The Nerve Center for Serious Islam Watchers

The mass media are totally failing the public when it comes to information on the resurgence of the ancient evil of Islam with its jihad and Sharia. Good news. This is the ONLY place you need to go, the top-level blog of links from all Islam-watching blogs and media. The story painted by the PC media falls apart here, but it takes serious effort to dispel your cloud of ignorance. If we could get 100,000 serious Islam watchers following this blog daily, we could change the world. Please do your part, and spread the word if you care about the future of you know what.

"Millions of modern people of the white civilization - that is, the civilization of Europe and America - have forgotten all about Islam. They have never come in contact with it. They take for granted that it is decaying, and that, anyway, it is just a foreign religion which will not concern them. It is, as a fact, the most formidable and persistent enemy which our civilization has had, and may at any moment become as large a menace in the future as it has been in the past." -Hilaire Belloc (1870-1953), "The Great Heresies", 1938

An Introduction

T.L. Winslow (TLW), headmaster of the Historyscoper (tm) Online World History School. Nobody reads more articles daily than TLW, AKA the Sponge (tm), the original Who Wants to Be a Millionaire, only of knowledge not money, a professional pansophist, the man who knows more than everybody, that's me in the corner, that's me in the spotlight losing my religion, I have an opinion on everything. The world's smartest and most serious flock to TLW, everyone else gets left behind. If you have a brain and want to fill it with knowledge, you're in the right place. Quit friending somebody on Facebook and spend quality learning time with TLW.

Why This is the #1 Blog for Islam Watchers

" Strange times are these, in which we live, forsooth; When young and old are taught in Falsehood's school:– And the man who dares to tell the truth, Is called at once a lunatic and fool." - George Francis Train (1829-1904)

"In their collective state, the Borg are utterly without mercy; driven by one will alone: the will to conquer. They are beyond redemption, beyond reason." - Capt. Jean-Luc Picard of the USS Enterprise

World events whirl by at jet speed. This is the #1 place to come daily to keep up on global Islam, with daily links to op-eds and articles on all sides of the issue. You can lead a horse to water, but can you make it drink? This is THE PLACE. No matter who you are, a journalist, politician, celebrity, blogger, academic, official, even a president or prime minister or king, you're not really serious if you don't. It's the eagle's eyrie, where only the intellectually elite can fly and perch, while millions who could come here with a click won't because they can't handle it raw. That goes for Muslims too, yes, I sometimes get more hits from the Muslim world than from the non-Muslim one.

Why is this blog #1? Not in viewer numbers, only the few can stand this much knowledge without busting their brain. #1 in viewer quality. First, TLW has a list of 500+ blogs he consults daily, who Da Man. It's the reader blog, concentrating posts from the feeder blogs. Second, because it doesn't edit or censor anything, but gives it all to you via direct links, and lets you read, evaluate, and think for yourself. Unlike other blogs, it doesn't try to condense or water-down the news in summary articles, but instead tries to link to everything of interest on all sides, repetitions excepted, to create a master reading list for those who want to absorb everything with the least work. Once in awhile TLW posts comments to blog articles, or links to his own articles.

And it's one-stop shopping. Why fill your mailbox daily with emails from umpteen blogs when you can just get this one that contains far more than all the others put together because of the Historyscoper's huge reach? In short, if you're smart and serious you have no other choice.

Most importantly, TLW is a totally independent and free agent, owned by nobody. He hates censorship and wants his readers to see all sides and make up their own minds, like he did. He isn't anti-Islam because he thinks the truth is held by the Roman Catholics, Christian evangelicals, Jews, atheists, or any other org., but because his accumulated knowledge tells him it's a lie, which doesn't stop him from reading and posting links to all worthwhile pro-Islamic material he can get, he never thinks he knows so much that he can afford to close his mind to new info. Yes, Islam is a lie, but chances are TLW also considers your favorite pet ideology a lie, and will tell you why if you want to listen. If your mind is closed and you can't stand TLW's heat stay out of his kitchen.

Use all this cool free knowledge to influence public opinion via blogs, op-eds, letters, publications, and videos, it's your main source, try the search function.

