Every year on May 21, the United Nations observes World Day for Cultural Diversity for Dialogue and Development. On this day, the UN focuses on the richness of the world’s cultures as well as the essential role of intercultural dialogue for achieving peace and sustainable development.
Statistical analysis reveals that 51% of the Islamic doctrine is about Kafirs (non-Muslims) and how to deal with and subjugate them. (1) This part of the doctrine is called Political Islam. Based on the information contained in its primary sources, the Koran, Sira and Hadith, Political Islam is an ideology that works strongly against diversity as well as dialogue. Mohammed himself clearly outlined its goal, which is to establish its authority world-wide, creating one monocultural civilization, leaving no space for any other culture or even a thought of diversity or dialogue.
In places ruled by Political Islam, no other culture is allowed to exist, save Jews and Christians, and only in a very limited way. They must submit to Sharia law, which greatly curtails their religious and cultural expression. They must pay a special tax called Jizya. The doctrine stresses that the tax must be collected in such a way that the Kafirs understand they are of lower status than Muslims.
It's time to acknowledge facts and open an honest debate on how to face the threat of Political Islam to non-Islamic cultures around the world.

📖 Doctrinal support (2,3):
Hadith Muslim 001, 0031- Mohammed said: I have been commanded to fight against people, till they testify to the fact that there is no god but Allah, and believe in me (that) I am the messenger (from the Lord) and in all that I have brought. And when they do it, their blood and riches are guaranteed protection on my behalf except where it is justified by law, and their affairs rest with Allah.
Koran 9:29 - Fight against such of those who have been given the Scripture as believe not in Allah nor the Last Day, and forbid not that which Allah hath forbidden by His messenger, and follow not the Religion of Truth, until they pay the tribute readily, being brought low.
