Twenty Questions to Ask a "Moderate" Muslim

Can there be non-terrorist / non anti-Semitic Muslims in Islam? Sure there can be. Just as Oscar Schindler who being a member and a major player within the Nazi party was not inwardly an anti-Semite but one who actually had compassion for the Jewish people, there are perhaps some within the peoples of Islam who like Schindler are not anti-Semitic as well. However, it would be a terrible mistake to judge the religion of Islam based upon such a tiny minority of Muslims rather than Mohammad, the Koran, the hadiths, the Islamic history and culture, just as it would be a mistake to judge Nazism based upon the life of Oscar Schindler rather than Adolph Hitler, the entire Nazi party, and the Holocaust. It boils down to Oscar Schindler not being a "true" Nazi even though he wore a Nazi pin and was officially part of the Nazi Party.

Based upon what I've learned of "true sharia Islam" I believe that there are no "true moderate Muslims" in the world of Islam based upon the same principle that there were no "true" moderate Nazis within Nazism. Moderate Muslims are like the Mexican Chupacabras, the existence of such beings are only real within the mythological world, and not in a world of reaity. In order for there to be true moderate Muslims there would have to be a true moderate Islam, but there is not! What would appear to be moderate Muslims are those who use a moderate-Muslim deception (tekiyah in Arabic) and those who are simply non-devoted and or uneducated of the life of their warlord-prophet and his terrorist-based religion!

As the human body can be carriers of a disease such as TB or inactive AIDS without obvious symptoms, I believe every so-called moderate Muslim is a carrier and has the potential of becoming what true Islam really is, which is a terrible spiritual disease that can kill the soul. Most radical Muslims (the devoted and literal followers of the Koran and Hadiths) were once carriers (moderates) before becoming "full blown" in the mind with this terrorist religion. There are ways to diagnose the tendencies of true Islam within the moderate mindset. The answers to the right questions will allow appearance into the subconscious that will reveal that the moderate Muslim really isn't so moderate after all.

If you do ask challenging questions to a Muslim, watch for five things:

1. Their facial expressions (if possible).
   
2. How careful they are in wording their response. Usually this is a sign of tekiyah being used to protect Islam.
   
3. Their total avoidance on certain issues which is another sign of tekiyah in use.
4. Their overall anger and frustration at being exposed.
   
5. How quickly they are to answer no more questions once they have learned what their answers to your questions are leading to.

I've come up with "twenty questions" that I believe will help squeeze-out the hidden radicalism that lies within most all so-called moderate Muslims! These questions can best be used for "call-in" television and radio talk shows who are interviewing tekiyah-spokespersons from organizations such as:

• C.A.I.R. Council on American-Islamic Relations > http://www.cair.com/Home.aspx
• I.C.A. Islamic Center of America > http://www.icofa.com/

Twenty Simple Questions

1. Since the 9/11 hijackers died in transgression (sura 9:84) is it fair to say they went to the Allah prepared hell for their suicide /murderous acts?
Follow up question:
Did Allah, whom the 9/11 hijackers praised by yelling the words "Allahu akbar" as they sacrificed their lives to and for him, prepare a burning fire for all the "non-believers" that were murdered on 9/11 in accordance with sura 48:13 1 and Sura 98:6 2 concerning non-believers?

2. Was the events of 9/11 carried out by Islamic extremist or by the Zionists to make Islam look bad? > http://www.worldnetdaily.com/news/article.asp?ARTICLE_ID=29849

Follow up questions:

• Did approximately 4,000 Jews avoid going to work on the day of 9/11 because they were "tipped off" by the Israeli government about the attack that they had orchestrated?
  http://www.adl.org/anti_semitism/9-11conspiracytheories.pdf
• If the 19 hijackers of 9/11 (15 of which were Saudi Wahabist) were indeed working for the Israeli Mosad as antisemitic conspiracy theorists claim, why are these 19 Zionist workers referred throughout the Muslim world as "The Magnificent 19"? http://www.worldnetdaily.com/news/article.asp?ARTICLE_ID=34223
• Why did Osama bin Laden and his deputy Ayman al-Zawahiri admit joyfully to something that the Zionists had supposedly done? http://www.pbs.org/newshour/updates/binladen_10-29-04.html

3. Does every Palestinian suicide bomber that blows themselves up among Jewish civilians (public buses, bus stop locations, banquet halls, pizza parlors, ect.) and who likewise die in transgression (sura 9:84 3) also receive the Allah prepared hell for their suicide / murderous acts?
Follow up questions:

• If not, then why not? Aren't Palestinian terrorist acts upon innocent civilians (men, women, children, senior citizens, and infants) just as evil as the 9/11 hijacker's acts of evil? Does the victims being Israeli Jews somehow cause a change of the eternal outcome for the villain-terrorists - from the 9/11 hijackers burning in hell to the Palestinian suicide bus bombers receiving paradise and 72 virgins, in your moderate Islamic view?
• If Palestinian suicide bombers go to hell as the 9/11 hijackers did, then what should be done (or what would you be willing to do as a moderate Muslim) in the Muslim world to discredit official Palestinian television (PA as well as Hamas television) that glorifies these "evil doers" as entering the gardens of paradise and receiving virgins in that paradise in return for their transgression of religious murder?

