Excerpt from Mr. Adnan Oktar's Live Conversation on A9TV dated September 24th, 2014
-As you have also stated, U.S. President Obama has said that ISIL can be destroyed if its ideology is brought down. 'The time has come for Muslim societies to reject the ideology of organizations such as al-Qaeda and ISIL,’ he said.
Adnan Oktar: How can rejection come about? There is no way of rejecting them other than the system of the Mahdi. If there is, let me hear it. The system of the Mahdi is the only way. Of course it is good that Obama noted that. It shows the impact of the letter we sent him.
- Obama went on to say, ‘Those who fight for hatred will be isolated. We reject the concept of a clash of civilizations, because such approaches only stir up further hatred.’
Adnan Oktar: Excellent. Obama has used language representative of the system of the Mahdi. A language representing love and patience.
- Obama said, 'America will never be at war with Islam. Islam represents peace.’
Adnan Oktar: He spoke with the language of the system of the Mahdi. From what I can tell, our letter has been really useful. Excellent.
- In terms of the Islamic world, he said; ‘Also religions face the threat of extremism. The youth of the Arab world now need to see their potential. We have a deep-rooted past. They must turn to novelty, instead of violence. We will provide support for the education of young people. That is the most important investment in our eyes.’
Adnan Oktar: Obama says all this with good intentions, but the real issue is the radical movement in Arab countries. In other words, movements that advocate violence are regarded as the true Islam. His method will therefore not produce results. There is no other way than supporting the system of the Mahdi. They may not have realized, but they will understand it very well within a few years. It is not an issue to pass over lightly. Calling on young people to embrace novelty will not produce results. Young people say they are already creating novelty. They regard being a terrorist and using violence as novelty. There are also young people with communist mindsets in the Middle East who mistakenly regard the use of violence as novelty. They say they have created style through the use of heavy weapons and bombs.
Obama has spoken rather cautiously. He intended to give a good message, but he did not bring a solution, only showed his good intentions. He spoke relatively well, but speeches do not create solutions, and violence is still growing apace.
