"Islam is coming to take over Germany whether you want it or not, not through war but by the fact that Germans don't reproduce and Muslims have 7-8 children each, but not only that, your daughters will marry bearded Muslims and wear the hijab, their sons will wear a beard!"
(Excerpt) Read more at thegatewaypundit.com ...
I'm seeing more women at the local gun range now, a lot more. Sometimes 7 out of 10 shooters are women, usually between 20 and 40.
Then, thanks to their Muslim hoards, Germans will once again bear children and populate Germany with German Muslim sons and daughters!
Wait until they find out they have to give up Oktoberfest! Maybe that will anger them.
Bank on it.
And the Zyklon-B factories will have a hard time keeping up.
No. It won’t. They don’t care about Oktoberfest. They will not like having to give up their religion of apathy.
Why can’t European countries just deny citizenship to them? Where are the common sense laws and rules? Why can’t they be sent back to a safe zone in their own environment? I thought here were safeguards for something like this...or at least the will to fight it!
>>If Germans donât reproduce, how can their daughters marry Muslims and wear the hijab?
Because muslim men don’t ask their wives stupid questions like “How many children do you want?”
And just like in the US where the white teenage girls are flocking to the brown and black boys, they want a man who takes charge. The white boys are carrying purses, being sensitive, and generally being great girlfriends.
No , Germany will just end up a pile of rubble .
Most nations have laws on the books that allow for the acceptance of "political" refugees. That makes some sense. And it was originally meant for individuals or small groups.
Germany's laws allow for political refugees. But I think those laws do NOT allow for "economic" refugees, folks trying to get into Germany just for more benefits, etc.
For her own reasons, Merkel has decided to classify all these immigrants as political refugees, which they most certainly are not.
All you have to know about the insanity at the core of Islam is their lifetime obsession is to parade around a space rock.
April 2006 Message from Dan
Greetings Readers, Friends, and Other Visitors:
The Time Traveler appeared suddenly in my study on New Yearâs Eve, 2004. He was a stolid, grizzled man in a gray tunic and looked to be in his late-sixties or older. He also appeared to be the veteran of wars or of some terrible accident since he had livid scars on his face and neck and hands, some even visible in his scalp beneath a fuzz of gray hair cropped short in a military cut. One eye was covered by a black eyepatch. Before I could finish dialing 911 he announced in a husky voice that he was a Time Traveler come back to talk to me about the future.
Being a sometimes science-fiction writer but not a fool, I said, âProve it.â
âDo you remember Replay?â he said.
My finger hovered over the final â1â in my dialing. âThe 1987 novel?â I said. âBy Ken Grimwood?â
The stranger â Time Traveler, psychotic, home invader, whatever he was â nodded.
I hesitated. The novel by Grimwood had won the World Fantasy Award a year or two after my first-novel, Song of Kali, had. Grimwoodâs book was about a guy who woke up one morning to find himself snapped back decades in his life, from the late 1980âs to himself as a college student in 1963, and thus getting the chance to relive â to replay â that life again, only this time acting upon what heâd already learned the hard way. In the book, the character, who was to experience â suffer â several Replays, learned that there were other people from his time who were also Replaying their lives in the past, their bodies younger but their memories intact. Iâd greatly enjoyed the book, thought it deserved the award, and had been sad to hear that Grimwood had died . . . when? . . . in 2003.
So, I thought, I might have a grizzled nut case in my study this New Yearâs Eve, but if he was a reader and a fan of Replay, he was probably just a sci-fi fan grizzled nut case, and therefore probably harmless. Possibly. Maybe.
I kept my finger poised over the final â1â in â911.â
âWhat does that book have to do with you illegally entering my home and study?â I asked.
The stranger smiled ⦠almost sadly I thought. âYou asked me to prove that Iâm a Time Traveler,â he said softly. âDo you remember how Grimwoodâs character in Replay went hunting for others in the 1960âs who had traveled back in time from the late 1980âs?â
I did remember now. Iâd thought it clever at the time. The guy in Replay, once he suspected others were also replaying into the past, had taken out personal ads in major city newspapers around the country. The ads were concise. âDo you remember Three Mile Island, Challenger, Watergate, Reaganomics? If so, contact me at . . .â
Before I could say anything else on this New Yearâs Eve of 2004, a few hours before 2005 began, the stranger said, âTerri Schiavo, Katrina, New Orleans under water, Ninth Ward, Ray Nagin, Superdome, Judge John Roberts, White Sox sweep the Astros in four to win the World Series, Pope Benedict XVI, Scooter Libby.â
âWait, wait!â I said, scrambling for a pen and then scrambling even faster to write. âRay who? Pope who? Scooter who?â
âYouâll recognize it all when you hear it all again,â said the stranger. âIâll see you in a year and weâll have our conversation.â
âWait!â I repeated. âWhat was that middle apart . . . Ray Nugin? Judge who? John Roberts? Who is . . .â But when I looked up he was gone.