4. Has there ever been any Jewish temples in what is today's Jerusalem? > http://www.adl.org/Anti_semitism/arab/temple_denial.asp If not, out of all the holy places in Arabia (such as #1 Mecca and #2 Medina) why was the city of Jerusalem that had no Muslim structures (such as a Mosque) nor any Muslims living in or around the city at the time of Muhammad, be the special placed picked for Muhammad to travel to (via ru' ya -vision) during his "Night Journey"?

Follow up questions:

• Why was the Qiblah (direction of prayer) originally instructed by Muhammad to be towards "Jerusalem" of all places even before the "Night Journey" in 620 CE, in which it wasn't changed to be towards Mecca until three years after the Night Journey in 623 CE?
• Why does the Night Journey tale fall under a sura titled "Bani Isra'il" (Children of Israel) in which the story of the Night Journey begins in verse 1 and is followed by the subject of the "Children of Israel" in verse 2 4 and the suject of the "Jewish temples" in verses 4-7 5? Do you see any connection between a Jewish temple and Jerusalem within this sura whatsoever here?
• Given the fact that both the Hebrew Scriptures and the New Testament (which are centuries older than the advent of Islam) states that the Jewish temples were indeed in Jerusalem (II Chronicles 3:1 / St. Mark 11:15), and given the archaeological finds such as the Trumpeting Stone and the Temple - Gentile Warning Plaques> http://www.bible-history.com/jewishtemple/JEWISH_TEMPLEArchaeology.htm, the inscription near the Jaffa Gate made by the Tenth Roman Legion of whom Josephus refers to as the ones who destroyed the temple in 70 CE, and the depiction on the Arch of Titus in Rome > http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arch_of_Titus, is it possible that the Palestinian Muslim Temple deniers like the moderate Mahmoud Abbas, Nabil Sha'ath, Sa'eb Erakat, and the rest of the Muslim world who remain silent on such denials, are indeed seeking to establish Jerusalem as a Palestinian capital based upon a immense Jewish - denial underlined historical lie?

5. Was there a Holocaust during the Nazi reign that murdered "six million Jews" or was there a conspiracy on the part of the Zionists to fabricate a Holocaust in order to obtain a Jewish state on stolen Palestinian land? > http://www.pmw.org.il/holocaust.htm#1
Follow up questions:

• Do you find it strange as a moderate Muslim that most all of the Holocaust deniers are also Temple deniers as well? Why do you think that is?
• What do you think the moderate Mahmoud Abbas has to gain by denying both the Holocaust and the Jewish Temple being in Jerusalem?
• Since the terrorist-minded Yassir Arafat was also a Holocaust / Jewish temple denier, do you think that it is becoming of Mahmoud Abbas to follow suit as a moderate? If not, then why not?

6. Was the Grand Mufti of Jerusalem, Haj Muhammed Amin al-Husseini that met with Adolph Hitler in November 1941 a good and righteous Muslim or a bad and evil Muslim? http://www.palestinefacts.org/pf_mandate_grand_mufti.php
Follow up questions:

• How would you defend Husseini's announcement over a Berlin Nazi radio in March 1944, "Kill the Jews wherever you find them" (by which he was quoting a holy hadith) and that, "This pleases God, history, and religion” ?http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mohammad_Amin_al-Husayni
  
• Was Hussenini in making such pro-Jew killing statements just trying to keep the Jews from steeling Muslim land in Palestine?
• Was Yasser Arafat wrong in applying Husseini to the Palestinian people as "our hero"?
  http://www.pmw.org.il/bulletins-050802.html
• By judging his works on earth, would you say as a Muslim moderate that the "Mufti" Husseini went to be with Allah in the Gardens of Paradise, or to a burning hell where disbelievers in Allah go?

7. According to the Koran, Mohammad is an excellent example of conduct for believers to emulate (sura 33:21 6). As that excellent example to Muslim believers, Mohammad dug trenches (like the Nazis did at Auschwitz) before personally taking part in the beheading all the Jewish men (including all young boys who had pubic hair growth) of the Jewish tribe Banu Qurayza that lived in Yathrib (now Medina). After having the beheaded bodies dropped in his pre-dug trenches, Mohammad then confiscated their land and valuable property items, and placed the surviving women and children of the tribe into harsh slavery. Therefore, what does this messenger of Allah and his "excellent example" act of merciless oppression and the killing of Jews mean to you as a moderate Muslim?
Follow up questions:

• How much does Mohammad's historical actions toward Jews living in the cities of Medina and Khaybar effect your views toward Jews in Israel and elsewhere today?
• Should Jews be allowed to live anywhere in Saudi Arabia and including Mecca? If not, then why not? Wouldn't allowing Jews to live in Mecca show the true Islamic moderation that you claim true Islam is?
  

