What makes us think that every war should mirror the last one? When we look at the history of military battles each one was fought differently, i.e., the Crimea war was much different to the First World War, the Second World War was different from the First World War, then we have the Vietnam war which once again was fought differently. Now in our own time we face another type of war, that of the terrorist war and make NO mistake it is WAR!
The world made a mistake in thinking that Islamofacism was a war between Jews and Arabs. While different Governments tut tutted as the Jewish people once again became hostages to fortune as they were kidnapped from official Olympic buildings and held hostage on air flights, still the world thought 'this is not our problem it is a Jewish problem', and then just as quickly went back to sleep. Once again as it had happened in Nazi Germany the prevailing ethos was 'it's not happening to me so it doesn't matter' took effect and now the West is feeling the consequences of that philosophy.
When Tony Blair was voted in as Prime Minister a secret under the table deal was sorted out by his Government and Islamic leaders who had been forced to flee their native lands. The Blair government in affect was ready to look the other way while vicious Islamic fundamentalist leaders such as Islamic cleric Abu Hamza al-Masri ranted his venom and hatred of the West in the streets of London. It was during this particular time under Tony Blair's watch that London was given the nickname Londonstan. By taking the road of least resistance and appeasement Tony Blair also helped orchestrate the London bombings of July 7th 2005 by proxy. You cannot appease or live peacefully beside evil, it is about as impossible as trying to tame a wild tiger by holding its tail, the tiger will eventually turn around and devour you!
The war with the Islamofacists did not happen overnight it was a progressive offensive war undertaken by these terrorists against free nations everywhere. We only have to remember back to the Iranian Embassy hostage siege where Americans were kept captive from 1979 till 1981, where once he was elected President, Ronald Reagan negotiated their release. Once President Reagan came to power, the Iranian government could not determine how tough this President would be, as he was displaying no outward signs of timidity as expressed by the preceding President.
The terror offensive did not end there, as we view a time line of intensifying violence where in 1983 the Islamofacists were responsible for bombing the U.S embassy in Beirut, Lebanon killing 63 people and injuring hundreds . A few months later another explosion hit American and French compounds murdering 241 American soldiers and 58 Frenchmen. Both bombs were counted as a victory for the Islamic Jihad terrorist organization.
In 1985 we saw where once again the terrorists struck a TWA airliner as the plane was forced to fly from one country to another and though some hostages were freed this does NOT excuse the torture and murder of a U.S servicemen who happened to be on board. During this ordeal the American Government tried to make the best deal from two evils, they pressured the Israeli government into releasing 435 terrorist prisoners. As we can see in hindsight making 'deals' with terrorists only encourages them to continue in the same pattern. It was the terror organization Hezbollah who were responsible for the hijacking of TWA Flight 847.
Once again in 1985 the world watched as the cruise ship the Achille Lauro was overtaken by Palestinian Islamofacists, where they then murdered an elderly gentleman Leon Klinghoffer because his name was Jewish. It did not matter to these black hearted Muslim fascists that he was celebrating his wedding anniversary to his beloved wife, Mr. Klinghoffer's 'crime' was to have been born Jewish/American, therefore he was expendable!
The terror does not end there as Westerners were kidnapped in Lebanon in 1987 and kept hostage for years, these were NOT soldiers but ordinary American, English and Irish citizens on work visa's, they were teachers, journalists and diplomats. These terrorists even kidnapped the English negotiator Terry Waite who was trying to orchestrate the release of these hostages. As we see, negotiation does NOT work with those driven by a hatefilled ideology and NOT common sense for there is NO logic to hate! After many years of torture and brutality the hostages were finally freed including the American Terry Anderson, the Irishman Brian Keenan, John McCarthy with Terry Waite among others.
Even though the West has been under attack for these many decades many sit astonished as the war with Islamofacists intensifies. It is astounding that rather than place the blame with the terrorists many are making the mistake of blaming the victims, the Nation of Israel and America as the terror groups Hezbollah, Hamas and the Jihadists sit and laugh at the stupidity of those who have fallen for their propoganda!
