CAIR Lashes out at term Islamofascism

Topics: Understanding Islam

More Muslims have been killed by Muslims, more Muslims continue to be victimized by Muslims, and more Muslims are in danger of dying at the hands of Muslims than non-Muslims. This is a subject that demands a wider examination and attention than has been given by Muslims and non-Muslims alike. - Salim Mansur

Chad at In The Bullpen says that CAIR is very unhappy with the term, "Islamofascism".

In other words, the term they have a real problem with is:

Islamofascism, Islamofascism, Islamofascism, Islamofascism, Islamofascism, Islamofascism, Islamofascism, Islamofascism, Islamofascism, Islamofascism, Islamofascism, Islamofascism, Islamofascism, Islamofascism, Islamofascism, Islamofascism, Islamofascism, Islamofascism.
On the other hand, I'm quiet comfortable with the term Islamofascism, as you can see. For CAIR's benefit, the term is very appropriate when applied to a religious ideology, Islam, with a radical political agenda (Islamists), almost all of whom are jihadists. All Muslims are not Islamofascists. We are at war against Islamofascism, the Islamists, the jihadists. We are not at war against Islam or Muslims. Many Muslims are killed by Islamofascists/Islamists/jihadists - that is why, in fact, CAIR does not truly represent Muslims - else CAIR would be against Islamofascism/Islamists/jihadists - which they are not, and quite the contrary - instead, support jihadists. Let's recall that "More Muslims have been killed by Muslims, more Muslims continue to be victimized by Muslims, and more Muslims are in danger of dying at the hands of Muslims than non-Muslims".

CAIR knows this, which is why they don't want you and me to know this. It makes it harder for them to snow us while they implement their Islamofascist agenda by implementing al-taqiya, as they are doing now.

Chad has more...

For the further benefit of CAIR (and anyone else that wants to make you believe the equivalent of an 800 pound gorilla being equal to a canary) - here's a more complete clarification:

Islamofascism/Islamofascist - In general, Islamofascism refers to the notion that Islam is not so much a religion as it is a political ideology that in many ways resembles "fascism" (i.e. the modern common definition of fascism which equates it with totalitarianism, as opposed to the original capital-F Italian-style Fascism). More specifically, Islamofascism is used to describe either the social structure of a society living under strict Islamic shari'a law, or the interpersonal behavior of someone who acts in accordance with true Islam. An Islamofascist can either be an Islamic fundamentalist, or someone who uses violence or bullying tactics to impose Islamic principles on others -- or, more bluntly, a Muslim bigot whose religious beliefs are the source of his bigotry. Radio talkshow host Michael Savage has repeatedly claimed on air that he coined the term "Islamofascist" in his first book, and even offered a reward to anyone who could prove he was wrong. However, the term was first used on LGF at least nine months before Savage's book came out: Robert Crawford 3/2/2002 01:43PM. But in reality "Islamo-fascism" was coined at least a decade earlier; the first known use of the term was on September 8, 1990 by journalist Malise Ruthven in a column about religion for Britain's Independent newspaper, in which Ruthven wrote, ""Nevertheless there is what might be called a 'political problematic' affecting the Muslim world. In contrast to the heirs of some other non-Western traditions, including Hinduism, Shintoism and Buddhism, Islamic societies seem to have found it particularly hard to institutionalise divergences politically: authoritarian government, not to say 'Islamo-fascism', is the rule rather than the exception from Morocco to Pakistan." There may be earlier citations as well
. Furthermore, what in the hell else would you call an agenda of world domination over "non-believers" and seeking the submission of everyone to sharia law under one theopolitical ideology?
