As legend has it, the Grim Reaper moves among us, unseen and unstoppable. A black hood obscures his ugly, skeletal face and no one knows he is near until his touch claims life. Only in death is his face revealed.
It is troubling, after America was attacked on her own soil, that so many Americans still do not realize the danger of the insidious and relentless enemy that we face. Just as no living thing can escape death, Americans cannot escape the final showdown with Islam. It is unfortunate that so many will die because they are afraid to lift the black hood and see the face of the enemy. Islam has declared war on America and our culture. Islam brought the battle right to our shores and still, many do not believe.
Will there be Muslims that join us in our battle? Probably, but only those who are able to shake off the shackles of Islam. Only those who can reject the idea that only Muslims have a right to exist will aid us in this struggle.
Barbara Walters recently interviewed a failed Islamic suicide bomber and asked him if he wanted her to go to hell because she is not Muslim. His response is a glimpse into the foundation and teachings of Islam. This man, who was disappointed that his bomb belt failed to work and he was not successful in his mission to kill innocent people, told Ms. Walters that it was not his wish that she go to hell, but it was God’s will.
This Muslim has been taught that it is his duty to Islam to kill and there would be no punishment from Allah for murder because it is neither murder nor suicide to kill those who do not believe in Islam. With a smile, he told her that only Muslims will enter paradise. Indeed, most young Muslim boys are taught that non-Muslims are not even human but descendants of pigs and monkeys. Killing non-Muslims is a form of mercy killing because non-Muslims do not enjoy the favor of Allah.
Muslim boys are taught that if they die as “martyrs” for Islam, 72 virgins wait for them in paradise. These buxom and beautiful young girls are perpetual virgins. For those so inclined there will also be young boys called “pearls” for their pleasure when they get bored with the virgins. The would-be suicide bomber had no doubts that this was the reward he was denied because he failed.
Barbara Walters found this belief “amusing” but millions of young Muslim men absolutely believe this and there is nothing amusing about it. It is one of the most powerful weapons Islam has at its disposal to use against infidels and it is the cheapest. One Muslim man with a suicide belt can kill and maim a hundred people. To Islamic leaders, that is a fair trade. Ten Muslim lives for 1000 non-believers. The more people killed, the more Allah will love and reward the “martyr.” I wonder if Ms. Walters would continue to find it amusing if one of those Muslim men, yearning for his fair share of virgins, were to blow himself up in a crowded McDonald’s or a Chuck E. Cheese’s restaurant packed to the rafters with kids at a birthday party.
For terrorists to succeed, they must strike terror in the hearts of their enemies. There is no faster way to accomplish this than to attack children. There is nothing that will turn calm adults into frantic and panicked human beings faster than the belief that their child’s life is in danger. Simultaneous attacks in a dozen American cities would ignite a panic in this country that has never been seen or felt before.
What is the cost to Islam? The initial cost would be only twelve lives, and for Islamics, that is nothing. But if 30 people, mostly children, could be killed at each site, Islamics would be celebrating the success of the mission. Islam has thousands waiting in line for the honor of killing for Allah. Iran claims to have a million young Muslims on its “martyrs” list.
Such an attack would indeed cause the desired panic and people would keep their children away from any place a bomber might be lurking. Malls, theaters, fast-food restaurants, and any other “soft” target would be empty. The effect on the economy would be immediate. Islam would have two victories for the price of 12 lives. No need to smuggle in large bombs or have a vast army of armed men. Twelve pre-programmed and brainwashed young men are all that would be needed. The first wave of “martyrs” would only be the first volley. There would be many, many more.
Over the years, America has allowed tens of thousands of Muslims to emigrate from the Middle East and many of them are apt to be willing “martyrs” who would be overjoyed to kill the American infidel for Allah and receive their eternal virgins as a reward in paradise. If each bomber was successful in killing ten people, the number of dead Americans would be staggering.
Al Qaeda has complained that American-born Muslims are reluctant to join in the slaughter. American Muslims have been corrupted by freedom, but with the large influx of Middle Eastern Muslims and the importation of radical Islamic teachers and Imams with them, there would be no shortage of volunteers who would line up to grab the Islamic brass ring that leads to paradise and virgins. The threat is real and the threat is likely right here in America.
What Americans must realize is that Islamic terrorists will not come storming ashore in full military garb and try to overrun the country. They will ride in airplanes and look like everyone else in the crowd. They will smile and chat with your child and comment on how cute your baby is. . . . All one has to do to understand how Islamics wage war is look at the number of dead women and children in Iraq that have died at the hands of the brave Islamic “warriors.” Better yet, try to picture large jumbo jets crashing into large buildings.
Also targeted in Iraq are the fledgling police and National Guard units. That will not happen here. Our police are far too seasoned and well armed for a frontal attack. Islamic terrorists will move on civilians because they know they cannot defeat our police or military.
Islamics have learned over the past four years that leftists in America are weak. Islamics have used our freedom and our laws to infiltrate our cities and continue to be protected by those on the left who demand the civil rights of these potential bombers be placed ahead of the lives of American citizens. Once again, leftists are moving to blind America to the plots of those who wish us dead. All the leftists want to do is contemplate how they can impeach the only American president who has taken a stand against the terrorists. The enemy must be pleased.
But these Islamic terrorist leaders are not stupid. They know when they give the order to begin the waves of suicide bombers in America it will be their final stand. It will be their last resort because these leaders know that even their leftist friends will run and hide and no longer protect them if biological or chemical weapons or suicide bombers are unleashed on the American population. Islamics are not yet ready for their last hurrah. They know America will respond quickly and violently. While these Islamic leaders have no problem sending thousands of mindless Muslim robots out to kill for Islam, they have no intention of dying for Islam themselves.
It is past time for all Americans to look into the eyes of the enemy and recognize it for what it is: evil. It is the evil found in the heart of the man who drives a car full of explosives into a crowd of playing children in Iraq and it is found in the heart of a woman who sits down to watch playing children at a wedding and later laments that her bomb malfunctioned. To Americans, this kind of evil is incomprehensible. To the enemy, it is a way of life. It is the only route to paradise.
Doesn't it though? Me too.
I just need to post it as much as I can. I want all our FReeper friends to be aware of this. If not, they are going to blind-side us one day.

Hard for me not to think of you and your comments on another thread when I read this sentence that opens the second paragraph of this article.
ML/NJ
You can say that again, and again, and again and these fanatics best heed it. It will not be just the authorities rounding them up and taking them into some Court where they will have legions of taxpayer-paid lawyers.
Uh, Islamic Terrorists (already exploded themselves murdering THOUSANDS of innocent Americans on 9-11-2001.
More than four years later, I'm still waiting for the reaction you describe.
The fact that the lunatic terrorists were not "homegrown" is utterly irrelevant.
Thanks for the ping!
