The Difference Between Islam and Islamism?
The Difference Between Islam and Islamism?
There is simply no other religion that condemns and dehumanizes those who merely believe in other faiths, or those who prefer no faith, to this extent.
During the Ottoman Empire, non-Muslims, including Jews, were dhimmis (tolerated, second-class citizens in an Islamic state, and required to pay the jizya "protection" tax.)
The "modern" Turkish Republic, however, established in 1923, did not provide Jews or other non-Muslims with greater rights and liberties, either.
Even though Turkey is one of the few so-called "secular" Muslim countries, its Jewish, Christian, Alevi, Yezidi and other non-Muslim communities have been exposed to persecution and systematic discrimination -- including ethnic cleansings, massacres, pogroms, forced conversions, forced assimilation and forced displacement for decades under non-Islamist governments.

Federal Attorney Warns Negative Posts Against Islam Could Get You Prosecution & Imprisonment
Federal Attorney Warns Negative Posts Against Islam Could Get You Prosecution & Imprisonment
Barack Obama's Attorney for the Eastern district of Tennessee Bill Killian and Kenneth Moore, special agent in charge of the FBI's Knoxville Division, want Americans to know that if you say something negative towards Islam or Muslims, the Federal government may imprison you. They will be having an event called "Public Disclosure in a Diverse Society" on June 4, the same day Obama is scheduled to sign the United Nations Small Arms Treaty.
As an immigrant just starting school at PS 122 in NYC, all
the teachers and students kept reminding me that in America we have freedom of
speech and that I am allowed to express my opinion without fear. When did this change? Was it when Obama made it to the White House?

'Jihad Intel' Launched by the Middle East Forum
'Jihad IntelJihad Intel, http://jihadintel.meforum.org, gives police tools to identify terrorists acting on behalf of Islam and to connect the dots before a terrorist incident takes place.
Not only does the FBI admit that the threat of ISIS attacks in the West is "not even close to being under control," but there are hundreds more jihadi organizations, with new ones forming continually. Most are active on social media, recruiting globally.
Each has its own identifying symbols. So, in response, Jihad Intel has established a public, gratis database of visual identifiers of over 125 Islamic terrorist groups – hundreds of emblems, flags, headbands, graffiti, propaganda, social media tags and other symbols used to incite Muslims to violence – with new groups and identifiers added continually.

Malice in Dallas
Malice in DallasAs predicted by many, a horrifying new outrage has been added to the annals of radical Islam. In the Dallas suburb of Garland, Texas, on Sunday, May 3, two men were killed by police after the pair fired at an event summoned to promote cartooning of Prophet Muhammad. Elton Simpson, a convert to Islam, and Nadir Soofi assaulted an event featuring Dutch anti-Islam demagogue Geert Wilders, and hosted by the American agitator against Muslims, Pamela Geller.
When the Government Kills
When th
Obama Apologizes After Drone Kills American and Italian Held by Al Qaeda (New York Times 4/23/15)This is not a "gotcha" column. But before reviewing American drone and airstrike policy, it is not inappropriate to remind the president and company that hubris is an unattractive trait.Last summer, as Israel was defending itself from Hamas rockets fired at its civilian population often from within the civilian population of Gaza, the White House was vehement in its criticism of Israel. A White House spokesman called Palestinian casualties, "totally unacceptable and totally indefensible." A DoD spokesman said, "The civilian casualties in Gaza have been too high. And it's become clear that the Israelis need to do more to live up to their very high and public standards." The State Department piled on. After one incident in which Hamas and UNRWA claimed only civilian casualties had occurred, the White House said, "All evidence points to Israeli artillery as the cause," and that Israel "can and should do more to protect the lives of innocent civilians." [The exception to the stream of invective was Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Martin Dempsey, who not only said Israel went to "extraordinary lengths" to avoid civilian casualties, but sent a senior team of American military officers to Israel to study IDF counterterrorism and urban warfare tactics.]

Chris Cabrera surveyed the scene from his white pickup truck. A border patrol agent for 13 years, he knows how to spot the clues, some obvious – like the jeans – others more subtle, like the flattened grass nearby that formed a northwards path through dense bushes.

