A Religious and Unconventional War

Update II (9/12): And bringing up the rear are Literal Barrage, Tel-Chai Nation, Flopping Aces, and League of the Scarlet Pimpernel.

Everyday, sometimes several times a day, there’s another story about Muslims blowing up something or somebody.

Update: Commenter Judy writes (emphases added):

“Later that day [9/11/01] I made my way home on an empty beltway. I could not take the usual route home because the highways were closed. There were people in the elevator of my building smiling, laughing and happy. There was a party on one of the floors. (Did I mention that they were all Muslims?) I moved when my lease was up…The next morning I stopped for coffee at my then usual place. Up until that day I thought the man behind the counter was Hispanic. I found out that day he was Palestinian. He smiled and gloated with saying “good now America will now how we feel”. He also volunteered that he pledged to fight for jihad before “they” (whoever they are) let him leave Palestine to come to the US. [I called the FBI on him — he disappeared a couple of days later.]”

That’s one thing you can do, reader. Call the FBI on Muslims who say things like this. It may not accomplish anything (unless they’re here illegally), but at least you’ll be doing something. Now, about that southern border…

More thoughts… Commenter and blogger Tyrone’s comment triggered this thought: I think the new World Trade Center towers, or some other building, should be erected in place of the former WTC. I absolutely hate the idea of a memorial. We don’t need to sit around looking at stone and concrete “remembering.” We need to rebuild the site and get back to work!

About the war in Iraq, I always that Bush went about it the wrong way. He should have sent in ground troops only after bombing cities where Al Qaeda thugs were hiding, then go in. Round them up, execute the leaders, and let everyone else know they’d better stop hiding terrorists, or else. I hate the mealy-mouthed way America is fighting…against a weak enemy, at that! However, I’m more hopeful than writer Greg Crosby was back in 2004.

I say, Let the Ethnic/Religious Profiling Begin!

Conventionally, countries fight wars against other countries. Territory is well-defined, and the objective — unconditional surrender — is clear. World War II is always a good illustration. Adolf Hitler’s desire for power obviously consumed him. As he marched through Europe, plotting, conquering, and destroying, weaker or just plain cowardly countries surrendered. Germany was eventually defeated and Hitler killed himself before he could face man’s justice.

While some Americans hand-wring over the atomic bombs dropped on Japan — which ended the war, by the way — lost in the lament are Japan’s atrocities. Declaring war on us, the Japanese attacked Pearl Harbor and conquered other territories in the Pacific. The Allied forces asked Japan to surrender unconditionally in July of 1945, and the country refused. Then came the bombs. Japan surrendered in August.

In the current war against terrorism, we’re fighting against an enemy who hides like a rat everywhere. I call him the Islamofacsist, a psychotic and murderous adherent of a religion under which “freedom” and “peace” are entirely foreign concepts. Columnist Diana West names the enemy, too.

There are billions of Muslims on the globe, and Islamofacists hide among them. The war against terrorism is an unconventional war, so one can’t expect it to look, feel, or sound like WWII.

As wild as it may seem to Americans, especially heathens, the war against terror is a religious war. Whether the enemy chooses to conquer us by force with bombs and flaming airplanes, or by our own suicidal and weak-willed acceptance of their demands to change our way of life (swimming pools today; the legal system tomorrow) to adhere to their religious laws, he will attempt to conquer us by any means necessary.

But he is a weak enemy, one that America could easily vanquish. If the way things are going in Michigan is any indication of what the future holds…

As flawed as America may be, it is unique among the ordinary. “Freedom” is not just a word or an idea; this country, above all others, every last one, has been able to put the word into action as the world has never seen. In this country, you can be a Muslim without fear of persecution. The problems begin when you, as a Muslim, demand that our banking system, our legal system, our whole way of life, change to accommodate you. I’m convinced that changing this country to accommodate Islam is the goal of even moderate Muslims.

People like me see clearly what’s going on, but so far, speaking out against Islam is unpopular at the moment, even in the middle of a freakin’ war against their radical members. But speak out, I will continue to do until I’m in my grave. In my unpopular opinion, America should be wary of the entire religion, not just the homicidal maniacs with a h***-on for virgins in the afterlife.

Is that anathema to the American spirit? Perhaps. But the enemy is everywhere, even here in our own country, plotting and scheming. Until so-called moderate Muslims and all the rest get on the ball and help root out this cancer, I will continue to hand down indictments against all of them.

Today marks the 5th anniversary of the terrorist attacks against the United States. There are many blogger tributes out there, and I’m linking to as many as I can.

Questions for readers:

1) What was your first reaction on September 11, 2001?

— I was about to leave for the hair salon, enjoying the remaining days of a vacation. I watched the “Today” show back then. That morning I noticed Matt Lauer looking off-camera during an interview. Then I saw a smoking building. I thought it was an ordinary building fire. Like everyone else, I couldn’t have imagined what was really going on. About an hour later I thought, It was that Muslim maniac, bin…something. Read the rest of my where-were-you-on-9/11 story.

2) How do you feel about it now?

—This post and the entire blog should give you a hint.

Addendum: A bittersweet consequence of Muslims elected to office and becoming a majority in any state or city in this U.S. is that the so-called separation of church and state will be weakened. It’s bitter because Christianity was pushed out of the public square long ago, and Islam will be pushed into it (I’ll take up arms before I live under sharia); it’s sweet because I’ll get to tell inane liberals, “Told you so. You think Christianity was your enemy, you hare-brained dolts? Openly homosexual Americans, watch out! The Christian faith does not require that unbelievers live under theological rules, nor does it force itself upon anyone or demand that whole societies prostrate themselves before it.”

I’ll say a lot more than that, but you get the idea.