âWhite Sox win the Series?â I muttered into the silence. âFat chance.â
#
I was waiting for him on New Yearâs Eve 2005. I didnât see him enter. I looked up from the book I was fitfully reading and he was standing in the shadows again. I didnât dial 911 this time, nor demand any more proof. I waved him to the leather wingchair and said, âWould you like something to drink?â
âScotch,â he said. âSingle malt if you have it.â
I did.
Our conversation ran over two hours, but the following is the gist of it. Iâm a novelist by trade. I remember conversations pretty well. (Not as perfectly as Truman Capote was said to be able to recall long conversations word for word, but pretty well.)
The Time Traveler wouldnât tell me what year in the future he was from. Not even the decade or century. But the gray cord trousers and blue-gray wool tunic top he was wearing didnât look very far-future science-fictiony or military, no Star Trekky boots or insignia, just wellworn clothes that looked like something a guy who worked with his hands a lot would wear. Construction maybe.
âI know you canât tell me details about the future because of time travel paradoxes,â I began. I hadnât spent a lifetime reading and then writing SF for nothing.
âOh, bugger time travel paradoxes,â said the Time Traveler. âThey donât exist. I could tell you anything I want to and it wonât change anything. I just choose not to tell you some things.â
I frowned at this. âTime travel paradoxes donât exist? But surely if I go back in time and kill my grandfather before he meets my grandmother . . .â
The Time Traveler laughed and sipped his Scotch. âWould you want to kill your grandfather?â he said. âOr anyone else?â
âWell . . .Hitler maybe,â I said weakly.
The Traveler smiled, but more ironically this time. âGood luck,â he said. âBut donât count on succeeding.â
I shook my head. âBut surely anything you tell me now about the future will change the future,â I said.
âI gave you a raft of facts about your future a year ago as my bona fides,â said the Time Traveler. âDid it change anything? Did you save New Orleans from drowning?â
âI won $50 betting on the White Sox in October,â I admitted.
The Time Traveler only shook his head. âQuod erat demonstrandum,â he said softly. âI could tell you that the Mississippi River flows generally south. Would your knowing about it change its course or flow or flooding?â
I thought about this. Finally I said, âWhy did you come back? Why do you want to talk to me? What do you want me to do?â
âI came back for my own purposes,â said the Time Traveler, looking around my booklined study. âI chose you to talk to because it was . . . convenient. And I donât want you to do a goddamned thing. Thereâs nothing you can do. But relax . . . weâre not going to be talking about personal things. Such as, say, the year, day, and hour of your death. I donât even know that sort of trivial information, although I could look it up quickly enough. You can release that white-knuckled grip you have on the edge of your desk.â
I tried to relax. âWhat do you want to talk about?â I said.
âThe Century War,â said the Time Traveler.
I blinked and tried to remember some history. âYou mean the Hundred Year War? Fifteenth Century? Fourteenth? Sometime around there. Between . . . France and England? Henry V? Kenneth Branagh? Or was it . . .â
âI mean the Century War with Islam,â interrupted the Time Traveler. âYour future. Everyoneâs.â He was no longer smiling. Without asking, or offering to pour me any, he stood, refilled his Scotch glass, and sat again. He said, âIt was important to me to come back to this time early on in the struggle. Even if only to remind myself of how unspeakably blind you all were.â
âYou mean the War on Terrorism,â I said.
âI mean the Long War with Islam,â he said. âThe Century War. And itâs not over yet where I come from. Not close to being over.â
âYou canât have a war with Islam,â I said. âYou canât go to war against a religion. Radical Islam, maybe. Jihadism. Some extremists. But not a . . . the . . . religion itself. The vast majority of Muslims in the world are peaceloving people who wish us no harm. I mean . . . I mean . . . the very word âIslamâ means âPeace.ââ
âSo you kept telling yourselves,â said the Time Traveler. His voice was very low but there was a strange and almost frightening edge to it. âBut the âpeaceâ in âIslamâ means âSubmission.â Youâll find that out soon enoughâ
Great, I was thinking. Of all the time travelers in all the gin joints in all the world, I get this racist, xenophobic, right-wing asshole.
