The Prophet's guidance was always, Before you attack someone, warn them very clearly and offer them a chance to convert to Islam.

We are doomed to destruction unless we start treating Islam the way we did Nazism. I am not calling for an anti-Muslim genocide: our decisive victory in WWII was achieved without exterminating the Germans. Instead, we exterminated Nazism. Today, we have no choice but to exterminate the most murderous ideology that has ever existed — Islam.

Subject: PEACEMONGERS AND JIHADEERS

In the name of Allah Most Beneficent Most Merciful
 

Dear Yashiko Sagamori,

Read your article “PEACEMONGERS AND JIHADEERS” and found it to be distorted, fuzzy, full of hate and totally inaccurate. Your article is completely biased, thoroughly un-objective and completely rubbish.

Tell me what pleasure do you get in wanting to have all of us nuked? It seems to me that you have done very little research on Islam and yet portray yourself as some form of world authority.

Your name tells me that you are of Japanese origin. If that is the case, then you should do some research on the brutal behavior of your ancestors toward the Chinese women in WW2 and you will find these acts don't compare with anything done in the name of Islam.

I have been convinced of your naivety on this subject matter and I am willing to engage with you to help change your erroneous views. If you do some proper research on Allah then I'm sure you will find with him rewards which money cannot buy.

I ask you to remove your articles from the Internet and post an immediate apology.

Be true to yourself.

Regards

Syed Hussain (Muslim)
 
 

Dear Syed Hussain (Muslim):

You are not the first observant Muslim commenting on my essays. Like every single one before you, you freely express your displeasure but fail to provide even a single example of distortions and inaccuracies I, according to you, am guilty of. “Fuzzy”? Without an example, it's hard for me to say whether it's my fuzziness or your inability to connect commonly known facts and follow simple logic. “Un-objective”? Being neither a judge nor a reporter, I do not need to be objective. I only have to be truthful.

Are you being truthful? Exactly to the extent expected from a jihadeer. In the article that caused your outrage, I describe not the pleasure, but the horror of my co-worker at the prospect of nuclear response to your September 11, 2001, attack on the United States. I wrote that all non-Muslims would share both the understanding of the necessity of such a terrible response and the horror at the death of hundreds of thousands human beings that it would inevitably bring. I specifically wrote the following:

That pretty much defines the basic difference between Muslims and the rest of us. Nobody can push us to the point where we would celebrate death, because no such point exists.
 

What words exactly did you mistake for an expression of pleasure? Please look at this photograph of a happy young Muslim with bloody hands. He is happy because he and his equally Muslim buddies have just torn apart two Jews. Look at it carefully: this is your happy face, not mine. This is my blood on your hands.

You are saying I am not an expert on Islam. How can you tell? What is your own area of expertise? Certainly not the history of World War II. The inhumane treatment of prisoners of war and civilian population by the Japanese military is well documented. For what reason only the suffering of Chinese women succeeded in attracting your attention? This little omission tells me volumes about you. I suspect brothels staffed with captured (mostly, Korean) women, like those the Japanese army set up for its soldiers, present a special interest for you because they are the closest thing on earth to your idea of heaven. (You are in for a great disappointment.) As to their cruelty towards prisoners of war and civilians, both male and female, there can be only one reason why you consider it not worth mentioning: given an opportunity, Muslims do much worse things to those who find themselves at their mercy. Therefore, if you think that Japanese atrocities do not compare with anything done in the name of Islam, then you are certainly not an expert on Islam either.

Today, despite the deep cultural gap between East and West, Japan is an integral, prosperous, democratic part of our civilization. The atomic bombs dropped on Hiroshima and Nagasaki in August 1945 have been a major factor in changing the Japanese attitudes from militarism and domination in favor of joining the progress of humanity. It was bitter medicine, but, as you can see, it worked wonderfully well. Is there a reason to think the mujaheddin are more resistant to it than the samurai?

I appreciate your generous offer to “engage” me. Unfortunately, you haven't noticed that you and I have been engaged for a long time. I am not a history student, but if I am not mistaken, our first engagement took form of genocide committed by you against the Jews of Medina. More recently, you and I have been engaged daily through almost six decades of your genocidal war against Israel. You engaged me in 1993 when you tried to blow up the World Trade Center, but only succeeded in killing six people, which, of course, could not satisfy your thirst for blood. On October 12, 2000, you engaged me twice: first, you killed 17 American sailors by blowing up the USS Cole; then you happily lynched two Israeli reservists in Ramallah, Israel, where the picture above was taken. You engaged me on September 11, 2001, when you succeeded in murdering 3 thousand of my countrymen. In October 2002, you engaged me in Moscow where my close friend and his daughter were among the 130 innocent people killed by you and your suicidal helpers. On March 11 last year, you engaged me in Madrid, where you killed 200 perfectly innocent commuters. In September 2004, you engaged me in Beslan where you left behind 344 dead civilians, at least half of them children, both Christian and Muslim. You engage me every time you put on a bomb belt and board a bus or enter a restaurant in Israel.

I cannot provide the complete list of our engagements, because, once compiled, it will be more voluminous than all the documents the prosecution brought to the Nuremberg trials.

There was a Coptic family in New Jersey, a man, his wife and their two daughters, 15 and 8 years old. They were even more na?ve than I am. They thought they could restore a good Muslim to humanity by convincing him to abandon his cult. You proved them wrong by killing all four of them. You slit their throats and watched them slowly, painfully bleed to death. Tell me what pleasure do you find in death and suffering of innocent human beings?

