Accurate explanation of nation’s ills…

The following is said to have been written by Ben Stein and recited by him on
CBS Sunday Morning Commentary.  Whether Snopes claims Ben or Batman wrote it all, it is all true.

“My confession:

I don't like getting pushed around for being a Jew, and I don't think Christians like getting pushed around for being Christians. I think people who believe in God are sick and tired of getting pushed around, period. I have no idea where the concept came from, that America is an explicitly atheist country. I can't find it in the Constitution and I don't like it being shoved down my throat...

Or maybe I can put it another way: where did the idea come from that we should worship celebrities and we aren't allowed to worship God as we understand Him? I guess that's a sign that I'm getting old, too. But there are a lot of us who are wondering where these celebrities came from and where
the America we knew went to.

In light of the many jokes we send to one another for a laugh, this is a little different: This is not intended to be a joke; it's not funny, it's intended to get you thinking.

In light of recent events... terrorists attack, school shootings, etc.. I think it started when Madeleine
Murray O'Hare (she was murdered, her body found a few years ago) complained she didn't want prayer in our schools, and we said OK. Then someone said you better not read the Bible in school... The Bible says thou shalt not kill; thou shalt not steal, and love your neighbor as yourself.

And we said OK.

Then Dr. Benjamin Spock said we shouldn't spank our children when they misbehave, because their little personalities would be warped and we might damage their self-esteem (Dr. Spock's son committed suicide). We said an expert should know what he's talking about..

 And we said okay..

Now we're asking ourselves why our children have no conscience, why they don't know right from wrong, and why it doesn't bother them to kill strangers, their classmates, and themselves.

Probably, if we think about it long and hard enough, we can figure it out. I think it has a great deal to do with 'WE REAP WHAT WE SOW.'

Funny how simple it is for people to trash God and then wonder why the world's going to hell. Funny how we believe what the newspapers say, but question what the Bible says. Funny how you can send 'jokes' through e-mail and they spread like wildfire, but when you start sending messages regarding the Lord, people think twice about sharing. Funny how lewd, crude, vulgar and obscene articles pass freely through cyberspace, but public discussion of God is suppressed in the school and workplace.

Are you laughing yet?

Funny how when you forward  this message, you will not send it to many on your address list because you're not sure what they believe, or what they will think of you for sending it.

Funny how we can be more worried about what other people think of us than what God thinks of us.

Pass it on if you think it has merit.

If not, then just discard it... no one will know you did. But, if you discard this thought process, don't sit back and complain about what bad shape the world is in.

My Best Regards, honestly and respectfully,

Ben Stein”

Affirmative action = White slight

From the very beginning, affirmative action has been legalized discrimination. It is a bad idea whose time has come and gone; that has served its liberal, guilt-suppressing purpose. And what do we have to show for it?  Barack Hussein Obama as president; a man that has been given preferential treatment throughout his college and political career despite his mediocre performance every step of the way.  I wonder how many brighter, more productive individuals were discriminated against to pave the way for his undeserved entitlements?

Penalizing those who are not entitled to affirmative action is painfully similar to what the dhimmi status does to non-Muslims:  They both create a second class status among those who don’t meet the affirmative action or Islamic “standard.”

What impact does this have on the second class Caucasians who have been subject to 40 years of such discrimination?  Here is one indication.  For the first time in American history, the number of white births fell behind the number of white deaths.  This is a sign of an oppressed group of people – two generations of individuals who have been told that hard work and success do not count.  Yes, there is a sense in our culture that having and raising children just takes too much away from our personal pleasure.  But there is also a sense of being subject to legalized oppression which is universally understood to dampen the spirit of those subject to such oppression.  Caucasians are people, too, who suffer no differently to spirit-damaging discrimination than other races have suffered.

Demographers suggest this decline in white cohort-survival numbers is temporary until the economy improves after which birthrates are forecast to increase.  I’m not confident of that.  First, the economy is not improving enough to make much difference.  Second, the society is still immersed in hedonism.  Third, affirmative action is continuing, which dampens the sense of worth and deflates the motivation to procreate among whites.

Whites are already a minority in several states, in many large cities and in the core of most large cities.  This minority status will spread to more states and cities as immigration (legal and illegal) continues, as birth rates of immigrants remain high, and as white birthrates continue to decline.

The thing about legislative social engineering is that those who have been conditioned to such legalized favoritism over decades form a strong entitlement lobby.  Their primary purpose in life is devoted to assuring affirmative action entitlements remain in place in perpetuity, if not increased – even if they are no longer a discriminated against minority.

With the current entitlement society mentality, we will soon see the day when Sharia-inspired Muslims will be given extraordinary privileges at the expense of the rest of us, despite the fact that their ideology is intolerant and oppressive to non-Muslims.  Already we are told we cannot express the truth of the history and current danger of the Islamist ideology lest we might offend.  

