DEMOCRATS CLAIM TERRORISTS AREN’T MUSLIMS

 

Every time terrorists commit some atrocity, Obama and Clinton rush to the mike and loudly proclaim that the terrorist activity has nothing to do with Islam.  The Paris attack is typical.  Every day since 129 people were slaughtered in Paris, Obama and Clinton have been telling the world that it doesn’t have to do with Islam.  After all, Islam is a religion of peace, right?

As soon as you hear that comment, be assured the speaker doesn’t know what they are talking about.  Also, be assured they are not qualified to lead anybody.  They will never be capable of leading us to deal effectively with the terrorist issue.  Here is why:
-Islam does not mean peace.  It means submission under duress.

-Islam is not primarily a religion.  It is primarily an ideology for a totalitarian governmental system bent on world domination. 

-The terrorist groups like ISIS are all anchored in the authoritative literature of Islam…the Quran, the Hadith, and Sharia Law.  They study it and are devoted to the directives it contains.  They study the life of Muhammad and Islamic history.  They are especially devoted to Islamic eschatology.  It drives their every move.  They are married to it.  They believe they are bringing it to completion.  No muslims are more devoted to Islamic ideology than Islamic Jihadists.  So, to argue that they are not “real muslims” is a futile and dangerous argument.

-We cannot deal successfully with Islamic Jihadists unless we understand them, their ideology, and their history.  For example, they follow Muhammad’s strategy of negotiation.  If we don’t realize that strategy, we will never be successful in making an agreement with muslims.  Look at the deal we made with Iran.  Iran followed the strategy perfectly and we lost on every issue because we refused to study Islamic history.  Somebody in the State Department needs to study Muhammad’s strategy of “hudna”.

-Our leaders and media “experts” always seem to be caught off guard by the jihadist brutal tactics.  That’s because they haven’t read Islamic history.  Their tactics are repeats of previous centuries.  The tactics are straight out of the practices of their founder and subsequent leaders.  There is nothing new.

 

Our leaders need to realize that nobody believes their claim that the terrorists aren’t muslims.  And, their stubborn denial of reality is costing people their lives, because they refuse to understand the opposition.  The current situation is suicidal.

HERE IS MY TAKE ON THE BENGHAZI HEARING THAT TOOK PLACE YESTERDAY:

BENGHAZI HEARING HIGHLIGHTS

Yesterday, I watched hours of the testimony of Hillary Clinton before the House Benghazi Committee.  Clinton’s five Democratic body guards want us to believe nothing new was discovered.  Not true!  We now know Clinton lied about the video being the cause of the raid.  She did so apparently to protect Obama’s presidential run that occurred in November of 2012.  We learned she is not qualified to be president due to terrible judgment. Most importantly, we heard her take responsibility for the disaster, then spend 11 hours telling why she is not responsible.  She blamed everyone she could think of including the security unit of the State Department, her incompetent aides, the “fog of war”, etc..  But, the person who shoulders the most blame according to her is Ambassador Chris Stevens.  She spent hours telling us that it was his fault that he died.  He made the decisions that led to his slaughter and torture.  Never mind his many requests for tighter security, Clinton placed the blame for all four deaths on the ambassador.  She took no responsibility in reality.  When asked exactly what she was responsible for, her answer was laughable.  She again pointed to the ambassador’s wrong choices.

HRC is not capable of serving as President.  She wouldn’t have time to do the job.  Her entire adult life has been a series of scandals.  Her major occupation has been to dodge authorities.  Barry Sanders doesn't have her moves to avoid prosecution.  That would not change if she moved back into the White House.

JOE PAGS SHOW-ISLAM IN OUR SCHOOLS

Yesterday, I was driving home and was listening to the Joe Pags Show which is apparently broadcast nationwide.  He was reporting on a school district in the south where middle school students were being instructed in Islam.  The report reminded me of a report out of Florida where the same thing was being done.  It was in a world history class and the students were focusing on Islam in particular.  The teacher was covering the 5 Pillars of Islam which begins with the Shahadah or Declaration of Faith.  The students were being instructed to write the Shahadah.  In Florida, the students were verbally reciting the Shahadah.

