Anywhere Islam is the majority, there is oppression, conflict, and struggle.\u00a0 Think of the wars and conflicts being fought on this planet; then, think of the countries that have large Muslim populations, and you\u2019ll find those two maps overlay one another.\u00a0 From Nigeria in Africa, to Yemen on the Arabian Peninsula, Gaza, Syria, Afghanistan, and to the jungles of\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.dw.com\/en\/philippines-ending-clan-wars-crucial-to-sustaining-peace-in-muslim-south\/a-64624559\">the Philippines<\/a>, Islamic societies are engaged in armed conflicts to suppress and oppress those populations.\u00a0 And also don\u2019t forget, a small number can be very dangerous: the 9\/11 attack was carried out by only 19 Muslims.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In Islamic countries, conflicts, struggles, and oppression have been ongoing for centuries; no end in sight, and it\u2019s important to remember that above all, Islam is an ideology as dangerous and evil as any ideology ever conceived, using religion as a scapegoat.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Appears the author is also anti-Semitic, but that doesn&#8217;t mean she&#8217;s wrong about islamism Islam is Not a Religion What is Islam?\u00a0 To answer that question, it\u2019s more important to know what Islam isn\u2019t.\u00a0 Islam is not a religion.\u00a0 It is an authoritarian, political ideology that forcibly imposes itself on all aspects of any society &hellip; <a href=\"https:\/\/milesfortis.com\/?p=97734\" class=\"more-link\">Continue reading<span class=\"screen-reader-text\"> &#8220;&#8221;<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[34],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-97734","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-moslems-jihadis"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/milesfortis.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/97734","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/milesfortis.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/milesfortis.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/milesfortis.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/milesfortis.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=97734"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/milesfortis.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/97734\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":97735,"href":"https:\/\/milesfortis.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/97734\/revisions\/97735"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/milesfortis.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=97734"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/milesfortis.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=97734"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/milesfortis.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=97734"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
