Saudi Crown prince sent hit squad to Canada to kill former spy, lawsuit claimsThe Canadian Press · Posted: Aug 06, 2020

"“She was charged, tried and convicted using counter-terrorism laws,” her sister, Lina al-Hathloul, said in a statement. “My sister is not a terrorist, she is an activist. To be sentenced for her activism for the very reforms that MBS and the Saudi kingdom so proudly tout is the ultimate hypocrisy,” she said, referring to the Saudi crown prince by his initials.

Sabq, which said its reporter was allowed inside the courtroom, reported that the judge said the defendant had confessed to committing the crimes and that her confessions were made voluntarily and without coercion. The report said the verdict was issued in the presence of the prosecutor, the defendant, a representative from the government’s Human Rights Commission and a handful of select local media representatives.

The 31-year-old Saudi activist has long been defiantly outspoken about human rights in Saudi Arabia, even from behind bars. She launched hunger strikes to protest her imprisonment and joined other female activists in telling Saudi judges that she was tortured and sexually assaulted by masked men during interrogations. The women say they were caned, electrocuted and waterboarded. Some say they were forcibly groped and threatened with rape.

Al-Hathloul rejected an offer to rescind her allegations of torture in exchange for early release, according to her family. A court recently dismissed her allegations, citing a lack of evidence."

If the internalized ethical, moral and value culture ideology precepts of your codex and exemplar template preclude your biology/Culture ideology from ever realising a secure flourishing life without the systemic threat of terror-genocide which determines the 'moderate' 'good' integral to the production of terror-genocide against Other inclusive of Muslim adherents, should not a rational person determine such a ratonale system must be removed from human political/social space not only for Others sake but also Muslim adherents?

"The official who spoke on Saturday said one of the three students who attended the dinner party hosted by the attacker recorded video outside the classroom building while the shooting was taking place. Two other Saudi students watched from a car, the official said.

Ten Saudi students were being held on the base while several others were unaccounted for, said the official, who spoke on condition of anonymity after being briefed by federal authorities."

Wishing, hoping, believing something on the part of the perpetrator biology/culture ideology or its victims, in complete disregard of what the rationale system always delivers despite the best of intentions by one or more of both elites or adherent mass will not change inherent emergent roles-scripts-behaviors if the codex categorization of Other remains sacred, unchanged. Murder by the Muslim elite and the Muslim adherent mass will continue even as the Muslim codex dictates against their own as each, in turn, including Other will be defined as "kuffar (infidels)".


“Our God commands us to be violent towards the kuffar (infidels). Who are we? The ummah [nation] of Mohammed. So [God] also commands us to be merciful to each other. So we will be merciful to each other. And we will be violent to the kuffar. Like in Syria.”

"Yvo de Boer, former head of UN Climate Change between 2006 and 2010, vented his outrage on Twitter that “a totalitarian, murderous, sexist regime can exploit consensus rules to block the consideration of science”."

In life it can only be a matter of relativity when determining threat-if the Say in our codex regards the inevitable derogatory construct of Other out-groups actually systemically informs a Do of violence-terror and social/political tyranny consistency, intensity significantly differing from Other Biology/Culture ideologies. If it is, is it worthy of our continuing adherence?

“Our own view is that this variation suggests that Islam is not a sufficient, condition for violence, but it does not refute the claim that, under a certain configuration of enabling conditions, Islam is more likely to lead to violence than are other religions.” (Anastasopoulos, Masoud, & Zeckhauser, 2016)
Anastasopoulos, L. J., Masoud, T., & Zeckhauser, R. (2016). Thou Shalt Kill? Measuring Political Violence in the Bible and the Quran.

Please, is not just one child’s life worth doing so? Just one?

How many times do we need to see certain Muslims push for rationalism only to have Muslims either utilise the exact same behavior or terror towards Other or simply have to flee into the desert to preserve his life? The Golden Age, the so called lulls in terror-genocide against Other, does not change the outcome for Other.

 
“Al-Mamun was driven in his search for wisdom by Greek rationalism, a school of thought that dealt with logic and observation, which he believed held the key to unlock most branches of knowledge— including religious faith. Al-Mamun’s faith in rationalism brought him into direct conflict with many powerful, religiously conservative scholars.
“Al-Mamun and his emergent Sunni Islam branch of the religion in Baghdad had already displaced its predecessors, the Sunni Umayyad branch in Damascus. En route to developing the Baghdad-based Abbasid caliphate into the world’s largest empire of the time, al-Mamun’s ideas of rational philosophy and scientific enquiry vis-à-vis religion clashed with the traditionalists’ view that revelation alone was sufficient for the faith.
Al-Mamun argued in favor of a more rationalist approach and more original scholarship, and he attempted to undermine the authority of the traditionalist religious scholars by instituting an inquisition. Anyone who refused to accept the caliph’s rationalist and freethinking approach was subject to imprisonment, flogging, and even death by beheading—in a fashion not unlike the Spanish Inquisition of the late 15th century for its reach and terror.”(Gearon 2017)

Rational. Irrational what does it matter the outcome for Other is the same, it is simply everyone inclusive of Muslims themselves in time become victims of the Muslim codex system. Such a rationale system worthy of adherence?



“ and there are somewhere people say things like around here like we don’t get mad we just get even. There are organizations where that’s the culture and that’s the way they think.
Deeper than all of that, deeper than that, is the family structure. We all learned early in life about conflict and how to handle conflict and what it means and what happens if we handle it in a given way. We learned it in our families starting when we were very young as toddlers. That age that parents tend to call the terrible twos. There was that first moment when you as the little toddler tried out saying no for yourself. You’d heard your mom and dad say it, and at one point you looked up and tried it and you looked up to one of those people and you said no. How that person reacted was probably your first lesson in managing conflict, and you’ve been learning it ever since.
So we learned in the family. And what we did learn, the lessons we learned, led to behaviors that we adopted and we got habitual at it and we got skilled at it. So our early learning drives an awful lot of the way we deal with conflict. Then we go choose organizations where we can apply those skills; it all fits within the culture, so we’re not people who come to conflict like it’s a new subject. We’re people who come to the subject of conflict management having learned it early; we’ve got built-in ideas …”(Dues 2014)

What has changed-not the method nor the justification this is simply what the Muslim system has emerging systemically from its good development floors parents, family, community, and institutions. The Good in any biology/culture ideology behavioral variance exists, we all know it from personal experience, without them, the interface of a dissimulation shield, Other refrains from reacting.


“Ms Mansfield's joint statement to the UN had expressed “deep concern” over human rights abuses in Saudi Arabia.

“We are concerned at reports of torture, arbitrary detention, enforced disappearances, unfair trials, and harassment of individuals engaged in promoting and defending human rights, their families and colleagues,” she said at the UN Human Rights Council this week. 

“Human rights defenders, women’s rights activists, journalists and dissidents remain in detention, or under threat.”
[…]
“We call for an end to impunity for torture and extrajudicial killings; and we appeal to Saudi Arabia to end its use of the death penalty,” she said.”


Alas the Muslim Good are the very creators of the terror-genocide  - for the terror-genocide walks straight from Muslims very floors as they claim persistently 'Good' status - in social-psychology terms, it is an impossible state to claim for it determines those delivering terror-genocide, emerging from within Muslim Good families, communities, and institutions codex-belief, ethic, value, exemplar-template system boundaries, did not emerge from the Muslim Good development space at all. They walk your Good floors they are you you are them. 

