Another front in the language war that Muslims are fighting everywhere can be found here: a Muslim police officer is now enraged that the terms “Islamist” and “jihadist” are being used to label terrorists. “U.K. Muslim Police Association Urged End to ‘Islamist’ and ‘Jihadist’ Labels,” by Jules Gomes, Middle East Forum, June 25, 2026:
Britain’s official representative body for Muslim police officers has sparked outrage after a policy paper published on its website proposed scrapping terms like “Islamist” and “jihadist” to label “terrorists with Islamic affiliations.”
The National Association of Muslim Police (NAMP) has deleted the 39-page paper titled “From Past Prejudices to Present Policies: Confronting anti-Muslim hatred and Promoting Human Rights,” which also demonizes Zionism as “one of the manifestations of anti-Muslim hatred.”
The paper, which calls Zionism “a narrow, nationalist, and colonialist viewpoint that fosters anti-Muslim hatred,” was drafted by Khaldoun Kabbani, former vice president of the NAMP. Published in July 2025, it became widely known only after it was featured in The Spectator on June 5, 2026.
Top Muslim Cop Condemns Association of Jihadism with Terrorism
In a lengthy section on “Islamic Teachings on Warfare and Humanitarian Principles,” the paper warns that “characterising terrorists with Islamic affiliations as ‘jihadists’ or ‘Islamists’ distorts these terms and unfairly associates the broader Muslim community with radicalism.”
But these terrorists are good Muslims, doing as they ought by waging “jihad” against non-Muslims (jihad al-kuffar), through violence, in order to induce fear, or terror, though at times they may also use conventional combat (qital), and also conduct “jihad of the pen” and “jihad of the tongue” (propaganda) and “jihad of the purse” (using your wealth to strive in the path of Allah). “Jihad” is used in the main to describe the struggle to defeat non-Muslims until Islam everywhere dominates, and Muslims rule, everywhere. This “jihad” is so important that it has been called the “sixth pillar of Islam.”
“Such misrepresentation is notably absent when discussing terms related to other faiths like Hinduism, Buddhism, Sikhism, Judaism, and Christianity,” Kabbani writes.
Could that be, ex-Vice President Kabbani, because none of those religions teaches its adherents to wage war on everyone else and subjugate them, as Islam does?
“Terms such as ‘Islamist’ blur the distinction between extremism and the peaceful practices observed by the majority of Muslims, perpetuating anti-Muslim hatred and casting unwarranted suspicion over the entire religion,” the paper emphasizes, failing to acknowledge the academic distinction between “Islamism” as a totalitarian political ideology and “Islam” as a religion.
Actually, there is no real distinction between “Islamism” and “Islam.” Osama bin Laden was a good Muslim. And so were Ayman al-Zawahiri, Abu Musab Al-Zarqawi, Yahya Sinwar, and a host of others who engaged in jihad terrorism. “Islamists” are simply Muslims who take their religion completely to heart, including the duty, whenever possible, to wage violent jihad against the Infidels. From Kabbani’s report again:
“Terms like ‘Islamic terrorism’ inaccurately imply that terrorism is intrinsic to Islam, which is misleading and incorrect,” Kabbani argues. “The atrocities committed by the Third Reich under Adolf Hitler and Fascist Italy under Benito Mussolini, though culturally Christian, are typically described by their political ideologies, not their religious affiliations.”
Neither Hitler nor Mussolini were following the dictates of Christianity when they acted as they did, imposing ruthless totalitarian dictatorships, killing political opponents and, in the case of Hitler, murdering millions of people on racial grounds. Hitler even persecuted the Church until he was able to compel its various leaders to make accords with him; then he postponed the final destruction of Christianity in Germany until after the war. It is therefore proper not to describe either one as a “Christian.” The same is not true for Muslims, who, when they persecute or kill non-Muslims, are following what the Qur’an asks of them. Think only of Qur’an 47:4: “when you meet a kaffir, strike at his neck.” Or recall the dozens of other Qur’anic verses similarly violent, such as 8:12, that says “Strike [the Infidels] upon the necks and strike from them every fingertip.” Or consider Qur’an 98:6, that describes kaffirs as “the most vile of created beings.” A devout Muslim knows how he should treat such people.
And that is why those who engage in such terrorism against non-Muslims are properly described as Muslims.
Huh?!? says
The UK is sad, so sad.
Walter Sieruk says
In the police force of the United Kingdom it would be a good idea to stop using that word “Islamist” . Yet not for the reason that this UK police officer wants that that word no longer used . The a good valid reason be that instead of using the word “Islamist” a better, descriptive term term shoild be used ,which is “Muslim terrorist.”

