Real Islam and Imaginary Islam

Boko Haram

Perhaps even the glitterati of Hollywood have finally come to realize what much of the rest of the world has known for centuries--that Islam is anything but a religion of peace.

A group of Hollywood celebrities recently decided to boycott the ritzy Beverly Hills Hotel because it's owned by the Sultan of Brunei (Sultan Hassanal Bolkiah) whose native country has implemented Sharia Law criminal codes that mandate beatings, severing of limbs and stoning to death for adultery and homosexuality.

In reality, the boycott has less to do with Islam and more to do with its condemnation of such offenses as adultery and homosexuality.

More to the point: Adultery and homosexuality are widely practiced among Hollywood elites, so the tinsel crowd has likely chosen to vent its wrath against the sultan and his nation for condemning those practices rather than against Brunei's state religion that mandates capital punishment and dismemberment for sexual transgressions.

However, the Hollywood glitterati actually found the courage to demand that Brunei renounce Islam before they renounce their boycott of the Beverly Hills Hotel.

But anyone who understands Islam understands that asking a predominantly Muslim nation such as Brunei to renounce Islam would be akin to asking Israel to renounce Judaism in favor of Roman Catholicism.  It simply isn't going to happen.

Thus, Islam is the real problem for the Hollywood elites rather than Sharia Law. Unfortunately, the elites either refuse to recognize that problem, or they're too cowardly to admit it.

Those who are bold enough to admit it such as Dutch politician Geert Wilders, author Salman Rushdie or Ayann Hirsi Ali are either threatened with death (Wilders, Rushdie) or are publicly humiliated (Ali) by left-wing fascists who have become puppets for Islamofascists and their propaganda outlets such as CAIR.

While the boycott has attracted some attention, another incident recently occurred that gained the world's attention. That incident involved 200 Nigerian school girls that were kidnapped by a group named Boko Haram.

Boko Haram is an Islamic terror group that believes it has been annointed by Allah to wage war against Christianity and all non-Muslims.

Boko Haram has long been known as an Islamic terrorist organization, although the Obama administration has refused to recognize the group that way. As for its worldview: Its followers are said to be influenced by the Koranic phrase which says: "Anyone who is not governed by what Allah has revealed is among the transgressors". Boko Haram promotes a version of Islam which makes it "haram", or forbidden, for Muslims to take part in any political or social activity associated with Western society. This includes voting in elections, wearing shirts and trousers or receiving a secular education.

Why did the group kidnap the girls? Because according to Islam, women are considered as nothing more than chattel to be used by men for servitude and sex. As such, the western world's insistence that women have the same rights as men infuriates the Islamic world that considers women to be inferior. If you don't believe that, then ask Ayann Hirsi Ali.

That's what Islam is really all about. It's not a peaceful religion as many of its western propagandists want us to believe.

And yet we're told that Christianity wages war against women and gays. While the Bible condemns homosexuality and adultery as sins, it doesn't order Christians to go out and dismember or murder those who practice those lifestyles.

Rather, it commands Christians to go out and share the love of Christ and the Gospel with those who practice those lifestyles. Islam, however, commands its adherents to administer the sword of Allah against those who practice those lifestyles.

That's real Islam. Certainly, the majority of the world's two billion Muslims don't practice real Islam because they're cultural Muslims.

However, those who do practice real Islam do so in obedience to their religion, their prophet and the Koran. And that's a reality that can't be denied.
