Disrespecting Foreign Allies

If you're a Brit, your head is spinning. It's not just the personal slights to Prime Minister Gordon Brown -- the ridiculous 25-DVD gift, the five refusals before Brown was granted a one-on-one with The One.

Nor is it just the symbolism of Obama returning the Churchill bust that was in the Oval Office. Query: If it absolutely had to be out of Obama's sight, could it not have been housed somewhere else on U.S. soil rather than ostentatiously repatriated?

"Perhaps it was the State Department official who last year denied there even was a special relationship between the U.S. and Britain, a relationship cultivated by every U.S. president since Franklin Roosevelt.

And then there was Hillary Clinton's astonishing, nearly unreported (in the U.S.) performance in Argentina last month. She called for Britain to negotiate with Argentina over the Falklands."

Could the One’s disdain of the Brits have a link to the vitriolic hatred the Muslims still have against Winston Churchill?

He wrote a book about the Muslims a hundred years ago when a young military man. He laid them out for exactly who and what they are. It is as true today as it was when he wrote it - as it has been for hundreds of years.

We have a candidate, in Florida, for congress who seems to be the only one in the United States today who's aware of ‘why do they hate us?”

Just maybe there's some residual hatred in a man who was raised, during his formative years, in a Muslim household, attending Koran lessons, and saying during the campaign that the Muslim call to prayer - which he then recited in perfect dialect - “is the most beautiful sound on earth”?

We'd best be saying OUR prayers - that America, and Americans, whom he seems also to hate, can survive this onslaught of hate.

He [Churchill] wrote a book about the Muslims a hundred years ago when a young military man. He laid them out for exactly who and what they are. It is as true today as it was when he wrote it - as it has been for hundreds of years.

"How dreadful are the curses which Mohammedanism lays on its votaries! Besides the fanatical frenzy, which is as dangerous in a man as hydrophobia in a dog, there is this fearful fatalistic apathy. The effects are apparent in many countries. Improvident habits, slovenly systems of agriculture, sluggish methods of commerce, and insecurity of property exist wherever the followers of the Prophet rule or live. A degraded sensualism deprives this life of its grace and refinement; the next of its dignity and sanctity. The fact that in Mohammedan law every woman must belong to some man as his absolute property - either as a child, a wife, or a concubine - must delay the final extinction of slavery until the faith of Islam has ceased to be a great power among men. Thousands become the brave and loyal soldiers of the Queen: all know how to die but the influence of the religion paralyses the social development of those who follow it. No stronger retrograde force exists in the world. Far from being moribund, Mohammedanism is a militant and proselytizing faith. It has already spread throughout Central Africa, raising fearless warriors at every step; and were it not that Christianity is sheltered in the strong arms of science, the science against which it had vainly struggled, the civilisation of modern Europe might fall, as fell the civilisation of ancient Rome."

The River War

I'm currently reading Paul Johnson's biography of Churchill-great stuff.

You are probably aware, then, that Churchill has been dropped from England's textbooks - generations now growing up won't even know who he is - the Man who kept us all from having to learn German.

I corresponded with his grandson, a MP, about it. He said he was heartened - and disheartened - that we Americans seemed more upset about it than his countrymen.

Unfreaking believable. He should be front and center in the History books of every land in the world...Foremost example of how evil MUST be fought, no matter the odds...and how, no matter odds, evil CAN be defeated.

If you liked that one - Have you seen this one?

We DESPARATELY need this man in Washington - he'd suffer no idiots, He's take no prisoners.

We need to give him a Scott Brown “Money Bomb” - I can envision him and “Sarah” together - They'd scatter our “enemies within” to the winds. FIX BAYONETS
