Ron Paul Does Jane Fonda

The Iranian Mullahcracy absolutely loves Ron Paul, and for Iran’s propaganda war against the West – Ron Paul is a beloved ally of the Islamofascists in Tehran.

As I have consistently noted about Ron Paul, the enemies of the USA love to interview and quote him for their propaganda purposes against this country and the West of whom they seek to either destroy or subjugate to Sharia Law.

One of the major key reasons for my long opposition to this usurper-Republican running for the presidency for the 3rd time, is his absolutely insane and moronic positions regarding foreign policy, notwithstanding his anti-Jew conspiratorialist agenda and past racism that only now, some of his own former associates are beginning to bring to the public’s attention.

As further evidence of what I consider to be Jane Fona-esque treason, whether willful or by clueless idiocy, Ron Paul provides the enemies of the United States, his own anti-American platform and anti-semitic positions to arm themselves with ammunition to wage their own war against the infidel Great and Little Satan.

Ron Paul stated he would have never gone to war against the Nazis, so we can assume he would also not dare raise a hand against the Islamofascist’s in Iran either.  In fact, the Jihadist regime play video of Ron Paul justifying their “right” to make and have nuclear weapons.  This, after Ahmadinejad stated Iran had a right to USE nuclear weapons and promising Israel will be ‘wiped off the map’.  A more dangerous and clueless nut job cannot be found, excepting only that Hussein Obama II runs a close second to Paul’s dangerous insanity.

The enemies of America and the West have an ally in Ron Paul, and the current occupant of the White House.  For the Jihadists, their future seems bright.  God help us all, as blinding brightness may one day visit our cities if either of these two clowns continue in the chair at 1600 Pennsylvania.

Tehran TV Loves Ron Paul

The Iranian regime’s English language propaganda channel, PressTV, has discovered a new American idol: presidential contender Rep. Ron Paul.

PressTV has stepped up its coverage of Paul’s campaign to win the Republican presidential nomination in recent weeks, featuring hisanti-Israel rants, his claim that sanctions against Iran are “acts of war,” his approval of Iran’s nuclear ambitions, and much more.

The Iranian government channel portrays Ron Paul as an American hero, and brings on conspiracy theorists masquerading as political “analysts” to laud him for  “challenging the American establishment” and the “corporate neo-conservative Zionist consensus,” that cabal of Jews, banksters, and Reagan Democrats who in Tehran’s eyes (and in the eyes of these Ron Paul supporters) run the world.

It’s a script taken almost word-for-word from the infamous anti-Semitic forgery,The Protocols of the Elders of Zion.

Headlining one montage of Ron Paul sound bites denouncing U.S. support for Israel, PressTV reveals that President Obama has issued a “Ron Paul ‘kill order.’

This dramatic claim was “revealed” in a “secret letter sent to Prime Minister Putin by Japanese Prime Minister Yoshihiko Noda” released to the press by the Russian Federal Security Service, better known during Cold War days for wanton fabrications and disinformation campaigns.

The purported letter “contains a warning that United States President Barack Obama has issued an executive-level ‘kill order’ against U.S. Congressman Ron Paul over fears this charismatic politician, who many believe could capture the Republican Presidential 2012 nomination, is about to expose to all Americans what can only be described as the largest mass theft in human history,” PressTV breathlessly explains.

Of course, “‘kill order’ is a metaphor for silencing down Congressman Ron Paul in the mass media as if he doesn’t exist,” the network hastens to add.

No contemporary U.S. political leader has been so in sync with Tehran as Ron Paul. Here are just a few of the recent Ron Paul sound bites on Iran and U.S. policy toward Iran prominently featured by PressTV:

“Just think of how many nuclear weapons surround Iran. The Chinese are there, the Indians are there, the Pakistanis are there, the Israelis are there, the United States is there. All these countries—China has nuclear weapons! Wouldn’t it be natural that they might want a weapon? Internationally, they’d be given more respect… They have no evidence that they are working on a weapon. “Paul blasts US policy on Iran, Aug. 12, 2011.

“I think we’re looking for trouble because we put these horrendous sanctions on Iran… Sanctions against Iran are definite steps toward a US attack.” “Iran sanctions ‘acts of war’: Ron Paul,” Dec. 31, 2011; “Ron Paul raps US hostility toward Iran,” Jan. 7, 2012.

“Iran’s leader, Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, had never mentioned any intention of wiping Israel off the map.” Quick Facts: Ron Paul on US Foreign Policy, Dec. 24, 2011.

“Iran is not a physical threat to us. They do not have capabilities. The stories you might hear about them being on the verge of a nuclear weapon is not true by our CIA and by the United Nations. They are not on the verge of it.” Quick Facts: Ron Paul on US Foreign Policy, Dec. 24, 2011.

“Who are they [Iran] going to bomb? If they had one or two bombs, they are going to bomb Israel? Israel has 300 of them! And our submarines all around there passing and everything else.” Quick Facts: Ron Paul on US Foreign Policy, Dec. 24, 2011.

“I think they’re acting in self-defense… That is a gross distortion of this debate that they’re on the verge of a nuclear weapon.” Ron Paul defends his anti-war policies, Dec. 16, 2011

“At least our leaders and Reagan talked to the Soviets. What is so terribly bad about this? Countries you put sanctions on, you are more likely to fight them. I say a policy of peace is free trade, stay out of their internal business. Do not get involved in these wars and bring our troops home.” Ron Paul blasts US policy on Iran, Aug. 12, 2011

A Google search of PressTV.com—their U.S. website—returned 349 stories about Ron Paul, the overwhelming majority of them from this past year. The network’s Iranian website, PressTV.ir, had more than 1,020 stories featuring Ron Paul.

A similar search of the U.S. website revealed significantly lower numbers for the other GOP candidates, with 242 hits for Mitt Romney, 211 for Newt Gingrich, 119 for Rick Santorum, 103 for Rick Perry, and 95 for Michele Bachmann.

By comparison, a Google search of “Hitler” got 509 hits on PressTV.com, while a search for “Barack Obama” got 3,600.

PressTV’s passion for Ron Paul also can be seen in their choice of headlines.

Paul’s anti-war call attracts GOP ears

Ron Paul ‘challenges US establishment’

Ron Paul’s surge

Iowa voters bring anti-war message into the mainstream

Ron Paul: “We don’t need Patriot Act”

Ron Paul holding Iowa lead in new PPP poll

This last entry publicizes a robo-call survey by Democratic Party polling outfit Public Policy Polling, which touts its “highly accurate polling across the country”on its website. Of course, that particular poll, conducted just days before the Iowa caucuses, was dramatically off, given that Ron Paul placed third after Romney and Santorum essentially tied for first.

By comparison, PressTV coverage of Newt Gingrich is almost  exclusively negative, with headlines such as these:

Newt Gingrich calls Mitt Romney “a liar”

Newt Gingrich: History of anti-Islam slurs

Watchdog files FEC complaint against Newt Gingrich

Occupy protesters heckle Newt Gingrich at Iowa event

Most of the other GOP candidates are given the Gingrich treatment by PressTV editors. Rick Santorum gets blasted for declaring “there is no Palestine,” Michele Bachmann for saying she would “bomb Iran,” and Perry for just about everything, most recently his debate pledge to “reinvade Iraq.”

This autumn, before the Republican field thinned out, PressTV aired an unsigned commentary titled “Romney, Cain or Perry nomination an absolute disaster for America” that featured a viciously satirical Mitt Romney flip-flopper video—two weeks before the Obama campaign released their own version!

In recent weeks, however, their coverage of Romney has become more factual and less charged, perhaps because Iran’s leaders expect him to win the GOP nomination and possibly become president of the United States.

While PressTV gives some coverage to economic issues—especially any factoid suggesting that poverty is on the rise in the United States—it frequently highlights Ron Paul’s refusal to see the Islamic regime in Iran as a potential threat, his pledge to bring American troops home from overseas, and especially his anti-Israel stance.

PressTV editors introduce a montage of Ron Paul debate clips with the ominous onscreen title, “Do you know why the Israel lobby and Neocons hate US Congressman Ron Paul?”

“We’ve been at war in Iran a lot longer than 1979. We started it in 1953, when we sent in a coup and installed the Shah in a coup, and the blowback’s been going on ever since 1979 because we just plain don’t mind our own business. That’s the problem,” Paul says in one of these clips.

“We don’t even have a treaty with Israel. Why do we have this automatic commitment that we’re going to send our kids and our money endlessly?” he says in another.