âAfter Nine-eleven, weâre fighting terrorism,â I began, ânot . . .â
He waved me into silence.
âYou were a philosophy major or minor at that podunk little college you went to long ago,â said the Time Traveler. âDo you remember what Category Error is?â
It rang a bell. But I was too irritated at hearing my alma mater being called a âpodunk little collegeâ to be able to concentrate fully.
âIâll tell you what it is,â said the Time Traveler. âIn philosophy and formal logic, and it has its equivalents in science and business management, Category Error is the term for having stated or defined a problem so poorly that it becomes impossible to solve that problem, through dialectic or any other means.â
I waited. Finally I said firmly, âYou canât go to war with a religion. Or, I mean . . . sure, you could . . . the Crusades and all that . . . but it would be wrong.â
The Time Traveler sipped his Scotch and looked at me. He said, âLet me give you an analogy . . .â
God, I hated and distrusted analogies. I said nothing.
âLetâs imagine,â said the Time Traveler, âthat on December eighth, Nineteen forty-one, President Franklin Delano Roosevelt spoke before a joint session of Congress and asked them to declare war on aviation.â
âThatâs absurd,â I said.
âIs it?â asked the Time Traveler. âThe American battleships, cruisers, harbor installations, Army barracks, and airfields at Pearl Harbor and elsewhere in Hawaii were all struck by Japanese aircraft. Imagine if the next day Roosevelt had declared war on aviation . . . threatening to wipe it out wherever we found it. Committing all the resources of the United States of America to defeating aviation, so help us God.â
âThatâs just stupid,â I said. If Iâd ever been afraid of this Time Traveler, I wasnât now. He was obviously a mental defective.âThe planes, the Japanese planes,â I said, âwere just a method of attack . . . a means . . . it wasnât aviation that attacked us at Pearl Harbor, but the Empire of Japan. We declared war on Japan and a few days later its ally, Germany, lived up to its treaty with the Japanese and declared war on us. If weâd declared war on aviation, on goddamned airplanes rather than the empire and ideology that launched them, weâd never have . . .â
I stopped. What had he called it? Category Error. Making the problem unsolvable through your inability â or fear â of defining it correctly.
The Time Traveler was smiling at me from the shadows. It was a small, thin, cold smile â holding no humor in it, I was sure â but still a smile of sorts. It seemed more sad than gloating as my sudden silence stretched on.
âWhat do you know about Syracuse?â he asked suddenly.
I blinked again. âSyracuse, New York?â I said at last.
He shook his head slowly. âThucydidesâ Syracuse,â he said softly. âSyracuse circa 415 B.C. The Syracuse Athens invaded.â
âIt was . . . part of the Peloponnesian War,â I ventured.
He waited for more but I had no more to give. I loved history, but letâs admit it . . . that was ancient history. Still, I felt that I should have been able to tell him,or at least remember, why Syracuse was important in the Peloponnesian War or why they fought there or who fought exactly or who had won or . . . something. I hated feeling like a dull student around this scarred old man.
âThe war between Athens and its allies and Sparta and its allies â a war for nothing less than hegemony over the entire known world at that time â began in 431 B.C.,â said the Time Traveler. âAfter seventeen years of almost constant fighting, with no clear or permanent advantage for either side, Athens â under the leadership of Alcibiades at the time â decided to widen the war by conquering Sicily, the âGreat Greeceâ they called it, an area full of colonies and the key to maritime commerce at the time the way the Strait of Hormuz in the Persian Gulf is today.â
I hate being lectured to at the best of times, but something about the tone and timber of the Time Travelerâs voice â soft, deep, rasping, perhaps thickened a bit by the whiskey â made this sound more like a story being told around a campfire. Or perhaps a bit like one of Garrison Keillorâs Lake Wobegon stories on âPrairie Home Companion.â I settled deeper into my chair and listened.
âSyracuse wasnât a direct enemy of the Athenians,â continued the Time Traveler, âbut it was quarreling with a local Athenian colony and the democracy of Athens used that as an excuse to launch a major expedition against it. It was a big deal â Athens sent 136 triremes, the best fighting ships in the world then â and landed 5,000 soldiers right under the cityâs walls.
