Is There Such a Thing as a Moderate Muslim?




Personally, I don't believe there is such a thing as a moderate muslim. There have been too many opportunities for them, if they existed, to stand up and speak out about the atrocities they're so-called "radical/extremist" brethren are committing in the name of islam. They aren't speaking out. At least not in any great numbers.

The ones who do call themselves "moderate" are using the term as a facade to cover their agenda of recruitment for islam. I refer specifically to one such group doing a wonderful job of "snowing" people by stating they intend to change the koran, to rid it of it's violence. However, when this group is questioned directly and put on the spot, they become argumentative and abusive. They simply cannot defend what they purport to preach because to change the koran would mean it's not the absolute word of god as they believe. You can't change the Word of God and have it remain the word of god. They can't answer to that discrepancy, and will resort to insults, abuse and filth when asked repeatedly to answer that discrepancy. This group is known as Muslims Against Sharia and I've blogged about them here and here.

Another such group is CAIR, who is a front group for Hamas and an unindicted co-conspirator in several lawsuits. Of course, this is the same CAIR Michael Savage is suing (lawsuit information here) as they are trying to shut down his freedom of speech by stealing his copyright material and then, basically, cut and pasting it to serve their own agenda rather than the context in which it was originally spoken.

Again, these are two groups who want you to think they're "moderate" while behind the scenes they promote the actual agenda of jihad.

My mail box today contained a copy of an article originally published November 25, 2004 by Hugh Fitzgerald for Jihad Watch here. The title is "Ten Things to Think When Thinking of Muslim Moderates" and can be found here. It's also posted in its entirety below. I also posted something called the "9 Point Guide to Discern islamist from Non-islamist Schools" here. This article was originally published by American Congress for Truth/Family Security Matters here.

Here, then, is Mr. Fitzgerald's article:



Jihad Watch Board Vice President Hugh Fitzgerald's brilliant and absolutely must-be-read exploration of the very concept of moderate Islam and the existence of moderate Muslims:

1. Not only Muslims, but "islamochristians" objectively promote and push the propagandistic line that disguises the Jihad (evidence of which can be found worldwide), and mislead as to both what prompts that Jihad (not "poverty" or "foreign policy" but the precepts of the belief-system of Islam) and what will sate it (not Kashmir, not Chechnya, not the absurd "two-state solution," not continued appeasement in France and Holland -- there is nothing that will sate or satisfy it, as long as part of the globe is as yet resistent to the rule of Islam). "Christians" such as Fawaz Gerges or Rami Khoury, or someone who was born a Christian, such as Edward Said, are Arabs whose views are colored by that self-perception. Their loyalty to the community and history of Arabs causes them to be as loyal to the Islamic view of things as if they had been born Muslim. They stoutly defend Islam against all of Western scholarship (in Orientalism), or divert attention
away from Islam and constantly assert, in defiance of all the evidence, from
Bali to Beslan to Madrid, that the "problem of Israel/Palestine" -- the latest,
and most sinister formulation of the Jihad against Israel -- is the fons et
origo of Muslim hostility and murderous aggression throughout the world. Save
for the Copts and Maronites, who regard themselves not as Arabs but as "users"
of the "Arabic language" (and reject the idea that such "users" therefore become
"Arabs"), many Arab Christians have crazily embraced the Islamic agenda; the
agenda, that is, of those who have made the lives of Christians in the Middle
East so uncertain, difficult, and at times, imperilled. The attempt to be "plus
islamiste que les islamistes" -- the approach of Rami Khoury and Hanan Ashrawi
-- simply will not do, for it has not worked. It is Habib Malik and other
Maronites in Lebanon who have analysed the problem of Islam in a clear-eyed
fashion. Indeed, the best book on the legal status of non-Muslims under Islam is
that of the Lebanese (Maronite) scholar Antoine Fattal.


Any "islamochristian" Arab who promotes the Islamic agenda, by participating in a
campaign that can only mislead Infidels and put off their understanding of Jihad
and its various instruments, is objectively as much part of the problem as the
Muslim who knowingly practices taqiyya in order to turn aside the suspicions of
non-Muslims. Whoever acts so as to keep the unwary Infidel unwary is helping the
enemy.


Think, for a minute, of Oskar Schindler. A member of the Nazi Party, but hardly someone who followed the Nazi line. But what if Schindler had at some point met with Westerners -- and had continued, himself, to deny that the Nazis were engaged in genocide, even if he himself deplored it and would later act against it? Would we think of him as a "moderate"? As someone who had helped the anti-Nazi coalition to understand what it was up against?


Or for another example, think of Ilya Ehrenburg, who in 1951 or so was sent abroad
by Stalin to lie about the condition of Yiddish-speaking intellectuals whom
Stalin had recently massacred. Ehrenburg went to France, went to Italy. He did
as he was told. "Peretz? Markish? Oh, yes, saw Peretz at his dacha last month
with his grandson. Such a jovial fellow. Markish -- he was great last year in
Lady Macbeth of the Mtsensk District -- you should see how it comes across in
zhargon, Yiddish..." And so it went. Eherenburg lied, and lied. He was not a
Stalinist. He hated Stalin. He of course hated the destruction of Peretz,
Markish, and many others who had been killed many months before -- as Ehrenburg
knew perfectly well. When he went abroad and lied to the editors of Nouvelle
Revue Francaise, what was he? Objectively, he was promoting the interests of
Joseph Stalin, and the Red Army, and the Politburo. We need not inquire into
motives. We need only see what the results of such lying were. And the same is
true of those Christian Arabs who lie on behalf of Islam -- some out of fear,
some out of an ethnocentric identification so strong that they end up defending
Islam, the religion of those who persecuted the Christian Arabs of the Middle
East, and some out of venality (if Western diplomats and journalists can be on
the Arab take, why not Arabs themselves?), some out of careerism. If you want to
rise in the academic ranks, and your field is the Middle East, unless you are a
real scholar -- Cook or Crone or Lewis -- better to parrot the party line, which
costs you nothing and gains you friends in tenure-awarding, grant-giving,
reference-writing circles. There is at least one example, too, among those
mentioned, in a situation where an Arabic-speaking Christian, attempting to find
refuge from Muslim persecution, needed the testimony of an "expert" -- which
"expert," instead of offering a pro-bono samaritan act, demanded so much money
to be involved (in a fantastic display of greed) that the very idea of
solidarity among Arab Christians was called by this act permanently into
question.


