Secret Support Gaining for Israel Attack Against Iran


John R. Houk
© July 17, 2009


I suspect Iran’s recent voting crisis coupled with a government crackdown on protesters reminiscent of former Shah Reza Pahlavi’s brutal repression has given Western nations and Arab nations another perspective on confronting Iran’s nuclear program. Even amidst Iranian government denials, it is obvious the Iranian nuclear program is functioning way beyond peaceful energy. The nuke program is in reality an armed nuclear proliferation program.

One indication of this new global perspective is the recent movement of Israeli naval vessels through the Suez Canal into the Red Sea. Yes the very Suez Canal managed by Arab-Islamic Egypt.

There is talk that Arab nations are willing to look the other way if Israel attacks Iran’s nuclear capabilities with a deal in mind. Apparently that deal is Israel becoming more amenable to the creation of a Palestinian State even in the face of Islamic terrorism which includes the belief that Israel should be destroyed.

If you have read any of my writing on the so-called Two-State Solution, you are aware my stand is radical to the politically correct industry. There is no historical basis for the creation of a Palestinian State for that provision in 1947 was to be invested in Transjordan which is today’s Jordan. If any expansion occurred by the Jewish State past the formation of its modern incarnation, that expansion was the result of winning wars of self-defense in the face of overwhelming odds. As far as I am concerned this does not mean an occupation, it means land as payment for the war debt of invading Arab armies.

But I passionately digress.

If this behind the geopolitical door deal ever goes beyond rumor, I think Israel should flow with it. Here is why: If Israel has Arab support for a controversial attack that has the potential of starting a Middle Eastern war that even may conflate to a global war, then the usual European Leftist animosity toward Israel will have to be reassessed.

Iran international black mail will have less affect limiting the Mullah-State to gamble that Russia and China will support Iranian military reprisals. The threat of American retribution via forces in Iraq and Afghanistan would not need an invasion force. Massive air and missile strikes to respond to an Iranian counter-attack could ruin the economy of an isolated Iran (U.N. valueless sanctions may gain some actual value).

Then there is the deal: Israel actively working to establish a sovereign Palestinian State. The reason I don’t have a problem with such a deal is my belief that the ruling elite of the Arabs calling themselves Palestinians are geopolitical morons in managing an actual sovereign nation. The Arab terrorists managing Hamastan (Gaza strip) and the West Bank have displayed an inability to manage the existing infrastructure without graft, murder and engaging Israel as a national State.

A sovereign Palestine would be responsible for its actions. Shooting missiles into Israel would be an act of war from one sovereign State to another. A sovereign Palestinian State could not hide behind Islamic terrorists fighting to end occupation. Regardless of the multiple Palestinian charters that imply a Palestine map encompassing land that nullifies the existence of Israel, the nation of Israel is a recognized State and a member of the United Nations.

Israel would be forced by an act of war to protect itself. The resolution would be to attack Palestine. I would hope that would mean the end of a Palestinian State. The reality is that the first act of defense would probably be a harsh message to the corrupt government of Palestine. That would be something like messing up a viable military infrastructure and/or totally cutting off economic support the world will expect Israel to donate as its part to create a Palestinian State.

The sovereign Palestinian State would face the choice of becoming the typical repressive Muslim regime dealing politically with Israel or continue to stick by their terrorist charters to challenge Israel. History shows that continued attacks could lead to the possession of more land that legitimately belongs to Israel anyway.

With these thoughts in mind I believe there is no better than the present to do the Arab Middle East and the West a huge favor; i.e. do as much damage to the Iranian nuclear program as possible.

Obama's Arabian dreams


Caroline Glick critiques President Barack Hussein Obama’s Cairo Speech. Her theme is that BHO is portrays Israel in an evil light and the Arabs that call themselves Palestinians as the moral equivalent of America’s Black slavery past.

As you read Glick keep this in the back of your mind. She points out that BHO Chief-of-Staff Rahm Emmanuel worked closely to discredit Prime Minister Netanyahu’s first stint as the Prime Minister of Israel while he was an advisor to President Clinton. She senses that Emmanuel is already at work to undermine Netanyahu by working Likud enemies in the Kadima Party and with Leftist American Jews. This implies using the Left propaganda machine to implant into Americans and Israelis that the “peace at all costs” mindset is the only way peace will come to the Middle East. This mindset of course is counter to Judeo-Christianity theologically and will politically quite possibly lead to the destruction of Israel.

Obama to deliver speech in Cairo, Egypt


Here is a plea from the Jerusalem Prayer Team to support Israel even if our President cuddles to the Islamic world. Cuddling to the Islamic world would of course mean Barack Hussein Obama is throwing Israel under the bus.

BHO’s appeasement policies will probably make possible a Middle East Muslim’s dream: the destruction of Israel and the Second Holocaust.

Join the Jerusalem Prayer Team by the millions to keep Israel alive and solvent for God Almighty to do His thing when BHO forces American Policy to abandon Jewish Israel in favor of Middle Eastern Muslims.

Read the following JPT request for support then read Mike Evans’ essay entitled, “President Vows Middle East Solution in Two Years”.

Your gift to help the Jewish people is needed even more today as the media reports on the demoralizing effects the downturn in the economy and the resulting recession has had in Israel. Within a two-month time period almost 40,000 Israelis have lost their jobs and an additional 300,000+ workers are slated to lose jobs soon. The result is that more than 1.6 million Israelis live below the poverty level. Some 800,000 of those suffering from the effects of poverty are children.

Oppose a Palestine State


John R. Houk
© June 1, 2009
[Blog Editor: Updating Some Dead Links because of the unfortunate demise of some great websites - October 9, 2023]

In case you are not aware. President Barack Hussein Obama has joined the “give the Arabs that call themselves Palestinians a sovereign nation” crowd. This crowd spreads across the Democrat-Republican political spectrum. Most Democrats believe the poor Arabs put in refugee camps because of a multitude of Arab invasions into Israel suffer because Israeli occupation. How can a nation occupy land that was theirs in the first place?

The Republicans in the pro-Two-State solution believe a sovereign Palestinian State will be the beginning of the end of American hatred in the Middle East.

Both these Democrats and Republicans are nuts.

I am a Bible kind-of-guy and as such I see even more land that is not modern Israel’s indeed should be. But let’s go into the secular realm.

After the Ottoman Turks lost WWI the British and the French took possession of the Ottoman Middle East. The League of Nations placed the imprimatur of protection of the Arab Middle East which was divided arbitrarily into British and French spheres of influence called Mandates. The Palestine Mandate was carved out and there was a lot of lobbying to create a homeland for Jews to return to their ancestral homeland: hence the Balfour Declaration toward that end.

