Islamic scholar, writer and Muslim apostate Ibn Warraq makes basically this point in his recent interview with Winston Marshall.
He uses a pseudonym to protect both himself AND his family from what he says is likely retribution if he revealed his real name.
Islam is a religion which uses violence and the threat of violence to maintain power. It appears that Keir Stalin approves of that. Can’t think why …. except it’s also the method used by secular Communists and Fascists.

Violent, irrational, intolerant, allied to racism and tribalism and bigotry, invested in ignorance and hostile to free enquiry, contemptuous of women and coercive toward children: organized religion ought to have a great deal on its conscience.
The above is a quote from Christopher Hitchens’ book, “god is not Great, How Religion Poisons Everything”.
One can perhaps argue that Christianity in the western world has been coerced to align itself more to modern values, but the basis is still there is only one God and it is better not to take the more violent passages in the bible too seriously. And the Muslims believe there is only one Allah and the Buddhists believe there is only one Buddha. Essentially, they are all the same.
FALSE! “Allah” is not Arabic, but a Sanskrit word for Kali-Allah.
Muslims, Sikhs, Hindus & Buddhists all worship KALI-ALLAH, “THE MOTHER GODDESS OF ALL INDIA”, the Moon Spider Goddess of Death, whose Toyboy is Shiva=Satan the Moon god of Destruction, whose symbol is the CRESCENT MOON & STAR featured on the flags of most Islamic countries.
Our Heavenly Father, Almighty God, Creator of Heaven & Earth, has NOTHING TO DO WITH THE DEPRAVED MOON SPIDER KALI-ALLAH, who is worshipped by millions pointing their backsides to Heaven as they bow down to her & Satan in Hell.
The Black Cube of Mecca is built directly over a Hindu temple to Kali-Allah, the apsidal wall foundation of which can still be seen projecting from one side of the Kaaba at ground level. Have a look yourselves.
Get it through your heads, people.
“The Unholy Muslim-Marxist Alliance” has been described for many years. It has also been called “The Red-Green Alliance”.
So many ex-Muslims on Twitter, which really underscores the importance of keeping this platform as a haven for free speech, despite the amount of trolls, bots and general haters who infest the place. It’s the ex-Muslims who are the biggest, most scathing critics of Islam because they’ve lived it and can speak from personal experience, their stories often harrowing.
One of many that I hugely respect for their courage and determination is Yasmine Mohammed, who was forcibly married off to an Al-Qaeda terrorist at a young age, endured years of abuse and subsequently had a daughter with him. She didn’t want the same life for her daughter so she eventually escaped abroad and is living under a false name and is now helping others in a similar predicament.

This article omits an important, if rather inconvenient, fact. In classical Islam (the kind we’re now sadly familiar with), the ultimate penalty for leaving is death.
From personal experience,I have a friend who converted to Christianity over 40 years ago. A relative pronounced a fatwa for apostasy.
He escaped and has managed to live an extremely productive life.
His story started me on my long journey of ‘Islamophobia’. Being on a Tube train on 7/7 and stuck in a tunnel with my wife thinking I had been killed strengthened that conviction. Having a friend murdered by an Islamic terrorist added to it.
Islam is the most utterly hateful theology in the world and I will never bow to our thought Police over this.
Or for not being a muslim.
Infidels are put to the sword.
It was how Europe was conquered by the Moors.
At that time ~711 AD Europe included North Africa but not now after the Moors over ran it and conquered Sicily and most of Spain to establish a Caliphate which lasted 700 years into the 15th Century with some incursions into France.
It also means Palestine was not in Muslim hands until over 700 years after the birth of Christ and so means Jewish peoples have the better claim.
Is there anything that anyone can type here that would not be classed as “Hate Speech” by Oberst Starmerbanfuhrer? It is better though when it comes from Muslims themselves because then the left have no race card to play, and no equality and diversity to chuck at us for pointing out the bleedin obvious.

___________________________
Sturmführer ([ˈʃtʊʁm.fyːʀɐ], “storm leader”) was a paramilitary rank of the Nazi Party which began as a title used by the Sturmabteilung (SA) in 1925 and became an actual SA rank in 1928. Translated as “storm leader or assault leader”, the origins of the rank dated to the First World War when the title of Sturmführer was used by leaders of German shock troops and special action companies.[1]
By 1930, Sturmführer had become the lowest commissioned officer (CO) rank of several Nazi Party paramilitary organizations, including the SA.[2] The title was also used as an SS rank until 1934 when, after the Night of the Long Knives, the SS renamed the rank Untersturmführer,[3] equivalent to a junior or second lieutenant (OF-1b) in the army. Other variations of Sturmführer included Obersturmführer and Hauptsturmführer, ranks paralleling an army first lieutenant and captain respectively.