2. The word "moderate"
cannot be reasonably applied to any Muslim who continues to deny the contents --
the real contents, not the sanitized or gussied-up contents -- of Qur'an,
hadith, and sira.
Whether that denial is based on ignorance, or based on
embarrassment, or based on filial piety (and an unwillingness to wash dirty
ideological laundry before the Infidels) is irrelevant. Any Muslim who, while
seeming to deplore every aspect of Muslim aggression, based on clear textual
sources in Qur'an and hadith, or on the example of Muhammad as depicted in the
accepted sira -- Muhammad that "model" of behavior -- is again, objectively,
acting in a way that simply misleads the Infidels. And any Muslim who helps to
mislead Infidels about the true nature of Islam cannot be called a "moderate."
That epithet is simply handed out a bit too quickly for sensible tastes.


3. What of a Muslim who says -- there are terrible
things in the sira and hadith, and we must find a way out, so that this
belief-system can focus on the rituals of individual worship, and offer some
sustenance as a simple faith for simple people? This would require admitting that a great many of Muhammad's reported acts must either be
denied, or given some kind of figurative interpretation, or otherwise removed as
part of his "model" life
. As for the hadith, somehow one would have to
say that Bukhari, and Muslim, and the other respected muhaddithin had not
examined those isnad-chains with quite the right meticulousness, and that many
of the hadith regarded as "authentic" must be reduced to the status of
"inauthentic." And, following Goldziher, doubt would have to be cast on all of
the hadith, as imaginative elaborations from the Qur'an, without any necessarily
independent existence.


4. This leaves the Qur'an. Any "moderate" who wishes to prevent inquiry into the origins of the Qur'an -- whether it may be the product of a Christian sect, or a Jewish sect, or of pagan Arabs who decided to construct a book, made up partly of Christian and Jewish material mixed with bits and pieces of pagan Arab lore from the time of the Jahiliya -- or to prevent philological study (of, for example, Aramaic and other loan-words) -- anyone who impedes the enterprise of subjecting the Qur'an to the kind of historical inquiry that the Christian and Jewish Bibles have undergone in the past 200 years of inquiry, is not a "moderate" but a fervent Defender of the Faith. One unwilling to encourage such study -- which can only lead to a move away from literalness for at least some of the Believers -- again is not "moderate."


5. The conclusion one must reach is that there are, in truth, very few moderates. For if one sees the full meaning of Qur'an, hadith, and sira, and sees how they have affected the behavior of Muslims both over 1400 years of conquest and subjugation of non-Muslims, and in stunting the
development -- political, economic, moral, and intellectual -- of Muslims
everywhere, it is impossible not to conclude that this imposing edifice is not
in any sense moderate or susceptible to moderation.


What must an intelligent Muslim, living through the hell of the Islamic Republic of Iran, start to think of Islam? Or that Kuwaiti billionaire, with houses in St. James
Place and Avenue Foch and Vevey, as well as the family/company headquarters in
Kuwait City, who sends his children to the American School in Kuwait, and boasts
that they know English better than they know Arabic, helps host Fouad Ajami when
he visits Kuwait, is truly heartsick to see Kuwait's increasing islamization?
Would he allow himself to say what he knows in public, or in front of
half-brothers, or to friends -- knowing that at any moment, they may be
scandalized by his free-thinking views, and that he may run the risk of losing
his place in the family's pecking order and, what's more, in the family
business?


The mere fact that Muslim numbers may grow
in the Western world represents a permanent threat to Infidels
. This is
true even if some, or many, of those Muslims are "moderates" -- i.e. do not
believe that Islam has some kind of divine right, and need, to expand until it
covers the globe and swallows up dar al-harb. For if they are still to be
counted in the Army of Islam, not as Deserters (Apostates) from that Army, their
very existence in the Bilad al-kufr helps to swell Muslim ranks, and therefore
perceived Muslim power. And even the "moderate" father may sire immoderate children or grandchildren -- that was the theme of the
Hanif Kureishi film, quasi-comic but politically acute, "My Son the Fanatic."
Whether through Da'wa or large families, any growth in the Muslim population will inhibit free expression (see the fates of Pim
Fortuyn and Theo van Gogh, and the threats made to Geert Wilders, Carl Hagen,
Ayaan Hirsi Ali, and many others), for politicans eager to court the Muslim vote
will poohpooh Muslim outrages and strive to have the state yield to Muslim
demands -- for the sake of short-term individual gain. And Muslim numbers, even
with "moderates," increases the number of Muslim missionaries -- for every
Muslim is a missionary -- whether conducting "Sharing Ramadan" Outreach in the
schools (where a soft-voiced Pakistani woman is usually the soothing
propagandist of choice), or Da'wa in a prison. The more Muslims there are, the
more there will be -- and no one knows which "moderate" will end up distinctly
non-moderate in his views, and then in his acts.


And this brings up the most important problem: the impermanance of "moderate" attitudes. What makes anyone think that someone who this week or month has definitely turned his back on Jihad, who will have nothing to do with those he calls the "fanatics," if he does not make a clean break with Islam, does not become a "renegade" or apostate, will at some point "revert" not to Islam, which he never left, but to a more devout form, in which he now subscribes to all of its tenets, and not merely to a few having to do with rites of individual worship?


