What Comes Down Reappear and Grow
The building should be exactly rebuilt if it's a highly symbolic or cultural building. The message is that the culture that the building symbolized will never disappear. For authenticity purposes, fragments of the destroyed building may be saved for the future (like the ancient rock statue of Buddha that was blown in Afghanistan.)
If it's a building that has a mainly commercial or in otherwise productive function: The building should be replaced by a greater building with the same purpose as the tear down building. The message is: If you attack a building and the idea behind it, we will build a replacing one that has the same purpose but is even bigger, and therefore your attack backfired.

Green Zone Book and Academic Paper Publishing
One solution is anonymity for selected employees and authors. The anonymity for employees are best upheld by not having a common physical working location (or if practically possible a secret one). The employees may work on-line, on secure lines.
The anonymous publishing house may have to have some public front representatives. The safety of these should be maintained optimally.
This kind of publishing houses should seek media publicity about their radical organizational structure and it may get it. To market it to the public and important interests are vital, of course.
This may be adaptable to Academic Papers as well.
Most Important Status: Free Speech on the Internet
The goal should be that the highest standards of free speech (I suggest the standards in the United States of America) should be the real standards in all Western and all other countries. There need to be, if possible, Internet support structures for realizing this that transcend national borders.
It is of strategic importance to create such structures if only for the purpose of creating this vital strategic counter-Sharia and counter-Jihad tool. It is also important to market these structures and the freedom of speech that they hold.
The Corporate Profitability of Counter-Sharia and Counter-Jihad Investments
It is important to enlighten companies and wealthy individuals and organizations about this investment opportunity and to provide them with attractive counter-Sharia and counter-Jihad programs.
Of course, an increased inflow of resources would be important for the counter-Sharia and counter-Jihad movement.

A Great Weapon: Rape - Religion Statistics
This is what perhaps should be done: Individuals and group interested in preventing rape and Sharia systematically and on an ongoing basis examine verdicts from courts. The guilty person's religion and origin are then checked up. These facts are then summarized. And the results are spread to the public. If media is not interested in preventing rape then notes may be put up on walls on public areas and friends and families may be informed about the threats to women.
It would be interesting to know about the victim's description of the rapist(s) in those cases where no arrests were made; what language did they speak? These data could be summarized as well.

Freedoms Vs Freedoms
How about living in a country with Sharia law? What freedom and rights does not exist there, that exist in a non-Sharia country? There are many. Equal rights for women about inheritance, punishment for adultery, choice of clothing. Non-Muslim extra tax is a discrimination of non-Muslims. The list is probably longer. For more information, study Daniel Pipes website.
Is there a shot in the arm that might prevent this. Are there freedoms and rights in the non-Sharia country that may be taken away in a way that prevent Sharia from replacing the existing laws? Which of these rights and freedoms would be worth taking away? Are dictatorships, like China, able to supress Islamization? Would you prefer living in a Sharia-free China or a Sharia-ruled Western country?
There is a policy that more or less take away the risk of Sharia without breaking any rights or freedoms. That is to reject immigrants and refugees that are Muslim, on one hand, and on the other hand taking in non-Muslim refugees and immigrants at a rate that prevents the rate of Muslims in the country from increasing. One disadvantage with this method is that moderate Muslims that are escaping Sharia from Sharia-ruled countries are declined help, which would be heart-aching to do.
The rational person strives for a future and use means to do this that are optimal.

Islamists Are Perhaps Acting Out From a Wish For Survival
A lot of persons like capitalism because it helps them consume and invest in more services and goods. Consumption is a source of comfort, as is a religious belief. Capitalism therefore diminishes the need for using religion as a comfort. Because people like comfort it is natural in a free world for capitalism to spread like the rays of the sun at the break of a new day.
It can be regarded that islamists has started its new aggressive aim for worldwide domination (after centuries of being passive they began aggressive once againg in the 20:th century?) as the only way of survival for Sharia. If the islamists hadn´t started this latest aggressive approach then capitalism might have swept across the earth and brought modernisation, civilization, democracy and material wealth to all of its corners: this would not have been a climate for Sharia to reign anywhere.
If this is true, then this time Islamists act out of a wish for survival.
A Negative View of Capitalism Is Helping Islamists
The guilt comes from the view that capitalism is making West rich on poor contries behalf. Westerners who feels this hold thoose cultures that is not identified as pro-capitalistic as morally superior about the economic aspect than the capitalist supporting cultures. Non-Muslim Westerners are probably identifying Islam as less pro-capitalistic than whatever belief or cultural system they themselves hold*. If this is true then the non-Muslim Westerners that hold this negative view of capitalism tends to regard Muslims as morally superior about views on economics. A person who in any aspect regards another person as morally superior is "one down" on the other person, which can be expoited by the person that is one-up. A large part of Westerners belief about capitalism therefore benefit Islamists.
Fortunately for truth-speaking persons this view on capitalism is factually wrong**. There are more support for the view that capitalism is a win-win method, with no loosers, that capitalism is a system of mutual growth and not one of trying to grab as much as possible from a constant set of valubales.
If this is true then one way of fighting Islamism is to make people and oneself regard capitalism more accurately and positively.
* Because there are fewer Muslims in "more capitalistic" Western work market positions such as in the financial sector and in management for Western businesses, because of the non-interest aspect of Sharia, and because Westerners mentally connect Muslims to the Middle East, the Middle East generally regarded as less capitalistic than the west, and perhaps because the targets on Nine-Eleven was symbols of capitalism.
** Because they can act to spread the positive view on capitalism without being untruthful.

