Wolfgang Bruno wrote a book about the Internet movement of ex-Muslims. All of Bruno’s essays can be freely published and reprinted by anybody who wants to.
France, where a growing Muslim minority is in effective control of parts of the country , is launching a £8.7 billion programme to tackle disaffection and increasing religious extremism in its Muslim-dominated ghettos. The labour minister, Jean-Louis Borloo aims to create a million jobs and 500,000 new homes in what has been called a "Marshall Plan for the towns" . Under the Borloo plan, the youngsters would be enlisted for public service training projects. It sounds positive to call the initiative a “Marshall Plan”. After all, the Marshall Aid, provided by the USA to support a democratic Europe following the devastations during World War 2, is viewed as one of the most successful such initiatives in modern history. However, it is important to remember that the Marshall Aid was given to help rebuild societies after our ideological enemy had been crushed, not before. If somebody had killed Hitler in the late 1930s, should we then have provided financial assistance to Germany to win the hearts and minds of “more moderate” Nazis? As longs as the Fascist ideology behind Hitler remained alive and received general support, this would have been both futile and dangerous. Our enemies would have viewed it as tribute paid by a weak opponent, and would perhaps have used it to finance weapons aimed to kill us. The situation today is similar to this. As long as Islam remains strong and unreformed, any attempts to “buy off” Muslims will produce little results, only more contempt for our “softness” and lack of spine. Jizya is a punishment tax that non-Muslim dhimmis according to the Koran 9,29 are supposed to pay for “protection”, “in willing submission”, as a sign of their inferior status to their Islamic rulers. Muslims will thus show little gratitude if non-Muslims give them money. This is Allah’s will and is only to be expected from the infidels. The French or other Europeans who give welfare money and support to Muslims and hope this will somehow buy them goodwill do not understand what they are dealing with. Muslims will think this is a sign that you accept having been defeated and being subjugated to Islam’s might. As a result, they will become more aggressive and demanding, not less. The problem in France’s immigrant ghettos is too much Islam, not too little money. Would sharia-style stonings in the suburbs cease if you raised the unemployment payments? Would the gang rapes in the ghettos? If so, then why isn’t a person like Abu “The Hook” Hamza peaceful? He does live on the dole in the UK. We are told to find ways to win the hearts and minds of Muslims. Very few care to ask whether or not this feat is possible at all. What if the hearts and minds of Muslims are already occupied by Allah and Muhammad, and the only way to get their approval is by converting to Islam, or submitting to their rule as second – or third class citizens in a religious apartheid system? If that is the case, it means that all the projects aimed at giving financial assistance to Muslims are at best a waste of money, at worst outright counterproductive. Welfare payments are not the only way transfer of money to Muslims from Western pockets takes place. There were many arguments presented by those who opposed the Iraq war. Most of them were poor. Yes, war is justified if it is for deposing tyrants that constitute a threat to both their own population as well as that of other nations. Saddam Hussein clearly fits that description. However, as reports keep ticking in about Iraqi women being harassed and subject to sharia laws and Christian churches being burnt , we need to ask ourselves a difficult question: Are we supporting the establishment of an Islamic state in Iraq, paid for by Western blood and money? And maybe in Afghanistan, too? As Mr. Robert Spencer writes, this illustrates one of the downsides of this War on Terror. This isn’t a war on “Terror”, and it is confusing and pointless to label it as such. Terrorism is just a method. Our adversary is an ideology, and that ideology is called Islam. Perhaps we should, as Hugh Fitzgerald has suggested, name it a “War on Radical Islamism”, “War on Political Islam” or a “War against Jihad”, to avoid the issue of identifying the very religion of Islam as the problem. However, we should always keep the real enemy closely identified in our minds. Western civilization is now engaged in a battle for its very survival. Not only do our leaders refuse to name the enemy, as large parts of our populations are unaware of the fact that there is a struggle going on at all. We are still busy paying our enemies to destroy us, through buying billions of dollars of their oil, providing aid to their countries or giving them welfare money they use to build more mosques and support Jihadist activities in our lands. This has to change, or we will lose. This struggle could last for decades, if not generations. Our enemies want to bleed us dry, both literally and economically. While Yassir Arafat’s wife has received hundreds of millions of dollars from Europeans taxpayers to buy Gucci purses, and billions and billions of dollars are spent on supporting Iraqis who clearly have their own Islamic agendas, the people who are risking their lives every day in challenging this ideology are penniless and more or less ignored. It is no exaggeration to say that Muslims fear ex-Muslims like Ibn Warraq, Ali Sina, Anwar Shaikh, Walid Shoebat and Azam Kamguian at least as much as, if not more than our nuclear arsenals. Islamists don’t fear war or death. On the contrary, they relish it and the opportunities it provides for martyrdom and safe passage to Paradise. Islam is a warrior creed, a very good one. As an intellectual construct, on the other hand, Islam is brittle, and will collapse if sufficiently challenged. That is why Islamists are so desperate to kill critics like Theo van Gogh. And that is why this is precisely an area were we should put much more resources at work. Ibn Warraq’s books and others made by former Muslims should be translated by professionals into every major language know to man, made freely available on the Internet and broadcasted on radio to Muslims everywhere. With due and generous compensation paid to the authors, of course. Their websites should receive funding for the upgrades needed to reach a mainstream audience, as should the best websites by non-Muslims such as Jihad Watch. All of this will cost only a tiny fraction of the money now wasted on misguided schemes for “dialogue” with Muslims, and will yield far greater results. In the era of the suicide bomber, we cannot afford not to do it. If not, our children and grandchildren could be paying a much heavier price tomorrow.

