calling "come on down.........!!!!!!!!!"
You nailed it!

This past week, I have received many responses from Muslims concerning my two most recent columns: ''Followers of Islam: Can You See the Blood on Your Hands'' and ''Here Comes the Arab/Muslim Outrage.''
In one breath, some the writers would call themselves ''intellectuals'' and then accuse me of being a Jew when I put tough questions to them that they could not answer. They maintained that as an American, I just was not intelligent enough to understand Islam. The mistake these ''intellectuals'' made is believing that I have any intention of ''understanding'' Islam.
It has taken me since 9/11 to realize that civilized humans cannot understand Islam. I am just overjoyed and somewhat relieved that the world is finally waking up in time to see the rabid dog coming its way disguised as Islam.
If Bin Laden has done one good thing in his wretched life, it was to poke a stick in the eye of the world by bringing his radical beliefs forward and urging his followers to commit violent acts. It has taken some time for people to begin taking a look at Muslims in their own areas, but it is happening. The French and the English are beginning to ask themselves, ''When did this happen? When did 6 million Muslims get here and what are they planning to do?''
Approximately 33% of the world is Christian and 20% is Muslim, based on figures for the year 2000. The number of Muslims is growing at an alarming rate. Muslims immigrated to peaceful, mostly Christian countries in Europe where they had large families that were reasonably safe from the ravages of their own strict religious teachings. At least these Muslims were safe until the radical element migrated from the oppressive Middle Eastern countries and began exerting its power over the masses and started menacing the indigenous populations that took Muslims in and welcomed them over the years. The mind-control of the clerics over the average Muslim is frightening and total.
This problem is most notable in the smaller European countries such as the Netherlands and Sweden, where a backlash against Islam is growing because of the strict Islamic laws forbidding mingling with the non-Muslim citizens of a country. In short, Muslims do not fit in. They are not allowed to fit in. The religious leaders lose their total control of the people if those people are allowed to see and experience the freedom that others enjoy. This is why Islam loathes democracy. Democracy steals the power of the Islamic leaders. It gives the people the right to think for themselves and thinking people might start to question their laws. Free people will question the absolute authority and power of the Islamic leaders over every aspect of their lives from birth to often violent death.
These days, it seems that anyone who speaks out against Islam runs the risk of being murdered, as in the case of filmmaker Theo Van Gogh who was shot, stabbed, and then had his throat slit by a radical Muslim in the Netherlands. Van Gogh had made documentaries exposing the brutality directed at women under Islam. Now, mosques and Muslim schools have been burned and the normally peaceful Dutch are considering closing their borders at the very least and perhaps even expelling Muslims from their country. As one Dutch citizen said on a blog, ''This country is a free country but we can’t even speak anymore without wondering if some Muslim will murder us.'' The hate and unrest towards the followers of Islam is growing. It is just a rumble now, but it will get louder as the killing and bombing continues across Europe.
A recent report on Fox News showed the hostility growing between the Swedes and their Muslim population. There are Muslim areas where firefighters and emergency personnel will not enter without a police escort because they will be attacked. Firefighters attempting to put out a fire in a mosque were stoned. The anger between these two forces in Sweden is growing and the most liberal country in Europe is contemplating the same action as the Netherlands. It seems Muslims feel their neighborhoods are not a part of Sweden anymore but theirs, to do with as they see fit. The Swedish government does not see it that way. In those pockets of Islamic rule, poverty is common, unemployment is high, and the clerics foment hate and point fingers of blame on the evil West for Muslims' lot in life.
In France, which has the largest Muslim population in Europe, Islamic clerics openly troll the streets seeking restless young men to indoctrinate and send out to kill for Islam. They weed out the weaklings by having them view videos of the actual torture and beheadings of human beings complete with the screams of pain and all blood and gore of a nightmare. They watch Islamic ''snuff films.'' This is what will be expected of them as ''warriors'' of Allah.
Here in the United States we have a different set of problems. America is just too large for Islam to overpower by reproduction. It has also been impossible to isolate its followers from the American population and American Muslims are far less likely to follow the path of death and destruction. Here, they take a different tact.