âThe Athenians had enjoyed so much military success in recent years, including their invasion of Melos, that Thucydides wrote â So thoroughly had the present prosperity persuaded the Athenians that nothing could withstand them, and that they could achieve what was possible and what was impracticable alike, with means ample or inadequate it mattered not. The reason for this was their general extraordinary success, which made them confuse their strengths with their hopes.â
âOh, hell,â I said, âthis is going to be a lecture about Iraq, isnât it? Look . . . I voted for John Kerry last year and . . .â
âListen to me,â the Time Traveler said softly. It was not a request. There was steel in that soft, rasping voice. âNicias, the Athenian general who ended up leading the invasion, warned against it in 415 B.C. He said â âWe must not disguise from ourselves that we go to found a city among strangers and enemies, and that he who undertakes such an enterprise should be prepared to become master of the country the first day he lands, or failing in this to find everything hostile to himâ. Nicias, along with the Athenian poet and general Demosthenes, would see their armies destroyed at Syracuse and then they would both be captured and put to death by the Syracusans. Sparta won big in that two-year debacle for Athens. The war went on for seven more years, but Athens never recovered from that overreaching at Syracuse, and in the end . . . Sparta destroyed it. Conquered the Athenian empire and its allies, destroyed Athensâ democracy, ruined the entire balance of power and Greek hegemony over the known world at the time . . . ruined everything. All because of a miscalculation about Syracuse.â
I sighed. I was sick of Iraq. Everyone was sick of Iraq on New Years Eve, 2005, both Bush supporters and Bush haters. It was just an ugly mess. âThey just had an election,â I said. âThe Iraqi people. They dipped their fingers in purple ink and . . .â
âYes yes,â interrupted the Time Traveler as if recalling something further back in time, and much less important, than Athens versus Syracuse. âThe free elections. Purple fingers. Democracy in the Mid-East. The Palestinians are voting as well. You will see in the coming year what will become of all that.â
The Time Traveler drank some Scotch, closed his eyes for a second, and said, âSun Tzu writes â The side that knows when to fight and when not to will take the victory. There are roadways not to be traveled, armies not to be attacked, walled cities not to be assaulted.â
âAll right, goddammit,â I said irritably. âYour pointâs made. So we shouldnât have invaded Iraq in this . . . what did you call it? This Long War with Islam, this Century War. Weâre all beginning to realize that here by the end of 2005.â
The Time Traveler shook his head. âYouâve understood nothing Iâve said. Nothing. Athens failed in Syracuse â and doomed their democracy â not because they fought in the wrong place and at the wrong time, but because they werenât ruthless enough. They had grown soft since their slaughter of every combat-age man and boy on the island of Melos, the enslavement of every woman and girl there. The democratic Athenians, in regards to Syracuse, thought that once engaged they could win without absolute commitment to winning, claim victory without being as ruthless and merciless as their Spartan and Syracusan enemies. The Athenians, once defeat loomed, turned against their own generals and political leaders â and their official soothsayers. If General Nicias or Demosthenes had survived their captivity and returned home, the people who sent them off with parades and strewn flower petals in their path would have ripped them limb from limb. They blamed their own leaders like a sun-maddened dog ripping and chewing at its own belly.â
I thought about this. I had no idea what the hell he was saying or how it related to the future.
âYou came back in time to lecture me about Thucydides?â I said. âAthens? Syracuse? Sun-Tzu? No offense, Mr. Time Traveler, but who gives a damn?â
The Time Traveler rose so quickly that I flinched back in my chair, but he only refilled his Scotch. This time he refilled my glass as well. âYou probably should give a damnâ he said softly. â In 2006, youâll be ripping and tearing at yourselves so fiercely that your nation â the only one on Earth actually fighting against resurgent caliphate Islam in this long struggle over the very future of civilization â will become so preoccupied with criticizing yourselves and trying to gain short-term political advantage, that youâll all forget that thereâs actually a war for your survival going on. Twenty-five years from now, every man or woman in America who wishes to vote will be required to read Thucydides on this matter. And others as well. And there are tests. If you donât know some history, you donât vote . . . much less run for office. Americaâs vacation from knowing history ends very soon now . . . for you, I mean. And for those few others left alive in the world who are allowed to vote.â
âYouâre shitting me,â I said.
