Is Islam Really the Greatest Threat to the World Today?
Recently the former British Prime Minister, Tony Blair, in an interview, asserted that
“
radical Islam
”
was the greatest threat to the world
today. However, the term “
radical Islam
” is a comparatively recent phrase coined by the enemies of Islam to vilify Muslims seeking to
organize themselves and live according to the edicts of Islam. After the defeat of European Crusaders at the hands of Muslim armies inPalestine , the European powers realized that they could never succeed in capturing and retaining any Muslims lands unless they distort
the principles of Islam. Therefore, when European powers embarked on their aggressive colonial conquests, they did not only snatchedthese lands from the Muslims
but also concocted a complicated and malevolent plan to distort the religion of Islam: Firstly, they tried to dilute the concept of Jihad inIslam. Secondly, they introduced the European notion of separation of politics and religion.Thirdly, they abolished all Islamic laws and replaced them with man-made laws. The colonialists were aided in their plans by some
hypocrites and heretics who, being enticed by worldly gains, actively supported the European powers in their designs against Islam.
The enemies of Islam succeeded in their plans to such an extent that today, ours enemies can call any Muslim recognising the validity andimportance of these three aspects, as radicals and the whole world,including some simple-minded Muslims, actually believe their
propaganda. This brief historical summary is being provided to clarify any misgivings that an average reader might have about the
comments of the former British Prime Minister.As for his comments that
“
radical Islam
”
is the biggest threat to the world today; to call it a lie, would be an understatement. Tony Blairsaid that radical Islamists believed themselves to be justified in the use of chemical,biological, and nuclear weapons. To ourunderstanding, no Muslim country has ever been associated with the use of nuclear weapons, the only two nuclear weapons that wereused against civilian populations were those of Hiroshima and Nagasaki in Japan, and both of those crimes against humanity were carriedout by Americans.Even today, the U.S. and its coalition allies continue to use uranium-depleted weapons against innocent civilians in Afghanistan . Muslimswere not the ones who invented or used chemical and biological weapons in conventional (or unconventional) warfare.The first deliberate large-scale use of chemical and biological weapons occurred in World War I, where all the warring parties wereEuropean powers. Muslims do not stock-pile large quantities of chemical, biological, and nuclear weapons. The only countries who havethem are thevery same ones that call themselves the defenders of worldpeace . Their refusal to disarm their nuclear weapons, while denying othercountries the same measure of security poses the biggest threat to world peace today. When confronted with the hypothesis thatChechens, Kashmiris, Palestinians,Iraqis and Afghans were resisting foreign occupations of their lands, Tony Blair, who has always beena man of more form than substance, could not answer in any meaningful way,and simply resorted to typical British rhetoric calling ourentire way of life
“
regressive, wicked, and backward-looking
”
. We are no more regressive than Tony Blair with his nostalgic thinking of when Britain actually was a power that mattered. We are no more wicked than Tony Blair who continues to justify his decision to invadeIraq without any legal pretext and despite the fact that no weapons of mass destruction were ever found in Iraq . And we are no morebackward-
looking than Britain whose very way of life is based on what they received from us and Roman way of life.
For over two centuries, Western powers have been plundering the resources of Muslim lands and murdering its inhabitants with impunity.Theiraggressions against the Muslim populations have continued unabated until now. The discovery of vast natural resources and the
strategic importance of the regions have reignited the greed of the Westerners seeking to further pillage our lands. The Muslim
populations of these regions have been denied basic freedoms and their right to live according to their religion. This is why Westernpowers are so alarmed by this trend of Muslims returning to their religion and living according to its dictates. People like Tony Blair knowthat Islam is the only viable force in the world capable of thwarting their colonial ambitions in the region.It was largely due to this Islamphobia that, when the Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan was established, the Western powers were so quickin condemning it, and were looking for any pretext to destroy this legitimate government. The attacks on the twin towers were just theexcuse the enemies were looking for to try and destroy our religion once and for all. The United States began their invasions of Muslimslands onnothingmore thanunproven speculation. The evidence they presented was mere circumstantial conjecture barely admissible in
any legal tribunal.In one of the mostghastly acts in international law, the United Nations Security Council actually sanctified the invasion
of Afghanistan without asking for any kind of proof linking any attacks on foreign nations by the Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan.The very least the United Nations could have done was to verify the truth or falsity of the evidence presented by the United States, andnegotiate with the Islamic Emirate to set up a tribunal to give the accused culprits a fair trial under Sharia Law. Instead, the Westernforces began a policy of blatant violations of international norms and customs, while the United Nations and other so called champions of human rights remained muted. The truth is that the actions America , in concert with Britain (at the time led by Tony Blair), took have
proven to be the greatest threat to the world today. They have invaded and violated the sovereignty of dozens of Muslims countries
around the world. They have killed hundreds of thousands of innocent people in Afghanistan , Iraq and other Muslim countries. They havetaken innocent civilians off our streets and subjected them to the most grotesque forms of torture in Abu Ghuraib, Bagram and
