Last Sunday, throughout the Western world, supporters of Hamas – and, presumably, of its Iranian masters – gathered by the hundreds and thousands to celebrate Saturday’s genocidal attacks on citizens of Israel. In Salt Lake City, members of the Party for Socialism and Liberation danced. In Montreal, protestors shouted “Down, down, Israel! Free, free Palestine!” In New York, the Democratic Socialists of America (whose members include Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and Rashida Tlaib) chanted “From the river to the sea, Palestine will be free!” and a bearded preacher screamed “This is the correct religion….We will not stop until it enters every home!”
In Washington, D.C., a crowd intoned “Fight for liberation, bring the whole thing down!” In Brighton, England, a speaker called the attacks “beautiful and inspiring.” In Sydney, the cry was “Gas the Jews!” In Rotterdam, in Atlanta, in the Swedish city of Malmö, in San Francisco, in one city after another, the brutal murder of women and children was cheered as the Palestinian flags waved in the autumn breeze.
Of course, Hamas’s actions on Saturday were far from the first example we’ve seen of Islamic hatred manifested on a massive scale. On 9/11, and on a number of other dark days since – at the Atocha railway station in Madrid in 2004, on the London underground in 2005, at the Boston Marathon in 2013, at the offices of Charlie Hebdo in Paris in 2015, at the Pulse nightclub in Orlando in 2016, on the Promenade des Anglais in Nice in 2016, at the Manchester Arena in 2017, and on many, many other occasions – naive Westerners were given the opportunity to wise up about the Religion of Peace.
Alas, millions still didn’t get it. The media saw to that. Duplicitous teachers and professors saw to that.
But Donald Trump got it. He wanted to put a brake on immigration from the countries most responsible for jihadist terror. He wanted to build a wall in order to prevent the entry of undesirables into the U.S. In return for setting forth these eminently reasonable objectives, he was branded a racist and xenophobe by the mainstream media, and his plans were stymied at every turn by his left-wing enemies in the D.C. swamp and the federal judiciary.
Trump did more. Where his predecessors had poured tons of cash into the Palestinian territories, thereby helping to fund terrorism, he cut off the flow – and was described as heartless. He canceled Obama’s Iran deal. Plus, making the most of America’s leverage, and ignoring the absurd logic of previous administrations (which had insisted on putting Palestinians at the center of every attempt to make peace in the Middle East and normalize Israel’s status among its Islamic neighbors), Trump engineered the Abraham Accords between Israel, on the one hand, and the United Arab Emirates, Morocco, and Bahrain, on the other – a historic achievement that the media, and all of his enemies, almost immediately dropped down the memory hole.
Trump put America first – and everything he did, or wanted to do, in relation to the Middle East was intended, above all, to make America safer. But when his enemies managed to install Joe Biden in the Oval Office, the first thing that the new President’s puppeteers did was to reverse Trump’s policies – thereby making an assault on Israel far more likely.
And if what happened in Israel on Saturday was horrible, what happened around the world on Sunday was deeply sobering. Because those demonstrations showed us just how many people living within the borders of free Western societies are, in fact, enemies of freedom and champions of jihad. Some of them are foreign-born. Some are Muslims. Some are ardent Communists, rabid anti-Semites, ignorant bien pensant types who think that being fellow travelers of Islam makes them virtuous. Some, like the “Queers for Palestine,” are outright fools who don’t seem to grasp that they are cheering for people who would draw and quarter them at the first opportunity.
Despite all the pro-Hamas demos on Sunday, there have been several developments that have made me feel as if something positive is happening. I can only hope I’m right.
First, this. In Britain, where shamelessly praising and placating Muslims has been official policy for years – and where critics of Islam have been thrown in prison – Prime Minister Rishi Sunak, speaking at a synagogue on Monday night, called Hamas “terrorists,” said that “there are not two sides to these events,” and praised Israel as the only democracy in the Middle East. These remarks felt…different. Very different.