Possibly the most baleful legacy of the civil madness, is that it’s become acceptable to criminalise speaking the truth.
Sorry, covid madness.
In my 1st year at university we had a muslim lad from Leicester who’d become a Jehova’s Witness. It was pretty grim, cousins kept driving up from Leicester to try & drag him back. He wandered around petrified. A big price to pay to join another weird religion, though i think all religions are weird.
He didn’t return after for the 2nd term, I’ve no idea what happened to him but the whole episode was very distressing.
So who’s paying for her to go to university?
Lucky she can be sure she will never be thrown into prison for putting online photos of illegal immigrant Muslim men landing on English beaches, even though they do this every day.
I look forward to research projects interviewing Working Class English Men & Boys, giving their honest views about Mass Third World Immigration.
Speaking of which, news of yet another appalling betrayal of them today: this time an English pensioner, whose one-man, years-long peaceful protest against Third World immigration at a local cenotaph attracted the attention of a Third World Millionaire with political ambitions and a grudge against Farage. The Millionaire reportedly “encouraged” an Englishman to befriend the pensioner and persuade him to go on hunger-strike. Said Millionaire then offered to bring the frail, weakened pensioner to London to meet him, and arranged a tv news interview, in which the pensioner thanked the Millionaire, and vowed to continue his hunger strike even unto death, in defence of British women and children who had suffered so many attacks and sexual harassment from illegal aliens over the years.
Well. I guess in Labour’s rule book a few thousand ex-Muslims living in fear, being intimidated or threatened is a price well worth paying for such a generally useful and immensely versatile tool for controlling and censoring the population as the idea of islamophobia.
Wait a minute— is the author actually assuming that everyone reading his research article will approve and sympathise with the Muslim Sodomite woman, calling her parents “abusive” for feeling a natural revulsion for Sodomy, and trying to stop her from engaging in Sodomy with other women???
Notice that her parents never threatened to throw her off any high buildings, a punishment reserved for only the VICTIMS of Sodomite rape.
The Bible is very clear about Sodomy, a very useful English word covering all the categories of LGBTwhatever, except for Paedophilia.
Sodomy means unnatural sexual relations between Males with Males, Females with Females, and Humans with Animals. And that is why God destroyed the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah in the Old Testament.
This is crystal clear for all Christians of any denomination, and for all Jews who adhere to the Torah, which includes the first five books of the Old Testament, and the Talmud.
And yet, strangely, the very first Sodomite Marriage ceremonies in Britain were held in Jewish synagogues, by Jewish rabbis.
People need to understand that Sodomy is just another SOUL TRAP.
Our government is in the hands of the UKs national socialist party.
It is the Left and Far Left vs the White and Far White.
Good article. Except Atheism is not a religion. It is an absence of religious beliefs.
That is agnosticism.
Atheists believe there is/are no God(s).
Agnostics don’t give a shit either way.
I can’t resist a quotation from Winston Churchill, in his 1899 book The River War:
“How dreadful are the curses which Mohammedanism places on its votaries ! Besides the fanatical frenzy, which is as dangerous in a man as hydrophobia in a dog, there is this fearful, fatalistic apathy. The effects are apparent in many countries. Improvident habits, slovenly systems of agriculture, sluggish methods of commerce and insecurity of property exist wherever the followers of the Prophet rule or live. A degraded sensuality deprives this life of its grace and refinement; the next of its dignity and sanctity. The fact that in Mohammedan law every woman must belong to some man as his absolute property – either as a child, a wife or a concubine – must delay the final extinction of slavery until the faith of Islam has ceased to be a great power among men.
Thousands become the brave and loyal soldiers of the faith: all know how to die but the influence of the religion paralyses the social development of those who follow it. No stronger retrograde force exists in the world. Far from being moribund, Mohammedanism is a militant and proselytising faith. It has already spread through Central Africa, raising fearless warriors at every step; and were it not that Christianity is sheltered in the strong arms of science, the science against which it had vainly struggled, the civilization of modern Europe might fall, as fell the civilization of ancient Rome.”
Awesome.