“It’s how we decide, not what we decide, that marks rationality in the economist’s view of the world. This can go to extraordinary extremes: If you were a true believer, as a suicide bomber, and you thought that God’s will really required that you commit this unspeakable act, if you thought it would really bring immeasurable and eternal rewards in paradise, it could be “rational” in the economist’s use of the term to push that detonator button. To me, as a human, that would be tragically mistaken, unquestionably immoral and unspeakably evil; but it would not, in formal terms, be irrational.”

In principle, then, making rational decisions is easy; just follow four simple steps:
1. First, clarify the objective or the goal.
2. The second stage in making a rational decision, once you know the objective, is to identify all possible alternative paths to help you get there. If you don’t know your options, it’s hard to systematically choose the best one.
3. The third step is then to evaluate carefully the payoffs from each of those alternatives. Put some value on alternatives.
4. Finally, you have to actually, of course, select the best one and implement your decision. To determine the best course and then willfully choose another one would be to act irrationally" (Bartlett 2010)

Muslims have you not consumed enough human flesh, misery and grief and the world’s scarce resource better spent on flourishing lives than wasted on erecting ever-increasing security enclaves which only ever delay the inevitable Muslims always have informed against themselves as well as Other.

"themselves" as each Muslim is determined "
kafir [non-believer]" by other Muslims even in their own Muslim major sectarian grouping, and simultaneously a True Muslim Believer regards self, and possibly viewed as such by other Muslims they perceive to be in their same Muslim sectarian cluster, or as close enough to it so as not to be a threat.

The reality is a Muslim can never be sure that their own perception of their self-derived view they are an "ordinary" True Muslim, and True Muslims 
'are just ordinary Muslims, and the ordinary Muslims are good people,' will be a guarantee of their or theirs safety. Because the Moral Shift capacity enabled by the Muslim-Islam construct of "kafir [non-believer]" and the inherent violent recommended methodology for dealing with "kafirs [non-believers]" determines Muslim safety fluid-unstable, and it is meant to be such-as it is a jackboot method of control utilised by very violent Biology/Culture Ideologies.

“Top Saudi officials considered using private companies to assassinate political enemies at a time when Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman was consolidating power.”
Saudis Close to Crown Prince Discussed Killing Other Enemies a Year Before Khashoggi’s Death, NYT, By Mark Mazzetti, Ronen Bergman and David D. Kirkpatrick, Nov. 11, 2018
 

“The C.I.A. made the assessment based on the crown prince’s control of Saudi Arabia, which is such that the killing would not have taken place without his approval, and has buttressed its conclusion with two sets of crucial communications: intercepts of the crown prince’s calls in the days before the killing, and calls by the kill team to a senior aide to the crown prince.

The C.I.A. has believed for weeks that Prince Mohammed was culpable in Mr. Khashoggi’s killing but had been hesitant to definitively conclude that he directly ordered it. The agency has passed that assessment on to lawmakers and Trump administration officials.

The change in C.I.A. thinking came as new information emerged, officials said. The evidence included an intercept showing a member of the kill team calling an aide to Prince Mohammed and saying “tell your boss” that the mission was accomplished. Officials cautioned, however, that the new information is not direct evidence linking Prince Mohammed to the assassination, which was carried out in the Saudi Consulate in Istanbul.”

Quran: Surah 8 Al-Anfal - The Spoils of War
12 "Remember thy Lord inspired the angels (with the message): 'I am with you: give firmness to the believers: I will instil terror into the hearts of the unbelievers: smite ye above their necks and smite all their fingertips off them. '

38 "Say to the unbelievers, if (now) they desist (from unbelief), there passed would be forgiven them; but if they persist, the punishment of those before him is already (a matter of warning for them)."

55 "For the worst of beasts in the sight of Allah of those who reject him: they will not believe."

Muslims ethical-moral-value-beliefs-motivation social/political method codex(Quran)-template(Hadith) have been proven within the Modern not Medieval time and space to enable the emergence into reality of vivisection, trucks, cars,...throwing babies, children, women and men into the air to their deaths, dropping humans from buildings, burning humans alive in cages, or in backyards, or in streets, or simply prevent them from exiting burning buildings, lining humans up in pits to be shot down, or in dormitories to be shot down, or in streets to be shot down, removing heads with swords, exploding devices in public and private space; inclusive of political tyranny, oppression and control of women including their sexuality informing ultimate control and degradation female genital mutilation.

Muslims as you know, Yemen is only one time and space of Muslim inter-Religion-Faith war/civil war combined, due to the Muslim-Islam construct of Other-out-groups; pretenders, hypocrites, 
kafirs [non-believers] "the worst of beasts", this is the Muslim-Islam Muhammad legacy to humanity, with blood-horror on Muhammad's hands and cause for infamy blamed on the victim, not the Muhammad-Muslim person who carries out the horrific acts against humanity, templated again and again throughout history. Defect.

“In 2015, the prince sent Saudi warplanes to bomb Houthi rebels who had seized control of northwestern Yemen and whom he saw as a proxy of Saudi Arabia's regional rival, Iran.

 Originally a movement of Shiite guerrillas from the mountainous northwest, the Houthis rose to power in the turmoil that followed the Arab Spring in 2011. After capturing the capital, Sanaa, in 2014, they soon controlled Yemen's three largest cities. Iran aided their advance with supplies of military equipment, including missiles.

 Since 2015, Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates have led a military coalition in a war aimed at ousting the Houthis and restoring an internationally recognised government. But early promises of a swift victory have given way to a bloody stalemate, while the war has inflicted a catastrophic toll on Yemenis that includes widespread hunger and the worst cholera epidemic in history.”

Saudi Arabia arrests key activist in human rights crackdown, The Guardian, Patrick Wintour Diplomatic editor, 25 May 2018

“SAUDI ARABIA’S glossy blueprint for modernization, Vision 2030, pledges that the regime will “listen to citizens’ views, and to hear all insights and perspectives,” and wants “to give everyone the opportunity to have their say.”

The truth is not so pretty. Speaking out in Saudi Arabia can lead to death by beheading.

Case in point: Israa al-Ghomgham, a 29-year-old Shiite rights activist who was arrested, along with her husband, Moussa al-Hashem, in December 2015 and has been in pretrial detention ever since without legal representation. She had been a leader of anti-government protests in restive Qatif in eastern Saudi Arabia since the Arab Spring of 2011, calling for an end to discrimination against Shiites and for the release of political prisoners. Saudi Arabia is majority Sunni Muslim, as is the monarchy.

The kingdom has been engaged in a sustained crackdown on dissent and protest. Saudi authorities imprisoned blogger Raif Badawi for suggesting the kingdom needed moderation and his sister Samar Badawi for advocating on behalf of human rights. Was their advocacy really that dangerous? Vision 2030, the blueprint of Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman, pledges that the “values of moderation, tolerance” will be “the bedrock of our success.” The document says Saudi Arabia’s principles include “being conscientious of human rights.” Perhaps the king and crown prince ought to read their own brochures and take them to heart. As it is, they behave as despots from a darker era."

Saudi Arabia’s barbaric price for protest, Washington Post, By Editorial Board, August 25, 2018



Another worthless David Kilcullen Muslim cultural dissimulating "extremely important step", along with Kilcullen's determination one phrase contained in Surah al-Baqarah: 256 determines Islam informs no compulsion despite the fact the statement is qualified immediately by the rest of the sentence and what exists clearly elsewhere. David Kilcullen needs to understand the damage he is doing, either for a lack of research, or simply such gets in the way of a false paradigm that is acclaimed by the 'right' hierarchy or peer group. It's the 'Not to be asked question.' which gives clarity and the most likelihood of stopping fellow citizens being run down in their streets, shot in the back of the head,.......

