Islam was colonizing the world long before the British. Now it’s at it again.
College students being indoctrinated on campuses to take part in Muslim prayers are also taking part in a thousand-year-old process of Islamic colonialism that made Islam a worldwide religion. College students believe by embracing Islamic rituals, they are opposing colonialism when they’re actually practicing it.
The discovery of America and the apogee of European civilization which ushered in the modern world were based on resistance to Islamic colonialism. Since then, European nations withdrew from the Muslim world to avoid colonialism only to be colonized by millions of Muslims from their old colonies. Rather than ending colonialism, Europe went from the colonizers to the colonized, and European governments were called on to once again rule over millions of Muslims, no longer in the Middle East, Pakistan, North Africa or Asia, but in London, Paris, and across their own nations. With that the rulers swiftly became the ruled.
Where the old European governments had looked to pacify Muslims abroad, their EU descendants struggled to pacify them at home. And America soon followed. After 9/11, America had been primarily worried about Muslim terrorism coming from abroad. Now it mostly worries about Islamic terrorism coming from Muslim converts and immigrants within the United States.
A history of Islamic colonialism is repeating itself with the complicity of ignorant ideologues who describe the process by which the cruel imperialism that crippled most of the world made a comeback, subjugating women, cultural and racial minorities and all non-Muslims, as liberation.
The long march of Islam across the Middle East, and then Africa and Asia, had climaxed in a struggle in Europe between the invading Muslim armies and the indigenous population. The Gates of Vienna marked a turning point in which the Islamic empires dominated much of what we came to call the Third World, but were prevented from conquering and colonizing Europe.
The price of the struggle was high and a mostly forgotten Islamic trade in European slaves continued, alongside the traditional trade in African slaves, into the 19th century. The discovery of America allowed European civilization to expand laterally, bypassing the snake pit of pirates and slavers that Africa and the Middle East had become under Islam, and discover new shores.
Columbus had been seeking a new route to India that would replace the land route controlled by the Ottoman conquerors of Byzantium and would also avoid the North African Islamic pirates whose conquest of Spain had been thwarted, but who continued to prey on Spanish shipping, and who posed a hazard on the Portuguese sea route to India around the African coast.
The origins of the United States of America lay in resistance to Islamic Jihad. As Thomas Jefferson and John Adams rediscovered when dealing with the question of Islamic piracy.
When trying to persuade the Islamic emissary to stop attacking American ships and enslaving Americans, Thomas Jefferson and John Adams were told that Islamic piracy and slavery were, “founded on the Laws of their Prophet, that it was written in their Koran, that all nations who should not have acknowledged their authority were sinners, that it was their right and duty to make war upon them wherever they could be found, and to make slaves of all they could take as Prisoners.”
America provided something better than a route to the Indies, although it ultimately allowed westerners to reach India, China and Japan while bypassing the raiding empires of Islam, because it also contained lands and resources that enabled European nations and colonies to build up their own civilizations without recourse to the slave nations under the Islamic boot.
Muslim pirates preyed on New World cargoes, leading to multiple conflicts, including the First and Second Barbary Wars, America’s first true international wars, but the tide had turned. The Ottoman Empire had lost its bid for Europe and would never be able to reach America. Where it had once threatened to swallow the West, it began to decline and was never able to recover.
The brief European colonization of the Middle East and North Africa was a good deal gentler than any of the horrors that Islamic conquerors had inflicted on the region. There was no genocide, mass slavery or the total repression of peoples because of their religion. The greatest Muslim complaints against colonialism are that the British and French provided civil rights to non-Muslims, especially Christians and Jews, and allowed them to form their own countries.
British colonialism ended the Muslim trade in slaves that had traversed the route out of Africa and into Egypt, across Israel and to Arabia. With the end of European colonialism, slavery resumed. Islamic tyrannies like Qatar or Saudi Arabia are serviced by millions of non-Muslim slaves. (Qatar had formally abolished slavery under British pressure in 1952 and Saudi Arabia had only abolished slavery in 1962 under pressure from the Kennedy administration.)
The end of colonialism also marked the end of equal rights for Jews and Christians in the Muslim world. The Christian and Jewish exodus from the Middle East sped up. Over a million Jews from Egypt, Iraq, Yemen and other ‘decolonized’ nations fled to Israel. They along with Arab Christians also continued making their way to America, Canada, Australia and Europe.
