I honestly never imagined I would witness the insane levels of anti-semitism that we are seeing right now raising its ugly head in 2023-2025. I was aware of an undercurrent, most especially visible with the whack conspiricy theory set, including the so called, ‘alien lizard creatures are run tings’ imbeciles but to see it go mainstream, that is a shocker.
In railing against it online i often get falsely accused of being ‘islamaphobic’ or ‘racist’ or ‘condoning genocide’, usually something along those lines. However, a ‘phobia’ is an IRRATIONAL FEAR. Our concerns re the pervasive and insidious nature of Islamism world wide are RATIONAL, well justified given the FACTS, and absolutely MUST be voiced. FYI the term ‘racist’ does not even apply as Islam is not a race, it is a religion, a world view and and Islamism is an ideology. Ad hominem attacks aside and justifiably disregarded as the logical fallacies and smoke screens that they are, I feel a moral obligation to voice my concerns so and i don’t care what names i get called for doing so. There are valid concerns backed up by historical and factual evidence. Many people are dying due to Islam’s built in hatred of and prejudice against Jews, Christians, Hindus, Buddhists, Women and sexual minorities, ‘infidels’ or Kafir as Muslims say, those who do not believe as they do in a fictitious character they refer to as Allah. Not to mention the many sectarian conflicts between Sunni and Shia, Alawites, Kurdish Yazidi, Druze, etc etc. Many of those dying are Muslims, as ‘martyrs’ being brainwashed/indoctrinated, USED by Islamists for their sick and twisted and hate filled PR campaigns. THAT is truly what is happening in Israel/Palestine/Gaza right now. The children of gaza and surrounding Arab territories have literally been raised to hate and want to kill Jews. It is as simple and as ghastly as that and i have abundant evidence that that is the case. It’s freely available for anyone to see that pays attention and studies the issue closely.
Concerns about the term “Islamophobia”
1. Vagueness: The term “Islamophobia” is often vaguely defined, making it difficult to distinguish between legitimate criticism of Islam and actual phobic behavior.
2. Chilling effect: The label “Islamophobia” can have a chilling effect on free speech, as people may avoid criticizing Islam or discussing sensitive topics related to Islam for fear of being labeled “Islamophobic.”
3. Stifling debate: The term “Islamophobia” can be used to shut down debate and discussion about Islam, rather than engaging with critics and addressing their concerns.
Importance of legitimate criticism
1. Free speech: Legitimate criticism of Islam, like any other religion or ideology, is essential to maintaining free speech and open discussion.
2. Reform and progress: Criticism of Islam can contribute to reform and progress within Muslim communities, helping to address issues like extremism, human rights abuses, and inequality.
3. Understanding and education: Open discussion and criticism of Islam can promote greater understanding and education about the religion, its history, and its practices.
Every death in Gaza is the responsibility of Hamas and is part of their planned and vile PR strategy aimed at the under-educated and naive in the west. Calling someone “islamophobic” really is aimed at chilling free speech and especially chilling one’s right to critique Islam, though the critique may be well justified and factually correct. I will point out that you can call me what you like but I do not oppress women, instead i respect, honour and celebrate them. I do not brutalize, torture and murder homosexuals, Islamic regimes do that, I do not put suicide bomber vests on women and children, Islam does that, the suicide bomber community is exclusively Muslim, in fact. I do not murder journalists and cartoonists and other critics for critisizing my religion (i don’t adhere to any), Islam does do that. I do not kidnap and brutalize, rape and enslave women and children, Islamists do that (ISIS, Boko Haram, et al).
FYI Islam is a religion, not a race, though it originated in Arabia and so is of Arabian origins. At this point it has spread like an insidious cancer all over the world, just as Christianity has. These religions are mind viruses and do a lot of damage, have done a lot of damage over the centuries.
In my various rational critiques of Islam and of Islamism i ALWAYS mention that Muslims themselves, especially muslim women are the main victims of Islam, of Authoritarian Islamic regimes. For prime examples have a look at the Taliban in Afghanastan and the Morality police in Iran. In Iran, the morality police are commonly known as the “Gasht-e Ershad” (گشت ارشاد). The term “Gasht-e Ershad” can be translated to “Guidance Patrol” or “Virtue Police.”
The Gasht-e Ershad is a special unit of Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) that is responsible for enforcing Iran’s strict moral codes and dress codes, particularly for women. They patrol public areas, monitoring people’s behavior and attire, and issuing warnings, fines, or even arrests to those who are deemed to be violating these codes.
It’s worth noting that the Gasht-e Ershad has been criticized for its heavy-handed tactics and human rights abuses, particularly against women and minority groups.
The Taliban has controlled Afghanistan since 2021. Girls are now banned from attending school past sixth grade. Independent media, including newspapers and radio stations, have been shut down. Protestors, journalists, and activists are being arrested.
Islam itself IS a form of authoritarianism, it is founded on violence and authoritarian principals and espouses and enforces those principals through incoctrination, coersion and violence. It was always done that, history tells the story of it clearly, irrefutably. I always mention that Chritianity was just as bad not so long ago and that there are still ‘Christians’ burning ‘witches’ and ‘heretics’ even in the 21st century. Witch persecution and trials are ongoing incidents in Africa, with thousands of people, mainly women and the elderly, being accused, attacked, killed, imprisoned, or banished every year. And the Jews were just as bad 3200 years ago with their physical and cultural genocide of the Amalakites, as refferenced in the Hebrew bible.
At THIS TIME in history, however, Islam is BY FAR the most violent, oppresive, regressive and toxic for that religion takes. There is no religion that i am a fan of because i have a serious aversion to bullshit and all are predicated on demonstrably and evidently false precepts.
“All that is necessary for the triumph of evil is that good men do nothing.”
This quote emphasizes the importance of standing up against injustice, speaking out against wrongdoings, and taking action to prevent harm. It encourages individuals to be proactive in promoting good and combating evil, rather than remaining passive or silent.