Anti-Israel theme:

The Tehran regime owns PressTV and controls its content, so its emphasis on finding politicians and “experts” who oppose any form of pressure on Iran is understandable. Some readers, however, may find its proclivity for airing anti-Semitic and anti-Israel rants more troublesome.

Many of Ron Paul’s talking points get repeated by the pro-Tehran conspiracy theorists who populate the PressTV airwaves. In the oxygen-free reaches they appear to inhabit, Ron Paul would become the next president of the United States if only the “Zionist lobby” would let him win.

“Paul is pulling around second in Iowa and is being considered a very serious contender by many,” a PressTV anchorwoman says. Then in all seriousness, she asks Mark Dankof, a self-declared political analyst, “Will the Zionist lobby let him win?”

Dankof, who is a frequent guest on PressTV shows, explains that Ron Paul will lose because of the Jews. “If Paul should be successful early on in a couple of primaries or a couple of caucuses then I think the shrill voices in the Israeli-controlled American media will begin to become more aggressive in attacking him,” he says. Zionist lobbies demonizing Ron Paul, Dec. 3, 2011

PressTV touts Dankof as a “former U.S. Senate candidate,” a “political commentator,” or “political analyst” as a way of plumping his resumé. The subterfuge is typical, and Dankof is reliably pro-Tehran, pro-Ron Paul and anti-American—lumping Barack Obama in the same basket as George W. Bush.

But what about his credential as a former U.S. Senate candidate? Dankof claims on his website that he was the “nominated candidate of the Constitution party” in Delaware in 2000. It turns out, however, that the Constitution Party never held a formal nominating process or a party primary, and that Dankof essentially nominated himself to run in that year’s U.S. Senate race.

“Anybody can be a candidate just by filing the forms,” said Howard Phillips, Conservative Party founder and long-time standard bearer. “Mark was never anointed by the Constitution Party; he decided to run by himself.”

Dankof is typical of the type of rabidly anti-Israel, borderline anti-Semitic commentators PressTV relies on. Other regulars include the likes of Philip Giraldi, an ex-CIA officer who regularly denounces Israeli policies as “manifestly evil;” Paul Sheldon Foote, who promotes Holocaust deniers; and a bevy of left-wing, “anti-war” bloggers and 9/11 “truthers.”

Nisa Islam Mohammad, a staff writer for the Nation of Islam’s Final Call newspaper and a member of the Washington Association of Black Journalists, devoted an entire 25-minute segment of her “American Dream” magazine show to the Zionist lobby effort to “destroy” Ron Paul.

“Texas Congressman Ron Paul is campaigning to become the president of America,” she starts off. “But you might not know that if you just watch mainstream media. Why is he omitted? Why wasn’t he invited to the Republican Jewish Coalition’s forum for presidential candidates?”

The answers, of course, can be found in the title of her show. Why Israel lobby and neocons hate Ron Paul, Dec. 26, 2011

To Tehran’s conspiracy-minded political leaders, Ron Paul is a natural ally.

Rant Of The Week

A Post Iowa Caucus in-your-face celebration

This was so good, it has to be shared.  H/T and kudos to Alan Levy and the Conservative patriots at FReepers!

Thanks for making my morning jovial!

HEY RINOs AND PAULTARDS! IN YOUR FACE, DORKS!

Alan Levy

 

I must say, the 2012 Iowa Caucus was magnificent.

ABSOLUTELY magnificent.

You see, the good guys won for a change.

Mitt Commie failed and Jew hater Ron Paul was delivered a staggering defeat.

Now, before we get started, let’s get a few things clear. Number one, I don’t shill for candidates. I have my favorite candidate and you have yours. In this column, I will never tell you who to vote for. I will always tell you who I think is pond scum (like Mitt Commie, like former Obama syocphant Jon Huntsman, and last, and certainly least, Stormfront candidate Ron Paul), but I will never tell you who to vote for. (You’re an adult, I trust you’ll act accordingly.) Number two, I am fully aware that the Iowa Caucus is not that big of a deal. There’s no need to remind me of that. (If you don’t believe me, ask President Huckabee.)

The failure of Mitt Commie was mind boggling. Here was a guy with a campaign budget that was bigger than the GDP of El Salvador, who had been campaigning since John McLame’s whimpering defeat in 2008, and had a cable news station (FNC, aka the Fox Neocon Channel) in the tank for him, and has a super PAC to do his hatchet work for him…….and yet……..he barely beat Rick Santorum by 8 votes. Yep, you read that right, 8 measly votes. (It should be noted, that until very recently, Rick Santorum’s campaign was being ignored by everyone not named Mark Levin and had 68 cents and pocket lint to its name.) Even uglier for Mitt Commie was the fact that he was unable to drive a wooden stake into the heart of nemesis Newt Gingrich’s campaign. Despite being carpet bombed by Romney’s PAC operatives and Establishment hacks, Gingrich placed a respectable fourth and lived to fight another day. In other words—Mitt Commie choked.

Meanwhile, in Red Skull Ron Paul’s Fourth Reich, the Paultards are tickled Code Pinko.(Either that, or they’re stoned out of their minds yet again.) They think their Fuhrer has won a great victory over the “neocon bankster Zionist war mongers” by placing third. In actuality, this is a resounding, Stalingrad-like defeat for Herr Doktor. See, Iowa laws allow anyone to change their party affiliation at the door of any caucus and vote. So in theory, every liberaltarian, every Green, every 9/11 Truther, every Neo-Nazi, every malcontent, and every so-called “independent” in the state of Iowa could have showed up and dragged the Surrender Monkey’s carcass across the finish line. But they didn’t. Despite the “money bombs”, the “spamming”, the “trolling”, making pests of themselves on talk radio shows, and other Brownshirt-like behavior, RuPaul (H/T: Mark Levin) and his flunkies have failed and failed big time. Third place in a contest whose rules favor you is a complete and utter joke, much like saying Herr Doktor is a Conservative.

Let me repeat: No, I’m not shilling for anyone (as of yet, I’m still undecided) and yes, I know Iowa’s not that big of a deal. However, a win’s a win and I’ll take ’em any way I can get ’em. If you don’t win, you can’t keep it classy and say things like this:

HEY RINOs AND PAULTARDS! IN YOUR FACE, DORKS!

Anyone But Ron Paul

While Obama is a threat to our domestic liberties, Ron Paul’s non-interventionist views are beyond dangerous.  They are suicidal.

Perhaps it’s fitting to note what the Second President of the United States said about Democracies in view of Ron Paul’s standing in the polls:

“There is never a democracy that did not commit suicide”. – John Adams

Of course spending ourselves into oblivion with welfare programs that grow the tyrannical state was most likely the intent of the warning Adam’s gave, Ron Paul would make national suicide a literal application by prostrating us before our enemies and blaming ourselves for any acts of war waged on us by expanding militant Islam.

In a companion piece to what I wrote in yesterday’s blog, Gary Bauer nails what we true Conservatives understand about Ron Paul, and his insane and dangerous views in a very hostile world that he pretends does not exist unless provoked first by America. And as Gary Bauer notes, Ron Paul is far more radical than even Obama is on matters of security for this nation.  In fact, much of Paul’s lambasting of Conservatives is right out of the Obama playbook.  No wonder so many fringe Leftists support Ron Paul.

If it’s down to Obama and Ron Paul, national suicide would seem a certainty in our future.

Look for the Ronulan Mob Zombie Hordes to descend in vain attempts to justify their vaunted savior’s lunatic positions.  They will most likely start by declaring Bauer a “NeoCon” and dismiss everything out of hand.  Such as it has been since 2007.

 

Anyone But Ron Paul for President

Gary Bauer

Some of the most indelible images from September 11, 2001, are of video footage of cheering Muslim crowds in the streets of Ramallah and East Jerusalem as news of the attacks swept across the Middle East.

Is there any doubt that if Ron Paul is elected President, his inauguration will elicit similar jubilation in the cities of America’s worst enemies?

Words such as “noninterventionist” and “isolationist” have been used to describe Paul’s foreign policy views.  A more apt word is “dangerous.”

I like the Texas congressman’s opposition to Big Government.  But his foreign policy and national security views are so dangerous that they should disqualify him for the presidency.

It is tempted to compare Paul’s foreign policy views to those of President Obama.  Both seem to enjoy stressing America’s sins, real and imagined, and both naively believe a little diplomacy is all that’s needed to appease rogue regimes such as Iran.

Like Obama, Paul wants terrorists caught in the U.S. to be treated not as enemy combatants but as common criminals.  Also like Obama, Paul supported the building of a mosque near Ground Zero in New York City, insisting that opposition to its construction was “all about hate and Islamophobia.”