8. Do you support the killing of Dutch filmmaker Theo van Gogh who was stabbed to death on November 02, 2004 for his film "Submission" >http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Submission_(film) that insulted Muslim women?
Follow up statement:
Please explain the difference of Mohammad, being an excellent example of conduct, ordering a Jewish poet named Ka'b bin Al-Ashraf to be beheaded for insulting Muslim women via poems, and the murder of Theo van Gogh for insulting Muslim women via film.

9. What should be done with the non-believers who insult Mohammad by depicting him in Dutch cartoons? Should they be beheaded as many Muslims in London suggested on February 3, 2006 by holding up such signs that read "Behead Those Who Insult Islam" (see picture above)? Since Islamic history records that the excellent exampler of conduct himself (Koran 33:21) had a one hundred-year old man named, Abu Afak and a pregnant women named Asma bint Marwan killed for simply insulting him, why shouldn't the Dutch cartoonist meet (in Allah's way shown by his excellent-exampal messenger) the very same fate?

10. Of the following two choices which had you rather have as a moderate Muslim:
A. America to stay the same under the current US Constitution that provides such things as "freedom of speech" and "freedom of religion" whereby Islamic sharia law can never had a superior preeminence" as commanded by the Koran 7.
B. America to fall under sharia Islamic law and become an Islamic state where Christians and Jews would be officially recognized as a lower dhimmi status, and where things like "freedom of speech" - such as the freedom to speak agianst Islam and Mohammad - and "freedom of religion" such as converting away from Islam, would not only be unlawful, but carry on sharia style death sentence with it?
Follow up question: Of the two choices above, what would Mohammad, being an excellent example of conduct for believers (Koran 33:21) pick for America if he were alive and given the same choice today?
Follow up questions:

• Should the White House become a great white mosque for the Nation of Islam?
• Should the US Capital building become another great mosque for the Nation of Islam?
• Should State capital buildings in every state become mosques for the Nation of Islam?
• Should the US Supreme Court building be a Sharia Law center where fatwas are issued?
  

11. If a Muslim does succeed in killing the now knighted Salman Rushdie according to the fatwa given by the late Ayatollah Khomeini for insulting Islam in his book "Satanic Verses" >

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Salman_Rushdie will that Muslim be in "transgression of Allah's Koran" by doing so (in taking an innocent life) or was the fatwa itself evil in nature (against the Koran) coming from an Ayatollah -the highest Islamic authority in Shia Islam?

12. Does Islamic law forbid the killing of women and children during warfare?
Follow up question:
Would this forbidding of killing women and children exclude the 4000 Hezbollah rockets that was shot at random targeting non-military populations including men, women, children, and infants in the summer of 2006, and agian the additional 6,500 rockets that was shot into Israel by Hamas in 2008? If so, then how so? If not, why not?
Follow up question:

• Does the Islamic forbidding of killing women and children include hundreds of Qassam rockets being shot towards population area including elementary schools in Sderot Israel?
  

13. Would you be a happy moderate Muslim if Iranian president Ahmadinejad wiped Israel off the map with a nuclear bomb?
Follow up questions:

• Who should have won the Six Day War that was intended to annihilate Israel by "pushing Israel into the sea"?
• How is Ahmadinejad's "wipe Israel off the map" rhetoric not the "same in principle" to the rhetoric of the Islamic nation leaders had when they sought Israel's destruction in 1967?

14. Please explain with your best moderate interpretation the hadith "Sahih" (reliable collection) Muslim book 41 number 6985 that states: "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."

15. Why did the Mohammad, being an excellent example of conduct to believers (sura 33:21) command his Muslim believers not to take Jews and Christians as friends (sura 5:51)?
Follow up questions:

• Was such a commandment given because Mohammad received a revelation from Allah , that the Jews were the most violent of people towards the Muslim believers (sura 5:82)?
  
• Is there a sura-connection of the two verses concerning the forbidding of taking Jews as friends and the Jews being the most violent people towards believers coming out of the "same" sura (sura 5:51 / sura 5:82)?

16. Do you believe that the Jews are the most mischievous of all races of people in the entire earth, and that it's the Jews who are always starting the wars that Allah has to put out according to sura 5:64?
Follow up questions:

• Did the tiny Jewish army or the multiple Arab armies start of 1948-49 War of Independence, the 1956 Sinai Campaign, the 1967 Six Day War, 1973 Yom Kippur (or October War) 2006 Lebanon war?
  