6. The examples to the contrary are both those
of individuals, and of whole societies. As for individual Muslims, some started
out as mild-mannered and largely indifferent to Islam, and then underwent some
kind of crisis and reverted to a much more fanatical brand of Islam. That was
the case with urban planner Mohammad Atta, following his disorienting encounter
with modern Western ways in Hamburg, Germany -- Reeperbahn and all. That was
also the case with "Mike" Hawash, the Internet engineer earning $360,000 a year,
who seemed completely integrated (American wife, Little League for the children,
friends among fellow executives at Intel who would swear up and down that he was
innocent) -- until one fine day, after the World Trade Center attacks, he made
out his will, signed the house over to his wife, and set off to fight alongside
the Taliban and Al Qaeda in Afghanistan (he got as far as China) against his
fellow Americans. In other words, if fanatical Muslims exist, it does not mean
that they all start out as fanatics. Islam is the necessary starting place, and
what sets off a "moderate" may have little to do with anything the Infidels do,
any question of foreign policy -- it may simply be a crisis in an individual
Muslim's life, to which he seeks an answer, not surprisingly, in ... more Islam.


7. Much the same lesson can be drawn from the experience of whole societies. In passing, one can note that the position of Infidels under the Pahlevi regime was better than it had been for centuries -- and under the regime that followed, that of the Islamic Republic of Iran, that position of Infidels became worse than it had been for centuries. "Secularism" in Islamic countries is never permanent; the weight and the threat of Islam is ever-present.


The best example of this is Turkey since 1924, when Ataturk began his reforms. He tried in every way he could -- through the Hat Act
(banishing the salat-friendly fez); commissioning a Turkish translation of the
Qur'an and an accompanying tafsir (commentary) in Turkish; ending the use of
Arabic script for Turkish; establishing government control of the mosques (even
attacking recalcitrant imams and destroying their mosques); giving women the
right to vote; establishing a system that discouraged the wearing of the hijab;
encouraging Western dress; and discouraging, in the army, preferment of any
soldier who showed too great an interest in religion. This attempt to constrain
Islam was successful, and was reinforced by the national cult of Ataturk.


But the past few decades have shown that Islam does
not die; it keeps coming back
. In Turkey, it never went away, despite the creation of a secular stratum of society that amounts perhaps to 25% of the population, with another 25% wavering, and 50%
still definitely traditional Muslims. Meanwhile, Turks in Germany become not less, but more fervent in their faith. And Turks in
Turkey, of the kind who follow Erdogan, show that they may at any moment emerge
and take power -- and slowly (very slowly, as long as that EU application has
not been acted on, one way or another) they can undo Ataturk. He was temporary;
Islam is forever.


8. That is why even the designation of some Muslims as "moderates" in the end means almost nothing. They swell Muslim numbers and the perceived Muslim power; "moderates" may help to mislead, to be in fact even more effective practitioners of taqiyya/kitman, for their motive may simply be loyalty to ancestors or embarrassment, not a malign desire to fool Infidels in order to disarm and then ultimately to destroy them.


9. For this reason, one has to keep one's eye always on the objective situation. What will make Infidels safer from a belief-system that is inimical to art, science, and all free inquiry, that stunts the mental growth, and that is based on a cruel Manichaean division of the world between Infidel and Believer? And the answer is: limiting the power –- military, political, diplomatic, economic power -- of all Muslim polities, and Muslim peoples, and diminishing, as much as possible, the Muslim presence, however amiable and plausible and seemingly untroubling a part of that presence may appear to be, in all the Lands of the Infidels. This is done not out of any spirit of enmity, but simply as an act of minimal self-protection -- and out of loyalty and gratitude to those who produced the civilization which, however it has been recently debased by its own inheritors, would disappear altogether were Muslims to succeed in islamizing Europe -- and then, possibly, other parts of the world as well.


10. "There are Muslim moderates. Islam itself is not moderate" is Ibn Warraq's lapidary formulation. To this one must add: we Infidels have no sure way to distinguish the real from the feigning "moderate" Muslim. We cannot spend our time trying to perfect methods to make such distinctions. Furthermore, in the end such distinctions may be meaningless if even the "real" moderates hide from us what Islam is all about, not out of any deeply-felt sinister motive, but out of a humanly-understandable ignorance (especially among some second or third-generation Muslims in the West), or embarrassment, or filial piety. And finally, yesterday's "moderate" can overnight be transformed into today's fanatic -- or tomorrow's.

Shall we entrust our own safety to the dreamy consolations of the phrase
"moderate Muslim" and the shapeshifting concept behind it that can be
transformed into something else in a minute?


Like I said, I don't believe there is such a thing as a moderate muslim. Other friends of mine do, and I respect their opinions. I, however, don't believe as they do. The scourge of islam needs to be stopped. It's not a religion--it is a societal ideology. One deadly to anyone not muslim.

Hate Crime Blamed on Young America's Foundation; Actually Committed by Muslim Student Association


Isn't that a lovely flyer?

It's disgusting. What makes it more disgusting is hundreds of these flyers were posted around the George Washington University campus.

What puts this poster in the troglodyte basement is down towards the bottom, where it says:

"For more information, contact the GWU Young America's Foundation" and "Brought to you by Students for Conservativo-Fascism Awareness" (an unregistered and fictitious student organization).

Here's the problem. It wasn't designed, produced, distributed or in any way connected with the GWU Young America's Foundation.

It was a hoax [they claim satire] perpetrated by the Saudi-funded radical islamic front group Muslim Student Association.

