Parsing Abdul Hadi's message

Submitted by Prashant (United States), Dec 20, 2021 at 17:16

Dear Dr Pipes, Your reader Abdul Hadi spoke many lies in his above letter to you. Sometimes when we read long passages, we tend not to read and understand every sentence carefully. I will parse out and expose the lies and/or exaggerations that Mr Hadi included in his letter without providing any evidence for them. After each lie reproduced verbatim, I will include a parenthetical comment of mine. Lies are common parts of Islamic propaganda. When we find them, we need to expose them. Here are Mr Hadi's misstatement in order in which they occur in his letter:

Lie # 1: "Out of these, a lot of them are just organizations that protested against CAA and NRC, these were bills that were directed toward removing all Muslims from India". (Wikipedia defines India's CAA 2019 as "The Citizenship (Amendment) Act, 2019 was passed by the Parliament of India on 11 December 2019. It amended the Citizenship Act, 1955 by providing a pathway to Indian citizenship for persecuted religious minorities from Afghanistan, Bangladesh and Pakistan who are Hindus, Sikhs, Buddhists, Jains, Parsis or Christians, and arrived in India before the end of December 2014.)

Lie # 2: "there are a lot of Christian terror organizations and attacks that go under the radar as well that go under the radar only because of media.". (It will help if Mr Hadi can tell us the names of a few Christian terror organizations that kill people with the same convenience as the Islamic organizations like al qaeda, ISIS or the Talibans).

Lie # 3: "..There are Hindus in Pakistan as well that are living peacefully as ever." (Pakistan is 98% Islamic. So the percentage of Hindus is at most 2% of the population. Can we reduce the percentage of Muslims in our western and eastern democracies to 2%? It will make our world a very violence-free place)

Lie # 4: "...but you didn't mention the fact that BJP and RSS are currently working on making India a Hindu country." (India is still a constitution democracy. Asia and Africa are full of Islamic theocracies. Let us first abolish these Islamic theocracies).

Lie # 5: "Hundreds of thousands of Muslim families are killed every year in India because of eating beef" (oh Yeah, can you produce some beheaded heads and torn limbs belonging to these victims).

Lie # 6: "Logically speaking, the device you typed all of this on is owed to a Muslim man." (Al-Khwarizmi was surely a great mathematician. But, saying that he deserves entire credit for all modern computing devices is like saying that Isaac Newton deserves credit for all modern cars and planes.)

Islamic hypocrisy survives due to Muslims' lies, omissions, exaggerations, and misrepresentations. Any time we find these lies and exaggerations, we need to highlight and oppose them.
