   Islam’s Useful Idiots   
   Author- Amil Imani   
      
   Islam enjoys a large and influential ally among non-Muslims: A new   
   generation of “Useful Idiots,” that Lenin identified living in liberal   
   democracies who furthered the work of communism. This new generation   
   of Useful Idiots also live in liberal democracies, but serves the   
   cause of Islamofascism—another virulent form of totalitarian ideology.   
      
   Useful Idiots are naïve, they are foolish, they are ignorant of facts,   
   they are unrealistically idealistic, they are dreamers and they are   
   willfully in denial or deceptive. They hail from the ranks of the   
   chronically unhappy. They are anarchists, they are aspiring   
   revolutionaries, they are neurotics who are at war with life, the   
   disaffected alienated from government, corporations, and just about   
   any and all institutions of society. The Useful Idiot can be a   
   billionaire, a movie star, an academe of renown, a politician, or from   
   any other segment of the population. Arguably, the most dangerous   
   variant of the Useful Idiot is the “Politically Correct.” He is the   
   master practitioner of euphemism, hedging, doubletalk, and outright   
   deception.   
      
   The Useful Idiot derives satisfaction from being anti-establishment.   
   He finds perverse gratification in aiding the forces that aim to   
   dismantle an existing order, whatever it may be: an order he neither   
   approves of nor feels he belongs to.   
      
   The Useful Idiot is conflicted and dishonest. He fails to look inside   
   himself and discover the causes of his own problems and unhappiness   
   while he readily enlists himself in causes that validate his distorted   
   perception.   
      
   Understandably, it is easier to blame others and the outside world   
   than to examine oneself with an eye to self-discovery and self-   
   improvement. Furthermore, criticizing and complaining—liberal   
   practices of the Useful Idiot—require little talent and energy. The   
   Useful Idiot is a great armchair philosopher and “Monday Morning   
   Quarterback.”   
      
   The Useful Idiot is not the same as a person who honestly has a   
   different point of view. A society without honest and open differences   
   of views is a dead society. Critical, different and fresh ideas are   
   the life blood of a living society—the very anathema of autocracies   
   where the official position is sacrosanct.   
      
   Even a “normal” person spends a great deal more energy aiming to fix   
   things out there than working to overcome his own flaws and   
   shortcomings, or contribute positively to the larger society. People   
   don’t like to take stock of what they are doing or not doing that is   
   responsible for the conditions of which they disapprove.   
      
   But the Useful Idiot takes things much farther. The Useful Idiot,   
   among other things, is a master practitioner of scapegoating. He   
   assigns blame to others while absolving himself of responsibility, has   
   a long handy list of candidates for blaming anything and everything,   
   and by living a distorted life, he contributes to the ills of society.   
      
   The Useful Idiot may even engage in willful misinformation and   
   deception when it suits him. Terms such as “Political Islam,” or   
   “Radical Islam,” for instance, are contributions of the Useful Idiot.   
   These terms do not even exist in the native parlance of Islam, simply   
   because they are redundant. Islam, by its very nature and according to   
   its charter—the Quran—is a radical political movement. It is the   
   Useful Idiot who sanitizes Islam and misguides the populace by saying   
   that the “real Islam” constitutes the main body of the religion; and,   
   that this main body is non-political and moderate.   
      
   Regrettably, a large segment of the population goes along with these   
   nonsensical euphemisms depicting Islam because it prefers to believe   
   them. It is less threatening to believe that only a hijacked small   
   segment of Islam is radical or politically driven and that the main   
   body of Islam is indeed moderate and non-political.   
      
   But Islam is political to the core. In Islam the mosque and State are   
   one and the same—the mosque is the State. This arrangement goes back   
   to the days of Muhammad himself. Islam is also radical in the extreme.   
   Even the “moderate” Islam is radical in its beliefs as well as its   
   deeds. Muslims believe that all non-Muslims, bar none, are hellfire   
   bound and well-deserve being maltreated compared to believers.   
      
   No radical barbaric act of depravity is unthinkable for Muslims in   
   dealing with others. They have destroyed precious statues of Buddha,   
   leveled sacred monuments of other religions, and bulldozed the   
   cemeteries of non-Muslims—a few examples of their utter extreme   
   contempt toward others.   
      
   Muslims are radical even in their intrafaith dealings. Various sects   
   and sub-sects pronounce other sects and sub-sects as heretics worthy   
   of death; women are treated as chattel, deprived of many rights; hands   
   are chopped for stealing even a loaf of bread; sexual violation is   
   punished by stoning, and much much more. These are standard day-to-day   
   ways of the mainstream “moderate” Muslims living under the stone-age   
   laws of Sharia.   
      
   The “moderate” mainstream of Islam has been outright genocidal from   
   inception. Their own historians record that Ali, the first imam of the   
   Shiite and the son-in-law of Muhammad, with the help of another man,   
   beheaded 700 Jewish men in the presence of the Prophet himself. The   
   Prophet of Allah and his disciples took the murdered men’s women and   
   children in slavery. Muslims have been, and continue to be, the most   
   vicious and shameless practitioner of slavery. The slave trade, even   
   today, is a thriving business in some Islamic lands where wealthy,   
   perverted sheiks purchase children of the poor from traffickers for   
   their sadistic gratification.   
      
   Muslims are taught deception and lying in the Quran itself—something   
   that Muhammad practiced during his life whenever he found it   
   expedient. Successive Islamic rulers and leaders have done the same.   
   Khomeini, the founder of the 1979 Iranian Revolution, for instance,   
   rallied the people under the banner of democracy. All along his   
   support for democracy was not a commitment of an honest man, but a   
   ruse. As soon as he gathered the reins of power, Khomeini went after   
   the Useful Idiots of his time with vengeance. These best children of   
   Iran, having been thoroughly deceived and used by the crafty phony   
   populist-religionist, had to flee the country to avoid the fate of
