Ideology among Muslims and Islam

"Before I continue, and to avoid misunderstandings, I emphasize that I am speaking of Islam, not Muslims. I always make a clear distinction between the people and ideology among Muslims and Islam. There are many moderate Muslims, but the political ideology of Islam is moderate and has no global ambitions. Its purpose is to impose Islamic law, Sharia, throughout the world. The way to do that is through Jihad. The good news is that millions of Muslims around the world - including many in Germany and the Netherlands, do not follow the directives of the Sharia or enroll in the Jihad. The bad news is that those who do are prepared to use all means at its disposal to achieve its objective as ideological and revolutionary " . 'In 1954, in his essay Communism and Islam, Professor Bernard Lewis spoke of "totalitarianism of the Islamic political tradition."

Aggressive fanaticism of the believers is the same. "
