No Atheists
In A Foxhole

Rudyard Kipling

" “When you're left wounded on
Afganistan's plains and

the women come out to cut up what remains,
Just roll to your rifle

and blow out your brains,
And go to your God like a soldier”
General Douglas MacArthur

" “We are not retreating. We are advancing in another direction.”

“It is fatal to enter any war without the will to win it.”
“Old soldiers never die; they just fade away.
“The soldier, above all other people, prays for peace,
for he must suffer and be the deepest wounds and scars of war.”
“May God have mercy upon my enemies, because I won't .”
“The object of war is not to die for your country but to make the other bastard die for his.

“Nobody ever defended, there is only attack and attack and attack some more.
“It is foolish and wrong to mourn the men who died.
Rather we should thank God that such men lived.
The Soldier stood and faced God
Which must always come to pass
He hoped his shoes were shining
Just as bright as his brass
"Step forward you Soldier,
How shall I deal with you?
Have you always turned the other cheek?
To My Church have you been true?"
"No, Lord, I guess I ain't
Because those of us who carry guns
Can't always be a saint."
I've had to work on Sundays
And at times my talk was tough,
And sometimes I've been violent,
Because the world is awfully rough.
But, I never took a penny
That wasn't mine to keep.
Though I worked a lot of overtime
When the bills got just too steep,
The Soldier squared his shoulders and said
And I never passed a cry for help
Though at times I shook with fear,
And sometimes, God forgive me,
I've wept unmanly tears.
I know I don't deserve a place
Among the people here.
They never wanted me around
Except to calm their fears.
If you've a place for me here,
Lord, It needn't be so grand,
I never expected or had too much,
But if you don't, I'll understand."
There was silence all around the throne
Where the saints had often trod
As the Soldier waited quietly,
For the judgment of his God.
"Step forward now, you Soldier,
You've borne your burden well.
Walk peacefully on Heaven's streets,
You've done your time in Hell."

Omar Screams ‘Islamophobia’ … But There’s Nothing ‘Irrational’ About Fearing Islam by Raymond Ibrahim
Tuesday, February 07, 2023

Raymond Ibrahim : Due to a history of making anti-Semitic and generally divisive remarks, Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-Minn) has just been voted out from the House Foreign Affairs Committee.

But there’s another good reason to see her gone.  She is also one of the chief purveyors of the “Islamophobia” claim—which is used to silence any meaningful discussion on Islam.  Only three days before she was voted out, she had disparaged House Republicans of being “Ok with Islamophobia.”

And, as might be expected, her being voted out is already being chalked up to—you guessed it—“blatant Islamophobia.”

But while it’s good to see her disempowered, those who rely on the Islamophobia card are growing.  Indeed, wherever one looks, charges of Islamophobia are increasingly being cast against, and often negatively impact the security of, non-Muslims. A few examples from just the month of January, 2023 follow:

  • The National Council of Canadian Muslims “made liberal use of the ‘Islamophobia’ charge to hinder investigations into Muslim nonprofit organizations accused of funding terror operations in the Middle East.”
  • Canada appointed a rep to “fight Islamophobia,” thereby further hampering free speech, including in the realm of national security.
  • Various nations around the world “condemned Islamophobia” in Sweden, after an “extremist” burned a copy of the Koran. NATO member Turkey is going so far as to veto Swedish attempts to join NATO.
  • Hamline University in Minnesota accused and fired a professor on the charge of “Islamophobia,” only to retract after being sued for defamation.
  • A Paris mosque filed “a complaint against [a] French Islamophobic writer.”
  • “Islamophobia is an integral part” of the late Pope Benedict’s “legacy,” one of many op-eds and “influencers” claimed.
  • “Global terrorism” was “created by the West,” said an important Pakistani forum, and “has been used as a pretext for spreading Islamophobia in order to target Muslims around the world.”

Those are just a few of the charges to surface in January, 2023.  The year is still young and many more debilitating charges of Islamophobia are no doubt forthcoming.

Behind all of these past, present, and future accusations lays an assumption: that no one really ever had any problems with Muslims, until a few terrorist strikes occurred—chief among them, September 11, 2001—at which point, racist Westerners were only too happy to jump the gun and paint all Muslims as terrorists.

As a recent Al Jazeera article titled, “Decades after 9/11, Muslims battle Islamophobia in US,” claims: “The September 11, 2001 attacks on the United States ushered in a new era of hate crimes, racism, and xenophobia against Muslims.”

Reality is quite different. In fact, aversion to Islam is as old as Islam itself.  In this sense, the claim that Islamophobia is an actual phenomenon is accurate: non-Muslims have always feared Islam; but there was—and is—nothing irrational about this fear, as the word “phobia” implies.

From the very start, Western peoples, including many of their luminaries, portrayed Islam as a hostile and violent force—often in terms that would make today’s “Islamophobe” blush.  There’s a reason for that.  In 628 AD, Muhammad summoned the Roman (or “Byzantine”) emperor, Heraclius—the symbolic head of “the West,” then known as “Christendom”—to submit to Islam.  When the emperor refused, a virulent jihad was unleashed against the Western world.  Less than 100 years later, Islam had conquered more than two-thirds of Christendom, and was raiding deep into France.

While these far-reaching conquests are often allotted a sanitized sentence, if that, in today’s textbooks, the chroniclers of the time make clear that these were cataclysmic events that had a traumatic impact on, and played no small part in forming, Europe proper, that is, the unconquered portion and final bastion of Christendom.  In the words of historian Franco Cardini,

[I]f we … ask ourselves how and when the modern notion of Europe and the European identity was born, we realize the extent to which Islam was a factor (albeit a negative one) in its creation.

 Repeated Muslim aggression against Europe between the seventh to eighth centuries, then between the fourteenth and the eighteenth centuries … was a “violent midwife” to Europe. But it wasn’t just what they personally experienced at the hands of Muslims that developed this ancient “phobia” to Islam.