Muslims however followed them to these havens. The Islamic settlers in the mediterranean region had never been at peace with the idea that these traditionally Jewish and Christian areas should once again break free and become independent of Islamic rule. Israel and Lebanon soon became known for having the worst terrorist problems in the region. This was no coincidence.
While Christians and Jews in the Middle East, and Hindus and Buddhists in Asia, were under siege by Muslim forces from Africa to Asia, a new wave of Muslim colonization washed ashore on the coasts of Western nations. The new arrivals adopted the protective coloration of identity politics and declared that they were part of a movement to “decolonize” Western nations.
But by decolonization, they mean colonization.
The Islamists are not here to liberate, but to enslave, not to decolonize, but to resume the colonization that had faltered at the Gates of Vienna, and had appeared hopeless when Europe unlocked the New World and no longer had to sail its ships or trade at the mercy of the bandits who had colonized, subjugated and destroyed all the learning and culture of the Middle East.
Their mission is to build armies capable of waging political or military conflicts, to divide and conquer their enemies in Western nations and to impose Islamic theocracy or Sharia law that will solidify their rule and end any hope of freedom, human rights or equality in the free world. It is in the name of this, along with their other colonizing enterprises, against India and Israel, the Yazidis in Iraq or the Buddhists in Bangladesh, that they launch their terrorist attacks against us.
It is not only America alone. Or Israel. Hindus are being butchered in India, and Christians in places as far apart as Nigeria and the Philippines as part of the new wave of Islamic conquests.
Islamic colonialism long predated British men with pith helmets strutting around the third world. Its death toll is in the tens of millions and the resumption of Islamic colonialism ought to be as great a concern as if Nazism had risen from the dead and tanks were speeding across Europe.
Unfortunately too many civilized peoples have forgotten their history and have been convinced that their former and future conquerors are the victims because they were briefly colonized for less than half a century, when Islamic colonialism lasted for over a thousand years, and would not be toppled by any number of peaceful protests or speeches the way that the British were.
Islamism is colonialism. The real decolonization is resistance to Islamic expansionism.

Muslims who pray in public in order to be “seen of men”{which of course is why muslims like to show off in public } is actually condemned by allah in the koran as something only HYPOCRITES do.
Indeed they are”mindful of allah but litte” koran 4:142
It also means they have never read their korans.They are proving to us infidels and to allah that they are hypocrites.
Muslims don’t of course read the koran.Imagine if muslim women discovered that allah misunderstands human reproductive Biology{as the scientific errors of allah show}they might wonder what right allah has to insist women wear hijabs when allah does not understand Biology.
Or they might find something interesting in koran10:94…allah gives a way out of islam…
Barbara says
If the schools would teach what colonization is maybe the students would understand how they are being manipulated.
FYI says
If muslims ever try to force the koran on you ,ask them to read out koran 10:94 and see if they are willing to obey allah’s advice to muhammed to consult with.. the Bible folk
It may help persecuted Christians in islamic countries….koran 5 :46-47
The dawah folk{square tire salesmen} think that by translating the koran into other languages it will convert others to islam but it makes it easier now to see the bogus nature of islam and the koran.
I mean,you wouldn’t buy a square tire would you?
Wellington says
All peoples with power have “colonized.” Numerous American Indian tribes did this to other American Indian tribes (e.g., the Sioux over the Akikara; the Mohawk over the Pequot,; the Aztec over non-Aztec tribes in central America, et al.). Sub-Saharan African tribes like the Zulu did this to other tribes such as the Xhosa. China did this to the Tibetans well over a half century ago when that murderous Marxist thug, Mao, came into power in mainland China. Japan did this to Koreans and the Philippine people before and during WWII. And most certainly the Islamic world has been engaged in “colonizing” from the 7th century onwards.
Notice that only Western colonization is excoriated again and again. No other colonization is and that is because we have entered a very stupid and silly age whereby only the West must apologize for its wrongdoings but no other society or civilization is expected to do so. Compounding this hypocrisy is that the West in its colonization, though often flawed, still did more good than any other “colonizer” in history.
What a mess of an age we live in. It is steeped in massive ignorance and double standards. By now one knows this or should know this. Sadly, so many still don’t.
