The Muslim Suicide Convert

Both of the suicide bombers who struck in Russia
were Muslim converts. They follow a long string of
Muslim terrorist converts, including the murderers
of British soldier Lee Rigby who were sentenced last
month and Terry Lee Loewen who plotted to car bomb
the Wichita Mid-Continent Airport that same month.
Muslim
converts engage in terrorism at a higher rate than
Muslims. It's gotten so bad that converting to Islam
is almost a form of suicide.
The popular theory is that Muslim terrorist groups
use converts because they blend in better. But in
most Western countries, screening by race is nearly
illegal and in even in targeted countries where it
isn’t, there are usually many members of Muslim
ethnic groups in most major cities.
There are four reasons for the rise of the Muslim
Suicide Convert. Muslim converts are gullible,
fanatical, suicidal and expendable.
Let's start with the last one first. Muslims usually
come from tribal cultures with extended family
groups. Despite its claims of transnationalism and
multiculturalism, Islam is an ethnic religion with
the descendants of Mohammed elevated over everyone
else, the families in the region of his first
conquests elevated over other Arabs, Arabs elevated
over non-Arabs, Asian Muslims over African Muslims
and African Muslims over Western converts to Islam.
A convert to Islam is lowest on the totem pole
because he has no family group. In a tribal society,
not having a family connection makes you an outsider
and expendable. A Muslim who Jihads himself to death
creates a hole in the tribal network of arranged
cousin marriages, illegal business arrangements and
other extended family support structures. A Muslim
convert was never part of the network unless he
married into it. And even then he can easily be
unplugged because he has no common ancestry with
them.
In a Muslim country, he can be killed without having
to pay blood price. In a Western country, he can be
sent off to die without the "tribe" of Pakistanis or
Egyptians who built the mosques and hired the Imams
who converted him and convinced him to kill
non-Muslims being affected by his death.
He is expendable.
Converts are not part of the family networks of the
Muslim settlers in their Western diasporas. That
makes them useful cannon fodder. If they are
captured, the mosque denies all responsibility and
blames the internet even though most mosques and
Muslim student groups host those same speakers who
"radicalize" converts over the internet at their own
facilities and events.
Muslim converts are also suicidal.
The act of conversion is a form of death. It
destroys the entire cultural and faith background of
the individual. It cuts him off from his family, his
people and his way of life. Conversion can be
constructive, but it should never be forgotten that
it is also destructive.
The Muslim convert has been trying to kill himself
all his life to some degree, to destroy the essence
of what he is to overcome that perceived flaw
preventing him from being happy and living a
worthwhile life. Islam is his drug and alcohol
abuse, his meaningless sex and his cult. It is how
he punishes himself hoping to find redemption in
self-destruction and meaning in the sacrifice of the
self to the first utterly devouring and consuming
thing that comes along.
Converts to Islam often discuss feeling empty.
They expect Islam to fill the void within them and
when it does not, they are told that the failure is
theirs.
The Muslim convert finds Islam in a search for
fulfillment and then still feeling unfulfilled,
seeks out its "purer" forms whose commitment to
Jihadist violence is more overt. The violence of
their rhetoric and the force of their commitment
briefly feel like fulfillment, but then
dissatisfaction sets in again. Told to blame himself
for this final failure, the Muslim Suicide Convert
is encouraged to make his final kamikaze run hoping
to find the meaning and fulfillment in the afterlife
that evaded him in this life.
Muslim converts have personal problems that they try
to treat with Islam the way that sufferers from
conventional diseases try to treat their illnesses
with phony cures. Muslim clerics promise that Islam
will solve the personal problems of non-Muslims and
non-Muslim societies, but like so many criminal
gurus, they are peddling phony cures that kill the
patient.
That is one reason why Muslim converts are
fanatical. Another reason is that they have no
baseline. Converts plunge into another religion and
culture as into deep water.
Muslims have learned to make the necessary
compromises with their fanatical religion that make
their lives livable. That is why most of them do not
go out and blow themselves up; instead they
undermine Western societies in slower and steadier
ways through demographics, disinformation and
political influence.
The Muslim Suicide Convert seeks an uncompromising
purity. He rejects the compromises that Muslims have
learned to make over the centuries. Seeking the core
revelation in a religion of death; he finds that
revelation only in death. The truth of Islam is in
its killing fields. It preaches war for power and
paradise. The Muslim convert who searches for its
essence finds a grinning skull in the desert sands
and hurries to emulate its terrible example.
Finally, Muslim converts are gullible. The natives
of every land have games that they play with
tourists, relying on their unfamiliarity with
another culture to mislead them and trick them.
Muslim converts are strangers in a strange land,
slowly learning a foreign way of life and
pathetically eager to be accepted by another
culture. It is all too easy for Muslim clerics to
lead them down the garden path to the suicide
bomber’s paradise by offering and withholding
affection until they are willing to do anything to
belong.