It was designed to perpetrate a media circus of condemnation for conservatives and when the criminals were caught, or admitted to their crime, they plead "satire". It is in fact libel. It is media manipulation--and I didn't see it covered on any MSM outlets today in my area. The criminals were lucky there wasn't a mass riot on campus based on these posters, as any time there's any inkling of anti-islam feelings anywhere there is an obligatory riot and screechings of "hate crime".

And we all know the only protected values these days are islamic ideals over and above the Judeo-Christian values this country was founded upon. There are no concessions made to any group other than islamics, from special kitchens and foods, footbaths and prayer times in schools to Congress voting to commend Ramadan.

So these criminals felt safe. They, however, don't seem to "get it" that REAL Americans in general and conservatives in particular are fed up with this crap and are fighting back.

That's when they decided to "fess up to their "satire" [hoax designed to incite hatred and a riot]. Those they had falsely accused spoke up and fought back.

Freedom of Speech is a beautiful thing. However, that freedom comes with responsibilities and part of those responsibilities include not purposely slandering/libeling someone else.

So who are the criminals? Stop the ACLU has this quote:
The students - Adam Kokesh, freshman Yong Kwon, senior Brian Tierny, freshman Ned Goodwin, Maxine Nwigwe, Lara Masri and Amal Rammah - said their motives were misinterpreted. Students for Conservativo-Facism Awareness hung the posters in opposition to Islamo-Fascism Awareness Week, an event being held beginning Oct. 22.

Little Green Footballs has much more here and Hot Air has quite a bit here; head on over and read more.

Catch the Wave!

The Man Behind Nuclear 9/11 Plan



I'm swiping this from Snooper. WAKE UP PEOPLE!!!




********************
This Man Leads Nuclear ‘9/11' Plan
Sunday, June 03, 2007 4:29 PM

He is the most wanted man in America yet most Americans have never heard his name.

He has been described as the "Fixer" of the Sept. 11 attacks. Several captured al-Qaida operatives have revealed this is the same man who bin Laden has tapped to lead the terror group's diabolical scheme to detonate nuclear devices simultaneously in several U.S. cities.

Meet Adnan el-Shukrijumah, now believed to be operating within the U.S. – a man the FBI warns is likely armed and dangerous.

"But no one on planet earth is more of a threat to the lives and well-being of every man, woman, and child within the United States than ferret-faced Adnan."

That's the dire warning from Paul L. Williams, author of his just released book "The Day of Islam: The Annihilation of America and the Western World." [Editor's Note: Get Paul Williams' explosive "The Day of Islam" FREE — Click Here Now.]

According to Williams, Adnan has not only been charged by al-Qaida with orchestrating a nuclear attack – he may have already smuggled nuclear material into America.

The U.S. government is offering a $5 million reward for information leading to his capture.

Ominously, Adnan "possesses the uncanny ability to blend into a crowd, to alter his looks, and to assume a multitude of identities," writes Williams, a seasoned investigative reporter and former FBI consultant.

"Few things about el-Shukrijumah indicate his radical Islamic orientation … He has been known to have a beer on occasion … to smoke an occasional Camel, and to carry rosary beads in his pocket …

"He is the proverbial Mr. Cellophane."

Adnan, 31, was born in Guyana, according to Williams, although the FBI believes he was born in Saudi Arabia. He spent his early years in New York City, where his father, a radical Muslim cleric, was the imam of a Brooklyn mosque known to serve as a recruiting station for al-Qaida.

In 1995, Adnan's family moved to Miramar, Fla., where Adnan's father became spiritual leader of a radical mosque. In Florida Adnan befriended Jose Padilla, who planned to detonate a dirty bomb in Manhattan, and Imran Mandhai, who was convicted of trying to blow up nuclear power plants in Florida.

Between 1996 and 2000, Adnan traveled extensively, spending time in Saudi Arabia, Pakistan, Trinidad, Tobago and Guyana. He managed to collect passports from a number of countries, and began using at least five aliases.

Adnan also attended flight school in Florida and Oklahoma, along with Mohammad Atta and other 9/11 operatives, and became adept at piloting jets.

In April 2001, Williams disclosed, Adnan spent 10 days in Panama, where he reportedly met with al-Qaida officials to help plan the 9/11 attacks.

After the terrorist strikes, Adnan became a key figure in al-Qaida's plans to escalate its attacks on the U.S. Williams compiled evidence that Osama bin Laden designated him to arrange a simultaneous nuclear attack on seven U.S. cities – New York, Washington, Los Angeles, Houston, Miami, Boston and Las Vegas.

Williams believes Adnan then enrolled at McMaster University in Hamilton, Ontario, site of a five-megawatt nuclear research reactor. Incredibly, Adnan was able to get a job as a guide at the reactor.

"Bit by bit, the al-Qaida operative allegedly managed to pilfer approximately 180 pounds of nuclear material from the university – enough to build several radiological bombs," Williams reports.

Adnan disappeared from the school in October 2003, several days before the nuclear material was reported missing. Alerted about Adnan's plans by a captured high-ranking al-Qaida official, Attorney General John Ashcroft and FBI director Robert Mueller issued a BOLO (be-on-the-lookout) alert for Adnan on March 21, 2004.

In the following months Adnan was spotted in Colorado, Pakistan, Honduras, Belize and Mexico.

In November 2004, another key al-Qaida operative was captured in Pakistan. He told interrogators that the terrorist group had arranged to smuggle nuclear supplies and tactical nuclear weapons into Mexico, then to transport them across the U.S. border with the aid of a Latino street gang. The gang was later identified as Mara Salvatrucha – a group Adnan at met with during his visit to Honduras.

"The gang has some form of presence in virtually every Hispanic community across the United States, and can offer al-Qaida unparalleled infiltration into any city in the country," according to a report from the Jamestown Foundation cited by Williams.