Affirmative action distorts reality, stifles motivation, and suppresses the truth.

Here is the article on the white birthrate:

White deaths outnumber births in US for first time
By Carol Morello and Ted Mellnik, The Washington Post
Posted June 13, 2013, at 5:46 a.m.

More white people died in the U.S. last year than were born, a surprising slump coming more than a decade before the census predicts that the ranks of white Americans will drop with every passing year.

Population estimates for 2012 released by the Census Bureau Thursday showed what’s known as a natural decrease — a straightforward calculation of births minus deaths — of about 12,400 people among the nation’s 198 million whites who are not Hispanic. Overall in Maine, the number of deaths exceeded births statewide in 2012.

Though the percentage is small, several demographers said they are not aware of another time in U.S. history — not even during the Depression or wartime — when the dominant racial group experienced such shrinkage. No other group showed a similar fall off.

The decrease was offset by 188,000 white immigrants, primarily from Canada and Germany, but also from Russia and Saudi Arabia. And non-Hispanic whites remain the single largest group, making up 63 percent of the country.

But demographers were surprised by the outsized drop in births compared to deaths, which the Census Bureau projects will begin happening with regularity by 2025.

“We’re jumping the gun on a long, slow decline of our white population, which is going to characterize this century,” said William Frey, a demographer with the Brookings Institution. “It’s a bookend from the last century, when whites heped us grow. Now it’s minorities who are going to make the contributions to our economic and population growth over the next 50 years.”

A number of demographic and economic factors are behind the slowdown that has been underway for several years.

As a group, non-Hispanic whites are considerably older than anyone else, with a median age of 42. The median age for Asians is 34. For African Americans, it’s under 32 and for Hispanics it’s under 28.

Women with college degrees of all races have been delaying marriage and childbearing to the end of their 20s and beyond, until they have finished their educations and established careers. Once they settle down, they tend to have fewer children. Census figures also show that white women are far more likely to be childless than Hispanic or African American women.

The recession that began in late 2007 exacerbated those longterm trends. Fertility rates have been slowly dropping since 2007. For white women, they are now below the level considered necessary to keep the population at a stable level. During the recession, researchers found women who had lost health insurance or whose partners were unemployed were reluctant to have more children at a time when they could least afford them.

This latest demographic fall is not the first harbinger of the future. Earlier this year, census figures showed that for the first time in U.S. history, a majority of newborn babies were minorities.

Ken Johnson, a demographer with the Carsey Institute at the University of New Hampshire, said the demographics suggest many people are making the decision about whether to have children as if the recession had not ended. Even if the fertility rates pick up, he said, there will be just a temporary lull before people born in the 1940s and 1950s start dying in large numbers.

“This has more to do with births than it does deaths,” he said. “Once this recession has waned, we’re probably going to see at least a temporary uptick in births, until death rates start to rise. Then there’ll be no stopping it.”

The decline in the non-Hispanic white population has happened more quickly than demographers with the Census Bureau have been predicting. That’s because both births and immigration levels, which can counter the drop, have slowed more than expected in recent years, said Jennifer Ortman, a demographer in the population projections division of the Census Bureau.

Census demographers expect the growth rate for non-Hispanic whites to resume going up, slowly, when the economy improves. Whites should peak in 2024, when the oldest baby boomers, who are overwhelmingly non-Hispanic whites, are well into their 70s and dying in larger numbers. After falling just short of 200 million every year.

The decrease for whites has little significance in the short term, said Dowell Myers, a demographer and urban planner who teaches at the University of Southern California.

“In California, we roll our eyes at this,” he said. “Whites have been a minority here since 1999. But whites are still a majority of voters. Babies don’t vote. Older people vote. So it doesn’t have any direct functional meaning.”

But Frey, the Brookings demographer, said the natural decrease in whites suggests the U.S. will need immigration to continue if it is going to thrive.

“It’s going to be clear soon, if it isn’t already, that we’re going to depend much more on our young, largely minority popoulation to keep not only the economy of the country going, but the well-being of our aging white population,” he said. Last year we saw the majority of babies are minorities. Now we see more whites are dying than being born. Together, that tells us a lot about where we’re going as a country.”

Edward Snowden: Traitor or Hero is a Traitor

Eddy Snowden, the 29-year old “morally superior” brat who used to have a top secret clearance is trying to frame the argument as if he is the one in control.  While his purpose has won some fans, his methods demonstrate the lack of maturity and judgment of a pre-pubescent playing with matches in a dynamite factory.  While he may continue exuding blockbuster comments for awhile, he is anything but in control.

Does he even care that he chose the road of “traitor” to make his point? 

He claims he is neither traitor nor hero.  That he is “an American.”

