Initially published on 19 October 2006 in Buzzle Excerpt: The Muslim countries' upper middle-classes are the venomous enemy of the West. The worst failure of America is not Afghanistan, Iraq, Somalia and/or the perpetuation of the Palestinian problem. The worst failure is America's inability to accurately and timely identify the enemy. The secret enemies of the Americans are their interlocutors. 1. The terrorists are just hands that commit criminal acts. 2. The extremist sheikhs are the owners of the factories that produce terrorists. 3. The bogus-universities that prepare the extremist sheikhs belong to the states, the supposedly US-friendly administrations that strive to help solve all problems with Israel (what a laugh!), while controlling the anti-Zionist local populations! 4. These states belong to the upper middle classes of the Muslim countries; the said social classes represent only a small portion of the society, i.e. the businesspeople, the managers and the directors, the professors and the army generals. As social class, they do not represent more than 2 to 3% of the entire population of each country-factory of Islamic Terrorism. These people are the Muslim businesspeople, who routinely meet the experts of Microsoft and Intel, Vodafone and France Telecom; these are the traders who contact Toyota and Ford, the professors who hypocritically denounce Ossama Bin Laden, the generals who want to buy military aircraft spare parts, the actors and the singers who are dressed like average people in the streets of San Francisco, Napoli, Sydney and Amsterdam.

1. Plead for a Debate within Islam
If a real, free, and honest debate does not take place within Islam, there are
very few chances for the world to avoid a major and fatal confrontation. By
'Islam', I don't mean only the existing Muslim states, but all the Muslims
across the entire world; so this involves Russia, China, India, Europe, Canada,
the US, Australia, and almost the entire world.
Europeanappeasementfunctionsagainstthe US
The European tactics of appeasement (and debate prevention) is not ensuing
from fear; it is rather the traditional colonial policy of keeping people ignorant
and undeveloped instead of seeing them emancipated and educated.
In this regard, Europe is at this moment the major obstacle for the US, if we
assume that there are forces in Washington that would truly push towards the
beginning of the debate.
Of course, the local, bogus-royal, theocratic or presidential dictators across
today's Muslim world will try to avoid this debate; this is the reason they
rather side with Europe and try to gain time, in order to avert the issue. This
is so, because they are fully committed to, and totally depend on, the terrorist
sheikhs who are hidden behind them.
Hanbali-zation,Taimiya-zation,Wahhabi-zation oftoday’s
Islam
It is an illusion to think that uneducated, ignorant and evil people like the late
Shaarawi (minister of Sadat), Qaradawi, Fethullah Gulen, Amr Khaled, and
Tareq Ramadan are not close to the terrorist front.
Despite theoretical variations (that only help them play the politics of their
choice), they all emanate from a heretic, anti-Islamic theological line that
ultimately originates from Ibn Hanbal, Ibn Taimiya and Ibn Abdel Wahhab:
the nomadic, anti-Aramaean, anti-Persian, anti-Coptic and anti-Berber
interpretation of a fictional Islam of early 7th c. CE Hedjaz. This is a pseudo-
historical and anti-Islamic fallacy of a nomadic Islam necessary only for
people of low behavioral system, i.e. for heinous and tenebrous pseudo-
Muslims who are indifferent for Spirituality, Arts, Letters, Sciences,
Architecture and Philosophy.
It is wrong to ask today whether a Muslim sheikh, academic and intellectual
(who can be truly called like that?) originates from this or that country, and
then try to check whether the local Muslim jurisprudential tradition is Maliki,
Shafei or Hanafi. After Ibn Taimiya (non-instantly (of course) and long before
Ibn Abdel Wahhab, the three surviving schools of Islamic Jurisprudence were
progressively Hanbal-ized in their distortion of the original spirit of Islam.