U.S. officials responded to the intelligence and began monitoring all heavy trucks crossing into the U.S. from Mexico, and Mexican officials vowed to keep close watch on flight schools and aviation facilities. Those precautions may have come to late, says Williams, who writes:

"A Piper PA Pawnee crop duster was stolen from Ejido Queretaro near Mexicali on November 1, 2004. The plane's tail number was XBCYP. The thieves, Mexican officials surmised, were either drug dealers or al-Qaida operatives, and clearly one was a highly trained pilot who met the description of Adnan el-Shukrijumah."

More Fallacies on the "Religion of Peace" and Islamophobia



This article came to my attention through Miss Ladybug at Victory Caucus. The full article can be found here


Islamophobia Worst Form of Terrorism, Islamic Foreign Ministers Say
Thursday, May 17, 2007

The gravest terrorist threat in the world today is Islamophobia, foreign ministers of the Organization of the Islamic Conference said this week.

“It is something that has assumed xenophobic proportions,” they said.

The ministers described Islamophobia as a deliberate defamation of
Islam and discrimination and intolerance against Muslims. They accused Western media of misrepresenting Islam and Muslims worldwide, according to a report in Arab News.

“The linkage of terrorists and extremists with Islam in a generalized manner is unacceptable," the ministers said.

Click here to read the full report in Arab News.

"The increasingly negative political and media discourse targeting Muslims and Islam in the
United States and Europe has made things all the more difficult," the foreign ministers said, according to the report.

“This campaign of calumny against Muslims resulted in the publication of the blasphemous cartoons depicting Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) in a Danish newspaper and the issuance of the inflammatory statement by
Pope Benedict XVI,” the ministers said.

The ministers said the Islamophobic terror threat predates this decade, but worsened on Sept. 11, 2001.

“Islamophobia became a source of concern, especially after the Sept. 11, 2001 attacks, but the phenomenon was already there in Western societies in one form or the other," they said.

“It gained further momentum after the Madrid and London bombings. The killing of Dutch film director Theo van Gogh in 2004 was used in a wicked manner by certain quarters to stir up a frenzy against Muslims."


What I find most disturbing is the continuing hue and cry this is a "religion of peace" and those who face the facts of it are "islamophobic". Well, they can call me "islamophobic" all they want--the facts are the facts. There is no way in hell this can be called a "religion of peace" as my "Islam Series" (many posts from guest posters with far more knowledge than I) demonstrates. Anyone trying to sell you that swampland in Florida is lying through their teeth and that includes the leftists, progressives, democrats, etc.


I prefer my freedoms as God granted them, for me and my progeny. Not the "alleged" freedoms women "enjoy" under this barbaric cult founded by a madman. God help us all if this nation doesn't wake up and SOON to the realities.

Guest Poster Today: TSgt John E. Bitzel, 434 OSS/OSAC

I've known this man and called him friend for 20+ years. He retired from the USAF and re-upped during Iraq. He's been back home a little less than a year. He has graciously accepted my offer to occasionally guest post and this is his first offering. This article was forwarded to him; he forwarded it to me. Please forward it to all you care about as well, feel free to cut and paste from here.

Thank you JOHN! You know you're always near and dear to me!

Subject: A VERY IMPORTANT HISTORY LESSON.....PLEASE READ....... SOME OF YOU ARE NOT OLD ENOUGH TO REMEMBER THAT NEARLY EVERY FAMILY IN AMERICA WAS GROSSLY AFFECTED BY WW II . MOST OF YOU DON'T REMEMBER THE RATIONING OF MEAT, SHOES, GASOLINE, AND SUGAR. NO TIRES FOR OUR AUTOMOBILES, AND A SPEED LIMIT OF 35 MILES AN HOUR ON THE ROAD, NOT TO MENTION, NO NEW AUTOMOBILES. READ THIS AND THINK ABOUT HOW WE WOULD REACT TO BEING TAKEN OVER BY FOREIGNERS IN 2007.

This is an EXCELLENT essay . Well thought out and presented.

Historical Significance Sixty-three years ago, Nazi Germany had overrun almost all of Europe and hammered England to the verge of bankruptcy and defeat . The Nazis had sunk more than 400 British ships in their convoys between England and America taking food and war materials .

At that time the US was in an isolationist, pacifist mood, and most Americans wanted nothing to do with the European or the Asian war .

Then along came Pearl Harbor on December 7, 1941 , and in outrage Congress unanimously declared war on Japan , and the following day on Germany , who had not yet attacked us . It was a dicey thing . We had few allies .

France was not an ally, as the Vichy government of France quickly aligned itself with its German occupiers . Germany was certainly not an ally, as Hitler was intent on setting up a Thousand Year Reich in Europe. Japan was not an ally, as it was well on its way to owning and controlling all of Asia.

Together, Japan and Germany had long-range plans of invading Canada and Mexico, as launching pads to get into the United States over our northern and southern borders, after they finished gaining control of Asia and Europe.

America's only allies then were England , Ireland , Scotland , Canada , Australia , and Russia . That was about it. All of Europe, from Norway to Italy (except Russia in the East) was already under the Nazi heel.

The US was certainly not prepared for war. The US had drastically downgraded most of its military forces after WW I because of the depression, so that at the outbreak of WW II, Army units were training with broomsticks because they didn't have guns, and cars with "tank" painted on the doors because they didn't have real tanks A huge chunk of our Navy had just been sunk or damaged at Pearl Harbor.

Britain had already gone bankrupt, saved only by the donation of $600 million in gold bullion in the Bank of England (that was actually the property of Belgium ) given by Belgium to England to carry on the war when Belgium was overrun by Hitler (a little known fact).

Actually, Belgium surrendered in one day, because it was unable to oppose the German invasion, and the Germans bombed Brussels into rubble the next day just to prove they could .

