Staring into the Abyss

“What are the Arabs without Islam? What is the ideology that they gave, or they can give to humanity if they abandon Islam? The only ideology the Arabs advanced for mankind was the Islamic faith which raised them to the position of human leadership. If they forsake it they will no longer have any function or role to play in human history.”

Who said these words? Some horror-show fascist right-wing radio talk-show host? Er, no.

Sayyid Qutb http://www.islamicawakening.com/viewarticle.php?articleID=619 founder of Muslim Brotherhood, the first Wahhabist group based in Egypt, and touchstone for many present-day Wahhabist offshoots.

So I guess its ok for us to say it!