The report sent up red flags to me.  As I have told you before, I spent 6 years inside Islam beginning in 2000.  In those years I attended the Jummah Prayer Meetings every Friday where I met with muslim men, listened to hundreds of messages by various muslim teachers, read tons of muslim materials, listened to thousands of passages from the Quran and Hadith, and spoke with the participants.  I saw many men become muslims and be accepted into the faith.  I saw how it is done.  To become a muslim is very simple.  All it takes is a sincere recitation of the Shahadah!  That is it.  You can check it out for yourself. Just Google "How does one become a muslim?"  There will be hundreds of sites which all say the same thing.  Many of the sites make a big deal of how simple it is to become a muslim.

Let's go back to the class rooms where Islam is being taught.  Why are the students being instructed to recite or write the Shahadah?  It is because these are not informative classes.  This is muslim evangelism!  Every student that recites (or writes) the Shahadah is now viewed by muslims worldwide as new converts to Islam because they have done what is needed to convert.  Muslims in the mosques in those two states are absolutely giddy.  They are pulling off the biggest ruse any muslim could imagine.  They are using the secular educational system in the U.S. to win thousands of converts when no other faith community is even being mentioned.  Remember, one of the greatest victories a muslim can have is to outwit a kafir (infidel).  They have outwitted two entire states! This victory is comparable to the Iran deal in magnitude for muslims.

Now for the horror...Once a person converts to Islam, there is no turning back.  To do so is considered apostacy.  The penalty for apostacy, according to Islam, is death.  Therefore, if any of those students who recited the Shahadah, were to become a member of another faith community, they would immediately be under a death sentence for apostacy.  Let's say one of the students were to get baptized at church or become a Mormon.  They would immediately have literally millions of muslims more than willing to kill them and do so with enthusiasm.  Are the parents of those children being informed of this?  Not a chance.

I related these facts to Joe Pags on the air.  He asked if I thought the teachers were aware of these things.  I answered that the teachers were just tools of the ruse.  They were doing what they were told to do.  The strings are being pulled way up the adminsrative system... probably at the state level.  That is how Islam has gotten so much influence in our jail and school systems across the country.  They have put their advocates into very high positions of leadership and are controlling the curriculum taught in our schools. 

If I were a parent of a student in one of those schools,  I would sprint, not walk, to the school and yank my child out of the school until they cease this muslim evangelism.  If every parent does the same, they would get the idea that its unacceptable for schools to be tools for those who have sworn to instill Sharia Law as the Law of the Land in the USA.  Remember, as I've told you in previous blogs, Islam is not primarily a religion.  It is ideology for a totalitarian governmental system, with a religious component, bent on world domination.  Protect our children.  It is no mystery why we have young people leaving our land to fight for ISIS.  Their indoctrination is beginning in our schools.

WHY A DEAL WITH IRAN WON'T WORK

Currently, the Congress is debating the deal worked out with Iran by John Kerry and the President.  No deal should be considered by anyone who does not understand two words:  HUDNA AND TAQIYYA.  If you don't understand those words, you aren't qualified to negotiate with Iran or any other entity governed by Islamic clerics.  Hudna and Taqiyya are fundamental Islamic strategies governing how muslims deal with agreements with Kafirs (infidels).  They have been a part of Islam since the days of Muhammad.

Here is the history of Hudna:  When Muhammad and his small band of followers were forced to move from Mecca to Yathrib (Medina) due to the negative reaction to his message and the loss of protection due to the death of his wife and uncle, he set up raiding bands to rob caravans going in and out of Mecca .  The move was called the Hijra.  The bands were initially successful and raised finances for Muhammad's followers.  But, the leaders of Mecca eventually responded and attacked Muhammad's forces.  When Muhammad saw he was losing the conflict, he negotiated a treaty with his opponents in Mecca.  He agreed to cease the raids if the opponents would observe a peace.  Muhammad used the calm to regroup his forces, build his arsenal, and plan a surprise attack.  When the forces in Mecca were enjoying the peace and calm, Muhammad attacked and inflicted a crushing blow.  The leaders of Mecca cried foul.  Muhammad had violated the treaty.  Muhammad's response was that he had outsmarted them with "Hudna".  After all, they had rejected his teachings and deserved what they received because they were Kafirs.  Hudna has been an vital doctrine of Islamic diplomacy ever since.  The bottom line is that Iran has no intention of observing the agreement.  That would violate centuries of policy.  Those who negotiate Hudna are seen in Iran as heroes who outsmarted the ignorant Kafirs and followed the example of Muhammad.. which is the most righteous thing a muslim can do.  So, the agreement has no value.  