Radical Islam is rampant in the prisons, converting the worst of the worst so that when they leave prison they are unleashed on society as pre-programmed, radical Islamic killing machines. On the outside they appear as average Americans which allow them to move about the country unencumbered and overlooked. These killing machines wait for their orders to kill and terrorize, cared for and protected by the radical Islamic element within our own borders.
Muslims live in the past where they had their glory days of conquest and power. They often refer to the Crusades, which ended around 1300, as if they happened last year. I am constantly reminded of Wounded Knee and American slavery. Wounded Knee took place in 1890 and slavery ended in the 1860s.
Muslim writers love to point out the Spanish Inquisition, which was an over-reaction to the conquests of Islam in Spain and was just as much political as religious. The Inquisition officially ended in 1834. What they fail to mention is that it was not only Muslims that were persecuted, but Jews and Protestants as well. Muslims always see themselves as the only victims of injustice in the world. Muslims also fail to mention that the Pope tried to intervene and stop the Inquisition but was unable to exert his power on the political machine.
We Catholics look at this period in our history with shame, not pride. Belief in God or Jesus cannot be forced on someone; it must come from the heart. Forced conversion is not done out of love, but fear. Islam can control one's body, but it cannot control one's thoughts. Converts that are forced will not stay with Islam. They will leave it at the first opportunity.
This is knowledge that has escaped the Islamics. As they condemn the Spanish Inquisition, Islam is doing the same right now in countries such as Sudan. What Muslims are doing in Sudan is far worse than the Spanish Inquisition. Humanitarian groups estimate that since 1983, an estimated 2 million people have died from war and related famine in Sudan at the hands of the Islamic leaders. Anyone refusing to denounce Jesus and accept Islam is executed. Rape is used as a weapon. It seems that all modern-day Islam needs is a coliseum with some lions. Trapped in the past, Muslims call the coalition forces ''crusaders.''
Since the attack on 9/11 here in the United States, the enemy has been exposed. The havens of safety in Afghanistan and Iraq have been taken from the Islamics. In its fury, Islam has made many mistakes. The attacks in Spain and in Bali and murders in the Netherlands and elsewhere have made the world realize that Islam is not just the enemy of America, but the enemy of the entire free world.
Some people were foolishly saying that America deserved to be attacked but when death came to their shores, they were taken aback. They had welcomed Muslims with open arms and this is how they are repaid for their kindness? Some countries are instituting laws that make our Patriot Act pale in comparison. Threatening tapes released by Bin Laden have had the opposite effect.
Instead of cowering, the world is beginning to look Islam in the eye and say, emphatically and collectively: ''NO! This will not be allowed.'' If it was a final crusade that Islam wanted, they have it.

One has to wonder what the 'contingency plans' look like down in FoggyBottom for the day (we know is coming - it has on every continent in the world) when Islam gains the numbers it needs in America to make it's move.
Will the hammer come down on the Muslims for bringing in the Jihad or will it come down on those standing up to repel it?
If the way our gubmint handles the coming Jihad with the same resolve it is now handling the immigration crisis, maybe we can get the Mexicans to fight it for us.
Muslim Ping
agreed.
Wrongo spongo Barbie;...
Democracy and Islam are both MOB RULE..
The only difference is, Islam is controlled by a different MOB.. the Mullahs.. Democracy is controlled Mullahs of a different sort.. Democracy runs on stolen money, Islam runs on BLOOD money.. They both run on money.. Socialism(democracy) and Islam are incestuous siblings..
There are NO "rights"(no freedom) in either, merely privileges granted by government.. In the United States our "rights" are granted by GOD, our government has nothing at all to do with them.. Thats why we have a Constitution that limits our government not the people.. and also why our "rights" are inalienable.. because who could alienate "rights" except a government.. Virtually NO other government that ever existed has "rights"..NONE.. ever..