Britain had already been holding out for two years in the face of staggering losses and the near decimation of its Royal Air Force in the Battle of Britain, and was saved from being overrun by Germany only because Hitler made the mistake of thinking the Brits were a relatively minor threat that could be dealt with later. Hitler, first turned his attention to Russia, in the late summer of 1940 at a time when England was on the verge of collapse.

Ironically, Russia saved America 's butt by putting up a desperate fight for two years, until the US got geared up to begin hammering away at Germany .

Russia lost something like 24,000,000 people in the sieges of Stalingrad and Moscow alone . . 90% of them from cold and starvation, mostly civilians, but also more than a 1,000,000 soldiers

Had Russia surrendered, Hitler would have been able to focus his entire war effort against the Brits, then America. If that had happened, the Nazis could possibly have won the war .

All of this has been brought out to illustrate that turning points in history are often dicey things. Now, we find ourselves at another one of those key moments in history.

There is a very dangerous minority in Islam that either has, or wants, and may soon have, the ability to deliver small nuclear, biological, or chemical weapons, almost anywhere in the world .

The Jihadis, the militant Muslims, are basically Nazis in Kaffiyahs -- they believe that Islam, a radically conservative form of Wahhabi Islam, should own and control the Middle East first, then Europe, then the world. To them, all who do not bow to their will of thinking should be killed, enslaved, or subjugated . They want to finish the Holocaust, destroy Israel , and purge the world of Jews . This is their mantra . (goal)

There is also a civil war raging in the Middle East -- for the most part not a hot war, but a war of ideas. Islam is having its Inquisition and its Reformation, but it is not yet known which side will win -- the Inquisitors, or the Reformationists.

If the Inquisition wins, then the Wahhabis, the Jihadis, will control the Middle East, the OPEC oil, and the US , European, and Asian economies.

The techno-industrial economies will be at the mercy of OPEC -- not an OPEC dominated by the educated, rational Saudis of today, but an OPEC dominated by the Jihadis. Do you want gas in your car? Do you want heating oil next winter? Do you want the dollar to be worth anything? You had better hope the Jihad, the Muslim Inquisition, loses, and the Islamic Reformation wins.

If the Reformation movement wins, that is, the moderate Muslims who believe that Islam can respect and tolerate other religions, live in peace with the rest of the world, and move out of the 10th century into the 21st, then the troubles in the Middle East will eventually fade away. A moderate and prosperous Middle East will emerge.

We have to help the Reformation win, and to do that we have to fight the Inquisition, i . e . , the Wahhabi movement, the Jihad, Al Qaeda and the Islamic terrorist movements. We have to do it somewhere. We can't do it everywhere at once. We have created a focal point for the battle at a time and place of our choosing . . . . . . . . in Iraq . Not in New York , not in London , or Paris or Berlin , but in Iraq , where we are doing two important things.

(1) We deposed Saddam Hussein. Whether Saddam Hussein was directly involved in the 9/11 terrorist attack or not, it is undisputed that Saddam has been actively supporting the terrorist movement for decades Saddam is a terrorist! Saddam is, or was, a weapon of mass destruction, responsible for the deaths of probably more than a 1,000,000 Iraqis and 2,000,000 Iranians .

(2) We created a battle, a confrontation, a flash point, with Islamic terrorism in Iraq. We have focused the battle. We are killing bad people, and the ones we get there we won't have to get here. We also have a good shot at creating a democratic, peaceful Iraq, which will be a catalyst for democratic change in the rest of the Middle East, and an outpost for a stabilizing American military presence in the Middle East for as long as it is needed .

WW II, the war with the Japanese and German Nazis, really began with a "whimper" in 1928. It did not begin with Pearl Harbor. It began with the Japanese invasion of China. It was a war for fourteen years before the US joined it. It officially ended in 1945 -- a 17 year war -- and was followed by another decade of US occupation in Germany and Japan to get those countries reconstructed and running on their own a gain . . a 27 year war.

WW II cost the United States an amount equal to approximately a full year's GDP -- adjusted for inflation, equal to about $12 trillion dollars. WW II cost America more than 400,000 soldiers killed in action, and nearly 100,000 still missing in action.

The Iraq war has, so far, cost the United States about $160,000,000,000, which is roughly what the 9/11 terrorist attack cost New York. It has also cost about 3,000 American lives, which is roughly equivilant to lives that the Jihad killed (within the United States) in the 9/11 terrorist attack .

The cost of not fighting and winning WW II would have been unimaginably greater -- a world dominated by Japanese Imperialism and German Nazism .

This is not a 60-Minutes TV show, or a 2-hour movie in which everything comes out okay . The real world is not like that. It is messy, uncertain, and sometimes bloody and ugly. It always has been, and probably always will be .

The bottom line is that we will have to deal with Islamic terrorism until we defeat it, whenever that is. It will not go away if we ignore it .

If the US can create a reasonably democratic and stable Iraq , then we have an ally, like England , in the Middle East, a platform, from which we can work to help modernize and moderate the Middle East. The history of the world is the clash between the forces of relative civility and civilization, and the barbarians clamoring at the gates to conquer the world.

The Iraq War is merely another battle in this ancient and never ending war. Now, for the first time ever, the barbarians are about to get nuclear weapons. Unless some body prevents them from getting them.

We have four options:

1 . We can defeat the Jihad now, before it gets nuclear weapons.

2 . We can fight the Jihad later, after it gets nuclear weapons (which may be as early as next year, if Iran 's progress on nuclear weapons is what Iran claims it is).

3 . We can surrender to the Jihad and accept its dominance in the Middle East now; in Europe in the next few years or decades, and ultimately in America.

OR

4 . We can stand down now, and pick up the fight later when the Jihad is more widespread and better armed, perhaps after the Jihad has dominated France and Germany and possibly most of the rest of Europe. It will, of course, be more dangerous, more expensive, and much bloodier.