Israel’s Leftist Losers
Israel’s Leftist LosersFor thousands of years the Jews dreamed of reclaiming their country. The left had another dream.
It dreamed of a country run by bureaucrats that worked only three days a week. It dreamed of unions running monopolies that worked whenever they liked and charged whatever they wanted. It dreamed of children raised on collective farms without parents and of government as a Socialist café debate.
Most of all it dreamed of a country without conservatives. It still hasn’t gotten that wish.
Netanyahu’s victory hit hardest in Tel Aviv where, as Haaretz, the paper of the left, reports, “Leftist, secular Tel Aviv went to sleep last night cautiously optimistic only to wake up this morning in a state of utter and absolute devastation.”
Tel Aviv is ground zero for any Iranian nuclear attack. Its population density makes it an obvious target and Iran threatened it just last month. A nuclear strike on Tel Aviv would not only kill a lot of Israelis, it would also wipe out the country’s left.
Haifa and Tel Aviv are the only major cities in Israel that the left won in this election. And it was a close thing in traditionally “Red Haifa” whose union dockworkers these days are Middle Eastern Jews who vote right. The left took a quarter of the vote in Haifa to a fifth for Netanyahu’s conservative Likud party.
In Tel Aviv however, the Labor coalition and Meretz, the two major leftist parties, took nearly half of the vote. Amos Oz’s daughter told Haaretz that everyone in the left had been upbeat because everyone they knew was voting for the left. Now the leftist elite is once again forced to come to terms with the tragedy that much of the country doesn’t want to hand over land to terrorists, live on a communal farm or turn over the country to Marc Rich’s lawyer and his American backers who make Slim-Fast and KIND bars.
There are however days when they think Israel might be better off without certain parts of Tel Aviv.
The left doesn’t want a country. It wants a Berkeley food co-op. It wants a city with some ugly modernist architecture. It wants a campus with courses on media studies and gender in geography. It wants an arcade where unwashed lefties can tunelessly strum John Lennon songs on their vintage guitars. It wants cafes with Russian Futurist prints on the walls. It wants to be about excited about political change. Its only use for Israel was as a utopian theme park.
Its allegiance was not to Jewish history or democracy, but to its crackpot leftist fantasies. Now its fantasies are dead and it wants to kill Israel.
The left spitefully alienated every immigrant group from Holocaust survivors to Middle Eastern Jews to Russian Jews. It also had slurs for each of them. The Holocaust survivors were ‘Sabon’ (soap) and the Middle Eastern Jewish refugees were ‘Chakhchakhim’. That particular slur at an election rally cost Peres and Labor the 1981 election. Another slur at an election rally now hurt the left and boosted Netanyahu. But if you ask the left why it lost, it will blame Israeli racism.
The Israeli left slurred Middle Eastern Jews as “primitives” and used them as cheap labor to maintain the Kibbutz collectivist lifestyle until they stood up for themselves and the experiment in ‘equality’ ended. It slurred Russian immigrants as “prostitutes”, Settlers in ’67 Israel as “bloodsuckers” and Ultra-Orthodox as “parasites”.
Netanyahu’s likely coalition will lean heavily on parties that draw their support from Middle Eastern Jews, Settlers, Russian Jews and the Ultra-Orthodox.
These groups are also known as the majority of the country. That’s why the left lost. Again.
The left wants its clubhouse back and it can’t get it back. Demographics and immigration turned the ideal Israeli leftist, a wealthy secular Ashkenazi urbanite from an important family, into a minority. The only reason the left still exists is because its phantom Apartheid State of media outlets, courts and academics still maintains a death grip on the system.
The other reason that the Israeli left exists is that its malicious oppression of new immigrants splintered them into warring groups, much as the Democratic Party’s Tammany Hall did in the United States. The left couldn’t own them, but it did set them against each other in order to maintain a dysfunctional political system in which the strongest form of central authority comes from an unelected judiciary.
The left hasn’t managed to conquer Israel, but it has succeeded in dividing it. Every new group of immigrants has been indoctrinated, not with allegiance to the left (that was a lost cause early on) but with resentment of each other. The Russian Jews are told that they live badly because of the Ultra-Orthodox Jews. The Middle Eastern Jews are told that they live badly because of the Russian Jews. The Ultra-Orthodox are told that they live badly because of the Settlers. There’s plenty of overlap between these groups, but the tactic still works well enough for the left to stay in the game.
The real Apartheid State in Israel is this Deep State of the left. It’s the one you see on display when former heads of the Mossad and Shabak denounce Israel and Netanyahu. It’s in the phony media polls and exit polls that were skewed in favor of the left. It’s in the candidacy of a cretin like Herzog with his high voice and his old guard last name promising to do whatever Obama and the left tell him to do. The left tried to sell Herzog, the errand boy for international leftist criminals like Marc Rich and Octav Botnar, as the future of Israel. The public never bought it.
The left has no leadership. It has nothing to offer. It has no reason to exist except malice and spite.
Since the left lost control of Israel, it has been hell-bent on destroying it. The PLO deal was one step in a process meant to destroy Israel and return to the bi-national state that Ahdut HaAvodah, the ancestor of the Labor Party, and Ben Gurion had been flirting with in the twenties and thirties. The Two-State Solution was always meant to end in a One-State Solution.
The Israeli left has despaired of turning the country into the utopia that it wanted. There are still plenty of bureaucrats and union monopolies, but children are raised by their parents and most of them are born to the types of Jews that they hate.
The more philosophical members of the left see the “peace process” that they illegally initiated and passed as a cleanup operation that removes the failed experiment of Israel to make way for the Muslim “decolonization/ethnic cleansing” of Israel. They usually have homes in France and tenure in the US.
And the rest of the Jewish population that doesn’t have homes in France is meant to become Sabon.
The remainder had decided that the only hope for the leftist dream is to unite with their Socialist
comrades in the PLO and build a bi-national state using Muslim demographics to counter the demographic growth of Middle Eastern and Ultra-Orthodox Jews. Israel will become Lebanon. The Jews will become the Lebanese Christian minority in this utopian experiment and it doesn’t matter if they get killed as long as some of them go on living in pricey neighborhoods and strumming guitars in Tel Aviv.
It would be nice to think that the Israeli left was transformed into this twisted thing by the loss of its utopian dreams, but it was always like this. It was never patriotic. It was forced to become patriotic by the Muslim rejection of all its efforts at co-existence. It was never Zionist. Zionism was forced on it by the anti-Semitism of its Russian Socialist colleagues. It never wanted to be Jewish. It was forced to be. Muslim hate turned the Israeli left into the unwilling caretaker of a Jewish State. G-d kept Israel alive despite the left’s incompetence, its treasons and its slavish instinct for appeasement.
Today the left can no longer even pretend that it has a vision. All it can do is howl about peace and justice and how the Middle Eastern Jewish Schorim (blacks) and the Ultra-Orthodox Schorim (also blacks, for their hats) and the Russians destroyed ‘their’ country. Then it can go back to its French villas and have its bi-national Muslim state there.