But Paul’s foreign policy views are much more radical than Obama’s.  Paul disapproves of Obama’s drone strikes on terrorists, and would shutter U.S. military bases abroad.  Paul says he would not have ordered the killing of Osama bin Laden.  You’d be hard-pressed to find one in a million Americans who would agree with that.

Paul’s foreign policy views would stand out even in a field of the most liberal Democrats. In fact, Ohio Rep. Dennis Kucinich, perhaps the most left-wing presidential candidate ever, has said he and Paul “agree tremendously on international policy.”  Paul says he’d consider naming Kucinich to his Cabinet—perhaps as head of a newly formed “Department of Peace.”

But Paul’s views of America and its place in the world go beyond the liberal appeasement of Obama or Kucinich.  In fact, in their sheer conspiratorial lunacy, they align more closely with Obama’s former pastor and mentor, the Rev. Jeremiah Wright.

Consider both Wright’s and Paul’s reaction to 9/11.  Wright described the attacks as “America’s chickens coming home to roost,” and said of America’s government, “We’re the same as al-Qaeda.”

Paul has said that America’s foreign policy was a “major contributing factor” to the attacks, and he allegedly wanted to vote against authorizing war in Afghanistan.  Both Wright and Paul are conspiracy theorists.  According to a former longtime aide, Paul suggested that the attacks may have been coordinated by the CIA or that the Bush administration knew about the attacks ahead of time.  Paul has claimed that 9/11 caused “glee in the administration because now we can invade Iraq.”  He has also suggested that Mossad, the Israeli intelligence service, was responsible for the 1993 World Trade Center bombing.

Wright has claimed that the U.S. government manufactured the AIDS virus to kill black people.  And Paul has allegedly written that the government is “lying” about the threat of AIDS.

Both Wright and Paul are radically anti-Israel.  Wright has called the state of Israel “illegal” and “genocidal.”  He gave a lifetime achievement award to radical Nation of Islam leader Louis Farrakhan, an anti-Semite who Wright said “truly epitomized greatness.”

According to his former aide, Paul “wishes the Israeli state did not exist at all.”  The ex-adviser said Paul “sides with the Palestinians, and supports their calls for the abolishment of the Jewish state, and the return of Israel, all of it, to the Arabs.”

Paul has also said he would not have intervened in World War II if Japan hadn’t attacked the U.S., even against Hitler’s Germany to prevent the Holocaust.  This, he insists, somehow fits into a foreign policy based on the Golden Rule.

Paul rarely criticizes President Obama, but has a disturbing tendency to slander his country and fellow Republicans.  He has charged that America has declared “war on 1.2 billion Muslims,” and accused Michele Bachmann of hating Muslims and Rick Santorum of hating gays.  This extremist does the conservative cause an injustice by playing into the Left’s worst false stereotypes of Republicans.  No wonder Paul derives much of his support from the fringe Left.

Many Paulites say they support him for his economic policy views, while dismissing his foreign policy extremism.  But they should realize that in the highly improbable case that Paul becomes President, he would, as Commander-in-chief, have much power to enact his national security agenda and much less influence over economic policy.

By regularly casting America as the world’s villain and by advocating the abandonment of our alliances and the abdication of our duties around the world, a Ron Paul presidency would cheer our enemies, demoralize our friends and guarantee a decline in our national security.

Ron Paul: Deliberately Misleading And Far More Dangerous To America’s Security Than Obama

Ron Paul runs political ads asking “How would we feel if China had bases in Texas?” as a pretext to espouse his Isolationist platform.  His ads are dangerously misleading.

Jimmy Carter’s appeasement of Ayatollah Rullah Khomeni that led to the Islamic takeover of Iran and thus erasing an ally and creating an eternal enemy may end up being mild compared to the lunacy and foreign policy ideas of Ron Paul.

The mob zombie hordes of Neo-Con-stitutionalists, quasi Leftists and anti-war pacifists gorge on the slabs of blame-America first and pro-Islamist Apologetics, Ron Paul tosses their way.  In the end, Jimmy Carter will seem to be a lion and a Goliath in comparison to Ron Paul should by some incredible miracle, he ever win the office he is seeking for the third time.  In fact, Ron Paul may be more detrimental to our national security than even Dear Leader Obama.

After all, Ron Paul asserts that he strenuously does not believe the United States had any business getting involved in fighting Hitler in WWII. He expressed to longtime aide Eric Dondero countless times, that ‘saving the Jews,’ was absolutely none of our(America’s) business and asserts when pressed, that “FDR knew about the attacks of Pearl Harbor weeks before hand, and that WWII was just ‘blowback,’ for Woodrow Wilson’s foreign policy errors, and such. ”

This is consistent with Ron Paul’s current insanity in the face of the global rise of militant Islam and the 9-11 Jihad attacks.  As with blaming FDR with knowing in advance the Pearl Harbor attack, Ron Paul asserts the crackpot Alex Jones/Truther view that G.W. Bush knew of the 9-11 attacks in advance, and was “gleeful” for the loss of 3,000 lives as a pretext to invade Iraq.  It’s bad enough Ron Paul badmouths America on a routine basis, it’s even worse (and I say treasonous) when he goes on enemy State television, to denounce America and our foreign policy so it can be used by the Islamofascists in Iran a justification propaganda to prepare and to wage war on “the Great and little Satan”.

PressTV in Iran had a field day with the excerpts from this interview, emboldening the Islamist regime’s covert war against American troops in Iraq and Afghanistan.

What I do not know is, if Ron Paul was a clueless idiot to allow himself to be used by an enemy for their purposes against us; or if he willingly gave aid and comfort to the Ahmadinejad regime and his mullahs with his views that are played in Iran as evidence to wage war on the United States and our allies. In either case, this 2009 interview alone is evidence that Ron Paul is actually more dangerous to our national security than even Obama’s pandering to Marxist states.

Ron Paul, as accused – is a militant Pacifist and ardent Isolationist.  His own aide confirmed that fact.  His Mob Zombie Hordes play with his words to insist he is a Constitutionalist, when he is nothing of the sort.  He is an espoused Libertarian, and always had been, running on the Republican ticket so as to deceive what he really is,  because it is the only way he can win elections.

To those who claim Ron Paul is simply a strict non-interventionist,  Ron Paul is the lunatic who expressed to his staffers after the 9-11 attacks, that he opposed any and all military retaliation.  According to his former aide, Paul “expressed no sympathies whatsoever for those who died on 9/11, and pretty much forbade us staffers from engaging in any sort of memorial expressions, or openly asserting pro-military statements in support of the Bush administration.”

It’s not about being non-interventionist with Ron Paul – it’s about his being horrifyingly naive, clueless and ignorant of the real world outside of what he, himself thinks motivates people.

I continue to be baffled why the GOP leadership continues to allow this Libertarian-kook Ron Paul to run as a member of their party, because his presence and purpose seems to be to divide the Conservative vote, and throw the election back to Obama in 2012.  He wants the office too badly, and is vaunted as a political savior by too many clueless idiots who simply think Ron Paul will “tear it all down”, which is what they desperately want.

Coach Kevin Collins notes the dangerous deception of Ron Paul’s ads, wondering aloud how the Islamist enemies will use this ad for their purposes.  Well coach, this is not the first rodeo for Ron Paul’s interviews to be used by our Jihadist enemies.  It is yet another consistent fact of Ron Paul’s unfitness to hold public office.

BY COACH COLLINS, ON JANUARY 1ST, 2012

It is hard to say who, other than our Islamist enemies, benefits from Ron Paul’s slick ad asking, “What if China had bases in Texas?” Paul uses it to promote his delusional view of the world and certainly fools some well-meaning but ill-informed Americans. Those who don’t want us to fight with our hands tied behind our back are easy prey for the gibberish Paul is selling because this ad blurs the lines between the frustrating manner we have prosecuted the war on terror and the very valid reasons for entering into it to begin with.

Many Americans who understand the appallingly halfhearted way the war in Viet Nam was “fought” have an understandable predisposition toward believing we are fighting a “civil war” or “meddling in the affairs of other countries” when we take proactive measures in fighting our war on terror. Paul knows this and shamelessly plays on it for votes.

 Nevertheless, implying there is no difference between Viet Nam and the current war on terror is as addle brained as saying there is no difference between night and day.

Because it was largely true that nothing when North Viet Nam and the Chinese attacked South Viet Nam, would not have brought that war to our shores, does not in any way mean a “live and let live” policy toward the Islamist will insure our safety – just ask the Spanish train bombing victims about that.

