Reject the zealots

BERYL Bartacek’s letter, “By the book of love”(Gazette, 14 January), is well-meaning, but shows a lack of understanding of the nature of Islam.
She could do no better than to follow her own advice, and read the Qur’an and Mohammad’s biography, though she might be disturbed by the constant anti-Semitism and the exhortations to violence.
She would also find that Islam is not just a religion – it is a totalitarian political philosophy that uses religion, juhad (terrorism), al-hijra (immigration), and taqiyya (lies and deception) to achieve its goal of world domination.
No genuine dialogue is possible with these people, because, following the doctrine of taqiyya, they will always say and do whatever furthers the aim of Islam of world domination, regardless of the truth.
To protect our freedom, we must oppose all totalitarian political philosophies, whether communism, nazism, or Islam.
