Here is a terrifying truth about your Muslim neighbor, the guy that owns that nice Lebanese restaurant and the nice shy Muslim woman who you see in when you walk your dog, almost all traditional Muslims have some support for the ideas of the most radical, militant and fanatical terrorists out there.

This might sound pretty harsh, and it is – and it should make you think about it for a moment. This is not a guess or an invention, it i s based on annual research and polls presented to Muslims around the world – and especially ones in the Western part of it, and in all of them you will be shocked to find that, for example, Muslims in the UK strongly believe that blasphemy should be punished, or that directly insulting the prophet should be punishable, and by punishable they do not mean someone writing you a ticket.

So while Muslims all over the world might shake their heads and sigh over the Paris attacks, they will not truly condemn the “Charlie Hebdo” massacre because “why should they paint hurtful images of the prophet to begin with?”, and that is exactly the kind of connection many traditional and Western Muslims have with the most radical murderers out there.

An easy way to spot this is the answer “Yes, but…”, notice Muslims defend terror, murder and even calls for genocide by saying “yes, but…”

The Americans brought this on themselves by invading Iraq.

The Danish papers should not have published those images.

The French should not have bombed those villages in Syria.

The Jewish girl should not have been somehow connected to the State of Israel.

There is no “but”, killing innocent people, targeting them, months of planning on how to murder the most coffee drinking Parisians does not have any type or kind of excuse. Try and think of one major terror attack of the recent years that did not directly targeted unsuspecting civilians, its not easy to find one. There is no “struggle” or “fight” there is just a routine killing of anyone who is not liked by the radical Muslims, in Turkey in Sinai and in Paris.

Before anything, we stand with the good people of the French republic, as any normal and decent human being living in these times should. However.

It has not been one full year since the Charlie Habdo slaughter, it has not been three years since Muslim fanatics murdered a young blond haired girl at the yard at her school by pulling her hair and executing her. France has been fully aware of the threat of ISIS and all other muslim groups and has done little to stop them from operating in France, whatever little they did do failed miserably last night in Paris.

The failure to know your enemy, to realize who it is, what it wants and how he plans to get it is so fundamental to any struggle and yet the French has done nothing to try and advance on that front. Religious fanatics, coming from the Islam religion, are not even called what they are on the media, they are “attackers”, their victims have “died” and not “murdered”. There is no doubt, a culture that will not stand up and defend itself is not worthy of life – the France republic is heading this way and fast.

So, it is no longer “just the Jews” or “just those freedom loving caricaturists in Charlie Hebdo”, its everyone, all the time – in practically any country in Europe. It has always been that way – but the French diluted themselves into thinking that they would dodge this bullet, by being nice, by sympathizing with terrorists in other countries, because some terror is somehow justified ???

And now its time to pay up, and as always it is the worst possible time because Europe had just introduced hundreds of thousands of Islamic immigrants into its very heart, without records, papers or any idea who these people are. These people will now add to the already existing multitude of European citizens who actively plan to carry out attacks against their own neighbors and the country they live in.

If there was ever a time for militant atheism it is right now, incorporate it into your laws France, step up to the challenge, take your religious citizens and demand of them a clear stand – are you with a secular, democratic republic or are you with you blood lustful god?.

A visitor from the 80s’, merely 30 years ago, would have been amazed at the stories newspapers tell today, the U.S. is making peace with Cuba which for some reason was left as an enemy while normal relations with Russia had been restored 20 years ago. The small island nation somehow managed to maintain its social revolution way longer then the mother country and also carried its obligatory title as the enemy of the American people.

President Obama takes care of this one, and as his term as president nears a close he is moving all the pieces so relations with Cuba are restored. However one must wonder if this change will really change the day to day reality of the simple Cuban teenager who is pimped daily for what many Americans would consider lunch money, or to the Cuban young man how is harassing tourists along the beach for a couple of green dollars.

With all the above criticism of the current U.S. president Cuba is actually a normal move, it is right in reach of the American continent, it is almost Miami’s closest city. It is the moves in the Muslim world that Obama makes that should raise concerns, mainly due to the lack of any sense of those moves – apart from one – letting someone else do the dirty work.

A long time ago president Obama choose to address the Arab Muslim nations by rushing to Cairo for his first speech, many thought this signaled that the man himself was a Muslim and a member of the Muslim brotherhood, however now Obama is busy courting the “other side” of Islam – the Shia Muslims. He had given up on his Sonni Muslim, many of whom are long lasting American allies like Saudi Arabia and Egypt, and turned to the Iranians (not Arabs but Persians) for what can only be seen as desperate cooperation.