The state of our Union
For the past few years, during the Obama administration for
sure, governments, federal to local have been violating the people's rights as
declared by the Constitution. This trend should be very disturbing to us
all. Life in America is becoming more like life in the old Soviet Union
and less like our founders envisioned and prepared for us and future
generations. This is true both economically and liberty wise.
Kicking people out of their homes is just one of the latest violations by a
government agency. We have witnessed warrant-less surveillance, forced
purchase of insurance, armed intrusions on businesses, denial of free speech,
confiscation of property, obstruction to religious practices, and many more
violations of our freedom and liberty. We need to cleans our governments
of those who put personal ambition above that of serving the people and
upholding the basics of our Constitution. We must resist those who demand
the replacement of our constitutional rights with the edicts of globalists,
Marxists, Socialists, Islamists, and others that disrespect our
Constitution. The time for non-involvement is long gone. It is time
to embrace the spirit of our founders and fight for the things that so many
have fought and some died for, life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.
I urge all to take charge of our destiny. Volunteer
for work on/with local and state executive committees, help vet new candidates,
select the right ones, work hard to elect true public servants, and stay
involved with those you elected to office.

What is missing
Regardless what the group is called conservatives have
missed the most important aspect of campaigning. A political campaign is in fact a sales
pitch. It must be delivered using basic
salesmanship. First it is important to
get the prospect’s (voter) attention, and then get him/her interested in the
pitch. The third and for sure the most
important part is convince the prospect of the benefits to him/her of agreeing
with what is being said. The Democrats
have dangled bright shiny beads and sparkling trinkets in front of the voters;
“free stuff”. Facts, logic, and reason do not evoke any emotional response,
except perhaps resentment. That is not
the emotion that will get people to agree with you. After showing and convincing the voter that
your ideas are of great benefit to him/her, the next step is to put the voter
into comfortable, happy, and safe place.
This is done by describing the pleasant situation that will be the
result of agreeing with what you are “pitching”. The finally of any speech must be a call to
action. If the first four parts are done
correctly the audience is ripe to follow a suggestion. Now is the time to “ask for the order”;
finalize the sales. Ask for their
support with specific suggestions.
Include how they will benefit through their support. Present precinct walking and phone banking as
a fun social event. If you are asking
for donations, show how and where they are to be used and how important it is
to raise whatever amount you need to raise.
It never ceases to amaze me how terrible our candidates
are at the art of salesmanship. I
attended several of Sarah Palin’s rallies. She really had as all in the palm of
her hand but there was no effective call to action at the end. The people left there eager to do something,
she should have given us better and specific direction.
Republican candidates will continue to come in second
best if they do not check out Dale Carnegie’s salesmanship courses. Let go of all previous conceptions about
campaigning. Realize you are selling something
and don’t be shy to use blatant sales tactics.
It might feel strange at first as it did to me. But once I took this approach seriously, it
worked wonders for me. I increased my
sales volume tenfold. I went from $20K to $200K a month after applying these
principles.