Are you seriously going to attempt to blame Israel for all of that? If so you are in a state of abject and pathetic ignorance of history and the current state of geo-politics, cause and effect, and are very much on the wrong side of history and you are endorsing and enabling religious fanatic homicidal maniacs because that is exactly what they want you to do. Your anti-zionist anti-semitism is a part of their vile and abhorrent PR strategy of assymetrical warfare.
The term “useful idiot” is often misunderstood so let’s clarify its meaning.
The term “useful idiot” was originally coined by Vladimir Lenin to describe Western intellectuals and politicians who supported the Soviet Union’s ideology without fully understanding its implications. These individuals were seen as naive and unwittingly promoting the Soviet agenda.
The term doesn’t necessarily imply that someone is an idiot in the classical sense. Rather, it suggests that they are being manipulated or exploited by others, often due to their own biases, ignorance, or idealism.
Intelligent people can indeed be fooled or misled, especially when it comes to complex issues or ideologies. The term “useful idiot” is more about the role someone plays in promoting a particular agenda, rather than their intelligence or cognitive abilities.
Addtionally, part of intelligence/awareness is the ability to discern patterns and to make accurate predictions based upon those patterns.

The Mufti of Jerusalem during World War II was Haj Amin al-Husseini. He was a Palestinian Arab nationalist and Islamic leader who held the position of Grand Mufti of Jerusalem from 1921 to 1948.
Haj Amin al-Husseini was a strong opponent of Jewish immigration to Palestine, which was then under British rule. He saw the Jewish presence in Palestine as a threat to Arab and Muslim interests.
During World War II, al-Husseini sought to align himself and the Palestinian Arab nationalist movement with the Axis powers, particularly Nazi Germany. He believed that an alliance with the Nazis would help him achieve his goals of preventing Jewish immigration to Palestine and establishing an independent Arab state.
In 1941, al-Husseini met with Adolf Hitler and other high-ranking Nazi officials in Berlin. During these meetings, he expressed his support for the Nazi war effort and his desire to collaborate with the Nazis in the Middle East.
Al-Husseini also helped to recruit Muslim soldiers for the German army and advocated for the extermination of Jews in the Middle East. He saw the Holocaust as an opportunity to eliminate the Jewish presence in Palestine and advance his own nationalist goals.
Al-Husseini’s collaboration with the Nazis was not representative of the views of all Palestinians or Arabs at the time. Many Arabs and Palestinians opposed Nazi ideology and collaborated with the Allies during World War II.
After the war, al-Husseini fled to Egypt, where he continued to play a role in Palestinian politics until his death in 1974.

Hamas et al >>> “Kill Jews!!! Kill Kill Kill!!! Rape them!!! Allahu Akbar!!! Run Away!!!! Ceases Fire!!!!”
The FACT is that Jerusalem is JEWISH, Judea is JEWISH land invaded and colonized first by the romans and then later by Islamic forces. This is historical fact. It was the Greeks and then the Romans who first used the term Palestine to define that land. They did they to punish the Jews for revolt and also killed a lot of Jews and expelled the rest from the land. That was the located of Soloman’s Temple and the 2nd temple, on the Temple Mount. Now it is the location of the Al-Aqsa Mosque.
Solomon’s Temple, also known as the First Temple, was a sacred temple in Jerusalem, Israel, built during the reign of King Solomon (970-930 BCE). Here’s a brief history:
Construction and Dedication (970-930 BCE)
1. King Solomon, the third king of Israel, decided to build a temple to house the Ark of the Covenant, which contained the Ten Commandments.
2. The construction of the temple took seven years to complete (1 Kings 7:1).
3. The temple was built using cedar wood, gold, and precious stones.
4. The temple was dedicated to God, and the Ark of the Covenant was placed inside the Holy of Holies.
History and Significance (930-586 BCE)
1. Solomon’s Temple served as the central place of worship for the Israelites.
2. The temple was a symbol of God’s presence among the Israelites.
3. The temple was also a center of learning, where priests and scribes studied and taught the Torah.

