Drifting towards Extremism?

They say Muslims must adopt democracy, one man, one vote, and yet, when Muslims vote and chose their leaders in a democratic way, the west says, no…no…no, we cannot accept that, because you did not elect our candidates but voted for someone we do not like! And what is that? Is the whole democracy talking just a mockery?

I read with great interest and yet disbelieve, an article by Joe Cochrane and Jonathan Kent (Newsweek ). Great interest because at least someone is “trying” to find answers to the growing affiliation of steadily growing moderate Moslem masses towards extremism, and disbelieve because these gentlemen, like most other western leaders, politicians, academics and reporters keep showing a despicable degree of double standard towards Islam and Moslems.

 

To illustrate, in simple terms, so even minors can understand the core of the problem which these gentlemen neglect and turn the blind eye to, let me list here few questions, young Muslims ask editors of reputed newspaper and, as usual, without getting neither a decent answer nor a comment of any kind, also a standard thing.

 

Quetions:

  1. A Jew can grow his beard in order to practice his faith, but when a Moslem does the same, he is termed an extremist and terrorist,Why?

 

  1. A nun can cover her body from head to toe in order to devote herself to god, but when a Muslim women does the same, she is branded as being “oppressed” why?

 

  1. When a western woman stays at home,, it is “to look after her house and kids”; and she is respected for making sacrifices for the family, and taking care of the household; but when Muslim woman does so by her own will, they say “ she needs to be liberated!” why?

 

  1. Any girl can go to university wearing what she wants, as it is part of her rights and freedom. But when a Muslim woman wears a Hijab, they prevent her from entering her university. Why?

 

  1. When a Christian or a Jew kills somebody, his religion is not an issue, but when a Muslim is charged wit a crime, it is Islam that goes to trial. Why?

 

 

 

 

 

 

  1. When someone sacrifices his or her life to keep others alive, he or she is seen as being noble, and all respect goes to him or her; but when a Muslim does that to save his son from being killed, his brothers arm being broken, his mother or sister from being raped, his home being destroyed and his Mosque from being violated, he is given the title of “terrorist”. Why?

 

  1. When there is trouble, we look around for a solution, if the solution lies in Islam we look the other way. Why?

 

  1. When someone drives a perfect car in a bad way, no one blames the car. But when a Muslim makes a mistake or treats people in a bad manner, you say “Islam is the problem2. Why?

 

 

 

 

 

 

The problem is very simple to understand for anyone wanting to understand a thing, what is driving the moderate Muslim masses to the extreme and at times respond violently is, the perverted western double standard towards Muslims.

 

They say Muslims must adopt democracy, one man, one vote, and yet, when Muslims vote and chose their leaders in a democratic way, the west says, no…no…no, we cannot accept that, because you did not elect our candidates but voted for someone we do not like! And what is that? Is the whole democracy talking just a mockery?

 

I run for election to the Parliament and local government as a prime candidate of a political party in my own country, Denmark, in 2004 and 2005 respectively, I was denied to participate in any of the political debates in TV, Radio and newspapers! NO ONE SINGLE time have I been allowed to take part in the party leader TV/Radio debates!. Do not take my word for granted but try to roll back the reels of those elections and see for Your selves. In no where will You find Dr. Dualeh, the main candidate of the “MINORITY PARTY”, not only that, my website, the only media through which I could communicate with the outside world has been closed down by the police by orders of the Ministry of Foreign affairs!, and why? That is because, I write about the perpetuated injustices and discrimination against Danish minorities, and refugees in general, and Muslims in particular.

 

The above is just a few of what we Muslims experience, especially in our respective home countries in the western “Democracies”.