Self Reliance Lost
Entrepreneur-ism, Self Reliance, and Self betterment have
been replaced by chasing bright shiny things, free stuff, and submission to
socialist powers. This election the
American people have rejected fact, logic, and reason for lies, fairy tales,
and dammed lies. We have allowed
ourselves to be bamboozled by people who have lied to us in the past (“I have not had sex with that woman”),
broken promises they made (I will cut the
daffiest in half – reduce healthcare costs – strengthen relations with our
allies), and destroyed our economy (high
unemployment – ruined the nation’s credit rating) for now and the future. We picked a president that watched four Americans
be butchered and did nothing to stop it, gave tax payers and borrowed money to
contributors for failed businesses, and declared his intentions to bankrupt an
industry supplying most of America’s energy sources.
The psyche of the American public has done a 180. We do not consider the government as an
extension of ourselves anymore but as a separate entity that should rule over
and control our lives. A woman in New
Jersey was interviewed on television last week.
She complained that there is no power and now she has to walk up several
flights of stairs to get to her apartment.
She complained that the government is not there to help her. She whined that there is debris in the hall
way and stairwell. She can’t get to work
so she just sits and waits for help. It
never occurred to her to pick up a broom and clean the debris from the
apartment herself. She is wallowing in
self pity and the thought of helping herself never entered her mind.
The fault for this turn of events lies with the voting
public and the leaders of the Republican Party, the public for allowing to be
fooled and the Republican Party for orchestrating a woefully lame
campaign. There were so many
opportunities to turn the tide and deliver a Romney victory and the Republicans
wasted every one of them. One would
think that they learned something from the previous presidential election. Perhaps the reason is that both political
parties are cut from the same cloth.
Perhaps the Republican Party is not so much a “small government” party
as they claim.
Perhaps they did not fight the Democrats as hard as they
could have because their goals are not that different from the Democrats. Both sides are applauding the “ending of the war in Iraq” and
preparations to “end it” in
Afghanistan. Picking up one’s marbles
and going home is not a good end.
Winning the war is the only acceptable way to end a war, or all the
sacrifices made are in vain. Killing one
leader of the enemy does not mean victory.
No matter how many “victory laps
Obama takes” our enemies are well, alive, growing stronger, a bigger
threat, and danger than ever.
The election is over and this country is in the same mess
it has been for four years. We still
have a socialist front man for the Marxists in our government. The Senate is still under the control Harry
leaving us in a stalemate in Congress. Locally
the Republican Party has been just as ineffective in California. The American people are in denial of the
facts and need to be informed.
No amount of effort in registration and monetary support
will make a difference how the people will vote. We have had several decades of effort wasted
on Republican candidates only to suffer defeat after defeat. Facts, logic, and reason have not
worked. What is needed is an effective
way to educate the public and bring back the spirit that made this a once
great, strong, and prosperous nation. WE
need to appeal to the emotions of the people.
That is the only way we can get more support for our cause. We must show a direct benefit to voting with
us. We must promise better, more
valuable things and deliver to usurp the euphoric promises and scare tactics of
the Democrats. We face a huge and
daunting task that will take time. This
is the only way we can make any headway.
So let’s roll up our sleeves and get to work.

I am not a big supporter of Mitt Romney but having experience with turnaround companies I must clear something up. In the late 70's Pertec's techknowledgy was outdated and had little if any hope of continuing. So the new management bought up a bunch of computer companies with similar issues. They sold off everything that was thought to have future value. Cut expenses to the bone and went bankrupt. Top middle, and some lower level management did well (they saw what was coming and prepared for it) but most employees were about of a job. This was a calculated plan. My next encounter with a capital venture company was as a computer dealer of Rexon and other products. Two venture capital companies took over the operations of Rexon and a tape drive company started and operated by Sr. Ben Wang. Both companies had a large investment in technkowledgy that was being surpassed by new ones. The investment for these two companies to compete was just too much. The venture capital companies sold off everything they could and drained off everything leaving nothing but skin and bone. Rexon and Wangtech went under. Again management and the venture capital companies did very well while Rexon and Wangtech employees were out of jobs. There was no hope for any other outcome. The action taken by the venture capital companies was not antagonistic towards anyone. They did not start out to raid these companies. They brought about a strategic end. Much like an army would retreat and save what was possible. Yes the venture capital companies made a bunch of money but they did not steal from anyone. In a capitalistic system there is the possibility of losing. There is a risk involved with a chance of making a profit. Not all will survive, just like in nature. The company that Mitt Romney ran helped many companies to better times, some were doomed to fail. That is business. A much better outcome than when the government decides who will benefit from taxpayer funds. It is not a perfect system but the best that there is

