False Direction in the Ongoing debate about the Islamist threat

By Erik Zimerman On November 26, 2015 · Add Comment · In Against the Wind, Avvisi

It has now been over week since the November 2015 Paris terrorist attacks. One of my initial reactions, was to criticise the typically shortsighted Western media coverage of the attacks, which were typically incorrectly jumping to conclusions about the source and objectives of the attack. They all started their “analysis” by presuming that France was “elected” as a target for this attack by the current Western euphemism for a boogeyman, ISIS or ISIL, in retaliation to some policy or combination of policies that France has applied externally and/or internally. As I wrote subsequent to the attack: Nothing could be further from the truth. No one “picked” France. The reason there are from 100 to 150 murdered people in Paris in a series of violent terrorist attacks in the last couple of days is because France and Paris are full of Muslims. To be more precise, France is full of Muslims and still has many non Muslims. This is the simple truth. And the more that the substantial non Muslim population placates and appeases the Muslim population, the more attacks there will be. France is at the very forefront of Muslim and Arab appeasement, and has been so for decades. This [...]

Islam strikes Again, and so does the Western Media

By Erik Zimerman On November 14, 2015 · 1 Comment · In Against the Wind, Avvisi

Watching coverage of the latest carnage the West suffered at the hands of Muslim terrorists is even more troubling than the terrorist acts themselves. This is so because the coverage only indicates that there will be much more death in the future. The coverage mostly surrounds “Why Paris, why France?” .. and the “expert pundits” desperately try to depict France as actually hard-line in the anti-terror and anti-muslim spheres in order to show why the terrorists have chosen Paris as the target. So France is actually too extreme in its battle against Islam, and this is why it has been targeted; incredible! Nothing could be further from the truth. No one “picked” France. The reason there are from 100 to 150 murdered people in Paris in a series of violent terrorist attacks in the last couple of days is because France and Paris are full of Muslims. To be more precise, France is full of Muslims and still has many non Muslims. And to be even more thorough, France has many Muslims, many non Muslims and/or Muslims who substantially disagree (ie Sunni and Shiites). Countries with substantial Muslim populations, and substantial non Muslim (or substantial disagreeing Muslim) population will suffer [...]

Charlie Hebdo Terrorist Attack and the Lame Response

By Erik Zimerman On January 9, 2015 · 1 Comment · In Avvisi, Joab's Men

That two armed terrorists slinging Ak-47s can inflict that kind of slaughter on a site that was already under police protection (that satirical paper had received numerous threats), murder 12 people there and then escaped unscathed… parade around Paris, to resurface later and take more hostages… alive 3 days later is unbelievable. It points to the height of incompetence and Frances’ inability and/or unwillingness to confront the Islamist enemy that has engulfed it. I have spoken about this unwillingness at length elsewhere. Less than two months ago, Jerusalem suffered a similar attack when two armed muslim terrorists attacked a synagogue in the neighborhood of Har-Nof and killed or wounded a score of unarmed praying civilians. A Druze police officer who arrived at the scene first was also mortally wounded. Two traffic cops in the vicinity quickly arrived, engaged the two scumbags in a gun fight and a third officer who arrived quickly shot and killed both terrorists. The incident, though ghastly in its death-toll, was over in minutes… long before any special forces even arrived. In Israel, thankfully at least this remains the case, if you show up with AK-47s trying to shoot at everyone, one thing alone is certain; [...]
