what is wrong with islam.

... Even many muslims are happy that there are non-muslims around who expose islam's inherent fascism, absolutism, closed-minded-ness etc. because they know that they cannot do it themselves (although they also know that they should be at the forefront in doing it).

The kuran contains contradictions, ambiguities, inconsistencies, mistakes and even idiocies. Muslims are not allowed to develop the ability to recognize them. Fortunately, some muslims, because of their contacts with non-muslims, do develop the ability to see them. But, unfortunately, most of these muslims do not have the courage to speak out openly about the defects in the kuran.

The kuran is not a book of knowledge or guidance. It is a book of manipulation through intimidations and seductions. Muslim propaganda would have everyone believe that kuran is the sourcebook of all knowledge and final perfect guidance. This belief is not only wrong but harmful in the extreme. Muslim societies remain backward, angry, irrational, frustrated, tyrannized, misogynic, feudal, backward-oriented, self-glorifying, incapable of honest self-criticism and introspection, incapable of bringing forth good long-term political leaders, incapable of creating relaxed non-violent societies because of this wrong belief that the kuran is a sourcebook of knowledge and good guidance.

Islam is based on fear, fear of being a non-muslim, fear of being thrown into hell for being a non-muslim and above all fear of being discriminated against and vilified for being a non-muslim. There is in the kuran no convincing or pedagogically valuable argument in favor of the good-grand claims, promises and declarations made by islam and muslims. Hence islam and its laws have no other choice but to resort to intimidations, threats of violence or seductions and false-sweet promises for acquiring and holding on to power on the minds and bodies of human beings.

Muslims are the first and most pitiable victims of Islamic fascism and manipulations. But unfortunately muslims react to this according to the maxim: "if you can't beat them join them". From 624 AD onwards the arab victims of islam realized that they cannot defeat islam and hence it is "cleverer" for them to join islam and partake of its spoils. "Join the victor-aggressor-plunderer and pocket a part of the loot and be invited to join in new acts of profitable maraudery" – this scheme has repeated itself all through Islamic history and continues even today. Even modern-day muslim immigrants or "guest-workers" are part of this scheme by the very nature of their Islamic upbringing, be it knowingly or unknowingly.

Muslims are devising various methods to suppress criticism of islam. Any slightest criticism of islam will be called as blasphemy, rebellion against the one and only god, hurting the feelings and sentiments of muslims (who supposedly never did anything like that themselves), disrespect for others' faiths (which the muslims supposedly never did or do), racial profiling and instigation, misunderstanding islam, ignorance about islam and its (supposed) greatness and goodness etc. Critics of islam are even accused of wanting to build gas-chambers for muslims and muslims having to face criticism of islam are presented to be as helpless and hapless as jews under Nazis. Unfortunately there are some non-muslims who support the muslims in this trick which the muslims have devised to silence criticism and critics of islam. Muslims are training young boys and even women to kill critics of islam. A woman is usually not suspected of being a killer and hence she can approach a to-be-victim more easily. And young boys usually go unpunished after they have killed someone.

Europeans are still too busy enjoying life and ignoring islam's evils that have eaten deeply into the thinking of the european politcal class. Among european policians there are still many who think they must make good name for themselves among muslims and islam deserves tolerance like any other "underdog" philosophy.