Muslim Suicide Converts are enlisted in a war the
way that men have been enlisted in wars throughout
the ages with appeals to patriotism, strategic
shaming, tales of outrageous atrocities and myths of
incredible heroism. The Muslim clerics, like so many
military recruiters before them, tailor their pitch
to the disposable people who are least likely to
question orders and the least likely to be missed.
Muslim recruiters thrive on campus for the same
reasons as cult recruiters and leftist academics.
The modern university is a good place to find
insecure young people questioning everything that
they believe in and unsure of what to do when they
have destroyed everything they were and found that
their impulse to ridicule and tear down everything
does not fulfill the human need for something to
believe in. It is where young men and women seeking
to find something beyond their limits, experimenting
with and becoming someone they are not and feeling
inward guilt and loss at the abandonment of their
old selves and their old values can be hunted and
trapped.
Into this universe of doubt, the Muslim cleric
intrudes with his false offer of certainty, with the
air of the victim, the badge of the underdog, the
mysticism of the east and the romance of the grass,
that like the terrorist flags that wave among it,
always grows greener on the other side of the world.
Westernized Muslims are urged to recommit to Islam,
to steel themselves for the coming conflict between
the civilizations of the sword and the microchip, to
purge themselves of Western culture, embrace the
black flags and atone for their beers they drank,
the girls they kissed and the songs they sang with
the death screams of sirens and the blood of their
non-Muslim friends and neighbors.
The seduction of the non-Muslim runs more slowly but
surely. The dissatisfied and unhappy, those trained
by a liberal culture contemptuous of its own values
and traditions to instinctively value non-Western
spirituality over their own "materialistic" and
"imperialistic" religions, are lured in.
The children of an intellectual tradition that
taught them to reject absolutes of any kind as the
worst sin of the mind, embrace with fervor an
absolutism that calls for their deaths and the death
of the world. They kill and die, destroying their
own bodies poisoned by their infidel heritage and in
dying, inflict as much harm as they can on the
infidel society whose destruction their cult seeks.
The Muslim Suicide Convert embraces his role as the
vanguard of a spiritual world order, destroying the
oppressive materialism of the world to make way for
the superior rule of Islamic law, believing that he
can only overcome his own materialism by destroying
his material substance and the material substance of
the society that nurtured someone as unworthy as him
in the ultimate act of submission that throbs with
the death drive of the Islamic religion of
submission
Only by destroying his physical being and the
physical being of his society, does the Muslim
Suicide Convert expect to achieve the transcendence
of his physicality and the fulfillment that the
gross substance of his flesh barred him from. His
suicide is also a national suicide. It is the
extension of the national suicide, the act of
profound and terrible self-destruction that brought
the Muslim preachers who worked on his mind into the
country and into its universities.
The Muslim Suicide Convert, like his Islam-friendly
liberal society, kills himself and his society to
atone for its materialism, reaching instead for a
material paradise of virgin demon women, young boys
serving wine and rivers and hills made of the
bounties of seventh century Arabia, drowning his
guilt in death and his hope for eternity in the
innocent blood of his victims.
The crime he commits is not his alone. It is not
only that of the Imams who turned him, who preached
at him and poisoned his heart. It is not only that
of the Saudis and Qataris who funded them, the
Muslim diasporas who try to have it both ways
balancing Western materialism and Muslim terrorism
in ways that profit them most and the scowling men
who ushered in his final stage of life in some dirty
apartment in a failed industrial town or basement
mosque where sellers of cheap food gather on their
rugs and gossip about their cousins and their
governments.
It is also that of the political leaders who
welcomed in the Islamic cultural engine of
destruction that has been assembled and turned on
its cities, sputtering to life with clouds of black
smoke, belching out mosques and mega-mosques run by
the grimmest men of the theological academies of
Mohammedanism, religious feuds and warriors, bombs
and beheadings, restarting the process that filled
the desert with armed riders and corpses.
No suicide bomber acts alone. It is not only his
hand or the hand of the remote handler or that of
the distant oil-soaked states, Sunni and Shiite,
glaring across the Persian Gulf at each other.
It is the hand of his own leaders, his politicians,
his teachers, his clergy and his entertainers who do
this terrible thing.
It is everyone who advocates for Islamic immigration
while covering up its crimes, who calls for more
tolerance and more mosques and more Islamic law and
then rushes to the scene of the bombing before the
blood and tissue of the innocent victims of Islamic
immigration have hardly been scraped off the
sidewalk to announce that Islam had nothing to do
with this act of Islamic terror.
They have made the process that led to this terrible
moment possible and it is they who flock to the
scene of their own crime to cover up the innocent
blood spilled by their own immigration policies.
The Muslim Suicide Convert is the spawn of a Muslim
Suicide Convert leadership and a Muslim Convert
society. The individual convert sees more clearly
than they do the consequences of their actions and
the darkness that waits on the other side of the
door that they have opened. He knows that death is
on the other side of it and he walks toward it into
the act of destruction and self-destruction that his
political and cultural leaders have made possible
while averting their eyes at the moment that the
ticking bomb that they have allowed to be imported
and assembled in their country explodes.
