Stop the appesaement

Stop the growth of this backwards mind set into the very heart of Western civilization..

Then push back.

Force Westernization upon them everywhere.

Nothing else will work.

[wizardoz]

Good essay! I'd say Free Republic is the closest thing we have to a War Room right now.

We are at "Total War" whether we acknowledge it or Not!

Our precious national existence is at stake here. Take no prisoners,grant no truce and accept no surrender!

[aculeus]

Big bump.

[Travis McGee]

Radical Islam is an insane murder cult; moderate Islam is its Trojan Horse in the West.

We will have to come very close to their exterminiation before the will submit. The left of the West cannot accept this reality, they are a greater threat than Islam in the big picture. And they control the media.

[Gritty]

We have a serious fifth column in our midst, one that has made common cause with Islamists against us, one that has been well funded by Arab oil billionaires for more than forty years.

Exactly!

[Convert from ECUSA]

Ping!

NTSA!

We will have to come very close to their exterminiation before the will submit.

I, for one, do not think we should wait for our cities to become smoking ruins before exterminating our enemies with extreme prejudice.

It's time the planet is cured of the worldwide mental illness known as Islam. Destroy every Islamic holy site. Vaporize Mecca, Medina, Qom, Damascus, Tehran, Riyadh, Islamabad, Mogadishu and their disgusting mosque in our "Holy City" of Jerusalem.

Demonstrate to them that Allah, their false moon-god, is worthless and impotent. Destroying their faith is the only way to win this war.

Hiroshima, Nagasaki, Tokyo, Berlin, Dresden. We haven't had much trouble from the Japanese or Germans lately. MacArthur and Patton must be spinning in their graves over our failure to learn from history.

5000 years of recorded history proves conclusively that "Peace" can never be "negotiated". The losers must beg for it.

Phyllis Chesler:

...As propagandists, they are far more sophisticated than Goebbels, and far more patient. We cannot afford to underestimate their skill at telling Big Lies. Islamists understood that if they funded madrassas in the East and Middle Eastern Institutes in the West, and if they funded the total Palestinianization of the United Nations and of every international human rights groups that in thirty to fifty years, they would have brainwashed generations to see things their way.

...Millions of people have been systematically brainwashed against America, against Israel, against Jews, against women and against the western concept of truth, objectivity, truth-telling, and independent thinking. All are under siege.

We have a serious fifth column in our midst, one that has made common cause with Islamists against us, one that has been well funded by Arab oil billionaires for more than forty years...

What must we do in the face of this tyrannical threat? We must rescue language. It must bear some relationship to the truth and morality. Everything is not relative.

...We must fund seriously a collective effort to combat vulgar lies and vilification, the propaganda against us which has brainwashed countless generations.

We need a War Room effort to counter the Big Lies. We need international radio and television channels to educate people. We need to teach people about intellectual diversity and tolerance.

...The way I see it, everything is at stake. This is a time when we must all be heroes. We must all stand up to evil in our lifetime. We must acknowledge that Islamist terrorism is evil and has no justification. We must teach this to our children. We must support Muslim and Arab dissidents in their fight against Islamic tyranny and gender apartheid. We can do this. We must do this. Otherwise, we will die, and our history and our values and our entire way of life will die with us. If we fail, we will betray all that we believe in as a free people.

Nailed It!
Moral Clarity BUMP !

This ping list is not author-specific for articles I'd like to share. Some for the perfect moral clarity, some for provocative thoughts; or simply interesting articles I'd hate to miss myself. (I don't have to agree with the author all 100% to feel the need to share an article.) I will try not to abuse the ping list and not to annoy you too much, but on some days there is more of the good stuff that is worthy of attention. You can see the list of articles I pinged to lately  on  my page.
You are welcome in or out, just freepmail me (and note which PING list you are talking about). Besides this one, I keep 2 separate PING lists for my favorite authors Victor Davis Hanson and Orson Scott Card.

The biggest problem is that it is politically incorrect to blame Islam for Islamic terrorism. How can a religious ideology that spawns radical killers be given a total pass? It is not logical.

Mainstream Muslims, far from taking responsibility for the killers their ideology gives birth to, actually have the nerve to get angry when it is suggested that Islamic ideology is to blame.

Instead, unbelievably, they blame us for the terrorism. We are responsible for our own deaths? The idea is insane. Moderate Muslims who promote this insanity in the form of propaganda are as responsible for terrorism's death and destruction as the terrorists themselves. They need to be imprisoned or deported. No exceptions.

The warnings from our leaders that we need to "be nice" to our enemies is the worst sort of treason. Political correctness is a form of mental illness.

Moral Absolutes Ping.

All cultures, all ideologies, all beliefs are not equal. Read the above article, and then read the next I'll ping out in a minute. It's an illustration.

Freepmail me if you want on/off this pinglist.

I disagree with this statement:

"This country has birthed two significant waves of feminism. We must now take that feminist vision global."

Feminism is evil. What Muslim women need is not "womyns' studies", lesbianism, piercing, abortion rights, or "A Woman needs a husband like a fish needs a bicycle" bumperstickers.

Muslim women need what Muslim men need - human rights and freedom from tyranny and a tyrannical fanatic religion.

[Mrs. Don-o]

"Hiroshima, Nagasaki, Tokyo, Berlin, Dresden. "

If it's barbaric for the Islamofascist jihadists to deliberately target civilians, it's barbaric for the USA or anybody else to deliberately target civilians.