Jews had lived in the Levant even under Ottoman rule. After the Balfour Declaration, European Jews began slowly to immigrate to the Palestine Mandate. In the early 1900’s the Arabs that lived in the area could care less about Jewish immigration. The land was considered economically useless.

Jewish ingenuity sparked from Western learning devised ways to make agriculturally usable and economically productive. Even at this early point the Arabs were somewhat happy about the Jewish productivity for it provided employment for Arabs. Indeed the economic boom that came to the former Ottoman holdings enticed Arabs in the Middle East to immigrate to the area for better paying jobs.

Eventually the Arabs that had been under the Ottoman Turk thumb for so many generations began to resent foreign management by Britain and France. The Arabs did not foresee merely switching overlords from Ottoman Turks to the British and the French. Naturally this disgruntlement began to lead to a sense of nationalism. There has always been a Pan-Arab dream of the old glory days; however the Arab Middle East had been carved up according League of Nations (i.e. European) colonialism. There was not one unifying figure for a Pan-Arab nation and I am certain the British and the French would not view such an expansive single State to their national interest. Thus the Arab nationalism fell to tribal or clan families to assert dominance in the European arbitrary borders drawn up for the Arab Middle East.

Naturally the Arabs of the Palestine Mandate became nationalistic as well. This nationalism began to lead toward a dislike of the growing Jewish presence in the Jewish ancestral homeland. This Arab nationalism influenced the British to change their mind a bit on the existence of a Jewish homeland in the face of hostile Arab nationalism.

Indeed the Arab nationalism in the Palestine Mandate began to be belligerent when fellows like the Egyptian born Grand Mufti of Jerusalem began sowing Jew hatred into the Palestine Mandate Arabs.

Unfortunately for the racist Islamic Supremacist Grand Mufti al Husseini, the Jews were a large enough part of the Palestine Mandate population to not be intimidated by hate-speech and anti-Semitism that Jews had been acquainted with for thousands of years anyway.

The more hostile the al-Husseini Muslim-Arabs were to the Jews, the more the Jews pushed back against the Arabs.

The British began to realize they were in an untenable situation that no matter what the Brits did, neither Jewish nor Arab would be a happy camper.

The British solution: Figure out a way to get out of dodge.

The British problem: The Palestine Mandate was an international Trust the British had accepted for capitalistic reasons but were stuck for the responsibility when internecine nationalism became unprofitable for the British National Interests.

About the time the British would have laid this problem on to the International Body of the League of Nations, the League became irrelevant with the growing militarism of Nazi Germany, Fascist Italy and Imperial Japan.

The British were stuck with administering the British Mandate as WWII overtook them.

Re-enter Grand Mufti al-Husseini who conspired with his Jew-hating favorite kafir Adolf Hitler to exterminate Jews (SEE HERE &HERE) in the British Mandate Palestine.

With American help the British defeated Nazi Germany and thus ended al-Husseini’s dream of Nazi aid to exterminate the Jews. The British were exhausted from two world wars in the same century. If they wanted to ditch the Palestine Mandate prior to WWII, it was a must from war weariness to do so now.

Enter another International Body from the ashes of WWII – the United Nations.

The U.N. devised a Two-State plan that would divide the Palestine Mandate into a Jewish and Arab nation. Transjordan was to be the Arab division and I am guessing the name Palestine was thought to be the name of the Jewish division. The thing is the Jews were going to be somewhat short changed in land with this new division that would make Jerusalem an international city belonging to neither Israel nor the Arabs.

The time came and the British finally said, “We’re outta here.”

The relatively new Arab sovereign nations had warned that when the British left they intended to retake all of Palestine for the Arabs.

The Jews who had been developing a military infrastructure with illegal militias that participated in a tit-for-tat terrorist activity with the Arabs were able to toss enough rivalry to form a united force when Israel declared the name of their nation to Israel in 1948.

Five invading Arab armies and Arab participants from the former Palestine Mandate made their move to drive Israel into the sea. Arabs in the new Israel began to leave out of fear of war between Jews and Arabs. There was even a call to get out so the Arab armies could have their usual version of Muslim bloodlust that followed classical Muslim invaders. Also there was a bit of fear of reprisal from Jews if Arab citizen were caught in the cross fire between Jewish and Arab armies.

These fleeing Arabs became the foundation of the Arab refugees who at first were stranded in land under the authority of Arab Jordan (formerly Transjordan) – West Bank - and Egypt - Gaza.

The invading Armies refused to take in the refugees they caused to exist. Indeed they had a motive for establishing refugee camps and labeling the inhabitants Palestinians. That motive was to have a perpetual excuse to invade Israel (Background: HERE & HERE) when Arabs viewed themselves strong enough to terminate the little sliver of land known as Israel.

With the aid of Jew-hating secularist Arabs and an emerging radical Islam, those Arab refugees were inundated with hate propaganda toward Jews to the point that jihad style martyrdom (i.e. homicidal suicide) became a point of honor for the individual and a source of pride to the martyr’s family.

And now President Barack Hussein Obama, American politicians and State Department employees, European nations and Arab nations that can’t stand to have even a sliver of a dar al-harb in their midst; are demanding a sovereign State of Palestine who do not recognize the right of a Jewish State to exist.

Does that make any sense?

Andrew Whitehead of Anti-CAIR is drumming up support to oppose the insanity of creating a Palestinian State.

In Defense Of The Constitution

News & Analysis
May 31, 2009


According to the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) world fact book, the State of Israel occupies a total of 20,770 square kilometers which includes 440 sq km of water. To put this in perspective, the entire country of Israel is smaller than the US state of New Jersey.

The total population of Israel is listed as 7,233,701; this includes non-Jewish Arabs whom are Israeli citizens. Israel is 76.4% Jewish with a minority of Muslims (16%), Arab Christians (1.7%) with “other Christians”, Druze, and unspecified making up the remaining religious groupings.

The government of Israel is a parliamentary democracy with a number of factions making up the Knesset, which includes members who are not only anti-Israel, but anti-Semitic as well.

In short, Israel, excepting its parliamentary form of government, is somewhat a microcosm of the United States; a multi-religious society with a participatory government that includes those dedicated to its destruction from within.

The US president is expected to present a “Peace Speech” in Egypt on June 4. President Obama is expected to announce his support for a “settlement of the Jewish question” by calling on Israel to accept the two state “solution” that will make it impossible for Israel to effectively defend itself. To be blunt, Israel is being asked to commit national suicide first by division into indefensible borders and secondly by massive immigration that will destroy the country from within.

Israel, a country occupying a fraction of the Middle East; a country re-born following the Holocaust; a country that makes a home even for those dedicated to its destruction; is being demanded of by the rest of the world to commit national suicide by dividing itself into two; one side that is expected to live with a false promise of peace and the other that is totally dedicated to destroying the other by any means necessary. Israel must win every war; her numerous enemies only one.

