You can’t say that...it’s hate speech, Hillary told me.

Just one more cesspool on the African continent. However, my all means, let's you and me continue to send our hard earned dollars to that sinkhole.

I just had a discussion tonight about what would be best for these failing African nations. We agreed, just stop sending them our dollars and let them sink or swim.

Rhodesia/Zimbabwe turned from the breadbasket of Africa into a starving nation; Sudan is a horrific mess; Chad is getting as bad; Nigeria has always been that way; South Africa hasn't been much better after kicking the whites out; Ghana sucks; Somalia is still a cluster-frig. Shall I go on? Who did I miss?

Africa sucks. But yet, you and I continue to send our billions of tax dollars there to support their failings. Screw 'em. Get your shit together and learn to become productive and self-sufficeint or succumb to Darwinism.

Hey Africa, don't take one more dollar from me if you can't figure out how to use it to build.

According to a recent statement (threat) by Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR), it won't be long before America is subjected to this fake religion.

Gee... you think electing any chicken sh*t Democrat or RINO like John McCain might speed up the process?

This is a very frightening time in America. Hitlery and Mclame are the same politically speaking. All others will fall aside. The supreme court is reviewing the 2nd amendment soon, political correctness and environmentalism rule the day. The founding fathers must be shedding a tear asking what happened.

From adopting Sharia (2000)...(to enforcing sharia now)...here...

Kano is a mostly-Muslim city of about 4 million in northern Nigeria. Sabon Gari is the part of the city where the small minority of Christians live. But I’m afraid they won’t be alive for long.

But I'm afraid they won't be alive for long.

And like in Darfur, their deaths might become a source of concern for liberals and hollywood actors, but it will be politically incorrect to say by whose hands.

Islam is no more a religion than Nazism. It is a violent political ideology represented with its own set of laws that muslims believe must be strictly adhered to by muslims and non muslims. The following article confirms this thread.

Islamic Scholar Warns U.S. of 'Two-Faced' Muslims

[iopscusa]

From Wiki, Christians alone comprise about 1% of the population, I wonder how many Christians have left since 2000?

They know ... their response was to lock and load ... ours is to ....................... ???

[PubliusMM]

There you have it, folks... ISLAM, bringing you the best of the Seventh Century for over 1400 years.

It’s time to eradicate this cult from the face of the earth.

“carried dangerous weapons including bows, arrows, sticks and cutlass.”

Sounds like someone should take them out before they graduate to more powerful weapons.

Lock and Load.

I just had a discussion tonight about what would be best for these failing African nations. We agreed, just stop sending them our dollars and let them sink or swim.

Too bad it is not that simple. These failing nations do not exist in a vacuum, they have neighbors. For the most part these failing nations boarder nations that are barely making it themselves and these bordering nations do not necessarily have historically friendly relations with each other.

The citizens of the failing nations just don’t sit down and starve. If they can they will leave their hell hole and flee to a neighboring country in the hope of a better life. (Mexicans anybody).

The influx of poor, uneducated and starving people may destabilize those neighboring nations.

The leaders and people of these neighboring nations tend to not want these poor depressed refugees coming to their countries depressing their wages and defecating in their streets. Consequently at best these people are herded in to refugee camps where they are given the minimum staples to keep them healthy. At worst they are slaughtered as they cross the boarder.

Just sending money or food is not the answer but doing nothing is a recipe for creating more Somalia type countries.

But one thing we can not afford to do is let the UN administer a single penny of the money we allocate of this problem. That is a recipe for failure and corruption.

Citing a human righta group called GlobalSecurity.org

In the 11 Northern states of Nigeria that have introduced the Islamic system of law, the Sharia, sectarian clashes between Muslims and Christians have resulted in many deaths, and some churches have been burned. More than 30,000 Christians were displaced from their homes Kano, the largest city in northern Nigeria.

Sharia Law may be an improvement for some parts of Africa?