2. Limits to surpass
Of course, debates took place within Islam in the past; I mean strong
philosophical debates like the famous polarization around Ibn Rushd and Al
Ghazali. But this happened before 700, 800, 900, 1000 years. Consider what
polarization could then possibly take place within Christianity: a very limited
one!
I say this, because in the past -before a dry period of darkness covered
everything within Islam after approximately the year 1600- the Islamic
debates were carried out within some limits; questions could not rise about
the authenticity of the Coran, the accepted as Hadith Qudsi, the first Four
Caliphs of Madina, etc. The fratricidal wars that had shaken the aurora of
Islam had left bad impressions and fear of discord.
There was an extra reason for this attitude of not surpassing limits; when you
are at the peak of Baghdad's and Andalusia's opulence, art, wisdom and
science, you think that you already vanquished evil and eliminated
negativity, and consequently, you do not need to scratch old wounds;
however, acting so, you leave indeed some part of the evil hibernating.
On a different note, when you face foreign threats and attacks (like the
Crusades and the Mongols – destruction of Baghdad at 1258), you think wise
to forget – again – the old divisions and the points of further inner strife.
There were however several moments during the Islamic History when
people reached within minimal distance from starting a debate like that:
- How can we accept a Hadith that contradicts the real essence of the
teachings of Islam?
- How can we discuss the traditions as per which Prophet Muhammad did
what we must never do (indulging himself in pedophilia) and what other
prophets never permitted themselves to do?
One understands -of course- that what stood behind the Aisha story was
incommensurably more important than mere pedophilia to the then rulers: it
was all about the legitimacy of Abu Bakr, and of the Sunni political concept of
Caesaropapism.
However, the aforementioned attitude among Muslims is by now part of the
past! Now, we must talk free and about all.
All specialists are welcome!
This debate must be undertaken by Muslims and Christians, Jewish and
atheists; anyone who has a specialized background in the History of the
Islamic World and in the History of the Islamic Civilization must participate.

3. Muslims can certainly side with Truth seekers of any religious faith against
the Muslims, who try to diffuse lies, cover issues, and propagate their system
of ignorance, which drives masses of Muslim populations to terrorism. And
they will.
It will be essential to challenge the poor intellectual resources and the limited
knowledge of the outright majority of the existing sheikhs worldwide. If this
is not successfully done, the criminal bogus-Islamic sheikhs of Satan will not
be duly and effectively discredited enough among Muslims. And yet this will
be the only real victory for the Civilized World, the West, the East, the North
and the South.
Location of the debate
The debate must be generated/sponsored/promoted by an international
body, UNESCO or anything as new branch of the UN.
One cannot work with the extremist Secretary General of the Islamic
Conference Organization, Ekmeleddin Ihsanoglu, the personal friend of the
disreputable and undemocratic Tayip Erdogan, the current Turkish premier.
And one does not need this sort of people; one needs precisely the opposite.
A grassroots' organization should first be established with main target to set
up a comprehensive network of 500 reformist Muslim intellectuals from all
the Muslim countries and communities across the world. Oppressed Muslims
– victims of Pan-Arabism must be promoted high within this organization.
The members should be financed to write, publish, diffuse and debate; one of
their tasks will be to gather more and more members ready to contribute.
Examplesofaction
To offer an example:
1. Associates / assistants of the members should collect (tape recording)
Khutba speeches (religious sermons) given every Friday by notorious
extremist and ignorant sheikhs throughout the world
2. The khutbas must be translated (to at least 5 – 7 major languages)
3. The khutbas must become a matter of theoretical rejection and public
outcry by the members of the organization (by means of articles, essays, and
analyses that will be diffused worldwide)
4. The practice must be important in numbers (every week at least 200 texts of
khutbas collected, translated, and multi-refuted)
5. The Board of Directors must instantaneously (and repeatedly every week)
issue a formal condemnation demanding the indigenous kings, presidents

4. and prime ministers across the Muslim World to immediately arrest these
sheikhs as criminals against the Mankind, because of spreading bogus-Islamic
Extremism and anti-Christian, anti-Western (etc., etc., etc.) Hatred
6. The Director General – in case the indigenous kings, presidents and prime
ministers across the Muslim World do not bother taking any action – should
accuse them solemnly as acting leaders of terrorists and demand the UN, the
US, and others to intervene and chastise the local terrorist power
7. An alliance of states must demand from all the countries concerned (those
standing accused of terrorism because of the registered, translated and
refuted khutbas that will be tolerated by the evil and lawless, local
authorities) to offer wide space and full media coverage at the local level to
the members, the Board of Directors and the Director General of the
Organization.
8. If the countries that stand accused of terrorism fail to do so, immediate
action must be taken, involving termination of any technology transfer,
blockades, total cancellation of tourist packages, and eventual occupation of
strategic areas. Preemptive strikes, if needed, should be reminiscent of the
Belgrade 1998 case. One has to anticipate that all over the world two or three
cases of strikes will happen, but this is nothing to be feared, because support
will come from elsewhere.
9. It will be essential to ensure full global media coverage to every single
person who will side with the reformers, to political parties that will be
formed to propagate the Islamic Reform ideas and concepts, and to the local
press outfits that will be launched.
10. The dynamism of the effort must be overwhelming and what comes next
will show where Western money must go.
The Muslim countries' uppermiddle-classesare the venomous
enemy ofthe West.
The worst failure of America is not Afghanistan, Iraq, Somalia and/or the
perpetuation of the Palestinian problem. The worst failure is America's
inability to accurately and timely identify the enemy.
The secret enemies of the Americans are their interlocutors.
1. The terrorists are just hands that commit criminal acts.
2. The extremist sheikhs are the owners of the factories that produce terrorists.
3. The bogus-universities that prepare the extremist sheikhs belong to the
states, the supposedly US-friendly administrations that strive to help solve all

