In his masterful second volume study of Hitler, Hitler, 1936-1945:
Nemesis, Ian Kershaw discusses a phenomenon called "working towards
the Fuhrer," in which every Nazi Party organization, member and office
automatically, with little or no prompting or prodding by Hitler or his
inner circle, worked to realize the ends and policies articulated by
Hitler before and after he rose to power in 1933. It was automatic,
because to disagree with or have reservations about a single,
even minor aspect of Nazi ideology was to court reprimand, censure,
dismissal, or even death. Agreement with those ends and policies was
nearly a secondary motivation behind any Party member’s actions. He
was compelled to act, regardless of the consequences. The ideology
commanded it, and the Fuhrer’s will and vision were irresistible,
because there was little or no self to resist them.

As Party members who disagreed or expressed reservations were
dismissed, or abandoned the Party, fled, committed suicide, or were
murdered, monsters of the first rank filled the vacuum to formulate
and enact policies that more completely "worked towards the Fuhrer,"
monsters such as Heinrich Himmler, Hermann GÃ¶ring, Joachim von
Ribbentrop, and Joseph Goebbels. When all the checks within the Party
against total irrationality in domestic and foreign policies were
removed or fell into disrepute, total irrationality took over totally.

But the average Party member strived to satisfy Hitler, regardless
of how minor or major the action and regardless if it stood to be
acknowledged or rewarded. To be a true, loyal, above-suspicion Nazi
meant the near total surrender of one’s ego, mind and self, and to
substitute them with Hitler’s own.

"…A world of obedience and of unity. A world where the thought of
each man will not be his own, but an attempt to guess the thought
in the brain of his neighbor, who’ll have no thought of his own but
an attempt to guess the thought of the next neighbor who’ll have no
thought – and so on…around the globe. Since all must serve all. A
world in which man will not work for so innocent an incentive as money,
but for that headless monster – prestige. The approval of his fellows –
their good opinion – the opinion of men who’ll be allowed to hold no
opinion. An octopus, all tentacles and no brain….An average drawn
upon zeroes…." (1).

It is no accident or fluke of history that Islamists – Hamas,
Hezbollah, Ahmadinejad, Saudi Wahhabists, the whole mÃ©nage of
Islamists and Jihadists — admire both Hitler and Nazism. Their
hatred of Jews and Israel is merely one facet of that pathology. As
Nazism required the complete submission of the individual to Party
ideology and an unthinking, unwavering deference to Hitler, Islam
requires the complete submission of the individual to Islam and an
unthinking, unwavering deference to Allah and Mohammed. Islamists
have long recognized that both the method and the ends of Nazism
were in complete agreement and practical accord with their own. The
"mechanics" of a functioning Islam differ in no fundamental way from
the "mechanics" of a functioning Nazism or any other brand of total
collectivism, as described by Toohey above. (2)

(One historical note: Kershaw points out that Hitler once entertained
the idea of solving the "Jewish Question" by helping to establish a
Jewish state in Palestine, where all German and other European Jews
would be forcibly "relocated" and presumably – hopefully – perish in a
wasteland of desert and hostile Arabs. He dismissed the idea because he
feared that such a state could possibly become a political adversary
dedicated to destroying Germany. Historically, the ironic joke is on
Hitler. He destroyed Germany and the Jews turned the wasteland into
a productive, prosperous garden.)

With that in mind, here is a set of significant statistics forwarded to
me by a friend. It charts the progression of Islamic Jihad, both soft
and hard methods, whose purpose is to establish a global caliphate,
especially in the West.

It begins by stating:

"Islam is not a religion nor is it a cult. It is a complete system."

I would disagree. It is definitely a religion and a political system
combined. Any attempt to "separate" mosque and state would emasculate
Islam. I have argued this point in past commentaries and will not
dwell on it here. And cults, if not opposed by reason and kept by
it on the far fringes of a civilized society, have a tendency to
become religions that may become state policies. Ecology was once a
"cult." Today we have the Environmental Protection Agency.

It goes on to state:

"Islam has religious, legal, political, economic and military
components. The religious component is a beard for all the other
components."

Or a mask, or a ruse. But no one should doubt how seriously Islamists
and Muslims in general take the religious component. Islam is a
barbaric but fully integrated system, perhaps more lethally integrated
than was Nazism.

"Islamization occurs when there are sufficient Muslims in a country
to agitate for their so-called ‘religious rights.’"

I would defend anyone’s right to believe in Islam. The question
is: How could one truly practice Islam without declaring Jihad on
others? After a Muslim has won the "internal struggle" or Jihad within
himself, the next step is to wage it against all others. To refrain
from that part of Jihad is to risk the accusation of being a slacker
or pseudo-Muslim. From the first stage to the last, all such effort
constitutes "working towards the Prophet and Allah."

"When politically correct and culturally diverse societies agreed to
‘the reasonable’ Muslims demands for their ‘religious rights,’ they
also get the other components under the table. Here’s how it works
(percentages source: CIA: The World Fact Book, 2007).

"As long as the Muslim population remains around 1% of any given
country it will be regarded as a peace-loving minority and not as a
threat to anyone…."

Here is where it becomes interesting. Note throughout the exponential
scale of Islamic influence as the percentage of Muslim population
per country increases. Comments in square brackets are my corrective
interjections.

United States: 1.0 Australia: 1.5 Canada: 1.9 China: 1.0-2.0 Italy:
1.5 Norway: 1.8

"At 2% and 3% they [Muslims] begin to proselytize from other ethnic
minorities and disaffected groups with major recruiting from the
jails and among street gangs."

