The politico-religious ideologies of Wahhabism, Salafism, Daobandism, of the Muslim Brotherhood, of Hizb ut-Tahrir and others, are inconsistent with and hostile to the political, social and economic system of our Western societies and should be called out on that and challenged.
Even when not violent themselves they are the gateway drugs towards terrorism, stepping stones on the road to extremism. Only a minority of Muslims are extremists, and only a minority of extremists become terrorists, but no terrorist ever acts without being first radicalised or self-radicalised.
The fact that many of the violent ones do indeed have mental problems or are former criminals is beside the point; extremism has always attracted a far larger proportion of the outliers and misfits than the mainstream ideologies or religions. No one tries to exculpate Nazism because some of its followers were psychopaths and thugs – it goes with the territory and actually makes these sorts of belief systems even more dangerous.
Earlier this week, the British government has declined to offer Pakistani Christian woman Asia Bibi political asylum. After nine years in prison spent awaiting execution for alleged blasphemy, the Pakistani Supreme Court has overturned her death sentence, unleashing a wave of public anger still baying for her blood.
The Brits are citing “security concerns”, claiming that admitting Bibi could cause “unrest among certain sections of the community.” In other words, the British government can no more guarantee Bibi’s life and safety from their Pakistani and Muslim citizens than can the Pakistani government.
I guess granting a Christian woman an asylum would be “divisive” too. I hope we never get to that sad and pathetic point in Australia.This is precisely why we cannot let the poison of extremism fester unchallenged.
