Title: Time for an Economic Jihad
Post by Calanen on Feb 8th, 2009 at 10:38pm
It’s time for some economic jihad. Let’s destroy a corporation for Palestine.

Muslims must adopt a comprehensive economic strategy in this era of globalization.

If we don’t, then we will be worthy of contempt because we will have become our own worst enemies.

One and a half billion Muslims acting in unison can have a great influence on the global economy.

Indeed, the Islamic ummah is already a key component of the world economy since a market of 1.5 billion people cannot be ignored. But unfortunately, most Muslims have not realized this fact and the profits from our purchases are still being used against us.

When will we wake up?

However, it’s not easy to be a jihadi. The struggle must be fought on the physical, mental, and spiritual planes. True jihad must be fought on all fronts. It must be waged on the cultural, military, intellectual, ideological, psychological, spiritual, and economic fronts.

[Surely he REALLY means the inner spiritual struggle..he must be an Islamophobe to say jihad means these things. Cal]

But in this era of globalization, it is essential that Muslims learn how to correctly conduct economic jihad.

First of all, we must not give money to the enemy.

Even now, the enemies of Islam are laughing at us, saying, “Look at the foolish Muslims. We have brainwashed them so completely that they are giving us their money. They are buying products manufactured by our corporations and are oblivious to the fact that we are using the revenues to pay for weapons that are killing their own people and to fund programs meant to undermine their own culture and way of life. They are financing the destruction of their own civilization.”

Shame on us. This is true for a large segment of the Muslim ummah.

Thus, clearly, it is time to reform ourselves.

And then we can truly begin the economic jihad.

There are about 1.5 billion Muslims in the world. Although we should welcome any help from non-Muslims who believe in justice, our community, the Islamic ummah, is so large that we can do it on our own.

There is currently a campaign calling for a boycott of Israeli products. This is a good idea, but we should expand the campaign and make it a boycott of all corporations that are financing the war on Islam.

Although it is important to target all enemy corporations, in order to achieve a quick initial victory, which would boost morale, we should especially target one giant multinational corporation.

We should first ask the executives of that corporation to stop financing the war on Islam. If they agree, we should take it off the boycott list. If they refuse, we should call for a worldwide boycott of the targeted corporation’s products with the goal of bankrupting the corporation.

The global economic crisis will help us. Many major corporations have gone bankrupt during the global economic meltdown of the past year.

This economic jihad is a novel way to turn the crisis into an opportunity.

A corporation from the U.S. military-industrial complex would be a very good target to begin with.

As a matter of fact, many Islamic countries are buying arms and military equipment from the very same corporations that manufactured the weapons, jets, and tanks that are being used by the Israelis to kill Muslims in Gaza.

Can’t we produce our own arms and military equipment in the Islamic world?

Or, if not, can we at least make our arms purchases from corporations that are not supplying the weapons that are killing Muslims?

If we do not take action now, we will be making a serious strategic error and committing a grave sin. And we will have to hang our heads in shame for failing to act while certain Muslim countries are financing the destruction of Islamic civilization.

The beauty of economic jihad is that it is completely legal. Even Muslims who would not participate in other forms of jihad out of fear of persecution and arrest could join this struggle.

Of course, the enemies of Islam will say that economic jihad is economic terrorism, but when that happens we must act swiftly on the ideological front to prove that such actions are totally legal. After all, people have been organizing economic boycotts for many years.

So, Muslim brothers and sisters, let us take up the struggle of economic jihad now. Destroy a corporation for Palestine.

So according to you, Muslims would be wrong and evil if they enacted economic boycotts on hostile nations, because being Muslims, they are sub-human and have no right to spend their wealth as they see fit right? This is actually because you believe that anything Muslims own (oil, spending power etc.) all belong to the West right?

You are really a despicable creature Calanen. You are far worse than the trumped up claims you try [unsuccessfully] to superimpose onto Islam.

Just a rhetorical question (as I know you won't answer honestly, since only Muslims are sub-humans in your view) were the West wrong in enacting economic boycotts on the Soviet Union and former Eastern Bloc nations? Some of which still exist till this day, and in fact are quite responsible for impoverishing and retarding the economies of those countries?

As you said yourself:

the most brutal killers of Muslims civilians for close to a millenium now.

You are a supporter of killing civilians and a disgrace to humanity. You continually accuse Islam and Muslims of things, which you yourself personally believe are good things, if it's against Muslims that is.

Sounds good to me. Every Muslims who still takes this jihad crap seriously, "cultural, military, intellectual, ideological, psychological, spiritual, and economic", should screw with their own economy. They can weave baskets and throw them at us. It will save us having to buy them at least.