Quran: Surah 9 At-Tawbah The Repentance
1. "A (declaration) of immunity from Allah and his messenger, to those of the Pagans with whom ye have contracted mutual alliances 


2. Go ye, then, for four months, backwards and forwards, (as ye will), throughout the land, but know ye that ye cannot frustrate Allah (by your falsehood), but that Allah will cover with shame those who reject Him.


3. And an announcement from Allah and his Messenger, to the people (assembled) on the day of the Great Pilgrimage – that Allah and His Messenger dissolve (treaty) obligations with the Pagans. If then ye repent, it were best for you; but if ye turn away, know ye that ye cannot frustrate Allah. And proclaim a grievous penalty to those who reject Faith.


4. But the treaties are not dissolved with those pagans with whom ye had entered into alliance and who have not subsequently failed you in aught, nor aided anyone against you. So fulfill your engagements with them to the end of their term: for Allah love of the righteous.


5. But when the forbidden months are past, then fight and slay the Pagans wherever you find them, and seize them, beleaguer them, and lie in wait for them in every stratagem (of war). But if they repent, and establish regular prayers and practice regular charity, then open the way for them: for Allah is oft Forgiving, Most Merciful."


etc.....

The Surah al-Baqarah: 256 no compulsion phrase is simply a restatement of an already determined Quran construct it is God-Allah who determines who is a Muslim or not, and prior and following determines Other and apostates are destined for grievous harm and severest penalty, even determining it is a test of faith to visit violence against Other later in the Quran text, all to simply keep the Islam Islamist Dichotomy Paradigm churning out victims and securing the Security Complex’s future into the next century. Islam-Muslim-Quran 'No Compulsion' as well as the well worn 'Innocents' are so circumscribed to determine them meaningless under a Western Liberty, Equality, Fraternity; therefore Muslim terror-genocide it is not as Kilcullen reminds us "rocket science". 



What is the use of "No Compulsion" when the very recommended methods of elimination-subjugation which surround it mean compulsion is the result.

Kilcullen's so called "unanimous agreement" of Muslim elites such as those Muslims participating in the Jordan 2005/2006 Ammam Three Points Declaration, to supposedly 'outlaw' Muslim terror, have terror and genocide simultaneously and subsequently walking from the signatories Muslim cultural floors into geographic space surrounding and within the very Jordanian space the Three Points Declaration was signed, which means Kilcullen has again skimmed the surface reading into pure albeit heartfelt belief contained within King Abdullah II bin Al-Hussein of Jordan 2005/2006 Ammam Message “True Islam forbids wanton aggression and terrorism” despite the fact this is recommended in the Quran as a political weapon by Muhammad himself to make clear to not only those present, but stipulates the need to perpetrate extreme violence as a message for those yet to be confronted with Muslims as to what happens to those who reject Islam. Have Muslims and Other not seen enough of their own broken in the streets across time to know with relative certainty a cultural ideology script must exist for systemic Muslim terror-genocide behavior across time and space to exist? Not enough for you, then today and tomorrows?

Not only does the Quran stand, as well as the behavior it systemically motivates across generations, as a contradiction to the King Abdullah II bin Al-Hussein of Jordan 2005/2006 Ammam Message, the very three-point Jordan 2005/2006 Ammam communique signed by 552 Muslims from 84 countries contains no such declaration, “True Islam forbids wanton aggression and terrorism”, nothing at all to support the existence of a Muslim elite determination of “freedom of religion, peace, justice and good-will to non-Muslims.” also contained within King Abdullah II bin Al-Hussein of Jordan 2005/2006 Ammam Message.


The three-point Jordan 2005/2006 Ammam communique signed by 552 Muslims from 84 countries was all about Muslims, defining what a Muslim is and is not, attempting to prevent Muslim intersectoral conflict, whilst within the very nature of the communique in its attempt to define the True Muslim determined intersectoral conflict “wanton aggression and terrorism” would continue for at the end of point 1 of the communique an apostate is a person who “does not deny any necessarily self-evident tenet of religion” which is the very reason Muslim intersectoral war continues as each Muslim belief system determines the other Muslim groups as Not-True Muslims "kafir [non-believer]" deniers of “self-evident tenet(s) of religion”.


Clearly these gatherings of so called Muslim elites do not represent the "universal" as claimed as the broken bodies and lives clearly attest of both Muslims and Other, along with the fact claiming real or true Muslims are not terrorists as the Muslims Kilcullen speaks to, have other Muslims Kilcullen has not spoken to, or ignores clearly claiming-representing the reverse. 

Worse the Muslim elite meeting, Kilcullen utilises to provide evidence of the Muslim determination to prevent terror in its final communique had nothing to say about stopping terror in fact left that door open for the declaration of a Fatwa based upon the contents of the Qur'an and the Sunnah/Hadith which are the actual codex template justification and authority motivation drivers of “wanton aggression and terrorism”. Kilcullen's foundation for not holding the Islam-Muslim cultural ideology whole to account is in shreds, Kilcullen has lost the golden thread and is wandering about hearing applause from those following in admiration of his confident stride not quite muffling the screams of the victims who meanwhile continue to be sacrificed year after year to the unslain beast.

I mean I can understand policy error that is incredibly, incredibly painful and kills a lot of people out of the mistake if they made that with noble hearts. That was when Eisenhower and Kennedy were trying to figure things out. And you read that McNamara knew by ‘65, it was three years before I was there that the war was unwinnable. That’s what makes me mad. Making a mistake people can do that but covering up mistakes then you’re killing people for your own ego. And that makes me mad.” Karl Marlantes, Marine

“Rolling thunder was the dumbest campaign ever devised by a human being. The normal human thing to do is to think that your enemy thinks like you. There is the old story, apocryphal, then when McNamara wants to know what Ho Chi Minh is thinking he interviews himself. What the problem then becomes that you keep trying to send messages that are rational based upon your judgement of rationality but have nothing to do with the definition of rationality on the other side. So what is irrational to us is totally rational to the other side.

Erdogan The Erdogan Experiment, NYT, By DEBORAH SONTAG, MAY 11, 2003

"The mosques are our barracks, the domes our helmets, the minarets our bayonets, and the believers our soldiers." Erdogan, December 1997

Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan understands the truth Islam is Islam, there is no 'moderate' Islam and claiming it is so, or one can move Islam to 'moderation', 'a person (or persons) voicing this concept thinks it (Islam) belongs to him (them)', "No, it does not belong to you,” as the effect of the 2005/2006 Ammam Message clearly provides ample proof.

Erdoğan also understands 'moderate' Islam is a Western symbolic invention, a reality "falsely imagined" for political-cognitive reasons to justify the retention of failed constructs such as Freedom of Religion delivering broken bodies and lives increasingly into Western streets, along with the justification for an ever-expanding Security Complex whose role of managing Muslim cultures terror-genocide into humanities streets will move increasingly to managing-silencing 'blasphemous' objections for the need for the Security Complex to exist and expand exponentially with its failure to protect due to a lie the Islam-Muslim(moderate-spiritual) Islamist(extremist-religion) Dichotomy Paradigm.

Politically Erdoğan played the West particularly the European Union, NATO, and the Turkish constituency for fools with the usual assurances before coming to power enunciating the Western definition of 'moderation' back to them. As in Iran, as in Egypt, as in Turkey, as in Malaysia... this dissimulation is on-the-historic-record Muslim-Islam is as with any culture with significant ethic-value-belief social/political difference worldview aspirations than Other cultures in the same space which cultures utilise when they cannot immediately dominate, exclude, subjugate, delete.

