Submit, convert or die, that is the inescapable and undeniable mantra of radical Islam. This credo, by which these radicals live, however, is not a new one, it could have been heard 800 years ago just as easily as last week. Radical Islam’s ruthless desire to conquer all is well documented. From the moment this faith emerged on the world stage, radical practitioners have taken up the sword of conquest, seeking to lay waste to all those who oppose them wherever they may be. Throughout history, Islam has not been spread by the acts and deeds of missionaries but under threat of death and destruction. Around the world, signs of a global assault are readily apparent.

In Nigeria, Kenya and Sudan Christians are slaughtered. In Thailand Buddhists monks and school teachers are butchered. In India Hindu temples are sacked and politicians murdered. In Indonesia school girls have been beheaded. In the Philippines tourists are kidnapped. In Australia lifeguards are attacked. In France rioting leaves homes and businesses in disrepair. In Britain and Spain trains are bombed. In Russia schools are riddled with bullets. In Latin America synagogues are attacked. In Germany cemeteries have been desecrated and in the Netherlands film makers murdered. Each day the list grows longer and more traumatic.

Perhaps no one has been more vocal about the reality of radical Islam than Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, Iran’s fiery new president. Since taking office last summer Ahmadinejad has made a name for himself as the defacto spokesperson for Islam’s radical elements. He has resumed Iran’s nuclear efforts, thumbing his nose at the paltry and dish watery efforts of the EU3. He has dismissed the Holocaust as the stuff of fantasy and he has openly called for the annihilation of Israel. Most recently Mahmoud Ahmadinejad made it clear to an audience of theological students that Islam is destined to “rule the world” and Islam must prepare for this inevitable reality.

According to Ahmadinejad, Islam should not be restricted to a particular region or ethic group, but it is Islam’s place to spread globally, encompassing all the people of the world. Quite conceivably, some would prefer suicide to such a fate, though this would serve only to please the likes of Ahmadinejad and the radical mullahs of Tehran. As telling as the Iranian presidents words maybe, he isn’t the first. Islamic scholars from London to Cairo have made it clear that the world is divided in to two parts: the Islamic world and the as yet to be conquered Muslim world. Perhaps we can take solace in the fact that we, as the soon to be conquered, have a choice: submit, convert or die. As Sheikh Usama bin Akhmed, a professor at Drexel University, noted, “Of course it goes without saying that soon all shall be forced to convert to our religion and follow our beliefs.”
