Chapter 19
Islamic Aid (Jizya)
Many misguided pundits, having no specific knowledge of the philosophy of Islam, continue to
attribute the core cause of terrorism to poverty and desperation, proffering the solution of undermining
terrorists support base by providing increased aid. They assert that recipients of significant food, material,
and cash will experience gratitude and begin to love us, or at least hate us less. Such assumptions are
wishful ‘magical’ thinking at its worst. Any review of empirical evidence and history of radical Islam
suggests that all such assumptions are delusional if not dangerous. As outlined in Islamic Economics 101,
the nature of Islam guarantees inferior prosperity in Islamic nations, which since its inception has inspired
only envy, lust, and often sanctimonious plunder. Muslims, convinced of their superiority over nonbelievers,
are incapable of feeling gratitude for that which they sincerely believe is owed to them.
Muslims are Masters by divine decree, whereas all dhimmi are slaves whose very lives are at the disposal
of their masters. When Moslems find infidels enjoying greater prosperity, influence, or power than
themselves, calls for Jihad become louder. This is true even in more affluent Islamic lands punch-drunk
on oil wealth. As has been demonstrated in Saudi Arabia, even widespread prosperity does not prevent
either Jihad or the creation of terrorists…it simply better funds it. The lack of gratitude we see today from
Islamic recipients of massive aid is likely because they view the donations as a Jizya tax, which
Muhammad instructs Muslims are fully entitled to.
When a charitable man knows of a family’s need for food, he will do the neighborly thing and impart
of his substance, even delivering it to the doorstep. The giver of aid, by principle, neither asks for nor
expects thanks. However, as a practical matter it would be unthinkable to deliver a spaghetti dinner to a
neighbor who shoots-up our children as they play. Hungry or not, when a society, government, or culture
seeks your destruction, the last thing you want to do is enable that effort. It seems completely irrational to
us, but a rationale exists in the minds of devout Muslims that it is proper to teach their youth to hate and
seek the destruction of America. The foundation of those attitudes as are instilled into young people by
mothers and fathers, religious leaders, school teachers, the media, and by civic organizations and national
governments in hostile lands. The root of all prejudice, including the hatred felt by those who hijacked the
four aircraft on Sept 11, is first taught in the home. Egyptian Mohamed el-Amir, whose son Mohamed
Atta hijacked the first plane that crashed into the World Trade Centre, initially declared that he did not
understand how his son could have acted in such a way, claiming he had raised his son to be a good
Muslim. More recently his true colors were revealed as he praised his sons actions and declared his intent
to support more terrorism. Though it may seem cruel, we need to re-evaluate if we should be providing
support to any people pursuing a murderous agenda destructive to democracy.
Yasin Hassan Omar, the Somali asylum-seeker, is the London Warren Street bomber caught on tape
on 7/7/05. Omar shared a flat with the No 26 bus bomber, Ibrahim, who moved in with him 2 years ago.
Omar had been getting a £88/week housing benefit to pay for a council property flat since 1999, and also
received substantial income support, immigration officials say. So for six years British taxpayers have
financed Omar’s preparations to kill to the tune of £27,456 ($47,789) in rent, plus even more in other
support. As it turns out all 4 bombers had been the ungrateful recipients of significant ‘welfare’ payments.
Apparently violently inclined Muslim immigrants are quite savvy at exploiting such programs.
The question of personal/foreign aid to hostile peoples/nations needs to be re-addressed within the
context of the newly redefined "War on Hateful (Islamic) Ideology". The popular idea promoted by
leftists that poverty causes terrorism has been shown in numerous terrorist profiles to be false, yet still the
UN repeatedly asks wealthy nations to re-double foreign aid, naming poverty as a cause of terrorism.
Former Secretary of State Colin Powell has also weighed in saying: "We have to put hope back in the
hearts of people. We have to show people who might move in the direction of terrorism that there is a
better way". Businessmen like Ted Turner concur, saying: "The reason that the World Trade Center got
hit is because there are a lot of people living in abject poverty out there who don't have any hope for a
better life". Bush policy has responded by increasing aid to impoverished Muslim peoples worldwide.
The vast majority of Palestinians, because of the focus on its people and leadership on terror, live hand to
