The Useful Idiots

From a reader:
Dear Sir,
I do not know if you agree with the confused, distorted blanket
denunciation of "
Europe
" in the article by Mathias Dopfner posted on your site, but I feel
compelled to comment on a few things:
Dopfner writes:
"Appeasement cost millions of Jews and non-Jews
their lives as England and France, allies at the time, negotiated and hesitated
too long before they realised that Hitler needed to be fought and defeated,
because he could not be bound by toothless agreements." and later with
regard to Bosnia "We were still debating when finally the Americans
had to come from halfway around the world, into Europe YET AGAIN, to do our work
for us."
The fact is,
Britain
and
France
were fighting Nazi Germany a full TWO YEARS before the
United States
officially entered WWII. Although President Roosevelt was personally
sympathetic to the cause of beleaguered
Britain
he had to contend with a powerful "keep
America
out of
Europe
's war" lobby in Congress and the American public at large, some of which
were sympathetic to Nazi Germany. I would add that it is a bit rich of this
German writer, a large section of whose forebears voted the Nazis into power, to lambast
England
for its "appeasment" of Hitler. Furthermore, it is utterly
absurd to liken Neville Chamberlain's ill-fated attempt to gain "peace in
our time" from a man utterly committed to war with so-called European
"appeasment" of the Serbs in the Balkan's. When Chamberlain stepped
of the plane waving his infamous scrap of paper following his meeting
with Hitler, the memories of the terrible 1914-18 war were still fresh
in the minds of the British people - whose desire to clutch at any straw to
avoid another round of mass slaughter is hardly to be condemned.
As far as "appeasing" the Serbs in Bosnia is
concerned I seem to recall that the west as a whole including the United States
rode roughshod over the wishes of the Bosnian Serbs in their recognition of an
independent Bosnia ruled by Islamic fundamentalist Alija Izetbegovic and aided
and abetted Izetbegovic's international Islamic terrorist allies who had
filtered into the area as they aided and abetted the KLA terrorists in Kosovo.

Dear Mr. Fournier
Mathias Dopfner is not condemning the British for desiring peace, he is condemning them for their inability to
see evil in time and for wanting peace when war was needed.
There is a time for peace and there is a time for war. When you are
attacked, you must fight back. If you choose peace, when the enemy wants to kill
you, you have chosen death. If Hitler was stopped earlier, millions of lives
would not have been destroyed. It was thanks to this British desire to clutch at
any straw to avoid another round of mass slaughter that London was destroyed
under Nazi blitz and many Britains were killed in rounds of mass slaughter.
Whether your interpretation of history is truer or not is not the point. The point that Dopfner raises is not about the past
but about the present. He is saying that
Europe
would be committing a grave mistake if instead of fighting against Islam, she
tries to appease the Islamists. Islam must be confronted forcefully and rejected
completely. It is nothing but insanity to recognize a doctrine that calls you
impure, idolater and even pig and orders its follower to slay you as a
legitimate religion. Recognizing Islam is
accepting your own death warrant. Muhammad said kill the unbelievers. You are an
unbeliever. If you recognize Islam, you are agreeing to be killed. Isn't that
stupid?
Muslims in
Europe
have gained too much power. The more Muslims become powerful the weaker
Europe
becomes. Europeans must realize that Islam is not just another religion in
their multi cultural religious rainbow but rather is their enemy. Islam aims to
destroy their culture, their democracy and take away their freedom. They must
realize that Muslims are not going to integrate in their countries but rather
want to swallow them. If the Europeans do not wake up soon and do not start deporting the
Islamists en masse and denouncing Islam as their enemy, they will be annihilated
sooner than they can think.
More abhorrent than war is making peace with evil. In the words of the
18th Century British parliamentarian Edmund Burke, "All that is
necessary for evil to triumph is for good men to do nothing." Those who
advocate peace with Islam are fools of this century. If we do not stand against
Islam it will grow and then billions will die. Trying to appease Muslims is
foolish. It is informed by ignorance of Islam. Most cancers are treatable, if
detected in time. But if you ignore them because you think fighting them is
daunting, they will grow to a stage that will kill you. Today we have the
choice. We can either fight Islam and extirpate it before it threatens our
existence or wait and face the apocalypses.
The threat of Islam today, is much greater than the threat of Nazism during
the 1930s. Failure to address this threat will result in a war more devastating
than the Second World War. Those who
advocate peace do not want peace. They are either the enemy itself that wants
you to remain peaceful so he can kill you easily or the useful idiots
who have no understanding of the danger the world is facing and have fallen into
the trap of the enemy, dancing to the beat of their drums.