I don’t know Charlotte Corbett of South Africa, but on Monday she wrote on Facebook that on Zulu, Xhosa, and Swati media (with “a combined listenership of over 40 million”) support for Israel, thanks largely to “the sharing of videos on social media,” has been well-nigh unanimous, with some listeners saying that they’ve “chang[ed] their opinion completely” about the situation in the Middle East.
Then there’s this. A few weeks ago, I dropped CNN and BBC from my cable TV package out of disgust with their relentless pro-left, anti-Trump propaganda. But I re-subscribed on Sunday so that I could see for myself how they were reporting on the war in Israel. On Monday, I was surprised by the degree to which the reporters and anchors on those networks were willing to call a spade a spade.
Early in the day, a CNN anchorwoman choked back tears as she introduced a report about the massacre at the Nova Music Festival in the southern Israeli desert. Later, the usually execrable Christiane Amanpour ended an interview with a young survivor of the music festival by saying: “Thank God you had a guardian angel.” Still later, Anderson Cooper actually called Hamas a “terror group” (not “fighters” or “militants”); after Becky Anderson interviewed a tearful young Israeli woman whose family was missing, Cooper was so palpably moved that he couldn’t speak for several very long seconds. Even later, Jake Tapper used the words “depravity” and “barbarism” and “inhumanity” and told an Israeli woman who runs an emergency medical services organization: “God bless you.”
These are people who, in reporting on jihadist terror over the years, could be counted on to downplay any mention of Islam, to ascribe reasonable-sounding motives to the evildoers, to practice moral equivalence, and to express concern about anti-Muslim “backlash.” I wondered: could it really be that this time around, the monstrousness of Hamas’s actions had finally awakened at least a few of Islam’s longtime media apologists and enablers? Or were they already preparing to pivot on a dime? Was this, in short, just a passing phase that would end when Israel started taking Gaza apart?
Alas, by Tuesday afternoon at least some of the CNN talking heads already seemed to be on the verge of returning to their old ways. As the Israeli journalist Caroline Glick pointed out on Tuesday evening, people in the West are quick to sympathize with Jews when they’re victimized, but they hate “courageous Jews…who stand up for themselves and their rights and fight for their country.”
Here’s a question: now that it’s clearer than ever that rabid fans of jihadist butchery proliferate in pretty much every major city in the Western world, will Western governments do anything at all about it? In the U.S., devout Catholics, parents who don’t want their kids taught transgender ideology and Critical Race Theory, January 6 “insurrectionists,” and Trump voters generally have been treated by the FBI as threats to American freedom and security. What are these noble G-men going to do about the armies of jihad enthusiasts who showed their true faces on Sunday and who truly are threats to American freedom and security?
On Tuesday, in the Dutch House of Representatives, Geert Wilders noted the pro-Hamas rallies that took place in several Dutch cities last weekend and asked Prime Minister Mark Rutte what he plans to do about these enemies within. That is precisely the question that should be posed to every Western leader: what are you going to do about this? What are you going to do to protect our country from experiencing an atrocity, sooner or later, like the one Hamas perpetrated on Saturday?
A couple more questions. If Donald Trump isn’t returned to the White House, is there any hope at all for an America containing heaven knows how many Hamas aficionados? If he is returned to the White House, will he be able to deport enough of these people to make a difference?
Finally, is it possible that the sheer savagery of Saturday’s attacks will awaken long-dormant citizens around the Western world to the reality of Islam and persuade them, at long last, to save their own countries before it’s too late? Or will this moment pass, just as the post-9/11 feeling of unity, rage, and patriotism did, and give way to yet more whitewashing, pusillanimity, self-censorship, and appeasement?
There are some that will never “wake up” because they are as evil as Hamas.
There are a few sane, sensible, freedom-loving people in the "West"...and then there are millions upon millions of brainwashed Marxist zombies.
For people who haven't been paying attention, the Marxist zombies are applauding Hamas.
Playing nice with a Crocodile will only delay the inevitable, at best.

How Islam progressively takes over countries
September 23, 201566222572
By Mark Ellis
Peter HammondDr. Peter Hammond
In Dr. Peter Hammond’s book, “Slavery, Terrorism and Islam,” he documents the way Muslims slowly develop a presence in various countries and as their population numbers build, become more aggressive and assertive about exercising Sharia law.