We shall not have peace by any division of Israel; nor will we “solve the Jewish question” by partnering with countries such as Egypt, Saudi Arabia, or any other Muslim-majority country in the Middle East. History has proven, time and time again, that political agreements with Muslim-majority countries are not worth the paper they are printed on and that all “agreements” are viewed by Muslim-majority governments as concessions to their religious ideology.

Let us ask the Saudi’s, the Syrians, and the rest of the Muslim world why they accept the presence of refugee camps housing multi-generations of Palestinians; why they refuse to take these refugee’s or provide them any meaningful assistance? Are not the Palestinians their Muslim brothers and sisters? Why do these Muslim countries turn their back on their brethren and demand of the Jews to destroy their country to accommodate those who have absolutely NO RIGHT to Israel?

The next time someone says “Why, Jew?” when the question of Israel arises, turn your back on him. For an American to pose such a question; given our own history with tyranny at our founding; clearly demonstrates a lack of appreciation for our own freedoms, it would be impossible for such a person to understand other people’s right to the same.

President Obama may get his wish for what could lead to the destruction of Israel; but this would only show the world, again, that the United States stands for what is expedient, not for what is right. How many of our allies will continue to trust us if we turn our backs on Israel?

As for me, I stand for a united Israel…from the river to the sea.

Your letter will read as follows:

Dear President Obama,

Before putting together the final touches on your anticipated “Peace Speech” expected to be delivered in Egypt on June 4, 2009, I request of you a moment or two, to read what your fellow legislators had to say in the year 1922.

The issue at the time was in respect to the recreation of the Jewish National Home - in the area designated for them by the “Mandate for Palestine," an historical League of Nations document referencing the Jewish legal right to settle anywhere in western Palestine, the area between the Jordan River and the Mediterranean Sea, an entitlement unaltered in international law.

Mr. President, there has always been a Jewish presence in the land and reducing any land already granted to the Jewish people under international law is an injustice and a grievous handicap to the well-being of the Jewish State.

The Congressional Resolution follows:

The United States Congressional Record
1922 HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES
National Home for
THE JEWISH PEOPLE JUNE 30, 1922
HOUSE RESOLUTION 360 - UNANIMOUSLY ADOPTED


“Palestine of today, the land we now know as Palestine, was peopled by the Jews from the dawn of history until the Roman era. It is the ancestral homeland of the Jewish people. They were driven from it by force by the relentless Roman military machine and for centuries prevented from returning. At different periods various alien people succeeded them but the Jewish race had left an indelible impress upon the land.

“Today it is a Jewish country. Every name, every landmark, every monument and every trace of whatever civilization remaining there is still Jewish. And it has ever since remained a hope, a longing, as expressed in their prayers for these nearly 2,000 years. No other people has ever claimed Palestine as their national home. No other people has ever shown an aptitude or indicated a genuine desire to make it their homeland. The land has been ruled by foreigners. Only since the beginning of the modern Zionist effort may it be said that a creative, cultural, and economic force has entered Palestine. The Jewish Nation was forced from its natural home. It did not go because it wanted to.

“A perusal of Jewish history, a reading of Josephus, will convince the most skeptical that the grandest fight that was ever put up against an enemy was put up by the Jew. He never thought of leaving Palestine. But he was driven out. But did he, when driven out, give up his hope of getting back? Jewish history and Jewish literature give the answer to the question. The Jew even has a fast day devoted to the day of destruction of the Jewish homeland.

“Never throughout history did they give up hope of returning there. I am told that 90 per cent of the Jews today are praying for the return of the Jewish people to its own home. The best minds among them believe in the necessity of reestablishing their Jewish land. To my mind there is something prophetic in the fact that during the ages no other nation has taken over Palestine and held it in the sense of a homeland; and there is something providential in the fact that for 1,800 years it has remained in desolation as if waiting for the return of the people."

_____________________

For Israel to make further land concessions for any reason is contrary to the original sentiments of the US Congress. Legally, the State of Israel is mandated and exists. We hope you will acknowledge this affirmation of Israel. We also hope that you will insist that the Palestinian Authority and the Arab League abide by this unanimous judgment of our forefathers recognizing Israel as a Jewish State, beginning with your forthcoming speech in Egypt on June 4th, and continuing throughout future policy statements.

The Axis is Preparing for Destabilization



In America the word “axis” has often been politically charged to refer to evil nations. Politically an “axis” seems to involve three nations. For example in WWII the Allies (the victors) battled the Axis powers; viz. the Nazi Third Reich, Fascist Italy and Imperial Japan.

Most would consider the Axis powers as heinously evil with unwilling Italians be ruled by a Fascist government. Incidentally I say “unwilling” because when it became apparent to the Italian citizens that Benito Mussolini was a mere puppet of Hitler’s Third Reich and Italy was paying dearly with their blood in a losing war; an Italian mob got a hold of Il Duce and lynched him in a public square.

Hitler tried to exterminate all people he considered a stain to the Master Aryan Race. This included as many Jews as the Nazis could find.

Imperial Japan led by dictator Tojo in the name of Emperor Hirohito committed horrendous atrocities against Chinese, Koreans and POW’s. Millions died.

Though Il Duce was a puppet, he did his share of atrocities. One of the atrocities was the invasion of Ethiopia utilizing poison gas to subdue the nation.

President Bush had labeled Iraq, Iran and North Korea as an Axis of Evil.

Saddam Hussein’s Iraq was a genocidal and authoritarian in ways that no doubt would receive a hat tip Der Fuehrer or Comrade Stalin.

The revolutionary Mullahs of Iran purged the nation of all that may have opposed the psycho-Shi’ites grip on power.

North Korea’s Communist family cult regime mask’s their despotism with Communism; however the people are starved, abused, murdered and propagandized resulting in the Kim family retaining absolute rule.

The so-called humanitarian organization that is supposed to battle the Axis of Evil global atrocities known as the United Nations more often than not serves to protect the evil in nations rather than condemn them. For example the United Nations spends volumes on paper condemning the only democratic-minded nation in the Middle East in the sliver of land known as Israel. Yet the amount of condemnation of the brutal practices associated with Islam goes largely unreported. In fact the U.N. is pushing a global agenda to make it against International Law to criticize acts of Islam while looking the other way as Mohammedans do their best to slaughter Jews. Indeed there is nary a U.N. condemnation against the rising return of Jewish anti-Semitism that is emerging Western nations.