Many old timers in this site can recall that prior to buying the domain
faithfreedom.org I used to host this site at golshan.com. Golshan.com is
controlled by Iranian communists. These people supported Khomeini and the
Islamic Revolution to topple the regime of the Shah. However, Khomeni paid them
back by killing many of them and imprisoning the rest. When Tripod.com banned my
site to appease the angry Muslims who protested, Golshan.com offered to host my site for free
and I accepted. At that time their site was only in Farsi and it was only
criticism of Islam. I thought that since these people have suffered from the
hand of the Muslims they have come to their senses and will never side with
Islamists again. Also it is my goal to unite all the forces opposing Islam in
one common front. Islam, has launched this war against mankind. So we must all
unite and fight it back. That is why, even though I am a secular humanist, I
work hand in hand with Christians, Jews, Hindus and pagans and urge everyone to
put aside their differences and focus on our common fight. I could not believe
my eyes when a couple of days ago I received an email from these Iranian communists
openly promoting Jihadism in Iraq.
Under the mask of “Iranians for Peace”, these opportunists and hate
mongers showed their true colors in a
collection of cheap and childish video clips that they put together, in
which they shamelessly and openly endorse Islamic terrorism in Iraq. These videos, like
anything else the communists do, lack intellectual content and are loaded with
emotionalism, catchy songs and suggestive flashy pictures aimed to distort the facts.
Like Michael Moor's movie, they appeal to the most stupid and uncritical minds, but who else could possibly
be interested in communism?
This is the real face of the goons in the so called “peace camp”. These
Iranian communists who repeatedly betrayed Iranians and during the time of
Stalin, strived to annex Iran to USSR, have sought refuge in the
West to escape Islamic terrorism in Iran and now, true to their treacherous
nature, they are supporting Islamic terrorism in Iraq and oppose the West. These
people are not for peace. They want anarchy. They want mayhem and chaos. Only
through disorder they hope to seize the power. The enmity of the leftists
against democracy and Western values is so intense that they choose to side with
Islamic terrorists and back up suicide bombings and beheading civilians to
prevent democracy take root in
Iraq.
They are afraid of democracy like cockroaches are of light. America
is the bastion of democracy and the leftists can’t stand it. Europe is
tilting towards the left and in her gritty antagonism to
America, she is flirting with Islamism. Europe
is in great danger and will pay a huge price for her support of Islam or her
unwillingness to confront Islam head on. There is
only one way to describe the Europeans' appeasement of Muslims and that is
“suicidal”.
For the first time in her history, Iraq
has the chance to choose democracy. For that nearly 2,000 young Americans gave their lives
and tens of thousands of innocent Iraqis have been killed by the Islamists. This
war could have ended a long time ago if the Muslim Jihadists had not prolonged
it. America
is not in Iraq
to occupy it. It is there to protect, or rather help her give birth to
democracy, to freedom, to representative and responsible government, to justice and to peace. It is the Islamists and their
allies in the so called “peace camp” that are waging war and killing
innocent people.
Let us remove these masks of deception. Those who advocate “peace”
and demand more appeasements and concessions for Muslims are not really working
for peace. They are either the enemy itself, or the “useful idiots” working
for the enemy.
"Useful idiot" was a sobriquet that the the Chinese Premier Chou En
Lai had given to the Indian Prime Minister Jawaharlal Nehru for his blind
appeasing the communists and for in 1955 turning down the offer of permanent membership in
the United Nations Security Council for India and arguing that the Communist
China should get the seat instead. "The first step to be taken is for
China to take her rightful place, and then the question of India might be
discussed separately," India's then prime minister Jawaharlal Nehru
wrote in a letter to the country's top political leaders – explaining why he
supported Beijing. He said "Hindi Chini bhai bhai", Indians and
Chinese are brothers. But all these did not stop China from invading India in
1962. Appeasement never works
Today the leftists are the “useful idiots” for appeasing the Islamists,
just as Neville Chamberlain was the useful idiot for appeasing the Nazis.
Actually the term "Useful
Idiot" is believed to be coined by Vladimir Lenin to describe those
gullible western reporters who would endorse the Soviets who in just three
months had tortured and executed more dissenters than the czars had done in 92
years from 1825-1917. Later on these "useful idiots" would
continue praising communism, its policies and its "achievements"
during the Cold War. They became apologists for the excesses of the Soviets and
did their best to deflect any criticism of this brutal regime.
Today, most of the Western
politicians and the mainstream media are vying for that dubious distinction to
be the useful idiots for Islam. They volunteer to defend Islam, become its
unpaid apologists and say Islam does not preach peace, every time there is a
news about terrorism.
The question is; whether the
Europeans also want the title.