Somehow all of this can be told as a simple story, the Americans want order, they thought that the Sonni Muslims could provide it but it failed and now they are trying with the Shia Muslims in hope that Iran carries more weight than its previous allies. The only problems here are that both sides of the Muslim world are hostile to each other – and that everyone is aware of this American “dance”, which makes this kind very awkward.

A week. Because God is so perfect so awesome and powerful it can be done, but, hold on, if it took a week does it not mean that the all-powerful and unlimited is actually limited – when in top speed God can create a part of our visible universe in a week. Actually not a week, because God took the last day off to rest. Why would an perfect creator take time off – and from all things – to rest?, that implies that God got tired, can God be tired?.

Some would argue that the idea of the week is to make us humble humans more comfortable, that on our limited perception of time (which is indeed limited) we can not grasp the actions and the speed in which the creator acts. For those flexible believers those 6 days of work (plus one of rest) can be pressed into the first moments of the big bang or stretched across hundreds of millions of years until, say, the earth forms and starts to cool.

Here we get to a second, maybe even more important point, we are told that the bible (old testament) is the word of God, it was given to the Hebrews and it – literally, the book of God made by God, if so, why would the perfect makers who is also the perfect author of books not avoid mentioning time altogether and walk around this problematic issue of timing (and maybe also not to be embarrassed by the one day rest thing).

To us atheists it is simple, no mystery here, this was made up by humans, who desperately needed to explain a lot of things like who made what (God) when did it happen (in the beginning) and for whom was it made (why us of course), these ancient authors also added to this a format of the days of the week, as long as you’re laying down the basic rules might as well frame time into days. If a perfect creator would exist this being would probably not need to rest and would not take a week to work his magic.

The second week of September is always difficult, well not always – it has been difficult for the last 13 years, since September 2001. Almost everyone remembers president Bush speech in which he said the Islam is the religion of peace, and maybe the same thought had passed in the mind of the current president last weekend.

Obama’s ISIL speech made one false accusation and labeled the fighters of the Islamic state (ISIL, or ISIS if you want), for some reason the president wants to deny this group of people the only one thing that they truly are – Islamic.

How can an American president even start to give out marks for religious capabilities to anyone? from when did the main job of politicians start with correcting the names by which we can groups of people who are united in a common cause (as wrong and as prevent as it might seem to them, or us).

So we find ourselves, 13 years later, with the same distracting and fully wrong message ringing in our ears – the exact opposite of the evident truth is told to the masses in hope that they will take the bait and… keep calm and carry on?

It does not work any more, even fanatic dazed neo-liberals (ones that prefer full rights to the religious and reduced rights to secular) everyone knows that this fight is about religion, that its main purpose and call is for religion – and much more than that, these Islamic fighters now in middle east are in fact reenacting the same path of the historic birth of Islam, if the prophet would have arrived today he would find in them the perfect partners to share the prophecy, in this sense these people are (to Islam) perfect believers.

So please, first out of the respect for the intelligence of the general population and second for the simple idea of understanding who you are facing – say the truth, ISIL is everything but not Islamic, it is as Islamic as it gets.

The Yazidis, an old and ancient religious community in Iraq sent a woman to beg for their lives in front of the national assembly of the Iraqi people. They are currently being butchered by the forces of Sonni Islam, ISIS, who is making its way through the Iraqi state.

The world is mostly indifferent, apart from a couple hundred people who marched in support of Christians (not Yazidis) in Brussels, as what the police calls a some “young” people shouted and cursed them as they passed (saying that all Christians should be killed).

The Yazidis are not as well prepared as the Kurds who are getting ready to face ISIS, they have been misled and misread the upcoming storm, now they are left for themselves – they are stranded in an area that would not support an life, so it is either they are killed by ISIS or die of hunger and dehydration.

If you need to do one thing today is to dedicated 2 and a half minutes to see this woman, desperately begging for the lives of basically everyone she knows, this is not the sexy Gaza Palestinians who during 30 days of active fighting had list an estimated 800 non combatants to what they called a “Genocide” attempt by Israel, the Yazdis do not get 3 Billion dollar annual support from Qatar, nor do they have the UN call an urgent meeting on their behalf, in the last week estimated are that up to 3,000 of them have been murdered – and more will follow if this is not stopped.

From Athens to Paris the old continent shakes, its old children watch in horror as their neighborhoods reveal their changed face to the world. While Europe was busy making money and buying homes with bigger gardens, better cars and nicer clothes a wave of Muslim immigrants changed it forever.

These Muslims are mostly made up of regular normal people, many of them hard working, many respect the law and the country that accepted them, however there those who do not accept and who do not respect, and in the Muslim world they are the ones that count.