Candidates are aligning with fundamentalist parties in order to win over conservative voters.

Increased influence of radical groups could hit democratic freedoms and polarize society.”


The Chinese Communist Party is a perfect exemplar, as Western Democracies allowed their economic base to be destroyed-shifted, and therefore their capacity to defend themselves, into the Chinese Communist space under the dissimulating promise of Chinese Communist reform they have used since their beginning, is a perfect example of how Western Elites are pathological altruists, deluded dangerous fools albeit with Love in their hearts, gold gleaming in their eyes, claiming the moral high ground as they lead their cultures into the dust of history.  

"Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan has criticized the recent vow by Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman to make Saudi Arabia a bastion of “moderate Islam”

“Islam cannot be either ‘moderate’ or ‘not moderate.’ Islam can only be one thing,” Erdoğan said in a speech at a program hosted in Ankara by the Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC) on women’s entrepreneurship on Nov. 9.

“Recently the concept of ‘moderate Islam’ has received attention. But the patent of this concept originated in the West,” Erdoğan said.

“Perhaps the person voicing this concept thinks it belongs to him. No, it does not belong to you,” he added, noting that he was “asked about ‘moderate Islam’ at meetings in the European Parliament many years ago.”

One person, One Saudi crown prince will achieve what 552 religious and political elite signatories of the 2005/2006 Ammam Message, from 84 countries including the Saudi King, could not achieve when King of Jordan Abdullah II bin Al-Hussein proclaimed "True Islam forbids wanton aggression and terrorism, enjoins freedom of religion, peace, justice and good-will to non-Muslims, it is also a message of good news, friendship and hope to the whole world.".

David Kilcullen is right though in the complete reverse he intends regards the 552 Muslim religious and political elite signatories of the 2005/2006 Ammam Message, from 84 countries in that the 2005/2006 Ammam Message is an "extremely important step" given the process provides actual evidence as to the ineffectual nature of any claim made by self-proclaimed Muslim elite religious and political  "True Islam forbids wanton aggression and terrorism, enjoins freedom of religion, peace, justice and good-will to non-Muslims, it is also a message of good news, friendship and hope to the whole world." for clearly what preceded the statement back to the 7th century and followed the announcement makes a complete mockery of such claims being existent in reality.

One can understand Kilcullen’s mistaken view of the importance of the Muslim 2005/2006 Ammam Message and also at the same time its complete lack of effect, given the Christian Treaty of Westphalia which had similar aims, the ending of a violent Christian sectarian war, where the same gathering of large numbers of political/social elites secular and religious came together to espouse peace and sign off on a treaty, a message if you like, where another’s Christian religion were to be tolerated (for this was a Christian peace after all) albeit initially, in most cases religious freedom was circumscribed in ones defined sovereign State; where the template for future conflict resolution, forgetting of past demeanors-sunk costs, endeavor to resolve the conflict by the rule of law, peaceful means, and if not after three years subsequently by States coming together to advance the cause of the injured State and force the oppressor to align to the Westphalia treaty. 

Bit like what was hoped for with the League of Nations and United Nations – trouble is there is no emperor to be the enforcer of the public peace as there was for the Westphalia treaty. This obviously did not last long in terms of each State sticking to the Westphalia script but actual Christian agreement could be arrived at which could never be with the same meeting of the Muslim social/political elite. I do hope Kilcullen in no way saw some parallel between the authority-force-motivation of the 2005/2006 Ammam Message and the treaty of Westphalia and understands why his logic is flawed though Kilcullen’s misdiagnosing history particularly Roman history would indicate an error of such sort may have occurred. For one must base ones view of the efficacy of a political/social event on a similar event prior. Trouble is such false hope underwrites the deaths of thousands as policy predicated on such claims by such experts presents a hope for the impossible, terror-genocide continues and the cost in lives and wasted resources increase.

The 2005/2006 Ammam Message complete lack of effect also determines the Islamic/Muslim theology must contain justification and authority for terror, there is no misunderstanding, we see Muslim terror before us, it is not imagined individuals claiming to be of a culture utilising terror a political act to advance and protect as they themselve claim the culture they adhere to, which is the Muslim culture must therefore provide the terrorists with the worldview cause and motivation to carry out acts of violence otherwise, Muslim terrorism would not occur.

Note: There can be no return to "moderate" Islam as it has never existed, as it cannot be defined in the first instance and more pertinently whatever Muslim behaviour exists the veracity is measured against the ethical constructs, as they always have integral to and subject to Muhammad's Quran and Muhammad's life exemplar template.

The Islam rationale model has never been "open to all religions" so it cannot be claimed Islam is returning to such an ethical construct as it never existed, nor can Islam be "open to all religions" without removing more than half the discourse in the Quran, determine Mohammed deviant, and then have the whole of the Muslim culture accept the Quran deletions and admonishment of the Prophet.

There tends to always be ethical-belief clusters in any ideological construct but importantly adherents are still all constrained within the non-contradictory precepts set within the sacred text and messianic exemplar behaviour, otherwise an adherent can no longer claim to be a member of the culture, nor be seen as such. The question is does your culture still inform terror-genocide walking from your social/political floors if so claims 'I am a moderate.' 'I love my country.', 'I am not a terrorist.'  or 'They are....' are meaningless as your-their networked participation provides support for the continued delivery of terror-genocide even across generations.

"The father of an Egyptian suspected of being the machete attacker in Paris's Louvre museum said Saturday his son showed no sign of radicalisation and he believed in his innocence.

Reda El-Hamahmy, a retired police general, told AFP he had been constantly in touch with his son who worked as a sales manager in Sharjah, in the United Arab Emirates.
"I can show you pictures where he has no beard," he said, referring to beards grown by some devout Muslims.

"Our household is a moderate household and mind our own business," he added."

No better example of the worthlessness, 'importance' of Islam/Muslim claims to moderation and their ineffectual affect upon the Islam/Muslim culture is the “the Ammam Message initiative of King Abdullah II of Jordan” “bringing together (Muslim) religious and political leaders from across the Islamic world” condemning the Islam/Muslim method of terror-genocide against fellow Muslims with Jordan's King determining true Islam "enjoins freedom of religion, peace, justice and good-will to non-Muslims".

What intensified across the Jordan border in Iraq, Syria-Middle East in Africa, Asia and increasingly appeared in Western streets terror-against Other inclusive of Muslim apostates, not only based upon a Sunni takfiri ideology claimed by the Jordan Ammam Message group assembled to be ‘heretical’-not true to the Islam/Muslim religion, but also Shiite terror-genocide against Other.

“..the Ammam Message initiative of King Abdullah II of Jordan is an extremely important step, bringing together religious and political leaders from across the Islamic world to condemn AQ's heretical takfiri ideology. .. they are much more powerful and credible than Western initiatives.."
'The Accidental Guerrilla' - David Kilcullen, 2009

"True Islam forbids wanton aggression and terrorism, enjoins freedom of religion, peace, justice and good-will to non-Muslims, it is also a message of good news, friendship and hope to the whole world." King Abdullah II bin Al-Hussein of Jordan 2005/2006 Ammam Message.

