News / Reportage                     Media Watchdog Condemns 'War Against Islam' Statement                     By US General.                                           United Kingdom - 2 November, 2001 (PRN) IslamicSpeakers.org, the                     international Muslim media watchdog run by Western citizens, condemned as                     fascist the statement by US General Wesley Clark, that the US war against                     terrorism "was a war over Islam" that would define Islam "as either a peaceful or                     militant" force in society. General Wesley K. Clark was previously NATO's                     Supreme Allied Commander Europe.                     David Pidcock, the body's spokesman condemned the statement as outright                     fascism. The statement was aired on BBC World's Hardtalk programme on                     29/10/2001.                     "This sort of supremacist statement would not be accepted in the West about                     Christianity or Judaism, in spite of the fact both these faiths have their own fair                     share of terrorist organizations, most of which have targeted western citizens,"                     noted Pidcock.                     "It is most disturbing to hear this public display of US extremism, that many now                     believe permeates the highest levels of US officialdom. Indeed, we see this                     statement as highly hypocritical coming from a man who directed most of the                     infamous U.S. military activities and interests in Latin America as well as                     commanding three companies in combat during Vietnam," added Pidcock.                     IslamicSpeakers.org is campaigning to enlighten fellow westerners on the                     historical roots of terrorism as a modern phenomenon. The body sees the roots                     of this modern scourge beginning in 19th Century Europe, with the spread of                     secular materialist philosophy. They point out that secular fanaticism has                     resulted in disaster for humanity with violent ideologies such as racism,                     fascism, colonialism, communism, zionism and many other cruel secular world                     views based on conflict drawing strength from Europe's materialist philosophy.                     Darwin proposed that the 'fight for survival' also applied between human races.                     According to that claim, 'favoured races' were victorious in the struggle. Favoured                     races, in Darwin's view, were white Europeans. African or Asian races had                     lagged behind in the struggle for survival. Darwin went further, and suggested                     that these races would soon lose the 'struggle for survival' entirely, and thus                     disappear: "At some future period, not very distant as measured by centuries, the                     "civilized" races of man will almost certainly exterminate, and replace the                     "savage" races throughout the world," states Darwin in his book subtitled "The                     Preservation of Favoured Races in the Struggle for Life".                     "The problem is that with the spread of Darwinism and the materialist                     philosophy it supports, the answer to the question 'What is a human being?' has                     changed. People who used to answer: 'Human beings were created by God and                     have to live according to the morality He teaches' have now begun to think that                     'Man came into being by chance, and is an animal who developed with the fight                     for survival," confirms Pidcock.                                           Source:  PRN

my personal comment: i think that the times when the kaffar attack Islam and admit to what this really is, they are saying what all of them really think. Muslim watchdogs are getting upset with the words they use, and try and get them to rephrase their statements. but what ever words they use, their actions and the thoughts these actions are based on remain the same. a example is when they use the word Islamic terrorism, to discribe Muslims as terrorist and to justify the extermination of Muslims. Often Muslims complain about them using the word Islamic terrorists to discribe Mujahideen saying that islam has no terrorism and telling the kaffar to just use the word terrorist to discribe mujahideen and justify killing them. what ever words they use the the actions remain the same. i prefer it whan the kaffar just say what they mean, that removes the hypocracy. i prefer it when they say we are killing you cause you are muslim, cause thats why they are doing it. its patranising when they say i love muslims but i want to kill all the terrorists, when he is using that word to mean muslim.
