Islamic Propaganda And The Muslim Street: Hyscience Receives Yet Another Threat

Topics: Understanding Islam

Many Muslims believe only Islamic websites that publish their own unique and distorted brand of non-reality, channeled to stir up gullible Muslims who whole-heartedly buy-in to the radical propaganda. In other words, if it comes from Aljazeera or a radical Islamist website, it's the "gospel" truth and they're willing to kill over it, because of it, and for it. And it is just such propaganda, that has encouraged yet another Muslim to send Hyscience another threat, this one less vulgar, but more global.

The lies, distortions and fabrications propagated by Islamic propaganda facilitates the development of such mindless behavior exhibited by our new emailer and many other Muslims, and has helped to perpetuate the Islamic culture of death (...in as much as you love life, the Muslim loves death and martyrdom)that originated at the Battle of Qadisiyya in the year 636, when the commander of the Muslim forces, Khalid ibn Al-Walid, sent an emissary with a message from Caliph Abu Bakr to the Persian commander, Khosru. The message stated: "You [Khosru and his people] should convert to Islam, and then you will be safe, for if you don't, you should know that I have come to you with an army of men that love death, as you love life." This account is recited in today's Muslim sermons, newspapers, and textbooks.

Hyscience is accustomed to receiving death threats from Islamists, and recently published our email to a terrorist in Islamabad, Pakistan that had emailed us a particularly vulgar letter threatening both us and our readers (warning - reading Hyscience can be dangerous to your health - at least according to one particularly dumb terrorist). Here is the uncut, unedited(uncorrected in grammer and punctuation) email that we received this morning from another poor misguided Islamist - this one threatening a nuclear war and even referring to himself as a cyber warrior.

my indication show that a hyscience play role with all these 9/11 hijackers taht on this websites http://www.welfarestate.com/binladen and aginst muslim people and other culture as well and the hyscience most link to hilter and white demonination which is not fear to the non white sole and it will lead to great murder and fight among many culture around the world and i warn nuclear weapon may have to play a role as well and it baes on a cult idealogy
I happen to agree with the "cult ideology" part, but his, not ours, or that of the majority of our readership.

After running an IP check we found out that our Muslim friend lives among us in NY City. His IP address is 149.123.48.28. His email address, should you wish to help him understand that he is somewhat misguided, is cyber_war44@yahoo.com (email seems to be good, our test email was not returned).

In last night's post entitled, "PA - Hamas admits responsibility for March blast: Aljazeera Ignores The Admission," I wrote of a Muslim friend whom I meet with at a local Starbucks and who I know to be an intelligent, well traveled, businessman that, like many Muslims, buys the propaganda put out by the Arab media, and particularly that of Aljazeera. I said that he's a good friend and that I enjoy our discussions, but I doubted that even the admission by Hamas for the blast that killed Palestinians would be believed by him, unless it came from Aljazeera (or other Arab press/web sites)- it would somehow be perceived as a fabrication of the non-Arab press, and that yes, "Al-Jazeera and the Arab Media are Propaganda Spewing Machines." As is the case with my Muslim friend at Starbucks, so it appears to be with our new Islamist reader in New York city.

In his 2004 NRO piece, "Dealing in Death," Steven Stalinsky said that as the war on terror continues, the voices coming from the Arab and Muslim world celebrating death over life have been heard more often than those criticizing this philosophy. In his piece, he referred to an editorial in the Lebanese Daily Star on May 13, 2004, "Berg's death augurs ill for Arab societies," that warned of what might happen if the issue of the Nick Berg beheading was not addressed (and it wasn't!):

"The region's kings, princes, and presidents need to learn a valuable lesson from this abhorrent incident: that fractured societies produce real-life theaters of shame like the Berg murder in a systemic manner, and that similar fractures are infecting their own societies. If the Berg beheading does not catapult the region's leaders from the world of lethargy to the world of vigorous action to establish law and order in their own societies -- and beginning with themselves -- then they will be considerably weakened.... What more is needed to galvanize Arab leaders into action? Today, a man named Berg was put to the sword; tomorrow, it could be the Arab nation torn asunder by the same savagery."
Unfortunately, the world is being torn asunder at the same time!