The signed off Amman message three points, responses to three questions set by the Jordan King (1) Who is a Muslim? (2) Is it permissible to declare someone an apostate (takfir)? (3) Who has the right to undertake issuing fatwas (legal rulings)? had nothing at all to say about Other cultures, the reflections on the success of the Amman process did not end with  "freedom of religion, peace, justice and good-will to non-Muslims" it ended with:

"We call for casting aside disagreement between Muslims and unifying their words and stances; reaffirming their mutual respect for each other; fortifying mutual affinity among their peoples and states; strengthening the ties of brotherhood which unite them in the mutual love of Allah. And we call upon Muslims to not permit discord and outside interference between them. Allah, Glorified be He, says "The believers are naught else than brothers. Therefore make peace between your brethren and fear Allah that perhaps ye may obtain mercy. (Al-Hujurat, 49:10). Praise be to Allah Alone.: 2005/2006 Ammam Message

Calls for a Islam/Muslim moderate whole of culture without violence and subjugation, by certain Muslim leaders, are not new they have been espoused at various times throughout Islam/Muslim history, the point is do such calls to be 'moderate' or claims Islam/Muslim culture was one of peace and justice make any difference-the answer is in humanities streets.

Such 'moderate' hopes of individual Muslims and of Other cultures although well meant and even believed simply do not align with the actual precepts contained within Muhammad's Quran and Muhammad's life exemplar template, therefore the terror-genocide continues with only lulls in proceedings - Other whatever is stated by Muslim elite or ordinary adherents, dependent on social and political context i.e. whether it is possible to do away with Other immediately or not, swiftly or gradually disappear as they are increasingly subject to violence to force Other to be subject to Muslim precepts - this is reality this is what is occurring as it always has right now even in our own Western Streets. Of course we have a great need to believe surely this time but it is not going to happen for the exact same reason it has not happened in the past despite stated aims, claims of select Muslim elites - what always happens around them or even through them?

"The existence of the Jewish colony in China was discovered by the Jesuit Fathers in the seventeenth century, if not earlier; Kaifung, some four hundred and fifty-miles south-west of Peking, being the headquarters of the colony. When Martin visited the place in 1866, he found the synagogue, supposed to be built in 1164, in ruins; the Jews had dispersed, some having become Mohammedans, and not one being able to speak a word of Hebrew.

“. children are sharp eyed, lacking in empathy, and willing to commit atrocities their elders would shrink from.”

We saw how the 'good' of the Nazi ideology convinced us through their soft power persuasion, the Nazi were only "looking for peace and see friendship with Britain as a basis for peace not only for themselves but for everyone else” despite being fully aware of the Nazi violence-terror of the Nazi 'few' resulting in the "disappeared" and 'communities that once numbered in the thousands' reduced to fearful remnants, yet we see the exact same Muslim ideological erroneous victimisation complex, predicated, as with the Nazi, on Others inevitable negative reaction to being terrorized-subjugated, resulting in the exact same "disappeared" of Other, with Muslims utilizing the exact same soft power persuasion, Muslims are only looking for “peace, justice and good-will to non-Muslims … friendship and hope to the whole world.”, utilizing in complete contradiction in the same time frame the exact same method as the Nazi, terror-genocide, and yet we do not act against the Muslim cultural whole, as we would and understand why we have to against the Nazi cultural whole. 

“...the Germans that great unified people are looking for peace and see friendship with Britain as a basis for peace not only for themselves but for everyone else”. ...In fact, if the extremist’s elements had prevailed. I have not the least doubt that disruption would have been more drastic and that we should have real reason by now to fear German aggression from both a military as well as political point of view.”  Norman Hillson “I speak of Germany”, London 1937

The like minded: How Nazis courted the Islamic world during WWII, DW, Nastassja Shtrauchler, 13.11.2017. The important point is the Nazi succeeded. The cultural ethics, method regards Other cultures drive both behaviors-actions, still do and will.

David Kilcullen, as others, believe erroneously cultures are individuals be they in the elite or otherwise and as individuals they can have sway over the 'morality equilibrium' of their culture, this only occurs if the internal cultural ethics-morals-beliefs social/political method align with these individuals views otherwise such influence is negated by cultural group dynamics which could care less as we know even in Western streets for the individual, elite or otherwise, moving against a cultures normative rationale model-cultures survival inclusive of its institutions is paramount.





“Pakistani Islamists who clashed with police at the weekend have called off national protests after the resignation of Law Minister Zahid Hamid.

"Apparently, considered to be more tolerant and accommodative of other faiths and sects, the Barelvi groups in Pakistan have been asserting themselves politically since the 2016 hanging of Mumtaz Qadri, who was the self-righteous assassin of former Punjab governor Salman Taseeer.


The recent wave of protests by the Barelvi extremist group, Tehreek-e-Labbaik Ya Rasool Allah (TLYR), was triggered by government's decision to amend country’s electoral laws to abolish the separate electoral rule for the heterodox Ahmadiyya community. The protests in the capital Islamabad ended after an agreement was struck between the government and TLYR, which resulted in the resignation of law minister Zaid Hmaid. This development marks a new low in Pakistan’s history of appeasing its religious-political groups. The state and society have paid an astronomical price in blood and treasure for this appeasement. Yet, the folly continues."

What is 'moderate' is therefore a subjective perspective of Muslims behaviour as it relates to Other cultures behaviour, from an individual perspective from within and without the Muslim culture which can be and are quite different. Also what a Muslim cluster is "considered to be more tolerant and accommodative of other faiths and sects" today will not be tomorrow, in fact 'extremist', the Muslim cultural moral shifting schema, therefore, contains, as history clearly provides evidence, the justification authorisation to shift from a friendly chat and a cup of tea, BBQ to terror not only at the individual level, but at the Muslim cluster level. 

And more pertinently such Barelvi groups extremist acts are taken seriously in cultural negotiations and therefore a valid Muslim conflict resolution method otherwise there would have been no agreement to cave into 'extremist' demands, for are not extremists deviant and are to be shunned, clearly not under a Muslim construct therefore Barelvi groups are not extremists. The Government itself recognises them as included within the political construct otherwise there would be no negotiation regards what are Muslim religious cultural based political demands.

The following quotes clearly states the reality of a claim one is moderate, what one may hold as moderate from one perspective may not be from another either regards individuals, communities or institutions. Also as the quotes clearly infer claiming you are moderate does not mean it can be taken for granted you are being honest or in fact you actually know you are not, nor does your culture allow you to see sacred precepts of exemplar behaviours as deviant; one contradiction to far.

While the goal of ‘purifying the world of injustice, cruelty, and all that is anti-human’ is not in itself irrational, Stern (2003: 281) argues it may be motivated or accompanied by a ‘spiritual calling’, which is irrational."

"Arms 'Will Be Cut Off'" A Muslim ocean of 'moderation' and not a drop of peace to drink.

Arif’s Muslim derived cognitive state is not what Mao Zedong termed a problem of contradiction, it is a Muslim cognitive state which enables a contradiction under a Western perspective, a professed adherence to a Muslim rationale model which promotes justice-peace therefore moderate behaviour to be the same as, Other knows by evidence interpreted through a Western worldview to be not justice-peace – terrorism. If terrorists walk from your cultural space or you support organisations delivering terror-genocide you adhere to a terror-genocide ideology not a peace and justice ideology. Claim to moderation under a Western definition is forfeit.

Arif is the quintessential example of why a Muslim claiming to be moderate peaceful just cannot be taken as espoused, this is apart from the terror-genocide Muslim culture informs in the streets. This does not mean 'good' Muslims do not exist, friendly, professional, kind, they have and do, it is the fact their existence makes absolutely no difference to whether or not in the end-game your culture will be subject to terror-genocide, or subjugation if you’re lucky, despite what is promised by either the 'good' or the not so good, as history reveals they cannot be trusted, and for good reason, in essence Muhammad's Quran and Muhammad's life exemplar template does not provide the 'good', from a Western perspective, with powerful enough justification and authority to override the Muslim altruists walking from the 'goods' very floors achieving the required silence "for fear of being branded as disloyal to their faith or their community”.