Iraq designs of regional hegemony were derailed by President G.W. Bush. Regardless of what you have heard about the lack of finding WMD in Iraq it is documented that huge amounts of yellow cake was transported from Iraq to Canada to keep out of Islamic terrorist hands and for Canada to use it for actual peaceful purposes. If you think psycho-Saddam would not have sought a way to turn yellow cake into some kind of weapon, then you should re-examine the genocide link above.

There is absolutely no doubt in my mind (and Israel’s security apparatus) that Iran is enriching uranium to weapons grade for nuclear weapons. Yet the only thing the world does (sucking up to the U.N. style and oil worries) is write mass papers of condemnation thinking the ink on paper will stop a regime from following through on its very public statements of driving Israel into the sea.

Now Iran is watching with glee as North Korea successfully test detonated a nuclear weapon with the destructive scale that Hiroshima and Nagasaki experienced at the end of WWII.

What was the global response to the Nuke detonation? President Barack Hussein Obama led the way in the usual scary tactic of unleashing a verbal attack that was more likely followed by some official paper with the Presidential Seal on it. I have not sought it out but I would be surprised if the U.N. in their faux position as protector of world peace also wasted some paper devoted to North Korea. In fact knowing that paper does nothing, even Red China denounced the Nuke detonation. O the poor trees. This could set back the Green Movement.

Caroline B. Glick writes about how North Korea’s Nuke detonation, exporting missile technology and the general sales of nuke information is actually an attack on Israel. Do you think that is far fetched? If you do then you are unaware of two psycho-regimes that are buddy in the exchange of weapons technology (no doubt for oil). North Korea and Iran are near kiss'in cousins.

Since it is evident that President Barack Hussein Obama may toss Israel’s National Security under the bus, what Israel have to loose to at least take a shot at Iran’s nuclear industry?

A Middle East War Looming?


Here is some information from one of the top dogs in Conspiracy news – Prison Planet. The news article is entitled, “As Israel rages, US plans for Iran war re-emerge.”

Now I enjoy reading Conspiracy news however this kind of news is often derived from hear-say sources. Thus the reliability may be questionable because the truth is either stretched or if the news is on track with the source, confirmation is difficult to impossible to establish. News from coming Conspiracy news sources either look brilliant with the “I told you so” or the News appears laughable if it defies logic or tends to turn out just plain wrong.

This Prison Planet story has Prime Minister Netanyahu informing President Obama that Israel will go it alone to attack Iran if need be. The reality is such a desperate attempt at self-preservation would be at best a suicide mission if it succeeded.

The conclusion of Prison Planet is that if Israel goes it alone a Middle East war would emerge (that very well could expand into a World War); thus Obama chooses to prepare for war with the emerging enemies.

Neither Prison Planet nor I could divide decisively who those enemies would be except for the certainty of Iran. Because Hamas and Hezbollah line up with Iran such a war would divide the loyalties of the region. My guess is the Saudi leadership will have to decide to join the USA and Israel against Iran. Not because Saudi Arabia loves either nation but because Wahhabis hate Iranian Shi’ites. It is doubtful that the Wahhabi Saudis could stomach being on an equal to subservient plain with Iran.

Then there is Iraq. Such a war would surely line-up the Iraqi Sunni and Kurds against the Iraqi Shi’ites thus at the very least splitting the nation in two or at the worst into three hostile nations of a former Iraq.

Turkey would probably join the USA and Israel against Iran but not with gusto. There seems to be an unreasonable Turkish hatred toward the current largest national group without a sovereign nation – the Kurds.

Syria would join Iran out of existential need. Yet remember Syria is ruled by the minority Alawite-Shi’ites over the majority Syrian Sunnis. I suspect Lebanon would totally cease to exist as it is turn to pieces between American, Israeli and Turkish militaries on one side and Hezbollah, Syrian and rogue Iranian National Guard on the other end. Lebanon’s existence would be decided by the victors at the end of the regional conflict.

Then there are the wild card nations of Egypt and Jordan. Both of those nation’s citizens have a HUGE amount of sympathy for the Arabs who designate themselves as Palestinians. The first sympathies of the rulers of those two nations would be to counter the hated Iranian hegemonic plans for the Middle East; however Mohammedan riots no doubt urged by the Sunni Muslim Brotherhood (Ikhwan) could mess up the governments of Egypt and Jordan neutralizing actual partnership with the USA to stay in power at their homes.

The current Afghan government would turn into a total puppet of the USA as the Taliban sympathetic populace will probably take up with the Islamic Terrorists stretching between both Afghanistan and Pakistan.

Pakistan may disintegrate as a so-called secular Republic as the radical Islamic terrorists who have the hearts of both Afghanistan and Pakistan overrun Pakistan from one side as the current military looks over their back to see what action India will take expecting the worst.

Then comes the globalized part of any Middle East conflict. Russian and China by necessity will have to choose sides. At first glance those two nations may feel it is in their National Interest to go with Iran initially. On the other hand I can see a scenario that China and India join the USA against Iran out of (ironically) Capitalist market issues. Although China needs Middle Eastern oil, they are totally invested in American markets in which the USA owes the Red Chinese some dough.

China and Russia have put on a unified front militarily lately however I sense China would throw Russia under a bus in a heart beat if they thought the best chance to remain a powerful emerging wealth nation was to hook-up with America.

If China switched to support America in a Middle East war, Russia may bow out due to self-preservation. Or there is the uncertainty of the re-emergence of Russian hubris may cause the Russian government to go for broke by supporting Iran. It would not be the first time in Russian history that Russia appeared to be down for the count only to bounce back a victor. There is Russia versus Napoleon and Russia versus Hitler as examples.

I really don’t have a good guess about Russian in a Middle East conflict. As a Bible student I would guess Russia would join Iran and Syria merely because most Protestant Biblical prophetic based ministries expect Russia to come from the North to threaten Israel’s existence. If this turns out to be that prophetic time, when things look dire the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob will step in on Israel’s behalf at the last moment to render a decisive victory for Israel.

If it is not that prophetic moment, then look toward traditional geopolitical maneuvering to line up the sides as the cards are slowly drawn for play.

At any rate Prison Planet views President Obama to have contingency plans ready to battle Iran.

    To the Testimony of Israel,
    To give thanks to the name of the LORD.
    5 For thrones are set there for judgment,
    The thrones of the house of David.


    6 Pray for the peace of Jerusalem:
    “May they prosper who love you.
    7 Peace be within your walls,
    Prosperity within your palaces.”
    8 For the sake of my brethren and companions,
    I will now say, “Peace be within you.”
    9 Because of the house of the LORD our God
    I will seek your good.
    – Psalm 122 NKJV


If you have been paying attention to the news the last year or so, you have to be aware the U.S. government has been gravitating toward appeasing Middle Eastern Muslims for some time.