“Islam is not a religion, nor is it a cult. In its fullest form, it is a complete, total, 100% system of life,” Dr. Hammond notes in his book. “Islam has religious, legal, political, economic, social, and military components. The religious component is a beard for all of the other components.”
Their takeover of a country, what Dr. Hammond refers to as “Islamization,” begins when the population of Muslims reaches a critical mass, and they being to agitate for various privileges.
Open, free, democratic societies are particularly vulnerable. “When politically correct, tolerant, and culturally diverse societies agree to Muslim demands for their religious privileges, some of the other components tend to creep in as well,” he notes.
book coverbook cover
This is how it works, according to Dr. Hammond:
When the Muslim population remains under 2% in a country, they will be seen primarily as a peace-loving minority and not as a threat to other citizens. This is the current situation in:
United States — Muslim 0.6%
Australia — Muslim 1.5%
Canada — Muslim 1.9%
China — Muslim 1.8%
Italy — Muslim 1.5%
Norway — Muslim 1.8%
As the Muslim population reaches 2% to 5%, they begin to recruit from ethnic minorities and disaffected groups, within prisons and street gangs. This is happening in:
Denmark — Muslim 2%
Germany — Muslim 3.7%
United Kingdom — Muslim 2.7%
Spain — Muslim 4%
Thailand — Muslim 4.6%
“From 5% on, they exercise an inordinate influence in proportion to their percentage of the population,” Dr. Hammond notes. “For example, they will push for the introduction of halal (clean by Islamic standards) food” and increase pressure on supermarket chains to feature such food on their shelves — along with threats for failure to comply. This is happening in:
France — Muslim 8%
Philippines — 5%
Sweden — Muslim 5%
Switzerland — Muslim 4.3%
The Netherlands — Muslim 5.5%
Trinidad & Tobago — Muslim 5.8%
Soon they begin to apply pressure to allow Sharia law within their own communities (sometimes ghettos).
“When Muslims approach 10% of the population, they tend to increase lawlessness as a means of complaint about their conditions,” Dr. Hammond notes. “In Paris, we are already seeing car-burnings. Any non-Muslim action offends Islam, and results in uprisings and threats, such as in Amsterdam, with opposition to Mohammed cartoons and films about Islam.” These tensions are seen on a regular basis in:
Guyana — Muslim 10%
Riots in Pakistan, 2013Riots in Pakistan, 2013
India — Muslim 13.4%
Israel — Muslim 16%
Kenya — Muslim 10%
Russia — Muslim 15%
The violence increases when the Muslim population reaches 20%. “After reaching 20%, nations can expect hair-trigger rioting, jihad militia formations, sporadic killings, and the burnings of Christian churches and Jewish synagogues,” such as in:
Ethiopia — Muslim 32.8%
“At 40%, nations experience widespread massacres, chronic terror attacks, and ongoing militia warfare,” such as in:
Bosnia — Muslim 40%
Chad — Muslim 53.1%
Lebanon — Muslim 59.7%
From 60%, persecution of non-believing “infidels” rises significantly, including sporadic ethnic cleansing (genocide), use of Sharia law as a weapon, and Jizya, a tax placed on infidels, such as in:
Albania — Muslim 70%
Malaysia — Muslim 60.4%
Qatar — Muslim 77.5%
Sudan — Muslim 70%
After 80%, expect daily intimidation and violent jihad, some State-run ethnic cleansing, and even some genocide, as these nations drive out “infidels,” and move toward a 100% Muslim society, which has been experienced to some degree in:
Bangladesh — Muslim 83%
Egypt — Muslim 90%
Gaza — Muslim 98.7%
Indonesia — Muslim 86.1%
Iran — Muslim 98%
Iraq — Muslim 97%
Jordan — Muslim 92%
Morocco — Muslim 98.7%
Pakistan — Muslim 97%
Palestine — Muslim 99%
Syria — Muslim 90%
Tajikistan — Muslim 90%
Turkey — Muslim 99.8%
United Arab Emirates — Muslim 96%
A 100% Muslim society will theoretically usher in their version of peace — the peace of ‘Dar-es-Salaam’ — the Islamic House of Peace. “Here there’s supposed to be peace, because everybody is a Muslim, the Madrassas are the only schools, and the Koran is the only word,” such as in:
Afghanistan — Muslim 100%
Saudi Arabia — Muslim 100%
Somalia — Muslim 100%
Yemen — Muslim 100%
Dr. Hammond observes this Islamic ideal is seldom realized. “Unfortunately, peace is never achieved, as in these 100% states the most radical Muslims intimidate and spew hatred, and satisfy their blood lust by killing less radical Muslims, for a variety of reasons.”