To claim movement from an extremist worldview cluster to a 'moderate' worldview cluster within what is a non-contradictory cultural rationale ethical bounded schema which holds as sacred text justifying authorising others extinction subjugation as did the Nazi sacred text and exemplar behaviour, is the same logic as Goebbels Reich Minister of Propaganda of Nazi Germany from 1933 to 1945 claiming moderate Nazism exists and from now on Nazis will be moderate - Nazi terror-genocide will be no more.

It also determines an almost impossible whole of culture cognitive
'moral shift' which has already been embedded in adherents psyche, one would expect very high levels of power both soft and hard will be required just in Saudi Arabia to contain what would be expected, a violent reaction, violence as we know is a Muslim cultural method for dealing with deviance. As the Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman is a Muslim Sunni he has no relative power to bring to bear to turn Muslim Shiite terror, Iran, or Hezbollah for instance to his own or a Western definition of 'moderate'. 

Saudi Crown Prince’s Mass Purge Upends a Longstanding System, DAVID D. KIRKPATRICK, NTY, NOV. 5, 2017

It is good to see the young Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman has started his power play, but alas he is trying to weed his own garden where the weeds are considered by others as exquisite perennial flowers requiring the utmost care - the purist of Allah's poetry that insult of any kind, even of the most wistful, will be met with already imbued aggression for just a cultural scripted occasion. Having to weed the Saudi palace vicinity in itself has dangers but the whole Muslim culture - where each Muslim has been granted by Allah the special insight to sniff out apostates and once done the apostates continuing existence as detailed in the Quran is a test of a true Muslim's faith.

“When news broke of a possible breakthrough in an impasse that has pitted Qatar against its Arab neighbours for the past three months, one of Saudi Arabia’s most well-known clerics expressed his support for reconciliation in a tweet to his more than 14 million followers. “May God bring their hearts together for the good of their people,” Salman al-Ouda wrote, garnering 15,000 likes, 13,000 retweets and nearly 2,000 responses.
Within hours of his post on September 9, the cleric was detained, sparking the start of a crackdown in which at least 30 people have been rounded up in recent days as apparent Islamist sympathisers and critics of the crown prince, according to Saudi rights activists. Among those reportedly detained was Awad al-Qarni, another popular cleric who was banned from writing on Twitter in March 2017 on charges he spread content on social media that could jeopardise public order and provoke public opinion.
Saudi Arabia’s council of state-backed Wahhabi clerics said on Twitter after the arrests that the country was founded on the Quran and the words and actions of the Prophet Muhammad “so there is no place for political parties or ideologies”.

No going back:

“Now, Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman is curbing their power as part of his drive to impose his control on the kingdom and press for a more open brand of Islam.
Before the arrests on Saturday of his fellow royals and former ministers on corruption allegations, Prince Mohammed had stripped the religious police of their arrest powers and expanded the space for women in public life, including promising them the right to drive.
Dozens of hard-line clerics have been detained, while others were designated to speak publicly about respect for other religions, a topic once anathema to the kingdom’s religious apparatus…..
“They did a pre-emptive strike,” one cleric said of the arrests. “All those who thought about saying no to the government got arrested.”
He acknowledged that many conservatives have reservations about the new direction but would go along, in part because Saudi Islam emphasizes obedience to the ruler.
“It’s not like they held a referendum and said, ‘Do you want to go this way or that way?’” he said. “But in the end, people go through the door that you open for them.”
The clerics have long been subservient to the royal family, but their independence has eroded as they became government functionaries and have been forced to accept — and at times sanction — policies they disliked, like the arrival of American troops, whom they considered infidels, during the Gulf War in 1990.
Human rights groups say the kingdom’s textbooks still promote intolerance, and conservatives in the education ministry pass their views along to students.

Rubicon once crossed no going back Mohammed bin Salman goes West and to a certain future:

“BEIRUT, Lebanon — In a mysterious trip last month, Mahmoud Abbas, the Palestinian president, traveled to Saudi Arabia’s capital for consultations with the hard-charging crown prince about President Trump’s plans for Middle East peace. What was said when the doors were closed, however, has since roiled the region.
According to Palestinian, Arab and European officials who have heard Mr. Abbas’s version of the conversation, Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman presented a plan that would be more tilted toward the Israelis than any ever embraced by the American government, one that presumably no Palestinian leader could ever accept.”
Talk of a Peace Plan That Snubs Palestinians Roils Middle East, NYT, ANNE BARNARD, DAVID M. HALBFINGER and PETER BAKER, DEC. 3, 2017

If Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman is true as to his intentions, forcing the Muslim whole of culture to accept Other religions in the same space and stop Muslim terror-genocide in reverse of what Islam sacred codex advises Muslims to do, Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman is no longer a Muslim and should request exile as an atheist or at least an x-Muslim, obtain a new identity, in a safe housekeeping chickens, or have an incredibly enduring, skillful and faithful to the Crown not Faith security service - that is if Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman wants to survive past the next three months. 

As of 7-3-2020 he has survived more than three months utilising terror as he must given the very Muslim imbued ethics within the society he exists are an antithesis of the nature of his stated goals. It is only a matter of time. Your biology/Culture Ideology only enables an existence within its behavoral variance you cannot ascribe to a differing Culture and/or Ideology and not be subject to the prescribed deviance paradigm which in the Muslim Culture Ideology is violent death.

"MBS has been lauded at home for easing social restrictions in the kingdom and opening up the economy.

But he has come under international criticism over a devastating war in Yemen, the murder of Khashoggi in the kingdom's Istanbul consulate and the detention of women's rights activists seen as part of a crackdown on dissent.

"Prince Mohammed is emboldened - he has already ousted any threats to his rise, and jailed or murdered critics of his regime without any repercussion," Becca Wasser, a policy analyst at the US-based RAND Corporation, said of the latest crackdown.

"This is a further step to shore up his power and a message to anyone - including royals - not to cross him."

Rami Khoury, a journalism professor at the American University of Beirut, echoed Wasser's sentiment, saying the idea of a coup being fomented was unlikely in light of the "immense, direct and brutal control" that the crown prince has over all of the kingdom's security agencies. 

"It is a sign of the nervousness of the crown prince and the people around him who rule Saudi Arabia because they probably expect that the king will either abdicate or pass away soon. They expect there might be some kind of challenge to the succession," Khouri said. 


"The critical thing about this, I think, is that it is the final affirmative confirmation, the seal on Mohammed bin Salman taking over the mantle of the Arab autocrats that used to be held by people like Saddam Hussein, Muammar Gaddafi and Hafez al-Assad."

Holding a position of power with ideals is one thing driving change from the top requires either the elite are weak enough, your security-military are all with you rather than behind you, the people can be soft power cajoled with a shadow of hard power if required, or like Henry the Eighth the elites and religious establishments lead roofing and wealth can be divided between the elite and your security-military who are all with you rather than behind you, the people are willing to participate in sharing whatever is left over and be soft power cajoled with a shadow of hard power regards imbued sacred precepts being turned on their head. Vervent Cromwell and Lenin willing to utilise-mesmerise the vervent masses with divine imagery of that which must be above reality with heavy enthused ideologically infused altruistic hard power against those enemies within and without, coalescing an effective brutal security service-military willing and able to weed out newly defined apostates. But staying alive, in power this is only the start, instruments of power to keep power now have to be redesigned, rebuilt and enforced child, family, peer group, community, institutions from the cultural ground up.
 