If you oppose this war, I hope you like the idea that your children, or grandchildren, may live in an Islamic America under the Mullahs and the Sharia, an America that resembles Iran today.

The history of the world is the history of civilization clashes, cultural clashes. All wars are about ideas, ideas about what society and civilization should be like, and the most determined always win.

Those who are willing to be the most ruthless always win . The pacifists always lose, because the anti-pacifists kill them .

Remember, perspective is every thing, and America 's schools teach too little history for perspective to be clear, especially in the young American mind.

The Cold War lasted from about 1947 at least until the Berlin Wall came down in 1989; forty-two years!

Europe spent the first half of the 19th century fighting Napoleon, and from 1870 to 1945 fighting Germany !

World War II began in 1928, lasted 17 years, plus a ten year occupation, and the US still has troops in Germany and Japan . World War II resulted in the death of more than 50,000,000 people, maybe more than 100,000,000 people, depending on which estimates you accept.

The US has taken more than 3,000 killed in action in Iraq. The US took more than 4,000 killed in action on the morning of June 6, 1944 , the first day of the Normandy Invasion to rid Europe of Nazi Imperialism.

In WW II the US averaged 2,000 KIA a week -- for four years. Most of the individual battles of WW II lost more Americans than the entire Iraq war has done so far

The stakes are at least as high . . A world dominated by representative governments with civil rights, human rights, and personal freedoms . . or a world dominated by a radical Islamic Wahhabi movement, by the Jihad, under the Mullahs and the Sharia (Islamic law) .

It's difficult to understand why the average American does not grasp this. They favor human rights, civil rights, liberty and freedom, but evidently not for Iraqis.

"Peace Activists" always seem to demonstrate here in America , where it's safe.

Why don't we see Peace Activist demonstrating in Iran , Syria , Iraq , Sudan , North Korea , in the places that really need peace activism the most? I'll tell you why! They would be killed!

The liberal mentality is supposed to favor human rights, civil rights, democracy, multiculturalism, diversity, etc . , but if the Jihad wins, wherever the Jihad wins, it is the end of civil rights, human rights, democracy, multiculturalism, diversity, etc.

Americans who oppose the liberation of Iraq are coming down on the side of their own worst enemy!

Please consider passing along copies of this article to students in high school, college and university as it contains information about the American past that is very meaningful today -- history about America that very likely is completely unknown by them (and their instructors, too). By being denied the facts of our history, they are at a decided disadvantage when it comes to reasoning and thinking through the issues of today. They are prime targets for misinformation campaigns beamed at enlisting them in causes and beliefs that are special interest agenda driven

Power to the People at Work

I mentioned in the Friday Potpourri (March 30, 2007) about the six MN imams trying to sue the passengers that reported their suspicious activity prior to and immediately after boarding a US Air flight in November, 2006. Brigitte Gabriel (author of "Because They Hate"), at American Congress for Truth, sent out an action alert to protect these people. From that, we got Michelle Malkin's already classic "I Am John Doe". Rep. Pearce quickly drew up HR 1640 to protect AMERICAN CITIZENS from being sued from this intimidation tactic, the language was included in Rep. Schuster's HR 1401 and the bill passed the House with the overwhelming vote of 304-121. Yes, 121 of YOUR REPRESENTATIVES voted AGAINST protecting AMERICAN CITIZENS from terrorist intimidation tactics.

Here's the email I received from Ms. Gabriel regarding the passage of this bill:

Protecting John Doe bill passed

Thanks to the thousands of you who acted immediately after receiving our action alert, by writing and calling your elected officials nationwide. Your calls, emails and faxes have swamped our elected officials and your action paid off. This is the power of people being informed and coming together, as one voice to take action in a timely manner. I cannot be more proud and honored to have such an active membership. Thank you for your involvement and your activism.

The language for HR1640 was put into Rep. Shuster's bill HR1401. Rep. Pearce's leadership on this issue was central to this language being put into HR1401 which passed the House overwhelmingly by a vote of 304 to121.

"This is a big victory for all Americans," Shuster said. "No American should ever be sued because they tried to stop a terrorist act. No American should be forced to second guess a decision to alert authorities that could save the lives of others."

The Republican motion to recommit H.R. 1401, the Rail and Public Transportation Security Act of 2007, provides that any person who makes a voluntary disclosure regarding suspicious activity that constitutes a possible threat to transportation security to appropriate security and law enforcement authorities shall be immune from civil liability for such disclosure.

The amendment protects any such disclosure relating to threats to transportation systems, passenger safety or security, or possible acts of terrorism.

The amendment also shields transportation systems and employees that take reasonable actions to mitigate perceived threats.

The amendment is retroactive to activities that took place on or after November 20, 2006 - the date of the Minneapolis incident involving six Islamic leaders who were removed from a U.S. Airways flight after they were observed acting suspiciously.

Finally, the motion authorizes courts to award attorneys fees to defendants with immunity. To find out the list of those who voted for the bill and against click here.

It is so vitally important that we tell our elected representatives exactly what we think about legislation that will protect America.

Without concerned citizens like you, American Congress for Truth would not be able to make a difference for our nation's security. We at ACT are dedicated to informing and empowering Americans to make a difference in protecting our country from evil and those who wish to do us harm.

Thank you for your activism and patriotism. Thank you for helping me protect America , the dream that became my address.

Let my nation rise.

Brigitte Gabriel

IT WORKS, PEOPLE...LET YOUR VOICE BE HEARD AND QUITE BEING PART OF THE PROBLEM BY BEING PART OF THE SILENT MAJORITY!

