The Threat of Islamic Jihad

In our continued effort to feature our favorite bloggers and news sites until the new year, we've chosen two today that we feel are of particular importance.  After the surprise attack by Muslims, carried out in the name of Allah and Islam, we would never have thought that recent developments would bring us to a point where we elect a president of questionable background and ties to Islam.  It never crossed our minds that we would be engaged in a battle to stop the construction of a Muslim Mosque in the shadow of where the World Trade Center's Twin Towers once stood. 


It is unimaginable that we have citizens who've earned the name "truthers" because they are convinced that our government committed such an atrocity.  Nor can we think of anything more un-American than former Governor Jesse Ventura's program entitled "Conspiracy Theories."  We find as much validity to his program as we did to the realism of his wresting career.


We have a Secretary of Homeland Security who has limited ability to understand the threat that we face in Islamic Jihad.  There are entirely too many Americans who are completely clueless, and don't believe it can happen here again.  It appears to us that every plot that has been thwarted has been due to incompetence on the part of the Jihadists, and just plain dumb luck.  Sting operations, in our opinion, don't deserve the press coverage they have received because the criminals were under surveillance all the time, and the scenario was planned by the FBI.


One blogger recently wrote that he'd stopped blogging because he received no comments to his articles.  We receive very few, even though our stats indicate that people have begun to read our blog since our return.  One doesn't fight fear with fear.  "Aren't you afraid that your name will appear on some list?" I was recently asked.  To which I replied that I'm sure it already is.  But we've said it before and say it again.  We're under a threat by religious fanatics who have vowed to destroy us.  Either we sit idly back and wait for the next shoe to drop, or we awaken our fellow Americans from their apathetic slumber.


These two bloggers who are featured today have undertaken the responsibility to do just that:  Keep America informed. 


We begin with Pamela Geller, owner of Atlas Shrugs.  A woman of knowledge and courage, one can always stay informed by reading her blog.  Below is a sample of her latest warning:


Shock Audio: New Black Panther Leader Reveals Collusion at NYC Meeting With Ahmadinejad to Build Alliance, Secure Raw Materials and Overthrow America
It is important to remember Obama's close ties to these haters and subversives. Louis Farrakhan and Obama have a long history, and it was Obama's Department of Justice that refused to prosecute the Black Panthers who were threatening white voters in Philly.


This is a terrible thing, but it was expected. What makes it deadly is that Obama is in the White House.


Geraldo Rivera had me on with this Black Panther Nazi, Malik Shabazz, equating the two of us (here).


Hat tip The Blaze.



In my book: The Post-American Presidency: The Obama Administration's War on America


Louis Farrakhan proclaimed Obama to be the messiah back in October 2008: “You are the instruments that God is gonna use to bring about universal change, and that is why Barack has captured the youth. And he has involved young people in a political process that they didn’t care anything about. That’s a sign. When the Messiah speaks, the youth will hear, and the Messiah is absolutely speaking.”[i] It became a joke, particularly among Republicans and conservatives, to call Obama the Messiah in view of the extravagant praise – and extravagant hopes – that were attached to him during the campaign.
[...]
The Reverend Jeremiah Wright of Trinity United Church of Christ, of which Obama was a member for twenty years, had roots in both Islam and economic radicalism: “But Wright was a former Muslim and black nationalist who had studied at Howard and Chicago, and Trinity’s guiding principles – what the church calls the ‘Black Value System’-- included a ‘Disavowal of the Pursuit of Middleclassness.’”[i] Wright was also a close associate of Nation of Islam leader Louis Farrakhan, who in November 2009 offered a doggerel version of Obama’s lofty post-American internationalism: “America,” he declared, “has run out of time. It is the time of the setting of the sun on the Western world.”[ii]

BLACK PANTHERS FOR OBAMA

The mainstream media won't touch that story with a 10 foot pole.  After all it was they who helped Obama get elected with their biased reporting and partisanship.  It is up to independent bloggers and authors such as Pamella Geller to keep us informed about the threat of Islamic Jihad.  We recommend that you read her blog. It is definitely one of our very favorite sources of credible information.

Our next featured blog is "Winds of Jihad, by Sheik'yermami".  This blog is undergoing some renovating and it can now be reached at www.sheikyermami.com .  We were first introduced to this site via an email.  We were hooked by the information contained therein, and we were captivated by the humor of the site's owner.  The name Sheik'yermami makes me smile every time I see it.  It's so incredibly clever!

We've never quite understood why so many Americans are reluctant to read about the threat of radical Islam.  We admire those who write the truth and keep us informed.  As one Robert Spenser wrote in this blog, "I'm not Islamophobic, I'm Islamorealistic."  Yes, we have to keep tabs on the increasing size of government, the lack of employment, the runaway spending, and the health care mess that this administration has created.  But we cannot turn a blind eye to the growing problem, and the increasing threat to our sovereignty by Muslim Jihadists. We need to be realistic.  Again, we recommend that you bookmark this page and read it often.  Many of the stories and articles in it will never appear in the mainstream media.

Iran

Thug-In-Chief: “Iran has become a nuclear country”



He has said this before. “Ahmadinejad: Iran is now a nuclear state,” from Iran’s PressTV, December 28: but not to worry, its all for peaceful purposes, like wiping Israel off the face of the earth….


Carl in J’lem is wondering: What will it take for the World to stop pretending that Iran is bluffing and to take the threat posed by Ayatollah Ali Khameni and Mahmoud Ahmadinejad seriously? Here’s an example of someone who is not taking them seriously.


Clicking on the title will take the reader to the complete essay.
We realize that many of our readers are familiar with most of these sites, and we regret if we're being repetitive.  However, we're hoping to reach some of our newest readers, especially the young people.  We still recall those days of youth when we felt the world was our oyster, and nothing could ever go wrong.  We were invincible and indestructible.  We believe that we had more reason to believe that then than young people today.  Knowledge is power, and the more you know about those who have vowed to conquer and destroy you, the better prepared you will be to meet your enemy head on