Paul’s misguided foreign policy would have us deny the threat of Islam based on the implied notion that we can treat Iran and organized Islamist terror groups as if they are just another group of Nazis speaking a different language. The Nazis did not want to destroy our way of life; they wanted to take over our way of life. The Islamists don’t want to take over our way of life they want to murder every one of us and spit on our way of life.

In its Verses of The Sword, the Koran instructs Islamist to cheat lie steal in order to ultimately murder all infidels for merely living. It says nothing about putting these things into practice only if attacked by the West.   Ron Paul either doesn’t understand this at best; or doesn’t want his supporters to understand this at worst.    

 Slick ads that cloud the differences between the enemies of the 1940s and the enemies we face today do nothing to keep us safe; on the contrary they lull us into a false sense of security. Shame on you Ron Paul; shame on you.

Ron Paul: Blame America First or Blame Israel Altogether

 

There really is little to no difference between Ron Paul’s ideas on foreign policy and hatred of America’s military strength, and Barrack Hussein Obama’s – except for the fact that Ron Paul may be far more of a clueless lunatic than his Marxist counterpart.  Especially in understanding radical Islam or of our allies who stand as the only bulwark against them in the Islamic nest of the Middle East.

Like the mainstream media who contorts or covers up facts in logic defying twists to support Obama, Ron Paul’s Mob Zombie True Believers, do the same thing for their political savior.  They’ll even cover for Ron Paul’s blatant anti-Israel stance, and jump through hoops of absurdity and parsings to even declare that Ron Paul is a ‘Zionist” in response to the fact their messiah was not invited to appear at the Republican Jewish Coalition forum.

Daniel Greenfield notes the ridiculous attempt by The Atlantic to portray Ron Paul a friend of Israel, when his statements and actions illustrate him to be absolutely no different than Obama’s hostility towards our only ally in the Middle East.

More to the point, I wanted to link to this piece, so we can be reminded of Ron Paul’s absurd positions and statements regarding Israel, who he blames for the world’s woes only second to his blaming America first for radical Jihadists and the chaos now enveloping the globe.

Ron Paul: Blame Israel First

Do you know who the latest Zionist on the block is? It’s the man who called Israel, “an aggressive, national socialist state” and suggested that the original World Trade Center bombing may have really been carried out by Israel.

…So how is he a Zionist? Ask Jeffrey Goldberg of The Atlantic. According to him,Ron Paul is, “in one sense, a true Zionist, a believer in two core values of the Jewish liberation movement: Jewish independence and Jewish self-reliance.”

But not Israel itself.  That’s clever double speak to cover for a man who repeatedly suggests that Israel is a bane to the United States.  But it’s election time and Ron Paul, a career politician , vying for the Presidency for the third time under different parties, has to pander for votes beyond the unemployed college anarchists and Alex Jones/Lew Rockwell cultists who join with the Occupy crowds to tear down everything they hate about America.

The Mob Zombies of course insist their vaunted savior is simply against foreign aid, kind of the same way they insist he is against earmarks, but appropriates them on a regular basis.  But as Greenfield points out – it’s not foreign aid to Israel that Ron Paul has issues with:

Ron Paul isn’t simply against foreign aid; he believes that the Israeli lobby controls Washington and involves American in foreign wars… and that this was among the causes of September 11. Paul has described the original World Trade Center bombing as a “retaliation” and during the Republican debates in 2007 and 2011 blamed American foreign policy for Al-Qaeda’s attacks.

… Ron Paul has insisted that we should have stayed out of WWII and let Nazi Germany and the USSR fight it out, and that by entering the war Churchill only prolonged it. Clearly this was another expression of Ron Paul’s Zionism and his desire to promote “Jewish independence and Jewish self-reliance.”

Ron Paul supporters will clamor that the above material comes from the Ron Paul Survival Report, which according to the Paul campaign was supposedly written for years by some mysterious stranger pretending to be Ron Paul. This unknown stranger discussed his time in Congress, his medical career and his wife Carol all in the first person.

Of course the mob zombies in the cult of Paul buy that ridiculous argument as if a fiery finger wrote them on stone.  That the media will attempt to regurgitate this is their effort to continue to fraction the Conservative base and throw the general election back to Obama.  A house divided cannot stand, and Ron Paul’s purpose seems to be to continue to divide the Conservative House, so that the Marxists continue in power.

Perhaps my greatest visceral dislike of Ron Paul, is that he gives aid and comfort to our enemies, while denouncing America and our allies in their presence – almost as readily as Obama does on foreign speaking engagements.

In an interview with Iranian television, Ron Paul complained that the president had not said anything to Israel about its horrible massacre, compared Gaza to a concentration camp, and made it rather clear that he sympathized with the terrorists. It wasn’t some unknown mysterious stranger signing Paul’s name to hateful screeds. It was the man himself doing an interview with the agents of a murderous regime responsible for the murders of numerous Americans.

What about the following statement in the House of Representatives?

“Bin Laden’s claims are straightforward. The U.S. defiles Islam with military bases on holy land in Saudi Arabia, its initiation of war against Iraq, with 12 years of persistent bombing, and its dollars and weapons being used against the Palestinians as the Palestinian territory shrinks and Israel’s occupation expands. There will be no peace in the world for the next 50 years or longer if we refuse to believe why those who are attacking us do it.”

If this was 1942 – Ron Paul’s absurd and infuriating appeasement comments would sound something like this:

“Tojo’s claims are straightforward.  The U.S. defies Japan with military bases on islands in the Pacific, it’s initiation of aggression against Japan by  stationing fighter squadrons on mainland China, and it’s dollars and weapons being used against Japan’s expansion of it’s territories.  There will be no peace in the world for the next 50 years or longer if we refuse to believe why Japan attacked us on December 7, 1941.”

Ron Paul isn’t calling for impartiality or agitating for non-interventionism because he supports Jewish self-reliance, but because he believes that Israel is the source of our problems. He has made it clear over and over again that he blames Israel’s own war on terrorists for terrorism, just as he blames America’s war on terror for terrorism against America.

Paul’s hatred for the United States government has led him to make a common intellectual cause with Islamic terrorists. As far back as his Survival Report days, Paul had gotten in the habit of responding to Islamic violence with conspiracy theories. When Tehran was calling for Rushdie’s head on a plate, Paul wondered if “Some of the people hyping the Rushdie affair have other motives? For example to make Moslems look bad for geopolitical reasons?” (Ron Paul Survival Report – April 1989)

In January 2002, Paul wrote, “How can we forever fail to address the provocative nature of U.S. taxpayer money being used to suppress and kill Palestinians and ignore the affront to the Islamic people that our military presence on their holy land of Saudi Arabia causes.” In that same article he described the terrorists as “those who so passionately hate us that suicide becomes a just and noble cause in their effort to kill and terrorize us”.

In his book, “A Foreign Policy of Freedom,” Ron Paul insisted that, “all recent presidents have reiterated our obligation to bleed for Israel.” American soldiers have never bled for Israel, but language of this sort plays well with Paul’s base, and continues feeding the myth that America’s confrontation with Islamic terror is due to Israel, rather than Islam.

Occasionally Paul switches gears and points out that a cutoff in foreign aid would be good for Israel. That may well be the case. I believe that and so do quite a few people who support Israel. But this issue stands entirely apart from Paul’s larger “Blame Israel” worldview.

Ron Paul is not simply anti-foreign aid, he is anti-Israel. That is the country he has singled out for blame over and over again. And while he has every right to his opinion, conservative Jewish groups have a right not to give him a forum.

More Ron Paul Idiotic Lunacy – Says Bush ‘Gleeful’ That 9-11 Attacks Happened

Alex Jones acolyte and candidate for a straightjacket Ron Paul says 9-11 attacks prompted glee because they provided pretext for invasion of Iraq.

Question One, who do rabid American-Hating Leftists and Jihad Terrorists often quote and look to for validation of their hatred of America?

Answer: Ron Paul.

Question: What is the difference between Marxists who hate America’s former strength in the world and Ron Paul?

Answer: Nothing.  They both sound exactly the same.

Yes, the crazy lunatic Uncle in the attic is back to spew more 9-11 Truther madness and make insidious and outrageous claims to his whacked-0ut appeasement horde hippies whom will vote for Obama should their own political savior not be on the ballot come November.

But this time, he goes over the line from being a clueless outrageous nutball – to an overt and calculating offensive nutball deserving our absolute contempt.