Being the World's Greatest Genius (tm) gives TLW the mental horsepower to run this eagle's nest blog solo, he'll never hire employees because he must read each article first, so if you're one of the lucky few who surfed here once, maybe you'll be one of the yet fewer really smart people who visit here daily. The so-called experts on Islam who don't are going to be left behind by you who do, sorry, I run the #1 online university for Islam watchers, right here.

Islam stinks, and it's easy to criticize it, and even make a career doing so, but that doesn't make one's other views worth spit. In particular, ROBERT SPENCER (Catholic) AND PAMELA GELLER (Jewish) think they were appointed and won't plug or even mention other blogs on theirs, clearly intending to squeeze them out and create their own monopoly. Leaders of a movement of any kind they are not, except in a bad way. Never fear, nobody owns the Internet, and when their readers figure it out, they too shall pass, especially because they're clearly only in it for the money, how 'bout them nice speaking tours and them ridiculous bus ads that waste money that could be used to reward other Islam watcher blogs, but are clearly for only one purpose, to generate controversy to get them speaking fees. Not satisfied to found an org. called Stop Islamization of America, they tried to trademark the name like they own the words. They're not on our team or your team, they're on their own team. I don't recommend that you contribute any money to them, they've outlived their usefulness. Donate to moi instead, the only person who is truly devoted to the truth and to free speech. They stink up the cause of fighting Islam like Mad Mary O'Hara (Madalyn Murray O'Hair) did the cause of American Atheism before she was murdered.

I represent America and defend its core constitutional values, not some puppetmaster's. I am not just non-religious, I'm anti-religious, just like the key Founding Fathers. Sure, we allow religious freedom, but only under watchdog control. Jews and Catholics did little to support the Founding Fathers back then unless there was something in it for them, and it is a credit to the Founding Fathers that they allowed them to even tag along when their loyalties were divided; e.g., in 1588, less than 200 years before 1776, the Catholics tried to invade England and extirpate Protestantism by bloody murder, while most Jews liked living in the Muslim Ottoman Empire or America's enemy Britain, and those few in America loved to set up closed communities where Jewish Kosher law not American ruled, although they at least didn't try to spread it by jihad like Muslims do. At least both groups mellowed out over 2 centuries, but now with the rising Islam threat, that doesn't make us forget their past.

As to S&G, they do not appear to even visit this blog occasionally, what maroons, the blind leading the blind, good news, you'll know more than them every day of the week. And they're outright frauds, claiming to champion American free speech, when for years Spencer's blog has banned me from posting, and since May 26, 2015 so does Geller's. Nobody who bans a person from posting, as opposed to deleting individual posts, and then only because they're forced to by the govt., is a champion of free speech, but is an enemy of it, deserving of no support or association. It's no mystery either. All of Spencer's anti-Islam work is suspect as the work of a Catholic front who wants to bring the Dark Ages laws stifling of free speech back, while Geller is transparently an Israeli front posing as a red-white-blue American while wanting free speech only for Jews in America. While I support Israel I don't want its constitution to become ours, sorry. In short, S&G are phonies. Neither of them represent the legacy of George Washington, but only want to wrap themselves in its image to sucker dopes into helping them defend alien interests. They and anybody who ever worked for them is banned from association with me or my orgs. When they did it to me they did it to themselves, it's my policy, sorry. I'm the real deal, they stink. If you don't like me for this, tell me and I'll ban you too.

Speaking of Islam watchers, if you run a blog that's linked to here, how about telling your readers about it, preferably in your masthead? I do everything I can to promote you already, don't I? When you give me a plug you help yourself. No, I don't want to evolve into another P&G, but want us all to prosper together and unite behind my Winslow Plan. One day we might actually have a democratic membership society which elects its leaders for fixed terms.

Regular readers: Just think. What would you do without this blog? How to donate? If you want to flip me a quarter, just click an advertisement. To donate more, there's a Paypal button at the end of the page. The donations must have no strings attached. Not that I really need to be making life so easy for you. It helps you for me to run this blog more than it does me. Despite running an online world history school that invites everybody to try despite long odds of success, TLW is currently the world's only Historyscoper (tm), it's lonely at the top, and since you can't be here with me you can send me money and hope I stick around. I don't live for money, I live for knowledge, but I'll take all the money I can get, so be generous, I'm not a disembodied brain, papa needs a new pair of shoes. BTW, why not tip the blogs I regularly link to if you like them, they're the lifeblood I'm just the heart pumping them to you and the brain organizing it.