Muslim Police Officer in UK Wants to End Use of ‘Jihadist’ and ‘Islamist’
………………………………………….
So he is demanding that the UK lie about the threat of Islam to Britain. Will they cave to him?
࿗Infidel࿘ says
You can say that again. In fact, whenever I see the words “islamism” or “islamist”, my immediate question is, “What are the Arabic/Urdu/Turkish/Dari/Pashto” words for “islamism”? One can’t use the word for “islam” in those languages, since they are the ones that are pretending that there is a differ ence. If there is, then there should be different words for them in their languages
As the great islamic scholar Recep Tayyip Erdoğan noted, islam is islam

‘Jihadist’ and ‘Islamist’
Those two wor5ds are hitting a little to close to home. They need to ban them. They all read the same book.
Quinn tells it like it is in Syria
https://youtu.be/4yw8HycLbnM?si=ZihlBG6mZvMj1h2G
That is Syria but it applies to jihadists and islamists everywhere. We could ban jihadist and islamist and get right to the heart of the issue that is behind the push for the banning… It’s muslims and islam, plain and simple.
tgusa says
There is a movie that has been banned in Germany. Citizen Vigilante.
The plot; Citizen Vigilante follows Sanders, an American man who becomes a vigilante to punish criminals and corrupt officials, gaining public support while clashing with Interpol.
Frustrated by the lack of justice for violent crimes, particularly those committed by immigrants, he decides to take the law into his own hands, targeting both criminals and the corrupt officials who protect them.
Uh oh, cant have that! When the corrupt officials lay in bed at night It is their greatest fear.
Since the movies location is Euro land they had to make the Vigilante an American. Otherwise no one would have believed it.

“Neither Hitler nor Mussolini were following the dictates of Christianity when they acted as they did, imposing ruthless totalitarian dictatorships”
Quite so.
It is quite curious that conservatives hardly ever mention the life of Benito Mussolini, because he was profoundly influenced by Socialism. Full name : Benito Amilcare Andrea Mussolini
Mussolini’s father, Alessandro Mussolini, was a blacksmith and socialist. Given his father’s political leanings, Mussolini was named Benito after liberal Mexican president Benito Juárez, while his middle names, were for Italian socialists Amilcare Cipriani and Andrea Costa. Benito’s father, despite having his own business, lived on the margins of the community because of his politics, while Rosa, (his mother, a devout catholic) who taught elementary school children, earned a salary insufficient to compensate for her husband’s lack of income.
At his mother’s request, he entered the Salesian college in Faenza (1892–October 1894), but was transferred after disciplinary problems, including a fight in which he injured a classmate with a knife, resulting in his demotion from the fourth to the second class. In Faenza, Benito experienced an unhappy period marked by corporal punishment from the Salesian friars and frustration over his family’s modest social and economic condition.
With his mother’s assistance, Mussolini continued his studies at the secular Royal Carducci Male Teacher Training School in Forlimpopoli. Although his academic performance was good, he remained resistant to discipline. He was expelled from the boarding school twice: once after a fight in which he used a penknife, and another time for staying out all night. During his years in Forlimpopoli, and under the influence of his father, Mussolini became involved with militant socialism, speaking at evening rallies in nearby towns. In 1900 he joined the Italian Socialist Party.
After graduation, Mussolini applied unsuccessfully for teaching posts in several municipalities, he also sought a position as an assistant substitute to the municipal secretary of Dovia Di Predappio (his birthplace), but was rejected by the moderate faction of the council.
He eventually began teaching at the elementary school in Pieve Saliceto, a hamlet of Gualtieri and the first Italian municipality governed by a socialist administration. After the school year ended, he left Italy on 9 July 1902 and emigrated to Switzerland to avoid compulsory military service; (socialist pacifism, eh ?)
Without work, connections or money, he settled down on July 20 in Lausanne. Living in abject poverty, he was arrested for vagrancy by the police on 24 July under the arches of the Grand-Pont where he spent the night and was kept behind bars for three days. During this time, he studied the ideas of the philosopher Friedrich Nietzsche, sociologist Vilfredo Pareto, and syndicalist Georges Sorel. Mussolini also later credited Charles Péguy and Hubert Lagardelle as influences. (the vast majority of those were socialist thinkers) Sorel’s emphasis on the need for overthrowing decadent liberal democracy and capitalism by the use of violence, direct action, the general strike, and the use of neo-Machiavellian appeals to emotion, impressed Mussolini.
