There has been strong reaction to President Barack Obama’s remarks at the National Prayer Breakfast on Thursday when he compared the murderous acts being committed by Islamic terrorist groups and centuries-ago Christian campaigns.
And lest we get on our high horse and think this is unique to some other place, remember that during the Crusades and the Inquisition, people committed terrible deeds in the name of Christ. In our home country, slavery and Jim Crow all too often was justified in the name of Christ.
The founder of StandAmerica, Bishop E. W. Jackson, told Elizabeth Hasselbeck on Friday morning’s Fox and Friends that he had a message for President Obama:
I have a message for the president with all due respect to him and to the office: Mr. President, if you don’t want to give terrorists a recruitment’s tool, instead of closing Guantanamo Bay, frankly sir, you ought to close your mouth. Because you just gave them a gigantic propaganda tool. They called us ‘crusaders’ and you just confirmed it.
The Bishop went on to slam President Obama for defending Islam over American Christians.
Mr. President, we’re not on our ‘high horse.’ What we are is on high alert. And the American people would like for once, to know that you are willing to defend Christianity and defend America instead of defending Islam.

Islam is not a threat …
Obama is not delusional when he portrays Islam as a “religion of peace”. He has an agenda. Obama is Muslim by birth, his father bas Muslim, he was educated as Muslim and he is well verse in the Koran and knows quite well everything about the bloody history of Islam.
While we were constantly reminded by the selective repeating of the audio and visual later unincluded text portions of the Martin Luthur King Jr. famous “I have a dream “ speech.
The left and its media arm never makes references to the beginning and King’s references to the way this country was uniquely created with its purposes of existence declared through its carefully crafted Constitution, citing God gifts to mankind, and its Declaration of Independence .
They never cite King’s support and belief in it. Because it wouldn’t serve the purposes of racial division which King was against.
This race war crap was started for one reason and this agenda was driven because;
As opposition to Obama’s abuse of his constitutional authority and talk of “impeachment” began to arise and his polling numbers fell.
What Obama needed, worked for, and got , by separating and isolating his solid group of supporters the blacks through creating out of whole cloth stories of “victimization”.
Using circumstances where lawless black youths wound up dead in felonious struggles over guns held by figures of authority. Obama used his “Bully Pulpit to reinforce that “victim” agenda in Florida and Missouri. In both cases he portrayed authority as the agressors and the perpetrators as the “victims”
In Florida’s case success was indicated by the number of incidents where members of other races were attacked severly injured or murdered by black youths committing these assults in the name of the so called “victim” All the while Obama neither commented on nor condemed such activity.Because of this, the question ; Is there blood on his hands ? Are those deaths that resulted from these incidents innocent “victims” of that agenda? Is avoided.
In Missouri he met with and issued a “stay the course” order to the Ferguson protesters. They in turn coordinated by the usual suspects organized nationwide protests. Their purpose and result was a successful demonstration of what would happen if congress ever moved on any constitutional efforts to restrain or even remove Obama including“Impeachment”..
Once the regime measured its unexpected success why not continue ?
Expand it to war on law enforcement. Get more cops refuse to respond or get killed if they do. or hesitate to defend themselves while attempting to confront “afro-americans” engaged in felonious assults while fleeing or are engaged in criminal activity resisting arrests.
Attack the Grand Jury system investigating police mal practice. It’s not after the facts. It’s after “payback”to those poor hypenated Americans known as “Afro” who because of their financial situation are forced to pillage, kill, and rape. And are entitled to do so.
Exploit innocent interchanges between “afros” and different races make them (the afros) believe it’s racist. Create uneeded tension between them and other groups so that those groups not only view them with aprehension but feral creatures unable to know right from wrong
All because the regime must be protected from being questioned in its exercize and abuse of power.
Then bring in another completely alien group which they believe are easier to manipulate which will furthur isolate the “afro” who will get thrown to the wolves once they’re politically no longer “usefull”.
All made possible by the agenda driven socialist products from academia running the alphabet soup venues controlling the visual and print media . Competing with each other protecting their beneficiairies financial interests. That has wound up in “Trusts” controlled by individuals or groups interested only in protecting their own self interests. “Trusts” which should be broken up.
Worse yet supported by the leadership of the political opposition. Who see the benefits of “working together” expanding government. As the happless voter having never to get their day of reckoning and their children’s children’s children pay the bills living in a culture their forebearers wouldn’t ever recognize. Using the dream of King’s speech as the door mat by a person of his race destroying it.
” He is not a Christian, never was and just attended Wright’s church “
Rev. Wright said long ago that Obama wasn’t a Christian, and only attended church for political viability.
The Inquisition had nothing to do with Muslim incursions.
Good for Bishop Jackson. I am glad he said these things.
Same applies to any government official, elected or not, who violates his oath of office.
Has the half breed been hanging around Joe Insurance Policy too much? Sure sounds like he has.
I disagree with you and can find nothing supporting your statement.
Can you tell me where you formed your opinion regarding the inquisition?
I was taught the inquisition (Spanish) was conducted by the Roman Church and targeted "heretics", namely those who refused to believe their salvation was regulated by strict adherence to the Roman Church of the time.
My own research and reading including Foxe's Book of Christian Martyrs clearly say nothing regarding muslims of the time.
I am not defending anything muslim I can't stand it that our media and POS obama refuse to call a spade a spade and acknowledge the barbarity and cruelty of islam, but again, I don't believe the inquisition had anything to do with Islam.
Are you seriously trying to say the Muslims did not take over Spain? If you look, you’ll notice that the Spanish Inquisition took place almost right after the Reconquista, and Muslims were ordered to either convert or leave Spain. The Churches that were converted to Mosques were made churches again and some mosques were converted into churches.
Muslims and Jews were not judged by the tribunal of the Inquisition, they only dealt with Catholics and those already converted to the Catholic faith.
The British Jewish historian Henry Kamen, a well respected scholar of the Spanish Inquisition, has calculated a total of some 2,000 victims along its four centuries of existence. Kamen adds that “it is interesting to compare the statistics on sentences to death of civilians and inquisitorial tribunals between the 15th and 18th centuries in Europe: for every one hundred death sentences handed down by courts, the Inquisition (Catholic) issued ONE”.
Another historian, Ricardo García Cárcel, estimated that the total number of processed by the Inquisition throughout its history was about 150,000. By applying the percentage of executed appears in the causes of 1560-1700, nearly 2% - can be said that in the worst cases the number of executed persons probably approached three thousand (3,000).
According to American Professor Philip Wayne Powell, were executed just over 100 people in the 250 years in which it was acting the Inquisition in the Spanish America.
In Germany and France, the wars of religion lasted more than one century with a balance of hundreds of thousands of deaths. The Spanish Inquisition, together with the religious reform sponsored by the Catholic Kings, avoided the fratricidal wars are extended to Spain between Christians who leak so much blood in the rest of Europe.
I suppose you’re correct then, and I should apologize. It seems there was a bit of a time differential between the Reconquista and the Inquisition. But as you indicate, the total number killed might only just match the number of people killed by Islamics every month.
Excellent!!!
NO!!
I am seriously trying to tell you the Inquisition had NOTHING to do with the Muslims.
Oh well, I tried.
Your trials are not in vein. I still don’t like Muslims, however.
Vane I mean.
Funny how we need to wait for a black to oppose a black because we are so paralized by the racist and rat tactics put upon white people that we cant even have a conversation
I’m with you on that for sure.
And it appears we have one in the Whitehut.