Yes I said clueless, as this is the moron who lectures us and insists Iran was and is no threat to American interests and that WE have provoked the Ayatollahs, Mullahs and Ahmadinejad to hate us.

CBS News reports:

Ron Paul: 9/11 prompted “glee” in Bush administration

Republican presidential candidate Ron Paul said Thursday evening that Bush administration officials were gleeful after the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks because it gave them a pretext to invade Iraq.

“Just think of what happened after 9/11. Immediately before there was any assessment there was glee in the administration because now we can invade Iraq,” the Texas Republican told a group of mostly young backers in Iowa. He went on to suggest officials are now setting the stage for an invasion of Iran.

This is beyond contemptible despite this clown’s current denials that he did not mean what he said and is being taken out of context, which is what he always does when called on his ridiculous and oft-made Blame-America-First comments.

No Ron, we are not taking you out of context  We heard and read the transcript of what you said when you said it.  You are a consistent imbecile who blames America for causing 9-11, and you blame Bush for starting an unprovoked war (after you voted for the resolution to use force in A’stan). You just forgot to smooth and cover your Alex Jones Truther crap in clever political language to give yourself plausible deniability you said anything so blatantly offensive to the American people.  But we know what you really mean.

First of all, we all saw what happened on 9-11.  NO ONE was gleeful 3,000 Americans were immolated and crushed to death, except maybe for some former President who lamented that 9-11 did not happen on his watch.  That you subtly and now overtly claim that Bush was ‘gleeful’ for it so he can go to war in Iraq is the HEIGHT of insidiousness.  You need to be censored and run out of Congress on a rail, unfortunately many just ignore you and consider you an Alzheimer patient warming a seat in the House.

Second of all, we did not invade Iraq immediately after 9-11 as your ‘glee’ comment would indicate was the intent.  We went after the Taliban who harbored Osama Bin Laden in Afghanistan first.  Iraq came later in 2003, when the extensive nature of Jihad that had gone unanswered since the early 1980’s revealed a bigger threat than we understood.  You remember the dance Colin Powell did with the UN for over a year???  Bush rightly decided to act against Sadaam Hussein’s 12 year violation of UN mandates and our own 1991 Cease Fire after it was learned that he was not only funding Jihadists himself, but declared Jihad on America, the same as Bin Laden did in 1997.  Bush was a putz to plead with the UN to try and get some kind of approval before we acted in our own security interests.  Bush had all the authority he needed to invade Iraq by Sadaam’s violation of the 1991 Cease Fire and the near-constant targeting of U.S. aircraft keeping the no-fly zones he agreed to, aggressor-free.

But of course arguing these points ad nauseum with Ron Paul’s ‘true believer’ cultists is a complete and utter waste of time.  They simply need to be defeated and rendered neuter as we would the Marxist Left.  Many of these same Paulistas voted for Obama in 2008, and will do so again – so we’re dealing with another wing of the America-hating faction that identifies with the anti-war appeasement Leftists that side with America’s enemies.  Both the unhinged Left and the unhinged Libertarians hate American superpowerdom with equal aplomb and gleefully attach themselves to whatever cult of personality comes along to do nothing but rant about what is wrong with our country.

For all the empty claims from worshippers of Ron Paul that their vaunted political savior is the only real Conservative – the FACT is that Ron Paul is a Libertarian, and NOT a Conservative.  He never was.  He has to run on a Republican ticket in order to win elections. Ron Paul is nothing more than a political opportunist who has accomplished NOTHING during his tenure in Congress but rant about what he says is wrong, while doing nothing constructive about them, while he appropriates earmarks for himself and constituents after ranting against them.  He talks a big game, but he does NOTHING, ABSOLUTELY NOTHING to take down the very things he purports to stand against.  If Bush lied to get us into Iraq as he asserts where are his articles of impeachment drawn up against Bush?

He’s just a lunatic career politician, one his cult-of-personality True Believers insist will save America from itself.  The same kind of crap not afar off from what the Communists state Obama will deliver for them.

Ron Paul is happy to hand Obama a second term by saying he will push for a ‘brokered GOP convention’.  Paul has no intent to back down after he loses the primary.  Don’t be surprised that he will run 3rd party if he doesn’t get the GOP nomination.  He will.  He wants this office badly, he has run for it 3 times now on different tickets and is willing to hand it back to an overt Marxist, if he’s not the nominee because his contempt for America’s military and standing in the world is as much as the rabid Marxist Left.

By some miracle if it ever came down to voting for Paul or Obama, this author will be writing in his dog….. again.  A much better choice than two America-loathing morons hell bent on  destroying those  things about this country they hate while empowering and establishing the very enemies in the world who want America itself destroyed.

Useful Idiocy

 

The Occupy Wall Street/Days of Rage Protests showcase the imbecility that has enslaved a once free people.

INVAR

Regardless of the fact that overt Communists/Marxists and America-hating agendas are behind the organizing, funding and stoking of the US Days of Rage protests, it’s disconcerting to read how so many in this country actually side with the idea’s these protesters are promoting, when their ultimate aim is of making America a full-blown Communist dictatorship.

When I said in my previous entry that this absurd and romantic notion of a glorious ‘people’s revolution’ would ultimately make the French blush, I wasn’t being facetious.  America has been led to a place that Robspierre himself couldn’t have imagined.  An entire continent led to hate businesses, wealth and those who have been led to think they are entitled to the private wealth and property of others they think ‘stole it’ from them.  This is a dangerous zeitgeist beyond what existed in 1789 France, when The Terror struck at the behest of a stoked mob to hate the monarchy and anyone accused of having benefitted from the deposed regime.

What is more alarming to me, is watching the Ron Paul mob zombies/supporters/Libertarians rant in solidarity with the useful Marxist idiots chanting in the streets.  While the Ron Paul/Alex Jones acolytes will chant their mantra of blaming banks, Jews and the Fed for all the woe and misery that they need to be punished for –  the Leftists are chanting about hating the wealthy and demanding the rich whites and Conservatives need punishing while suggesting rewriting the Constitution to impose the planks of raw Communism.  Never before in our history has the liberty of the whole people been in such danger of being eliminated and replaced by tyranny.  Not even the 1860’s match the risk and precipice we now stand today.  And it will come by the demand of the mobs that demand the heads of those they have been brainwashed into hating.

Once such a bloodletting begins, I guarantee you – it will not stop at the current targets of ‘corporations’, ‘banks’, and ‘the Fed’.  It will grow to include ANYONE that is deemed to have benefitted from the society that this Communist-Marxist-stoked  uprising has deemed the enemy of the people.  You can read it on forum discussions already. Anyone who does not support the chosen path and political saviors the mob has decided to pledge themselves, are enemies that they will demand be punished, stripped and even killed.  This is human nature at it’s purest form.  This is the history of mankind.  And from the lessons of history, similar mobs led to hate the former foundations of civil society, and a miasma of strife and death followed.  I see rivers of blood coming, massive privation and misery being the fruits of what these mobs will bear.

Why do I call this useful idiocy?  Simple.  When gross corruption and unrighteousness have been institutionalized by the ruling class and tolerated by the working class, the clamor for correction and punishment when real misery is felt, is easily manipulated by the Ruling Class as the people search for someone and something to blame.

The Left blame Conservatives and Capitalism.  Ron Paul’s brigades blame the Feds and “neocons” with Capitalism being cited as totally corrupted by cronyism.  Both of them become united in going to war on those in “power”, though they might each blame different elements.  This happened in 1789 France. Blaming the Monarchy towards it’s overthrow transformed quickly into blaming the church, blaming the aristocracy, to blaming anyone with wealth or even perceived wealth for the misery that followed.  Blood flowed in the streets and innocents falsely accused in the bloodlust were executed by thirsty mobs eager to rend their misguided notions of ‘justice’.

What you have going on here, is no different.  An opening act to the unravelling of a civil society because both mobs blame those with power.   The Left will blame the power of Race, Capitalism and Wealth,  The Libertarians blame the Fed, Corporations and the military industry.  Shared between them is a hatred of Jews, Reaganite Conservatives (they call neocons) and biblical morality if it has any influence on society.  Both useful idiocies are being used to demand a new order, a restructuring, the removal of what they say is oppression.

The end result will be the annihilation of both groups of useful idiots by those that orchestrated this uprising for purposes the useful idiots refuse to allow themselves to see, or because they are too woefully ignorant to see it.