Taqiyya is directly related to Hudna.  It is the righteous deception to advance Islam.  It is the ancient practice of lying to Kafirs to advance Islam.  To do so is the height of righteousness because Muhammad did it.  For example, if a muslim goes on TV and says Islam means peace, that's Taqiyya.  The Arabic root of "Islam" is not Salaam, but Aslama, which means submission and surrender.  Islam means submission, not peace.  But, a devout muslim can deceive Kafirs if they perceive it will benefit Islam.  It is morally fine for them to do so because it has been practiced for centuries and is a vital part of their mores.  You can see how the practice of Taqiyya would impact negotiations.

HAPPY FOURTH OF JULY! IT'S TIME FOR REAL FREEDOM

My first thought on this special day recognizing our freedoms is that we need a second Free Speech Movement.  Campuses across the country are publishing their restrictions on phrases that are outlawed.  The Gay Lobby, giddy over the narrow victory by the Supreme Court, are demanding that all opposition to their position stand down immediately or they will unleash the Anti- First Amendment Police.  The military continues to bash expressions of faith on the part of believers.  We are looking more and more like Canada which views any view other than far left as hate speech.

This blog was established, in part, because of my positive experience of living through the days of Free Speech.  It was the most intellectually stimulating period of my life.  Everyone had a chance to express their views without being gagged and prosecuted.  The only parameters were that you could speak your mind about anything as long as you allowed others the same privilege.  It gave rise to a period of real education.  Now we have been reduced to tax payer funded indoctrination controlled by a small band of pro totalitarian zealots.

I'm calling for a return to the days when university and high school students demand freedom of speech and expression.  Let people say what they are thinking without the fear of the reprisals by those too ignorant to defend their ideas.

The greatest objection to free speech seems to be our desire not to offend someone's feelings, especially someone who is "more vulnerable".  That objection has descended into an excuse to gag anyone who disagrees with the pro totalitarian zealots idea of what is politically correct.  The situation has become so extreme that we are now banning real scientific data and vital information from reaching the public.

The 2016 presidential campaign is underway.  I would love to see a "free speech campaign" where any candidate had the opportunity to express themselves freely and let the chips fall where they will.  Now that would really be worth watching! A by-product would be that voter participation would soar.

For several years since moving to Texas, I’ve thought about drawing up a cowboy code to be handed out to those who move here so they would understand the ways of the people here.  Then I saw the following in an old building in Gruene, Texas.  I realized I didn’t need to draw up anything new.  It was right before me.  So, I’m passing along to you… Here it is:

THE ARMENIAN GENOCIDE RETURNS

 

 

The Armenians made their home in the Caucasus region of Eurasia for some 3,000 years.  For some of that time, the kingdom of Armenia was independent.  In the 4th century, it became the first nation to make Christianity its official religion.  During the 15th century, Armenia was absorbed into the Ottoman Empire.

 

The Ottomans were Muslims.  They permitted religious minorities like the Armenians to maintain some automomy, but subjected them to unequal and unjust treatment such as super high taxes and the loss of political and legal rights.  They became "dhimmis".  That's the Muslim word for what we would consider serfs.

 

In spite of the obstacles, they survived well and that angered the Muslims.  The Ottoman caliphate suspected that the Armenians would be more loyal to Turkey's Christian neighbors.  These suspicions grew more acute as the Ottoman Empire crumbled.  At the end of the 19th century, the Turkish Sultan Abdul Hamid II was infuriated by the Armenian campaign to win basic civil rights.  He promised to teach them a lesson.  Turkish troops and the Muslim population massacred hundreds of thousands of Armenians in the mid 1890's.

