One of the most poignant images from the movie is the fall
of Israel which had protected itself against the zombies by
a
wall which was eventually breached by the zombie horde. The comparison with
Israel’s current situation is overwhelming with the latest knife attacks by a
never ending number of Muslims. The difference between the movie and reality is
the Muslims attacking Israel are doing so
at the behest of
Imams, while in the wider world attacks are apparently being guided by the
leaders of the various Muslim terrorist groups such as in
Nigeria.
In the movie Pitt has several narrow escapes before
discovering the Zombies do not attack sick humans; the solution therefore is to
make humanity sick. Again the resonance with Muslims is striking. In Islam
there are
3
options offered to non-Muslims:
If they are people of the book [Jews and Christians] we demand of them the
jizya—and if they refuse, then we fight them. That is if he is Christian. He
has three choices: either convert to Islam, or, if he refuses and wishes to
remain Christian, then pay the jizya [and live according to dhimmi rules].
But if they still refuse—then we fight them, and we abduct their women, and
destroy their churches—this is Islam!… Come on, learn what Islam is, are you
even a Muslim?!
As for the polytheists [Hindus, Buddhists, etc.] we allow them to choose
between Islam and war! This is not the opinion of Ahmad al-Husseini
al-Baghdadi, but the opinion of all five schools of jurisprudence [four Sunni
and one Shia].
So let’s be clear here. Islam only leaves you alone, if you
become a Muslim, pay an extortion fee or if you are dead. That makes Brad
Pitt’s solution of infecting everyone with the flu to avoid becoming a zombie
look pretty good.
The West is currently involved in a phoney war with Islam.
During WW11 there was a phony war after the declaration of war with Germany
when the allies did not prosecute their declaration because they hoped Germany
would not commit more invasions and acts of aggression. They were wrong.
The current phoney war is even worse than the previous phoney
war because the West has not even declared war and is pretending the enemy,
Islam, is its ally against violent Muslims. The Western leaders continually
refer to this demarcation within Islam between the extremist, violent minority
and the non-violent, peaceful majority. There is no doubt only a minority of
Muslims are violent.
Professor
Clive Kessler estimates that violent minority at 10-15%. This is a minority
no doubt, but still a huge number in absolute terms, about 50-100,000 in
Australia and tens of millions world-wide.
Kessler estimates another 10-15% of Muslims are assimilated,
progressive thinkers ready and willing to live under the West’s secular laws.
This group are obviously apostates under the current form of Islam and run the
real risk of being targeted by the violent minority.
But what of the 70-80% majority? What do they want? Insight
into what the majority of Muslims want has been provided by
survey
after
survey
and
poll
after poll of Muslims. The original and best was done by
Professor
Riaz Hassan and his book,
Inside Muslim
Minds. Hassan found the vast majority of Muslims want the laws of the land
to reflect their faith. In this respect they are just like the violent minority.
The difference is they do not share the violent method of the majority.
It is difficult for individual politicians and media leaders
to come out and speak critically about Islam. The memory of the Charlie Hebdo
massacre is fresh in their minds, and no matter how influential that politician
or media person is they are still only an individual. When anyone criticises
Islam, they criticise all of Islam. It is a tough task. But unless the West
starts to do so and the phoney war ceases we are no better than Brad Pitt
running around the world watching helplessly as the zombies take over.
