To the Mayor of Manchester: The Suicide Bomber Was a Muslim

Several things occurred in my life have energized the Muslim world and brought it back from sliding into irrelevancy. All due to Western cowardice!

1) The success of the Iranian Evolution and the cowardly US response to it. Its continuing success by continuing to exist again by the continuing of US cowardice & European cowardice & assistance. Throw in Zero’s nuclear treaty and it gets another boost.

2) The cowardly US & European behavior to Israel & the Palestinians. A Europe of another day would at the first challenge gone in and shelled a harbor and rounded up those who challenged it and shot them.

3) USSR’s defeat in Afghanistan, Stalin would not have lost!
Yes the Afghan warlords won because of our help, but we stupidly ceded the “the victors” role to our surrogate Pakistan. Leaving them with an undeserved and unearned role as an Islamic nation that defeated the West (to them Russia is West!)

4) Our restraining of Israel in its wars with Syria, Egypt & Lebanon in some cases Jordan. Israel should have been allowed to impose unconditional surrender on Syria & Egypt in both the 67 War & the Yom Kippur War, those wars ended with both Syrian & Egyptian armies surrounded. We forced Israel to let the PLO escape to Tunisia. The PLO should have been destroyed & Arafat and the PLO leadership shot.

5) Our continuing to pretend that the PLO, Hamas, etc. want to coexist with Israel. Every incoming administration goes through this sham dance.

6) Our allowing anti-Semitism to grow in European allies with no very stern rebuke from us. Now allowing it to grow internally, particularly on our college causes again no rebuke. (Colleges should lose federal funding the minute there’s an anti-Semitic demonstration!)

All political cowardice on our part!

Prior to all this, look at class pictures of young people at the American universities of Cairo & Beirut even Afghanistan’s national university in Kabul. You will see young men & women in group pictures all stylishly dressed for the times. The young women dressed as stylish but modest young European women. Now look at those pictures after the above events, over time the women disappear or end up being laundry bags with eye slits.

And we even double if not triple down on political cowardice, we let these new “Islamic cultural paradigms” in our country. No good will come of that! Europe is ahead in this regard, Manchester, etc is our future.

Everything is decided by “blood & iron”, and it can even defeat those with advanced technology if the “technocrats” are cowards. Right now they are! Islam knows that!

“If there is no struggle, there is no progress. Those who profess to favor freedom and yet deprecate agitation are men who want crops without plowing the ground. They want rain without thunder and lightning. They want the ocean without the roar of its mighty waters.

The struggle may be a moral one or it may be a physical one, or it may both moral and physical, but it must be a struggle. Power concedes nothing without a demand. It never has and it never will. Find out just what a people will submit to, and you have found out the exact amount of injustice and wrong which will be imposed upon them; and these will continue till they are resisted with either words or blows, or with both. The limits of tyrants are prescribed by the endurance of those whom they oppress.” Frederick Douglass

BOTTOM LINE: EVIL, IN ALL ITS FORMS, MUST BE RESISTED BOTH IDEOLOGICALLY AND BY “AGITATION” (in the instant case, WAR)!
The alternative is submission.
The ARABIC word for submission is — ready? — ISLAM!

And to those of you who respond that Douglass was talking about SLAVERY, SO AM I!

Its name is ISLAM!!
