What Mutual Interests?

Obama said “we seek a new way forward, based on mutual interest and mutual respect” Let’s examine these “mutual interests”. Muslim Mullahs’ and leaders of Islamic states have made their interests very clear. They are interested in forcing the world to submit to Islam or die. Our interests are to live. Muslims want to stifle independent thought and disallow any behavior beliefs that are not explicit in the Koran. We want freedom of speech. Well off Muslims all over the world are used to having slaves and treat them poorly. We believe in individual liberty. Muslim women are considered property of the father, then the husband, and then their children. Women in the non-Muslim world have rights, they can go to school, own property, and their word in court carries the same weight as that of men. Gee I don’t see too many mutual interests, do you?

U. S. National Socialism Begins

To all those (especially Republicans) that stated they want BHO to succeed, be very careful what you wish for. BHO’s success is not the nation’s success. Our president feels that prosperity is no good when only the prosperous prosper. Taking the socialist sugar coating off that statement it translates to producers should not be the only ones to reap the benefits of their own hard work. Non-producers should also benefit. In other words “to each according to his needs” and “according to his abilities.” Sound familiar?

If there was any thought that he was moving towards the center, it has been dispelled. He is working to socialize as much of our banking and other industries under the guise of stimulus of the economy. Preparations for socializing America has been going on for a long time. By encouraging the merging of many banks into a few large ones, the task to take over the banking industry has been made easier. When there are hundreds of banks and a few go bankrupt it is hard to justify a government take over. Now that so many have merged and others were forced to be taken over that job has been made easier. Two of the largest banks and other institutions are now beholding to the government for their survival. We are on the dawn of the Socialist States of America.

Bi-partisan governing was tossed aside by BHO when he reminded the Republicans in congress the “I won”. He made it plain that the only way for the Republicans to get along with his administration is to just go along with his administration. He has many things he intends to accomplish. Since he knows that he can’t get it all done immediately, he is allowing for some of the previous administration’s actions to continue. That is why he has left certain departments from the Bush administration partially intact with some of the same people . They will be replaced as soon as he takes on those areas.

He has shown his leanings towards the Muslims in Israel’s struggle to survive. He called all the other parties involved before he spoke with Israel’s leaders. I deduce that he intends to impose an agreement on Israel based on Arab demands. Any such agreement will put Israel in a disadvantaged position and most likely will lead to its evnetual demise. Will Israel have the strength and resources to stay alive? It is doubtful if Israel can survive with out the support of America. Even if BHO’s intentions are not to destroy Israel, any agreement based on Arab demands will put Israel in a very vulnerable position. Any ideas as to what BHO will do if Israel suffers an atomic or other WMD attack? He may petition the U. N. to condemn Israel for retaliating.

We are at the dawn of a total reversal of the ideals that this country was founded. All the sacrifices made by brave Americans just may be for nothing, as America goes socialist.

Barack Husain Obama’s Reign Begins

For those that have been waiting for BHO and the Democrat controlled congress to start messing up the country, your wait is over.

BHO signed an executive order to close Guantanamo Detention Center within 12 months and the Democrat controlled Senate Finance Committee approved Geithner as Treasury Secretary despite him being a tax evader.

Timothy Franz Geithner (born August 18, 1961) was the 9th president of the Federal Reserve Bank of New York. In that role he also served as Vice Chairman of the Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC). So the man that was either asleep at the switch when the economy was tanking or actively part of tanking it will now be in charge of all of America’s money. This is the guy that will be in a position to look the other way as those who put him in charge corrupt the system even more.

Unless BHO’s plan is to execute each and every one of the combatants by year’s end the world will have some of the world’s most dastardly killers out of detention and in a position to continue their quest. These men were captured under conditions that can not stand up in any U.S. civilian courts. Whiteness’ are not available and charges can not be proven. No country contacted has agreed to take this scum of the earth. Since they can not be held, what will BHO do with them, set them free in this country?

General "Black Jack" Pershing

This story was printed in some news papers and purportedly true. Author is unknwon. Dr. Frank E. Vandiver, professor of history at Texas A&M University asserts that the General would never do anything like that. However he also states that it is not true that Muslims detest pork. That statement makes me doubt his other claims since I know that true Muslims will not be around pigs. An example is the Muslim workers at a Midwestern slaughter house refusing to work around pigs.