2. The Babylonians looted the temple, taking many of its treasures and artifacts.
3. The destruction of the temple marked the beginning of the Babylonian exile, during which many Israelites were forced to leave Jerusalem and live in Babylon.
Archaeological Evidence
1. While the temple itself has not been found, archaeological excavations have uncovered remnants of the temple’s foundation and walls.
2. The Temple Mount, where the temple once stood, is now home to the Dome of the Rock, a Muslim shrine built in the 7th century CE.

2. The temple’s design and architecture have influenced the construction of synagogues and other Jewish buildings throughout history.
3. The legacy of Solomon’s Temple continues to be felt in Jewish worship and tradition, with many prayers and rituals referencing the temple and its significance.
in Jerusalem was a sacred Jewish temple built during the Persian period, after the Babylonian exile. Here’s a brief history:
Construction and Dedication (516 BCE)
1. Cyrus the Great’s decree: In 538 BCE, the Persian king Cyrus the Great issued a decree allowing the Jews to return to Jerusalem and rebuild the temple.
2. Construction begins: The construction of the Second Temple began in 536 BCE, led by Zerubbabel, a Jewish leader, and Joshua, the high priest.
3. Dedication: The temple was completed in 516 BCE, during the reign of the Persian king Darius I, and was dedicated to God.
Hellenistic and Hasmonean Periods (332-37 BCE)
1. Alexander’s conquest: In 332 BCE, Alexander the Great conquered the Persian Empire, including Judea.
2. Hellenistic influence: After Alexander’s death, his successors introduced Greek culture and practices, which influenced Jewish life and the temple.
3. Maccabean Revolt: In 167 BCE, the Maccabees, a Jewish family, led a successful revolt against the Seleucid Empire, which had desecrated the temple.
4. Rededication: In 164 BCE, the Maccabees rededicated the temple, an event commemorated during the Jewish festival of Hanukkah.
Roman Period (37 BCE-70 CE)
1. Herod’s renovation: In 19 BCE, King Herod, a Roman-appointed Jewish king, renovated and expanded the Second Temple, making it a grand and impressive structure.
2. Jesus’ teachings: During the 1st century CE, Jesus of Nazareth taught in the temple courts, criticizing the corruption and commercialization of the temple.
3. Roman destruction: In 70 CE, the Roman legions, led by Titus, besieged and destroyed Jerusalem, including the Second Temple.
Aftermath and Legacy
1. Diaspora: The destruction of the Second Temple led to the Jewish diaspora, with many Jews dispersed throughout the Roman Empire.
2. Rabbinic Judaism: The loss of the temple led to the development of Rabbinic Judaism, which emphasized the study of Torah and the importance of synagogues.
3. Western Wall: The Western Wall, a remnant of the temple’s retaining wall, became a sacred site for Jewish prayer and pilgrimage.
The Second Temple played a central role in Jewish life and worship for nearly 600 years, and its legacy continues to shape Jewish tradition and identity.
A question that gets to the heart of a longstanding debate!
Mosque located on the Temple Mount in Jerusalem, which is also the site where Solomon’s Temple once stood.
Historical Background
1. After the destruction of Solomon’s Temple by the Babylonians in 586 BCE, the site remained largely abandoned for several centuries.
2. In 515 BCE, the Second Temple was built on the same site during the Persian period.
3. The Second Temple was later renovated and expanded by King Herod in the 1st century BCE.
4. In 70 CE, the Second Temple was destroyed by the Romans.
Islamic Period
1. In the 7th century CE, during the Islamic conquest of Jerusalem, the Temple Mount was converted into a Muslim prayer area.
2. In 692 CE, the Dome of the Rock was built on the site, followed by the construction of the Al-Aqsa Mosque in the 8th century CE.
Archaeological Evidence
1. Excavations have revealed remnants of the Second Temple, including its foundation and walls, beneath the Al-Aqsa Mosque.
2. Some researchers believe that the Al-Aqsa Mosque was built on top of the ruins of the Second Temple, while others argue that it was constructed on an adjacent site.
Conclusion
While the Al-Aqsa Mosque is located on the Temple Mount, which was the site of Solomon’s Temple, it is not directly built on top of the ancient temple. Instead, it was constructed on the site of the Second Temple, which was built centuries after Solomon’s Temple was destroyed.