âI am shitting you not,â said the Time Traveler.
âThose few others left alive who are allowed to vote?â I said, the words just now striking me like hardthrown stones. âWhat the hell are you talking about? Has our government taken away all our civil liberties in this awful future of yours?â
He laughed then and this time it was a deep, hearty, truly amused laugh. âOh, yes,â he said when the laughter abated a bit. He actually wiped away tears from his one good eye. âI had almost forgotten about your fears of your, our . . . civil liberties . . . being abridged by our own government back in these last stupidity-allowed years of 2005 and 2006 and 2007 . Where exactly do you see this repression coming from?â
âWell . . .â I said. I hate it when I start a sentence with âwell,â especially in an argument. âWell, the Patriot Act. Bush authorizing spying on Americans . . . international phonecalls and such. Uh . . . I think mosques in the States are under FBI surveillance. I mean, they want to look up what library books weâre reading, for Godâs sake. Big Brother. 1984. You know.â
The Time Traveler laughed again, but with more edge this time. âYes, I know,â he said. âWe all know . . . up there in the future which some of you will survive to see as free people. Civil liberties. In 2006 you still fear yourselves and your own institutions first, out of old habit. A not unworthy â if fatally misguided and terminally masochistic â paranoia. I will tell you right now, and this is not a prediction but a history lesson, some of your grandchildren will live in dhimmitude.â
âZimmi . . . what?â I said.
He spelled it out. What had sounded like a âzâ was the âdh.â Iâd never heard the word and I told him so.
âThen get off your ass and Google it,â said the Time Traveler, his one working eye glinting with something like fury. âDhimmitude. You can also look up the word dhimmi, because thatâs what two of your three grandchildren will be called. Dhimmis. Dhimmitude is the system of separate and subordinate laws and rules they will live under. Look up the word sharia while youâre Googling dhimmi, because that is the only law they will answer to as dhimmis, the only justice they can hope for . . . they and tens and hundreds of millions more now who are worried in your time about invisible abridgements of their âcivil libertiesâ by their âoppressiveâ American and European democratically elected governments.â
He audibly sneered this last part. I wondered now if the fury I sensed in him was a result of his madness, or if the reverse were true.
âWhere will my grandchildren suffer this dhimmitude?â I asked. My mouth was suddenly so dry I could barely speak.
âEurabia,â said the Time Traveler.
âThereâs no such place,â I said.
He gave me his one-eyed stare. My stomach suddenly lurched and I wished Iâd drunk no Scotch. âWords,â I said.
The Time Traveler raised one scar-slashed eyebrow.
âLast year you gave me words about 2005,â I said. âThe kind of words Ken Grimwoodâs replayers in time would have put in the newspaper to find each other. Give me more now. Or, better yet, just fucking tell me what youâre talking about. You said it wouldnât matter. You said that my knowing wonât change anything, any more than I can change the direction the Mississippi is flowing . So tell me, God damn it!â
He began by giving me words. Even while I was scribbling them down, I was thinking of reading Iâd been doing recently about the joy with which the Victorian Englishmen and 19th Century Europeans and Americans greeted the arrival of the 20th Century. The toasts, especially among the intellectual elite, on New Yearâs Eve 1899 had been about the coming glories of technology liberating them, of the imminent Second Enlightenment in human understanding, of the certainty of a just one-world government, of the end of war for all time.
Instead, what words would a time traveler or poor Replay victim put in his London Times or Berliner Zeitung or New York Times on January 1, 1900, to find his fellow travelers displaced in time? Auschwitz, I was sure, and Hiroshima and Trinity Site and Holocaust and Hitler and Stalin and . . .
The clock in my study chimed midnight.
Jesus God. Did I want to hear such words about 2006 and the rest of the 21st Century from the Time Traveler?
âAhmadenijad,â he said softly. âNatanz. Arak. Bushehr. Ishafan. Bonab. Ramsar.â
âThose words donât mean a damned thing to me,â I said as I scribbled them down phonetically. âWhere are they? What are they?â
âYouâll know soon enough,â said the Time Traveler.
âAre you talking about . . . what? . . . the next fifteen or twenty years?â I said.
âIâm talking about the next fifteen or twenty months from your now,â he said softly. âDo you want more words?â
I didnât. But I couldnât speak just then.