Look at Egypt as a recent example of what I’m talking about.  The Coptics stood shoulder to shoulder with the Muslims.  They were warned that the Muslim Brotherhood was behind the movement against Mubarak with helpful instigation by William Ayers and the Anti-War Marxists who installed Obama to the presidency.  Some of us warned against the support of the uprising in Egypt against a secular despot – because much worse would fill the vacuum.  We were denounced as supporters of a U.S. supported despot, guilty of his crimes as if we did them ourselves.  We warned them that what they would empower would be worse than what they suffered under for decades.  They responded with pictures of Coptic Christians standing with Muslims against the Mubarak regime and cited as proof our warnings that militant Jihadists were going to take over Egypt were unfounded.  They insisted that real liberty was coming to Egypt.  As we warned,  The Coptics there enabled and empowered the Islamic tyranny that is going to exterminate them.  And that persecution and extermination is now underway.

Same is true here.  The End the Fed Ron Paul supporters who cheer the Days of Rage protests in the US, are the Coptics of Egypt – who in their useful idiocy – are empowering the very movement that will ultimately turn on and exterminate them, along with the rest of us.  The frightening truth I fear is that a good chunk of the Ron Paul supporters hate as much or more than the overt Leftists do, those of us they will blame.

Dewey From Detroit posits an expanded thought process on these Marxist mobs rampaging in major cities.  His warnings are the same as mine, without the history lesson:

The OWS Crowd Gets Tough

SNIP:

We have a pack of economic imbeciles,  orchestrated by community organizers and union-mob bosses, who have gone on holiday to set up camp and get in people’s faces in order to rage against unfairness and corporations….

…If you still don’t believe that the Marxist/socialists have had their eyes on America as their prize for a long, long time, you’ve either not been paying attention or you’re one of the progressive sheeple “occupying” Wall Street who thinks you just dreamed up the socialist nirvana of America without borders and corporations all on your own. Or, worse yet, you are one of the titans of Wall Street who donated a gazillion dollars to “Organizing for Obama” to elect this posse of Stalinist morons.

The Idiocy, Ignorance and Willful Stupidity of Ron Paul

Ron Paul Again Justifies Al Qaeda’s Attack, Cites Bin Laden’s Statements & Blames America for 9-11.

One of the things I can say about Ron Paul, is that he is consistent.

When he is right about domestic tax and monetary policy, he is unwavering and consistent.

And, when he is hopelessly ignorant, clueless, wrong and idiotic about foreign policy – he is consistent.

He consistently proves he is dangerously naive about the nature of Jihadist Islam, and consistently blames America for provoking 9-11.

He is consistently clueless about world affairs, and consistently demonstrates that he believes the world is motivated and thinks like your average Christian American.  He couldn’t be more wrong.

Raymond Ibrahim at Pajamas Media illustrates Ron Paul’s idiocy and ignorance in regards to Jihadist Islam and 9-11.

Exposed: Ron Paul’s Foreign Policy Ignorance and Naivety

SNIP:

….Rick Santorum exposed the latter’s naivety when it comes to the goals and motives of al-Qaeda:

 On your [Paul’s] Web site on 9/11, you had a blog post that basically blamed the United States for 9/11. On your Web site, yesterday, you said that it was our actions that brought about the actions of 9/11. Now, Congressman Paul, that is irresponsible. The president of the United States — someone who is running for the president of the United States in the Republican Party should not be parroting what Osama bin Laden said on 9/11. ….[full transcript here].

After rejecting Santorum’s thesis, Paul made his fatal blunder:

Osama bin Laden and al-Qaeda have been explicit — they have been explicit, and they wrote and said that we attacked America because you had bases on our holy land in Saudi Arabia, you do not give Palestinians fair treatment, and you have been bombing — [audience booing] I didn’t say that. I’m trying to get you to understand what the motive was behind the bombing.

This exchange clearly revealed Paul’s lack of knowledge concerning the nature of the enemy. After all, it’s one thing for some Americans to believe that the source of all conflict is the United State’s presence in some countries, it’s quite another — it’s dangerous — for a potential president to think, and speak, this way.

I submit that it is not only dangerous, but beyond foolish and borderline treasonous to be parroting the taking points of the Islamic enemy as the cassus belli as their justification to slaughter over 3,000 innocent American civilians using civilian airliners as missiles.  That a presidential candidate uses the Al Qaeda statement of justification for 9-11 as a reason to blame ourselves for the attack and therefore change our foreign policy as a result is beyond forgiveness.  Such thinking would demand we apologize to the Imperial Japanese for provoking their bombing of Pearl Harbor because our naval base there threatened their Pacific expansion.  Ron Paul would have us apologize to Al Qaeda for provoking them into attacking us because we had troops in a nation he was exiled from at the invitation of the Saudi government.

The article continues:

Ironically, Paul even contradicted himself: minutes earlier, when discussing the need to cut back on the military, he complained that we had a military presence in 130 countries — bringing to mind the question: why haven’t these countries lashed out [against us the way Al Qaeda has then]?

And that’s a crucial point Ron Paul never addresses – that our bases exist at the invitation or welcome of the local governments that host us or by agreements signed as a consequence of conflict to prevent further conflict or threat upon American interests.    Mr. Ibrahim goes on:

But what’s worse is Paul’s naivety — that he would actually swallow and regurgitate verbatim the propaganda al-Qaeda has been dishing for years: thus “Osama bin Laden and al-Qaeda have been explicit — they have been explicit, and they wrote and said”; and “I’m trying to get you to understand what the motive was behind the bombing.”

Did it never occur to the congressman that al-Qaeda could be, um, lying? Had he bothered to juxtapose al-Qaeda’s propaganda to the West — which indeed does amount to blaming U.S. foreign policy for their terrorism — with the otherthings “they wrote and said,” he would have learned their ultimate motives.

For example, for all his talk that U.S. “occupation” is the heart of the problem, shortly after the 9/11 strikes, Osama bin Laden wrote to fellow Muslims:

Our talks with the infidel West and our conflict with them ultimately revolve around one issue — one that demands our total support, with power and determination, with one voice — and it is: Does Islam, or does it not, force people by the power of the sword to submit to its authority corporeally if not spiritually? Yes. There are only three choices in Islam: [1] either willing submission [conversion]; [2] or payment of the jizya, through physical, though not spiritual, submission to the authority of Islam; [3] or the sword — for it is not right to let him [an infidel] live. The matter is summed up for every person alive: Either submit, or live under the suzerainty of Islam, or die. (The Al Qaeda Reader, p. 42)

This medieval threefold choice, then — conversion, subjugation, or the sword — is the ultimate source of conflict, not U.S foreign policy (see also “Reciprocal Treatment or Religious Obligation,” which compares al-Qaeda’s messages to the West with its internal messages to Muslims, documenting all the contradictions).

Ron Paul rejects these facts often cited to him and his supporters in favor of his own talking point insistence that the ONLY reason Jihadists wage war is because we “are over there”, or if they are provoked somehow.

Apparently Ron Paul does not believe in the freedom of speech or the press if appeasing Jihadists is a primary factor in determining America’s foreign policy.  After all, if a Danish cartoon can incite a Jihadist attack, then Ron Paul’s “Do not provoke them” approach to foreign policy means our own Constitutionally-protected rights are subservient to those of Islam.   It’s a sickeningly silly and appeasement position repeated like a parrot, over and over again, as if he keeps repeating it – it will be accepted as the truth.  A cursory study of Jihadist Islam and what motivates the global movement for a Caliphate negates Ron Paul’s willful ignorance of this enemy and it’s another indictment about why Ron Paul should never be president.  He should go back to the Libertarian Party where pacifist theory belongs.

Totally Unhinged – The War Against God, Righteousness & Christians

Totally Unhinged – The War Against God, Righteousness & Christians


I have a curse that is the penchant for noticing patterns, trends, and the zeitgeist blowing through the culture. The spirit behind efforts, movements and populist sentiments that ring out across the land.

Since we fight a spiritual war against Evil in High Places, I tend to notice the spirit of commonality that exists to war upon the values and sacred beliefs we at one time cherished as a people in this nation.

Currently, we are embroiled in a bitter spiritual war that will inevitably lead to a physical one, and that has never become as evident as it has this past weekend as the rhetoric on the web, the hysteria of the rabid Left media goons and the jealous/hating zealots in the blogosphere are on full display.

Such vitriol always ends up leading to violence, whether it be a genocidal slaughter, or a civil war – the spiritual war transcends to the physical plane, and God’s people are once again embroiled in a bloody battle. It would be a mistake to ignore the spirits behind the war against God, Christianity and the call of the nation to repentance. Some of those spirits are clever enough to cloak themselves in garb beyond the blatant and self-evident hate to transform themselves into angels of light and ‘reason’ that deceive the individual to focus on singular aspects of contention, rather than the message, point and purpose of the call to gather a people to beseech them to turn back to God.

