Will our leftist sheople think the content below is "hate" or some other emotion based unprovable aspersion? What do YOU think.
Join us to speak your mind
The following essay is attributed to be a portion of a personal letter written by a retired attorney to his sons in May, '04.
I sincerely hope you see the writing on the wall that I see.
Muslim terrorists and the U.S.A. :
A different spin on the war in Iraq: This WAR is REAL
To get out of a difficulty, one usually must go through it. Our
country is now facing the most serious threat to its existence, as
we know it, that we have faced in your lifetime and mine (which
includes WWII). The deadly seriousness is greatly compounded by the
fact that there are very few of us who think we can possibly lose this
war and even fewer who realize what losing really means.
First, let's examine a few basics:
1) When did the threat to us start?
Many will say September 11, 2001. The answer, as far as the United
States is concerned, is 1979, 22 years prior to September 2001, with
the following attacks on us:
* Iran Embassy Hostages, 1979;
* Beirut , Lebanon Embassy 1983;
* Beirut, Lebanon Marine Barracks 1983;
* Lockerbie , Scotland Pan-Am flight to New York 1988;
* First New York World Trade Center attack 1993;
* Dhahran , Saudi Arabia Khobar Towers Military complex 1996;
* Nairobi , Kenya US Embassy 1998;
* Dares Salaam , Tanzania US Embassy 1998;
* Aden , Yemen USS Cole 2000;
* New York World Trade Center 2001;
* Pentagon 2001.
(Note: during the period from 1981 to 2001
there were 7,581terrorist attacks worldwide.)
2) Why were we attacked?
Envy of our position, our success, and our freedoms. The attacks
happened during the administrations of Presidents Carter, Reagan, Bush
1, Clinton and Bush 2. We cannot fault either the Republicans
or Democrats, as there were no provocations by any of the presidents or
their immediate predecessor, President Ford.
3) Who were the attackers?
In each case, the attacks on the US were carried out by Muslims.
4) What is the Muslim population of the World?
25%.
5) Isn't the Muslim Religion peaceful?
Hopefully, but that is really not material. There is no doubt that the
predominately Christian population of Germany was peaceful, but under
the dictatorial leadership of Hitler, that made no difference. You
either went along with the administration or you were eliminated. There
were 5 to 6 million Christians killed by the Nazis for political
reasons (including 7,000 Polish priests).
(see
http://www.Nazis.testimony.co.uk/7-a.htm
Thus, almost the same number of Christians were killed by the Nazis as
the six million holocaust Jews who were killed by them, and we seldom
hear of anything other than the Jewish atrocities. Although Hitler kept
the world focused on the Jews, he had no hesitancy in killing
anyone who got in the way of his extermination of the Jews or of taking
over the world - German, Christian, or any others. Same with the Muslim
terrorists. They focus the world on the US , but kill all in the way --
their own people or the Spanish, British, French or anyone else. The
point here is that, just like the peaceful Germans were of no
protection to anyone from the Nazis, no matter how many peaceful
Muslims there may be, they are no protection for us from the terrorist
Muslim leaders and what they are fanatically bent on doing -- by their
own pronouncements -- killing all of us 'infidels.' I don't blame the
peaceful Muslims. What would you do if the choice was to remain silent
or be killed?
6) So who are we at war with?
There is no way we can honestly respond that it is anyone other than
the Muslim terrorists. Trying to be politically correct and avoid
verbalizing this conclusion can well be fatal. There is no way to
win if you don't clearly recognize and articulate who you are fighting.
So with that background, now to the two major
questions:
1) Can we lose this war?
2) What does losing really mean?
these two pivotal questions:
We can definitely lose this war and, as anomalous as it may sound, the
major reason we can lose is that so many of us simply do not fathom the
answer to the second question - What does losing mean? It would appear
that a great many of us think that losing the war means hanging our
heads, bringing the troops home, and going on about our business, like
post-Vietnam. This is as far from the truth as one can get. What losing
really means is:
We would no longer be the premier country in the world. The attacks
will not subside, but, rather, will steadily increase. Remember, they
want us dead, not just quiet. If they had just wanted us quiet,
they would not have produced an increasing series of attacks against us
over the past 18 years. The plan was, clearly, for terrorists to attack
us until we are all dead.