“It is important to understand that in some countries, with well under 100% Muslim populations, such as France, the minority Muslim populations live in ghettos, within which they are 100% Muslim, and within which they live by Sharia law,” he states.
Dr. Hammond is also concerned by demographic trends. “Today’s 1.5 billion Muslims make up 22% of the world’s population,” he observes. “But their birth rates dwarf the birth rates of Christians, Hindus, Buddhists, Jews, and all other believers. Muslims will exceed 50% of the world’s population by the end of this century.”
Dr. Peter Hammond is a missionary who has pioneered evangelistic outreaches in the war zones of Mozambique, Angola and Sudan. Peter has travelled hundreds of thousands of miles to deliver Bibles to persecuted Christians in Africa and Eastern Europe.
He is the Founder and Director of Frontline Fellowship, the Founder and Chairman of Africa Christian Action, the Director of the Christian Action Network and the Chairman of The Reformation Society and the author of numerous missions-related books. He is the Editor of both Frontline Fellowship News and Christian Action.
Peter has developed the Biblical Worldview Seminar and Great Commission Course to mobilize churches to comprehensively apply the Lordship of Christ to all areas of life and to fulfill the Great Commission.
Peter was born in Cape Town and brought up in Rhodesia – now Zimbabwe. He converted to Christ in 1977, worked in Scripture Union and Hospital Christian Fellowship, served in the South African Defense Force and studied at Baptist Theological College, Cape Town. He also earned a Doctorate in Missiology. For more information about his book, go here.

A very short history lesson:
In 732 AD the Muslim Army which was moving on Paris was defeated and
turned back at Tours, France, by Charles Martell.
…in 1571 AD the Muslim Army/ Navy was defeated by the Italians and
Austrians as they tried to cross the Mediterranean to attack southern Europe
in the Battle of Lepanto.
…in 1683 AD the Turkish Muslim Army, attacking Eastern Europe, was finally
defeated in the Battle of Vienna by German and Polish Christian Armies.
In 1783 AD when the British Colonies that would become the United States of
America gained independence from Great Britain, 5 Muslim countries of North
Africa declared war on our newly independent nation, hijacking and
kidnapping merchant sailors and selling them for ransom, or into slavery.
When the United States of America was established, we were forced to pay
extortion fees amounting to 20 – 25% of our federal budget to those Muslim
countries to keep them from their hijacking and kidnapping. It took two
administrations, Washington and Adams, to build a sufficient Navy so that
President Jefferson, in 1805, could send the Navy and Marines to conquer
Tripoli and end the piracy. Islam has been at war with the USA since our
founding.
If these battles had not been won we might be speaking Arabic and
Christianity could be non – existent; Judaism certainly would be… And let
us not forget that Hitler was an admirer of Islam and that the Mufti of
Jerusalem was Hitler’s guest in Berlin and raised Bosnian Muslim SS
Divisions: the 13th and 21st Waffen SS Divisions who killed Jews, Russians,
Gypsies, and any other “subhumans”.
This crap has been going on for 1,400 years and half of the
politicians don’t even know it..!
Reflecting
A lot of Americans have become so insulated from reality that they imagine
that America can suffer defeat without any inconvenience to themselves.
Pause a moment, reflect back. These events are actual events from history.
They really happened!!
Do you remember? I remember All of These
1. In 1968, Bobby Kennedy was shot and killed by a Muslim male.
2. In 1972 at the Munich Olympics, athletes were kidnapped and massacred by
Muslim males.