The whole educative development process which enables a Muslim to inform terror will require deleting, and reforming in a Western model discourse framework to inform non-violent dialogue dealing with conflict. History and more pertinently Muhammad's Quran and Muhammad's life exemplar template does not contain sufficient power of justification and authority, as we know from what we see before us, to move to a Muslim 'moderate' culture which does not inherently inform terror-genocide, social/political exclusion and subjugation of Other, and a continual search for Muslim apostates in Muslim ranks to be subject to the same or worse. 

Shifting to what is perceived as the Other culture determination of what is moderate i.e. no more Muslim exclusion social/political subjugation of Other and terror-genocide as a conflict resolution tool, it is now not only a matter of who can bring enough violence to bare but more importantly if the Quran justification and authorisation for terror-genocide can be removed from the text and Muhammad's violent behaviour regards Other can be determined deviant, otherwise nothing changes, repressed Muslim prescriptive normative values unedited will reappear.

“In the worst violence since Hosni Mubarak was ousted, armored vehicles sped into a crowd late on Sunday to crack down on a protest near Cairo’s state television.

Online videos showed mangled bodies. Activists said some people were crushed by wheels.

Tension between Muslims and minority Coptic Christians has simmered for years but has worsened since the anti-Mubarak revolt, which gave freer rein to Salafist and other strict Islamist groups that the former president had repressed.”
Egypt Christians vent fury after clashes kill 25, Tamim Elyan, Shaimaa Fayed, Reuters, OCTOBER 10, 2011

Worse there is no Islamic/Muslim existent sacred discourse able to justify and authorise such a 'morality shift' to not determine Other as evil etc. - what has changed nothing - the Muslim normative precepts still remain to provide the necessary cultural force back to Muslim normative behaviour away from Western constructs of 'good' behaviour regards resolution of significant cultural differences. If Muslims want to renounce terror, exclusion and subjugation of Other they will have to renounce Muhammad's Quran and Muhammad's life exemplar template there is no other way out. This is going to happen? 

"THE Lakemba Mosque has issued a fatwa against Christmas, warning followers it is a ''sin'' to even wish people a Merry Christmas.
....
The fatwa, which has sparked widespread community debate and condemnation, warns that the "disbelievers are trying to draw Muslims away from the straight path".

“'You have to reject them and not only do you have to reject it but you have to disassociate yourself from it,' he said.”

To be a Muslim requires adherence to Muhammad's Quran and Muhammad's life exemplar template, a Muslim cannot be 'moderate' under an Others cultural ethos as the Muhammad's Quran and Muhammad's life exemplar template requires explicitly Other cultures exclusion, elimination or at least initially subjugation as in the case of Christians and Jews (and as we see in reality even with these two groups they are so circumscribed in Muhammad's Quran and Muhammad's life exemplar template as to be destined eventually for elimination). Atheist and other religions well the script is clear. 

"In the past Christians were the majority in Iraq, today we are minority but without us Mosul will never be the same."

He expressed hope that Christians who fled persecution in Mosul would be able to return to their homes now Islamic State militants had been driven out.

"They are not going back because their houses are destroyed or burnt and the church is restoring all of the houses," Patriarch Sako said."

'Moderate' is a Muslim soft power-play to avoid being held accountable for the terror-genocide Muslims have committed and will continue to do so because the justification, authority even a demand Muslims do so remains within the Muhammad's Quran and Muhammad's life exemplar template.

Best of intentions are meaningless if Muslim terror continues to manifest itself albeit in lulls of so called peace which are simply spaces to build to the next Muslim terror-genocide threshold which it will.

Cultures Worldview cause is why insurgents-terrorists exist:

Strategies founded upon Patience and Pathological Altruism enables enemy cultures to Dissimulate, Adapt, Discover, Improvise to Overcome. Culture’s worldview matters, cultures will tell you what you want to hear, it is what cultures have done and are doing which are the true measure of a culture's word, and threat, not your hope the future will be different, it will not.


The Three Points of The Amman Message V.2
In the Name of God, the Compassionate, the Merciful
May peace and blessings be upon the Prophet Muhammad and his pure and noble family
(1) Whosoever is an adherent to one of the four Sunni schools (Mathahib) of Islamic jurisprudence (Hanafi, Maliki, Shafi`i andHanbali), the two Shi’i schools of Islamic jurisprudence (Ja`fari and Zaydi), the Ibadi school of Islamic jurisprudence and the Thahirischool of Islamic jurisprudence, is a Muslim. Declaring that person an apostate is impossible and impermissible. Verily his (or her) blood, honour, and property are inviolable. Moreover, in accordance with the Shaykh Al-Azhar’s fatwa, it is neither possible nor permissible to declare whosoever subscribes to the Ash`ari creed or whoever practices real Tasawwuf (Sufism) an apostate. Likewise, it is neither possible nor permissible to declare whosoever subscribes to true Salafi thought an apostate.
Equally, it is neither possible nor permissible to declare as apostates any other group of Muslims who believes in God, Glorified and Exalted be He, and His Messenger (may peace and blessings be upon him), the pillars of faith (Iman), and the five pillars of Islam, and does not deny any necessarily self-evident tenet of religion.

(2) There exists more in common between the various schools of Islamic jurisprudence than there is difference between them. The adherents to the eight schools of Islamic jurisprudence are in agreement as regards the basic principles of Islam. All believe in Allah (God), Glorified and Exalted be He, the One and the Unique; that the Noble Qur’an is the Revealed Word of God preserved and protected by God, Exalted be He, from any change or aberration; and that our master Muhammad, may blessings and peace be upon him, is a Prophet and Messenger unto all mankind. All are in agreement about the five pillars of Islam: the two testaments of faith (shahadatayn); the ritual prayer (salat); almsgiving (zakat); fasting the month of Ramadan (sawm), and the Hajj to the sacred house of God (in Mecca). All are also in agreement about the foundations of belief: belief in Allah (God), His angels, His scriptures, His messengers, and in the Day of Judgment, in Divine Providence in good and in evil. Disagreements between the ‘ulama (scholars) of the eight schools of Islamic jurisprudence are only with respect to the ancillary branches of religion (furu`) and some fundamentals (usul) [of the religion of Islam]. Disagreement with respect to the ancillary branches of religion (furu`) is a mercy. Long ago it was said that variance in opinion among the ‘ulama (scholars) “is a mercy”.

(3) Acknowledgement of the schools of Islamic jurisprudence (Mathahib) within Islam means adhering to a fundamental methodology in the issuance of fatwas: no one may issue a fatwa without the requisite qualifications of knowledge. No one may issue a fatwa without adhering to the methodology of the schools of Islamic jurisprudence. No one may claim to do unlimited Ijtihad and create a new opinion or issue unacceptable fatwas that take Muslims out of the principles and certainties of the Shari`ahand what has been established in respect of its schools of jurisprudence.

Alas culture determines there are no innocents there are no ‘moderates’ simply a systemic behavioural variance transmitted generation to generation. Although it may be hard for some to accept or even attempt to test the truth of, children do start wars and mothers have been found to have a significant role in imbuing their children with the necessary aggression to continue them. Research is starting to find propensity for violence against Other is transferred across generations culturally and even possibly genetically. Adults are children simply larger versions with a prejudice and motivation to do harm. Research has found cultural prejudice and motivation to do harm to Other exists long before children have the physical wherewithal to run about the battlefield, about five years of age cultural derived prejudice peaks (yes five years of age) and marginally decreases to underwrite motivation for violence and has been found nigh impossible to reverse (despite all the claims to the contrary)=failed deradicalisation programs.