The Archaic Battle: Love vs Hate
What is most valuble to protect from Islamists is Love.
One can formulate the war between Islamists and the rest of the world as a war between Hate and Love. It is interesting: What will win? What will prevail. Love or Hate? Will Love defeat Hate? Good and smart people take strength from the identification that when you fight Islamists you fight for Love.
This is the classic battle in many movies: Like Star Wars, when Darth Wader is Hate and the Rebells are Love.
Islamists are driven by Hate, and non-Muslims and moderate Muslims are driven by Love.
Some Basic Knowledge
proselytize =
1 : to induce someone to convert to one's faith
2 : to recruit someone to join one's party, institution, or cause
Three Basic Ways To Marginalize Sharia Law
- There are as few Muslims living in the country as possible (a minority of all Muslims supports Sharia law though, according to Daniel Pipes).
- Among the Muslims living in the country as few of them as possible support Sharia Law (Three ways of supporting it is to vote for Sharia law to be implemented to the country, to attract new supporters for Sharia Law and to accept informal Sharia courts.)
- Possibly changing the Constitutions of countries (the Constitution part of the Law system) to minimize the risk of Sharia being formally implemented.
An important reform if implementing the first point is to stop immigration of Muslims and if refugees are welcomed into the country, only non-Muslims should are received.
Protecting From Harassing Lawsuits - And To Harass Back
Of absolut necessity is a structure for protecting free speech regarding Islam and Isamists.
How is free speach best protected?
Harassing lawsuits are lawsuits with no chance of winning and are only intended to disturb and scare. These exists (they are reported on the web resources of Daniel Pipes).
This awful reality should be adressed and dealt with by publishers. The purpose is to not be decouraged to publish material.
An optimal organizational structure for a publisher to deal with this is probably is to have established routines for handling law-suits. Also the publisher need to have the financial resources to handle law-suits. Organizations specializing in providing expertise and financing to publishers would be strategically very important - it could be engaged by publishers early in the process of deciding on publishing a text.
If or when or how to retaliate should be adressed by individuals and organizations interested in counter-Sharia and counter-Jihad.
These ideas are perhaps adaptable to the academic arena.

How To Strengthen Competing Religions
These are some suggestions how to strengthen other religions than Islam:
- Protestant churces - the buildings itself that is -, in Sweden at least, are often old, cold, badly lighted, has dull colours and symbols suffering. I guess that churches that are full of light, warmth and the wonderful feelings of love are attracting most people and energize the members the most. The solution is to redesign churches or comletly replace the existing buildings. One argument against this is that the churches represent architectural history and should not be touched, and its counter-argument is that churches deals primarily with faith and not architechture. Note that the churches has often excellent location, in the middle of cities for example, and these locations are important to not waste.
- Making attempts to strengthen the regard for non-Muslim religions among employees in media.
A united symbol for non-Islamists
There is a great need for a universally known and recognized symbols for those non-Muslims Muslims who prefer Civilization and therefore want Sharia to be as weak as possible.
The reason is that symbols has great powers over the mind and heart of humans.
A symbol of this kind is necessary to strengthen the movement for Civilization. The arguments are the same as those presented in the earlier blog post "Visibility of personal ideology".
What would a suitable symbol be?
A sun? A benefit is that the sun like the moon is a stellar unit (Islam has the moon as symbol). The sun represents lots of light, the moon represents a sometimes small portion of light during night, which accurately represents Civlization vs Sharia (light vs darkness).
The need of overall strategies for Civlization
There are two basic focuses for strategies:
- Strategies for strengthening Civilization in Western countries.
- Strategies for strengthening Civilization in all countries.
As the years pass by, a strategy for keeping human existence outside of Earth (in colonizations and spaceship cities), becomes important as well.

Visibility Of Faith, Ideology And Standards
Some muslim women show their muslim faith by the clothes they wear. And some Muslim show the same thing by a characteristic beard and sometimes by a distinctive hat.
In this way Muslims seems to express their faith in public more than supporters of other faiths. Muslims therefore gain more of the benefits mentioned for soccer team supporters than members of other faiths.
The stronger Muslims feel about themselves, the better is their position to succeed in strengthening the position of Sharia. Therefore it is important that supporters of other faiths and also those with atheist faiths (like fans of Objectivism, the philosophy of Ayn Rand, of which some relate to Objectivism as firmly as any religious person) expand their public display of their faiths.
Some suggestions of symbols that will work:
Fox News Channel
Ayn Rand (or is she too unknown?)
Christianity
Judaism
Atheism
Capitalism

About this forum: technicalities
- The disadvantage is the blog structure.
I rejected using:
- Google and Yahoo Groups because it is not possible to write discussion entries anonymous.
- Free forums because they will probably chicken out if the heat turns up.
The optimal choice would be a stand-up player like Google or Yahoo with anonymity option and with support for an technically advanced forum.
Advice about better solutions than Blogspot are appreciated.