Kepha says
China’s been colonizing a lot longer than Mao. Note how back in the third century before Christ they colonized Shu, Ba, and the Bai Yue lands. Later, the areas inhabited by various non-Han peoples became the provinces of Guangxi, Guizhou, and Yunnan. The Hmong people scattered over northern SE Asia were originally refugees from Chinese colonization. Before the late Min dynasty, Taiwan was mostly Astronesian; and had one Ming loyalist adminral named Zheng Chenggong (aka Guo Xing Ye/Koxinga) lived a bit longer than he did, Luzon, and probably Mindoro and Palawan would be mostly ethnically Chinese today; and possibly an ethnic Chinese state, if not part of China)..
Consider as well that peoples in diaspora may also represent a kind of “colonization” that could turn political as well as economic and social! I believe that this is something to which the article my point.
somehistory says
An honest professor could easily illustrate the idea. Just use the “big box” companies moving in on a small town where people for decades have shopped at small, locally owned stores, each one limited in it offers.
Hardware stores didn’t carry milk, bread and shoes; dress shops didn’t sell bologna or skis.
Big Box stores move in and offer everything in one place at lower prices but they ruin the businesses and livelihoods of the locals. And perhaps the products are not the quality of the little stores they destroyed.
mozlums move in on other people, and make *offers* not easily refused. These students are being manipulated by mozlums representing islam as exotic, interesting, and grounded, giving the foolish something new to cling to and explore….but only as far as the devout allow.
And all of the islamic centers, etc. are forward positions useful for the eventual takeover of the nation they have colonized.
James Lincoln says
somehistory,
To your point, I was in Walmart the other day (a fairly rare occurrence).
I remarked to my wife that you can cash out with a can of WD-40 – along with a head of broccoli.
Crazy!
somehistory says
Yes, it’s crazy. James.
I believe that’s why some/most grocery stores now carry car products, and even clothing along with the food
Walter Sieruk says
What might be need is an undated and revised version of the Monroe Doctrine which was originally designed to stop any further colonialism of the Americas by the European nations , as Spain , Portugal,,France.
That Monroe doctrine included the Latin countries In other words, it would halt European colonialism also in those lands.
Therefore, a new updated and revised version of that Doctrine would put an end , as in not tolerate,, any further “colonization” of North America and Latin America by any Islamic countries , iI it be massive Muslim immigration or “political intervention ” from or by Islamic nations as ,for example, Iran , Afghanistan , Pakistan.
Pchenenko says
The west is complicit in its own destruction. The Islamic nations after the fall of the Ottoman Empire were mostly poor and illiterate. Then we discovered oil under those sands. Since then, the west has poured our wealth right into their hands, financed and encouraged the education of their youth in our own universities, gave them the fruits of labor of generations of westerners, built their infrastructure, and congratulated ourselves for doing it. We have made ourselves totally dependent on foreign oil and the Muslim nations laugh all the way to the bank. We have to end this madness. Restart domestic oil production and finance advances in the nuclear power industry so that we can cut the yoke that they have on us. Otherwise we are doomed.
James Lincoln says
Pchenenko,
Following the 1973 OPEC oil embargo, the United States should have embarked on a Manhattan project level initiative for total “homegrown” energy production.
We didn’t do it…

It is a Muslim invasion and they are seeking to colonise this country, given enough time, with the Muslim overbreeding, which i can see in action over and over again, seeing Muslim women with four or five kids, far more than any other people in Australia these days, the Muslims could win this war against us and take power in our western countries. Barbaric islam, with nothing of any worth at all to give to the human race, could actually win by outbreeding all others if the invasion is not stopped. The knuckle draggers could win and drag the human race back to living a 7th century Arab life. I heard an interesting statistic last night on Sky News. Australia has about 26 or near to 27 million people. The presenters said that there are 800,000 Muslims and in a few years there will be over a million Muslims they predict. There are only 100,000 Jews here. I was shocked that there are so few Jews. And with the appalling anti-Jewish filth from Muslims and their left wing scum supporters, Jews are not feeling safe here these days as i have heard many Jewish representatives say. Well, at least (so far) we are nowhere near the level of destruction countries.like France and th UK seem to facing.
Mike says
One thing that Australia and other Western countries could do is clamp on on welfare fraud, which is rather common among Muslims (though not all of them), and also crack down on polygamous marriages anf stuff like that.
