Following the attacks in France on the staff at Charlie Hebdo and the massacre of Nigerians by Boko Haram the Obama administration is having trouble describing the problem of Islamic violence.
Mr. Obama and his staff cannot even bring themselves to use the current politically correct term Islamic extremist.
Even when mainstream Muslim imam Anjem Choudary declares a state of war with Charlie Hebdo and France, it is dismissed as extremism and a warping of a peaceful religion.
In an open letter released after the slaying of 17 people in France the imam of Islam stated:
“Contrary to popular misconception, Islam does not mean peace but rather means submission to the commands of Allah alone. Therefore, Muslims do not believe in the concept of freedom of expression, as their speech and actions are determined by divine revelation and not based on people’s desires.”
He went on to demand that Western societies be “sensible and sensitive to the emotions and the feelings of the Muslims”, and accused governments of refusing to “nip it in the bud”. In other words, Western societies must submit to the dictates of Islam. There are no other options.
The atrocities of the French and Nigerian massacres have been praised by leaders of Al-Queda and the Islamic State, there is very little actual push back from main stream Islam outside the Middle East. It should be understood that the vast majority of Muslims agree with the statements of Anjem Choudary either openly or privately.
For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.-Ephesians 6:12
