Summary
It's my right and obligation to criticize religion when it needs it. But to criticize a religion that's usually tolerant and not prone to provocation and getting worked up about it? That's right, it's Islam. I mean, we've got synagogues and Jewish schools being targeted around the world, as the bullets are flying and the bombs are detonating. Media and government agencies are tying themselves in knots to avoid speaking about the root of the problem, and that root is Islam.

but for starters i'm going to provoke a religion that's usually tolerant and not prone to provocation
00:00:14.040
or getting worked up and that's islam so let's talk about them and i'm going to begin by quoting
00:00:19.320
the wisdom of mr bean also known as rowan atkinson this is from him he said something
00:00:23.900
online just to criticize a person for their race is manifestly irrational and ridiculous but to
00:00:30.860
criticize their religion that is a right and that is freedom and that's where i just want to start
00:00:35.820
that because we know as soon as you start talking about islam somebody's gonna call you a racist
00:00:40.380
i'm not talking about any race i'm talking about a religion and it is my right and obligation to
00:00:46.620
criticize religion when it needs it so let's get on with critics critiquing the world's most
00:00:51.980
troublesome religion and that is islam i mean we got synagogues and jewish schools are being
00:00:56.300
targeted by violent attacks around the world as the bullets are flying and the bombs are
00:01:00.300
detonating media and government agencies are tying themselves in knots to avoid speaking
00:01:04.780
about the root of the problem and that root is islam islamic terrorists have tossed bombs at
00:01:09.260
police and demonstrators in new york cnn responded with a headline saying two pennsylvania teenagers
00:01:14.460
crossed into new york on a saturday morning for what could have been a normal day and joining
00:01:17.820
the city during abnormally warm weather, but in less than an hour their lives would drastically
00:01:22.100
change as the pair would be arrested for throwing homemade bombs during an anti-Muslim protest
00:01:26.660
outside of Mayor Zoram Mamdami's house. They made it sound like the terrorists were part of
00:01:32.100
the anti-Islamic protesters. They neglected to mention that the terrorists yelled Allahu Akbar
00:01:36.300
before attacking, as most terrorists tend to do. A man named Iyam Mohamed Ghazali, who had ties to
00:01:43.620
Hezbollah drove a car into a Michigan synagogue with a truck packed with fireworks and gasoline.
00:01:49.360
He was thankfully killed before he could detonate things. CTV dutifully reported on the incident
00:01:54.180
with the headline, investigators worked to determine the exact reason for the attack
00:01:58.980
at a Michigan synagogue. Really? As if there was any question about the motivation. Or in Amsterdam,
00:02:04.980
there's another beauty. A bomb was set off at a Jewish school. Writers post a headline saying,
00:02:08.560
explosion lightly damages Jewish school in Amsterdam. Lightly damages. That's right up
00:02:14.020
there with mostly peaceful. We saw when race riots were burning American cities a few years ago. They
00:02:18.840
made it sound like the attack on the school is more like a backed up toilet or something.
00:02:23.420
You know, minor damages. I mean, what was it if a few fingers or legs were blown off? We'd call it
00:02:27.820
moderate damages. These attacks have to be taken seriously. Meanwhile, thousands gathered in Toronto
00:02:32.900
for the annual Islamist hate fest called Al-Quds Day, where they call for the death to Jews and
00:02:37.640
usual stuff, block streets and entrances to buildings with Islamic prayers.
00:02:42.680
The Toronto Star called it a pro-Palestine rally, but there was anything but.
00:02:46.560
In response to all of these incidents around the world, though, this was the cherry on top,
00:02:49.820
the Canadian Security and Intelligence Service issues a post saying,
00:02:53.960
today we stand against Islamophobia and all forms of hatred.
00:03:01.840
if CSIS really believes Islamophobia is a threat to Canadians,
00:03:07.300
No mosques have been attacked. There's no anti-Islamic stuff going on, guys.
00:03:12.480
By definition, a phobia is an irrational fear of something.
00:03:15.640
Islam is responsible for the vast majority of terrorist acts around the world.
00:03:19.320
Every Islamic-dominated country on Earth commits human rights violations the Western world would never consider tolerating in its borders.
00:03:25.620
Islam uses a justification for subjugation of women in the murder of LGBTQ people throughout the Middle East,
00:03:31.420
and no Islamic nation tends to live in peace with any non-Islamic neighbors.
00:03:38.280
Look, that's because the root of Islam isn't just to go out and spread the good faith like
00:03:42.000
other religions. The word Islam itself means submission, and it mandates its followers to
00:03:46.620
either convert or kill other people of other faiths. There's no option for peaceful coexistence.
00:03:51.640
And don't take my word for it, take theirs, right from the Quran itself. Here's some choice quotes.
00:03:56.780
Surah 3, 151, we shall cast terror into the hearts of all those who disbelieve.
00:04:01.220
Surah 2, 19, 1, we'll kill them, and they're meaning non-Muslims, whenever you find them,
00:04:07.600
kill them, such is the recompense of the disbelievers. Surah 9, 5, then kill the
00:04:12.920
disbelievers whenever you find them, capture them and besiege them, lie and wait for them
00:04:18.060
in each and every ambush. The book is replete with such statements and quotes, and they aren't
00:04:23.260
ambiguous in their demands. This isn't a matter of interpretation. Apologists point out that the
00:04:27.640
Old Testament and religious texts from other faiths have some violent and intolerant passages
00:04:30.920
and dictates as well, and that's true. But the adherence of those faiths have undergone
00:04:34.760
reformations, and they'll practice literal interpretations of their books as Islamists
00:04:39.520
do with the Koran. You never heard a person yelling, Jesus loves you, or Shalom Alekhem
00:04:45.440
before detonating a bomb or shooting citizens of people on a beach, or dozens of people
00:04:50.880
on a beach. The term we always hear is Allahu Akbar, which is rather distinct to Islam.
00:04:55.980
I understand that the majority of Muslims don't become radical, but the volume of those
00:05:00.160
who do from that faith is disproportionately high and is causing problems around the world
00:05:04.440
and it has to be called out because it's an inherently problematic faith. Pretending there
00:05:08.740
isn't a problem or that other religions have the same issues and problems isn't addressing the
00:05:13.140
issue. The world has to stand up and confront radical Islamists. It must be made clear that
00:05:17.540
their medieval ideals have no place in the modern world and won't be tolerated in Western nations.
00:05:22.520
That means it's time to narrow immigration allowed from certain nations and deportations
00:05:26.440
of practicing islamist fundamentalists must start to happen if that's what's going to take
00:05:30.520
quarantine the nations that produce islamist extremists until they find the reformation which
00:05:34.440
has eluded them for the last 800 years and never pretend that any other faith kills cartoonists
00:05:39.640
and riots over beauty pageant winners that's the exclusive domain of islam and we have every reason
