Obama On 9/11: 'We Will Never Be At War With Islam'

By ANDREW MALCOLM Posted 09/08/2012

This week, we mark the eleventh anniversary of the September 11th attacks. It’s a time to remember the nearly 3,000 innocent men, women and children we lost, and the families they left behind. It’s a chance to honor the courage of the first responders who risked their lives — on that day, and every day since. And it’s an opportunity to give thanks for our men and women in uniform who have served and sacrificed, sometimes far from home, to keep our country safe.

This anniversary is about them. It’s also a time to reflect on just how far we’ve come as a nation these past eleven years.

On that clear September morning, as America watched the towers fall, and the Pentagon burn, and the wreckage smoldering in a Pennsylvania field, we were filled with questions. Where had the attacks come from, and how would America respond? Would they fundamentally weaken the country we love? Would they change who we are?

The last decade has been a difficult one, but together, we have answered those questions and come back stronger as a nation.

We took the fight to al Qaeda, decimated their leadership, and put them on a path to defeat. And thanks to the courage and skill of our intelligence personnel and armed forces, Osama bin Laden will never threaten America again.

Instead of pulling back from the world, we’ve strengthened our alliances while improving our security here at home. As Americans, we refuse to live in fear. Today, a new tower rises above the New York skyline. And our country is stronger, safer and more respected in the world.

As long as we have a pResident in the White House who, as the first things he accomplished, was to change our National Christmas tree into a “holiday tree”, discard the National Breakfast Prayer for a Ramadan feast, cease attending church ( think they went twice), display his ability to sing part of the islamic call to prayer, and declare it the “most beautiful sound I believe we HAVE a islamic in the white house.

And, this was accomplished before he began on our debt and infastructer.

God help us!

Remember when we were told to watch Fox News on a Sunday night that was going to air something about Obama and we watched but never saw anything! Well, read below and click on the video to see why it got pulled before it could air.

Now we know why Fox News never broadcast it as they had originally planned to. This piece was pulled.

*I encourage you to please send this to everyone on your email list ASAP.*
*Remember all the notices we kept getting to watch Fox News on Sunday at 9PM? What Happened?*

*This is the clip that got pulled due to pressure from the Administration.*
Obama Puts Heat on Fox News to Prevent Sean Hannity from airing this piece.
*This is a video that Sean Hannity of FOX News has been trying to show that we are told has consistently been blocked by the Obama Administration for several weeks. It was a matter of time until the internet picked it up.*
*Watch it now before it gets pulled from the Internet!*

2012 is an important year to remember 9/11 because our younger generations are the most in danger of forgetting what really happened.

Or worse, our younger generations are susceptible to getting a politically correct view of 9/11. Many on the Left have tried to turn 9/11 into a “day of national service” or a celebration of tolerance, instead of remembering that radical jihad attacked this nation because of our western values.

Watch this moving tribute to the heroes of 9/11
composed by a man who lived through it:
(music by Enya)

http://www.frugalsites.net/911/attack/

It is the most viewed video of all,
and is now in the Smithsonian.

Let me make it perfectly clear - I am at war with radical Islamists. When terrorists yell, “Alla Akbar” when they kill us, I'm at war with them and their Alla Akbar guy.

I am suspicious of all of them and I don't want them on a plane with me. That's just the way it is.

Obama says, “..our country is stronger, safer and more respected in the world.”

He is truly delusional.

Fallujah.

Fallujah is one of those “fightin’ words” to me.

Some may not be at war with islam. I am.

It may be passive, and it may, with a islamic uprising become offensive.

But it is war none the less.

I am too; the so called ‘extremists’ who in reality are being true to their diseased faith, and the ‘moderate’ pussies who stand by silently and don’t condemn the extremists. I spit on their beliefs.

The job has not been properly conducted nor completed.

Opportunists have used this crisis to infringe our liberties.

A couple of small A-Bombs would have delivered a stronger message than 11 years of chasing muzzies and 5th Column traitors at a lower cost.

If they wanted to be ‘compassionate’ ‘this time’, a 36-hour notice could have been given to get out of town because it was going to be gone.

The desert would have been full of wandering muzzies. Their own kind then should have looked after them. Instead we nation-build for the thankless scum.

Like others have posted, I am in a hot war with Is-Slime.

No way this is a religion and no way should civilization tolerate the 6th century sand monkeys and their cult of hate.