Immigration Policy Changes
Children born to visitors to America (tourists, diplomats, students, and those who entered without a valid visa) residing in America cannot be eligible for citizenship simply due to being on American soil. Other than in emergency cases, neither the states, nor Federal Government have no obligation to pick up the medical expenses of foreign visitors. All visitors must have means to sustain themselves for the entire duration of visit prior to receiving a visa to enter America. They will not be eligible for any social services provided by State or Federal government. Those who entered our country illegally are subject to deportation based on an individual review of circumstances for them being in this country. Economic situation in their home country or medical needs without the means to pay for them is not a valid reason for them to stay. Only reasonable fear for their safety or life if they return to their home country will be considered as a reason for being allowed to continue their stay.

It is mind boggling to listen to people who one might think are critical thinkers, show how ignorant they are to the greatest danger to western enlightened way of life. A war waged for over 1,400 years is coming to a head and so many “leaders” refuse to see, hear, or talk about it candidly.
The word “PEACE” does not have the same meaning in Islam as it does to the rest of the world. To Islam “peace” can only reside in the lands under Islam and Sharia rule. Islam divides the world into two sections, the house of “peace”, and the house of war. The house of war is anywhere that is not under Islamist control. That is where you and I live. By this definition, the west is at war with Islam and Islam must defend itself by massacring all those who do not submit to Islam. The Koran insists that non-believers, without lifting a finger, are attacking Islam just by not accepting Allah as the one and only true god. Therefore Islam is defending itself as its followers go around the world destroying property, torturing, and murdering non-believers. The truth about Islam needs to be brought out in the open and recognized by the masses. That includes many Muslims who have no clue as how ridiculous the concept of non-aggression by the non-believers can threaten Muslims.
Those who believe that there is a reformation coming to Islam should be careful what they wish for. The reformation in Christianity was not a refining or change but reaffirming its original teachings. It erased the man made twisting of the religion, like the Salem witch trials and other abominations. A reformation within Islam will bring it closer for strict interpretation of the Koran where it states “never make friends with the people of the book”. The Jews and Christians are the people of the book (Bible). Unlike the Bible that teaches true peace and tolerance, the Koran promotes the eradication of all that is not Islam. Every Buddhist in Afghanistan was murdered and all historical records, temples, and historical artifacts were destroyed.
No one can get along with Islam except as a slave. If we all do not recognize this fact, we all be slaves or dead.

The enemy within
I encourage you all to campaign vigorously and positively for you candidate in the primaries. But be sure you vetted your candidate thoroughly. Forget about the opponent’s negatives. Just push all the reasons why your candidate should get elected. Negative campaigning in primary elections must be avoided. After the primary election it is our duty to get behind the primary winner of our party. This is very important. Even if your candidate is not selected put all your effort into supporting the one who was elected. That candidate most assuredly is much closer to your beliefs than the opposing party’s candidate. We can’t all have everything our way 100%. Realizing this and being able to live with is the mature thing to do. Let’s not be little children, pick up our marbles and go home. The candidate of our party is the one to support. I urge all grass roots workers to do the responsible thing. That goes especially for the candidates who did not make the cut. Do not let your disappointment punish your party’s candidate by voting for some miner candidate who you know has no chance of being elected or not voting at all which is tantamount to voting for the opposition. If you analyze the situation critically and logically, you will realize that your party’s candidate is with you at least 80% of the way, much closer to your beliefs than the opposition’s candidate. Do not cut off your nose to spite your face. You will be hurting yourself. There may be exceptions, for instance if the Democrat is more of a conservative (Highly unlikely) than the Republican or the Republican candidate is a plant by the Dems. How could the latter happen you ask? Only by us not ferreting that candidate out in the primaries. The enemy within our Party has been us. We must not lose one other election due to childish emotions. There is too much at stake.
