The Obama Doctrine: Bringing Us Into Submission
Townhall.com ^ | 7/28/2008 | Scott Ott

Posted on 07/28/2008 4:22:39 PM PDT by asksimon

Every time you hear Sen. Barack Obama say that Afghanistan is the central front in the war against terror, you should cringe, and then stock up on imperishable food, gold coin, jerry cans of diesel, and ammo...lots of ammo.

The Democrat presidential nominee has yet to comprehend the nature of the enemy. Frankly, most Republicans are also afraid to call it what it is.

We're not at war against terror. Terrorism is merely a set of tactics used by those who lack the muscle to wage conventional war. Terrorism consists primarily of spectacular acts of cowardice designed to scare women, children and other non-combatants in order to intimidate governments into submission. We're not at war against terror.

We're not even at war against al-Qaeda -- that's just a particular brand name of a product that's distributed worldwide under dozens of labels but contains the same active ingredient. We're at war with people who cling to an ideology that is nothing less than Satanic. Even if you think that Satan is no more than an abstract concept created to represent evil in the human heart, you must know that this wickedness has taken millions captive. It has done so mainly through a particular channel -- Islam -- a word which, appropriately, means 'submission'.

No satire here! Islam is what we are at war with!

And, come January, 2009, we just might have a Chief Executive to add to our list of adversaries.

No, no satire. Just cold hard reality. I wonder what this maniac will do to this nation in four years, and keep being drawn to the conclusion that a communist U.S.A. isn’t what I have in mind for my kids. Is there a civil war in the works?

I'll do what I can. I'm almost as afraid of the apathy of this country, as I am Obama. Scary, scary!

"We're a military family! I'm scared spit less."
I'm postponing fear with preparation. Intimidation by the opponent is simply that. Kind of like the psychout before the boxing match.
I think Obama's going to light a fuse that will make us go BOOM!

While I have read many postings on how we ‘think’ islam is not compatible with our political structure here is an islamic point of view the tells muslims it is not. Again I am faced with the thought that if a religion is in direct violation of the Constitutional Rights of the people does it hold the Right as a religion?

Bush failed to define our enemy because of our PCness. He failed because our culture tolerates many religions. What he failed to instruct us on was how islamics define religion.

And this is Bush’s Fault. A major failure in leadership.

I have to agree. What groups like CAIR represent is nothing less than a replacement of our societies structure with Sharia law.
I tend to view this as a usurpation of our rights under law; and as such definitely incompatible with our rights granted by God.
Such an affront to my liberty has to be matched in equal measure by my ability to defend my liberty.
As opposition, radical Islam is not yet in this country with force, thanks to our fighting men taking the war to them, however there methods are a bit more deviant, by trying to corrupt our infrastructure.
I'm prepared to fight them in the arena of words, but would have no regrets if it moved to a more "confrontational" venue.
My personally belief is that Ospama is a Nation of Islam front, and represents an Organization hostile to my nation, friends, and family.

“We're a military family! I'm scared spit less.”

I've said before that if B. Hussein Obama becomes “Commander in Chief” a lot of folks (officers and enlisted), in the military are going to vote with their feet and leave the service at the ends of their tours.

While I do believe Bush to be culpable. The defense of our liberties places the blame squarely on our shoulders. That is our duty foremost.
Whenever I get angry at the Pres. I just remind myself that Algore was the alternative for 911.
Ignorance of the opposition isn't Bush's fault. There is enough information on the dangers inherent in Islam, that info. has been widely disseminated for centuries.
I wish Bush had stood firmly, but it is what it is. What will we do with the responsibilities we have? That is a valid question for conservatives today.

I wish someone would explain to me what George Soros really wants. What does he think would happen to him under a Caliphate?

I think Islamic leaders would probably like to get their hands on his cash. Georgie porgie knows how to grease palms to get his way. He’ll surely find a way to exist in the NWO.

Yep!

Our comments may well get us a visit from the FBI.

Now ask me if, at my age, I really give a ****!

Folks we’re witnessing the future happening before our eyes. Because of our political correctness, and our fear of stepping on toes we will become disabled easily by our enemy, and yes folks it is Islam.

I'll bite, do you give a ****? At least a nice court case would give me an opportunity to vent. But alas, when the government goes after it's lawful citizenry, then there's a problem.
But just in case they do monitor me, I'd like to take this opportunity to say, thanks for keeping Islam off our backs since 9-11. I'll keep the coffee on.
Of course if they want to come over they have to leave with a Bible track, It's kind of a rule at my house.

Other than that, I’ll fight Islam to my dying breath because of what they’ve done to my loved ones and fellow country men. Even McCain said he’d fight to the gates of hell to get Osama.
If the FBI is led by the nose by Islamists, then heaven help us.
I’d like to think there are some who have a love for country.
