The article about Bullshit follow my note;
Indeed, it was a knock down drag out with dissembler Pamela Geller. Sean Hannity asked me to cut down on expletives, an unusual for me. I just read Pamela Geller’s note on her blog, “I will be on the Sean Hannity radio show at the top of the hour (4pm) for a knock down drag out with dissembler Michael Ghouse.
We argued over the word Jihad. The word was used for the first time when Prophet Muhammad’s army came home from a victorious war. The associates asked him, what next? The prophet said, the greater Jihad begins now. The “greater jihad” is the inner struggle to hold on to the temptations to take revenge, or oppress the captured. Instead, he taught one to be humble, and be charitable and kind to them. However the meaning of the Jihad was screwed up around the 10th century to mean war on non-Muslims
She was dishonest in not mentioning that there is no offensive war in Islam. Full Details at: http://www.worldmuslimcongress.blogspot.com/2013/02/ghouse-knocks-down-islamophobe-pamela.html

Bullshit: Ghouse vs Geller–Jihad
http://snooper.wordpress.com/2013/02/10/bullshit-ghouse-vs-geller-jihad/
Pamela Geller and Michael Ghouse argued about Islam & Jihad on Sean Hannity’s radio show. You can listen to the audio here. The title of this post reflects a phrase used by twice by Ghouse in this debate. This debate is in the context of revelation of the fact that John Brennan, nominated to head the CIA, is one of the enemy, a slave of Allah.
Thick accents and rapid speech make this argument hard to follow, but its context and content are extremely important. Mike is a liar: he asserted that “there is no offensive warfare in Islam”, that Islam only fights defensively. Pamela exhibits cognitive dissonance: at once demanding that violent imperatives be expunged from the Koran and acknowledging the impossibility of expunging them.
Muslim supremacists are super arrogant, condescendingly assuming us to be so stupid & gullible that their lies will never be fact checked. With the exception of Risala, which is only available on the web, the books you should be reading are available at Amazon and other book stores. The internet makes some of these texts available to those of us who are not sufficiently affluent to accrue large libraries.
The Muslim appointed to head the CIA claims that Jihad is a “legitimate concept” of self-purification & control in Islam. Each of the six canonical hadith collections, considered the most authentic by Islamic scholars, has a book of Jihad or expedition. I invite you to search each of those books and extract from them the ahadith relating to Jihad an-Nafs. What proportion of those books relate to offensive warfare against infidels and what proportion relate to wrestling with one’s ego? [Riyad us-salihin, Tirmidhi, al Nisa’i & Ibn Majah are large pdf files that may take some time to load. If you read Riyad & Tirmidhi, you will have most of the bases covered; there is much redundancy..]
- Sahih Bukhari
- Khan’s translation
- Bewley’s Translation (more complete, numbered differently and not anchored)
- Riyad as-Salihin
- Sahih Muslim
- Sunan Abu Dawud
- Malik’s Muwatta
- Tirmidhi
- Sunan al-Nasa’i
- Sunan Ibn Majah
Ghouse asserts that Jihad asghar is strictly defensive: he is a liar; I submit proof! Reliance of the Traveller, cited by Geller in the debate, defines Jihad as war against non-Muslims. Here is the full quote, with links added for reference.
(O: Jihad means to war against non-Muslims, and is etymologically derived from the word mujahada signifying warfare to establish the religion. And it is the lesser jihad. As for the greater jihad, it is spiritual warfare against the lower self (nafs), which is why the Prophet (Allah bless him and give him peace) said as he was returning from jihad.
“We have returned from the lesser jihad to the greater jihad.”
The scriptural basis for jihad, prior to scholarly consensus (def: b7) is such Koranic verses as:
-1- “Fighting is prescribed for you” (Koran 2:216);
-2- “Slay them wherever you find them” (Koran 4:89);
-3- “Fight the idolators utterly” (Koran 9:36);
and such hadiths as the one related by Bukhari and Muslim that the Prophet (Allah bless him and give him peace) said:
“I have been commanded to fight people until they testify that there is no god but Allah and that Muhammad is the Messenger of Allah, and perform the prayer, and pay zakat. If they say it, they have saved their blood and possessions from me, except for the rights of Islam over them. And their final reckoning is with Allah”;
and the hadith reported by Muslim,
“To go forth in the morning or evening to fight in the path of Allah is better than the whole world and everything in it.”Details concerning jihad are found in the accounts of the military expeditions of the Prophet (Allah bless him and give him peace), including his own martial forays and those on which he dispatched others. The former consist of the ones he personally attended, some twenty-seven (others say twenty-nine) of them. He fought in eight of them, and killed only one person with his noble hand, Ubayy ibn Khalaf, at the battle of Uhud. On the latter expeditions he sent others to fight, himself remaining at Medina, and these were forty-seven in number.)
Islamic law describes the obligation to wage war against passive infidels as communal: fard al kifaya, which lapses with respect to individuals once a sufficient number have responded. Other obligations, such as Saum & Zakat, are fard Ayn: individually binding. Jihad only becomes fard Ayn when Dar ul-Islam is invaded or threatened. I refer doubters, dissenters & deniers to Reliance O9.1. The obligation to attack passive infidels is described as binding upon Muslims in every year.
Subsequent sections of Chapter 9 inform us that “The caliph makes war on Jews, Christians and Zoroastrians” and “fights all other peoples until they become Muslims. ” I disrespectfully direct doubters, dissenters & deniers: damned fools one and all, to O9.8 & 9.9 for a critical lesson in objective factual reality.
The handbook of Hanifi Fiqh makes it plain with slightly archaic language: war must be carried out continuously, and it is undertaken on Islamic initiative, not in reaction to provocation. I disrespectfully direct doubters, dissenters & deniers, damned fools one and all, to Hedaya, Volume II, Book IX, Chapter 1, pg. 140 & 141 to obtain a clue.
- Text
- The destruction of the sword is incurred by infidels, although they be not the first aggressors, as appears from various passages in the sacred writings which are generally received this effect.
- Marginal Note
- Infidels may be attacked without provocation.
The Sealed Nectar is described As the official biography of the Profit. I now present to you a portion of its Table of Contents. Note the frequent occurrence of terms such as battle and invasion. Islam is so peaceful! The violence started while the Profit was alive, in his last decade though Ghouse would have you believe that it is bida, inserted long after his death. Note the extortion letters dictated and dispatched to neighboring Kingdoms prior to several invasions.

The violence flows from Allah’s Jihad imperatives enshrined in the Koran. Obtain a clue from Tafsir Ibn Kathir, which explains them.
- The Order to fight to eradicate Shirk and Kufr
- The Order to fight People of the Scriptures until They give the Jizyah
Have you seen those signs which declare triumphantly that Islam will dominate the world? Where do Muslims get that idea? Once again, Ibn Kathir has the answer for us.
- The Good News that Islam shall prevail
- The Good News that Muslims will conquer the Known World, and ultimately the Entire World
- The Good News that Muslims will Dominate the People of the Book
We have foolishly allowed an enemy fifth column to invade our territory and infiltrate our government. It is essentially necessary to expel and exclude Muslims from America and Western Civilization. We must first strip off the false mantle of religion, exposing Islam as a mercenary & martial predator preying on the human race. Once exposed and defrocked, Islam can be removed from the penumbra of protection offered by the First Amendment’s Free Exercise Clause, its institutions closed and Allah’s slaves expelled & excluded.