Well, Eddy baby.  News flash.  You are an idiot.  While you have your rebel fans, you sold out your claim to the moral high road when you chose the “tabloid trash” method of exposing a perceived wrong.  And that story is looking a bit dodgy.  Don’t you think there were better ways of getting the word out?  You know darn well you could have sought out a sympathetic Congressman or two (Rand Paul comes to mind) to initiate Congressional hearings.  That would have lent a lot more legitimacy to what now appears to be a case of espionage and sedition.

Does this acting-out juvenile know how bad it looks on his part, a high school dropout, bouncing on over to China for protection?  More and more every day it looks like he was a groomed traitor rather than a sincere whistle blower.  He did not take the whistler blower route.  He did not keep his concerns “in the family.”  Instead, he went to mommy media, then to papa China.  Seriously.

While I believe those in Washington controlling our national security priorities have an agenda that is not in our nation’s best interests, I have enough faith in our system to believe that there are some in Congress who would have listened to and acted on this guys’ complaints.

Aside from baby Eddys’ gross lack of judgment (giving him the benefit of the doubt) unless he really was a plant, he revealed a huge weakness in our nation’s ability to keep secrets:  Too many contractors with too little skill and attention to hiring and monitoring practices essential to maintain our national security. 

Not only does Eddy’s head need to roll, there needs to be some serious scrutiny of the counter-intelligence methods we have in place to assure there aren’t dozens of other baby Eddy’s running around spilling their secret guts.

Here’s a comment from a Telegraph article that sums up my view:

JReaS

I'm sorry, but I have a hard time accepting someone at Snowden's level deciding on his own to de-classify national security secrets, regardless of his motive.  Are we going to entrust our national security to some low level employee who decides they know better than everybody else?  Because that's what this comes down to. 

We head down this path and it won't take long before one of these "do-gooders" reveals information that directly leads to a terrorist attack and numerous casualties.

Bottom line, who is Edward Snowden to decide which national security secrets should be revealed to our enemies?  You might trust him to make those decisions, but I don’t.

Out of control government spying on the wrong targets

Government gone rogue…

Are you beginning to not recognize our nation?

What a combination of revelations over the last couple of weeks.  I’m all for tracking the Islamic threat in the US.  Wasn’t that what the post-9-11 new Department of Homeland Security and Patriot Act were created to address?

Talk about  the American people being duped.  I was all for the Patriot Act after 9-11.  I was naïve enough to believe we could trust the federal government – believe what they said, and believed that they would do the “right thing” following 9-11 – go after the “bad guys.”  I should have known better when days after 9-11 President Bush declared Islam is a “religion of peace” and one of his first stops was the Muslim Mosque in DC to help make Muslims feel more secure about their hatred of our our way of life.  But I didn’t.  My oh my what oil money will buy.

Instead, over the past several years, particularly under the Obama regime, we have learned that Homeland Security has been targeting returning vets, and gun and Bible owning patriots.

And now, this week, we learn that the federal government has focused its spying on conservatives, reporters, and phone-subscribing Americans – through every means imaginable, and more.  What happened to the focus on the Islamic ideology that attacked us and continues to do so?  Sadly, that never has been the focus.  We are all suspects!

What we have is a government that has subverted the published intention of the Patriot Act – which was to defend our country against the Islamists who attacked and promised to attack again, and have - and turned it against Christian, Jewish, atheist, and agnostic Americans.   So not only has Washington ignored the real threat, Islamists, and focused it on patriotic Americans, but they have done it in an extraordinarily invasive and draconian manner.   My trust in the federal government has plummeted to the point that I feel like I live in a hostile foreign country.

It appears that every agency of the Federal Government is charged with the mission of ignoring Islamists and going after the average Joe American.  Yeah, you and I might not have anything to hide.  But there are sickening consequences for those of us who are caught in the cross-hairs of Washington treachery -  against those of us with the “wrong” belief system or ideology.  We are not “liberal”.  We are not “Muslim.”  We are not for “big government.”  We are the target.  Some of us, the Tea Parties, bloggers, outspoken citizens who write to their representatives, may face various forms of federal intimidation and punishment.  It may be from the IRS.  It may be from various licensing or inspection bureaus, it may be through health care manipulation.  The scenarios are endless.

I haven’t bothered posting any links to the myriad of news stories coming out fast and furiously on scandal upon scandal - intrusion upon intrusion – because the revelations are legion.

But here are the story headlines from the Drudge Report on June 6, 2013:

THE INTERNET FROM HELL

And just for the record:  Our federal government is under the influence of pro-Islamic interests and defenders more than I would have ever believed just three months ago.  There is a reason why our government officials don’t tell the truth about Islam and its orthodox fascists doctrines.  They are complicit, influenced, manipulated, and ignorant.  The Obama administration has invited dozens of so-called “moderate” Muslims (many of whom with ties to the Muslim Brotherhood which vows the demise of our nation) into national security positions.  Those of us who attempt to tell the truth about Islam are the new enemy – along with many of our friends and neighbors who are not thrilled with Washington.  And recent revelations of the targets of the Orwellian government intrusion into our lives is one proof.  Expect more treachery from a federal government agency gone bad near you.