While I am not a listener of radio entertainer Glenn Beck, or much care for his ability to generate instant tears on his news program, that he would call America together for the purpose of exhorting us to turn back to God is an effort worthy of the support of anyone who is a Christian, anyone who reveres the bible and/or understands the religious heritage and history from whence we came as a people.

If the question for the nation was “Who stands with the Lord?” – then clearly over 800,000 physically stood for the purpose and exhortation of the event, this past Saturday with hundreds of thousands more online. More than a million-strong having heard or seen part or all of the event. The point and purpose; to turn our nation back to God – and seek repentance for ourselves and the nation.

But then almost immediately, the lines of demarcation in the spiritual war now raging became manifest.

The usual God-hating Marxists and Leftists along with the Ruling Class politicians and pundits did not disappoint in their expected outcry of rage against a rally for America to turn to God. But even they surpassed the usual amount of demonic vitriolic vomit to cross into the sphere of total unhingement.

Former editor Beau Friedlander for Air America and contributor to the Huffington Post put a bounty on the head of Glenn Beck and offered $100,000 for anyone who could provide sex tapes and phone records or any evidence of wrong doing by the talk radio host. Of course he provided that offer after he roundly bashed Christian Americans and Evangelicals – slandering them for being evil “neocons” (a favorite slam from both the Marxist Left and the Ron Paul/Alex Jones bunch). The column itself was so outrageous that even the mega-left leaning HuffPo had to retract the article from it’s site.

MSNBC’s unhinged alchie Chrissy “I gotta thrill up my leg” Matthews ranted abject fury over the rally, exclaiming: ““Who stole America? I want to know, who stole America? Give me the names. Who stole America?” as if Christians seeking God snuck into D.C. under cover of darkness and turned us into a theocracy by putting guns to everyone’s head and telling them to pray to God.

This was the day after he went beserk screaming “Little right-wing boys and little right-wing girls joining hands and singing their praise for Glenn Beck and Sarah Palin. I have a nightmare”. Yes, the nightmare for any Ruling Class hedonist is that a Christian people would dare pray and ask the nation to repent. They and the demons with their Prince who rules the power of the air, and the airwaves – tremble at the thought.

But there is far more out there from the rabid Marxist Left if you wish to do a Google search and read the absolute foam-at-the-mouth vitriol against everyone who went to that rally this Saturday.

The hatred of Christians and those who call us to return to God, is rising to an institutionalized level that I only experienced in India from the Muslims and Hindus – two opposite extremes of faith with a common enemy; Christians. Yet this is supposedly America, but it certainly feels less and less like it each passing day.

And when you read all the hatred, ranting and outright insanity and fear the Ruling Class and their Marxist sycophants have for Christians – you suddenly find yourself reading strikingly similar hatred, ranting and outright insanity from so-called Conservatives on the Right. Even moreso in some cases.

In solidarity with the Secular Christian-hating Leftists, many self-described Christian “patriots” also went beserk with as much vomitous vitriol as their Ruling Class media counterparts. They decided they would not stand with the Lord if it entailed standing with a man whose politics and doctrinal positions they did not agree with. Instead they decried those who organized the rally as being in league with the Devil, and those who went with being deceived and blinded sheep.

So they undertook the same efforts as those on the Secular and Marxist Left – and ardently warned America to stay away from; to ridicule; demean; smear; and even boldly attack Beck’s denominational faith. To plead with America that Beck’s call and assembly was not to be followed, listened to or acknowledged, even if his call was for the nation to repent and turn back to God.

Within hours, jealous competitors decided to join with the Secular Left and wage their own efforts to ‘expose’ the man responsible for calling America together before God. I mean, “How dare he!” as one blog poster in a fit of rage let fly. I could almost feel the palpable rage that must have existed in those that tore huge chunks of flesh with their teeth from the Apostle Stephen as they foamed in rage at those who had a following not approved by those who made themselves arbiters of what is holy and patriotic.

One such example is Conspiratorial crackpot and Anti-semitc nutcase Alex Jones, who in a fit of jealous rage that Beck could call nearly a million Americans to come together and pray to God – announced all his current conspiracy film projects were going to be halted so he could work on his Bash Beck film : “The Glenn Beck Deception”.

Yes, all of you 800,000 who were there on Saturday – you are “deceived” by “evil neocons” into praying to God and calling the nation to repentance.

There’s Youtube video of that rant if you care to hunt for it yourself.

Then there’s acolyte of the Leftist/Alex Jones meme, James Howard Kuntsler, who went so far to include F-bombs and other insulting vomit of those of you “disoriented citizens’ who attended the rally on Saturday:

Quote:
Originally Posted by James Howard Kuntsler

…The masses still truly believe that prayer will save them from bankruptcy, foreclosure, penury, the loss of status, and the cut-off of precious air-conditioning, so Glenn steps onto a national monument like an Aztec priest ascending the Pyramid of Huitzilopochtli to soothe the angry god with worshipful incantations, and incidentally maybe a few dozen sacrificial hearts cut out — just as the tea-bagger right-wing glorifies the sacrifices of US soldiers blown up by roadside bombs for the sake of American military adventuring

No I’m not providing a link to that spew – what I posted is all I will subject you fine folks to reading.

But back to the curse I mentioned in the first sentence of this rant. In this spiritual war for the soul of the nation and it’s near-term future – the spirit prompting those bashing Beck and Christians at that rally, whether they be from the Ruling Class Left – or the Alex Jones/Right – is the same spirit – who hates beyond reason and logic that anyone be exhorted to return to God, to seek Repentance and to turn from our wicked ways as II Chronicles 7:14 tells us.

Make no mistake, this is a spiritual war. And history always shows, that those engaged in attacking the faith and spiritual constitution of a segment of the population – will transcend the arena of rhetoric and rant, and rend that pound of flesh from our bones with teeth and steel.

Such is how Satan the Devil works.

What Ron Paul and the Anti-War Left Fail to Understand About Jihad and Its Motives

anti-war pacifism

In almost every exchange you get into with anti-war pacifists or Ron Paul supporters, the inevitable argument is that the reason Radical Islam exists and why Jihadists want to see America destroyed is because of America’s presence and involvement in the Mid-East.

This is demonstrably an ignorant and clueless understanding of the Jihadist mindset and radical Islamist estacheology that fuels the desire to wage jihad against infidels. The anti-war argumentation is typical of the sheltered Intellectuals sipping latte’s and projecting our own Western motivations in answering “why?” Islamists hate us and are willing to wage war on us. The truth is that the real motivation is so beyond the multicultural ideology that infects the West – and pacifist thinking, that it is dismissed outright as not even considerable. Their minds automatically revert to the presumption that jihad is simply a reaction to provocation. Unfortunately, that is a Western mindset built on a belief of tolerance that does not exist in the radical Muslim culture.

The push for pacifist politics in dealing with the Islamofascist beast that is rising in the world is the result of pure ignorance of this mindset – and a lack of conviction in the foundational bedrock of our own culture and civilization.

Tawfik Hamid is a doctor and former Jihadist militant that shares the development of the Jihadist mindset by the radicals and gives us proper insight into the REAL REASON WHY Muslims across the spectrum of Islam are motivated to go to war on America and the West.

It is NOT because of the yellow-belly washing Ron Paul and the Anti-war left have everyone believing is the motivation.

Read what a militant muslim himself reveals.

(Excerpts posted here – go to link for full essay)

The development of a jihadist’s mind—What occupies the mind of a jihad-driven Muslim?

“We viewed both the Soviets and the Americans as enemies. The Soviets were considered infidels because they did not believe in the existence of God, while the Americans did not follow Islam. Although we planned to fight the Soviets first, our ultimate objective is to destroy the United States – the greatest symbol of the infidel’s freedom”.

TAWFIK HAMID

What occupies the mind of a jihad-driven Muslim? How is such fervor planted in young and impressionable believers? Where does it originate? How did I – once an innocent child who grew up in a liberal, moderate and educated household – find myself a member of a radical Islamic group? These questions go to the root of Islamic violence and must be addressed if free societies are to combat radical Islam. To further this aim, I will explore the psychological development of a jihadi’s mind through my own firsthand experience as a former member of a Muslim terrorist organization.