âGeneral Seyed Reza Pardis,â intoned the Time Traveler. âShehab-one, Shehab-two, Shehab-three. Tel Aviv. Baghdad International Airport, Al Salem U.S. airbase in Kuwait, Camp Dawhah U.S. Army base in Kuwait, al Seeb U.S. airbase in Oman, al Udeid U.S. Army and Air Force base in Qatar. Haifa. Beir-Shiva. Dimona.â
âOh, fuck,â I said. âOh, Jesus.â I had no clue as to who or what Shehab One, Two, or Three might be, but the context and litany alone made me want to throw up.
âThis is just the beginning,â said the Time Traveler.
âWasnât the beginning on September 11, 2001?â I managed through numb lips.
The one-eyed scarred man shook his head. âHistorians in my time know that it began on June 5, 1968,â he said. âBut it hasnât really begun for you yet. For any of you.â
I thought â What on earth happened on the fifth of June, 1968? Iâm old enough to remember. I was in college then. Working that summer and . . . Kennedy. Robert F. Kennedyâs assassination. âNow on to Chicago and the nomination!â Sirhan Sirhan. Was the Time Traveler trying to give me some kind of half-assed Oliver-Stone-JFK-movie garbled up conspiracy theory?
âWhat . . .â I began.
âGalveston,â interrupted the Time Traveler. âThe Space Needle. Bank of America Plaza in Dallas. Renaissance Tower in Dallas. Bank One Center in Dallas. The Indianapolis 500 â one hour and twenty-three minutes into the race. The Bell South Building in Atlanta. The TransAmerica Pyramid in San Francisco . . .â
âStop,â I said. âJust stop.â
âThe Golden Gate Bridge,â persisted the Time Traveler. âThe Guggenheim in Bilbao. The New Reichstag in Berlin. Albert Hall. Saint Paulâs Cathedral . . .â
âShut the fuck up!â I shouted. âAll these places canât disappear in the rest of this century, your goddamned Century War or not! I donât believe it.â
âI didnât say in the rest of your century,â said the Time Traveler, his torn voice almost a whisper now. âIâm talking about your next fifteen years. And Iâve barely begun.â
âYouâre nuts,â I said. âYouâre not from the future. You escaped from some asylum.â
The Time Traveler nodded. âThatâs more true than you know,â he said. âI come from a place and time where your grandchildren and hundreds of millions of other dhimmi are compelled to write âpbuhâ after the Prophetâs name. They wear gold crosses and gold Stars of David sewn onto their clothing. The Nazis didnât invent the wearing of the Star of David . . . the marking and setting apart of the Jews in society. Muslims did that centuries ago in they lands they conquered, European and otherwise. They will refine it and update it, not toward the more merciful, in the lands they occupy through the decades ahead of you.â
âYouâre crazy,â I cried, standing. My hands were balled into fists. âIslam is a religion . . . a religion of peace . . . not our enemy. We canât be at war with a religion. Thatâs obscene.â
âHave you read the Qurâan and learned your Sunnah?â asked the Time Traveler. âIt would behoove you to do so. Dhimmi means âprotection.â And your children and grandchildren will be protected . . . like cattle.â
âTo hell with you,â I said.
âYour dhimmi poll tax will be called jizya,â said the Time Traveler. His voice suddenly sounded very weary.âYour land tax for being an infidel, even for fellow People of the Book â Christians and Jews â will be called kharaz. Both of these taxes will be in addition to your mandatory alms â the zakat. The punishment for failure to pay, or for paying late, a punishment meted out by your local qadi, religious judge, is death by stoning or beheading.â
I folded my arms and looked away from the Time Traveler.
âUnder sharia â which will be the universal law of Eurabia,â persisted the Time Traveler, âthe value of a dhimmiâs life, the value of your grandchildren, is one half the value of a Muslimâs life. Jews and Christians are worth one-third of a Muslim. Indian Parsees are worth one-fifteenth. In a court of the Eurabian Caliphate or the Global Khalifate, if a Muslim murders a dhimmi, any infidel, he must pay a blood money fine not to exceed one thousand euros. No Muslim will ever be jailed or sentenced to death for the murder of any dhimmi or any number of dhimmis. If the murders were done under the auspices of Universal Compulsive Jihad, which will be sanctioned by sharia as of 2019 Common Era, all blood money fines are waived.â
âGo away,â I said. âGo back to wherever you came from.â
âI come from here,â said the Time Traveler. âFrom not so far from here.â
âBullshit,â I said.
