Since our MPPs and MPs appear unwilling to speak out against the very real threat of Islam\u2019s political agenda, they have instead directed their efforts towards motions and agendas calculated to keep informed voices to a minimum, if not entirely silenced.<\/p>\n<p>Fortunately, not every political party or its leader is \u201cIslamophobic.\u201d  <strong>There is one political party and leader with the courage to publicly say what desperately needs to be said: Freedom Party and its leader Paul McKeever <\/strong>who is our guest today on Just Right.<!--more--><\/p>\n<p>Paul\u2019s Feb 22 Open Letter to all members of the legislature, members of the media and to Freedom Party supporters called upon \u201ceach and every MPP &#8211; of any and every party &#8211; to oppose Nathalie Des Rosiers\u2019 Islamophobia motion in its current form.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"\/\/www.freedomparty.on.ca\/mediareleases\/2017-02-22.pr.htm\" target=\"_blank\">\/\/www.freedomparty.on.ca\/mediareleases\/2017-02-22.pr.htm<\/a><\/p>\n<p>At issue was the term \u201c<strong>Islamophobia<\/strong>\u201d \u2013 in particular, the continual and outright refusal to define the term on the part of those calling to condemn it.  Nevertheless, committed to this intellectual and moral vacuum, Ontario\u2019s legislature unanimously passed the motion on Feb 23.<\/p>\n<p>Should the various provincial and federal motions about \u201cIslamophobia\u201d entertained thus far become law, Canadians who would associate yesterday\u2019s \u201cterrorist attack\u201d in London England with Islam might find themselves labeled \u201cIslamophobic\u201d \u2013 should they dare to say so publicly. After all, isn\u2019t Islam \u201ca religion of peace\u201d?<\/p>\n<p><strong>Sadly, both the ideology of Islam and its definition of \u201cpeace\u201d are incompatible with a free society.  <\/strong>The \u201cpeace\u201d of Islam is a political theocracy.  Islamists oppose man-made law and systems of governance \u2013 arguing that all humanity must follow a divine supernatural law.  In practice, of course, this means that Islamists \u2013 quite human \u2013 must rule those who do not share their hatred of democracy and of laws made by the consent of the governed.<\/p>\n<p>How this supernatural law is to be established is the key to Islamist strategy.  The threat from Islam is less from terrorism or attacks against free speech etc. (which are real enough), than from its political ideology aimed at establishing a theocracy. <\/p>\n<p>Understanding the vulnerability of freedom in a way that our own politicians apparently do not, Islamists have discovered that the rights to <strong>Life, Liberty, and Property<\/strong> are a very useful weapon in their efforts to destroy those rights.  In tandem with that very kind of thinking, our parliamentarians and legislators continue to co-operate with, and fuel, the Islamist ideal.<\/p>\n<p>Contrary to the beliefs of many as expressed in the popular media, \u201cmotions\u201d are not mere expressions of sentiment or emotion. \u201cMotions\u201d made in legislatures and in parliaments are evidence of government in motion.   Worse, motions condemning \u201cIslamophobia\u201d are <strong>Theocracy in motion<\/strong> &#8211; a Theocracy approaching us rapidly as it hides behind its \u201cpolitically correct\u201d cover of \u201cIslamophobia\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>In the words of James E Mitchell:  \u201c(Islamist terrorists) would see political correctness as a force multiplier and a cloaking device.  Political Correctness allows them to operate in the open and ratchet up Sharia without being challenged.   Because every time you challenge or push back, there\u2019s this made up \u2018Islamophobia.\u2019   I\u2019m a psychologist.  I know what a phobia is.  There\u2019s no \u2018Islamophobia.\u2019  That\u2019s something made up by the Muslim Brotherhood to keep people from saying what is actually occurring.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Canada&#8217;s parliament and Ontario&#8217;s legislature appear to be led by Islamophobic politicians in search of the submissive state, but theocracy and the supernatural offer nothing natural or super for humanity.<\/p>\n<p>The rights to Life, Liberty and Property have their source in the application of Reason to Reality.  These rights are nothing \u201csupernatural\u201d, but have proven themselves to be \u201cnaturally super\u201d &#8211; which is what makes them Just Right.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"\/\/www.justrightmedia.org\/blog\/497-topics\" target=\"_blank\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/\/www.justrightmedia.org\/images\/buttons\/topics.gif\" \/><\/a> <a href=\"\/\/www.justrightmedia.org\/blog\/497-clips-credits\" target=\"_blank\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/\/www.justrightmedia.org\/images\/buttons\/clips_and_credits.gif\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&nbsp; Make no mistake: Our Islamophobic politicians are those most responsible for fostering the make-believe phobia against which they are passing \u201cMotions.\u201d The \u201cmotions\u201d themselves are cause enough to be rightly concerned.
