Lt Col Allen West tells it like it is.; ...this is not a perversion: they are doing exactly what this book says.

Lt Col Allen West speaks out on the Islamist ‘perversion of Islam’

When you're asked an awkward question, you can either distract and deflect as the politician does; you can ruminate and reflect as the philosopher does; you can equivocate and obfuscate as the diplomat does.

Or you can answer the question explicitly and directly, as the soldier does.

When asked about the Islamist terrorists’ 'perversion of the religion of Islam', Lt Col Allen West replies:

Let me say this. I don’t care about being popular – whatever. The first thing you’ve got to do is you’ve got to study and understand who you’re up against. And you must realise that this is not a religion that you’re fighting against: you’re fighting against a theo-political belief system and construct; you’re fighting against something that has been doing this thing since AD 622 – since the seventh century, 1388 years.

You want to dig up Charles Martel and ask him why he was fighting the Muslim army at the Battle of Tours in 732; you want to ask the Venetian fleet at Lepanto why they were fighting a Muslim fleet in 1571; you want to ask the Christian – I mean the Germanic and Austrian knights why they were fighting at the Gates of Vienna in 1683; you want to ask people why they fought at Constantinople and why today it’s called Istanbul because they lost that fight in 1453.

You need to get into the Qur’an: you need to understand their precepts; you need to read the Sira; you need to read the Hadith, and then you can really understand that this is not a perversion: they are doing exactly what this book says.

I want to close by saying this. And I think we have said this all through this morning so far. Until you get principled leadership in the United States of America that is willing to say that, we will continue to chase our tail because we will never clearly define who this enemy is, and then understand their goals and objectives which is on any jihadist website, and then come up with the right and proper goals and objectives to not only secure our Republic, but to secure Western civilisation.


Lt Col Allen West is the third of four generations in his family to serve in the military. He retired from the US Army in 2004 and is the first African-American Republican Congressman from Florida since a former slave served two terms in the 1870s.

It remains to be seen if the soldier’s perspicuity will survive a term in Congress.

Debate is within the halls of power, good post mate.

There wil come a point in time when the moderates will become more dangerous to us than the extremists.

Alan West is very highly regarded by very many people in the States and these same people naturally would like to see him as president.

Certainly a career path to watch as he is gaining a lot of support. ^_^

If the press are reading this yes, I am white and I would vote for Alan West because I like his style, I am in the EDL, so I guess I am not racist, shock horror lol. NS

i have utmost respect for alan west, and i have always said, he should had been America's first black president, not obama ...

He got into congress i believe, so things are moving in the right direction from him politically, would be good to see if he would take up the challenge to be the party's presidential candidate , but i have a feeling sara palin will do this ....

I met him a year ago when he came to Israel on a private security tour. When he's not talking about Islam he speaks very well about a hard work ethic and self sufficiency and the way than welfare handouts and the left wing have destroyed urban blacks in America and he's absolutely right. 2012 would be too soon, but watch for him, he can be a great man.
Brian of London has been actively occupying a very small slice of hideously over-occupied Tel Aviv since early 2009.


Islam is a giant bungee cord tying it's adherents to the 7th century.
They can pull themselves almost to the twenty first century but eventually the cord tightens and flings them back.