âYour enemies have gathered and struck and continue to strike and you, the innocents of 2006 and beyond, fight among yourselves, chew and rip at your own bellies, blame your brothers and yourselves and your institutions of the Enlightenment â law, tolerance, science, democracy â even while your enemies grow stronger.â
âHow are we supposed to know who our enemies are?â I turned and growled at him. âThe world is a complex place. Morality is a complex thing.â
âYour enemy is he who will give his life to kill you,â said the Time Traveler. âYour enemies are they that wish you and your children and your grandchildren dead and who are willing to sacrifice themselves, or support those fanatics who will sacrifice themselves, to see you and your institutions destroyed. You havenât figured that out yet â the majority of you fat, sleeping, smug, infinitely stupid Americans and Europeans.â
He stood and set the Scotch glass back in its place on my sideboard. âHow, we wonder in my time,â he said softly, âcan you ignore the better part of a billion people who say aloud that they are willing to kill your children . . . or condone and celebrate the killing of them? And ignore them as they act on what they say? We do not understand you.â
I still had not turned to face him, but was looking over my shoulder at him.
âThe world, as it turns out,â continued the Time Traveler, âis not nearly so complex a place as your liberal and gentle minds sought to make it.â
I did not respond.
âThucydides taught us more than twenty-four hundred years ago â counting back from your time â that all menâs behavior is guided by phobos, kerdos, and doxa,â said the Time Traveler. âFear, self-interest, and honor.â
I pretended I did not hear.
âPlato saw human behavior as a chariot pulled by precisely those three powerful and headstrong horses, first tugged this way, then pulled that way,â continued the Time Traveler. âPhobos, kerdos, doxa. Fear, self-interest, honor. Which of these guides the chariot of your nation and your allies in Europe and your surprisingly fragile civilization now, O Man of 2006?â
I stared at the bookcase instead of the man and willed him gone, wishing him away like a sleepy boy willing away the boogeyman under his bed.
âWhich combination of those three traits â phobos, kerdos, doxa â will save or doom your world?â asked the Time Traveler. âWhich might bring you back from this vacation from history â from historyâs responsibilities and historyâs burdens â that you have all so generously gifted yourselves with? You peaceloving Europeans. You civil-liberties loving Americans? You Athenian invertebrates with your love of your own exalted sensibilities and your willingness to enter into a global war for civilizational survival even while you are too timid, too fearful . . . too decent . . . to match the ruthlessness of your enemies.â
I closed my eyes but that did not stop his voice.
âAt least understand that such decency goes away quickly when you are burying your children and your grandchildren,â rasped the Time Traveler. âOr watching them suffer in slavery. Ruthlessness deferred against totalitarian aggression only makes the later need for ruthlessness more terrible. Thousands of years of history and war should have taught you that. Did you fools learn nothing from living through the charnel house that was the 20th Century?â
Iâd had enough. I opened my eyes, turned, reached into the top left drawer of my desk, and pulled out the .38 revolver that I had owned for twenty-three years and fired only twice, at firing ranges, shortly after it was given to me as a gift.
I aimed it at the Time Traveler. âGet out,â I said.
He showed no reaction. âDo you want more than words?â he asked softly. âI will give you more than words. I give you eight million Jews dead in Israel â incinerated â and many more dead Jews in Eurabia and around the world. I give you the continent of Europe cast back more than five hundred years into sad pools of warring civilizations.â
âGet out,â I repeated, aiming the revolver higher.
âI give you an Asian world in chaos, a Pacific rim ruled by China after the vacuum of Americaâs withdrawal â this nationâs full resources devoted to fighting, and possibly losing, the Century War â a South America and Mexico lost to corruption and appeasement, a resurgent Russian Empire that has reclaimed its old dominated republics and more, and a Canada split into three hateful nations.â
I cocked the pistol. The click sounded very loud in the small room.
âWe were speaking about ruthlessness,â said the Time Traveler. âIf you fail to understand it at first, you learn it quickly enough in a war like the one you are allowing to come. Would you like to hear the litany of Islamic shrines and cities that will blossom in nuclear retaliatory fire in the decades to come?â
âGet out,â I said for a final time. âIâm ruthless enough to shoot you, and by God I will if you donât get out of here.â
The Time Traveler nodded. âAs you wish. But you should hear two last words, two last names . . .religious judge Ubar ibn al-Khattab and rector-imam Ismail Nawahda of New Al-Azhar University in London, part of the 200,000-man Golden Mosque of the New Islamic Khalifate in Eurabia.â
âWhat are those names to me or me to them?â I asked. My finger was on the trigger of the cocked .38.
