Western Blindness

Are "Western" civilizations oblivious to the Jihad movement taking place in many parts of the world today?

Islam, the religion of peace, is drastically being changed to conform to a divisive interpretation of the Koran. Forget the economy. We have a much bigger battle (on a much bigger scale) and the average person either lives in a bubble or gives into the propaganda. The website below is a great resource for news and information that never makes the newspaper headlines, never makes the nightly newscast, and never comes up in everyday conversations. Read some articles. Browse some of the provided links. Make an educated decision.

Jihad Watch

Because non-Muslims in the West, as well as in India, China, Russia, and the world over, are facing a concerted effort by Islamic jihadists, the motives and goals of whom are largely ignored by the Western media, to destroy their societies and bring them forcibly into the Islamic world -- and to commit violence to that end even while their overall goal remains out of reach. That effort goes under the general rubric of jihad.

Jihad (in Arabic, "struggle") is a central duty of every Muslim. Modern Muslim theologians have spoken of many things as jihads: the struggle within the soul, defending the faith from critics, supporting its growth and defense financially, even migrating to non-Muslim lands for the purpose of spreading Islam. But violent jihad is a constant of Islamic history. Many passages of the Qur'an and sayings of the Prophet Muhammad are used by jihad warriors today to justify their actions and gain new recruits. No major Muslim group has ever repudiated the doctrines of armed jihad. The theology of jihad, which denies unbelievers equality of human rights and dignity, is available today for anyone with the will and means to bring it to life.

Jihad Watch is dedicated to bringing public attention to the role that jihad theology and ideology plays in the modern world, and to correcting popular misconceptions about the role of jihad and religion in modern-day conflicts. We hope to alert people of good will to the true nature of the present global conflict.