Born September 13th, 1860 near Laclede, Mississippi
Died July 15th, 1948 in Washington, D.C.
1891 Professor of Military Science and Tactics University of Nebraska
1898 Serves in the Spanish-American War
1901 Awarded rank of Captain
1906 Promoted to rank of Brigadier General
1909 Military Governor of Moro Province, Philippines
1916 Made Major General
1919 Promoted to General of the Armies
1921 Appointed Chief of Staff
1924 Retires from active duty
Education: 4 Years-West Point

One important thing to remember is that Muslims detest pork because they believe pigs are filthy animals. Some of them simply refuse to eat it, while others won't even touch pigs at all, nor any of their by-products. To them, eating or touching a pig, its meat, its blood, etc., is to be instantly barred from paradise and doomed to hell.

Just before World War I, there were a number of terrorist attacks against the United States and it's interests by, you guessed it, Muslim extremists.

So General Pershing captured 50 of the terrorists and had them tied to posts execution style. He then had his men bring in two pigs and slaughter them in front of the, now horrified, terrorists.

The soldiers then soaked their bullets in pigs blood, and proceeded to execute 49 of the terrorists by firing squad.

The soldiers then dug a big hole, dumped in the terrorist's bodies and covered them in pig blood, entrails, etc.

They let the 50th man go. And for about the next 42 years, there was not a single attack by a Muslim fanatic anywhere in the world.

Curious Use of Words

The way the Islamic leaders use words have always amused me not in the funny sense. Their use of the word defense is absurd. They are defending them selves by attacking those of other or non-faiths. This is because to them the mere existence of other than Muslims sends a lighting bolt of fear through them. That is because individual thought is alien to the autocratic ways of Islam. In debates they can not legitimize draconian practices as stoning to death women who have been raped, killing those who abandon Islam, or whipping unrelated men and women who have had innocent social contact. Nor do their seventh century practices of women being the property of their father, then their husbands, and then their male children make much sense to the modern enlightened mind. So they are left with converting most by threats of death.

Smaller Government is Liberty

The control that our Federal Government has over the people has grown very close to the status of a dictatorship. Those in government, from elected official, to appointed and elected judiciary, to employees, have tremendous power that is hard for the average citizen to stand against. This trend is directly counter to the reason why this country cut it self off form the British Empire. This is a very dangerous trend and will take this country down the path of ruin. America’s economy is the strongest and most successful the world has every seen. This has enabled our country to be the most generous nation ever. Our strength has helped liberate the world from tyranny several times over. The main ingredients of our success are individual liberty, a good work ethic, entrepreneurish freedom, and a government that does not interfere in the lives of the people.

I urge all to keep in mind the main purpose of the Federal Government as set up by our founders, is to protect the people from enemies foreign and domestic. This formula has served this country well for over two hundred years. Every attempt at controlling the people has had disastrous results. By moving closer and closer to socialism the spirit and strength that has made this the strongest, most tolerant and free nation will be suffocated and the nation will plunge into the quagmire of dependency. Keep our military and security departments strong, allow capitalism to work, and maintain vigilance of criminal activity. Allow the states to educate its citizens to keep our lead in innovation by keeping more revenues at the local level. These things we must keep upmost in our hearts and mind and work to maintain our greatness.

Palestine Issue

Let’s put this issue into perspective. Palestine was never a nation. It was called the Palestinian Territories by the British when they controlled the area. Its inhabitance were Egyptians, Jordanians, Lebanese, and other nationals; mostly Arabs, some Jews and Christians.

When Britain left the area they allocated 80% to the Arabs and a small portion to Jewish settlers. From the start most Arabs wanted 100% and fighting broke out. Territorial lines were set and both Arabs and Jews accept the borders. Both sides ended up with large populations of refugee camps. Israel put its people to work building a prosperous nation. The Arab leaders kept the refugee populations pent up in squalor and poverty where they promoted hate blaming the poverty on the Jews. Most of the world’s aid was used to prepare for war and line the pockets of leaders like Arafat.

The Arab territories were under the control of Egypt, Jordan and Syria when these countries threatened Israel militarily. Israel defeated all three and occupied much of the Palestine Territories. Egypt formally recognized Israel and made peace with Israel. Israel turned over to Egypt all the land it conquered from Egypt including those with large oil deposits. Israel maintained control of the rest of the conquered lands but agreed to give up most on the condition that the rest of the countries that threatened Israel recognize Israel and accept it as a neighbor.

