If you want to know the global equation for the relationship between Muslims and the West, read this article by the new British Prime Minister Keir Starmer!!
• A very important article, as it’s the confessions of the leader of the Labor Party and the new British Prime Minister Keir Starmer, so it must be read very carefully to know how the liberal and modern Western leaders think about dealing with Arabs and Muslims (since the outbreak of the Al-Aqsa Flood) at least, please do not neglect to read this important and dangerous article published by the prestigious British newspaper The Sun.
– Starmer says:
We must be honest with ourselves, and clear at the same time about our relationship with the Arab and Islamic world and tell the truth to our children so that we do not clash with them one day, or that they feel intellectual turmoil and psychological contradiction syndrome, between their belief in liberal values and the needs of our national security, whose contradictions have been increased by the cognitive revolution, information technology and cross-continental means of communication.
Our differences are not really with the Islamic peoples or the ruling regimes, because the regimes revolve around us and derive their survival from us, and implement our policies that serve Western national security first, regardless of their national security.
So where does the reality of the crisis lie in our relations with the Islamic world as a whole and the Arab world as the center of this world?
Our real problem lies with (Islam itself and with Muhammad, the Prophet of Islam himself) because it is a civilized religion that has detailed answers to all existential and civilizational questions, and it is a stubborn competitor to Western civilization, which has begun to lose its brilliance, while Islam and Muhammad are becoming increasingly brilliant even within our European societies, which liberal values have allowed freedom of thought and weakened the authority of the Church, and this free and abstract thinking has led many elites and youth to embrace Islam, because they found in it all the answers to their psychological, spiritual, existential and social needs that our contradictory civilization has drowned them in.
Our real problem is with Islam itself and will remain so because we have no choice but to confront the Islamic flow and Islamic thought in all ways, because the other choice is to acknowledge that Islam is the true religion of God and the religion of Jesus and all the prophets, and this will lead us to embrace it, so that we may reach the kingdom of God in this world and the afterlife. This will take us back to square one in the conflicts of religion and state in Christian thought, although there is a vast difference between Islam and Christianity on these issues.
We have no choice but to resist Islam, even if this leads to our countries and institutions abandoning liberal values. We must enact laws that push Muslims to leave Europe. Sweden is an example, which imposes homosexuality, perversion, and atheism laws. This is what most prompts Muslims to leave Europe or assimilate into its civilization and lose their faith in Islam. We must also prevent immigration from the Islamic world to Europe and America, even in cooperation with Islamic countries, and open the way for the immigration of non-Muslim peoples.
On the other hand, we must continue to support Israel, no matter how harsh its measures are, so that it does not allow the establishment of a nucleus for an Islamic regime in Gaza that encourages Islamic peoples to follow its example. In this regard, it is possible to benefit from the great support that Israel enjoys from Arab countries, which fear the establishment of any Islamic or democratic regime. This is a third important point, which is supporting Arab regimes, their institutions, armies, and various agencies that prevent the establishment of any regime that derives its values from the teachings of Muhammad and his holy book.
It does not matter whether what we are doing is wrong or invalid or legitimate or illegitimate, this is a matter that must be settled and we must work on it and through it. We are facing a major challenge between our liberal values and our national security, which are now two contradictory values, and the Islamic momentum emanating from everywhere in the world as if it were water vapor that we do not know where the sun rose from. We must not test the correctness and incorrectness of Islamic values because that may lead most of us to Islam and the religious values of Muhammad. At the same time, there is a need for doses of Christianity, but in a controlled manner that does not affect the achievements of Western civilization, with the aim of limiting the penetration of Islam into our lands.
We are now between contradictory and frightening options because continuing with our liberal options makes us lose immunity from the Islamic invasion, and returning to the church destroys our liberal values and affects our civilizational achievements. Generations have grown up in the West who do not believe in Christ and will not be able to return to the church after the winds of unlimited openness.
What I fear is that in the future we will have no choice but to push towards a major war that will limit freedoms, disrupt public life, ignite endless wars in Islamic countries, and deprive Islam of the climate of peace through which it can expand.
Unless we address this, mosques and minarets will fill Europe, and Islamists will control parliamentary seats, public opinion, and the economy in any European election, and then rule Europe with the teachings of Islam.
