Islam 101
This Islam 101 short course highlights the fundamentals of Islam and will help the knowledgeable to accurately convey the facts of history… and the news of today.
To even begin to have a discussion about how to defy Islamic supremacism by political... legal... educational... cultural... terrorism, we should have at least a basic understanding of Islam itself.
Become educated about the Muslim world view...
... develop your own informed response and join the 21st Century struggle ("jihad" means struggle) against the Muslim "3rd Jihad" that is politically and violently struggling against the rational and sensible non-Islamic world.
Christian... Jew... Buddhist... Hindu... Humanist... Atheist... etc., this is the world that NEVER will be submissive to the Muslim god Allah and his self-proclaimed prophet, Mohammad... who claimed to receive his visions and messages directly from the angel Gabriel.

Islam 101 is meant as an educational tool for people to become better educated about the fundamentals of Islam and to help the more knowledgeable better convey the facts to others.
Similarly, my book and documentary are meant to serve as concise explanations of the major moving parts of Islam and their implications for Western society.
Islam 101 is a condensation of the book and documentary with the aim of lending clarity to the public understanding of Islam and of exposing the inadequacy of prevailing views.
