Wake up!!!

It would be more accurate to characterize the clash of retrogressive Islam with the modern world not as a clash of civilizations or cultures but as a clash of ages. Islam is inherently averse to change. God's commandments must be immutable. Have you seen 1984, the screen adaptation of George Orwell's novel written in 1949? I highly recommended it. You can also read the novel online at http://www.online-literature .com/orwell/1984/

I recently got a bootlegged version of 1984 (we in Pakistan seem quite happy not paying for creative license), and I was dumbfounded by its symbolism. 1984 Oceania could be a stylized 2006 Pakistan , or Saudi Arabia , or Iran or - any other failed Muslim state. I wonder if Orwell had based his novel on Muslim thought. The allusion to communist East is clear yet his dystrophic message also clearly describes the effects of Islam on civil society. From the constant war mongering, the indoctrination of children, the "thought crime", lack of freedom and innovation, the banal salutation of brother and sister all are terrifying reminders of a Mohammedan society. Yet not even Orwell could have thought up the insidious mind control that the pedophile Mohammad conjured up, in his sick demented state, as the cult of Islam.

Consider the following: in Oceania the population are constantly fed propaganda via loudspeakers and television sets (which they cannot turn off), they have to wake up early in the morning to exercise, watched through the TV sets by an instructor. Muhammad's five times a day prayer was the basis of his mind control. I remember seeing the Chinese during the cultural revolution waving and reciting the little red book...

In Oceania they are constantly being reminded of their duty to the party, we in the Muslim world hear the call to prayer five times a day, our reminder of our duty to Muhammad's "message". Just like in Oceania Muslims refer to each other as Brothers and the women as their sisters (this also appears to be true of all cults that I know of). Just like in Oceania sex is considered a "bad thing" only fit for procreation. Just like in Oceania the core philosophy is based on conquering and conversion of the "other". Just like in Oceania war is a constant.

In Islam the populace is given a heavy dose of "you are God's chosen one" philosophy. This has the twin effect of making the "others" seem less than human and oneself in turn superior to the "others". Heavenly rewards are offered for those who convert the "others", and if someone strays away from the communal, he is a traitor worthy only of death. The dictionary of "new speak" and the "two minute hate" find loose parallels in the Muslim world. Thought is to be controlled, and ideas suppressed. To question is death.

The control of the Mohammedan cult is quite impressive. Muhammad's ridiculous ideology taps into our most basic of fears, the fear of the unknown, and provides the comfort and succor that billions of feeble-minded individuals long for. It is surprising that even in this age of reason and rational thought Muslims would cling to their flawed faith with such a fanatical zeal. Yet this is a death embrace. It drags the individual and their societies farther and farther down into the Dark Age rot that we see today as the Muslim world. Free thought and ideas are stifled, the arts, sciences, culture are all subject to censure. Without the free flow of ideas, societies suffocate and they can neither imagine nor create. Images of dirty broken streets and electricity cuts in the movie exactly mirror our daily existence in these Muslim hellholes.

In 1984 Winston writes in his diary "To the future or to the past, to a time when thought is free, when men are different from one another and do not live alone -- to a time when truth exists and what is done cannot be undone: From the age of uniformity, from the age of solitude, from the age of Big Brother, from the age of doublethink -- greetings!" Replace the blue overalls for the beards and the dress sense of Muhammad, replace the rigidity of action by the imitation of Muhammad and we have our own dystopia. The last entry Winston writes in his diary is that "freedom is to say that two and two makes four. If this is granted everything else follows". At least Winston could dream of a future that could be better, I look around at the madness of my fellow citizens and I cannot.

Here is my fear. In this Golden age, interaction with these decaying Muslim societies will despoil those fragile civilizations that have fought for freedom of thought and justice, who have built, created, and progressed technologically. These decrepit Muslim societies could drag us all down into the Middle Ages, their perverted thoughts corrupting the sane. The savagery of Islam will destroy the delicate social balance that is required for justice, deliberation, tolerance and mutual respect. Only the intangible "frame of mind" separates the prosperous west from the rotting Muslim east. As interaction with the Muslims increase will draconian laws proliferate, how can these advanced societies deal with the crass Mohammedans living amidst them? If they sacrifice those tenets that they hold dear, like Freedom of Religion thought and expression will it not be the beginning of the end. Yet how else can one deal with a totalitarian system like Islam?
