Islam And The West: Time For A Divorce

American  Thinker 

Islam is simply incompatible with Western civilization, and that couldn’t be more evident considering the 2025 Christmas and Hanukkah season. We get it rubbed in our faces, time and time again, with one massacre after another. These aren’t just lone gunmen who go nuts. These are organized terrorism cells. Bondi Beach, a massacre allegedly committed by two Muslims (father and son), is only the latest example.

San Bernardino, California was the scene of a similar massacre by two Muslims (husband and wife). Nineteen Muslims, backed up by the wealth of other Muslims, gave us 9/11.

Only Islam commands its followers to “kill the infidels.” As a result, we constantly see two (or a lot more) Muslims banding together to kill the infidels. That’s us.

The gay nightclub shooting in Orlando was by one Muslim security guard, who targeted homosexuals — it was, presumably, driven by the Koran’s commandto kill homosexuals. He killed 49 people and wounded 53.

There are literally hundreds of other examples from all over the world, such as the Charlie Hebdo massacre in Paris. I could publish an encyclopedia full of nothing but massacres of non-Muslims by Muslims, in the 20th and 21st centuries alone.

How To Stop the Violence

This has got to stop. Nobody is going to stop it, except Western governments. And there’s only one way to do it: ban Islamic immigration, revoke their refugee or temporary protected status, and deport those who are here illegally, for the same reason Germany banned the Nazi Party.

The Constitution forbids discrimination on the basis of religion, but this isn’t just a religion. And the Constitution isn’t a suicide pact.

Islam is a brutally misogynistic, brutally homophobic, brutally xenophobic, supremacist political ideology, pretending to be a religion. And it needs to be viewed that way by Western civilization. No matter how peaceful most Muslims seem, eventually a charismatic leader will come along who will radicalize them, for his own aggrandizement. That’s what’s going on right now in Iran.

Adolf Hitler had a Muslim infantry division in the Waffen SS for very good reasons. Islamists love killing Jews, which was permitted by a charismatic leader in Germany. If Islamists aren’t killing Jews, they’re killing Christians; or any other religion, nationality, or ethnic group.

Lebanon used to be a Christian nation. Afghanistan used to be a Buddhist nation. Pakistan used to be a Hindu nation. Now all three are Muslim nations. Does anyone notice a pattern?

The “Aliens” and “Green Apples” Analogies

Here’s a Facebook reel from Nathan Fang, using an “aliens from outer space” analogy. If aliens landed on Earth and began to harm us, Fang is convinced that “alien’s rights activists” would crop up shortly, advocating for the aliens and their right to remain.

There’s also a conservative gentleman in the UK who’s of Russian descent (I think, judging from his name) who did a Facebook reel on the following analogy: We have green apples, red apples, and yellow apples, just as we have Muslims, Christians, and Jews. But what if a tiny percentage of green apples were extremely toxic, and will kill whomever eats them. Would we have people insisting that green apples deserve to stay on the grocery shelf, for the sake of diversity?

Would we have scientists monitoring all the green apples carefully, developing some sort of hideously expensive system that detects which ones are toxic, at incredible expense (think of an America bristling with security cameras and traffic cams, like the quills on a porcupine — costing us not only tax dollars, but much of our privacy)?

No, we wouldn’t. We’d have the FDA banning green apples from our grocery stores.

The  “Neighbor” Analogy

The relationship between Islam and the West has been very much like that of a woman with a new, male neighbor. The following analogy will be condemned as collective punishment, as certainly, there are good Muslims in the world. But they have roughly 50 countries of their own, and they should stay there and make the best of what they have there.

In this analogy, when the lady’s new neighbor appeared, there was a lot of feuding: the Islamic invasion of western Europe in the 7th Century, followed by the Crusades, followed by two Turkish invasions that were stopped at the gates of Vienna in the 16th and 17th centuries.

Gradually, they established relative boundaries—but then the male neighbor developed a lucrative new career: oil. Eventually, the woman begins a relationship with him, because he’s got something she wants, and they marry.

Regardless of his professed good intentions, every now and then he beats her up — an analogy for all these massacres. Regardless of his wealth, every now and then he steals a piece of her heirloom jewelry, and sells it to support his drug habit — an analogy for the roughly $9 billion in fraud schemes we now see in Minnesota, almost entirely by Somali Muslims, also justified by the Koran (Surah Al-Anfal, Chapter 8; Surah Al-Hashr, Chapter 59; Surah Al-Baqarah, Chapter 2, Verse 190-194).

Any woman with any sense, and a husband who is really nice to her 99.99% of the time, but beats her up and steals from her 0.01% of the time, is going to start thinking about divorce. So she takes a look at his iPhone.

Every now and then, in his confidential texts to his pals, he openly admits that he wants to kill her — an analogy for all the “death to America” and “death to Israel” campaigns in Muslim nations.

Is there any doubt that such a woman wouldn’t be hiring a divorce lawyer in a New York second?

Why An Immigration Ban Must Be Enforced

I realize that we’re not talking about aliens, or apples, or even one woman and her husband. We’re talking about billions of human beings: a clash of Western civilization with Islamic civilization. Each individual has a unique set of values and behaviors.

Muslims such as Ayaan Hirsi Ali have adopted Western values, but generally, we’re not compatible. The minority of Muslims who endorse or commit the killing of non-Muslims is too substantial. We should live in separate spaces. It’s time for a divorce.

The existing 50+ Muslim-majority nations can continue to be laboratories for the development of Islamic civilization. And I truly do wish them all the best. They have plenty of oil and other resources. If they’re moving in the right direction with free and fair elections, fair wages, personal liberty, honesty in government and a reduction in violence, we could even help with a little foreign aid where needed.

But not so much mingling. Not until Islamic cultures mature out of their current, violent phase. Unfortunately, our own relatives, neighbors and friends — Western progressives — argue against divorce. “Muslims enrich us with their diversity,” they say. “And you’re living on stolen land anyway.”

When is the West going to stop listening to them, and do what is necessary for self-preservation?
