 The “Aliens” and “Green Apples” AnalogiesHere’s a Facebook reel from Nathan Fang, using an “aliens from outer space” analogy. If aliens landed on Earth and began to harm us, Fang is convinced that “alien’s rights activists” would crop up shortly, advocating for the aliens and their right to remain.There’s also a conservative gentleman in the UK who’s of Russian descent (I think, judging from his name) who did a Facebook reel on the following analogy: We have green apples, red apples, and yellow apples, just as we have Muslims, Christians, and Jews. But what if a tiny percentage of green apples were extremely toxic, and will kill whomever eats them. Would we have people insisting that green apples deserve to stay on the grocery shelf, for the sake of diversity?Would we have scientists monitoring all the green apples carefully, developing some sort of hideously expensive system that detects which ones are toxic, at incredible expense (think of an America bristling with security cameras and traffic cams, like the quills on a porcupine — costing us not only tax dollars, but much of our privacy)?No, we wouldn’t. We’d have the FDA banning green apples from our grocery stores.

The  “Neighbor” AnalogyThe relationship between Islam and the West has been very much like that of a woman with a new, male neighbor. The following analogy will be condemned as collective punishment, as certainly, there are good Muslims in the world. But they have roughly 50 countries of their own, and they should stay there and make the best of what they have there.In this analogy, when the lady’s new neighbor appeared, there was a lot of feuding: the Islamic invasion of western Europe in the 7th Century, followed by the Crusades, followed by two Turkish invasions that were stopped at the gates of Vienna in the 16th and 17th centuries.Gradually, they established relative boundaries—but then the male neighbor developed a lucrative new career: oil. Eventually, the woman begins a relationship with him, because he’s got something she wants, and they marry.Regardless of his professed good intentions, every now and then he beats her up — an analogy for all these massacres. Regardless of his wealth, every now and then he steals a piece of her heirloom jewelry, and sells it to support his drug habit — an analogy for the roughly $9 billion in fraud schemes we now see in Minnesota, almost entirely by Somali Muslims, also justified by the Koran (Surah Al-Anfal, Chapter 8; Surah Al-Hashr, Chapter 59; Surah Al-Baqarah, Chapter 2, Verse 190-194).Any woman with any sense, and a husband who is really nice to her 99.99% of the time, but beats her up and steals from her 0.01% of the time, is going to start thinking about divorce. So she takes a look at his iPhone.Every now and then, in his confidential texts to his pals, he openly admits that he wants to kill her — an analogy for all the “death to America” and “death to Israel” campaigns in Muslim nations.Is there any doubt that such a woman wouldn’t be hiring a divorce lawyer in a New York second?
