Union Jack over Yorktown

Let’s cut to the chase. Islam, as it exists today, is a ‘religion’ (sic) that seeks to either convert or kill infidels. I am unaware of any significant faction of Islam that has come out and set itself in opposition to this. Admittedly, there are some individuals who have publicly stated that they repudiate this policy, but they are then immediately forced into hiding or condemned to languish in some sort of (U.S.) government-sponsored protection program.

As such, strictly speaking, Islam is not a religion but a ruthless mercenary movement that is often exploited by secular enemies to inflict pain on one another. This is where Islam derives its funding and power. If communism should succeed in bringing down the Free World with the help of Islamist extremists, Islam would find itself crushed within the span of less than a decade. Most Islamists are not smart enough to know that they are merely the pawns in a much larger fight for world supremacy.

In India, as soon as a Christian church is built somewhere, within days a mosque springs up within earshot. Often noisy open-air celebration are quickly organized to intrude on Christian high holy day celebrations. The police is brought in to keep things from getting out of hand. Hindu Temples are now closed to non-Hindus because it has been noted that Muslim visitors tend to make a nuisance of themselves. In order to keep from pointing a finger at the troublemakers, any non-Hindu is now prohibited from entering most sacred Hindu shrines.

Islam is not tolerant of other religions. It does not seek to coexist peacefully. In fact, Muslims who renounce Islam are under threat of death.

It is a fact that AQ conducts its terror all over the world under the banner or Islam. Again, no faction of Islam has come forward to denounce AQ’s repeated atrocities in its name.

Islam cannot win militarily. It seeks to achieve its aims through propaganda, terror and threat. In it’s dealings with non-Islamic states, it is permitted - even encouraged - to lie to secure its advantage. Therefore, any agreement with Islamists - signed or secured with a handshake - is not worth spit.

Lastly, all manner of myths have sprung up surrounding the 9/11 attacks on New York’s World trade Center. One is that Bush personally had a hand in it. Shrug. Another is that no Jews died because they were alerted to what was about to happen. Shrug. Let me suggest a third: Nadler mentions that Muslims also died in the attacks. This is not difficult to accept. Islamists, after all, show little regard for their own anywhere in the world. It is a fact that many more Muslims have died since AQ’s reign of terror than non-Muslims. Nadler may also be technically correct because the hijackers also died on 9/11. However, I have heard of no Muslim innocent dying as a result of the 9/11 outrage. A cursory scan of the internet does not lend credibility to the assertion that innocent Muslims died. If any had, I’m sure their families would have been repeatedly trotted out in front of the TV cameras.

I don’t see how the Carmelite Nuns example figures into the argument. What I do see is akin to the Union Jack being raised over Yorktown to presage the war‘s end in favor of the enemy.

They're Dangerous

I honestly believe you don’t give the Left enough credit, John. You shouldn’t dismiss them out of hand; they’re here, and they’ll still be here after the elections. They’re not interested in the economy; they’re not interested in jobs; Israel; GM; energy and whatever else we might feel is important. They’re not even interested in elections. They’ve got their guy in the White House and that’s enough for them. They’ll do their bloody best to keep him there, whether the economy improves or not.

Netroots is just the rabble - moronic; expendable. There’s an exact duplicate of those same people that you never see - or you see them in the guise of reasonable people in suits: Soros, Kerry, Frank, Schumer, Clinton, Reid, Pelosi - need I go on?

Then there are the internationalists, powerful men who harbor illusions of grandeur; self-appointed global visionaries who see themselves as having been anointed for the sole purpose of taking down no less than the United States of America - former bulwark of the free world. It is they who have the deep pockets; the endurance; and, above all, the organization to bring all this about. Their primary weapons are terror, propaganda and time. They hope to win by attrition; by exhausting us - the loyal, disorganized, partially blind opposition.

They see their time nearly used up. They will act now - or soon. Financial collapse, social unrest - they hold the strings - their guy in the White House. They have arrived. Elections be damned. They won’t let go. Even if we win overwhelmingly in November, what will we have we won? A Xerox copy machine? A House and Senate that have already discredited themselves beyond redemption?

Our disadvantage remains because we play by the rules. They don’t. That’s why we don’t win wars anymore. We fight by Queensberry Rules - like the British once did - and lost. Back in Washington’s time, we picked them off one at the time as they marched in neat formation. Their uniforms matched the pain we inflicted.

“A large, robust man in a blue suit…” Really, John? He wouldn’t do this if he thought his side couldn’t win. At one time there was an equally laughable chump with a mustache who managed to bring the world to its knees.

Don’t dismiss them, John. They’re dangerous.

Presidential Sex Crimes

I said months ago that the Obama presidency would bring about a shift in global alliances. We had always been known as the leader of the 'free world'. Those who shared our ideals were considered our allies; those who did not were considered our adversaries. Now that we have so openly displayed our weakness (under this administration) there is no longer any reason for anyone to side with us. No one needs us for money, for we are bankrupt; no one needs us for protection, for we refuse to fight. No one even needs us as a credible adversary.

The betrayal and handover of an eviscerated America will not be celebrated by our enemies. They will not hate us less. Neither will they reward Obama for it. We will quietly slip into irrelevancy - like Myanmar; like North Korea. Some future American dictator might even find it necessary to build a bomb to extort aid from the successful nations.

The world will laugh at our bravado; they will know that there is nothing behind our threats; our baseless boasts; that we have squandered all we had to atone for the sex crime of a former American president.