We would, of course, have no future support from other nations, for
fear of reprisals and for the reason that they would see; we are
impotent and cannot help them.. They will pick off the other
non-Muslim nations, one at a time. It will be increasingly easier for
them. They already hold Spain hostage. It doesn't matter whether it was
right or wrong for Spain to withdraw its troops from Iraq . Spain did
it because the Muslim terrorists bombed their train and told them to
withdraw the troops. Anything else they want Spain to do will be done.
Spain is finished.
The next will probably be France . Our one hope with France is that
they might see the light and realize that if we don't win, they
are finished, too, in that they can't resist the Muslim terrorists
without us. However, it may already be too late for France . France
is already 20% Muslim and fading fast. Without our support, Great
Britain will go, also.
Recently, I read that there are more mosques in England than
churches. If we lose the war, our production, income, exports, and
way of life will all vanish as we know it. After losing, who would
trade or deal with us if they were threatened by the Muslims? If
we can't stop the Muslim terrorists, how could anyone else?
The radical Muslims fully know what is riding on this war,
and therefore are completely committed to winning, at any cost. We'd
better know it, too, and be likewise committed to winning at any cost.
Why do I go on at such lengths about the results of
losing? Simple. Until we recognize the costs of losing, we cannot unite
and really put 100% of our thoughts and efforts into winning. And it
will take that 100% effort to win.
So, how can we lose the war?
Again, the answer is simple. We can lose the war by 'imploding.' That
is, defeating ourselves by refusing to recognize the enemy and their
purpose and failing to dig in and lend full support to the war effort.
If we are united, there is no way that we can lose. If we continue to
be divided, there is no way that we can win. Let me give you a few
examples of how we simply don't comprehend the life and death
seriousness of this situation:
President Bush selects Norman Mineta as Secretary of Transportation.
Although all of the terrorist attacks were committed by Muslim men
between 17 and 40 years of age, Secretary Mineta refuses to
allow profiling. Does that sound like we are taking this thing
seriously? This is war! For the duration, we are going to have to give
up some of the civil rights to which we have become accustomed. We had
better be prepared to lose some of our civil rights temporarily or we
will most certainly lose all of them permanently. And don't worry that
it is a slippery slope. We gave up plenty of civil rights during WWII,
and immediately restored them after the victory ... and, in fact, added
many more since that time. Do I blame President Bush or President
Clinton before him?
No, I blame us for blithely assuming we can maintain all of this
political correctness during this conflict and have a clean, lawful,
honorable war. None of those words apply to war. Get them out of your
head.
Some have gone so far in their criticism of the war and/or
the Administration that it almost seems they would literally like to
see us lose. I think some actually do. I hasten to add that this isn't
because they are disloyal. It is because they just don't recognize
what losing means. Nevertheless, that conduct gives the impression to
the enemy that we are divided and weakening. It concerns our
friends and it does great damage to our cause.
Of more recent vintage, the uproar fueled by the politicians and
media regarding the treatment of some prisoners of war perhaps
exemplifies best what I am saying. We have recently had an issue
involving the treatment of a few Muslim prisoners of war, by a
small group of our military police.. These are the type prisoners who
just a few months ago were throwing their own people off buildings,
cutting off their hands, cutting out their tongues, and otherwise
murdering their own just for disagreeing with Saddam Hussein. And, just
a few years ago, these same type prisoners chemically killed 400,000 of
their own people for the same reason. They are also the same type of
enemy fighters who recently were burning Americans and dragging their
charred corpses through the streets of Iraq. And, still more recently,
the same type of enemy that was and is providing videos to all news
sources internationally of the beheading of American prisoners
they held.