I'm sorry if you can't handle the reading load here, but with me it's no sweat. This blog of blogs on Islam is merely my reading list on this one subject, check out my 20+ other blogs. The way I work is that I post each link after sponging it into my giant brain. If you can't keep up with me you can at least try your best, at least you know where to catch up with what you missed. So what if you're a zillion posts behind, at least you can get ahead of your next-door neighbor here. Never fear, I help by digesting the material and producing awesome astounding Historyscopes (tm) on my main Web site Historyscoper.com. Of course, they'll strain your brain, but that's nice because if it doesn't bust it'll grow. Your lack of mental power is your problem, not mine. I have no problems. I teach to all who can benefit from it. Who can replace me?

Have an article you think TLW should read, or a blog to add to his blog list? After searching to make sure it hasn't been posted, email the url to my Historyscoper account on gmail with msg title "HISTORYSCOPER/ISLAM WATCH BLOG" in caps. If you have a new blog you want me to plug, tell me please.

Oh yes. Is TLW leftist, rightist, or what? He's above all that, he's TLW, so awesome he talks about himself in the third person :)

NB: TLW is 100% for the Jewish State of Israel, which doesn't make him Israeli though, he's American first, but his knowledge of history tells him that Jews have a historical right to their own state with capital in Jerusalem, and that bucking them is suicide. There's only 13.7 million Jews, so why can't the 300 million Arabs make room for poor outnumbered surrounded Israel and leave it alone? Answer: ISLAM, which teaches Muslims to wage eternal jihad no matter how futile and bloody. The answer is for Muslims to chuck the Quran and Allah and forget Muhammad and clear out from the Nile to the Euphrates and let the Jewish State of Israel lead them back into the human race.

BIG NOTE: Don't rely on my Twitter or other feeds to keep up on all the posts here, they only provide spotty coverage, and combine posts from my numerous other blogs. For maximum benefit load the home page in your browser in a permanent tab and refresh it every hour or oftener. It's like sitting in the eagle's eyrie, like no other blog can give you.

My blog mainly links to posts by others, giving them a stage. But there's something that my sole creation, and nobody else can share the credit: my little old Winslow Plan.

No matter how bad the Muslim World gets, there's always a plan on the table for Islam's ultimate defeat, my Winslow Plan for Defeating Islam. How much blood will have to be spilled before the non-Muslim world wakes up and gets behind it? Yes, it's drastic, because it's war, and it assumes that all the ineffectual diplomatic solutions have finally been scrapped and we have the will to win at all costs. I'm not proposing it lightly, but my mind tells me that it's the only solution based on the truth. Read it now: The Winslow Plan for Defeating Islam Forever

I will throw terror into the hearts of those who disbelieve. You may smite their necks, and you may strike even every finger.” Koran 8:12 “Muslims must muster all weapons to terrorize the infidels.” Koran 8:60

75 Years Ago He Saw It Coming

Quotes from Hilaire Belloc (1870-1953), The Great Heresies (1938):

"Islam is apparently unconvertible. The missionary efforts made by great Catholic orders which have been occupied in trying to turn Mohammedans into Christians for nearly 400 years have everywhere wholly failed. We have in some places driven the Mohammedan master out and freed his Christian subjects from Mohammedan control, but we have had hardly any effect in converting individual Mohammedans."

"Will not perhaps the temporal power of Islam return and with it the menace of an armed Mohammedan world, which will shake off the domination of Europeans - still nominally Christian - and reappear as the prime enemy of our civilization? The future always comes as a surprise, but political wisdom consists in attempting at least some partial judgment of what that surprise may be. And for my part I cannot but believe that a main unexpected thing of the future is the return of Islam."

"There is no reason why its recent inferiority in mechanical construction, whether military or civilian, should continue indefinitely. Even a slight accession of material power would make the further control of Islam by an alien culture difficult. A little more and there will cease that which our time has taken for granted, the physical domination of Islam by the disintegrated Christendom we know."
