Islam's ''Image problem' doesn't begin to cover it''
Topics: Understanding IslamJihad Watch's Board Vice President Hugh Fitzgerald discusses the "image problem" for Islam posed by the ongoing global cartoon rage, which he says points out a key problem for the world's Muslims - for them, as demonstrated by the cartoon rage, Muhammad is even more important than Allah, the center of their religion, and Muslims are in a quandry:
(...) And here he is, Muhammad, the model for all time, for all mankind. ... It is for his "honor" that Muslims are ransacking KFC's and setting Ronald McDonald afire.(...) But Muhammad is not the model for all mankind as far as Infidels are concerned. Those not completely brainwashed by the cult of personality par excellence that Muslims have built around Muhammad will make up their own minds about him, based on their own readings of the Hadith and Sira.
(...) The Qur'an, the Hadith, the Sira are now a click away. Any inquiring Infidel can read them, or read as much of them as he can possibly endure. Any Infidel can go to the Muslim websites, of the ask-imam.org variety, and see what kinds of questions Muslims ask and what answers are given.
(...) This knowledge can't be prevented from being spread.
(...) We will be watching to see what damage they inflict there (in Europe) on Infidel laws, customs, manners, and what greater degrees of unpleasantness and tension they introduce in daily life, what greater expenses will be required for monitoring and other security measures, and what greater sense of physical danger is felt by those Infidels in Europe.Read it all ...(...) Infidels are now alert, and more are becoming more wary every day. ... Thanks, in the main, to Muslims themselves: to their displays of violence, hysteria, and hate, as in the demonstrations and attacks worldwide that have been prompted by, or have taken as their excuse in some cases, those utterly anodyne cartoons.
(...) It's an impossible situation for the world's Muslims. Infidels, in every land, have started paying close attention to what is happening to Infidels in other places, at the hands of Muslims within their own countries or even within Muslim lands
(...) "Image problem" doesn't begin to cover it.