I found it crazy a man that has openly and forthrightly been a Christian Believer had succumbed to the paradigm that if a Palestinian State exists and the USA helps it to do so, then the Middle Eastern Muslim nations will fall in line like dominoes on the peace train of acceptance of Israel’s existence and pour gratitude toward America.

Of course that man was former President G. W. Bush.

President Bush appeared to be courting the Middle Eastern Muslim nations (the Arab ones in particular) with this magnanimous gesture while simultaneously guaranteeing Israel’s existence if the dominoes did not fall quite right.

Frankly I was greatly disappointed in this Bush path.

Then enter Obamasiah of the Left. President Barack Hussein Obama seems to have taken the Bush path and tweaked it to arm twisting of ‘do this or else’ to Israel. The Obama Administration, some Leftist minions in Congress and remarkably a huge majority of Jewish-Americans are demanding Israel cave into the self-destructive Two-State paradigm of an Israel and an independent sovereign Jew-hating Palestinian State.

Everyone knows Israel has nuke WMD. That knowledge was an unofficial open secret until anti-Semitic former President Carter announced it to the world in order for his beloved Jew-hating Muslims in the Middle East to have their extra pound of anti-Semitic propaganda.

Friends we have to remember Israel has had to fight wars from its modern inception in 1948 to the present to maintain an existence. If you ever look on a map a moron could not deny Israel’s survival in this modern age is by the supernatural Hand of God. There is no way a sliver of land populated by a drop of Jews surrounded by an ocean of Jew-hating Middle Eastern Muslims could have survived without the Hand of God.

And yet there is a huge amount of Muslim and Leftist morons (including Leftist Jews in America) that have their minds so calloused they cannot see the supernatural that has taken place. For if they perceived the Hand of God there is no way there would be such a loud banshee Leftist cry for a Two-State solution. The Left is blinded by secular humanism and the relativist reasoning of humanity.

If you are a Christian (and I have to believe a religious Jew) you must stave off this blight of Leftist thinking and pray for the peace of Jerusalem (i.e. a united ONE Jerusalem under Israel sovereignty) to fill in the gaps of spiritual evil working to destroy Judaism (again) and the Land of Israel.

If you need a more journalistic-intelligent insight of the nature of the Obama Administration’s agenda for Israel, you need to read Melanie Phillips’ editorial entitled, “Obama prepares to throw Israel under the bus”.

Dr. Wael Perpetuates Muslim Propaganda

© February 13, 2009


Here is a comment from Dr. Wael a citizen of Egypt. I believe the comment is in reference to this post,
The CRC is another Step toward U.N. World Government.
Yet Dr. Wael could be complaining about many posts on SlantRight.com. I am not exactly Islamic friendly.

Dr. Wael’s website:
Arab Honor


Sir
you must be very close to the region or live in it

There is an Arab proverb says "our street is narrow and we know each other"
I hope you are talking to maybe.......? Europeans or to Americans but not to an Arab who live here in Egypt very close to Israel So let's be realistic and speak in a manner that we can keep a debate going OK?

And [sic] here are the things:

Bush would not appolgiz [sic] for the question of WMD in his last days in office and Colin powel [sic] won't resign.

When Al Qaeida leader confest [sic] of 911? and I assure you that such a tribman [sic] like Ben Laden would never even think about attacking America or Israel. we [sic] have in our country a lot of them.

2/3rd of Americans want Bush in court for his behaviour in (war against terror) and damage caused to the country Ok we we recognize [sic] Israel as country and it's people right to live in security but that doesnt [sic] mean to launch a propaganda against Arabs who are Muslims and Christians or against Muslims alone, Because even I am a christian but my culture is islamic and i am proud.

______________________________

I am guessing Dr. Wael is implying that Christians, Jews and Muslims all live in harmony in the Arab Middle East under the wisdom of Islamic Culture.

Not that sounds a little hard to believe and it sounds like the kind of propaganda that Muslims would like the West and/or Christians in America to buy.

It is ridiculous!

First let’s put the harmony of religions submitting to a peace of an Islamic Culture.

    • Arab nations lied how they treated Jews prior to the establishment of the nation Israel in 1948 by saying the Jews living in harmony would be attacked and expelled if Israel was allowed to become a nation. The fact is all across the Muslim Middle East and Muslim North Africa (yep including Egypt and Syria) Jews were already being persecuted. After Israel became a nation in 1948 and whupped multiple invading Islamic nations then a comparable amount of Jews were expelled to the amount of Arabs that fled from Israel hoping invading Muslims would push Jews into the sea.

    • Dr. Wael identifies himself as a Christian Egyptian proud of Arab (which really means Islamic) culture. Let’s see: If Dr. Wael is an Egyptian and a Christian he would be Coptic. The Coptic Christians are actually what remains of the original Egyptian language derived from as far back as the days of the Pharaohs. The Coptic Christians of Egypt have had a better relationship with Muslims than other conquered Christians in the Middle East; however that has been an on again off again experience depending on which Muslim leader rules. Since the end of WWII Egyptian Muslims have been highly influenced by the Wahhabi form of Islam which dominates the Muslim Brotherhood (Ikhwan). The Copts have been highly persecuted to the point of migration. Guess where the Coptic Christians migrate too? One hint: It is not to Saudi Arabia. O yes that would be the nation that has a tradition of the freedom of religion – the USA.

    That is just Egypt.
    Christians residing in nations dominated by Islam have constantly received the foot of humiliation and persecution. (See also HERE)

    Islam is not only harsh toward kafir, the Theo-Political religion is also harsh on its own adherents when the perception of violating social norms proscribed by Sharia. Islam is also harsh to its adherents for viewing one practice of Islam better than the other such as Sunni vs. Shia.

    Read Brigitte Gabriel’s book “Because they Hate”: This is an excellent example of a Christian Middle Easterner (Lebanon), whose faith was the dominant religion of Lebanon being persecuted into the minority.


There is no harmony among people in Islamic culture Dr. Wael.

Dr. Wael displays his ignorance of America when he says “2/3 of America want bush in court ...” He obviously equates low poll ratings with
the deluded ramblings of some fringe American Leftists who called for President Bush to be prosecuted.

If Dr. Wael is indeed a Christian while simultaneously proud of his Islamic culture (“my culture”), then Dr. Wael is obviously a real good dhimmi.

This is the long response. Dr. Wael visited the SlantRight sister blog at Slant Right blogger and made these comments:

Dr Wael said...

Why ? Why this hate and this revolt against Islam and Muslim?
Muslim do wars , Do terror ,Do 911
Dear
911 was just a lie just like Bush's weapon of mass distruction in Iraq
See my blog.
I am not a muslim but I live with them in Syria and Egypt
maybe muslim in the west differnt?


Here is my short version response there:

Theway2k said...