Also, for Muslims who commit crimes such as terrorism, drug Trafficking, grooming gangs and other felonies, greatly increase the penalties, and deport them after they finish their sentences.
tim gallagher says
I agree, Mike, although i think that the Hungarians and Poles have the right approach, since the trouble that Muslims are bound to always cause in any non-Muslim society is pretty bloody obvious by now, and western societies should slam the door shut on letting the Muslim invasion continue. It won’t happen, of course, because nowhere near enough people have woken up to islam’s evil and incompatible nature yet. There is big trouble up ahead as the Muslim enemy grow their numbers in our western societies.
CalvinsLutheran says
The duty of our present generation is to decide (while it is in our hands) how to implement insurmountable provisions that maintain the status quo of present power structures regardless of any numerical order of population. Our foolishness in granting non-provisional citizenship to foreign anti-American voting blocs is a direct capitulation of our successions of American descendants to outside domination BY DEFAULT. Apparently the fearsome Gerrymandering practice is suddenly immoral. Dual citizenship is only allowed in cases where an individual has an express intention of dissolving the host state by violent means. Given that body of suppositions why can’t we simply sign off our children into Shariah NOW and not procrastinate. Indeed that is Leftist fairness to fulfill at its best? Why should we care about future generations? Why should we bequeath to our dear little ones what we inherited? For the abandonment of our own children to the fire (that in itself an absolute certainty in the near future) hopefully Our God will give us the fate of Montezuma RIGHT NOW!!! As stewards of our progeny’s civilizational inheritance we either stand firm or CAPITULATE. We’ve abandoned our God and are witlessly supplanting Him with and for and by another: A cruel, heartless and totally depraved god of Islam that will continually subject our descendants to 09-11-2001 and Oct 7 2023. Our left-inspired Pollyannas in today’s Western World seem to strive to insure that. AOC, Tlaib, and Ilhan Omar have shown beyond a shadow of a doubt that they truly want: “DEATH TO AMERICA!!!” Eurabia has signs of entropy that is highly probably headed towards irreversible. The American college idiots do not realize that they OPPOSE THEMSELVES. Perfect recipe for DHIMMITUDE.
tim gallagher says
I am certain that future generations in all our western countries are going to curse all the pathetic, dopey sellout merchants of politicians in this present generation who let this Muslim invasion happen. It is, in my opinion, the dumbest and the most damaging policy of all time to let the barbaric Muslims, who obviously want to impose stinking islam on all of us, into our countries. The dumbest move ever in human history, that is how I see it. All this avoidable trouble being imposed on future generations of non-Muslims is an appalling situation.
JimJFox says
Unforeseen weakness of democracy.
Already we see the voting power of the Muslim bloc, UN & IOC making ever more Islamic demands coming from the 60 nation Islamic group. Question nations getting voted into positions for power for the same reason.
I believe it is inevitable but many countries will succumb to Islamic takeover. Can anything be done to avoid this destruction of Western values?
JimJFox says
“Islamists in western nations…”
England Invaded says
And if you’re being colonised, you use lethal force to resist. Capital punishment for traitors who collude.
CalvinsLutheran says
The West does not feel threatened because the West has been lulled to sleep by the thought that we can sleep on any threat. Our civilizational strategy in the West is to rest during a false sense of peace. Fatal strategy soon to cause an inevitable national cataclysm of extreme intensity. As Mike Tyson aptly spoke: “Everyone has a strategy until they get punched in the mouth”.
Deus Vult says
Mr Ray Honeyford who was the head teacher at Drummond Middle School in Bradford UK warned us that this would happen when he questioned the Dept. of Education over the plans to change the national school curriculum in the late 1970s. I have saved newspapers of the day and his foresight is uncanny, it can only go one way.

What did he say? Can you quote him a bit? Thanks.

islamism is the new nazism of today.
Levy says
Jihad has many faces one of it is praying in public and western countries. Another one is media jihad.!
The west does not understand the Middle East or the Muslim world
Maybe it is time to get educated about it, because western values are not their values at all
If you let them they take over your values as you see right now, that ordinary students in all of the elite faculties are joining the Muslims in praying
This is a mass hysteria create it why did democratic government by not functioning at all
Antony Blinken, who travel around the world to order other governments, not to react as well
Of course, nobody will tell you that in the mainstream media, which itself is manipulating the public
Goodness, everybody is lying and ordinary people who seem to be educated all falling for this
This will have a devastating outcome for America, and all countries who are participating in all of this
But the public it’s self is like sleepwalking the deafening silence is just outrageous