• When Allah "put out" these Jewish-started wars above in accordance to sura 5:64, why has the Israeli Jews always been the Allah-denying victors?
  
• Why does Adolph Hitler agree with sura 5:64 in his manifesto Mein Kamph concerning the Jews being the most mischievous race of people? Did Hitler have some Allah-given insight?

17. Are the modern Israelis true Jews descendants of the biblical Abraham, Issac, of Jacob or Khazars from the Khazar Kingdom?
Follow up questions:

• Since the Khazar kingdom became today's Jews in an event that happened "after" sura 5:64 was written, did the Khazar race of people take the place of the Banu Qaynuqa, Banu Nadir and Banu Qurayza Jewish tribes that Mohammad knew, as the most mischievous people on the earth?
• Are the Palestinians the true biblical Jews that are biblically promised to inherent the land of Palestine as they claim? If so, who were "the Jews" Muhammad wrote about in the Koran that he considered himself not being related to, as the most violent people towards Muslim believers and always causing wars that Allah has to put out?
  

18. Do Jews use human blood from Muslim or Christian boys to make their Matzah bread for the Passover meal?
Follow up questions:

• Do you support the Syrian produced TV series "Al-Shatat" (The Diaspora) that depicts Jewish rabbis cutting a Christian boy's throat for Passover Matzah bread? http://www.pmw.org.il/
• Do you support the Iranian produced TV series titled, "Zahra's Blue Eyes" that depicts Jewish surgeons preparing to remove (steal) eyeballs from a small Palestinian girl for Jewish use? http://memri.org/bin/articles.cgi?Page=archives&Area=sd&ID=SP83304
• Do you support the Egyptian produced TV series "Knight without a Horse" that depicts Jews (Zionists) taking over the world from ancient times that has caused national tragedies and governments to fall? http://www.memritv.org/clip/en/934.htm
• Are the "Protocols of the Elders of Zion" true?
• Why do you think the ones who believe that the "Protocols of the Elders of Zion" are true, also believe that Jews use human blood from Muslim or Christian boys for their Passover matzah bread? Is there a chance that these two beliefs go hand-in-hand from a spiritual standpoint, kind of like Temple-denying and Holocaust-denying go hand-in-hand as well?
• What does such beliefs that are so strong that is causes TV series productions to be made throughout the Islamic world and in some cases aired during Ramadan (Islam's holiest month) say concerning the Islamic world itself?
  

19. Is it inappropriate in your moderate world of Islam, for a middle-aged 49 year-old man to be engaged to a 6 year-old child, and for a 52 year-old man to have sexual relations with a 9 year-old child-bride?
Follow up questions:

• Did Mohammad have sexual relations with 9 year-old Aisha as an excellent example of human behavior that would allow his believers to follow (sura 33:21)?
• Why doesn't sharia law (like what is practiced in Iran today) see any wrong in a 52 year-old (or older) man having sexual relations with a 9 year-old girl?
• Do you think the child moslestors that appear on MSNBC Dateline's 'To Catch a Predator' with Chris Hansen>http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/To_Catch_a_Predator most of whom are many years younger than was Mohammad, seeking children as much as six years older than Aisha was when Mohammad had sexual relations with her, should be prosecuted as sexual criminals?

20. Please explain in your moderate way the difference between Dar Al-Islam (lands that are ruled by Islam, literally "House of Submission") and Dar Al-Harb (lands not controlled by Islam, literally "House of War") and where you read in the Koran that you are relieved from "your duty" as a Muslim (barring illness and physical inability) to fight the infidels "where ever you find them" in accordance with sura 8:39, sura 9:5, and sura 9:29, and as one who "believes" should fight in the way of Allah against the friends of the devil who disbelieve, all in accordance with sura 4:74-76?
Follow up statement:
If you believe as a moderate Muslim in the so-called greater jihad (jihad al-akbar) with the total abandonment of the so-called lesser jihad (jihad al-asyhar) in your life, please explain why you think Mohammad being the excellent example of human behavior according to sura 33:21, used the "lesser jihad" so abundantly throughout his life in his conquest of the entire Arabian Peninsula.

Bonus Question for the Shiite "moderate" Muslim:
When the Twelfth (Hidden) Imam, Muhammad al-Mahdi appears, will he be a proponent of "moderate Islam" that might include Western values such as, freedom of speech, freedom of religion, freedom expression, freedom of the press, or will he set things to be under strict sharia Islamic law world-wide?
Follow up questions:

• Will the al-Mahdi be considered a "moderate" Muslim and denounce Islamic extremism?
  
• If the al-Mahdi will be a proponent of sharia law when he appears, shouldn't all Muslims including so-called moderate Muslims be striving for sharia law now?
