Hugh Fitzgerald: “On whether or not I am mentally ill”

I’ll leave it to others to decide if I am mentally ill. Were I to be considered such, I would note that I, as a once-perfectly sane Infidel, have had to spend a lot of time, far too much time, on the Belief-System of Islam and all of its permutations and combinations of craziness.

(…)

And since Muslims have shown, or a great many have shown, that they do not regard as acts of terrorism many things which we non-Muslims do see as such, but rather see them as new ways of conducting combat in “unequal situations” (yes, how unfair of the Infidels to have been able to produce and manufacture all those tanks and planes that not a single Muslim state has yet been able to produce, despite the oil-rich Muslim states having received more than ten trillion dollars since 1973 alone…)

If one’s writing or arguing or acting on the argument that those who identify themselves as “Muslims” should be assumed to believe in Islam makes one “mentally ill,” then among those “mentally ill” are at least a billion Muslims.