Dr. Wael Hmm ...

You are either the victim or a perpetuator of the delusions that come from rogue Syria or elements of Ihkwan [sic] in Egypt.

1. 911 was an al-Qaeda plan in which the actual planner Khalid Sheikh Mohammed
confessed.

2. There are sources of information that differ from the Duelfer Report which probably has refused to acknowledge because of Political Correctness or the fear of causing a diplomatic incident.

*Russia in an Intelligence coup
moved WMD out of Iraq
.

*Former Iraqi Air Force General Georges Sada on Iraqi WMD.

*David Gaubatz ignored by Iraq Survey Group that was responsible for investigating the existence of Iraq WMD (Hmm ... Charles Duelfer was one of the lead ISG people ignoring Gaubatz).

United Nations Hypocrisy against Jews and Israel


Hmm … See if you can see a thread of continuous anti-Semitism and global hypocrisy in the quotes and thoughts below ranging from the publication of Mein Kampf in 1925 through the present in December 2008.

Adolf Hitler:

The Jews domination in the state seems so assured that now not only can he call himself a Jew again, but he ruthlessly admits his ultimate national and political designs. A section of his race openly owns itself to be a foreign people, yet even here they lie. For while the Zionists try to make the rest of the world believe that the national consciousness of the Jew finds its satisfaction in the creation of a Palestinian state, the Jews again slyly dupe the dumb Goyim. It doesnt even enter their heads to build up a Jewish state in Palestine for the purpose of living there; all they want is a central organization for their international world swindle, endowed with its own sovereign rights and removed from the intervention of other states: a haven for convicted scoundrels and a university for budding crooks. (Extracts from Mein Kampf by Adolf Hitler)


Hitler's Conversation with Josef Hell, 1922

When Hell asked Hitler what he intended doing if he ever had full freedom of action against the Jews, his response was:

"If I am ever really in power, the destruction of the Jews will be my first and most important job. As soon as I have power, I shall have gallows after gallows erected, for example, in Munich on the Marienplatz-as many of them as traffic allows. Then the Jews will be hanged one after another, and they will stay hanging until they stink. They will stay hanging as long as hygienically possible. As soon as they are untied, then the next group will follow and that will continue until the last Jew in Munich is exterminated. Exactly the same procedure will be followed in other cities until Germany is cleansed of the last Jew!" (quoted in John Toland, Adolf Hitler. London: Book Club Associates, 1977, p.116) Statements by Hitler and Senior Nazis Concerning Jews and Judaism


Victor Davis Hanson - 2006

Hezbollah’s black-clad legions goose-step and stiff-arm salute in parade, apparently eager to convey both the zeal and militarism of their religious fascism. Meanwhile, consider Hezbollah’s “spiritual” head, Hassan Nasrallah — the current celebrity of an unhinged Western media that tried to reinvent the man’s own self-confessed defeat as a victory. Long before he hid in the Iranian embassy Nasrallah was on record boasting: “The Jews love life, so that is what we shall take away from them. We are going to win because they love life and we love death.”

Iran’s Mahmoud Ahmadinejad trumps that Hitlerian nihilism by reassuring the poor, maltreated Germans that there was no real Holocaust. Perhaps he is concerned that greater credit might still go to Hitler for Round One than to the mullahs for their hoped-for Round Two, in which the promise is to “wipe” Israel off the map.

The only surprise about the edition of Hitler’s Mein Kampf that has become a best seller in Middle Eastern bookstores is its emboldened title translated as “Jihadi” — as in “My Jihad” — confirming in ironic fashion the “moderate” Islamic claim that Jihad just means “struggle,” as in an “inner struggle” — as in a Kampf perhaps.

Meanwhile, we in the West who worry about all this are told to fret instead about being “Islamophobes.” Indeed, a debate rages over the very use of “Islamic fascism” to describe the creed of terrorist killers — as if those authoritarians who call for a return of the ancient caliphate, who wish to impose 7th-century sharia law, promise death to the Western “crusader” and “Jew,” and long to retreat into a mythical alternate universe of religious purity and harsh discipline, untainted by a “decadent” liberal West, are not fascists. It is almost as if Alfred Rosenberg has returned in a kaffiyeh to explain why Jews really are apes and pigs, and why we must recapture the spirit of our primitive ancestors.
(Victor Davis Hanson excerpt from blog Thoughts of a Conservative Christian)


Father Miguel d'Escoto Brockmann, President of U.N. General Assembly:

UNITED NATIONS (IPS) - The president of the United Nations General Assembly, Father Miguel d'Escoto Brockmann, dropped a political bombshell last week when he lashed out at Israel for its repressive actions in the Occupied Palestinian Territories, including the recent blockade of humanitarian aid to Gaza.

"What is being done to the Palestinian people seems to me to be a version of the hideous policy of apartheid," he told delegates, during a meeting commemorating the "International Day of Solidarity with the Palestinian People."



D'Escoto damned both the Israelis and the UN for the plight of the Palestinians. "And he was on target," the official added.

"I believe," d'Escoto said, "that the failure to create a Palestinian state as promised is the single greatest failure in the history of the United Nations."

UN's obsession is grotesque and Orwellian

By Jeff Jacoby
Dec. 5, 2008 / 8 Kislev 5769
Jewish World Review


http://www.jewishworldreview.com/ THE PRESIDENT of the UN General Assembly, Miguel d'Escoto Brockmann of Nicaragua, has denounced the policies of a certain Middle Eastern nation. They are "so similar to the apartheid of an earlier era," he said, "that the world must unite against them, demanding an "end to this massive abuse of human rights" and isolating the offending nation as it once isolated South Africa: with a punishing "campaign of boycott, divestment, and sanctions."

Of which country was he speaking?

Was it Saudi Arabia, where public facilities are segregated by sex, and where a pervasive system of gender apartheid denies women the right to drive, to dress as they choose, to freely marry or divorce, to vote, to appear in public without a male "guardian," or to give testimony on an equal basis with men?

Was it Jordan, where the law explicitly bars Jews from citizenship and where the sale of land to a Jew was for decades not only illegal, but punishable by death?

Was it Iran, where homosexuality is a capital crime — at least 200 Iranian gays were executed last year - and whose president, Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, asserted at Columbia University that there are no homosexuals in Iran?

Was it Sudan, where tens of thousands of black Africans in the country's southern region, most of them Christians or animists, have been abducted and sold into slavery by Arab militias backed by the Islamist regime in Khartoum?

It was none of these. The General Assembly president, a radical Maryknoll priest who served as Nicaragua's foreign minister during the Sandinista regime in the 1980s, was not referring to any of the Middle East's Muslim autocracies and dictatorships, virtually all of which discriminate against ethnic and religious minorities. He was speaking of the Jewish state of Israel, the region's lone democracy, and the only one that guarantees the legal equality of all its citizens - one-fifth of whom are Muslim and Christian Arabs.