 

In 1908, a new government came to power in Turkey.  The "Young Turks" seized power and established a more modern government.  The Armenians soon learned the Young Turks saw Christian non-Turks as a threat.  In 1914, the Young Turks entered World War I on the side of Germany.  The Ottoman religious leaders declared a holy Jihad against all Christians except their allies.  The leaders spread rumors that the Armenians were eager to fight for the other side and pushed for the "removal" of the Armenians.

 

The genocide began April 24, 1915 when several hundred Armenian intellectuals were executed.  The Young Turks created the "Special Organization" which consisted of "killing squads" and "butcher battalions" to liquidate Christians.  They used various methods, including death marches, to carry out the extermination of Armenians.  Muslim families moved into the homes of the dead and seized their property.  There were about 2 million Armenians in Turkey in the 1890's.  By 1922, after the genocide, there were about 388,000 Armenians left.  Over 1.5 million had been killed.

 

Today, the Turkish government does not acknowledge the enormity of these events.  They deny it happened.  In Turkey, it is illegal to talk about the Armenian genocide.  The U.S. federal government still refuses to acknowledge the genocide of the Armenians to placate the Turks.  April 24, 2015 is the 100th Anniversary of the start of the genocide and our leaders still refuse to admit it for political reasons.  The real horror is that, during the genocide, nobody tried to stop it!  The media did little to report it.  The world stood by and let it happen.  How important is that?  Here is how important it is:  When Hitler was presenting his plan to exterminate the Jews to his group of advisors, and he was challenged by them due to the possible backlash, he responded that he had no fear of a backlash.  Why?  Because, he said, nobody did a thing to stop what happened to the Armenians earlier in the century.  And he was convinced nobody would stop the genocide of the Jews.

 

It's happening again.  We see Christians being exterminated throughout the Muslim world...crucified, burned to death, beheaded, shot in the head, enslaved. etc....and nothing is being done.  Our own President thinks Christians deserve it because he has heard Christians say "unloving remarks" about Muslims. 

 

I want to thank HISTORY.com for many of the details of this blog.  A few in the media are exposing what happened to the Armenians.  We must not let it happen again!

In many cities and states muslims are calling for special consideration for their customs and mores including Sharia Law.  In Florida, the state education standards have been more than accomodating as we saw last month.  How should we respond to their demands while we watch Islamic faithful beheading, crucifying, enslaving, and attacking kafirs (infidels)? Here is an example of a polite, thoughtful response:

 

MAYOR REFUSES TO REMOVE PORK FROM SCHOOL CANTEEN MENU... EXPLAINS WHY 
 
Muslim parents demanded the abolition of pork in all the school canteens of a Montreal suburb. 

The mayor of the Montreal suburb of Dorval has refused, and the town clerk sent a note to all parents to explain why... 

“Muslims must understand that they have to adapt to Canada and Quebec, its customs, its traditions, its way of life, because that's where they chose to immigrate. 

“They must understand that they have to integrate and learn to live in Quebec. 

“They must understand that it is for them to change their lifestyle, not the Canadians who so generously welcomed them. 

“They must understand that Canadians are neither racist nor xenophobic, they accepted many immigrants before Muslims (whereas the reverse is not true, in that Muslim states do not accept non-Muslim immigrants). 

“That no more than other nations, Canadians are not willing to give up their identity, their culture. 

“And if Canada is a land of welcome, it's not the Mayor of Dorval who welcomes foreigners, but the Canadian-Quebecois people as a whole. 

“Finally, they must understand that in Canada (Quebec) with its Judeo-Christian roots, Christmas trees, churches and religious festivals, religion must remain in the private domain. 

The municipality of Dorval was right to refuse any concessions to Islam and Sharia. 

“For Muslims who disagree with secularism and do not feel comfortable in Canada, there are 57 beautiful Muslim countries in the world, most of them under-populated and ready to receive them with open arms in accordance with Shariah. 

“If you left your country for Canada, and not for other Muslim countries, it is because you have considered that life is better in Canada than elsewhere. 