Here are several recently published books that document the sad reality of Islamist domination of Washington:

• The Case for Islamophobia
• Obama and Islam
• The Grand Jihad
• The Terrorist Next Door:  How the government is deceiving you about the Islamist threat
• Christianity Islam and Atheism

Unlike many who are more libertarian than I am, I would not have minded extensive government surveillance targeted at the appropriate profile of likely terrorist, the overwhelming majority of whom have proven to be male Muslims between the ages of 15 and 40.  But to see the target shifted to mom and pop Americans is utterly sickening.

Why I am not Catholic: Outrageous pronouncements from the Pope

Lumen Gentium Section 16 was bad enough with its universalism and favoring of Islam.  Now we have the new Pope praising atheists and Muslim leaders.

Here is the full story from Christian News, with my commentary on excerpts, below:

Rome, Italy – Pope Francis held his first ecumenical meeting at the Vatican Wednesday, greeting Christian, Muslim and Jewish leaders, as well as those who ascribe to no faith at all.

Ain’t ecumenicalism a wonderful thing.

He then praised the Muslim leaders that had also come for the meeting, remarking that they were men who “adore the one, living, and merciful God and who call upon Him in prayer.”

With all due respect, Pope, this is an exceedingly ignorant, misleading, and dangerous comment.  The Allah of Islam shares NOTHING in common with the God of the Bible.  Muslim leaders around the globe urge the wrath of HELL upon those infidels who believe in the “polytheism” of the Christian God.  And the “wrath of hell” is to be initiated by fellow Muslims, personally, in this life, as opposed to waiting around for God’s justice in the next.  This is, in part, what informs and motivates Muslims worldwide to hate Jews and Christians and promote the killing of us:  Because our God is different from their Allah.  While the Pope may not consider his statement to be a lie, it is not true.  He is being as disingenuously “politically correct” as any atheistic faux Christian politician in the United States.    He is also being unhelpful with regard to his flocks understanding of the nature of the Islamic ideology that is in the process of destroying the Catholic Church.  Having made a statement like this, I would not be surprised if he appointed a Muslim to his inner circle given his perceived “similarities” in their belief systems.

Likewise, while he commented that the “attempt to eliminate God and the Divine from the horizon of humanity” by some has been disastrous for the world, Francis also extended a welcome to atheists and those who ascribe to no particular religion.

This is beyond ecumenicalism.  Here is the clincher:

“I feel close to all men and women who, although not claiming to belong to any religious tradition, still feel themselves to be in search of truth, goodness and beauty,” he said. “[Atheists and nones] are our precious allies in the effort to defend human dignity, in building a peaceful coexistence between peoples, and in carefully protecting creation.”

Precious allies?  Atheists have no moral basis for doing what they do.  Atheists, for the most part, are the very ones who promote abortion, infanticide, gay marriage, and homosexuality.  The Pope might as well enter into a pact with Satan, if he believes in such being, which I am prone to doubt.  Francis, as well as recently minted Catholic doctrine, provide little reason to be Catholic if being Muslim and atheist can be so highly regarded by the head of the Catholic Church.

Reports state that a number of atheists are favorable toward the new pope, mainly because of his humanitarian goals.

This is not surprising given the Pope’s abrogation of historic Catholic distinctions and doctrine.  If the Pope prayed to Mecca he would receive the same accolades from Muslims.

In an article entitled Why This Atheist Has a New Hope in Pope Francis, author Luis Ruuska echoed this sentiment from a personal standpoint.

“As an atheist, I should not have any interest in the matters of the Catholic Church. … But I do,” he wrote. “I care about who is the head of the Catholic Church because similar to the way that one country’s economy can have drastic effects on another’s, what direction the world’s 1.2 billion Catholics take affects the rest of us.”

Luis cares about anyone who compliments atheism.  If the Pope buddied up with abortionists, abortionists would praise the Pope, too.

“If attitudes within Catholicism on women and women’s rights, poverty, and the LGBTQ community change on the global scale starting with the Vatican, then they will gradually change on the country-by-country scale as well,” Ruuska explained. “I do believe the pontiff to be a genuine man when it comes to taking care of the poor and perhaps we will see an increased interest in combating poverty from the Catholic Church.”

“I might not believe in God, but I believe that Catholics and atheists can work together just as all of humanity can work together towards equality and justice when we put the needs of modern people first and the arcane doctrine second,” he concluded. “He might not be the one to approve doctrine condoning same-sex marriage or approve doctrine changing global attitudes towards women and their rights, but Pope Francis certainly has all of the makings to shift the Catholic Church in a progressive direction; that is, if he wants to.”