D'Escoto's call for Israel to be shunned as a pariah and strangled economically came on the UN's Day of Solidarity with the Palestinian People, an annual occasion devoted to lamenting the rebirth of Jewish sovereignty in the 20th century, denouncing the national liberation movement — Zionism - that made that rebirth possible, and championing the cause of the Palestinian Arabs. The event occurs on or about Nov. 29, the anniversary of the UN vote in 1947 to partition Palestine into two states, one Jewish and one Arab. There are impassioned speeches, in which Israel's sins are enumerated and condemned, and the statelessness of the Palestinians is bewailed. Unmentioned is the fact that Palestine's Arabs would have had their state 60 years ago had they and the Arab League not rejected the UN's decision and chosen instead to declare war on the new Jewish state.

Like so much of what takes place at the UN, the obsession with demonizing Israel and extolling the Palestinians is grotesque and Orwellian. More than 1 million Israeli Arabs enjoy civil and political rights unmatched in the Arab world — yet Israel is accused of repression and human-rights abuse. Successive Israeli governments have endorsed a "two-state solution" - yet Israel is blasted as the obstacle to peace. The Palestinian Authority oversees the vilest culture of Jew-hatred since the Third Reich, and wants all Jews expelled from the land it claims for itself - yet Israel is labeled an "apartheid state" and singled out for condemnation and ostracism.

Make no mistake: In likening Israel to apartheid-era South Africa, the UN is engaged not in anti-racism but in anti-Semitism. In the 1930s, the world's foremost anti-Semites demanded a boycott of Jewish businesses. Today they demand a boycott of the Jewish state.

"No good German is still buying from a Jew," announced Hitler's Nazi Party in March 1933. "The boycott must be a universal one . . . and must hit Jewry where it is most vulnerable." Seventy-five years later, the president of the General Assembly urges the world to throttle Israel's 6 million Jews with "boycott, divestment, and sanctions." There is no significant difference between the two cases — or the animus underlying them.

When the UN adopted its odious "Zionism is racism resolution" in 1975, US Ambassador Daniel Patrick Moynihan minced no words. "The United States," he declared, "does not acknowledge, it will not abide by, it will never acquiesce in this infamous act." Where is such a voice of moral outrage today?

The Hitler/Ahmadinejad Analogy Again


The analogy between Hitler and the rise of Islamofascism is not a new picture being portrayed by Conservatives. It seems the analogy is particularly pertinent to Iran which simultaneously openly speaks hatred of Israel and America while warning about the actions Iran will take if any nation (hmm … yeah, again Israel and/or Israel) does anything to hinder the Iranian nuke program. Incidentally everyone knows this Iranian nuke program is actually a Weapons of Mass Destruction program.

The powers that exist in this world blithely sit by believing that simply talking to Iranian leadership will convince that government how awful it would be to pursue the ability to nuke Israel. Iran says “let’s talk” and yet continues on its merry way to nuke WMD paradise with a policy of public denial or ok we’ll slow down or you can inspect what we’re doing to get out of Iran because we can do what we wish. In other words Iran with Nazi-like genius is putting the capable powers off until Iran has power to make a legitimate hegemonic move on the Middle East.

Just like in the 1930’s when the WWI weary pacifistic Europe thought talk and give and give would bring Hitler to his senses about European aggression, so are the EU powers and America slipping into the same trap again.

Hitler was emboldened by European give and give. How do you think Ahmadinejad (who has delusions of Islamic Messianism) will act after the EU promises of give and give to Iran?

Dr. Laurie Roth of the great State of Washington who was inspired by Thomas Sowell in turn inspired my thoughts on the old Hitler/Ahmadinejad analogy.

Is it Possible there is ONLY an Appearance of a China/Russia Alliance?



1913Intel.com has picked an essay from Stratfor.com relating to bilateral relations between China and Russia. (Thus I have accomplished part of my due diligence of giving credit to who credit is due.)

Now you really need to read this essay by Peter Zeihan entitled, “China and Russia’s Geographic Divide”.

BUT before you do read Zeihan’s essay you need to have some thoughts in the back of your mind.

Consider that Russia (as the USSR) was a fomenter of instability in the Middle East during the Cold War rallying Mohammedan Nations with huge arms sales in the Islamofascist quest to wipe Israel off the map. Fortunately American sold weaponry (with Israeli innovation) was far superior to the old Soviet weaponry. It was fortunate because the little slice of Land known as Israel repeatedly defeated invading Mohammedan Armies from the North, West, South and (kind-of) East. So much were the Israeli victories that Israel re-attained some of their ancient heritage which America and the West is currently pressuring Israel to give up.

With the end of the Cold War and the downfall of Soviet Communism, the large installments of weaponry have not been forthcoming from Russia. On the other hand America was attacked by Islamofascist terrorists on American soil which has led America to become embroiled in an anti-terrorist Global War on Terror (GWOT) concentrated mostly in the Middle East.

Russia has taken this opportunity to trade technology more than weaponry. Sadly this has been with rogue nations Iran (primarily) and Syria. It is Russia that is aiding Iran with nuclear training lying to the world that Iran is going nuclear for peaceful purposes. Thus Russia has made every effort in the U.N. Security Council to water down harsh sanction to Iran just as Russia did with Iraq when Iraq was the recipient of technology. There is no smoking gun on WMD in Iraq but it is fairly common knowledge that
Russia Special Forces smuggled the chemical WMD out of Iraq just prior or during the American invasion and HUGE amounts of weapons grade uranium was recently transported to Canada for peaceful processing.

Then there is China. China is also on the U.N. Security Council and its story is similar to Russia. China has been selling weapons in exchange for oil to Iran. And
I suspect to old Saddam Hussein as well under the table so to speak (On the link scroll down to “What did Iraq buy with the money?”).

Thus there is the appearance that Russia and (still Communist) China are in cahoots for oil reasons AND geopolitical reasons to offset the hegemony of America. Like I said though, it is an “appearance.”

Peter Zeihan demonstrates with a little history and a little observation of China and Russia’s National Interest such an appearance of an alliance might be more illusion than reality.

Now you are prepared to READ “China and Russia’s Geographic Divide.”

This Means War


Ted Belman posted on Israpundit with a title: “This Means War.” I hate to poke fun at the title for I do agree with Belman’s assessment; the first thought that popped into my head was how a few Looney Tune characters responded in cartoon anger.

Bugs Bunny, Daffy Duck and Elmer Fudd all used a similar term when their cartoon ire was raised: “Of course you know, this means war.”

Of all the rivalries I remember the Bugs VS Daffy the best. Bugs always won.