The strife that continues today could have been avoided had the Arab leaders concentrated on building a nation rather than putting all their efforts into fighting Israel.

Envy and hate, not money, is the root of all evil. Only when man stops blaming others for his misfortune and devotes his energies to self improvement will there be world peace. Man needs to stop trying to steal prosperity from others.

How Will this Gaza/Israeli War End?

It is my belief that the war will end with the situation reverting back to the way things were before the war.

On one side we have the Gaza strip whose leaders (knowingly or not acting as surrogates for Iran) won’t be satisfied with anything less than a total destruction of Israel. To them it is not a conflict to be solved by peace with mutual acceptance of each other by the two parties.

The Israeli government has no option other than try to stop Hamas from killing its citizens. It can not allow the indiscriminant slaughter of its civilians. It has to defend its people. How can Israel convince Hamas to become a friendly neighbor? Israel tried by giving up land, providing assistance, and releasing Hamas terrorists. Each attempt at reconciliation was met with a shower of bombs upon its civilian population.

Israel’s moral ethics will not allow it to do what Hamas would gladly do with no mercy. That is the total annihilation of the opposition. The only hope is that the people of the Gaza strip will them selves revolt against Hamas, create a government amiable to having Israel as a neighbor and partner in the Middle East. With the current attitudes I do not see that happening.

The only reason that Israel still exists is its strength and support of the United States. This balance of power is very fragile. When Iran (the puppet master of Hamas, Hizbollah, and others) acquires atomic weapons and the means to deliver them on a large scale, they will (either through surrogates or directly) attack Israel possibly ringing in a new world war. The result of which will decimate many countries in the region. In any case Israel will be lost and its resurrection doubtful in the foreseeable future.

In God We Trust

The reason why “In God We Trust” has been on our currency for many (over 200) years is because this country was founded on Judeo-Christian values, such as the Ten Commandments. These values have been at the crust of all that made this country the strongest, most prosperous, most generous, most fair, and freest country in history. These values have enabled this country to right the wrongs of slavery and women suffrage even as many countries (to this day) deny these rights to so many. We are a country that with these values strongly imbedded in us has fought for these (what we consider) basic rights and freed the world from tyranny several times. Our soldiers have laid down their lives for other countries and never have we used our victory to subjugate those that were vanquished. On the contrary we have helped rebuild them.

Our Constitution guarantees freedom of religion to all. This country never has forced its citizens to worship any particular religion nor did it deny the rights of those that have no faith. That is what separation of church and state means. It guarantees the right of practice to all, including judges, teachers, police, fire fighters, and every other profession. An overwhelming majority of U.S. citizens believe in a god. Those that do not have nothing to fear from those that do. By the same token non-believers do not have the right to deny the right of others to believe and practice their faith nor to silence that expression. Non-believers have no reason to be offended by what is says on our money. It spends the same regardless of one’s beliefs. I can not see any logic in the anger expressed by the faithless.

What Can the Results of Negotiating With Iran Bring?

I just heard Mr. Hooman Majd on FOX NEWS. He says that we need be less aggressive with Iran. To me this goes against all logic. What is there to negotiate about with a regime that discounts the genocide by Nazi Germany, declares the United States as the devil, has a goal of eradicating a whole nation, and insists on developing nuclear weapons whose only purpose can be to dominate the region? This regime is funding terrorists all over the world with goal of conquering the world ruled by an Islamic Caliphate.

The major part of negotiations is for both sides to agree to some of each side’s demands. The west wants Iran to be a good world neighbor. Iran wants to eliminate all that do not embrace Islam, especially the Jews (now and all other faiths and non-faiths later as they are doing within their country.) The only thing that would appease the Iranian leadership is to sacrifice Israel and accommodate them in their desire to become a nuclear power. Even if we acquiesce to their demands what can they offer in return that would benefit the world in the long run? I can’t imagine anything at all.

It has been proven over and over again that might makes right and appeasement shows weakness in this region of the world. When Israel agreed to all the demands of Arafat and the PLO, Arafat rejected the offer. Israel agreed to all the demands and wanted just one thing in return. That was the acceptance of the existence Israel. This acceptance of the terms by Israel took Arafat by complete surprise. He did not think that it would happen and was forced to reject peace on no substantive grounds.

I can not see any resolution the tension between Iran and the rest of the world until Iran gives up its goal to dominate the Middle East by force.