Well, Rosie's at it again! At least Lorie Byrd has it right in her March 29, 2007 Townhall Column, "Rosie O'Donnell is Bad News", linked here: http://townhall.com/columnists/LorieByrd/2007/03/30/rosie_o_donnell_is_bad_news

Which of course, brings me to the homosexual propaganda these days. I have MANY gay friends. My gay friends, however, know and have known since we met (some over 20 years ago), that I in NO WAY condone or approve of their lifestyle. That being said, they refrained then and have continued to refrain from "flaming" (their term, not mine) in my and my children's presence. However, homosexuals like Rosie give gays a bad name and leave a rotten taste in the mouth of anyone confronted with homosexuality. Do I agree with gay marriage? Unequivocally, NO. Nor do I approve of gays forcing their lifestyle and agenda down my throat, and when I or anyone else (including General Pace) voice an opinion, something called "free speech" in this country, we're hounded. TOO BAD. Call me fundamental all you like, the fact remains I, like General Pace, believe homosexual behavior is immoral. It's in the Bible. End of story.

And for the gays that want to force their agenda on youth groups (such as the Cub/Boy Scouts) and subsequently THINK they're ruining an institution...get over it. I was a scout leader and had I known another scout leader was gay and was attempting contact with my son or any of the boys under my care, I would have ordered my son and all the boys under my care to avoid that leader and been extremely explicit as to why. Then I would have sent letters to the parents explaining my actions. This is called protecting the children and being a responsible leader of children.

Over at moonbat central (also known as the GOP.com blog), the lunatics are crawling out of the woodwork. Seems they think Congress is doing the right thing in loading up the emergency troop funding bill with pork (remember all those Democrats that ran for re-election on the platform of cutting pork out of the budget), bi-partisan cooperation (have you seen any of that yet?) and support of the troops (so much support the troops are going to have to go without the funds they need!). Then, of course, Congress goes on spring break. Guess they don't think there IS a need for emergency funding for the troops--the only emergency is for the pork in the bills. THANK GOD BUSH IS GOING TO VETO THIS TRAVESTY!

Moonbat central is still trotting out the old chestnut, "Bush lied, our kids died". Did anyone ever stop to think: "Democrats lie, babies die" (abortion and stem cell research)? Or, with reference to the above paragraph, "Democrats lie, troops die"? Not once have any of these moonbats admitted going to war was supported by their Democrats as well as the Republicans...it was a bi-partisan AUMF. I could go on and on. If you want a good laugh, though, go over there and sign in. FAIR WARNING, THOUGH--BE PREPARED FOR TOTAL INCOHERENCE! Here's the link: http://www.gop.com/Blog/BlogPost.aspx?BlogPostID=2687.

Also a caveat: if you do sign in, DO NOT USE ANY PERSONAL INFORMATION! They are stalkers and like trying to infect your computers with nasty viruses. That's how far they'll go to promote their communist/socialist/fascist agenda. They will not answer questions and everytime you get them pinned to a wall, they bolt. They can't answer because their propaganda machines don't teach how to answer. They will attempt every diversionary tactic in the books...much like Billary. Be prepared! If you really want to toy with them, though, continue to ask them questions, hammer the questions in. Also, demand they cite their sources and question their personal integrity. Be prepared for sexual harassment, name calling, etc. And, above all, keep in mind, THIS is what our men and women in uniform are fighting and dying for--their right to spout this nonsense. And keep in mind the shameful protests across the country of filthy, unwashed protestors, thinking they live in the 60's, burning our flag and our soldiers and our president in effigy.

That's it for this week! Stay safe and see you soon!

Winston Churchill Quotes

  • A prisoner of war is a man who tries to kill you and fails, and then asks you not to kill him.
  • Although personally I am quite content with existing explosives, I feel we must not stand in the path of improvement.
  • Although prepared for martyrdom, I preferred that it be postponed.
  • Attitude is a little thing that makes a big difference.
  • Battles are won by slaughter and maneuver. The greater the general, the more he contributes in maneuver, the less he demands in slaughter.
  • Danger - if you meet it promptly and without flinching - you will reduce the danger by half. Never run away from anything. Never!
  • I always seem to get inspiration and renewed vitality by contact with this great novel land of yours which sticks up out of the Atlantic.
  • I am an optimist. It does not seem too much use being anything else.
  • I have nothing to offer but blood, toil, tears and sweat.
  • I like a man who grins when he fights.
  • I was only the servant of my country and had I, at any moment, failed to express her unflinching resolve to fight and conquer, I should at once have been rightly cast aside.
  • If you have an important point to make, don't try to be subtle or clever. Use a pile driver. Hit the point once. Then come back and hit it again. Then hit it a third time-a tremendous whack.
  • In war as in life, it is often necessary when some cherished scheme has failed, to take up the best alternative open, and if so, it is folly not to work for it with all your might.
  • It is no use saying, 'We are doing our best.' You have got to succeed in doing what is necessary.
  • Moral of the Work. In war: resolution. In defeat: defiance. In victory: magnanimity. In peace: goodwill.
  • Never in the field of human conflict was so much owed by so many to so few.
  • Never, never, never give up.
  • No folly is more costly than the folly of intolerant idealism.
  • One ought never to turn one's back on a threatened danger and try to run away from it. If you do that, you will double the danger. But if you meet it promptly and without flinching, you will reduce the danger by half. Never run away from anything. Never!
  • Socialism is a philosophy of failure, the creed of ignorance, and the gospel of envy, its inherent virtue is the equal sharing of misery.
  • Success is not final, failure is not fatal: it is the courage to continue that counts.
  • The first quality that is needed is audacity.
  • The nose of the bulldog has been slanted backwards so that he can breathe without letting go.
  • The truth is incontrovertible, malice may attack it, ignorance may deride it, but in the end; there it is.
  • There is no such thing as public opinion. There is only published opinion.
  • These are not dark days: these are great days - the greatest days our country has ever lived.
