Imagine I ask for some things, and people agree to do as I
ask. So I ask that anyone who will be writing about the Middle East begins by
acknowledging in print: there are hundreds of times more rail accidents in North
America than in Egypt .
What do you think this will do to the conversation? In case
you didn't answer the question, such act will dramatically alter the
conversation because it will help deprogram the heads of the writers who cannot
say something about Egypt
without calling up the computer subroutine that adds to the article something
to the effect that Egypt
suffers frequent train accidents due to poor maintenance. It will deprogram the
heads of writers who will, in turn, erase the misleading subroutine from their
computers.
And while they are at it, those writers will want to
deprogram their heads of the other false ideas that have been hammered into
them. They will also want to erase the corresponding subroutines they have been
keeping in the computer memories. It would be nice if this were to happen
because the disinformation viruses that the Jewish propaganda machine has
planted in the heads of people as well as the memories of computers, have
reached such epidemic levels, the West is now doing the equivalent of cutting
its nose to spite its face when it comes to dealing with the Arab and Muslim
worlds commercially, diplomatically and militarily.
It would be even nicer if the North American writers
understood that what they were told about the prevailing attitudes toward
religion in the Middle East is pure
disinformation. Take for example this assertion: “Our nation's 'elite' knows of
the 88 percent support in Egypt for the death penalty for apostasy, and the 62
percent support in Pakistan.” Well, let me tell you, this is hogwash put out by
pollsters who lost the confidence of the public in their own countries (bear in
mind how wrong they were in Britain ,)
and so they got into the business of cooking survey results that stir up the
hatred and the fear of the public.
The story that came out is to the effect that the people who
say they conducted these polls first went to Iran , which is Muslim but not Arab,
and asked for statistics on the death penalty for apostasy. They discovered
that despite the fatwa on Salman Rushdie, no one was executed for apostasy in
that country. Disappointed, the pollsters who wanted to remain relevant
pretended to conducted surveys in several Arab and Muslim countries. But
instead of being truthful about their work, they practiced demagoguery because
they knew that hate and fear interest people so much, it pays to dabble in
them.
Knowing all of this, suppose now that people agree not to
write about the Middle East until they put
down this set of truths: Islam never attacked Christianity and does not attack
it now. What happened was that Western Christians started attacking Islam a
thousand years ago, and never ended the habit. Despite all this, Islam is now
protecting the Christians in its midst as it has done throughout the centuries.
If this were to happen, the relationship between the two
religions will change so much that no one would ever again think of doing what
Pamela Geller did. And there would be no writing like the two articles that
appeared in National Review Online. There, you'll find: “Pamela Geller's
Critics Are proving Her Point,” a piece written by David French and published
on May 7, 2015. You'll also find: “Why Won't Pamela Geller Shut Up?” a piece
written by Rich Lowry and published on May 8, 2015.
It is in the David French article that you'll find the quote
on statistics mentioned earlier. Without it, there would not have been that
article. Also, there would not have been a Rich Lowry article without the
following misleading assertion: “Coptic Christians won't concede error for
worshiping wrong God.” Instead, there would have been an acknowledgment that
the Muslims of Egypt descended into the streets by the hundreds of thousands to
circle and protect with their bodies, the homes of Christians and their churches.
And why is that? Because evil people from outside the
country believed they saw an Egyptian “vulnerability” and decided to take
advantage of it. They paid a few local provocateurs to stir up trouble, but got
back very little for their money. It turned out that the bond connecting
Egyptians to each other was stronger than the destructive power of the most
demonic maniacs – Jews and their gentile running dogs – that feed on chaos.
