What is described below is taken directly from Political Ponerology (pp 109-112) by Andrew M. Lobaczewski (http://zaidpub.files.wordpress.com/2013/12/political-ponerology.pdf) and can be ascribed to greater or lesser degrees to every nation and the cult of personality that encompasses their leader/leadership. Muslims are no exception and no amount of obligatory prayers exempt them from the realities of evil, because evil requires both knowledge and correct action to be thwarted; otherwise, it flows like lava towards and into paths of least resistance. It is after all, a completely natural phenomenon.
There is also the occult aspect of secret societies and their fellowship with jinn to bear in mind; many of which are/were somehow guided and /or otherwise influenced by Jews such as Alfred Rosenberg, an occult adept from Russia and one of Hitler’s closest advisers whom very few people, including historians, know about. Nevertheless, these influences enter when prayerful folk fail to act and maintain a shepherd’s vigilance. Eventually, without just actions, prayers become little more than mantras of vanity that then cloak the devolution of wickedness.

A relatively well-documented example of such an influence of a characteropathic personality on a macrosocial scale is the last German emperor, Wilhelm II.
He was subjected to brain trauma at birth. During and after his entire reign, his physical and psychological handicap was hidden from public knowledge. The motor abilities of the upper left portion of his body were handicapped. As a boy, he had difficulty learning grammar, geometry, and drawing, which constitute the typical triad of academic difficulties caused by minor brain lesions. He developed a personality with infantile features and insufficient control over his emotions, and also a somewhat paranoid way of thinking which easily sidestepped the heart of some important issues in the process of dodging problems.
Militaristic poses and a general’s uniform overcompensated for his feelings of inferiority and effectively cloaked his shortcomings. Politically, his insufficient control of emotions and factors of personal rancor came into view. The old Iron Chancellor had to go, that cunning and ruthless politician who had been loyal to the monarchy and had built up Prussian power.
After all, he was too knowledgeable about the prince’s defects and had worked against his coronation. A similar fate met other overly critical people, who were replaced by persons with lesser brains, more subservience, and, sometimes, discreet psychological deviations. Negative selection took place.
The eldest grandchild of Queen Victoria, Wilhelm symbolized his era and the nouveaux riche aspects of the German empire. The kaiser suffered from a birth defect that left his left arm withered and useless. It was claimed that he overcame this handicap, but the effort to do so left its mark, and despite efforts of his parents to give him a liberal education, the prince became imbued with religious mysticism, militarism, anti-semitism, the glorification of power politics. Some have claimed that his personality displayed elements of a narcissistic personality disorder. Bombastic, vain, insensitive, and possessed with grandiose notions of divine right rule, his personality traits paralleled those of the new Germany: strong, but off balance; vain, but insecure; intelligent, but narrow; self-centered yet longing for acceptance.
Since the common people are prone to identify with the emperor, and through the emperor, with a system of government, the characteropathic material emanating from the Kaiser resulted in many Germans being progressively deprived of their
ability to use their common sense. Many German families had a member who was psychologically not quite normal, it became a matter of honor (even excusing nefarious conduct) to hide this fact from public opinion = (‘good breeding’ = good manners), and even from the awareness of close friends and relatives.
… Then came the histrionics that fostered WWI followed by WWII. Many thoughtful persons keep asking the same anxious question: how could the German nation have chosen for a Fuehrer [Hitler] a clownish psychopath who made no bones about his pathological vision of superman rule? Under his leadership, Germany then unleashed a second criminal and politically absurd war. During the second half of this war, highly-trained army officers honorably performed inhuman orders, senseless from the political and military point of view, issued by a man whose psychological state corresponded to the routine criteria for being forcibly committed to a psychiatric hospital.
An interesting comparison is the regime of George W. Bush and the [predominantly Jewish] Neoconservatives. It follows, almost point by point, the history of the Kaiser and what then occurred in Germany.
The German nation, fed for a generation on pathologically altered psychological material, fell into a state comparable to what we see in certain individuals raised by persons who are both characteropathic and hysterical. Psychologists know from experience how often such people then let themselves commit acts which seriously hurt others. A psychotherapist needs a good deal of persistent work, skill, and prudence in order to enable such a person to regain his ability to comprehend psychological problems with more naturalistic realism and to utilize his healthy critical faculties in relation to his own behavior.
The Germans inflicted and suffered enormous damage and pain during the first World War; they thus felt no substantial guilt and even thought that they were the ones who had been wronged. This is not surprising as they were behaving in accordance with their customary habit, without being aware of its pathological causes. The need for this pathological state to be concealed in heroic garb after a war in order to avoid bitter disintegration became all too common.
A mysterious craving arose, as if the social organism had managed to become addicted to some drug. The hunger was for more pathologically
modified psychological material, a phenomenon known to psychotherapeutic experience. This hunger could only be satisfied by another similarly pathological personality and system of government. A characteropathic personality opened the door for leadership by a psychopathic individual. We shall return
later in our deliberations to this pathological personality sequence, as it appears a general regularity in ponerogenic processes.
A ponerological approach facilitates our understanding of a person who succumbs to the influence of a characteropathic personality, as well as comprehension of macrosocial phenomena caused by the contribution of such factors. Unfortunately,
relatively few such individuals can be served by appropriate psychotherapy.