Yup, this atheist is given hope by the Pope that the Church will come around to support the pop cultural norms of immorality, including homosexuality, equality of outcomes (socialism/communism), same-sex marriage and the rest of human licentiousness that Christianity has abhorred for 2,000 years.  Yes, this Pope does indeed have all the makings to shift the Catholic Church in a progressive direction “if he wants to.”   And given his misdirected and indiscreet ecumenicalism, he may just want to.

What happens if we continue to deny the truth about Islam?

Have you considered what the United States might be going through in five, ten, or twenty years if we, our leaders and media, continue to deny, ignore, or fabricate the truth of Islam, its history, its motives and methods?

Assuming that the Islamophobes are correct and Islam is NOT a “religion of peace” and is in fact out to dominate infidel nations (as they have done to massive extents at least twice since Muhammad terrorized the region around Mecca and Medina), how might that affect you, your kids and grandkids, our government, our freedoms, our culture and our way of life?

Diana West’s latest book, American Betrayal, amply demonstrates how our government ignored and lied about Communist influence in the 30’s, 40’s and 50’s in the same way our current government is ignoring and lying about Islamic influence and intentions today.

The Three Scenarios

Recognizing the reality of government deception, whatever the motive, let’s take a look at several scenarios and outcomes of those scenarios with regard to Islam:

Scenario One:   Denial of Reality of Islam.  This is the path we are on today.  This scenario assumes a continuation on this path.   Faux assimilation  is promoted by our government and media facilitated by ignoring and lying about the truth of Islam, believing it is as benign as any other religion when in fact it is a fascist, supremacist and violent ideology at its core and from its inception.   We continue to blindly and blithely accept the deception of Muslim operatives convincing us that they are here to bestow peace and goodwill , pretending that Muslims from third world Islamic nations will assimilate, Americanize and westernize.  We continue to self-deceive.

Scenario Two:  “Gradual Dawning.”  This scenario involves a gradual dawning, over the next decade or so, upon our leaders and media that Islam is primarily a political ideology and not in our nation’s best interest, and that some Muslims who we consider “moderate” may have seditious purposes.  Awareness evolves slowly over a period of years, with immigration policies, political and academic appointments and other Muslim-enabling policies gradually changing.

Scenario Three:  “Abrupt Awakening.”  This scenario involves a more immediate collective realization that Islam is a fascist, seditious political ideology that must be dealt with in a manner similar to our actions toward the Japanese-Americans immediately following the bombing of Pearl Harbor.  However politically incorrect we believe that to be today was thought to be prudent to save our nation back then.  A cataclysmic event that is clearly the work of Muslims in the name of Islam would be the most likely catalyst.  Why 9-11 wasn’t that catalyst remains a mystery to me.

Likely Outcomes of the Three Scenarios

Now let’s take a look at each of these scenarios, speculating their impact on our nation, culture, and freedoms in five, ten, and twenty years hence.

Scenario One:  Denial of Reality of Islam.  In the short term, our leaders and media continue to pander to Muslim sensitivities and blame outbreaks of violence and acts of terror on everything BUT Islamic ideology.  We continue to support Muslim Middle East nations with our petro dollars.  Our colleges and universities continue to accept hundreds of millions 0f dollars from Islamic nations, e.g. Saudi Arabia and others, for Middle East Studies programs which in reality are Islamic indoctrination, training, and infiltration programs.  The media and churches continue to defend Islam as a religion of peace and become more aggressive in condemning those who speak the truth of Islam and its seditious, fascist ideology in a manner similar to the defamation of Joe McCarthy in the 50’s.  This condemnation is promoted by the massive infiltration of Islamic operatives and useful idiots (Imams, Muslim government appointees, and liberal non-Muslim apologists) already in place in government, media, and academic positions.

Over the next five to ten years there will be a gradual change in our legal system via new laws and court cases facilitating or incorporating Sharia (the set of barbaric Islamic laws prevalent in the Middle East).  These will occur first in areas of highest Muslim concentration such as Dearborn, MI, and Nashville, TN, and will extend to a dozen or more liberal states.  Opposition to these laws will be increasingly viewed as “intolerant” and hateful.  Islam will continue to be viewed as just another religion worthy of protection under the first amendment.  Christian Churches and liberal Synagogues will begin to incorporate elements of Islamic doctrine into their sermons and activities as an outreach to accommodate Muslim sensitivities.  Muslims and their liberal non-Muslim promoters will propose laws that prohibit expressing anything that is offensive about another religion.  Verbiage and enforcement will of course be skewed toward prosecution of those who speak the truth about Islam.  As in civil rights legislation, the minority Muslims will be given a pass, free to discriminate and speak against Jews and Christians, while majority Jews and Christians  are required to remain silent with regard to Islam.  There will be dozens of “no-go zones” throughout the nation where law enforcement will avoid either by pre-arrangement or fear.