Denmark: 2.0 Germany: 3.7 United Kingdom: 2.7 Spain: 4.0 Italy: 4.6

"From 5% on they [Muslims] exercise an inordinate influence in
proportion to their percentage of the population. They will push
for the introduction of halal ("clean" by Islamic standards) food,
thereby securing food preparation jobs for Muslims. They will increase
pressure on supermarket chains to feature it on their shelves –
along with threats for failure to comply (United States)."

France: 8.0 Philippines: 5.0 Sweden: 5.0 Switzerland: 4.3 The
Netherlands: 5.5 Trinidad & Tobago: 5.8

"At this point, they [Muslims] will work to get the ruling government
to allow them to rule themselves under Sharia, or Islamic law. The
ultimate goal of Islam is not to convert the world but to establish
Sharia law over the entire world.

"When Muslims reach 10% of the population, they will increase
lawlessness as a means of complaint about their conditions (Paris –
car burning). Any non-Muslim action that offends Islam will result
in uprisings and threats (Amsterdam, Denmark – Mohammed cartoons,
murder of Theo van Gogh)."

Guyana: 10.0 India: 13.4 Israel: 16.0 Kenya: 10.0 Russia: 10.0-15.0

The one anomaly in this set of statistics is Israel, which has not
experienced uprisings and threats of violence. Its Arab or Muslim
population enjoys equal political rights with Jewish Israelis. The
suicide bombings and rocket attacks that have killed hundreds have
been perpetrated by outsiders.

"After reaching 20% [of a population] expect hair-trigger rioting,
Jihad militia formations, sporadic killings and church and synagogue
burning:

Ethiopia: 32.8

"After 40% you will find widespread massacres, chronic terror attacks
and ongoing militia warfare:"

Bosnia: 40.0 Chad: 53.1 Lebanon: 59.7

"From 60% you may expect unfettered persecution of non-believers and
other religions, sporadic ethnic cleansing (genocide), use of Sharia
Law as a weapon and jizya, the tax placed on [conquered] infidels:"

Albania: 70.0 Malaysia: 60.4 Qatar: 77.5 Sudan: 70.0

"After 80%, expect state-run ethnic cleansing and genocide:"

Bangladesh: 83.0 Egypt: 90.0 Gaza: 98.7 Indonesia: 86.1 Iran: 98.0
Iraq: 97.0 Jordan: 92.0 Morocco: 98.7 Pakistan: 97.0 Palestine: 99.0
Syria: 90.0 Tajikistan: 90.0 Turkey: 99.8 United Arab Emirates: 96.0

I question the inclusion of "Palestine" in this set. "Palestine"
simply means space occupied by stateless "Palestinians" in Gaza and
the West Bank, and is the name of the state which Islamists wish to
replace Israel, once it is destroyed. Turkey, after decades of having a
secular, non-religious government, is beginning to turn "religious,"
and seems to be yearning for the kind of Muslim government that
cleansed the country in 1915 of non-Muslim Armenians in a genocide
that predates the Holocaust.

"100% will usher in the peace of ‘Dar-es-Salaam’ – the Islamic House
of Peace’ [more correctly, dar-al-Islam, or Land of Islam]. There is
supposed to be peace because everybody is a Muslim."

Afghanistan: 100.0 Saudi Arabia: 100.0 Somalia: 100.0 Yemen: 99.9

"Of course, that’s not the case. To satisfy their blood lust, Muslims
then start killing each other for a variety of reasons.

"’Before I was nine I had learned the basic canon of Arab life. It was
me against my brother; me and my brother against our father; my family
against my cousins and the clan; the clan against the tribe; and the
tribe against the world and all of us against the infidel.’ Leon Uris,
The Haj.

"It is good to remember that in many, many countries, such as
France, the Muslim populations are centered around ghettos based
on their ethnicity. Muslims do not integrate into the community
at large. Therefore, they exercise more power than their national
average[s] would indicate.

The Historical Roots and Contemporary Threat."

Hammond’s book is sponsored by the Frontline Fellowship, a Christian
organization, and the book itself was published by Christian Liberty
Books. The Frontline website contains several endorsements of the
book by clerics and missionaries. The quoted paragraphs above were
"adapted" from Hammond’s book (by whom, is unknown), and not very
professionally. The statistics themselves were compiled by the CIA
and used in the book.

The first paragraph of the Frontline ad for the book reads:

Of course, an Ellsworth Toohey might say that the joke was on the
rank-and-file Nazi: he would claim that Hitler was essentially
selfless, and that what little mind Hitler possessed was founded on
what he thought his followers and "the people" wanted and expected of
him as prophet and dictator. Ayn Rand, in The Fountainhead, describes
that phenomenon through Toohey: "…A world of obedience and of
unity. A world where the thought of each man will not be his own,
but an attempt to guess the thought in the brain of his neighbor,
who’ll have no thought of his own but an attempt to guess the thought
of the next neighbor who’ll have no thought – and so on…around the

The first paragraph of the Frontline ad for the book reads: "Dr. Peter
Hammond’s new book…is a fascinating, well illustrated and thoroughly
documented response to the relentless anti-Christian propaganda that
has been generated by Muslim and Marxist groups and by Hollywood
film makers…."

distinguished from its symbiosis with Nazism – see Daniel Pipes’

So, regardless of the book’s Christian orientation, the statistics
Hammond uses to cite the various Muslim populations in each country
can be taken as reliable, as well as the prefatory remarks before each
set of percentages. There is certainly a demonstrable and observable
corollary between a country’s Muslim population and the influence it
begins to have or has had on its government, politics and culture.

The Islamists are coolly "working towards the Prophet and Allah"
as shown in the numbers above. Meanwhile, our policymakers appear
to be a succession of compliant, pragmatic, non-judgmental zeroes
blindly working towards the conquest and extinction of the West.