“Ask yourself the question, just once, “Why is it better here in Canada than where you come from?” 

“A canteen with pork is part of the answer.” 

 

WHY DOES OBAMA REFUSE TO CONNECT ISLAM WITH TERRORISM?

 

For months reporters have asked why Obama doesn’t use terms like “Islamic Terrorism”.  Instead, he uses terms like “violent extremism”.  If those reporters took the time to do their homework, the answer is crystal clear.

 

On June 4, 2009, Obama gave his famous speech at al-Azhar University in Cairo which is the chief center for Sunni Islamic learning in the world.  In that speech, near the beginning of his presidency, he said, “I consider it part of my responsibility as President of the United States to fight against negative stereotypes of Islam wherever they appear”.  He announced a partnership between America and Islam.  He went on to say, “Throughout history, Islam has demonstrated through words and deeds the possibilities of religious tolerance… Islam is not part of the problem in combating violent extremism—it is an important part of promoting peace.”

 

For the first time in America’s history, a president bestowed upon Islam a privileged position above all other ideologies.  It was seen in Islamic circles as the American President announcing he is now subservient to Islam’s political agenda.  Islam has a word for such subservient vocabulary.  They call it dhimma, and non-Muslims who accept subservience to Islam are called dhimmis.  In Cairo, Obama indicated to the Islamic world that he was a dhimmi.  After the speech, Wafa Sultan, an Arab psychiatrist, wrote that the President’s comments, “make my work and that of others who speak up against intolerant Islamic doctrines more challenging.  He undermines this mission by placating abusive, xenophobic policies and enabling those within the Islamic world to subjugate others, to coerce others to its beliefs, and to continue these pursuits with his blessing.”

 

In the same speech, Obama proclaimed numerous examples of America’s historical ties with Islam which were absurd.  For example, he tried to paint Thomas Jefferson as an admirer of Islam because he kept a Koran in his home.  In 1801 Jefferson waged war against the Islamic Barbary states of north Africa in order to stop the piracy of ships and the enslavement of more than a million Christians.  The U.S. ambassador to the territory told Jefferson that Muslims justify their slaughter and enslavement of non-Muslims through the “Laws of the Prophet” and the Koran. Jefferson kept a Koran in order to understand the hostile nature of Islam, not because he admired it.  Obama also said that there were almost 7 million Muslims in America.  The next year (2010) the Pew Forum on Religion and Public Life put the number at 2.6 million.

 

So, to understand Obama’s refusal to link ISIS (ISIL), and other Islamic Jihadists with Islam, we need only to re-read his 2009 speech to Islamic leaders.  In that speech he announced that his mission is to defend Islam.  His mission is to paint Islam as a promoter of peace in the world.  As one who spent 6 years attending Muslim Jummah Prayer meetings every week due to my assignment, let me explain how Islam views “peace”. “Islam” means submission.  “Peace” means that all opposition is dead or enslaved.  How does that happen?  By “Jihad”-holy war which puts all the world in submission to Sharia Law.  Then and only then is there peace.  It’s that simple.  There is only one path to peace.  It is worldwide war against the kafirs (infidels) and we are in the middle of that war now.

 

To understand Obama’s addiction to the term, “violent extremism”, we only need to once again look at the speech in Cairo.  That’s the term he used for Islamic Jihad in the speech and he won’t change it now no matter how absurd it appears to be.

 

Here is another way Obama and the media misrepresent Islam.  They would have us believe that folks like ISIS, Boko Haram, Hamas, the Muslim Brotherhood, etc. are the fringe element of Islam and most of the rest of Muslims are “moderate”.  The truth is that the opposite is true.  These “extremists” are the heart and core of Islam.  They are the ones who diligently hold to the teachings and example of the Prophet and to Sharia Law.  We shouldn’t refer to them as “extremists”.  They are the “Islamic core” or “Islamic base”.  They drive the ideology of the totalitarian governmental system known as Islam.  The “moderates” are the ones on the fringe.  How do I know this?  Due to my assignment, I was inside Islam during 9/11.