Beyond 10 to 20 years, due to continuing lax immigration and border security policies and an especially high Muslim birth rate, Muslim populations will reach critical mass in dozens of urban centers of the nation (critical mass being 20% or more of the populations of congressional districts, for example; this is already exceeded in several parts of the country) where they will become a significant political force.  Just as significant, such concentrations will become a potent physical and psychological intimidation force.  Opposition will be silenced through increases in violence and acts of terror, demonstrations, and legal intimidation.  Free speech will have dire consequences and will become a relic of the past.  Civil unrest and confrontation will begin to be initiated by both sides throughout the nation.

The United States will be a reflection of today’s London, Belgium, Sweden, and France in terms of Muslim populations and influence.  See HERE and HERE for consequences of unchecked failures to assimilate third world and Muslim immigrants.  And the media inexplicably ignore the cause and effect.  Violent Muslim ideology will spread rapidly among ignorant non-Muslim third world immigrants.  The trend will be irreversible short of violent upheaval and drastic measures that today are unthinkable.

Scenario Two: “Gradual Dawning.” 

This is the path that may result from the truth gradually getting through to government officials and the media from such expert informed sources as Robert Spencer, Tom Trento, Eric Stakelbeck, Andrew Bostom, Bat Ye’or, Andrew McCarthy and others.  This scenario will merely slow the process noted in Scenario One. 

As officials and the populace increase their awareness, congressional hearings will be called that span years.  Expert witnesses from both sides will be called and testify, provoking Muslims to the streets as hypersensitivities are triggered.  All the while illegal immigration may be slowed but will continue.  The dawn of truth brightens slowly – the gears of government grind even slower.  It may take decades to expunge ill-intentioned Muslims from academia, the media, the military, and government, if it occurs at all.

The degree to which Scenario One is reversible through the “gradual dawning” process depends on the speed of realization of the problem, the sense of urgency promoted by that realization, and our resolve against the likely mean spirited and violent pushback inevitable from the several million Muslims and their liberal sympathizers in the US who’s seditious plans are felt to be threatened.  And this doesn’t include the increase in extreme “workplace violence” that is likely to occur against our embassies and other interests overseas.

Scenario Three: “Abrupt Awakening.”

“Abrupt Awakening” is the “best case”, most fearsome, and least likely of the three scenarios. 

It is the best case because it involves the truth being known, understood, and acted upon relatively quickly by our leaders, the media and our general population.   This scenario puts an end to our self-deception and lies about Islam, and ultimately protects our nation against transformation into a barbaric third world fascist state.  It takes intolerance of evil to protect the tolerance of good.

This scenario is fearsome because it is most likely triggered by a violent event that overshadows 9-11 many times over.  It is fearsome because it will provoke an increase in violence by domestic Islamic terrorists as well as overseas terror attacks. 

This scenarios is the least likely because it will require testing our freedoms by distinguishing between a so-called “religion”, Islam, and a seditious, supremacist, violent, fascist political ideology, Islam.  This scenario comes down on the side of admitting that Islam is a seditious, supremacist, violent, fascist political ideology and taking steps necessary to minimize its damage to our nation.  It recognizes that our nation has been infiltrated by those who are actively involved in transforming us beyond the “hope and change” sought by our Islam-inspired president.

The “abrupt awakening” will see immediate expulsion of thousands (not all) Muslims who we will come to realize were teaching, training, funding, and motivating seditious or terror acts against our nation.   It will involve holding thousands of others in secure locations until we can agree what to do with them after we achieve a realistic understanding of what we are up against and feel more secure.  Rioting against authority will break out within dozens of Muslim enclaves around the nation.  National Guard and regular military will be called upon to defend our cities and suburbs against the backlash that is sure to ensue.  These events will overshadow the domestic military involvement that was required during the civil unrest of the late 60’s.

These actions will be condemned by both liberals and libertarians as excessive government force and control.  Many will take the side of the Islamic terrorists.  Obama is one.  As Obama said, and I paraphrase, but this is the essence of what he said, “when the SHTF I will come down on the side of the Muslim immigrants”, as will many other ignorant liberals.

Again, this is the least likely scenario.  Given the momentum of public thinking today, the effective deceptive practices of Muslim promoters and the infiltration and ignorance of our leadership and churches, Scenario One, the Faux Assimilation of Muslims, is the most likely course of this nation.

Scandal and oppressive government: What happens when a society loses its moral compass...

Benghazi-gate, IRS-intimid-gate, and pandering to a hostile ideology (Islam) for profit and power are just some of the current federal scandals.  Yes, the Obama administration does finally appear to be unravelling - but don't hold your breath.

Anyone who is following the moral decline of this nation cannot help but conclude that simply exposing scandals will not correct or prevent them.  In fact I have no doubt that while the news cycle and public awareness are focused on these events, there are another dozen equal or worse scandals in the works.  Unfortunately, the "see no Islam" in Islamic terror attacks and violent jihad in mainstream Islamic ideology remain an undiagnosed cancer in our federal goverment and most media.