5. problems with Israel (what a laugh!), while controlling the anti-Zionist local
populations!
4. These states belong to the upper middle classes of the Muslim countries; the
said social classes represent only a small portion of the society, i.e. the
businesspeople, the managers and the directors, the professors and the army
generals. As social class, they do not represent more than 2 to 3% of the entire
population of each country-factory of Islamic Terrorism.
These people are the Muslim businesspeople, who routinely meet the experts
of Microsoft and Intel, Vodafone and France Telecom; these are the traders
who contact Toyota and Ford, the professors who hypocritically denounce
Ossama Bin Laden, the generals who want to buy military aircraft spare parts,
the actors and the singers who are dressed like average people in the streets of
San Francisco, Napoli, Sydney and Amsterdam.
These guys are all saying lies to their American and European interlocutors;
they behave like Westerners when dealing with Westerners but when back at
home
- they express a total hatred against the West,
- they articulate the most extremist and terrorist proposals, and
- they behave in the mean, miserable and dejected way that is particular to
those unfortunate societies.
These guys, the purported friends and interlocutors of the West,
- want their women covered (with hedjab or even niqab),
- threaten or despise anyone who does not fast in Ramadan,
- curse openly anyone who enjoys drinking wine, while reminding today's
uneducated and ignorant Muslims that Abbasid Baghdad was well
familiarized with wine and dance,
- impose, due to totalitarian methodsm on their employees and subordinates a
terrorist interpretation of Islam, hatred against America, and rejection of any
element of Western culture,
- impose five prayers per day on all their colleagues or subordinates,
threatening them with deferment of professional promotion or even with
firing,
- go to apparently well-built mosques in their wealthy districts (parking their
Mercedes or BMWs outside the mosques) in order to passionately listen to the
most barbaric and extremist khutbas which are full of attacks against
America, Israel, and the West in its totality,
- find supreme joy in spending long hours in the mosque every Ramadan
night in order to practice a nowadays completely altered tradition (Tarawikh),
during which they curse America, Israel and the West, and they pray so that
their Satanic bogus-Allah permits them to invade the world and kill all those
who do not become Muslim,
- reject the perspective of a secular state and support policies of total

6. oppression of the Christian masses, believing that in this manner they ensure
an impossible situation, which will ultimately force all Christians to finally
convert to Islam (and so idiotic they are that they believe that this will be their
ticket to the Paradise!), and last but not least,
- identify Mustafa Kemal Ataturk as their worst enemy within the Muslim
World.
America and the West must understand that things are totally different
among the Muslim countries' lower classes. Those countries' lower social
layers have not accepted the aforementioned totalitarian practices and
misinterpretations. Among them, the behavioral system changes totally, being
far more tolerant and open to Western social practices.
Among the Muslim countries' lower and simple people, one finds easily guys
who prefer to flirt with girls, visit secret houses of prostitution, enjoy alcohol,
appreciate homosexual intercourse, and tolerate anything would turn a
fanatic sheikh angry and mad.
The Western world must establish direct channels of communication and
contact with these masses and support them to final emancipation and
sociopolitical imposition over the hypocritical upper middle classes. Such is
the unprecedented level of Muslim upper middle class hypocrisy that one can
encounter ladies, who although uncovered (to imitate Western practices)
'admit' that the correct in Islam is for a woman to be covered!
Of course, it is interesting to add that these ladies do not dare enter, let alone
cross, average residential districts inhabited by besotted and fanaticized
masses, because dressed in a Western manner, they would be exposed to
innumerable vulgar comments and ceaseless insults screamed by filthy
youngsters, who are encouraged by their illiterate and silly mothers, and by
their districts' Satanic sheikhs, to express themselves in terms of barbaric and
hideous behavioral system.
This is so because these pathetic pseudo-religiousleaders imagine that such a
behavior helps perpetuate the intolerant present situation that prevails across
the Muslim societies and severely violates Women’s right to a respectful life.
Useless to add that the local, US-friendly businessmen definitely rejoice with
this situation, which is well known to them!
By supporting the Muslim countries' lower classes, America and the West
would not support deviation and sins; they would support freedom vs.
hypocrisy. This is so, because it is execrable hypocrisy to pray five times per
day because of the 'premeditated calculation' that in this manner "I will
ensure myself a position in the Paradise".
And there is nothing worse in Islam than the Munafiqin, i.e. the hypocrites.