Yet through all these terrorist atrocities the appeasement policy of many Governments gained ground as political leaders cringed in fear before these fascist leaders. One in particular was Omar Bari who was living in England, (while also claiming approximately 3 thousand dollars a month on welfare benefits including a car for the disabled) and here are some of the remarks made by Omar Bakri in an interview after he had been expelled from England, "I believe that one day honest Muslims in the United Kingdom will, God willing, turn it into "Islamistan," like what the first Muslims did in Eritrea and Indonesia. The great dream of Islam will come true. Muslims dream to see flags that read: "There is no god but Allah" fluttering in the wind on top of Big Ben and the House of Commons, God willing." A chilling scenario indeed!
Yet have many people reached the stage where they trust terrorist regimes which thrive in countries such as Iran, Syria, Palestine and Lebanon and place ALL the blame for these terrorist atrocities at the feet of Israel and America? Did America deserve to be hit on September 11th 2001?According to many revisionist historians and liberals they did!
When we look back at history more Muslims have murdered Muslims than any other nation on earth. The Iran/ Iraq war which lasted from 1980 until 1988 killed approximately 1 million people the slaughter was so great that one can only speculate as to the hundreds of thousands who were butchered by their fellow Muslims. The different factions of Muslims have been in an internal warfare for centuries, with the Sunni, Shiites, Sufi's and other splinters of Islam warring against each other. Yet according to many Muslims they consider themselves to be a peaceful religion. How so? Are Catholics slaughtering fellow Catholics? Are Lutherans murdering their fellow Lutherans? Are Baptists killing their fellow believers? NO! It seems only Muslims kill their own!
When the Iranian embassy was under siege in London in 1980 why did the elite British force the SAS storm the building and save the hostages? Why didn't the British government simply let Muslims murder their fellow Muslims. Once again we see that it was Muslim terrorists who held their fellow Muslims hostage. And it was a Western Power who came to the aid of the Muslims held captive!
The Muslims believe that America wishes to destroy them, then why did America go to the aid of the Muslims in the former war torn Yugoslavia? It was not an 'American war' it was very much a European issue, yet the Europeans waited on America to act and America did go to the aid of the beleaguered Muslims. When the massacre happened in Srebrencia where Ratko Mladic committed genocide against the Muslims, the Americans bombarded the Serbs till their leader Slobodan Milosevic was forced to enter into peace negotiations. We are now aware of what happened to that vile genocidal maniac the former President Milosevic. If the world did not care for Muslims, then why was Milosevic prosecuted?
Once again in Mogadishu America came to the aid of the Somali people, only to find the Muslims turn on the Americans and other Western Nations who in an effort to help the suffering people instead found themselves under attack! Can anyone forget the horrific scene of those poor dead U.S soldiers being dragged through the streets? Yet once again somehow Americans are to blame for trying to help? Here we read a recent excerpt from a Somali news report dated 2006, "Somali Muslims who fail to perform daily prayers will be killed in accordance with Qur'anic law under a new edict issued by a leading cleric in the Islamic courts union that controls Mogadishu." That's Muslim tolerance for you!
Let us also look at the scale of this issue of land. The Middle East is approximately 2,061,000 square miles, Israel on its own only takes up approximately 8,000 square miles, yet Muslims cannot bear to allow the Israeli's 8,000 square miles? Why is this so? For it is NOT the Israeli's who are telling the Iranians to leave their own land, nor are they screaming for Syria to leave their land. Yet both Iran and Syria cannot allow the Israeli people a mere 8,000 square miles? The Israeli people are willing to live peacefully beside their Muslims neighbours it is the Muslims themselves who wish to obliterate Israel from the face of the map, why? We must remember Israel is a Sovereign nation.