âThese religious officials were on the Islamic Tribunal that sentenced two dhimmis to death by stoning and beheading,â said the Time Traveler. âThe dhimmis were your two grandsons, Thomas and Daniel.â
âWhat was . . . will be . . . their crime?â I was able to ask after a long minute. My tongue felt like a strip of rough cotton.
âThey dated two Muslim women â Thomas while he was in London on business, Daniel while visiting his aging mother, your daughter, in Canada â without first converting to Islam. That part of sharia, Islamic law, is called hudud, and we know quite a bit about it in my time. Your grandsons didnât know the young women were Muslim since they both were dressed in modern garb - -thus violating their own societyâs ironclad rule of Hijab â modesty. The girls, I hear, also died, but those were not sharia sentences. Not hudud. Their brothers and fathers murdered them. Honor killings . . . I think youâve already heard the phrase by 2006.â
If I were to shoot him, I had to do it now. My hand was shaking more fiercely every second.
âOf course, the odds against one sharia court in London sentencing both your grandsons to death for crimes committed as far apart as London and Quebec City is too much of a coincidence to believe in,â continued the Time Traveler. âAs is the fact that they would both be introduced to Muslim girls, without knowing they were Muslim, and go on a single dinner date with them at the same time, in cities so far apart. And Thomas was married. I know he thought he was having a business dinner with a client.â
âWhat . . .â I began, my arm holding the pistol shaking as if palsied.
The Time Traveler laughed a final time. âAll of your grandsonsâ names were on lists. You wrote something . . . will soon write something . . . that will put your name, and all your descendentsâ names, on their list. Including your only surviving grandson.â
I opened my mouth but did not speak.
âAccording to their own writings, which we all know well in my day,â continued the Time Traveler, â âHadith Malik 511:1588 The last statement that Muhammad made was: âO Lord, perish the Jews and Christians. They made churches of the graves of their prophets. There shall be no two faiths in Arabia.â And there are not. All infidels â Christians, Jews, secularists â have been executed, converted, or driven out. Israel is cinders. Eurabia and the New Khalifate is growing, absorbing what was left of the old, weak cultures there that once dreamt of a European Union. The Century War is not near over. Two of your three grandsons are now dead. Your remaining grandson still fights, as does one of your surviving granddaughters. Two of your three living granddaughters now live under sharia within the aegis of New Khalifate. They are women of the veil.â
I lowered the pistol.
â Enjoy these last days and months and years of your slumber, Grandfather,â said the scarred old man. âYour wake-up call is coming soon.â
The Time Traveler said three last words and was gone.
I put the pistol away â realizing too late that it had never been loaded â and sat down to write this. I could not. I waited these three months to try again.
Oh, Lord, I wish that some person on business from Porlock would wake me from this dream.
It was not the horrors of his revelations about my grandchildren that had shaken me the most deeply, shaken me to the core of my core, but rather the the Time Travelerâs last three words. Three words that any Replayer or time traveler visiting here from a century or more from now would react to first and most emotionally â three words I will not share here in this piece nor ever plan to share, at least until everyone on Earth knows them â three words that will keep me awake nights for months and years to come.
Three words.
Sincerely,
Mine are 31 and 29.
“They will not like having to give up their religion of apathy.”
How true. Germans are almost bovine in their attitude toward life. As long as they can stand and chew their cud, they don’t want to get involved, though the butcher is at the gate.
No , Germany will just end up a pile of rubble .
....................................................
a pile of rubble AGAIN, but this time there will be no Marshall Plan.
They must create the conditions such that these hordes WANT to go home.
....................................................
SHIP them home whether they WANT to go or not.
Deutschland unter alles.
I don’t want to shoot nobody; but my dad didn’t fight the
Nazis in WWII so I could just roll over & allow such an
outrage. - I’m praying Yahweh resolves this mess SOON.
I’ve told him I don’t want to shoot nobody; but looks like
I’m gonna have to keep doing the target practices. - I
still can’t seem to get bullseyes; but I think I do fairly
OK. :O/
there are German males whom cannot grow a beard!
