Were in the midst of a war, but youd never know it by watching the news or listening to the White House. The JV team keeps piling up bodies and Western leaders continue pledge to stand together as the blood dries. Thats all well and good, but when standing together is the entirety of the strategy, winning has not become the priority.
To win a war, to defeat an enemy, you have to first admit youre in a war and have an enemy. No terrorist attack, no matter the body count or how great the horror, has shaken Western powers into admitting radical Islam is a cancer on humanity and needs to be exterminated. It seems as though nothing will.
What happened in Nice, France, was as evil as it was expected. Where the next attack will be well know soon enough, but it too will be shocking and not surprising. Its coming because each attack leads to a response along the lines of a mild scolding.
If each time you robbed a bank and got caught you faced only a Its wrong that you did that and you shouldnt do that again, why would you not rob banks? Now add in the fanatically insane idea that being killed while robbing banks was the key Heaven, and you get Islamofascism.
Yet Western leaders, from President Obama to French President François Hollande, treat this evil as a distraction; a kid kicking your chair on a long flight. But this is one annoyance that will only grow bigger if not stopped.
Newt Gingrich took a lot of heat for comments he made Thursday night, but he was absolutely correct in his conclusion. I am sick and tired of being told the wealthiest, most powerful civilization in history, all of Western civilization, is helpless in the face of a group of medieval barbarians who, for example, recently burned 20 young women to death, burned them to death, because they wouldnt have sex with them. A group which beheaded recently in the Philippines two Canadian businessmen, and were told to be reasonable, to be passive, to not judge. I just want to tell you tonight, everybody who watches this video, this is the fault of Western elites who lack the guts to do what is right, to do what is necessary, and to tell us the truth, and that starts with Barack Obama, he said.
Unfortunately, in the wake of every wholesale slaughter of innocent human beings, Western elites circle the wagons of denial and lament the prospect of blowback against Muslims that never materializes. Its like lecturing Jews not to be harsh toward Nazis as theyre being rounded up for shipping to death camps. They arent denying reality, theyre ignoring it completely.
We arent without fault in this, we allow politicians to do it. We allow an unambiguous, self-declared terrorist who murdered 49 people to be spun into a homophobic gun-nut by a media we continue to patronize. Were told how were greedy by celebrities we continue to enrich. Were lectured on how were horrible racists by politicians we continue to elect.
We do this to ourselves.
Its not going to change until we change it. Islamofascists will stop murdering people only if theyre dead. We in the civilized world should make them dead. We have the tools, we have right on our side, but those in position to lead do not have the will.
Both ISIS and President Obama want to fundamentally transform the world. Only ISIS is willing to destroy it in the process, but Obama simply ignores its destruction in hopes it comes out his way. Hell use the bodies of their victims to do it when he can, and ignore them when he cant.
Were in a war, whether we want it or not, whether our leaders acknowledge it or not. Its a winnable war, but not if we dont fight it the way wars have been fought and won since time began.
Radical Islam will always exist, but we must fight to ensure it does so only in the heads of a few afraid for their discovery. We have to fight the war against it like a war; with every weapon at our disposal. Our distaste for casualties has not spared lives. It has only prolonged suffering, and it must be overcome.
That means civilian casualties, and not just on our side, as it has been. That means taking them out wherever they are, no matter who they are with. If youre having dinner with a terrorist, you are fair game. Regardless whether theyve engaged in terror, if you sit down with the devil you better be prepared for Hell. And Hell is what we must bring to them.
Newt is right they are barbarians and need to be destroyed. The civilized world has to embrace a little of the incivility which allowed it to defeat evil in the past and thrive if it is to do so again. We must fight like our survival depends on it. Because they will, and it does.
The White House is on the side of the enemy.
It is correct that radical terrorism must be defeated but that should not be the Trump starting point. He needs a less militaristic and less costly idea the world can sign up to willingly, just because it is “right”.
Trump needs one “great idea” at the moment.
President Barack Obama is at war with the American people.
March the armies of the world through Iraq, and Syria.
We can get to Megiddo if we still have time.
Islam has been at war with the US since Thomas Jefferson’s says in early 1800’s.
The US has been at “peace” with Islam since then. The proverbial “head buried in the sand” syndrome.
He doesn't need to convince the world, only 50.1%-in-spite-of-voter-fraud of voters in enough states to get 270 electoral votes.
Any idea that might in fact aid in bringing the present war with jihadis to a successful conclusion is going to be opposed by "the world." America will have to drag "the world" kicking and screaming into any actions necessary to remove the jihadi scourge from the earth.
The author uses the term RADICAL Islam. He STILL isn’t quite there yet.
BRIBERY!!!!!
That is IT—the reason for ALL of this mess.
All of those $$$$$$$$$$ sent to the Mideast for overpriced oil has given them all a huge reservoir of cash with which to bribe ALL OF OUR “LEADERS”—Bush to Merkel to Cameron and beyond.
Truth, honor, justice, and THE WILL OF THE PEOPLE mean NOTHING when it comes to the $$$$$$$$$$.
The fight must begin AT HOME!
What do you mean he isn’t quite there? That arrogant pos occupant of 1600 Pennsylvania Ave and Hillary Rotten Clinton don’t use the term
“We’re in the midst of a war ”
Every day against enemies foreign, enemies domestic, enemies close, enemies closer. Identify the anti-truth, anti-freedom, anti-individual, anti-life enemy.
DEPOPULATE socialists/totalitarians/criminals/collectivists/conmen/deceivers/liars/losers/scumbags and their enablers from the body politic. DEFUND/DISMANTLE/DESTROY (when necessary) socialist/totalitarian collectives, foreign and domestic.
Its easy to
live - free - republic
Until then (forever)...stay healthy, safe, alert, armed.
This one definitely is and has been since January 20, 2009
The use of the made-up word “islamofascists” indicates a person who does not understand the truth.
Islam is a seventh century ideology. Fascism is a twentieth century attempt to reconcile anti-degeneracy and the “scientific socialism” of the nineteenth century.
One of Bush’s flacks invented “islamofascists” to reconcile his phony “religion of peace” with the martial spirit of the 1940s.
The only synergism between Islam and fascism is the simple-minded use of “fascist” as a synonym for “really bad”.
So you want to defeat “radical terrorism”? Are you OK with leaving the regular kind alone?
And why “terrorism”? Did FDR declare war on “torpedo planes”, or on those who sent them?
That’s the thing about muslims, you never know when one will go off and start following the example of his prophet and his instructions in their book.
They may be peaceful right up until they become devout.
Then they become deadly.
To me the problem is Islam. Period. NOT radical Islam.
I understand the question but I do not see your point. Are you ill?
As far as I know torpedo aircraft were not designated as "terrorism" at the time. They were weapons in a declared war; one government against another with uniformed pilots, sailors, and soldiers.
So what is your point if you have one?
Do you suppose it is Islam itself that makes a person insane at some point? Not a certain "brand" of Islam, as in radical Islam. All Muslims do not go insane. So what is the cause of their mental illness?
Could it be the insanity of the Muslim leaders they listen to? The ones that tell them to cling to their bombs and religion and prophet.
Islam is a degraded creed that nurtures hate, deviance and violence. It leads away from salvation. It matters little that not every muslim is actively violent they ALL allow it in their midst.