As for the 'Palestinian' people, when Yasser Arafat was alive he received billions of dollars in aid from Western countries to build a proper infrastructure for the Palestinian people. Yet where are the new hospitals, nursing homes, schools, playgrounds community centres, roads? Oh yes, of course the money was siphoned off into a Swiss bank account! Yet we also see these terrorist organizations such as Hamas and Hezbollah are able to buy sophisticated weaponry, they can also make suicide bombs and other assorted bombs and machine guns. Who is providing and paying for this arsenal of evil?
We also often hear the word 'Jihad' mentioned yet does not Jihad mean a spiritual battle within the Muslim person and the spiritual cleansing of the soul? If so, then why are Muslims using and abusing this word in order to murder innocent people? Another question to ask is why are there NO Muslim Clerics willing to criticize this abuse of such a 'holy' word? Actually there are NO Muslim clerics willing to criticize any of the above mentioned acts of terrorism done by Hezbollah, Hamas or the Islamic Jihadists. Why?
Muslims also make the claim that Westerners are infidels and have loose or no morals, there is some justification for this thinking. Many Western countries do promote pornography, and some countries have legalized prostitution, no country is perfect. Yet is that reason enough to cause brutal acts of terrorism? Is it also not the case that when a female relative is raped the male relatives then commit what is known as honour killing in order to salvage the 'family name' and maintain its pride? Where is the compassion? There doesn't seem to be too much if you're a Muslim woman.
When we look at the Muslim faith do they not make the claim that all Muslims who are martyred will upon reaching Heaven gain for themselves 70 virgins? Here is a quote from a leader of Hamas, Muhammad Abu Wardeh, as he encourages his suicide bombers, "I described to him how God would compensate the martyr for sacrificing his life for his land. If you become a martyr, God will give you 70 virgins, 70 wives and everlasting happiness." There may be many things wrong with the West, but we do NOT deprave or sexualize Heaven into a LUST festival!
Just as we have our Desert Fathers who preached mortification, purity and holiness so that we may all enter into the Holiness that is Heaven untouched by any impurity. These are the words of Muslim fathers on their version of 'heaven', "Each time we sleep with a houri we find her virgin. Besides, the penis of the Elected never softens. The erection is eternal; the sensation that you feel each time you make love is utterly delicious and out of this world and were you to experience it in this world you would faint. Each chosen one [ie Muslim] will marry seventy [sic] houris, besides the women he married on earth, and all will have appetizing vaginas." So according to Islam Heaven is little more than a house of prostitution!
No country is perfect nor are it's people as we all are frail human beings with our own fears and vulnerabilities, this though does not drive all people to commit violent acts of atrocities because our belief system is different. Muslims also claim to be a people of peace if so then why do so many support or benignly co-operate with terrorists on a daily basis by making excuses for what is the inexcusable, crimes against humanity? It is time that the more peaceful elements of Islam raised it's voice to overcome the raucous and rabid hatred of the Islamofacists, lest they be held accountable alongside the terrorists! To paraphrase an old saying, 'evil can only prosper when good men say and do nothing'.
When the tsunami struck parts of Indonesia where the Muslims are the majority it was the Western countries who donated the MOST amount of money to the needy families. The super wealthy Muslim countries donated the LEAST! As Paul Wolowitz said, "There's been very little generosity so far from parts of the Muslim world that are big on talking about jihad and other things, but when 200,000 people - all of them Muslim in the case of Indonesia - died in this catastrophe, there's not much help forthcoming." It seems the Muslims have become very professional at taking lives, and less than generous at trying to save lives. The Israeli Government and its people donated $ 100,000 to each affected country they also dispatched 150 IDF doctors and rescue workers as well as assisting with food, 9 tonnes of medicine, water, thouands of blankets, tents, sheeting and power generators to the stricken area's. Did the Muslims reject this offer because it came from Jewish hands? NO!
Rather than attack the Jews for simply existing or America for trying to help and aid the stricken countries let us instead place the blame for terrorist attacks on the people who are at fault and that is the Islamofacists who epitomise evil in our own time and hour.
Let us pray that when the day of evil arrives God does not find us sleeping.
Peace of Christ to ALL
