It's-a-comin'.....
08/16/10

Posted on 08/16/2010 8:33:05 AM PDT by AngelesCrestHighway

Three strangers strike up a conversation in the passenger lounge in the Bozeman , Montana airport, while waiting for their respective flights..

One is an American Indian passing through from Lame Deer, another is a Cowboy on his way to Billings for a livestock show, and the third passenger is a fundamentalist Arab student, newly arrived at Montana State University from the Middle East ....

Their discussion drifts to their diverse cultures. Soon, the two Westerners learn that the Arab is a devout, radical Muslim and the conversation falls into an uneasy lull.

The cowboy leans back in his chair, crosses his boots on a magazine table, tips his big sweat-stained hat forward over his face, and lights a cigarette.

Finally, the American Indian clears his throat and softly he speaks, 'At one time here... my people were many... but sadly, now we are few.'

The Muslim student raises an eyebrow and leans forward, 'Once my people were few,' he sneers, 'and now we are many. Why do you suppose that is?'

The cowboy removes his cigarette from his mouth and from the darkness beneath his Stetson says in a smooth drawl . . .

'I reckon that's 'cause we ain't played Cowboys and Muslims yet, But I do believe it's a-comin'.'

>Did “they” ever think how easy it is to spot someone who has to wear a beard and pray 37 times a day.<

.
Never mind the beard and prayers — their hateful stare gives them away, any day. They want to be and always will remain foreigners in a western society.

An intolerant ideology as theirs does not deserve tolerance by the host country. Up to now present and previous governments have bent backwards and put on kneepads to please them and all they got in return was a kick in the crotch.

Perhaps this country is slowly waking up to the reality of the destructiveness of Islam.

It’ll come to a head. I personally think we will have to lose some of our lands to the illegals. The problem is, when you fail to stand unequivocably, from the beginning, you risk losing that opportunity. One of my favorite quotes is, “If you don’t make decisions in time, time will make decisions for you.”

When the Minute Men went to the border, they should have been allowed to stand up them. They had a tough decision to make. The FedGov is responsible for countless murders, as they did not protect them (border states), and more innocents are dying. If the cowboys/patriots ever get let loose, I think they’ll triumph. It’s just a matter of them waking up, and letting loose!

The Sheepdogs have been replaced by wolves, and they’re testing what they can get away with before they try culling the population. But Freedom, despite having a very short shelf life, is still worth dying for, if not for us, for our wives, and our children, for our mothers and grandmothers, liberty must endure!

In Santa Clara Ca (Silicon Valley) the planning commission just unanimously approved a 64-foot minaret in front of a Muslim mosque. Not even 1 opposing vote.

I guess the dhimmis should be thankful that there will be no sound system so we won’t be compelled to listen to the “call to prayer” 5 times a day - YET.

“That’s because before we can play Cowboys and Ragheads or Cowboys and Illegal Scumbag Aliens, we’re gonna have to play a game of Cowboys and Commies. Scouts Out! Cavalry Ho!”

+1, Agreed. But we need to be united, and not just cowboys. The monopolization of power to a few representatives was deliberate, and intentional. We must cleanse the inward vessel first. My hope is that, as a nation, we start by this fall.

I will take your bet and a bag of potatoe chips. Again, nice thought/joke. America is too fat and lazy, that includes conservatives and liberals alike. There will have to be way more suffering before the average joe pulls the trigger.

Way to far down the socialist road due to what has been taught in schools and how corporations have handled employess for the last 40-50 years and cheap beer/food coupled with the internet and TV. The US is not too far removed from the MATRIX. Steak aaahhhh mmmmm steak...

Before the opening volley on Fort Sumter, only about 25% of the south wanted to cede. The attack galvanized the remainder. The South may have had a different outcome if things had gone only a little differently.

Additionally, only 1/3 of colonials were Sepratists (What we now call Patriots). We don’t just look at the majority of people in the nation, but the strength of individuals who stand together. This land/nation is one born on the priciples of freedom. That will endure, whether individuals do, or not.

"I've been a soldier and a slave. I've seen my comrades fall in battle or die more slowly under the lash in Africa. I've held them in my arms at the final moment. These were men who saw life as it is, yet they died despairing. No glory, no brave last words, only their eyes, filled with confusion, questioning "Why?" I don't think they were wondering why they were dying, but why they had ever lived"

- Don Quixote

Many will soon be asking that very question ...

The politicians are gutless wonders.....They stand for nothing but special interests...I as many of you realize many of our laws are going to be used against us to get a lot of us killed by terrorists, if this crap does not stop soon. I am guessing we may see mass demonstrations first. I can’t see the American people sitting on their hands for mush longer.....

The problem is, that I think that there will be no outright conflict with Islam. Personally, I believe it will be a tool of the Beast.

The beast was given a mouth to utter proud words and blasphemies and to exercise his authority for forty-two months. He opened his mouth to blaspheme God, and to slander his name and his dwelling place and those who live in heaven. He was given power to make war against the saints and to conquer them. Revelation 13:6-7

It ain't gonna be pretty.

History repeats. The author of Don Quixote experienced a lot and yes this is very relevant statement... unfortuanately.

Probably one of the greatest understatements of all time, but ya, you're right. I feel as though the landing boats of the enemy have reached our beaches, their doors have swung open and they are rushing ashore shocked that there is no resistance. Meanwhile, throngs of American's are standing on the beach heads cheering them on not knowing they are about to be slaughtered ...

Thanks for bringing that up. I knew of the 3 1/2 year time period, but didn’t have the verse right off the top of my head. Also, the Saints who don’t take the mark will face other atrocities. Still, this conflict is very old, and has already been won, we’re just choosing sides and helping others. And we have to stand up, in whatever ways each of us can.

Like a surprise party for a rabid wolf. Except the wolf might not attack everyone. Many nations in Europe are waking up, I can’t fathom why we don’t learn from them.

Despotism, nope.
Socialism, nope.
European Union, nope.
Islamisation, nope.

See you at the wedding feast when it's all said and done.

We agree for the most part, although since I’m not a religious type, I merely see the Islamics as attackers who will have to be repelled.

But I had hoped the fight, government or Islamic, would not occur. I’m coming to the conclusion, though, that there’s no way around the conflict, and, while I’d probably have to join in, that doesn’t mean I have to like it.

But there eventually comes the point where there is no place to back up to, and I think that we’re about there.

I agree. Our backs are to the wall, but few people notice the trapdoor and pool of pirahna circling below. We’re in for a ride.

The numbers are growing, though, and quickly, which is all to the good for the kids of today.

But I think that your right, it’s going to be a very rough ride.
