Islam's Insha Allah moment has arrived !


There is so much hapenning in relation to Islam all over the world that I believe it is their time of reckoning ! For the followers the " Insha Allah" moment has arrived regardless of how holy it may sound when spoken ! Let us look at only a few events to see how dangerous they can be and the way they think - unless you understand that , no progress is possible of any kind , talks , negotiations or in war ! And the democracies and other religious practioners , better watch out ! This is NOT Islamophobia or hatred against Islam - it is the collective wisdom or lack thereof of the modern day practioners of Islam that is suspect and disliked. It is not the jihadis alone that are extremists by their own right but the moderates who behave and act in a way that puts them in an extreme position.

First , the Islamists blamed the US policies for the massive tragedy called katrina in New Orleans - the people of that city suffered Allah's wrath according to those practioners of Islam and that is what they said at that time! If it was so then what about Allah's wrath in a wretched country like Na-Pak-istan ! Look at the tragedy that has caused havoc in Na-Pak-istan which will take decades to come out of or possibly never, if they continue on their current path of self destruction. There are many reason for the slow speed of donations as accepted and feared by the UN but the most important is that nobody likes Pakistan and their involvement in terrorist activity and that they are congenital liars all the time ! Here is the key issue of understanding for the Indians - the Na-Paki government initially rejected the donation of $ 5 million to help relief efforts ! They eventually relented when the US whacked them and asked to take it - they then made it appear as if THEY were doing India and Indians a favour by accepting that donation!! For all that we know it may perhaps have landed in some jihadi organisations's pocket , after all they must have decided where it goes ?

The lesson is if they have such misplaced and disgusting attitude to their own people's suffering in the name of their revered Allah , what can India really expect in any dialogue with that country ? It would be useful to find out what contribution have other Islamic countries and the Pakis around the world have made to date ? Has anyone ever come across any thing that the pakistanis have ever relented on except when they were beaten back in Kargil and the massive surrender of their armed forces in the eastern theatre. I was told that each of the 96000 or so soldier took a vow to break India. Those very people must be at the helm of affairs , specially the Army !

Second , the issue of building the mosque at ground zero - the site of 9/11 in New York. Much has been said and still more will be talked about whether the mosque , so conveniently now called as a cultural center for fostering peace and understanding amongst non-muslims in New York, be built or not. The Imam and his wife Daisy Khan have sung a completely new tune in the las few days - Daisy has cleverly twisted the argument by becoming a victim again , a typical strategy when they are pressured on the back foot ! She is giving the guilt feeling to those who oppose the move by saying there is so much hatred against Islam ! Dear Daisy , this is no hatred - it is people who are expressing themselves against your obstinate and obdurate attitude whereby you have obfuscated the whole argument - the issue was never the right to build but whether it was the right thing to do. If she wants Islam understood well in this country then here are a few suggestions to consider : 1. you do not need to teach us here about the virtues of freedom of religion - go and build Interfaith cultural centers in your country of origin to teach them how to respect other religions and respect for non-muslims - demonstrate reciprocity. But whjo wants to live in your country of origin anyway as there is no respect for human rights and other religions
2. There is poor collection for relief efforts in Pakistan - why not DELAY and DEFER the mosque project and contribute entire 100 million dollars for the those suffering in the name of Allah !! I am sure their Allah would rather want their downtrodden taken care of rather than entetainment center the American Muslims will enjoy in New York!! 3. The Imam has recently said that the American democratic system is Sharia compliant ! What an audacity to "approve" our way of life as Sharia compliant ! The important question we need to ask Is Sharia , democracy compliant ? Will you still call the draconian sharia law as humane ?

Very soon , the American media will get busy with election coverage and every politician from Senator '"Chop Shop" onwards, will suddenly discover the political correctness as an instument of electoral victory ! They will sell the opposition for the mosque for a few dollars more ! That will be the victory for the "Cordoba initiative" - Insha Allah , we pray it never does.
