A jihad for Tino Rangatiratanga

Kiwi Jew Pundit has an post called Jake the Musslim, which provides a good commentary on the SST article on how many Maori prisoners are turning to Islam.

KJP points out the positives for Maori convicts could include discipline, order, a set of rules, and a ban on alcohol.

But the negatives may include “misogyny, homophobia, and legitimation of nihilistic violence (Kireki-Whaanga feels the attack in Beslan was Islamically legitimate)” and “provide a religious justification for rage-fueled aggression”.

Time will tell whether the positives will outweigh the negatives.