URPean and the Canadian governments grant privileges to their people.. THEY HAVE NO RIGHTS at all, never did, still don't.. Those that attack GOD in our government are attacking the very source of ALL our "rights".. If you don't agree.... then read the flipping Constitution. Its all in there.. Separation of church and state is really separation of GOD from the Constitution.. killing the source of our freedoms.. ALL OF THEM.. replacing them with privileges by our government which by the way Barbie, is seditious and treasonous behavior..
So.. eat Shiite and die bitch..
Not likely the ACLU would have a cow, and sue everyone!
We are a nation of laws, and being a Muslim is not against the law, ergo nothing can be done about Islam in the USA. I do not see that changing any time soon.
Muslims are still immigrating by the tens of thousands to the USA, Moses are still being build all across the country (huge new one just started in Boston). In short, nothing is being done.
Muslims are still free to murder Christan in Africa, in fact I understand the Bush Administration is siding with the French and Muslims against the Christan in the Ivory Coast.
So all this huffing and Buffing is nothing but hot air.
Deporting islamists does little to stop them. They either cause trouble elsewhere or they come back in later under another alias. Promoting terrorism in any way needs to be made a crime punishable by mandatory death sentence by lethal injection of hog lard.
It IS going to get worse before it gets better, both here and in Europe.
Political correctness will not "go gentle into that good night," and some will keep singing feel-good folk songs right up until the enemy cuts their throats.
Still, I stand behind what I posted here some three years ago: Another 9/11-scale attack on America will trigger an enormous backlash, at which time xenophobia will no longer be a pejorative.
And there'll be little comfort in the knowledge that you saw it coming.
I agree with you 100%. Islam is not a religion. The problem is that we are called radical, murder-inciting barbarians for wanting to protect our civilization from the threat of islam.
We must force our legislators to enact laws declaring islam to be an illegal terrorist organization. This may need to start at the state level before it can work it's way up to Congress. If nothing is done by the government to irradicate islam, militias will have to take care of the problem.
"I don't know much about Islam but shouldn't we be going after the perverted version, the "evil" strain, rather than all of the religion?"
There is no separation of "perverted islam" from islam as a whole. They pray in the same mosques, they listen to the same clerics, they attend the same schools, they support charities that fund terrorism, they teach hatred of all that is not muslim, they will defend any muslim regardless of how many innocent people they have murdered, they all follow the same koran which tells them to conquer the world by forced submission and murder. Open your f'ing good eye to the facts about islam. It is not a religion but rather a cult of terrorists.
"...and I am deadly, utterly serious about my tagline"
Me, also!
Amen. And Amen!
BTTT
calling "come on down.........!!!!!!!!!"
You nailed it!
"One has to wonder what the 'contingency plans' look like down in FoggyBottom"
One has to have their own contingency plans. We can not depend on our government to protect us agains islam. They do more to protect islam than they do to protect western civilization from the scourge of islam.
Is this true??
I think this is another example of "strategery."
And, d*mned smart, IMO.
But not all religions believe in a just and caring God. It is a really an American belief that all "religions" are "good" and want to do good things, are all just different paths to God. The trouble is, it isn't true. A "religion" is what you think about the fundamental nature of the universe: is it controlled by a "God" or a force, is that "God" or force good or bad, is it a person, etc etc etc. Human sacrifice has a very long history, so do death cults, but the US (hopefully!) isn't going to allow Aztec worship of Kali death cults to openly practice (but with the ACLU, who knows?) Not all religions think there is a personal God, many religions don't think God is good, many other religions don't believe in being good to those outside their own religion, etc etc etc.
Because of the way Islam defines God and because of what they believe is owed God, you cannot seperate out government from religion, if it isn't Sharia law it isn't legitimate in their eyes. Even in what is considered Islam's "golden age", it was golden precicesly in that Islam was not taken seriously, and even then Christians and Jews were considered "dhimmi", an underclass that had to pay special taxes and had less access to courts and justice than Muslims. American culture is particularly poorly equipped to deal with a religion that does not seperate things into a "secular - spiritual" mindset.
A great website that talks about Islam's real history is Bat Ye'or's site, there are links to her lectures and articles going into detail on all this.
I'll file that under "good news." The tide is turning as Islam is unveiled. Thanks.
