tionships <strong>of</strong> mutual tolerance and peace... In the aftermath <strong>of</strong> the Sept 11<br />

attacks, however, a dire problem emerged. Certa<strong>in</strong> circles that claim to<br />

speak on behalf <strong>of</strong> Islam, but clearly lack the understand<strong>in</strong>g <strong>of</strong> the<br />

essence <strong>of</strong> it, work to wreak suffer<strong>in</strong>g on humanity rather than striv<strong>in</strong>g<br />

for its benefit. In attack<strong>in</strong>g and kill<strong>in</strong>g <strong>in</strong>nocent people, they committed<br />

the vilest s<strong>in</strong> forbidden by Islam - <strong>in</strong> other words, they brought chaos to<br />

the world."<br />

How would your proposed Islamic Union deal with the problem <strong>of</strong><br />

terrorism?<br />

MR. OKTAR: The most effective struggle that can be waged<br />

aga<strong>in</strong>st terror is an <strong>in</strong>tellectual one, a struggle <strong>of</strong> ideas. It is<br />

impossible to defeat mosquitoes until the swamp they breed <strong>in</strong><br />

has been dried up, <strong>in</strong> other words, until the ideologies represent<strong>in</strong>g<br />

the foundations <strong>of</strong> terror have been<br />

elim<strong>in</strong>ated. Darw<strong>in</strong>ism lies at the heart <strong>of</strong><br />

terrorism. You cannot expect someone<br />

who has been <strong>in</strong>doctr<strong>in</strong>ated to regard<br />

human be<strong>in</strong>gs as a k<strong>in</strong>d <strong>of</strong> animal, to<br />

believe that progress is possible only<br />

through conflict, and to th<strong>in</strong>k one has to be<br />

strong to survive, to also be lov<strong>in</strong>g and compassionate.<br />

Such a person's ruthlessness and<br />

will<strong>in</strong>gness to kill, without batt<strong>in</strong>g an eyelid,<br />

anyone who threatens his own <strong>in</strong>terests,<br />

and slaughter others for the sake <strong>of</strong> the ideology<br />

he espouses is the natural consequence<br />

<strong>of</strong> Darw<strong>in</strong>ist <strong>in</strong>doctr<strong>in</strong>ation. Those<br />

who claim to resort to terror and violence <strong>in</strong><br />

the name <strong>of</strong> Islam are at heart Darw<strong>in</strong>ists.<br />
