Muslims Learn Murder from Schools as Toddlers

It is easier to cry anti-Semitism than to deal with facts in the ground. Nuclear bombs have been reduced to the size of an ordinary suitcase. Several nuclear nations have the technology to retail such devices at $20,000,000 no questions asked. The presence of these devices in Washington could affect Foreign Policy.
Extremist Muslim threats to use them have a great deal of credibility.

Nuclear Dangers from a Muslim Up-Bringing

It is impossible in our post-9/11 world to be a leader and not know what Islam means, or at very least know the hell being wreaked upon the free and not-so-free world by the warriors of Islamic jihad. And Obama has already told us which side he will be on when the lines are fully drawn: “In the wake of 9/11,” he wrote in The Audacity of Hope, “my meetings with Arab and Pakistani Americans, for example, have a more urgent quality, for the stories of detentions and FBI questioning and hard stares from neighbors have shaken their sense of security and belonging. They have been reminded that the history of immigration in this country has a dark underbelly; they need specific reassurances that their citizenship really means something, that America has learned the right lessons from the Japanese internments during World War II, and that I will stand with them should the political winds shift in an ugly direction.”[i]

In the first year of his presidency, he showed in numerous ways that he would indeed stand with them.

It must also be noted that Islamic anti-Semitism is part of the Koranic imperative. The pervasive influence of Islamic Jew-hatred cannot be ignored when assessing the impact of Barack Obama’s early life experiences upon the later trajectory of his career. If a devout Muslim prayers the obligatory five daily prayers, he will repeat the Shehadah, the first chapter of the Koran, seventeen times; that chapter concludes with prayers that Muslims generally understand as asking Allah not to make the believer like the Jews (“those who have earned Allah’s anger”) or the Christians (“those who have gone astray”). The prayers generally conclude with the dua qunoot, a prayer that Allah’s wrath would overtake infidels.

Imagine the influence that all this – inculcating contempt for Jews and Christians seventeen times a day – might have on a young mind and a future president. Troubling psychological wiring might have been set in place for a lifetime.

Comment: Many murders occur when the killer has a paranoid mind-set. He imagines the other person intends to kill him. Muslim propaganda utilizes this factor every day. They portray the west as out to destroy them. Thus, they are guiltless if they strike preemptively.

Do We Want an Anti-Semite in the White House?

I call out every American Jew who voted for this racist. I call out every Jew who has stood by and deluded himself that Obama would not hurt the tiny Jewish state. I call out every Jew who thinks that he is safe here in the former land of the free and home of the repressed, oppressed brave. I call out every Jew who gave money to the increasingly radical anti-semitic political party, the Democrats.

Work those phones. You owe it to your children. You owe it to your people. You owe it to the six million dead.

Contact your Congressman;

Geert Wilders: "Palestine is Jordan"


Here's another reason why Israelis should support Geert Wilders: He's on our side. This is from a Google translation of a Dutch newspaper article.

"Judea and Samaria are Israel Jewish settlements there so the more the better," twittered the politician on Saturday.

Wilders is known as a friend of Israel and has in the eighties, a period spent on a kibbutz.

...

Commenting on his tweet Wilders let him know that nothing interests''that''its position is contrary to the Dutch foreign policy.

The PVV''will never support a Palestinian state, except for Jordan.''This country, he said, actually all the Palestinian state. ''Jordan is Palestine.'

Wilders was responding to comments made earlier by United Nations special rapporteur Richard Falk.

Dwight Eisenhower's Wisdom for the Middle East

Dwight Eisenhower, when he was running for re-election in 1956 and simultaneously trying to contain growing instability in the Middle East as a result of tensions between Israel and its neighbors, wrote a letter to an adviser as follows:

Of course, nothing in the region would be so difficult to solve except for the underlying cause of the unrest and dissension that exists there -- that is, the Arab-Israel quarrel. This quarrel seems to have no limit in either intensity or in scope. Everybody in the Moslem and Jewish worlds is affected by it. It is so intense that the second any action is taken against one Arab state, by an outsider, all the other Arab and Moslem states seem to regard it as a Jewish plot and react violently. All this complicates the situation enormously.

“As we began to uncover evidence that something was building up in Israel, we demanded pledges from Ben-Gurion that he would keep the peace. We realized that he might think he could take advantage of this country because of the approaching election and because of the importance that so many politicians in the past have attached to our Jewish vote. I gave strict orders to the State Department that they should inform Israel that we would handle our affairs exactly as though we didn't have a Jew in America. The welfare and best interests of our own country were to be the sole criteria on which we operated.”

Touring is Not Foreign Policy Experience

Angry African, Global Voices

Finally, from South Africa via the United States, Angry African takes politicians to task for padding their resumes and claiming that visiting countries qualifies as foreign policy experience.
Dick Cheney has been to Iraq. Hillary has been all over the place. All escorted trips. Talking to people and seeing people that other people controlled. Not a moment of meeting the people in the streets. No. They met the people those in power wanted them to meet. Those “good little soldiers”. Those on the side of the winners or warlords or occupiers - not those who suffer in their homes without water or electricity or food or jobs. Or walls for that matter. Those have been bombed as well. So what you have are just very big windows as the Republicans would like you to believe. You see what they want you to see. And not what you should see. You don’t see the families caring for the wounded ones or crying for the lost ones.
McCain went to Iraq last week. Made a few “misspokes” by confusing a few issues. Wouldn’t you with Lieberman standing next to you? You just don’t know which way Lieberman might go - Independent today, Republican tomorrow, Democrat yesterday. Anyway - I digress. Again. So McCain went to the marketplace. Bought a few goods there I hope. You know. A bucket of water (just a few minor shrapnel holes in it). Some oil (imported from Saudi Arabia because you can’t find Iraqi oil). An AK47 (seen some action). But no food and no freedom fries. But why didn’t he go to the market he went to the last time? Because it wasn’t safe. Not even with those Blackwater guards, marines, armoured vehicles and helicopters. He hasn’t “been there”. He could only say “I haven’t been there”.

Really, if “I have been there” qualifies you as a foreign policy expert then every pilot on the Delta international route is Boutros Boutros-Ghali. And sorry my friend, you ain’t from Egypt or his world. I sometimes even doubt if you are even from this world. Even if you “have been there”. You still haven’t “been there” or “got it”.
So. Stop it please. Stop trying to sound all traveled and wise because you “have been there”. You haven’t. You haven’t even “been there” when it comes to the US. You can’t use a daft and brainless line just to justify and spin your stupid, warped and pathetic policies.

"War is a Racket" from General S.D. Butler

"War is a racket. . .

It may seem odd for me, a military man,
to adopt such a comparison.
Truthfulness compels me to.
I spent 33 years in active service as a member of our
country's most agile military force --the Marine Corps --
. . .
I helped make Mexico and especially Tampico
safe for American oil interests in 1914.
I helped make Haiti and Cuba a decent place
for the National City Bank boys to collect revenues in.
I helped in the raping of half a dozen Central
American republics for the benefit of Wall Street.
The record of racketeering is long.
I helped purify Nicaragua for the international
banking house of Brown Brothers in 1909-12.

I brought light to the Dominican Republic
for American sugar interests in 1916.
I helped make Honduras 'right'
for American fruit companies in 1903 . . .
"Looking back on it, I feel
I might have given Al Capone a few hints.
The best that he could do was to
operate his racket in three city districts.
We Marines operated on three continents".
S. D. Butler

"Butler understood the more honest function of the Marines (and U.S. foreign policy in general) was to forcefully maintain structures protecting the haves from the have-nots." { from www.VeteransForPeace.Org/military.htm}.