Compare this with some of our press and politicians, who for several
days have thought and talked about nothing else but the 'humiliating'
of some Muslim prisoners -- not burning them, not dragging their
charred corpses through the streets, not beheading them,
but 'humiliating' them. Can they be for real?
The politicians and pundits have even talked of impeachment of the
Secretary of Defense. If this doesn't show the complete lack
of comprehension and understanding of the seriousness of the enemy we
are fighting, the life and death struggle we are in, and the disastrous
results of losing this war, nothing can.
To bring our country to a virtual political standstill over this
prisoner issue makes us look like Nero playing his fiddle as
Rome burned -- totally oblivious to what is going on in the real world.
Neither we, nor any other country, can survive this internal strife.
Again, I say, this does not mean that some of our politicians or media
people are disloyal. It simply means that they are absolutely oblivious
to the magnitude of the situation we are in and into which the Muslim
terrorists have been pushing us for many years.
These people are a serious and dangerous liability to the war effort.
We must take note of who they are and get them out of office.
Remember, the Muslim terrorists stated goal is to kill
all infidels. That translates into ALL non-Muslims -- not just in the
United States , but throughout the world. We are the last bastion of
defense. We have been criticized for many years as being
'arrogant.' That charge is valid. We are arrogant in that we believe
that we are so good, powerful, and smart that we can win the hearts
and minds of all those who attack us, and that, with both hands tied
behind our back, we can defeat anything bad in the world. We can't!
If we don't recognize this, our nation, as we know it, will not
survive, and no other free country in the world will survive if we
are defeated.
And, finally, name any Muslim countries throughout the world that
allow freedom of speech, freedom of thought, freedom of religion,
freedom of the press, equal rights for anyone -- let alone everyone,
equal status or any status for women, or that have been productive in
one single way that contributes to the good of the world.
This has been a long way of saying that we must be united on this war
or we will be equated in the history books to the self- inflicted fall
of the Roman Empire . If, that is, the Muslim leaders will
allow history books to be written or read.
If we don't win this war right now, keep a close eye on how the
Muslims take over France in the next 5 years or less. They
will continue to increase the Muslim population of France and continue
to encroach, little by little, on the established French traditions.
The French will be fighting among themselves over what should or
should not be done, which will continue to weaken them and keep them
from any united resolve. Doesn't that sound eerily familiar?
Democracies don't have their freedoms taken away from them by some
external military force. Instead, they give their freedoms
away, politically correct piece by politically correct piece. And they
are giving those freedoms away to those who have shown, worldwide, that
they abhor freedom and will not apply it to you or even to themselves,
once they are in power. Muslims have universally shown that when
they have taken over, they then start brutally killing each other over
who the few will be controlling the masses.
What is happening in Iraq is a good example. Will we ever stop hearing
from the politically correct about the 'peaceful Muslims?'
I close on a hopeful note by repeating what I said before: If we
are united, there is no way that we can lose. I hope now, after
the election, the factions in our country will begin to focus on the
critical situation we are in, and will unite to save our country.
It is your future we are talking about. Do whatever you can to preserve it.
I reiterate: our national election is under way.
After reading the above, we all must do this, not only for
our country, but for the world. Whether Democrat or Republican,
conservative or liberal ... and that includes the Politicians and media
of our country and the free world.
Please forward this to any you feel may want, or NEED to read it.
Our 'leaders' in Congress ought to read it, too. There are those who
find fault with our country, but it is obvious to anyone who truly
thinks through this, that we must UNITE!
Lastly, I wish to add: at the risk of offending, I sincerely think that
anyone who rejects this as just another political rant, or doubts the
seriousness of this issue, or just deletes it without sending it on,
is part of the problem. Let's quit laughing at and forwarding the jokes
and cartoons which denigrate and ridicule our leaders in this war
against terror. They are trying to protect the interests and well being
of the US and it's citizens. Best we support them.
GOD BLESS AMERICA