Why is this happening now?   Yes, we are a self-absorbed society. The time the average American spends in front of the TV watching mind numbing programming, mostly immoral trash, the time spent absorbed in sports or devoted to trivial social networking leaves little time for for mind-building, community-building, or knowing when yor government and elected officials are screwing you over with with scandal and deception.

While we all can share some responsibility in reaching this dismal state, I lay much of the blame on the "feel good" churches of our nation.  When most churches value self-esteem over abstaining from sin, or even acknowleding that there ia such a thing as sin anymore, it is no surprise we get what we got:  An amoral society that believes tolerance of everything BUT morality is the highest value.

From the time I first became a Christian I was suspucious of the "once saved, always saved" belief held by so many conservative Christians.  This so easily leads to a self-serving presumtuousness that too easily excuses repetitive sinning:  The freedom to sin without consequence.  And then there is the liberal version of salvation - universalism - where God is so sweet and sugary and loving that no one will really be punished for anything.  All will be saved and go to heaven because Christ paid it all.

And then we have the Catholics whose doctrine proclaims that ignorance of sin gives a free pass to heaven.  This is moral relativism at it's most aggregious.  And this one is REALLY special:  Since Muslims worship the same God (this is an exceedingly ill-informed undwrstanding of Islam), then Muslims are first in line among all who are ignorant of Christ to be saved.  Yes, this is Catholic doctrine.  Google "Gentium Lumen, Section 16" and read it.

So, is it any wonder why we are in such moral decline in this nation?  The one institution , our churches, and the one group of leaders, our pastors and priests, are out to lunch.  And those few who are in major denominations who know better and wish to speak up are suppressed by their liberal denominations.  There are a very few independent pastors who are a voice crying in the wilderness.  For these I praise God.

Hillary, the cover-up bitch…

These words still echo:

"Was it because of a protest or was it because of guys out for a walk one night and decided they’d go kill some Americans," Clinton said. "What difference – at this point, what difference does it make?"

So, that’s what the choices boil down to, Hill?  Islamists “out for a walk” or “decided they’d go kill some Americans…”  How long will it be before ignorant sons of bitches like you acknowledge the truth about Islam and the ignorant rabble that follow that fascist ideology to a “T.”  How many American deaths will it take before your Muslim-pandering cronies (both Republican and Democrat) admit the truth about the motives of your good Islamist buddies?

What difference does it make?  Well, this for starters.  Despite your WORTHLESS declaration that “…it is our job to figure out what happened and do everything we can to prevent it from ever happening again, Senator…” you will NEVER figure it out as long as you insist on denying and covering up the truth.  You, Hillary, along with your peach of a husband, have glaring character flaws.  Lying is one of them.  Two freakin’ peas in a pod.

The truth DOES make a difference – which up to now, is missing from your lying, deceitful lips.  What difference does it make?  Without the truth, the problem will escape notice.   In addition to YOU being part of the problem, the problem is identifying our friends and distinguishing them from our enemies.   Your insistence on denying who the enemy is will only invite further murders at the hands of an arch enemy that you and other Pollyanish fools continue to declare is not Islam.  Is the oil money so important to you that you are willing to sacrifice American lives and the nation itself?

The disrespect I have for you, Hill, rivals that which I maintain toward any other mass murderer.

Lord, may the whole truth come out at these hearings and the proper justice be served.

 

Obama: “This is hard stuff”. Yes, denying reality can be hard.

Denying reality IS hard stuff.  It often makes people into psychopaths.    Obama may become one if he is not one already.

My new favorite commentator, Diana West, provides an excellent summation of the “see no Islam” mentality of the Obama, Islam-promoting administration.

Here it is:

Making Islam (not Terrorism) Disappear

The see-no-Islam FBI: On the case against "violent extremism."

This week's syndicated column:

We have met the enemy and he is “self-radicalization.” No, wait: We have met the enemy and he is the Internet. We have met the enemy and he is broadband video?

“But this is hard stuff,” President Obama tried to explain in this week’s press conference. “Because of the pressure that we put on al-Qaida’s core, because of the pressure that we’ve put on these networks that are well-financed and more sophisticated and can engage in and project transnational threats against the United States, one of the dangers that we now face are self-radicalized individuals who are already here in the United States – in some cases, may not be part of any kind of network, but because of whatever warped, twisted ideas they may have, may decide to carry out an attack. And those are in some ways more difficult to prevent.”

More difficult to prevent? Ridiculous. But this is also a disgraceful thing to say under these circumstances. What Obama describes is the Keystone-Cops-case because he decided, as a matter of “Muslim outreach,” to shut his eyes to the motivation of such attacks – Islam, jihad, Allah’s law (Shariah) – and ordered our security agencies and military to shut their eyes, too.

