Even more amazing is that this hasn&#8217;t been published long before now.<\/p>\n<p>\tCHURCHILL ON ISLAM Unbelievable, but the speech below was written in 1899.<\/p>\n<p>\t(Check Wikipedia &#8211; The River War). The attached short speech from Winston Churchill, was delivered<br \/>\n\tby him in 1899 when he was a young soldier and journalist. It probably sets out the current views of many,<br \/>\n\tbut expresses in the wonderful Churchillian turn of phrase and use of the English language,<br \/>\n\tof which he was a past master. Sir Winston Churchill was, without doubt, one of the greatest men of the late<br \/>\n\t19th and 20th centuries. He was a brave young soldier, a brilliant journalist, an extraordinary politician and<br \/>\n\tstatesman, a great war leader and British Prime Minister, to whom the Western world must be forever in his debt.<br \/>\n\tHe was a prophet in his own time. He died on 24th January 1965, at the grand old age of 90 and,<br \/>\n\tafter a lifetime of service to his country, was accorded a State funeral.<\/p>\n<p>\tHERE IS THE SPEECH:<\/p>\n<p>\t&quot;How dreadful are the curses which Mohammedanism lays on its votaries! Besides the fanatical frenzy,<br \/>\n\twhich is as dangerous in a man as hydrophobia in a dog, there is this fearful fatalistic apathy.<br \/>\n\tThe effects are apparent in many countries, improvident habits, slovenly systems of agriculture,<br \/>\n\tsluggish methods of commerce, and insecurity of property exist wherever the followers of the<br \/>\n\tProphet rule or live. A degraded sensualism deprives this life of its grace and refinement,<br \/>\n\tthe next of its dignity and sanctity.<\/p>\n<p>\tThe fact that in Mohammedan law every woman must belong to some man as his absolute property,<br \/>\n\teither as a child, a wife, or a concubine, must delay the final extinction of slavery until the faith of Islam<br \/>\n\thas ceased to be a great power among men. Individual Moslems may show splendid qualities. Thousands become the brave and loyal soldiers of the Queen; all know how to die; but the influence of the religion paralyses the social development of those who follow it.<\/p>\n<p>\tNo stronger retrograde force exists in the world. Far from being moribund, Mohammedanism is a militant<br \/>\n\tand proselytizing faith. It has already spread throughout Central Africa, raising fearless warriors at every step;<br \/>\n\tand were it not that Christianity is sheltered in the strong arms of science, the science against which it had<br \/>\n\tvainly struggled, the civilization of modern Europe might fall, as fell the civilization of ancient Rome.&quot;<\/p>\n<p>\tSir Winston Churchill; (Source: The River War, first edition, Vol II, pages 248-250 London).<br \/>\n\tChurchill saw it coming.<\/p>\n<hr>\n<h3>Replies:<\/h3>\n<div class=\"migrated-reply\" style=\"border: 1px solid #eee;padding: 15px;margin-bottom: 15px;border-radius: 5px\">\n<p><strong>Posted by:<\/strong> Mr Finesse on January 23, 2015, 10:18 pm<\/p>\n<div>the world we live in today is in big trouble.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"migrated-reply\" style=\"border: 1px solid #eee;padding: 15px;margin-bottom: 15px;border-radius: 5px\">\n<p><strong>Posted by:<\/strong> Dr Crapology on January 26, 2015, 9:22 pm<\/p>\n<div>It is my humble opinion that we will be fighting these terrorists&#8211;there is not a better word for these people&#8212;for ever if we don&#8217;t take some extreme measures to eliminate them.