This is an excellent article.
This is an excellent article. Islam has survived for so long because of the lack of strong criticism. In its very nature, Islam is a very weak religion. Firstly, the quran is very poor book. It has poor grammer, poor literally style, poor message, poor everything. Secondly, there is nothing new that muhammad introduced. I just think that arabs at the time were so primitive in such a way that when muhammad claimed to be a prophet (well I believe he was a charismatic person) they instantly believed in him. Hitherto they had never met a person of muhammad charisma and intelligence. For instance Jews had used to have people of charisma, intelligence, authority throughout their history. People like moses, samwel, jesus, paul, etc. No wonder jews immediately sensed muhammad to be an impostor and rejected him outright. Thirdly, muhammad had no proof of his prophethood. All jewish prophets did powerful miracles to convince the jews. Jews could have never believed anyone without a strong proof. But muhammad proof, quran! What a stupid thing, no wonder muslims are stupid to this very day. Forthly muhammad character. How could muhammad marry a 6 year old infant? With his power and influence he could have taken any beautiful girl he loved, but what, a 6 year old girl?
The West needs to halt it's
The West needs to halt it's appeasement of Muslims. It's all too true that France is being overrun by these people. I couldn't believe my eyes when I returned to France and saw how much it had changed in 10 years. It's rather horrifying and sad to see the French being so drastically changed. They're going to have to learn the hard way that Islam is a violent stringent way of life that won't bend or yield for anyone except their own.It's time to step upthe efforts to keep the Islamists down and out for good.

Excellent article. I left Islam as well because of the sick ideologies it teaches, and the fact that the Quran and the religion itself has "messed up the intelligence and reasoning skills of the muslim mind". All Ex-Muslims need to come out and tell the world the Truth about this evil deceptive religion. The character and actions of the muslim "Allah" towards non-muslims, and the character and actions of Muhammed PROVE that this religion is massively FALSE from its core and inception. The information provided to the world from Ex-Muslims is the only real way that the world will learn the Truth about Islam.
The Quran actually encouraged Muhammed to seek "Guidance and Light" from the People of the Book (Jews and Christians) - who the Quran states have the "True Light From Their Lord".

Excellent article! It's true
Excellent article! It's true muslims fear most the exposure by ex-muslims.
To discourage the jihadists, maybe we to burry the remains of the sucide bombers together with pigs. General J.J. Pershings burried the dead jihadists together with pigs. After this action he didn't have any jihad attacts anymore.
There are many Muhammadans
There are many Muhammadans who don't like to accept that there are many Muslims who are leaving Islam. Some of those are here with us in this Forum and love to post the fake videos sponsored by the Saudis where false information is abound galore. Muhammad (piss be upon him) with his stupid book made them so stupid that they cant saty a say without telling lies morning to evening. Their whole life is a lie and they die burdened with lies.

Its the interview of an ex-Muhammadan Hamas leader who converted to Christianity from Islam and spilled all the beans on Hamas.

As Wolfgang Bruno said, all the ex-muslims' books ( Ali Sina, Ibn Warraq, Marc Gabriel...) should be published freely on the internet. It will expose all the reality of this sect, and eventually anihilate the 'politically correct' attitude and effects of our western governments. It will probably also start public debates on what should be considered a religion as compared to a sect.
Meanwhile, we should find a way to compensate all these authors for the efforts and energy they put to expose this human shame and error called Islam.
France is already taking the
France is already taking the steps required to the dhimmi state; free money and employment for muslims because they are higher on the ladder than the secular majority; France has given up the War against islam; mistake to bring in the cheap labor? Keep bending over and taking it; but don't steal anything when they rule you or you too can have your hands and feet chopped off on oposite sides, just like your heros in Saudi

Dont cry Terrorist Reader. Just because you cant face the truth, and you love to live in the fantasy world of yours. I just love the way you call me a Hindutva Ibrahim. Feels good to get rid of your Islamic past. Thank you Reader. Anything but a Muhammadan.

Actually the Arabs did not believe Muhammed and they tested him, by having their most intelligent scholars examine his revelations. Muhammed failed.

Socialism ( or should I say dhimmitude ) at work. France is going to spend all this money on their Muslim population. In the end they will be sadly disappointed to find the Muslim problem is still the same and they wasted billions of dollars on useless projects. Seriously those youngsters they are referring to are second and third generation immigrants, who had planty of opportunity beforehand to receive a better education and job skills. So why is there situation so pitiful? It's because they chose not to assimilate into French society. They just want to sit around and do nothing while collecting welfare from the state.
Excellent article.

USA is spending billions of dollars for war on terror. This money should be used to publish books exposing Islam. USA should take initiative to persuade Islamic counties to lift ban on FFI so that people there will have access to information that lead them to free thinking.
