I worked with the Iraqi government when I was stationed in Baghdad in 2007. As I have said before… the people of Islam neither understand by, nor live by the concept of “…life , liberty, and the pursuit of happiness...” the basis of our society. That Hasan would take innocent lives, denies the owners of those lives their God given right to enjoy liberty and pursue happiness. And, he is purported to have invoked the greatness of God while executing his plan to execute the terrified innocents.
For Muslims in the US, our Constitutional freedoms are in conflict with the tenants of the Koran (Quran?) For those of you have not tried to read from the Koran, the entire book reads like our (frightening) book of the Revelation. It is allegorical. Eminent Middle Eastern scholar and author, Bernard Lewis argues that the Middle East is currently backward and its decline was a largely self-inflicted condition resulting from both culture and religion.
We believe that we have a choice to be holy or hedonistic. Christians believe that they (we) will stand before God and be held in judgment (in the process, incurring an overflowing ration of our own propensity to judge.) We are cautioned that only God may judge. Christians are also taught to regard God as “our Father” and that the best access to his is “as a child”.
Islamic peoples allow men (NOT WOMEN) to judge on earth and mete out punishment according to their own volition. God is now and he is wrathful. Heaven will be the result of all of this strident enforcement of allegorical rules. By the way, the seventy two virgins are also allegorical… can also mean seventy two white grapes.
Only recently has jihad been ADDED conveniently as the sixth pillar of Islam. Peaceful Muslims will tell you that jihad is a personal struggle against infidelity. Islamic extremists have co-opted jihad to extend this “struggle” to killing “infidels”… who in the Koran are termed “children of the book” [Bible]. Until the outbreak of Islamic terrorism, children of the book were, by instruction from the Koran, well tolerated. Indeed, in Iraq and Persia, Christians and Jews lived unmolested in those regions.
Recall that most of the religious cults in this country have sprung from co-opting from the Book of Revelation. By law, we keep that in check. Islam IS the law in Iraq, Iran, Saudi Arabia, Somalia, Afghanistan… you get my point. Al Qaeda is a religious cult that leaked out. Hasan is part of the flood, as the dam… which held back the cultural failures of Islam… was allowed into disrepair.
