After Bondi Beach terror attack, the West must face Islamist ideology with clear eyes

 NY Post  

It is foolish to think that some element of Muslim immigrants to the West won’t share this worldview and act on it — to our great regret.  

Bondi Beach Atrocity Exposes Australia’s Dangerous Naïveté

"Mainstream political parties across the West that have presided over this open-handed policy are, understandably, losing ground to restrictionist parties that are more clear-eyed about the realities of immigration. 

"Antisemitism comes in all sorts of varieties, whether Christian, Muslim or secular. 

"Still, it’d startle us to learn that someone who had been attending a fundamentalist Christian church went and shot up a Jewish event — whereas it’s not the least bit unusual in someone who’s an adherent of fundamentalist Islam. 

"Now, there are different interpretations of Islam, and it’s not the role of an outsider to say which is more correct: The key point is that important Muslim authorities and countless millions of the faithful embrace the fundamentalist version that’s influential in war-torn areas of the broader Middle East that have sent so many refugees to the West. 

"The fundamentalist Muslim Brotherhood — Hamas is the Palestinian branch — was markedly antisemitic well before the establishment of the state of Israel.

"As one analyst has noted, its anti-Jewish agitation included “boycotts, graffiti and physical violence.”

"Sound familiar?

"A rancid paranoia about the Jews runs through this worldview.

"The 20th century Muslim Brotherhood ideologue Sayyid Qutb referred to “the tricks played by world Jewry so that the Jews may penetrate into body politic of the whole world and then may be free to perpetuate their evil designs.” 

"The original 1988 Hamas charter reads like a transcript of a Candace Owens podcast, except with an armed wing attached. " . . .