I was born in Cairo to a secular Muslim family. My father was an orthopedic surgeon and an agnostic at heart; my mother was a French teacher and a liberal. Both considered Islam to be, primarily, an integral part of our culture. With the exception of my father, we would fast on Ramadan. Even though my father was not religious, he understood our need to fit into the community and never forced his secular views on us. He espoused diverse philosophical ideas but encouraged us to follow our own convictions. Most importantly, he taught my brother and me to think critically rather than to learn by rote. I never had any doubt, however, that we were Muslim – that Allah was our creator, Muhammad his messenger and the Koran our book…

I felt sorry for the Christians, sensing that they must be hurt by being treated as an inferior minority in an Islamic society. In my short life it was the first time I perceived that my Christian friends were not my equals…

When I was nine, I learned the following Koranic verse during one of our Arabic lessons: “But do not think of those that have been slain in God’s cause as dead. Nay, they are alive! With their sustainer have they their sustenance. They are very happy with the reward they received from Allah [for dying as a shahid] and they rejoice for the sake of those who have not joined them [i.e., have not yet died for Allah]” (Koran 3:169-70). It was the first time I was exposed to the concept of shahid (martyr), and naturally, I began to dream of becoming one.

…Dying as a shahid, in fact, was the only deed that fully guaranteed paradise after death. In secondary school I watched films about the early Islamic conquest. These films promoted the notion that “true” Muslims were devoted to aggressive jihad.

…I was reading a book entitled Alshaykhan by Taha Hussein that cited the Prophet Muhammad’s words: “I have been ordered by Allah to fight and kill all people [non-Muslims] until they say, ‘No God except Allah.'” Following the reading of this Hadith, I decisively turned toward Nagi and said to him, “If we are to apply Islam correctly, we should apply this Hadith to you.” At that moment I suddenly started to view Nagi as an enemy rather than as a longtime friend.

What further hardened my attitude on this matter was the advice I received from many dedicated Muslim fellow students, who warned me against befriending Christians. They based their counsel on the following verse: “O ye who believe! Take not the Jews and the Christians for your friends: They are but friends to each other. And he amongst you that turns to them [for friendship] is of them [an infidel]. Verily Allah guideth not a people unjust” (Koran 5:51). In view of this verse and the previous one, I felt obliged as a Muslim to limit my relationships with my Christian friends. The love and friendship I once felt for them had been transformed into disrespect, merely because I wished to obey the commandments of my religion. The seductive ideas of my religious studies had diluted the influence of my secular upbringing. By restricting my contact with Christians, I felt that I was doing a great deed to satisfy Allah.

…We enviously lamented, “Look how Allah has blessed the Saudis with money and oil because they apply Shari’a.” We believed that our economic problems would be solved if we did the same – just as Allah had blessed the Saudis, He would bless us.

…They warned us about the punishments awaiting us after death if we did not follow Islam strictly and were effective in advancing Islamism among many of the students, including me….This militaristic attitude during prayers was the first step in preparing me for the concept of jihad against “the enemies of Allah,” the non-Muslims.

…Salafi teachings expressly forbid acting on sexual desire. They prohibit a man from touching any woman or even looking at one. Speaking to a woman on a personal level is not permitted. To be alone with a woman without relatives present, it is believed, would “invite Satan to be the third person.” Women became for members of Jamaah, therefore, forbidden creatures. But while relations with women were strictly proscribed, the erotic passages in Salafi writings simultaneously aroused in us a powerful sexual desire. This dilemma led us to conclude that dying for Allah provided our only hope for satisfying our lust, because that lust could be satisfied only in paradise. It is not surprising that Osama bin Laden and other terrorist leaders sent letters to their suicide murderers that described to them the hur, or white ladies awaiting them in paradise. In addition to its severe prohibitions governing sexual conduct, Salafi Islam also strictly limits most artistic expression, which it considers to be satanic…

…My hatred toward non-Muslims increased dramatically, and jihadi doctrine became second nature to me. My goal of being a physician and healing the sick grew tainted, infected by my strong wish to subjugate non-Muslims and impose Shari’a.

At one afternoon prayer session, an imam I had never met before gave a sermon. He was one of the fiercest speakers I had ever heard. His passion for jihad was astonishing. He advocated complete Islamic dominance, urging us to pursue jihad against non-Muslims and subdue them to Shari’a – the duty of every true Muslim. His rhetoric inspired us to engage in war against the infidels, the enemies of Allah. He particularly condemned the West for the freedom of its women. He hated the fact that Western women were permitted to wear what they pleased, to work and to have the same opportunities as men. He dreamt of forcing the West to conform to a Taliban-style system in which women were obliged to wear the Islamic hijab, were legally beaten by men to discipline them and were stoned to death for extramarital sex. After the imam’s speech my friend, Tariq Abdul-Muhsin, asked me if I knew this speaker. When I said I did not, Tariq told me that he was Dr. Ayman al-Zawahiri and, because I was a new member of Jamaah, offered to introduce us.

…With a serious expression he placed his hand on my shoulder and said, “Young Muslims like you are the hope for the future return of khilafa [caliphate or Islamic global dominance].” I felt a great sense of gratitude and honor. I wanted to please him by contributing to his “noble” cause. Throughout my membership in Jamaah, I would meet with Zawahiri on six more occasions. He did not have much time to spare, however, for he was deeply involved in several Islamist organizations. One of Zawahiri’s significant achievements was to personalize jihad – that is, to have transformed it from a responsibility of the umma, the Islamic collective, to a duty of Muslim individuals. His goal is to spread the empire of Islam through the actions of individual radical Muslims, each of whom is incited to wage a personal jihad. This allows young Muslims to carry out suicide bombings without the endorsement of the collective body. Zawahiri and his fellow jihadis base their philosophy on the verse that states, “Then fight in Allah’s cause – you are held responsible only for yourself – and rouse the believers [to fight]” (Koran 4:84).

We viewed both the Soviets and the Americans as enemies. The Soviets were considered infidels because they did not believe in the existence of God, while the Americans did not follow Islam. Although we planned to fight the Soviets first, our ultimate objective was to destroy the United States – the greatest symbol of the infidel’s freedom.

Notice that he does not list Israel as the ‘ultimate objective’ for destruction. Please understand, that in most of militant Islam’s literature – it is the United States that is Satan’s Nation, or “The Great Satan” as in Shiite estacheology. Israel is only the ‘little Satan’. At a conference denying the Holocaust in Tehran in 2006, the poster advertising the “End of Zionism” depicted glass globes of America and Israel falling and shattering from an hourglass. Israel is in the process of falling in the poster – America is already shattered. In many of the studies of Salafi and Jiahdist Islam – there is a belief that America must be destroyed first, in order that Israel will wither and then be weak for annihilation.

My personal dream was to be an Islamic warrior, to kill the enemies of Islam, to smite their necks in accordance with the Koranic verse that read, “When ye meet the unbelievers smite at their necks” (Koran 47:4). We considered the Prophet Muhammad to be our role model. The Koran commanded us to follow in his footsteps: “Ye have indeed in the messenger of Allah a beautiful pattern [of conduct] for anyone whose hope is in Allah and the final day, and who engages much in the praise of Allah” (Koran 33:21). Salafi Islamic texts demonstrate Muhammad’s uncompromising nature. They encourage devout Muslims to emulate the prophet’s deeds and to accept and defend his actions in even the harshest passages. When confronted by outsiders, however, these same Muslims insist that such stories are misinterpreted because they are taken out of context – though they rarely, if ever, provide the context. This self-protective denial effectively paralyzes further criticism by the West.

Jihad against non-Muslims seemed to me to be a win-win situation. The following verse, commonly cited by Jamaah members, validated my duty to die for Allah: “Allah has purchased the believers, their lives and their goods. For them [in return] is the garden [of paradise]. They fight in Allah’s cause, and they slay and are slain; they kill and are killed… it [paradise] is the promise of Allah to them” (Koran 9:111).

…Among the more appalling notions it supports are the enslavement and rape of female war prisoners and the beating of women to discipline them. It permits polygamy and pedophilia. It refers to Jews as “pigs and monkeys” and exhorts believers to kill them before the end of days: Say: “Shall I tell you who, in the sight of God, deserves a yet worse retribution than these? Those [the Jews] whom God has rejected and whom He has condemned, and whom He has turned into monkeys and pigs because they worshiped the powers of evil: these are yet worse in station, and farther astray from the right path [than the mockers]” (Koran 5:60).

…The civilized world ought to recognize the immense danger that Salafi Islam poses; it must become informed, courageous and united if it is to protect both a generation of young Muslims and the rest of humanity from the disastrous consequences of this militant ideology.
