choggiesays...hey gwann, apologies for the dicey, rabble-rousing, but in light of presenting a process, with regard to propaganda, this is a great case-study-The interviewee, with nothing but fairy tales and askew-perception to rely upon, has no argument, so he resorts to talking over the host, and avoiding questions.....the man is insane, and should be given a dose of, a harsher reality than even his-
Most politicians in the U.S. have the same, evasive, inept form in an interview.....most presidential candidates.....If folks let this shit go on, most people in the free world will be incapable of making decisions, processing information, or acting unilaterally on the simplest of decisions....in short, a world of empty husks...
Farhad2000says...Justification for terrorism against other Muslims by militant Islamists, in particular against Muslim regimes they consider non-Islamic, is often based on the contention that the targets are apostates. Osama Bin Laden, for example, maintains that any Muslim who helps "infidels over Muslims" is no longer a Muslim. Opinions within the Muslim community vary as to the grounds on which an individual may be declared to have apostatized. The most common view among Muslim scholars is that a declaration of takfir (designation of a Muslim as an apostate) can only be made by an established religious authority. Mainstream Muslim scholars usually oppose recourse to takfir, except in rare instances.
Criticism of Islamic terrorism on Islamic grounds has been made by anti-terrorist Muslims such as Abdal-Hakim Murad:
Certainly, neither bin-Laden nor his principal associate, Ayman al-Zawahiri, are graduates of Islamic universities. And so their proclamations ignore 14 centuries of Muslim scholarship, and instead take the form of lists of anti-American grievances and of Koranic quotations referring to early Muslim wars against Arab idolaters. These are followed by the conclusion that all Americans, civilian and military, are to be wiped off the face of the Earth. All this amounts to an odd and extreme violation of the normal methods of Islamic scholarship. Had the authors of such fatwas followed the norms of their religion, they would have had to acknowledge that no school of mainstream Islam allows the targeting of civilians. An insurrectionist who kills non-combatants is guilty of baghy, “armed aggression,” a capital offense in Islamic law.
