The myth of the “moderate Muslim” in America

Muslim Who Is ModerateAnd it is a myth.  There now exist the statistics to prove it.  Which begins to lend credence to the graphic below.

Muslim Radical vs ModerateOf course, it is not proper or politically correct to state the obvious when the obvious is screamed to be stated — primarily by Islam itself.

The Center for Security Policy released the following information just this last month on June 23rd.

Poll of U.S. Muslims Reveals Ominous Levels Of Support For Islamic Supremacists’ Doctrine of Shariah, Jihad

Press Releases | | The Muslim Brotherhood in America, Understanding the Shariah Threat Doctrine

According to a new nationwide online survey (Below) of 600 Muslims living in the United States, significant minorities embrace supremacist notions that could pose a threat to America’s security and its constitutional form of government.

Read this very carefully, Americans.  What is portrayed by your government and Leftists appears to be in direct contravention to the truth.

The numbers of potential jihadists among the majority of Muslims who appear not to be sympathetic to such notions raise a number of public policy choices that warrant careful consideration and urgent debate, including: the necessity for enhanced surveillance of Muslim communities; refugee resettlement, asylum and other immigration programs that are swelling their numbers and density; and the viability of so-called “countering violent extremism” initiatives that are supposed to stymie radicalization within those communities.

Overall, the survey, which was conducted by The Polling Company for the Center for Security Policy (CSP), suggests that a substantial number of Muslims living in the United States see the country very differently than does the population overall.  The sentiments of the latter were sampled in late May in another CSP-commissioned Polling Company nationwide survey.

But wait; those “moderate American Muslims” you’re told are good and tolerant people — and are in your community?

According to the just-released survey of Muslims, a majority (51%) agreed that “Muslims in America should have the choice of being governed according to shariah.”  When that question was put to the broader U.S. population, the overwhelming majority held that shariah should not displace the U.S. Constitution (86% to 2%).

More than half (51%) of U.S. Muslims polled also believe either that they should have the choice of American or shariah courts, or that they should have their own tribunals to apply shariah. Only 39% of those polled said that Muslims in the U.S. should be subject to American courts.

In this way Muslims appear to be something akin to the current occupants of the White House and DC: those pesky American laws simply don’t apply to me.

People who look upon Islam as nothing but another religion are duped and ignorant.  Islam is much more than a mere religion; it is a way of life, a duty, a political entity, something that crosses all aspects of Muslim life.  It crosses every aspect and influences and informs every decision made by a devout Muslim.

Even more troubling, is the fact that nearly a quarter of the Muslims polled believed that, “It is legitimate to use violence to punish those who give offense to Islam by, for example, portraying the prophet Mohammed.”

Understand this, however:

Nearly one-fifth of Muslim respondents said that the use of violence in the United States is justified in order to make shariah the law of the land in this country.

The findings of the Center for Security Policy’s survey of Muslims in America suggests that we have a serious problem.  The Pew Research Center estimates that the number of Muslims in the United States was 2.75 million in 2011, and growing at a rate of 80-90 thousand a year.  If those estimates are accurate, the United States would have approximately 3 million Muslims today.  That would translate into roughly 300,000 Muslims living in the United States who believe that shariah is “The Muslim God Allah’s law that Muslims must follow and impose worldwide by Jihad.”

  1. Recently I made a comment on the Dallas Morning News, a paper that is infested with Liberals, Socialists and Communists, on ALL levels, from comment makers all the way to the top, I was talking about a *solution* to radical Islam and my statement was *nuke em ’til they glow*…

    You should have seen the accusations thrown my way… LMAO… I never knew it was un-American to kill our enemies, I never realized that by calling for the death of our enemies that I made it plain that I had never served this nation because a REAL fighting man hates war and wouldn’t encourage it…

    It was hilarious…

    • Frankly, I’m surprised your comment was allowed to stand. Especially in Dallas, which is damned near as Left as any of the cities out here for Fornicalia.

  2. Chilling numbers. What’s even more chilling is how the reflexive chanters of toleration will just stir this into the diversity pot and then lose ALL sense of being ‘tolerant’ when you point out the ugly implications.
