People only bother us if we bother them. <br /><br />Rubbish. Evil men seek to destroy men, whether they like it or not. What we call evil (which is real) is really self-annihilation gone wild. It's metastasized hate and destruction. <br /><br />That's what Islamism is: EVIL.

Interestingly stated, but true in ...A_Nonny_Mouse,<br /><br />Interestingly stated, but true in the main. There is this idea that almost every ill in the world started in this country. Sadly much of this is perpetrated by a public school system that is more indoctrination than education. This is why we see so few people who know their own history much less world history. Thank you Howard Zinn and the progressives who took control of our supposed education system.<br />It does not matter whether one studies religions, Western history, Eastern history or world history one finds most of these ills, including slavery blamed on this country, existed long before we became a country and those foreign cultures had centuries long acquaintance with these ills. Why do the Bible and the Koran both mention slaves? Why are there Sunnis and Shias and what created the schism in Islam?<br />We, as a country, have at least tried to address these ills, even at the outset of this country. Even remembering that many citizens came from countries that had a rich history of evil and in some cases human sacrifice. Human sacrifice was practiced in both North and South America.<br />As I stated before Jefferson tried to address slavery in the Declaration of Independence and the Founders did as well in the Constitution. The reasoning behind a "more prefect union."<br /><br />It is hard to take RPW seriously because he demonstrates a true lack of history and historical perspective and an attempt to insinuate Modernism into a place where it does not have value.<br /><br />ANM Tough, but right in the main.Dennishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14962996070458991675noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8078379512095504946.post-91656764555094498212016-07-31T12:12:16.033-07:002016-07-31T12:12:16.033-07:00Ron Paul Wannabee said

"<br /><br />So the Syrians being bombed in their own country by their own government escape to Germany and "act out" because of women in bathing suits, that's what you're saying? <br /><br />Uh, no. <br /><br />The Middle East is a hellhole, and the "hell" is due solely to Mohammed and the vile "religion" and bloodthirsty "god" he invented. Period.<br /><br />The whole point of Islam is Might Makes Right. They claim it's about "submission" to the divine plan, but it's really about DOMINATION, and who gets to be the Absolute Master over whom. It's a degraded and dysfunctional society that can only "work" when there's a brutal warlord willing to commit atrocities to keep the "peace" of Islam from erupting all over his home turf. <br /><br />Read about the 1400-year history of Islam, dear R-P-W. In the very-very-very beginning, ol' Mohammed declared that neighboring tribes who declined his friendly offer to convert to Islam, surrender their possessions and property to him, and keep their heads attached, were by their refusal "offending Allah" and thus Mohammed's Brave and Noble Goons were justified in slaughtering them wholesale and taking their women and children as slaves. This same pattern has continued without change for a millenium-and-a-half. <br /><br />"Reacting to aggression" ? Pish-tush. Pfui. Nonsense.

Westerners labeling these indigenous as Islamist extremists doesn't change that basic fact. Here, Stu is looking at the other side of the coin, though: immigrants who leave, rather than stay, in their own country, i.e. Syria, but the case applies equally for Libyan or Iraqi or other ME/NA countries where residents want to get away from Western bombing and regime change meddling; they cannot, so they leave. Where do/can they go to? Well, towards the societies/cultures that produced their misery in the first place, to a degree! In other words, Merkel, Obama and NATO (all the same in their eyes) are both the cause and the solution (in their eyes) to their plight, that of not having a place to live in harmony somewhere, anywhere. While this explanation excuses no ones' actions or crimes on an individual scale, it does place their actions in a different geopolitical context. My concern is that no one in this discussion is looking at the root causes at all. If they continue, if NATO continues to bomb and Obama & his lackeys (e.g. Merkel) continue policies of attempted regime change utilizing ISIL & others, the residents will naturally be inclined to look for a better place to live than THEIR OWN COUNTRY!Ron Paul Wannabeenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8078379512095504946.post-85696558072090820202016-07-29T15:26:57.095-07:002016-07-29T15:26:57.095-07:00"During an interview with Woodward in July, t..."During an interview with Woodward in July, the president said, "We can absorb a terrorist attack.

As Obama bravely...Anonymous Trigger Warning said... As Obama bravely noted ..."We [sic] can absorb another terrorist attack."<br /><br />I was curious about that, see it goes to a 2010 quote from Woodward:<br />http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2010/09/21/AR2010092106706.html<br />---<br />Woodward's book portrays Obama and the White House as barraged by warnings about the threat of terrorist attacks on U.S. soil and confronted with the difficulty in preventing them. During an interview with Woodward in July, the president said, "We can absorb a terrorist attack. We'll do everything we can to prevent it, but even a 9/11, even the biggest attack ever . . . we absorbed it and we are stronger." <br />---<br /><br />It is an interesting quote, apparently 2009, nearly 7 years ago. Obama is saying the standard for safety can't be perfect, but our resilience, our ability to carry on even under the worst terroristic attack in our history.<br /><br />As well, it is understandable that Edward Snowden should be rightfully seen as a traitor, for exposing the otherwise illegal monitoring power of the NSA, and its nongovernmental subcontractors to do anything within their power to expose terroristic plots before they happen.<br /><br />And whether Hillary Clinton or Donald Trump is elected president in November, the threat of terrorists guarantees an otherwise compliant citizenry who consider this a harmless loss of privacy for innocent people, but to help protected from dangerous men with box cutters, guns, or trucks as the case may be.<br /><br />In the conspiracy world there's also the idea of "false flag", so if a vocal minority of citizens start getting uppity and demand illegal spying be stopped, an autoritarian goverment merely has to identify a few unstable youth of the correct ethnic identity, and plant some provocateurs who help radialize these youth, and look the other way as they plan their attack, and then when the public cries in fear and outrage, the authoritarian establishment quickly offers calming plans about how future such attacks can be prevented, with just a few more losses of freedom and privacy by citizens. And the vocal minority who wanted the opposite direction will be effectively silenced, and even blamed, because they were the ones fighting against these high tech ways of catch radicals.<br /><br />I'm not a paranoid person by nature, mainly because it seems hard to imagine secrets being kept, but I can see how Obama's position "We can absorb it" is a voice against fear-mongering, against ideals that says "The government can protect you" which Conservatives always laugh at, except when they have imagined enemies like terrorists.<br /><br />I quite sure that Trump's rhetoric is destructive, and will create the exact thing he claims he's against. He thinks he can encourage hatred against Muslims, and that this won't have any negative consequences to Muslims living in America. He wants to keep out more Muslims while Muslim populations already live here. He thinks we can spy on Muslims because they're Muslims and can catch radicals before they act, and not create a backlash of us-vs-them that won't further divide our nation.<br /><br />Anyway, I'm not sure who I should most fear, but I'd prefer Obama's approach - terrorists like IS/ISIS/ISIL or whatever are amateur bullies who can and will destroy themselves by their own brutality, if we let them. And we just raise their status by promising to spy on and harrass millions of Muslims to protect ourselves from the 0.00001%, ultimately less the common criminals which exist in all races and cultures.<br /><br />Multiculturalism certainly won't save us, but at least mixing us up in the world helps some of us accept its a battle between the violent and the nonviolent, not between races, ethnic groups and religions.Ares Olympushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09726811306826601686noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8078379512095504946.post-61579767547023296852016-07-29T13:21:35.551-07:002016-07-29T13:21:35.551-07:00Come January, we face the prospect of three of the...Come January, we face the prospect of three of the most powerful western countries being headed by cunt--who have produced a total of precisely one child among them.
