DIANA WEST: family courts [in England] to be determined by Sharia, which have all kinds of inequality for women, you know, women need for, well, this would be a criminal case, but under the Sharia, women need 4 witnesses to a rape to bring charges

What you're looking at is the confluence, the sort of affinity of totalitarianism, and what I mean by that is despotism, or we call it in a 20th century, totalitarianism, and Islam have great commonality: the control factor.  --Diana West
from Michael Farris @ "Coffee and a Mike" Show.  

4:05.  I had kind of a baptism by fire if you will in an education on Islam because at the time of 9/11 very few people knew anything about it and as I was struggling to learn I was immediately coming up against obstacles and censorship and ostracism you name it and I was very conscious of what language could be used, what the freight would bear in the public square because I was writing newspaper columns I was writing editorials at the Washington Times and also going out over the wire so I was acutely aware of what could be said, what should be said, what wasn't being said, along about a few months into all of this terrible frenzy that happened at that time after the destruction of the twin towers and the Pentagon and the plane over Pennsylvania.

7:40  The silence on Islam protects Islam.

18:14. You know they are not a fan of their government they are from there there's a reason why they left there. Some of them are Muslims, some of them are not anymore.  They are Americanized now but they're good people, right? And I'm not saying you're saying that but in just in terms of . . . 

18:38.  I was just going to say the anecdotal and the personal is not how we do statecraft however I think the wise answer to that is from a writer and ex-Muslim, named Ibn Warraq, whose book I very . . . I mean it was very happenstance.  On 9/11 or I guess it was probably 9/11 or 9/12, I went to my local bookstore.  We still had bookstores all the way back then.  This was Borders Books in Westchester County, New York that's where I lived at the time which is about an hour outside of New York City and so the Islam shelf had been pretty much cleared out when I wanted to go buy a Quran and I wanted to start getting some books cuz I was going to start writing and thinking and all of that. One of the books I came to was a book by Ibn Warraq who was an ex-Muslim, and he wrote a book called, Why I am not a Muslim, 1995, and it's very fascinating overview of all of these issues.  He loves his family.  He has family members who don't even know he left Islam and he writes under a pseudonym and he says that it's not that there is no such thing as a moderate Muslim, however, and there is no moderate Islam and so there is wiggle room for anybody inside any sort of system but the system itself is what we would call extreme it's not exceptional it is sanctioned by the Quran mainstream writings, the Quran itself, the Hadith, the Surah, all of these Macy's for the religion sanctioned these things and so whether somebody is falling away or leaves it and you have to keep that secret because apostasy is a capital crime in Islam.  You know, it is literally a death penalty offense to leave Islam.  But if you are, you know, finding a new way on your own, that's a separate issue.  But in terms of the Sharia, which we see Sharia courts I think they first started coming into England probably about 10 no over a dozen years ago, family courts to be determined by Sharia, which have all kinds of inequality for women, you know, women need for, well, this would be a criminal case, but under the Sharia, women need 4 witnesses to a rape to bring charges.  You know the inheritance laws, etc., very anti-woman.  So these kinds of things start seeping into society regardless of a moderation of an individual.  So that is kind of where I'm coming from.  It's very important to keep the tenants and the mainstream classical sources of this in mind.

22:13.  Do you feel that in all your research because I like I look at this and I think especially, let's talk about Europe for a second because to me it's the European governments these countries that allowed all this.  I mean I know Belgium is way out of hand England France Ireland my friend Matt Bracken was just over Ireland Germany, . . . 

. . . .Denmark, Norway, . . . 

. . . Spain and Italy part of this too?

22:42.  all of them, all of them to varying degrees.  You're right you're absolutely right this had to be enabled and this is where I get to the next big thought I wanted to throw around which has to do with what is sometimes referred to as the red green axis.  So red being communism green being Islam why would the two work together we were looking at the influence of these governments these are not native Islamic governments.  These are European for the most part.  I mean England has very much changed to a lot of Islamic British people who now run cities, but they are Islamic, you know, the mayors, and so on, and so many of that.  But I'm not talking about that.  I'm talking about the native born, the indigenous peoples of Europe enabled this, or their governments certainly.  What you're looking at is the confluence, the sort of affinity of totalitarianism, and what I mean by that is despotism, or we call it in a 20th century, totalitarianism, and Islam have great commonality: the control factor.

23:57.  The control of Islam is not just control controlling the politics of the world; there is the law, and there is a law that comes down to your most personal behavior, literally, including how you wash yourself and things like that, and which hand goes first in various extremely private acts. These are all written out in terms of law.  So it is a what there's been numerous historians pretty much between the middle of the 19th century and the middle of the 20th century, who made these observations about how before we come to the word totalitarian, but how despotic Islam is, the control system, law, religion, you know, culture, everything under control and written out.  And then when you marry that to the strain of Marxism that became Bolshevism first after the Russian Revolution and so on, there is a tremendous synergy between them as control systems.  And so you see numerous thinkers, experts in Sharia law, experts in communism, coming to this very interesting conclusion that I think does explain why you see this red green axis.  Look at the latest anti-Trump, anti Netanyahu protest that's been called in Washington DC outside the White House.  If you look at the sponsors