Does it matter to you that among all the religions that exist today on our planet, yours is the only one that practices ritual murder?

But let us suppose that I decide to accept your invitation and let you fill the gaping holes in my Islamic education. What can I hope to learn from you about Islam that's so vitally important to me to know? It seems to me that between the two of us, we know everything there is to know about Islam. I know what Islam does; you know how its demagogues justify its crimes. My knowledge can be expressed in two simple sentences:

If you oppose jihad, you are not a Muslim.
If you support jihad, you are my enemy.

Can you argue with that?

Whatever you may possibly add to this is nothing but enemy propaganda. Make no mistake, however: this propaganda was devised not for the “infidels” like myself, but mostly for internal consumption by the ”faithful” like you. You see, Muslims are human too. In their heart of hearts, they know that what they do is terribly wrong. Without the brainwashing, you might even feel guilty. You might even refuse to participate.

But look at it from my side if you can: when you blow up the bus I am riding, does it really make a difference to me whether you scream “Allahu akbar!” or “Heil Hitler!”? It doesn't matter to me whether your propaganda is being fed to you in the form of religion or in any other form. How many times a day you get on your hands and knees, where do you aim your butt when you do it, what centuries-old mental tricks your mullahs use against you to guarantee that you forever remain an obedient sheep in their herd — all this matters absolutely nothing to me. What does matter is the choice you are offering to me: the choice between becoming a slave master and a slave if I am lucky, and between becoming a murder victim and a murderer if I am not. If I am “true“ to myself, I will be allowed to join you in the murder of infidels and oppression of dhimmis; if not, I am destined to become a dhimmi, probably, a dead one, myself.

And what exactly do I gain if I decide to switch sides in your war against me? What are the gifts of Allah that no money can buy? What can I find in Dar el Islam that I so sorely miss in Dar el Harb?

If I am a woman, you offer me an opportunity to live my life without a face. At a very young age, you will subject me to a painful, barbaric operation that in a male would be tantamount to castration. I will not be allowed to work. I will not be allowed to drive a car either, but that's not important, since I will not be able to afford one. If you are consistent in your demands of Islamic “purity”, I will be deprived of even the most basic medical care. If there is a rumor of a sexual indiscretion on my part or if I am raped, I will be either murdered by my own relatives or stoned to death.

If I am a man, I will have an opportunity to uphold the honor of my family by killing my daughter or sister, better, both. Occasionally, I will take part in the stoning of a person condemned for something that civilized people do not even consider a crime. If I am really, really lucky, I may get a chance to tear apart a piece of burned human flesh, like so many of you happily did in Fallujah. Between murders, I will entertain myself watching beheadings on Al-Jazeera. And if all that is not enough to keep me happy, I will always have an option to strap on an explosive belt and sneak into Israel.

Yes, I know that life isn't exactly like that in every Muslim country. Not everywhere Islamic laws and traditions are followed to the letter. But this is only due to the corrupting influence of the West. When you finally free yourself from that humiliating influence, those who survive will remember the Taliban as a paragon of liberalism.

Have you noticed that even while the United States occupies Iraq and Afghanistan, most Muslims around the world who die a violent death are killed not by us, infidels, but by other Muslims? Have you noticed that while most of the recent tsunami victims were Muslims, help came to them from Dar el Harb, while Dar el Islam was striving to explain how evil Jews and Americans caused the earthquake that caused the tsunami? Take a look at Iraq where Sunnis, on occasion of a Shiite holiday, killed a few dozens Shiites. That's okay; one day Sunnis will be celebrating, and Shiites will pay them back. Peace and love, indeed.

I will be perfectly honest with you: I have no intention of moving in with you. I never wanted to live in a cave. I never wanted to find myself on either side of slavery or murder. The choice you are trying to force on me looks awfully unattractive to me. So unattractive in fact that nuking Islam out of existence suddenly doesn't seem such a terrible idea. Make no mistake: the only reason it hasn't happened yet is because our leaders still believe they have less radical means to stop you from destroying our civilization. But since you keep doing everything in your power to prove them wrong, one day they will have to change their mind.

Think about that day.

I've been complaining that the United States did not rise in anger in response to 9/11. To my dismay, it didn't. But look how easily we, even without getting angry, removed two of your worst regimes. Arabs are well known cowards, while Afghans are famous for their courage in battle, but did it make even a slightest difference? Don't kid yourself: nuclear arms in your hands may greatly increase the number of casualties, but they will not buy you victory. Even armed with the most terrible weapons, you are still a bunch of savages, impotent against a civilized army. Were it not so, would Israel still exist today? Think about the day when we finally become angry. Where will you run when it happens? What will the stone cry when you try to hide behind it?

I maybe very na?ve, but I am not na?ve enough to overlook the ominous warning in your letter. You are telling me that if I refuse to be engaged with you on your terms, you will engage me the same way and for the same reason you engaged Theo van Gogh. Why is it that the only way for Islam to prove that it is a “religion of peace and love” is to kill everybody who knows otherwise and is not afraid to say so? Why is the only way for a Muslim to be true to himself is to kill? Are you going to slit my throat to prove the eternal kindness of your god and the wisdom of his prophet? That would certainly make me — and millions of others — see the light.

What exactly do you expect me to apologize for?

Sincerely disgusted,

Yashiko Sagamori
