In this video, Professor, Dr. Richard Landes talks about fundamental Muslim beliefs that Islam should dominate the world, and that according to Muslim beliefs, everyone in the world must be either Muslim, convert to Islam, or be a subservient to Islam, and be ruled by Sharia law. In the west, west we believe in the separation of church and state. We don't want to be ruled by strict and medieval Sharia law or be subjected to Islamic beliefs or laws. In the west we believe that everyone should have freedom, and be free to believe in whatever religion they wish, or practice whatever religious laws they want, as long as it doesn't interfere with other people and doesn't effect them. In Islamic beliefs, Muslims believe that everyone should convert to Islam, and that they need to spread their religion. Additionally, it is also difficult to make a distinction between moderate Muslim beliefs and radical Islamic beliefs which believe in using violence and jihad to conquer the world, and make everyone convert to Islam. So even if a Muslim person isn't violent, but believes that Islam should rule the world, and that everyone should convert to Islam, that is an extremist view, and the people in the western world in countries like United States, Canada, England, France, Italy, Germany and other western European countries should be aware of the spread of Islamic beliefs and Sharia law (often extremist and fundamentalist Islamic beliefs and strict practice of Sharia law) in their civilized western societies. The fundamentalist Islamic beliefs are not only spreading in countries like United States, Canada, England, France, Italy, Germany and other western European countries, but they are using the democracy and many human rights concepts in the west to undermine the west. In the video, Richard gives an example that 1,000 years ago, the Arab world was considered the 1st world, and Europe was the 3rd world. As Islam was invented, it spread throughout the Middle East, and Muslims were extremely proud of their tradition, and developed notions about treating conquered people. Conquered people like Christian or Jews were dhimmy which means that they had an inferior status in Islamic societies. This is the Islamic belief of how Christians and Jews should be treated. There is another Islamic belief that the land where Islam rules, Sharia law rules, and everyone must abide by the rules of Sharia law. Dal el harb - means the realm of the sword. This refers to the part of the world where people did not convert to Islam and do not hold Muslim beliefs. People who do not believe in the Muslim faith are called infidels in Islam, and that is a derogatory term. So Muslims view people who live in "dar el harb" as people who need to be conquered and made to either convert to Islam or become subservient and second class citizens. And if people don't convert to Islam or become subservient, they are literally destined to the sword! Think about that. Islam has developed a number of beliefs towards non-believers which are profoundly derogatory. So how can this be a religion of peace when they view everyone else as those that need to be conquered, submit, or put to the sword and face violence. It is a profoundly negative, hostile, and xenophobic view of everyone else in the world. The Muslim world has had a culture of always been about conquering lands militarily. The conquered Constantinople in the 1400s, then got to the Balkan states and got as far as the gates of Vienna. And in all the lands they conquered they subjected people to the choice of conversion to Islam, subservience and a second class citizen, or violent death to people who resisted them. Of course, by the end of the 1400s, Spanish armies kicked the Muslim armies out of Europe. But an interesting fact should be noted. In the year 1,000, the Arab world was the leading part of the world in trade, affluence and technology. But by the 1400s and as time went on, Europe caught the Arab world and slowly started to dominate, which is why the western European armies were able to kick the Muslim armies out of Europe. In the course of this millennium, Europe becomes stronger and stronger, and the Islamic world started falling behind and realizing that they are losing. The real wake up call came in 1798 when Napoleon invaded Arab lands and swept through them gaining victory after victory. It was easy to see how much Europe had gotten to be more advanced than the Muslim armies. In the Muslim world, this began an awareness that something has gone wrong, and the Islamic world's belief that they belong at the top has been seriously challenged and started a sense of resentment towards the modern west. And since the Islamic world feels that they have been cheated by the west, there is a lot of resentment.
