David Bukay has an article in the Summer 2009 edition of the Middle East Quarterly.
Bukay takes an intellectual stroll with the end game being Islam is totally incompatible with Western Society. Then Bukay turns up the burner by demonstrating that Islam is in no way compatible with the Western concept of Democracy.
Bukay even pits the differences between Islam (so-called moderate) and Islamism. Bukay points out that Islam is becoming the uniting force at least among Middle Eastern Muslims to the extent that the very old concept of Pan-Arabism is nearly a dead ideology.
Muslims are finding there heroes among the Islamists that promote an international Caliphate for Islam. The Caliphate ideal is a concept that stretches beyond the Arab Middle East. Thus Islamism is gaining footholds in place like Turkey founded after the ashes of the collapse of the Ottoman Empire at the end of WWI. Ataturk purposely founded a Turkish secular government abolish the vestiges of the Caliphate that existed in the defunct Ottoman Empire.
The largest Muslim nation in the world is Indonesia. The pan-Islam ideology is awakening Indonesians who Asian rather than Arab to bump against the secular regime in Indonesia.
Bukay further notes that nations where old fashioned despots are the leadership predominantly only do so because the military backs the despot. He sites Saudi Arabia and Egypt to name a few which would have succumb to Islamism long ago if it were not for the power of military might.
Something you should think about after reading Bukay’s analysis. It has been said that the percentage of Islamists in the world represents 10% of global Islam. Let’s say that as of 2009 there are 2.4 BILLION Muslims globally. Ten percent would be 240 MILLION Islamists world wide.
Now that 240 MILLION is a huge chunk of people. Now imagine this: according to my interpretation of Dr. Bukay’s article; that would mean there 2.16 BILLION Muslims who predominantly look up to the agenda to activist Islamists.

It is unbelievable that there are non-Mohammedans in the West that justify Islamism and revise history to delude the public via the trusted moniker of “Academics.”
You have got to read how this moron John Esposito is the Goebbels propagandist for the moneyed Mohammedan Middle East influenced by Wahhabism.

Well I am still trying to catch up on my e-newsletter reading. I am a bit behind.
I just finished reading a Political Islam e-newsletter posted by Bill Warner; however the essay is by Dr. David Bukay (Ph. D.), a teacher of Political Science at the University of Haifa in Israel.
I’ll let Bill Warner continue the introduction of Dr. Bukay.
Dr. Bukay’s theme is the Mohammedan concept of “Abrogation.” I was enthralled by the reading because the essay has brought further clarity about the Mohammedan propaganda that Mohammedanism is a religion of peace. Dr. Bukay is specific on how the “Abrogation” doctrine in Mohammedanism demonstrates that Mohammedans that tell Westerners that “Jihad” is an inner struggle for peace and not an outer violent struggle to violently spread Mohammedanism to the Kafir (infidels) or enslave them or kill them.
When I read this essay I thought of a clear difference between Mohammedanism and Christianity. That difference being Mohammedans “Abrogate” certain (considered) holy writings to abrogate other holy writings. I’ll allow Dr. Bukay to enlighten you on the specifics which he does way better than I could.
Being a Christian Right kind of guy this Biblical Scripture leaped into my mind:
Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, today and forever. (Hebrews 13: 8 NKJV)
From a Christian Trinitarian perspective is three persons in ONE GOD. Much like a human being is a spirit that has a soul (mental faculties of emotions) and lives in a body: that existence is a three in one proposition.
Keep that in the back of your mind when you read this essay on “Abrogation” or when a Mohammedan might try and tell you his “Allah” is just as never changing and thus the same as the Christian God.
One more thing: This essay is lengthy. Take your time to read it. You might to come back to it two or three times to finish it. The post is so long that I believe Political Islam poster Bill Warner’s Blog could not handle the entirety of the post. The post is incomplete at the link I will provide. Now the e-newsletter has the entirety of Dr. Busay’s essay which I hope my blog can fit all in one post.
POST CHANGE OF PLANS: I did manage to post Dr. Busay's entire essay on my SlantRight blog. The essay is right after this same post. Follow the link and prepare to be enlightened about the true nature of Islam.