And so Europe wakes up to a frenzy of anti semitic violence, in action as well as in rhetoric, from Italy to Germany, violent demonstrations who do not care to pretend its about “zionism” or “Israel”, oh no, its about the Jews. These old Jews who from an early and tender age are represented to many in the Muslim world as the the worst thing ever, people who happened to be born to a Jewish mother are the target of millions of uneducated and intolerant Muslims.

And no European country stands up to protect its own citizens from this blatant racist attack, in Germany police lend the police car speaker so Muslim protestors could yell “death to the Jews” using it, in France a small force of policemen stand aside when Muslims set fire to a synagog.

If there is anything that history teaches us is that once violence spreads out, even when it starts as a focused blow to just one type of people, it quickly and rapidly takes over, and so, Europe, the old stomping ground of Fascist and Nazis is once again walking down that old path of religious hatred and bigotry, the only ones able to still save it come from the ranks of the nationalistic far right.

What this life might seem for those Arab Christians in Iraq these days must be a gloomy, realistic and desperate thought. While they know of their brothers and sisters in the West, of their military power and financial strength they do not feel even the slightest touch of aid to try and solve their desperate situation.

As ISIS rolls in, Christians are faced with a choice that they did not confront for about 1,400 years. Convert, pay or Die. The ISIS fighters are firm believers in the Islamic old ways, and they stay true to that, non Muslims are offered – just as they did hundreds of years ago, the option between paying the Jizya, converting to Islam or death by the sword.

In many terms these Christians would have been much better defended 800 years ago, when sympathy and help would arrive from Christian nations in Europe, but now their tears produce no more than 5 minute on French TV news.

The latest information is that France has offered some of the Christians refuge, maybe in hope to pathetically balance the figures of religious immigration to the country, however French Arabs – or simply Arabs in France, who are fanatics to human rights when it comes to anything that has to do with Israeli issues, do not take to the streets for their fellow Christian Arabs, or even for the Shiite community in Iraq which is fighting for its life. What a strange world this is, that an Atheist blog laments the end of Christian presence in Iraq you realize how hypocrisy and bigotry rule the Western Governments.

The last thing Gaza needs right now is for you to pray for it. It has way too much of that going on, including the person above, once again confusing Israeli population for simple Jews, for a moment of neglect Imams can drop the facade of a focused “humane” attack on Israel (for no reason at all) and actually say what is on their minds – this whole thing is about Muslims killing Jews.

Of course when one says “pray for” this or that they do not always mean religious prayer, so let us suggest a few real things that we can wish for, starting from the simple ones to the more politically saturated –

Wish for Hamas to fight like an army and not like cowards, not use civilians and children as shields, not force families to stay in areas from which they wage missiles attacks on Israel.

Wish for Hamas to fight like an army against an army and not focus most of its resources to try and kill non-combatants in Israeli populated cities.

Wish for Qatar to focus on building itself as a media mogul state and not sponsor Jihadi terror organizations.

Wish that the security of Palestinians in Gaza will be regard as chiefly the task of Hamas and not of Israel by the global media.

Wish that Hamas would use its 500,000 ton of concrete to build schools and hospitals and better living conditions for its people, rather than build underground cities to service its elite and suicide platoons.

Wish that there will be a 10% increase in the Atheist population of Gaza, leading them to ask that one simple question “why do we need to keep trying killing Jews instead of building a better life for us with those millions of dollars from Qatar and other Arab states”.

Wish that those Arab states who donate money to Gaza would not demand that its exclusively used to murder Jews.

Looks like we covered this one.

From Paris to London and far away as Calgary in Canada, people are showing their anger at Israel for responding to a 1,400 rocket attack on its civilian population, because it is simply unacceptable for a country to defend its citizens, especially if it hurts civilians on the other side – even if those are forcibly placed as human shields by the militants they themselves choose as government.

One thing stands out in all of this, the reports in local media call this “anti Israel demonstrations”, because, hey, we live in a democracy and its all right to criticize another country. This is, in turn, becomes what it really is – a sticky old fashion jew hatred demonstration under the guise of a “anti Israel” protest.

To some, it seems, there is nothing better than to take your old Palestinian/Algerian/Turkish flag, grab a knife or pipe and go out to a Parisian street in summer to chant “death to the Jews”, while some of the locals keep asking you (politely enough) to replace “Jews” with “Israel”, because just murdering jews for being born Jews is, well, racist.

And, oh, by the way, 200 bodies have been found in Syria yesterday, and about 300 Syrians are barricaded and starving in a village, Mosul is being ethnically cleansed. But that does not disturb those peace loving, knife yielding European Arabs – they just out for Jewish blood.
