Islamoawareness

BigPeace: 'My Journey Toward Islamoawareness'

I use the term “Islamoawareness” because people who are critical of Islamic doctrine are often smeared as “Islamophobes”. I reject this label because a “phobia” is an irrational fear of something, but to fear something that is, indeed, out to kill you is the height of rationality.

I started this journey after 9/11, but not immediately after. As shocked as I was that nearly 3,000 lives were brutally snuffed out by Islamic terrorists, I bought the line that George Bush and Tony Blair parroted; namely, that Islam is a “religion of peace” that had been “hijacked” by extremists. So, I dismissed Osama bin Laden as nothing more than a homicidal extremist, and I really didn’t examine it any deeper.

But then I happened to see a billboard on Sunset Blvd. around May 2005. The billboard had some words on it I had never seen before, including “dhimmitude”, “Eurabia” and “Bat Y’eor”, and the address of a website, jihadwatch.org.

Read the rest.

Reading Infidel by Ayaan Hirsi Ali, followed by America Alone by Mark Steyn, then Londonistan by Melanie Phillips opened my eyes to the "Religion of Peace." You can't argue with first hand experiences, frightening statistics and the words themselves of those who want to kill us.