Mussolini became active in the Italian socialist movement in Switzerland, working for the paper L’Avvenire del Lavoratore (The Future of the Worker), organising meetings, giving speeches to workers, and serving as secretary of the Italian workers’ union in Lausanne. In 1903, he was arrested by Bernese police because of his advocacy of a violent general strike, spent two weeks in jail, and was handed over to Italian police. After he was released in Italy, he returned to Switzerland. He was arrested again in Geneva, in April 1904, for falsifying his passport expiration date, and expelled from the canton of Geneva. He was released in Bellinzona following protests from Genevan socialists. Mussolini then returned to Lausanne, where he entered the University of Lausanne’s Department of Social Science on 7 May, attending the lectures of Vilfredo Pareto.
In 1937, when he was prime minister of Italy, the University of Lausanne awarded Mussolini an honorary doctorate.
In December 1904, Mussolini returned to Italy to take advantage of an amnesty for desertion from the military. He had been convicted for this in absentia. Since a condition for being pardoned was serving in the army, he joined the corps of the Bersaglieri in Forlì on 30 December 1904. After serving for two years in the military (January 1905 until September 1906), he returned to teaching.
n February 1909,] Mussolini again left Italy, this time to take the job as the secretary of the labour party in the Italian-speaking city of Trento, part of Austria-Hungary. He also did office work for the local Socialist Party, and edited its newspaper L’Avvenire del Lavoratore (The Future of the Worker). Returning to Italy, he spent time in Milan, and in 1910 returned to his hometown of Forlì, where he edited the weekly Lotta di classe (The Class Struggle).

He read avidly; his favourites in European philosophy included Sorel, the Italian Futurist Filippo Tommaso Marinetti, French Socialist Gustave Hervé, Italian anarchist Errico Malatesta, and German philosophers Friedrich Engels and Karl Marx. During this time, he published Il Trentino veduto da un Socialista (Trentino as viewed by a Socialist) in the radical periodical La Voce. He wrote essays about German literature, some stories, and a novel: L’amante del Cardinale: Claudia Particella, romanzo storico (The Cardinal’s Mistress). This novel he co-wrote with Santi Corvaja, and it was published as a serial in the Trento newspaper Il Popolo from 20 January to 11 May 1910. The novel was bitterly anticlerical, and years later was withdrawn from circulation after Mussolini made a truce with the Vatican.
He had become one of Italy’s most prominent socialists. In September 1911, Mussolini participated in a riot, led by socialists, against the Italian war in Libya. He bitterly denounced Italy’s “imperialist war”, an action that earned him a five-month jail term. After his release, he helped expel Ivanoe Bonomi and Leonida Bissolati from the Socialist Party, as they were two “revisionists” who had supported the war.
In 1912, he became a member of the National Directorate of the Italian Socialist Party (PSI). He was rewarded with the editorship of the party newspaper Avanti! Under his leadership, its circulation rose from 20,000 to 100,000. During this period Mussolini considered himself an “authoritarian communist” and a Marxist and he described Marx as “the greatest of all theorists of socialism”.
During this socialist period of his life, Mussolini sometimes used the pen name “Vero Eretico” (“sincere heretic”) Mussolini rejected egalitarianism a core doctrine of socialism. He was influenced by Nietzsche’s anti-Christian ideas and negation of God’s existence. Mussolini felt that socialism had faltered, in view of the failures of Marxist determinism and social democratic reformism, and believed that Nietzsche’s ideas would strengthen socialism. Mussolini’s writings came to reflect an abandonment of Marxism and egalitarianism in favour of Nietzsche’s übermensch concept and anti-egalitarianism. (so he still considered himself a socialist)
When World War I began in August 1914, many socialist parties worldwide followed the rising nationalist current and supported their country’s intervention in the war. In Italy, the war created a surge of Italian nationalism and intervention was supported by a variety of political factions. Italian socialists were divided on whether to support the war. (which alo reflected splits in French and German socialist movements during the First World War) The Italian Socialist Party decided to oppose the war after anti-militarist protestors had been killed, resulting in a general strike called Red Week.
Mussolini initially held official support for the party’s decision and, in an August 1914 article, Mussolini wrote: “Down with the War. We remain neutral.”
