Islamic Rage: Why America Has Earned It
What is the root of Islamic rage? Is it America’s foreign policy or our unfair bias toward “the Jews?” Not hardly. These are but convenient alibis for the true reason that is, metaphorically speaking, penis envy. Islam is the backwash of a moon-god cult, the bloody, sweat-dream of a psychopath who conquered by the sword and whose ghost governs from the grave with fear and loathing.
The Islamists hate the West because they hate what has propelled the West to splendor – the God of the Bible. Freedom, prosperity and opportunity are the results of the people of the Book taking the principles of the Book seriously. And now you know why Palestinians march with abortionists and homosexuals, why the liberal and the jihadist share common ground — they have a mutual enemy: the one true God.
At Annapolis, answering a cadet’s question about “just warfare” [like Iraq], Ravi Zacharias answered, “The intensity is so great. If you go into Pakistan today there are nearly 80,000 Madras’ [schools] where 8, 9, and 10 year olds are studying their scriptures everyday … tens of thousands are being indoctrinated with hate. That calls for a just war and a just resistance.”
What is the Western response in preparation for Jihads-R-Us? More foreign aid, more student visas, and bowing both literally and figuratively in front of the representatives of the countries that burn our flag, assault our embassies and drag our Ambassador’s tortured, dead torso through the streets. Their children are groomed to be terrorists with hearts filled with hate while ours are indoctrinated to ignore conflict and surrender with hearts filled with self-esteem.
HAMMER TIME
On a tape claiming responsibility for the atrocities in Madrid, a man is heard to say, “We choose death, while you choose life.” … It is a mindset that rejoices in suicide, incites murder, and celebrates every death we mourn. And we who stand on the other side of the line must be equally clear and certain of our convictions. We do love life…. We believe in the values that uphold the dignity of life, tolerance, and freedom, and the right of conscience. And we know that this way of life is worth defending. There is no neutral ground — no neutral ground — in the fight between civilization and terror, because there is no neutral ground between good and evil, freedom and slavery, and life and death.
– President Bush In speech of March 19, 2004
Our time, like the time of Antiochus and that of the Caliphs, calls for a hammer yet we’ve conjured a pin-cushion. Our time cries for a Charles Martel or a Judas Maccabeus but has settled for a Barack Obama.
A FATWA ON FATWAS
As for myself, I do love life (but you can hold the Pepsi!) The proper response to Islamic hegemony is to realize that we are at war, know our enemy and then meet them on the battlefield to give them exactly what they “love” – death, and lots of it. Pass out virgin destinies to Jihadists like Nick’s cash register from It’s A Wonderful Life passed out angel’s wings. Cut off aid to those that teach hatred in their schools and stop handing out permission slips for their radicalized children to “study” in our Universities. And put the Muslim world on notice that the next terrorist action against any American city, institution or even group of citizens will trigger a Tomahawk chop to that little black stone of theirs in Mecca.
If you’re not willing to do at least that, then get used to body parts and body bags, candle light vigils, capitulation. And you might want to order the Arabic version of Rosetta Stone.
