Dhimmitude is the status that Islamic law, the Sharia, mandates for non-Muslims, primarily Jews and Christians. Dhimmis, "protected people," are free to practice their religion in a Sharia regime, but are made subject to a number of humiliating regulations designed to enforce the Qur'an's command that they "feel themselves subdued" (Sura 9:29). This denial of equality of rights and dignity remains part of the Sharia, and, as such, is part of the law that global jihadists are laboring to impose everywhere, ultimately on the entire human race.

The dhimmi attitude of chastened subservience has entered into Western academic study of Islam, and from there into journalism, textbooks, and the popular discourse. One must not point out the depredations of jihad and dhimmitude; to do so would offend the multiculturalist ethos that prevails everywhere today.

One thing dhimmitude requires is that all non-Muslims under Sharia pay an extra tax to Allah among other things.

So what you are saying is that some Muslims wish to see Sharia Law instituted across the world? If so, we are in agreement on that point. The Muslims who so wish are the Islamists, the militaristic fundies which make up a tiny fraction of all people of the Islam faith. They make up probably as great a proportion of the Muslim population and represent Islam probably as much as the Creationist do Christianity.
If the most powerful Muslim clerics are saying 'jihad" and institute Sharia then there is a problem isn't there? Well you tell me if they are tiny numbers of "militaristic fundies". I keep hearing from the Liberals that we create more and more terrorists everyday. So is it a tiny number or not?

Except Creationists arent going around beheading anyone. Agreed?