However, he saw the war as an opportunity for his ambitions, as well as those of socialists and Italians. He was influenced by anti-Austrian Italian nationalist sentiments, believing that the war offered Italians in Austria-Hungary the chance to liberate themselves from rule of the Habsburgs. He eventually decided to declare support for the war by appealing to the need for socialists to overthrow the Hohenzollern and Habsburg monarchies in Germany and Austria-Hungary who he said had consistently repressed socialism. (essentially, he sought to instigate a cross-border socialist revolt of Italian minorities in Austria-Hungary against “imperialism”, including German “imperialism”)
Mussolini further justified his position by denouncing the Central Powers for being reactionary powers; for pursuing imperialist designs against Belgium and Serbia as well as historically against Denmark, France, and against Italians, since hundreds of thousands of Italians were under Habsburg rule. He argued that the fall of Hohenzollern and Habsburg monarchies and repression of “reactionary” Turkey would create conditions beneficial for the working class, and that the mobilisation required would undermine Russia’s reactionary authoritarianism and bring Russia to social revolution. He said that for Italy the war would complete the process of Risorgimento by uniting the Italians in Austria-Hungary into Italy, and allowing the common people of Italy to be participating members in what would be Italy’s first national war. Thus he claimed that the vast social changes that the war could offer meant that it should be supported as a revolutionary war.
As Mussolini’s support for the intervention solidified, he came into conflict with socialists who opposed the war. He attacked them and claimed those proletarians who supported pacifism were out of step with the proletarians who had joined the rising interventionist vanguard that was preparing Italy for a revolutionary war. He began to criticise the Italian Socialist Party and socialism itself for having failed to recognise the national problems that had led to the outbreak of the war. He was then accused of moral and political unworthiness and was subsequently expelled from the party.
(it’s quite clear that Mussolini had turned into a staunch internationalist socialist activist at this point)
After being ousted from the Italian Socialist Party, Mussolini made a sudden and radical transformation, ending his support for socialism and class conflict, and supporting revolutionary nationalism transcending class lines. (essentially he carried a grudge at this point towards anyone in the socialist party who would not follow his internationalist socialist ideas)
He formed the interventionist newspaper Il Popolo d’Italia and the Fascio Rivoluzionario d’Azione Internazionalista (“Revolutionary Fasces of International Action”) in October 1914. The funds to create Il Popolo d’Italia came from many sources, including domestic industrial and agrarian interests, such as the engineering giants Fiat and Ansaldo, and the governments of France and Britain.
On 5 December 1914, Mussolini denounced orthodox socialism for failing to recognise that the war had made national identity and loyalty more significant than class distinction.[(a U-turn grounded in his frustration of being ousted from the socialist party)
Mussolini continued to promote the need of a revolutionary vanguard elite to lead society. He no longer advocated a proletarian vanguard, but instead a vanguard led by dynamic and revolutionary people of any social class of unity through nationality.
Though he denounced orthodox socialism and class conflict, he maintained at the time that he was a nationalist socialist and supporter of the legacy of nationalist socialists in Italy’s history, such as Giuseppe Garibaldi, Giuseppe Mazzini, and Carlo Pisacane. As for the Italian Socialist Party and its support of orthodox socialism, he claimed that his failure as a member to revitalise and transform it to recognise contemporary reality revealed the hopelessness of orthodox socialism as outdated.
This perception of the failure of orthodox socialism in the light of the outbreak of World War I was not solely held by Mussolini; other pro-interventionist Italian socialists such as Filippo Corridoni and Sergio Panunzio had denounced classical Marxism in favour of intervention. (Socialist isolationism vs Socialist internationalist interventionism)
These basic political views and principles formed the basis of Mussolini’s newly formed political movement, the Fasci d’Azione Rivoluzionaria in 1914, who called themselves Fascisti (Fascists). At this time, the Fascists did not have an integrated set of policies and the movement was small, ineffective in its attempts to hold mass meetings, and regularly harassed by government authorities and orthodox socialists. Antagonism between the interventionists versus the anti-interventionist orthodox socialists resulted in violence between the Fascists and socialists. These early hostilities shaped Mussolini’s conception of the nature of Fascism in its support of political violence.
When World War I started, Mussolini, like many Italian nationalists, volunteered to fight. He was turned down because of his radical Socialism and told to wait for his reserve call up. (carefully consider the idea that he was branded “too socialist” initially by the authorities in 1914 to send him into battle !!!)
So he served in this war and then returned to politics. And the rest is history.
Conclusion : Mussolini’s political life carries all the hallmarks of Revolutionary Internationalist Socialism, initially. In fact, you can conclude that Mussolini started to develop into a national-socialist !
If he were alive today, he may just as well have been a crazed lefty woke idiot !!!