It is a fact that in concert with the Oct. 19, 2011, demands of an array of Islamic advocacy groups, including government-identified Muslim Brotherhood front groups (the Council on American-Islamic Relations and the Islamic Society of North America, for example), the Obama administration subsequently ordered the “purge” of any training materials and trainers still teaching the history and doctrine of jihad at government security agencies and throughout the military. This unconscionable act of eliminating our first line of defense – in effect, shutting down national security’s eyes and ears, and, worse, logic itself – is what accounts for the successful cycle of jihad that marks our era of decline. To be fair, it is not all Obama’s fault. The current administration’s see-no-Islam policy is an extension and amplification of the see-no-Islam policy initiated by President George W. Bush.

When a handful of House Republicans led by Michele Bachmann of Minnesota last summer raised the see-no-Islam “purge” and related issues with justified alarm, these remnant patriots in Congress were crucified as “Islamophobes” and scorned as lunatics. And now? No one in that Bachmann lynch mob (Obama administration, media and, profiles in courage, GOP leadership) wants us to put things together now. They don’t want us to realize that those two vicious bombs that exploded in Boston last month might well have been prevented had Bachmann & Co.’s warnings been heeded.

How? On government order, the FBI doesn’t know – can’t know – that it is actually fighting Islamic jihad and Shariah subversion. The kind of review Bachmann hoped for could possibly have saved fact-based analysis at the FBI and related agencies. To grasp the stupefying impact of the see-no-Islam status quo, imagine the FBI of the Cold War era officially denying and suppressing the role Marxism played in animating subversives. No communist espionage rings would ever have been stopped.

Such blindness is the official rule today. An examination of the FBI’s Counterterrorism Analytical Lexicon, which was published in 2008 at the end of the Bush administration, shows that the words “Islam,” “Muslim,” “jihad,” “Muslim Brotherhood,” even “al-Qaida” – all of which appear in the 9/11 Commission Report – have disappeared entirely from the lexicon of FBI analysis. Instead, agents must focus on the literally meaningless concept of “violent extremism.” As if that’s not mentally paralyzing enough, the FBI definition of violent extremism includes this: “An analytical judgment that an individual is a ‘violent extremist,’ ‘extremist,’ or ‘radical’ is not predication for any investigative action or technique.”

Another way to view such a security shambles is to say, as the president did, that the FBI performed well in the run-up to Boston 4/15. “The FBI investigated that older brother,” he said. “It’s not as if the FBI did nothing. They not only investigated the older brother, they interviewed the older brother. They concluded that there were no signs that he was engaging in extremist activity.”

This makes perfect sense – in the government’s see-no-Islam world. FBI agents, operating by the book, might well have tagged Tamerlan Tsarnaev a “violent extremist,” and then, also operating by the book, done nothing. Ka-boom. Having de-Islamized counterterrorism techniques, Obama could then say: “Based on what I’ve seen so far, the FBI performed its duties, the Department of Homeland Security did what it was supposed to be doing.”

According to U.S. government’s see-no-Islam policy, Obama is correct. In fact, for meritorious achievement leading up to the Boston bombing, special commendations for all U.S. security personnel up to and including Cabinet secretaries from Justice, Homeland Security and the Pentagon are in order. The Obama team effort may not have stopped terrorism, but it sure made Islam disappear.

Mormons are one with Obama in praising Islam…

If you were wondering why Mitt Romney believes that Jihad is no part of Islam and why his foreign policy positions regarding the Middle East were virtually identical to Obama’s, look no further than the beliefs of scholars within the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints – Mormons.

I searched the term “Islam” in one of the official LDS websites called The Mormon Channel.  Up popped a presentation called “Understanding Islam.”  The presentation is given by Dr. Daniel Peterson, Professor of Islamic Studies and Arabic at Brigham Young University.  HERE it is.

As I listened to the interview my jaw dropped.  Here is some of the ignorant misleading, disingenuous, Islam-apologist academic tripe provided by this Mormon professor:

• General gushing over the life of Muhammad and the Islamic “religion”, generally.
• Total silence on Muhammad’s conquests, immorality, and the continuing supremacism. and terror promoted by Islam throughout history and today.
• Emphasis that Islam is a respectable sister religion to Christianity.
• Fascination that Islam has many similarities to Mormonism with regard to its new revelation, post Biblical “sacred” scripture, and a prophet, Muhammad, similar to the Mormon prophet, Joseph Smith.  “Echos of the Joseph Smith story…like Judaism and Christianity before.”
• Claim that Muslims and Christians worship the same God.  He believes that Muslims merely apply the word differently.  He ignores the Islamic distinctions in the characteristics of their “Allah.”  He reminded us that the book of Mormon uses the word Allah throughout.  He obfuscates the distinction of Islam’s use of the word “Allah” vs. the use of the word by Middle East Christians.

This blindness to the evil of Islam and equating that ideology to many of the characteristics of Mormonism is an adequate reason for me to question the legitimacy of the Mormon faith and the honesty of their leadership in addressing the Islamic problem.
