Now, count those mosques in your neighbourhoods, and be careful

"More Moslems came, and soon a small mosque was built, which attracted yet others. As long as Zoroastrians remained in the majority, their lives were tolerable; but once the Moslems became the more numerous, a petty but pervasive harassment was apt to develop. This was partly verbal, with taunts about fire-worship, and comments on how few Zoroastrians there were in the world, and how many Moslems, who must therefore posses the truth; and also on how many material advantages lay with Islam. The harassment was often also physical; boys fought, and gangs of youth waylaid and bullied individual Zoroastrians. They also diverted themselves by climbing into the local tower of silence and desecrating it, and they might even break into the fire-temple and seek to pollute or extinguish the sacred flame. Those with criminal leanings found too that a religious minority provided tempting opportunities for theft, pilfering from the open fields, and sometimes rape and arson. Those Zoroastrians who resisted all these pressures often preferred therefore in the end to sell out and move to some other place where their co-religionists were still relatively numerous, and they could live at peace; and so another village was lost to the old faith."

"...More Moslems came, and soon a small mosque was built, which attracted yet others..."

It's a rational choice that the muzzies make when they come to America, yet refuse to assimilate. It's part of their cult-culture to just move in like parasites, enjoy the benefits of modern life, and wait for the other 10% of them to kill the host.

About two or three weeks ago, I recall hearing Bush mention the word: 'Caliphate' as one of his off-the-cuff remarks. He understands what that means, and still chose to champion a 'shamnesty' bill that would result in even more illegal-immigration, probably including the worst of the muzzies. I don't understand his thinking, and I don't want to say that he intentionally wants more muzzies, but ...

I'm encouraged by a coupla things that happened recently, that reinforced my belief in the strength of America. On March 17th this year, the paid-for, anti-war, nutbar-moonbats scheduled a protest march that would start at the Viet-Nam War Memorial, and end at the Pentagon. About 3000 moonbats showed-up on their busses, and about 300 made it to the pentagon - it WAS cold!

When the word got out (?) that the moonbats might desecrate the Memorial, about 30,000 Americans traveled to DC at their own expense to protect it! The 'anti-war' crap essentially ended that day, and Cindy Shithead has quit the business (and it is a business)!

In just the last two weeks, we witnessed an outpouring of anger by 'We-The-People' against an arrogant 'ruling-elite' who were trying to fool us again with yet another piece of stupid, lying, legislation. America refused to be fooled again!

The rugged individualism that so characterizes America is alive and well. We may be 'on our own', but that's OK. We're good at it .......................... FRegards