Wouldn’t it be great to finally determine to win the war against Islamofascism in the Middle East? Team Bugs-America-Israel-AndTheWilling win so utterly that team Daffy-Islamists hold up the “surrender” sign.

Whether you are an Appeaser/loser or insightful winner, there is no manner of political diplomacy that will solve or resolve the Middle Eastern problems until the Bugs team finally realizes the Daffy team has gone too far and calmly chomp on a carrot and proclaim, “Of course you know, this means war.”

Patraeus to Command CentCom


General David Patraeus is being promoted from Baghdad Command to Central Command in the Middle East.

This is happening after Admiral Fallon abruptly resigned the CentCom position in March over strategy disagreement with the Bush Administration. Fa
llon opposed “The Surge” while Bush and Patraeus agreed it was a need
. Patraeus obviously won out and it looks like he is taking the old bosses job.

With “The Surge” being way more successful than its opponents could ever have imagined; speculation must begin to arise as to the position of CentCom Commander for Patraeus. This is so particularly because of all the
saber rattling from Iran and the promise of retaliation even from Democratic candidate Hillary.

Iran is supplying terrorist enemies of America and America’s ally Israel. Is the Bush Administration planning some kind of strike on Iran? It is just something to think about.

Inside the Worldview of a Middle Eastern Muslim


Brigitte Gabriel’s Act for America has sent a copy of an email of a so-called moderate Mohammedan. The email was forwarded to her as she explains. The email is a demonstration of the mind of the so-called moderate Mohammedan. In essence willing to say “Islamist terrorism” is bad, but the American fight against them is evil.

Not only that the forwarded email demonstrates the pervasive attitude of the 9/11 attacks on American soil; viz. that they Mohammedans were not responsible. The forwarded email takes a
Truther attitude in that it was a government conspiracy in which President Bush teamed up with Israel to create a state of war against the Middle East.

The email goes on to name all the anti-Islamist writers and pundits who are trying to educate America about Mohammedanism as racist hate mongers. The perception of racist hate monger is no doubt the Mohammedan mind cannot wrap around the fact that their revered holy writings emphasize intolerance, hate and supremacist attitudes toward anything non-Mohammedan or critical of Mohammedanism.

Below is the partially unedited forwarded email as emailed to me from Act for America. I say partially because where the original has a response in red from Act for America I am making bold print and placing a space between the Mohammedan’s email and Act for America’s responses.

    Recently, one of our members forwarded us an email thread containing correspondence she had with a Middle Eastern Muslim, who professes not to support any anti-American organization. The email from the Muslim is a stunning window into the thinking of Muslims in the Middle East. While one cannot generalize the views of one Muslim to all Muslims, other empirical evidence, such as survey research, confirms that much of what this Muslim is expressing is commonly held by Muslims in the Middle East.

    We have inserted commentary in red where appropriate. What you see below is the exact text and layout of the email as it was sent to our member. As you read it, keep in mind that this is coming from someone who professes to be peaceful and not anti-American.
_____________________________________

my dear girl with all do respect, u seem to like and support every anti islamic, anti arab site in America's and admire people like pipes and Brigitte who r racist and fanatic.

[this is a common ad hominem response by Muslims to those who speak out against militant Islam. They are unable to dispute the facts that support the critique of militant Islam, so they resort to name calling and attacking the person].

I don't support any anti christian or anti american site or group. Yes i disagree with american policies in the middle east, but i wish no harm to anyone. there is no islamic authoritarianism in america..trust me on that, there no hidden extremist or sleeping cells.

[a remarkable disregard for publicly verified facts; sleeper cells in America have been uncovered and some broken up].

this all the creation of the Israeli propaganda machine in order to keep Islam the new enemy and to keep attention from israel crimes in the middle east and from the real threat to america, the jewish zionist sleeper cells, who have caused so much damage to america.

[the preceding is standard anti-Jewish, anti-Israeli conspiratorial rhetoric].

examples of these cells,richard perl, wolfowitz, doug fieth,allan dershweitz,and eliot abrams in the nsc.most of these people at one time of another spied for Israel and passed american secrets to israel. these people were in power to drag america into war in iraq, causing the death of a million iraqi and thousands of americans soldirs.they are the real threat to america, not to mention the billions of dollars they made america loose. as for cair, its doing wat jewish american organization did 30 years ago but to a lesser scale.cair is defending muslims because of the hysteria against islam in america now.but unlike jewish organizations, cair does not work against america.who do u think is against prayers in schools, and christmas decorations in public buildings? its jewish organizations in america.although i think cair over does it sometimes but it has no agenda.

[CAIR has no “agenda”? Its actions demonstrate it is intent on manipulating public opinion, stifling debate, and shutting down criticism of militant Islam. What’s more, in spite of CAIR claiming it is a “mainstream” organization, numerous leaders of CAIR have been investigated, some arrested, some indicted, for ties to terrorism. In December papers were filed in federal court alleging CAIR is in fact tied to terrorist groups and has attempted to deceive America about those ties].

NO BODY WANTS TO CHANge AMERICA AND MAKE IT MUSLIM, I CHALLENG U AND UR FRIEND BRIGITE TO GIVE ME THE NAME OF ANYBODY WHO IS TRYING TO ISLAMIZE AMERICA.or the extremist hiding in order to destroy america, its rubbish.

[For just one example, how about the D.C. Imam who has called for the replacement of America with the North American State of Islam?]

as i told u, after 9/11 and after thousands of man hours of investigations the FBI found no connection to any muslim in america with the hijackers.

[this is a widely held, and completely unfounded, conspiracy theory among Muslims, that the Mossad, in league with the Bush Administration, are the ones who were really behind 9/11.]

now not all muslims in america r perfect same as christians.if anyone breaks the law he should b charged. I don't understand why u r surprised why i don't like Brigitte? i dont because she is ignorant and racist.

[another ad hominem attack]

how would u feel if i will start a group tomorrow called wake up america.it will focus on extremist christians-since most american are- and dangerous characters who r likey to kill, rape, steal, attack and might harm other americans.all the statistics say I am right, the crime rates is high, for sure people will b killed and robbed. wat do u think,,just like brigit, but ill replace muslim with christian in her site. then u always say i have muslims friends and u don't want to hurt their feelings, i do believe u, but then u associate with all muslim haters and bashers. How about this...i like american and i like u, but ill be friends with operators of alqaida sites and bin laden.how does that feel? ill never do that. I like america and like for america to have a fair policy in the middle east.I like america the way its. i dont want america to turn into a 3rd world country.i want all faiths to b in america in peace.to respect each others. Islam has been in america for a hundreds years, how come we heared nothing about it before 9/11.why they did not change america before