3. In 1972 a Pan Am 747 was hijacked and eventually diverted to Cairo where
a fuse was lit on final approach, it was blown up shortly after landing by
Muslim males.
4. In 1973 a Pan Am 707 was destroyed in Rome , with 33 people killed, when
it was attacked with grenades by Muslim males.
5. In 1979, the US embassy in Iran was taken over by Muslim males.
6. During the 1980’s a number of Americans were kidnapped in Lebanon by
Muslim males.
7. In 1983, the US Marine barracks in Beirut was blown up by Muslim males.
8. In 1985, the cruise ship Achille Lauro was hijacked and a 70 year old
American passenger was murdered and thrown overboard in his wheelchair by
Muslim males.
9. In 1985, TWA flight 847 was hijacked at Athens , and a US Navy diver
trying to rescue passengers was murdered by Muslim males.
10. In 1988, Pan Am Flight 103 was bombed by Muslim males.
11. In 1993 , the World Trade Center was bombed the first time by Muslim
males.
12. In 1998, the US embassies in Kenya and Tanzania were bombed by Muslim
males.
13. On 9/11/01, four airliners were hijacked; two were used as missiles to
take down the World Trade Centers and of the remaining two, one crashed into
the US Pentagon and the other was diverted and crashed by the passengers.
Thousands of people were killed by Muslim males.
14. In 2002, the United States fought a war in Afghanistan against Muslim
males.
15. In 2002, reporter Daniel Pearl was kidnapped and beheaded by—you
guessed it—a Muslim male.
16. In 2013, Boston Marathon Bombing 4 Innocent people including a child
killed, 264 injured by Muslim males.
17. In 2014, thousands of Christian men, women, and children are
slaughtered, defiled, and beheaded by Muslim males.
No, I really don’t see a pattern here to justify profiling, do you? So, to
ensure we Americans never offend anyone, particularly fanatics intent on
killing us, airport security screeners will no longer be allowed to profile
certain people.
Absolutely No Profiling! Instead, they must conduct random searches of
80-year-old women, little kids, airline pilots with proper identification,
secret agents who are members of the President’s security detail, 85-year
old’s, Congressmen with metal hips, and Medal of Honor winner and former
Governor Joe Foss, BUT leave Muslim Males alone lest airport security be
guilty of profiling.
Have the American people completely lost their Minds, or just their Power of
Reason???
Let’s send this to as many people as we can so that the Gloria Aldreds and
other stupid attorneys, along with Federal Justices that want to thwart
common sense, feel ashamed of themselves — if they have any such sense.
As the writer of the award winning story ‘Forrest Gump’ so aptly put it,
“STUPID IS AS STUPID DOES”
No it won’t awaken the west because the terror coddling, terror supporting left will always try to make it seem as though they don’t actually support the terror but rather they support a more “refined” form of Islam that they suggest isn’t as violent- they ignore passages in the Koran that espouse violence and crimes agaisnt “infidels”, while suggesting that Islam proper is “nothing like the radical violent terrorist factions that swell up within the religion”
We all know better and see the cheering and celebrating when Hamasaki and ilk commit horrendous crimes agaisnt humanity, bit the left and th3 msm downplay that and gaslight the public into thinking that all the palis “really want” is peace.
The west seems to be terrified of islama and therefore will never do or say anything to show it in a bad light. They think that it can be placate, appeased, conjoled into getting along with the west and liv9ng peaceably within the borders. Another way of not doing or saying anything to anger the terrorists is allowing th3m to pour into the country unvetted and unopposed. This results in the feet made of iron and clay which can never keep the whole nation/statue upright for very long. The clay weakens the iron and topples it all.
Trump is right in saying that illegals are undermining the nation because the nation is too feckless to call out the bad behavior once they are here. (Like Trump, I am not suggesting that every LEGAL migrant who went through the process legally are bad- some are not, BUT nearly 70% end up on welfare, while a staggering amount resort to crime.- and it’s even worse among the illegal invaders!)
That sure would be a blessing if true.
ISLAM = The Religion of DEATH
