Of course
Benghazi wasn't an Obama-conspiracy. It was no more than a debacle. But not a
debacle that can be abstracted from Western difficulties to understand and
address the islamist threat. I for myself have now gone one step further than
Ayaan Hirsi Ali and Koenraad Elst, who say that islam itself is the problem and
Muslims must be severed entirely from their islamic belief system, if we do not
want to be left with the only option of violent self-defense against Muslims
being led and terrorised by islamist rabble into an anti-Western insurgency. I
explained my thinking in my piece on "Natural
law and Friedrich Nietzsche's discovery of the individual. Or how it is not the
madness of the prophet that is the problem, but his godforsaken
self-righteousness and disrespect of the natural law". I think I
posted it as a reply somewhere else on this blog, but can't find it anymore.
My new
position is not practically in contradiction with Ayaan Hirsi Ali's and
Koenraad Elst's position, i.e. the end result at which it is aimed is the same.
I just think it is clearer and less exposed to the inevitable ad hominem
counter-attack of islamophobia to say: we do not even fear Muslims (people)
adhering to their self-righteous islamic beliefs (prophet) as long as they
respect our own and everybody else's right of life, liberty and property. I
myself don't know how both could be reconciled. But if Muslisms find a way to
do so, they're always welcome.
It also
has the advantage of not offering any compromise to the Western
social-democratic (leftist) ideologues' own self-righteous disrespect of the
natural law (the individual right of life, liberty and property, with property
rights and freedom of contract being their main and explicit targets). Because
it is Western social-democratic self-righteousness that explains the natural
affinity Western multi-culturalist and relativist ideologues appear to be
developing with islamist ideologues. Anti-capitalism, anti-Zionism, and
anti-Western insurgency, it's one same self-righteous struggle against the
'oppressors'.
I'm using
my own blog now to keep some order, and to prepare I don't know what yet for
the 2014 Belgian federal election, which will be a tough and very confused
fight between the social-democratic mainstream parties backed-up by the MSNM
and a reborn Flemish nationalist party attracting the not so nationalist
protest votes of liberal-conservative Flemish voters in great numbers. The
fight of the social-democratic mainstream parties against the Flemish
nationalist challenger, with misrepresentation of the challenger's position and
motives being greatly facilitated by this nationalist ideological heritage,
actually started with the 2007 election, and it has already become impossible
to untwist all the twisting that has been going on since then. It is fearsome,
I can tell you. And as Koenraad Elst somewhere says from his Indian background,
"a few well placed bullets" can have serious consequences in such a
situation.
