God Is Great
In God we trust. Do we not? And for the greater glory of God, in His signal honour, great personal sacrifice is demonstrated day after day. God's fervent adherents struggle to perform Godlike actions, skipping the precursor to the 'taking away' and sliding right into destruction of 'thine enemies'.Not only is there the presence of al-Qaeda, but also that of al-Qaeda in Iraq, surpassing its parent by one yardstick after another.
Al-Qaeda felt itself justified in sending its emissaries on passenger flights to smash into the living symbol of American pre-eminence in world political stature and economics, sending its living tools into Paradise, and the hapless victims of the World Trade Center and air passengers to another place to which Allah in His infinite wisdom consigned them.
Osama bin Laden does not rest on his laurels; he assiduously grooms successors and sends out ripples of irresistible compulsion to join with fascistic jihadism far and wide, enjoining the engaged and the enraged to do their duty to global jihad for the greater purpose of the achievement of a renewed caliphate.
Abu Musab al-Zarqawi, somewhat more determinedly fanatic (and who knew such a state was possible?) sends his emissaries on countless missions to elevate the sacred sites of Islam into shattered pieces, and the devout Muslims within praying to Allah shattered along with them. For the greater glory of God, the Divine Spirit, the Compassionate, the All-Seeing.
Those mosques, after all, were dedicated Shi'ite, an affront to Allah in their errant ways, in accepting an impostor inheritor. Rest assured, Iran's Revolutionary Guard is more than adept at countering the Sunnis; training and arming Muqtada al Sadr's Shia militias to visit upon the Sunnis the end-of-days scenario that the Sunni terrorists are granting the Shias. To the greater glory of God.
Now al-Qaeda in Iraq has blessed the Yazidis with their unwavering attention, blasting that sect's adherents into oblivion for their error in judgement in murdering one of their own for her error in judgement. Hundreds of lives shattered beyond redemption by four truck bombs, and many hundreds more horribly wounded to ensure their trauma becomes folk legend.
Let us not overlook the dark wisdom of Hezbollah, itself armed, trained and financed by Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corps. Gifted with thousands of Iranian missiles, aided and encouraged by the Revolutionary Guards, doing their brave utmost to cause as much carnage to their neighbour as possible. Alas, in the process, sacrificing their Islamic brothers and sisters, but all for the greater glory of God.
In Afghanistan and in Pakistan the struggle between reason and passion continue, with Islamist forces militating against governments positioned vulnerably between civil breakdown and Islamist victory. Pakistan's citizens make the choice to avoid extremism only to be treated to a fundamentalist tantrum of opposition. Tribal fundamentalists handily lend themselves to the presence of Taliban and al-Qaeda.
In Turkey, that reasonable and secular nation, like challenges. Their moderate leader in the grand tradition of Turkey's honoured Mustafa Kemal Ataturk, now none other than a member of an Islamist party. With another, seemingly more ardent Islamist set to become President of Turkey, thus weighing the prime minister and the president against the fundamentalist-averse Turkey military. Does this mark the beginning of a collapse into raging Islamism?
Hamas, let us not forget that tender group's purpose; the support of the Palestinian people, the scourge of the 'occupying power', with a vision of overcoming the State of Israel and supplanting it with a State of Palestine, occupying the landmass upon which Israel governs itself as a legitimate nation of intruders into Muslim-held territory. Their ferocious aim is to extirpate the intruder and embrace in whole the geography now severed.
Serving Allah. For is it not written, is it not demanded of good and pious Muslims that they never permit land once occupied by Muslims, by Islamic states, to be converted blasphemously outside Islam? Is it not forbidden to permit a nation of another ethnicity, another religion to sully that formerly sacred land?
India too, celebrating its 60th anniversary after the achievement of independence from British rule, faces ongoing challenges by al-Qaeda and related Islamist groups, widening the gap between Hindu and Muslim, desperately attempting to re-enact scenes of bloody carnage during the separation and re-birth of Indian, Pakistan, Bangladesh. Kashmiri insurgents threaten to topple the tender balance.
Incendiary activities throughout the world; not to be forgotten are the threats and actions against Islam-averse targets in Spain, Britain, Australia, the U.S., Germany, Amsterdam, Indonesia and elsewhere in this increasingly nervous world.
Allahu Akbar!
