole source of scientific fundamentalism.
So much for logic.
Anyway, it sounds like the terrorists are policemen of sharia, and the infidels are the "anti-social elements of society".
