Of the making of inaccurate historical analogies, there is no end

The major flaw in the belligerent Muslim worldview (and that of their leftist apologists) is their presentation of themselves as the New Jews: poor unfortunate victims who need protection from Human Rights Commissions.

But as I’ve said many times, precisely the opposite is true.

Richard Landes has an amazing must-read on this phenomenon:

“When I made my remark about Europe possibly going under to Islam, the chair of my panel rebuked me: ‘It’s like accusing the Jews of wanting to take over the world, a new version of the Protocols of the Elders of Zion.’ The statement is deeply ironic. It’s an attempt to dismiss the awareness of an Islamic imperialism that does threaten Europe by pretending it’s as false as the forged and destructive fantasy of Jews wanting to take over the world. ‘Lest we end up being like the Nazis, let us not go down that paranoid path,’ it seems to say.

“And yet, no Jew ever claimed they wanted to take over Europe or the world; the Jews never had the demographic weight to conceive of a population take-over; and finally, the Jews’ power came from their genuinely playing the rules of the game of civil society.

“In the current scene, Muslims openly declare their desire to take over; they have effectuated a stunning demographic shift over the past generation which is accelerating; and they act precisely as the Jews are accused of doing in the Protocols — using democracy to destroy freedom.”
