Great article from Jihad Watch:

Here is the first bit but click over. It is a wonderfully put summary of what most of us largely know, but it is good to see it laid out like this. As much a work of cartography as an essay perhaps and a very useful one.

From Jihad Watch

Since 1948, almost 10 million Muslims have died at the hands of fellow Muslims

Where is the outrage over that? Double standards abound. As the Israeli envoy Dan Gillerman said in 2008: “When Christians kill Muslims, it’s the Crusades. When Jews kill Muslims it’s murder, and when Muslims kill Muslims, it’s like talking about the weather. Nobody really cares about it.”

And as the late Samuel P. Huntington observed: “Wherever one looks along the perimeter of Islam, Muslims have problems living peaceably with their neighbors. The question naturally rises as to whether this pattern of the late 20th century conflict between Muslim and non-Muslim groups is equally true of relations between groups from other civilizations. In fact, it is not. Muslims make up 1/5 of the world’s population but in the 1990s they have been far more involved in intergroup violence than the people of any other civilization….Islam’s borders are bloody, and so are its innards.”

Note also the Ahmadinejadesque (to coin a new term) rhetoric from Turkey’s Erdogan. “Why Golda Meir was right,” by Burak Bekdil for the Hurriyet Daily News, August 23 (thanks to Joshua):

It has been more than two and a half years since Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdo?an told to Israeli President Shimon Peres’s face, “You (Jews) know well how to kill.” Prime Minister Erdo?an has also declared more than a few times that the main obstacle to peace in this part of the world is Israel, once calling the Jewish state “a festering boil in the Middle East that spreads hate and enmity.” In this holy month of Ramadan full of blood on Muslim territories, let’s try to identify who are the ones who know well how to kill.

  1. Hey Eeyore, you posted this one here a few days ago, straight from the source. But, as a follow-up on that story, now Turkey’s leading loved-by-Western-dhimmis bogus moderate, Mustafa Akyol, is falsely claiming that Erdogan’s hydrophobic and hateful remarks were “taken out of context” by Burak Bekdil…

    Being a real mahoundian, Mr. Akyol sure must believe the hadith below, and swear by it:

    Abu Huraira reported Allah’s Messenger (may peace be upon him) as saying: The last hour would not come unless the Muslims will fight against the Jews and the Muslims would kill them until the Jews would hide themselves behind a stone or a tree and a stone or a tree would say: Muslim, or the servant of Allah, there is a Jew behind me; come and kill him; but the tree Gharqad would not say, for it is the tree of the Jews. (Sahih Muslim 6985)

    But, since in islam “war is deception”, he’ll do his best to continue to fool those falling for his non-existing moderation.

  2. Objectively speaking; Israel is a legitimate country and abides by the rule of law. A little more introspection on the part of the Muslim world would not go amiss. There are no reports of human rights abuses coming out of Israel. Human rights, rather like charity begins at home. They do not keep their refugees living in camps, one generation down after the other. Neither do they beat their women and children with ropes, or cut their throats or reduce them to walking around in bean bags. Rather, they educate them, both girls and boys to become fully productive members of society. Or do they treat their domestic guest workers like criminals. A little research would also prove that Israel is the only country in the Middle East who prosecutes to the full extent of it laws, the so called murderers who sarcifice their own young girls and women[Arab] to bestow upon themselves claims of “honor”. The list goes on.

    The litmus test is as always: where would an ordinary, every day person, who having a choice, choose to live: a Western style democracy such as Israel or US or an Arab Muslim country. We all know the answer. So it is best that the Muslim world leaders learn to adopt an approach of live and let live!