This inconvenient truth for many of the non-existence of child innocents is born out of experience on the ground in conflict areas such as the one in the image above, dependent underline always dependent on the actual culture you’re interacting with. Not all cultures inform the same level of systemic cultural prejudice violence in their altruist enforcers/punishers/aligners the so called 'innocent' families, communities and institutions create to make sure the cultures 'innocent' stick to the cultural message and Other cultures submit via fear of what the culture can and will do.

"Humans are social animals in that they are dependent on one another for connectedness, self-esteem, and knowledge/understanding of the world (which exists only in the context of one’s culture that establishes norms, expectations, attitudes, and values/morality)."
Nelson, Todd D. Getting Grounded in Social Psychology. Psychology Press, 2017-07-06.

"..meta-analysis summarizes 113 research reports worldwide (121 cross-sectional and 7 longitudinal studies) on age differences in ethnic, racial, or national prejudice among children and adolescents. Overall, results indicated a peak in prejudice in middle childhood (5–7 years) followed by a slight decrease until late childhood (8–10 years)."

“. children are sharp eyed, lacking in empathy, and willing to commit atrocities their elders would shrink from.”
Kilcullen, D 2010, Counterinsurgency, Oxford University Press.

"Just as cultural variation clearly dictates the language children eventually speak, cultural variation exerts significant and differential influences over mental, emotional, and social development of children. Every culture is characterized, and distinguished from other cultures, by deep-rooted and widely acknowledged ideas about how one needs to feel, think, and act as a functioning member of the culture. These beliefs and behaviors shape how parents rear their offspring. Culture helps to construct parents and parenting, just as culture helps to define mental health. Culture is also maintained and transmitted by influencing parental cognitions that in turn shape parenting practices. Whether culturally universal or specific, controls are in place to ensure that each new generation acquires culturally appropriate and normative patterns of beliefs and behaviors."
Parenting and child mental health: a cross-cultural perspective, Marc H. Bornstein, 3 October 2013

“When people learn exactly how to be moral from their cultural environments, this starts with the family.
....
...the specific rules we internalise from our parents and peers are culturally maintained by local groups, rather than being firmly encoded in our genes. "
Moral Origins, The Evolution of Virtue, Altruism, and Shame, Christopher Boehm, 2012, p 98

“Culture, defined as the meanings we carry in our heads but also the physical objects we use to express and embody them..” (Jasper 2017)

"..politics provides the enabling mechanism for community action. Violence organised or other, always everywhere has some political meaning."
The Future of Strategy, Colin S. Grey, 2015 (Gray, 2015)

‘What have we done except our normal duty?’
“The centre of gravity of an insurgent movement – the source of power from which it derives its morale, its physical strength, its freedom of action, and its will to act – is its connectivity with the local population in a given area.” (Kilcullen, D 2010)

Again Kilcullen fails to understand the centre of gravity, the source the cause of significant conflict informing terror, war, civil war 
a political action between groups of humans is the Biology/Culture Ideology codex template driven development process. For very violent Biology/Culture Ideologies the development process only differs in form not substance the outcome will be 'bafflement' on behalf of the victims, perpetrators and non-interfering observers ‘What have we done except our normal duty?’

“Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman, who is suspected of orchestrating the murder of the 59-year-old Saudi journalist, was reportedly baffled by why his abrupt disappearance sparked such a backlash around the world.”
Saudi Arabia’s Crown Prince couldn’t understand why Khashoggi’s killing was so outrageous, news.com.au, Gavin Fernando, OCTOBER 23, 2018

“The conditions of the German prisoner of war camps in Russia baffled all description.
(Russell, 1954, p. 60)

”…from the very moment Hitler came to power he and the Nazi party began to put into execution the common plan or conspiracy whose aims had already been set out in Mein Kampf and which included the commission of crimes against peace, war crimes, and other crimes against humanity.
 …
From the Fuhrer at the fountain source, through Gauleiter, Kreisleiter, Ortsgruppenleiter, Zellenleiter, and Blockwart the stream of Nazi doctrine flowed into every home.
(Russell, 1954, p. 5)
 …
”...during the early stages of the trial of major German war criminals at Nuremburg there appeared in the columns of a local newspaper an account of a visit made by some journalist to a camp in which SS prisoners were interned. All had asked him but one question: ‘What have we done except our normal duty?’
(Russell, 1954, p. 7)

 Nazi SS (Schutzstaffelon) mission:
”… Without pity we shall be a merciless sword of justice to all those forces of whose existence and activities we know, on the day the slightest attempt is made be it today, after a decade, or a century hands.”  
(Russell, 1954, p. 8)

“In other days Jews were always prominent in the streets of the banking city (Frankfurt Germany) but on this occasion I saw none. There were none in the few night bars, there were none in the cabarets. Nor in the waking hours did I see but half a dozen Jews in the course of a whole day. They seem to have disappeared from the city.
(Hillson, 1937, p. 59)

"…the Third Reich are moulding the German people into the most unified race in Europe. In that great unified people are looking for peace and friendship with Britain a basis for peace not only for themselves but for everyone else. A close cooperation with France at the expense of Germany can only serve to exacerbate a situation which may soon grow desperate. And it is worth it? Must we forever go on backing the wrong horse?
(Hillson, 1937, p. 296)

“When it suits their defence, they say they had to obey; when confronted with Hitler’s brutal crimes which are shown to have been within their general knowledge, they say they disobeyed. The truth is that they actively participated in all these crimes, or sat silent and acquiescent, witnessing the commission of crimes on a scale larger and more shocking than the world has ever had the misfortune to know.”
(Russell, 1954, p. 4)

Defect as the t
he experience of Other has been what, the similarity, contiguity, contingency, frequency, contrast, intensity of systemic Muslim negative stimuli physical and psychological should cause Muslims and Other to rationally do what? To learn what? You have done what? Do it know.

Here we have 24-10-2018 again we fall on the sword "It could be worse." as some of us, too many of us accept the diabolical of the exact same Culture Ideology source informing heinous behavior of 
Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan "cleansing", violently kidnapping people in other countries, threatening Europe with terror by unleashing Muslim refugees across their borders if the EU did not give Erdogan what he wants, Iran involved in attempting to set off explosions in France, as 'conservative even 'moderate' now because look now when we thought the Muslim-Islam culture Ideology could not inform worse they do as they always have-'It could be worse.' and it will be if the Muslims do not defect to another less violent Culture Ideology and/or we do not act to remove the Muslim Culture Ideology codex(Quran) template(Muhammad) family, community and institutional development  process from humanities midst.

That is the Muslim choice and Others choice continue to say 'It could be worse.' and it will, or say 'Doing the same has not worked, We can be/do much better than this under a new paradigm.'

2015, then-president of the Academy of Military Medical Sciences He Fuchu (贺福初) argued that biotechnology will become the new “strategic commanding heights” of national defense, from biomaterials to “brain control” weapons. All Marx supplied humanity with was a dualistic deviance paradigm with ‘unscrupulous’ methods – terror-violence to eliminate one side. Then what, a thousand whispers, chaos - Coronavirus appeared Predicted Poss. biowarfare ploy. #WHO #CIA is it?

It is not a matter of irrational prejudice, based upon reality across the world until Islam as a cultural ideology template justifying a conflict resolution method of extreme terror to maintain internal control of adherents and force Other to align to its political goals is removed from the world's socialscape humanity will continue to suffer a terrible cost in lives and propensity to improve the human condition.

“To make one exception means to make them all.” - Clothing such as the Muslim headscarf, hijab, burqa... is a political cultural statement and informs adherence and respect for the ideological constructs attached to it which hold tragic consequences for women.
