It takes a nation to protect the nation
Maajid Nawaz on Islam vs Islamism?
The latest example of the mis-direction and obfuscation of Islam comes from Camden MP hopeful Maajid Nawaz who demands that UKIP condemn my friend Magnus Neilsen who is also a candidate in Camden. In the Ham and High of April 30, 2014 Mr Nawaz says:
“I read with some apprehension the comments reiterated by Camden’s UKIP chairman Magnus Neilsen singling out Islam the religion, and not Islamism the political ideology justifying itself from the religion.
“I call on Nigel Farage to condemn Mr Neilsen’s failure to distinguish between Islam and Islamism.
“I also call on all Muslims and Islamic organisations to join me in being equally robust about condemning Islamist extremists who also attack human rights, democratic culture and certain minorities in an equally wholesale manner when speaking in Islam’s name.”
I placed this comment there:
If Islamism justifies itself from the religion of Islam then Islamism is a subset of Islam, which of course means that Islam is the parent and Islamism the child. I blame the parents.
The first sentence is supposed be slightly cartoonish because, of course, it is a silly proposition, promoted by a deceiving and aspiring Muslim politician.
If you have time, do comment at the Ham and High publication and add to the enlightenment of its readers.

For the record, just yesterday I found a news clipping from 2008 in which Mr Nawaz says: ‘I have so much to celebrate as a British Muslim. The privileges I enjoy here are ones I may not be able to enjoy in Muslim-majority countries. It’s high time we celebrated that.’
(source: the independent on Sunday, 18 May 2008, p. 39, Credo, by Arifa Akbar)
Mr Nawaz, needs to understand that one of those privileges is freedom of speech and fair comment. My friend Magnus has not done anything other than comment on Islam. For that Mr Nawaz wants him to be condemned by the leader of UKIP. Rather, Mr Nawaz should engage in dialogue and debate with Magnus. To condemn people for speaking out is what happens in Muslim-majority countries. It looks like Mr Nawaz is revealing himself to be bit of a Sharia-pusher when things do not go his way.

Quite right. There is only one version of Islam- the extreme and violent one. AND every single Muslim is a follower of, loyal to and a believer in this doctrine. Any Muslim that denies this is a liar. There is for a Muslim only one law-SHARIA, and the war will not end until the entire planet has been forced to submit to Islam and become Muslim. Mohammed is Islam. All of it of course including Allah is a fiction, a belief in something that has no existence outside of the human mind- nonsense and pretend wisdom. This makes it even more dangerous and deadly, that all of its followers are homicidal idiots and nutcases.

Welcome to 4 Freedoms!
(currently not admitting new members)
Page Monitor
Just fill in the box below on any 4F page to be notified when it changes.
Muslim Terrorism Count
Mission Overview
Most Western societies are based on Secular Democracy, which itself is based on the concept that the open marketplace of ideas leads to the optimum government. Whilst that model has been very successful, it has defects. The 4 Freedoms address 4 of the principal vulnerabilities, and gives corrections to them.
At the moment, one of the main actors exploiting these defects, is Islam, so this site pays particular attention to that threat.
Islam, operating at the micro and macro levels, is unstoppable by individuals, hence: "It takes a nation to protect the nation". There is not enough time to fight all its attacks, nor to read them nor even to record them. So the members of 4F try to curate a representative subset of these events.
We need to capture this information before it is removed. The site already contains sufficient information to cover most issues, but our members add further updates when possible.
We hope that free nations will wake up to stop the threat, and force the separation of (Islamic) Church and State. This will also allow moderate Muslims to escape from their totalitarian political system.
The 4 Freedoms
These 4 freedoms are designed to close 4 vulnerabilities in Secular Democracy, by making them SP or Self-Protecting (see Hobbes's first law of nature). But Democracy also requires - in addition to the standard divisions of Executive, Legislature & Judiciary - a fourth body, Protector of the Open Society (POS), to monitor all its vulnerabilities (see also Popper).
1. SP Freedom of Speech
Any speech is allowed - except that advocating the end of these freedoms
2. SP Freedom of Election
Any party is allowed - except one advocating the end of these freedoms
3. SP Freedom from Voter Importation
Immigration is allowed - except where that changes the political demography (this is electoral fraud)
4. SP Freedom from Debt
The Central Bank is allowed to create debt - except where that debt burden can pass across a generation (25 years).
An additional Freedom from Religion is deducible if the law is applied equally to everyone:
- Religious and cultural activities are exempt from legal oversight except where they intrude into the public sphere (Res Publica)"
