In his 1899 book, The River War, the young Winston Churchill, expanding upon his adventures in Egypt and the Sudan, had this to say about Islam: “How dreadful is the curse that Mohammedanism lays on its votaries! Besides the fanatical frenzy, which is as dangerous in a man as hydrophobia in a dog, there is this fearful fatalistic apathy…Individual Muslims may show splendid qualities, but the influence of the religion paralyses the social development of those who follow it…No stronger retrograde force exists in the world.

Intifada is an Arabic word for a political or religious uprising. It first came into popular use with the Palestinian uprisings beginning in 1987 but has since become a more general term for Muslim uprisings, not only in the Middle East but also in Europe. In late October of 2005, news audiences around the world were introduced to the French Intifada. Following the accidental electrocution death of two Muslim youths evading French police, rioting Muslim youth gangs in a suburb north of Paris began setting fire to automobiles and other vehicles.

The European Union (EU), in collaboration with the Arab League, has made enormous, generously funded, and well organized efforts to convince the European public that Islam is a “religion of peace and tolerance” and that massive Arab-Muslim immigration into their countries is an economic and cultural blessing.

In nations governed by Islamic Law (Sharia), non-Muslims have the status of dhimmis (protected people). They are protected from slaughter or expulsion so long as they remain subservient and pay a poll tax, called the Jizya, to their Muslim masters. Under the rules of dhimmitude the “protected people” must show deference at all times to Muslims and wear special clothing to distinguish themselves from Muslims. They are allowed only limited religious freedoms and have no political or civil rights outside the Sharia, which regulates their mandated status of degradation and humiliation.
