Islam Imploding

A few years ago I wrote that about the population explosion on planet Earth. At the beginning of the twentieth century, world population stood at one billion. Today we are well over seven (7) billion.The logical conclusion was that at some point the competition over raw materials, water and food between different players would be fierce and not all would survive. My belief was that Islam and specifically arab Islam (but not only), would implode.

This conclusion was arrived at for different reasons. The main reason was that Islam as a religion would not be able to adapt to an economical environment on the same footing as others. Extreme Islam spreads amongst poor and extremely poor folk. It does not thrive in an atmosphere of prosperity or in a system of democracy. It is uncompetitive simply because the majority of the population do not work (the women). Until recently they used the leverage created by energy to maintain their importance to the economically developed communities. This however has been greatly negated by the huge discoveries of LNG (liquid natural gas) in many places on the globe. As the economic deterioration continues the split in Islamic society is becoming more evident.

The Sunni Muslims have split into controlling sects of extreme religious (ISIS, Al Qaeda, Boko Harem, Muslim Brotherhood and Hamas), religious (Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Turkey and Jordan) and secular Militarists (Egypt, Palestinian Authority, Emirates). The Shiites appear to be united but all on the extreme polarity (Iran, Syria, Hizbullah and parts of Lebanon). The confrontation between the different groups appears to have created some strange bedfellows. Clearly Israel is militarily aligned with Egypt, Jordan, PA, Emirates and believe it or not, Saudi Arabia.

At the same time we are witnessing civil wars in Syria, Iraq, Libya, Yemen and Sudan. Interestingly, all these countries water levels have fallen to or below sea level. Another addition to the water level crisis is Afghanistan. Expect a new civill war when the Americans depart. Except for Israel and to a certain extent, Turkey, the Middle East is deteriorating into a quagmire of hatred, war and destruction.

In conclusion, the vacuum created by the US in the mid-east for whatever reasons, known maybe only to US president Barack Obama, or simply as a result of his naive world view, is leading the world to the creation of a new cycle of turmoil. This, characterized by attempts by Islam to survive via  a creeping occupation of Europe, anti-semitism cloaked by anti-Israel elements, personality problems that Mr Obama has with almost all and sundry (Putin, China, Netanyahu, the Sunni world etc.). American deterrence has been neutralized worldwide and even at home (Ferguson...the Obama parasites turning on each other in a surreal comedy of culture or lack thereof). Bottom line, Gaza is just another symptom of the hypocritical cancer of political correctness imposed upon us by Intellectuals on the left. Justifying Hamas terrorism has led to ISIS and ISIS will be coming to a theatre in your vicinity soon. The bed has been made...sleep in it. Sweet dreams.

Hypocrisy is not a way of getting back to the moral high ground. Pretending you're moral, saying your moral is not the same as acting morally.
