The Ugly Reality of Islam

Islam is violent.  Otherwise there would be no problem.  

Harry Potter Actress Beaten and Branded a Prostitute by Her Family After Dating a Non-Muslim

I am told time and again that Islam is peaceful and those who are using it to justify any violence other than self-defense are violating the Koran. Yet the linked story is all too common. The violence of "honor killings"--how can any murder be honorable?--is all too common as is the terrorism against Muslims and non-Muslims alike. So how can a religion that continues to allow, and even give tacit approval to such actions, be termed "peaceful?" How can any religion that allows itself to justify slavery of non-adherents to that religion as is documented in Sudan be called just?

The answer is, of course: It can't. There are Muslims who are peaceful but they are clearly afraid to stand-up and shout in the face of the unthinking violence of their religious brethren. Which gives rise to another question: If, as we are told by the intelligentsia, those who are violent are only 10% of the 1 billion+ Muslims in the world, why are the overwhelming majority afraid to make that minority which espouses violence outcasts? That would surely happen in the Christian world so why not in the Muslim umma? The question is, on retrospect, almost rhetorical. While some, note only "some," of the alleged 90% are truly peaceful and willing to let others worship as they wish, the rest are secretly pleased that "their side" is advancing even if they don't necessarily agree with the violence. In other words, they don't directly approve of it, but they won't stop it.

A case in point is the recent case in Baltimore, Maryland, where an FBI sting operation resulted in the arrest of a young jihadi who wished to blow-up a military recruiting center. The jihadi tried to enlist the cooperation of 3 of his Muslim friends and only one of the friends tried to talk him out of it. When he approached the 4th friend that American went to the FBI and the budding terrorist was caught before he could fulfill his jihad. Think about it for a second. Only 1 of 4 American Muslims did what is expected of any American citizen.

The linked report is no less egregious. An internationally known actress who would appear to be from a upscale and modern thinking Muslim family in England (because, after all, they did let her appear in an internationally known and viewed movie about witches and wizards) is in fear for her life for the apparently unforgivable sin of dating a non-Muslim. There is an evil, it seems, in the hearts of her family and she is now in hiding because of a beating by her father and death threats that involve both the father and the brother. She is in hiding because her father is now demanding that she enter into a marriage he arranged with a Muslim. She is in hiding because our British cousins find themselves totally hobbled by political correctness run amuck and are unable to protect her should she appear to give evidence against her father and brother. It is then, an unfortunate case where both Islam and Christianity have failed the young lady. Islam because it allows such barbarity that could not exist without a nod and a wink from the religious hierarchy; and, Christianity because it has turned a blind eye out of a desire to be inclusive of all thus ignores the problem and does not take stern action--at least in England.

America, I'm afraid, is no less guilty as there have been honor killings here. Two young Muslim girls were allegedly murdered by their father in Texas for "being too westernized" as was a young girl in Arizona for the same inane reason. And another Muslim man in upstate New York allegedly killed and decapitated his wife over "honor" because she wanted a divorce.

Is it any wonder that Americans are uncomfortable with Islam? This is clearly represented by the efforts of some states to forbid the use of shari'ah law in their own courts and the strident opposition to the Ground Zero Mosque in lower Manhattan. The ball is in the umma's court. Islam can only be changed from within and that will only happen if the umma can subdue the barbarians who are in control.

Analyze This, Sigmund: Your Great-Granddaughter Digs Child Sacrifice

Great Britain seems to be on a child-bashing roll! At least the Eco-idiot parts of it as shown in this advertisement for a group that calls itself "10:10." The group promotes the idea that each person much reduce carbon emissions by 10% immediately or they are dooming the entire planet.

U.K. Independent Columnist Tells BBC Suffering Children Should Be Smothered | NewsBusters.org

Abortion:  It's not just for necessity anymore.  And the children in Ironside's view shouldn't be safe even if they are born.

U.K. Independent Columnist Tells BBC Suffering Children Should Be Smothered | NewsBusters.org

If you haven't seen this interview you're in for a shock. Virginia Ironside is a columnist for the UK Independent newspaper. She is what we would call in the U.S. a "very progressive Liberal" and most assuredly would be supporting Obamacare and the Obama Regime. (If she were an American she would almost certainly be one of Obama's Czars given her political views.) She is also a proponent of infanticide. And proud of it.

It is clear that the two interviewers are shocked by the statements made by Ironsides but no less shocked that I was. How this woman can be sitting in an office and writing for a newspaper instead of in an asylum for the criminally insane is a mystery...but then again, she does live in Great Britain. (Hey!  I like England but this is way too much!)  Certainly her world view is little different from Joseph Goebbels, Stalin, Chairman Mao or Pol Pot. Human life other than her own has little value to her most especially if it is under two years of age.

White House Backed Release of Lockerbie Bomber Abdel Baset al-Megrahi

There are lies and then there are lies.  It is unfortunate that the current occupant of the White House has so amply demonstrated that he cannot be trusted to tell the We the People the truth.  This is just another of a long list of lies emanating from Barack Obama.

It is not surprising that we are finding this out not from our own Left Stream Media that touts itself as the best in the world but from foreign media that is not attempting to advance a Neo-Lib Democrat agenda.  This should be the lead story on every evening news broadcast for the next few weeks until all the relative information as to what the President knew and when he knew it is revealed.

My bet is that it will be buried by the liberal news cabal with barely a passing mention.

Parents' Fury as 'Healthy' Classmates (aged 5 and 6) are Branded Overweight by NHS Health Police

This is something you should read if only because this is the pattern that the United States will follow in 2014 when the BMI (Body Mass Indicator) for each of us will be uploaded to Federal Government computers to be used initially as a way to identify those who are obese and, a short while later, as a measure of cost effectiveness for determining what medical care we will receive.  It's important that you go to the linked article and see the pictures of the two children who were branded as "overweight" using the government BMI.

Now, I will admit to some corpulence on my part.  I was very active when I was young and lifted weights and as I grew older I ate the same but became more sedentary.  That's my excuse and I'm sticking to it.  However my 4 year old daughter is anything but obese, but using the government's BMI there is no doubt that she will show up as "overweight" because at age 4 she is as tall as most 7 year olds and wears size 7 Levis.  We talked about her size at the last yearly check-up and her doctor looked at her and said, "There is nothing wrong with her weight.  It's perfectly proportional with her height and not a concern."  The doctor's opinion, of course, did not take the government's figures into consideration and, as in the British system, a bureaucrat shall be interposed between the patient and doctor.  That will lead to the exact same bureaucratic idiocy that our British cousins now face.  The linked article clearly shows the folly of putting unnamed government bureaucrats in between a patient and his or her doctor.  England has done it and clearly it doesn't work.  So why is Obama so absolutely in favor of instituting government control of health care?  Very simple:  It's a great way to control people.

In November, when you go to the polls, remember the lies told by the Neo-Lib Democrats when they forced Obamacare down our throats.  Then vote them out of office.

Rolling Back the Socialist Tide

History...those who do not study it are doomed to repeat it.  Unfortunately, Saul Alinsky failed to include a chapter on history in his writings thus Barack Obama's understanding of history is mostly apocryphal being based on Marxist interpretations of history gaged not to present facts but to further socialist goals.

Pity.

Maybe if he had really studied history he wouldn't have insultingly sent Churchill's bust back to the British.

Yes, Mr. President.  I've been drinking and am smoking a cigar.  But tomorrow I shall be sober and you shall still be an idiot.
