I am absolutely suffering from Islamafatigue. Spouse is sopping it up on the tube daily. No, I dont care about Islam and its tenets. Since reading Fifteen Decisive Battles Of The World by Edward Creasy. (Battle of Tours 732 AD)- I am all to well aware of the titanic struggles between Western civilization and Islam.
The American media is collectively anal retentive when it comes to explaining a mortal enemy of our way of life. Just as they coddle rogue politicans, baby killers and glorify any single criminal act that will sell a newspaper or drag in a viewer, they are now glorifying a entire region of the world.
WHY??
FEAR. Out and out, pure unadultuarated FEAR.
They have been banned from an entire country, Lock, stock and video camera. The biggest investor in AOL/Time Werner has just been outted as the Saudi Prince who got smacked in the wallet by Rudy. (GO RUDY!) If the American Media pukes comprehesibly educate the American people on what Major Jenerette is saying, The teachings of Islam would be a history book. Not a religion.
Senorita Jennings is said to be a target.. Ooooh scary (NOT). Blathering Dan is incoherent lately, and the richest set of gums on TV, bloutable Ophra is on the band wagen of islamic education/propaganda to the free world.
The real down home soccer moms, used car salemen, machinists, mechanics and even insurance agents for a short list of Americans know dam well who the bad guys are and only collectively want one thing.....A secure nation for their kids to grow up in.
But once again FEAR sticks its stinky little head in there and explains that we can shoot this person because there bad, but not this person because there bad. HUH? And if we do they will retaliate..HUH?
The inescapable answer is mind boggling. 873A.D. Islam almost took Europe but was squashed. That's pretty far back. How many "Religous wars" has this planet seen since then?
How many more do we have to endure before we can live without war? I remember one of my Uncles (ex-Navy WW2) saying to me, during the Vietnam era, that all nations should disarm. OK, but he never mentioned box cutters or even thought about them. We live in a global era. Safety in our daily lives is our primary goal. If erasing a warrior religion is our only hope, then its time we added one to the extinct religion list. If not, they need to cleanup there act once and for all. There are no hiding places on this planet where terror can live if we decide they should not.
YES, IF WE decide they should not. We are capable, we have the fire power. But we don't have the will. Because we can't comprehend religous genocide. And the civilians,, oh my...Where do you think warriors are from? We were all civilians once, and then with a little luck, we are once again, civilians. The little screaming, running, naked, starving babies that survive, can pick up a box cutter or a shoulder fired pop gun after we nuture them back to health. Red is red and hate is hate. If someone choses their path, they also accept the consquences of that path. Long winded I know, but one more ..
PATRICK HENRY ONCE SAID:
"Pacifists are among the most immoral of men. They make no distinction between aggression and defense. Therefore, pacifism is one of the greatest allies an aggressor can have!"
