The Tea Party movement in my locale fought a relentless battle against local and national elites. They stood up to the hatred spewed forth by their neighbors and refused to compromise. However, they willingly blinded themselves to a threat greater than Obama, Pelosi and Reid.
There is a friend whom I greatly respect. She's a hard working single mother doing her best to raise her children. She attends school full time, works part time, and tries to spend every available moment with her kids. She is a strong conservative, and holds faith in God. Yet, her and I differ on an issue of extreme importance.
For quite a while, Fox News boldly stood in the gap left wide open by the MSM (Main Stream Media) and attempted to unabashedly stand for the truth. Yet now they have chosen the wrong side in an issue which directly relates to the security of America - and the world as well.
What is the issue of contention which all three above share? Islam. Instead of recognizing that it has always been a Fascist "religion" bent on world domination, they claim instead that it was always based upon peace and only recently has been "hijacked" by radicals. They forget that the word Islam being translated means "submission."
Geert Wilders has taken the literal "stand" for not only the freedom of speech, but also the "stand" against the Islamization of Europe. He is now being vilified by many of the same conservatives who refuse to open their eyes to the truth about Islam.
Islam was started by a man who was certainly sane, just as Hitler was. As soon as his followers grew in numbers and strength, Mohammad launched a holy war throughout the region - conquering and slaughtering many. He gave permission for men to have four wives (with himself being allowed more) while he married a child and consummated the relationship when she was only nine years old. As such, child marriage is a huge problem in the Islamic nations, and the problem is growing in England, Canada, and the United States as well. Also, as the spoils of war, he gave permission for his soldiers to take females as slaves and to have their way with them. Since the women were slaves, they would not count against the wifely limit of four.
Mohammad also created the institute of dhimmitude. In practice, it gave non-Muslims living within Islamic controlled territories the option to either convert, or live under domination as second class citizens. In addition, those Dhimmis were required to pay the jizya - basically a blackmail fee. This institution is still in effect today.
Muslims later on sacked and overran Christian controlled Jerusalem, slaughtering everyone within. Many critics will state that the Christians did the same during the Crusades, thus this point is not valid. These same critics will also point out Christian atrocities such as the Inquisition. What they do not realize (or fail to acknowledge) is that the Inquisition was instigated by the Roman Catholic church and, during which, slaughtered many Protestant Christians as well as Jews, athiest, and so-called witches, and that the Crusades was a direct response to the Islamic invasion. That being said, it is a fact that today, every three months, more people are slaughtered by Muslims than those who lost their lives during the entire Inquisition.
As well, Islam has never kept its violent hands to the region of the Middle East. Indeed, its Jihads took Muslims throughout Europe all the way to Spain. Today, we see Muslims wage their Jihads all over the world - China, Russia, the Philippines, Africa, France, The Netherlands, England, and The United States of America are just a few of the places that currently experience Islam's bloody grasp.
Yet Islam's Jihad isn't always of the violent kind. It also seeks to instill its control through peaceful means such as the Islamic block within the United Nations (UN) attempts to ban any criticism of the religion. In addition, England is currently facing the rise of its Muslim citizens as Sharia law is forced down its throat. One needs only to keep a cursory eye on the events happening in that country (as well as most of Europe) for this to be seen.
However, it is happening in the United States as well. CAIR (Council on American-Islamic Relations) is the most vocal of the Muslim "advocacy"groups within this nation. Whenever someone speaks up for the truth of what is happening within Islam, CAIR's lawyers will drag them to court in an attempt to intimidate and silence them. Yet it is (or should be) well known that CAIR is an "Unindicted Co-Conspirator in the terror-finance trial against the Holy Land Foundation and its former officials." As well, "federal law [enforcement believe] that [CAIR is] the product of a Hamas-support network in the United States."
When one examines the special rights given to Islam within a country that says "Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion," the inconsistencies are amazing. Text books have been written where children are literally taught Islam. Public funds are used to build and maintain foot baths in airports, and are also used to create special prayer rooms in universities and other public institutions. As well, our judicial system has given Muslims the permission to take numerous breaks during their employment so that their daily prayer requirements may be met. The same rights are not extended to any other religion within the United States. Imagine the outcry if the federal government gave the same "concessions" to Christians!
The federal government itself is being corrupted within as many "mid-level" employees have been either harassed or fired due to the influence of Muslims who were "offended" by those employee's firm stand against the Islamization of the United States.
As this is unconstitutional, one might ask why it is done. Simple. It all goes back to organizations such as CAIR along with American citizens' unwillingness to be called "bigots" or "racists." Islam is slowly but surly legislating itself as the "supreme religion" within America by playing on the fears of its citizens.
All of this being said, it is important to recognize that not all Muslims are terrorists bent upon world domination. Take Christians for example. All of us either are or know of Christians who can quote the bible to an extreme extant relevant to any topic. Other Christians know a few verses by heart and attend Church. Yet still some have never read all the bible, never go to church, yet still call themselves Christians. It is the same with Muslims. There are differing degrees within all religions when one considers their followers. What one must acknowledge, however, is that those Muslims who studiously follow their holy book, the Koran, are the ones most apt to commit either terrorism or peaceful jihad. A prime example of this are the many converts to the "religion of peace" who invariably find themselves at odds with the civilized world as they engage upon acts of violence which the Koran encourages. It is a well established fact that those who convert to a religion are usually quite zealous about it.
In closing, it greatly disturbs me when otherwise staunch supporters of freedom make concessions towards a political ideology which hides under the guise of "religion." In reality, its a contradiction of their very beliefs. How can one shout their support for freedom of all, while at the same time embrace an ideology which seeks to limit the freedoms of the entire world? Why do these same people attack those of us who are willing to stand in the gap left open by them and liberals? Why are we vilified while those who strip women of equal rights, enslave others, rape and murder others, and seek to impose their will - all in the name of their religion - are held up as the beacon of "peace?"
When it comes to freedom, are American conservatives simply all "talk," or do they have the chutzpa to make a stand even when it'll make them unpopular? So far, it seems that when the going gets rough, they go running!

Duplicity
In 1993, the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms (BATF) raided the Branch Davidian complex in Waco, Texas after a 51 day siege of the compound which resulted in 82 deaths – women and children included. Earlier this year, the Department of Homeland Defense issued a report warning of “Right Wing Extremism.” Among some of the warning signs were ex-military personal, those who want to protect our borders, those who oppose illegal immigration, tax protesters and those who are opposed to the election of Barack Obama. In September, the police force was warned again concerning “Right Wing Extremism” with basically the same charges being levied. Yet during recent years, hard evidence (including video) has arisen revealing Islamic paramilitary compounds within this nation’s borders training militants for actual combat. The Federal government has swept all of this information aside and has effectively hidden it. Just today, the Christian Action Network released to Robert Spencer, of Jihad Watch, new video showing Muslim women training in yet another camp located in Hancock, NY. The question is, why the double standard?
The Branch Davidian cult, led by David Koresh, was a secluded group. They did not have an active paramilitary camp. They were in effect survivalists, though no threat to the government or American citizens. Yet on February 28, 1993, the BATF raided the complex “to serve arrest and search warrants as part of an investigation into illegal possession of firearms and explosives there.” - Frontline: Waco – The Inside Story
After a 51 day siege, where the complex was surrounded and tactics such as blaring loud music through the night were used to weaken the resistance of the Davidians, the BATF launched an assault by firing gas canisters into the complex and then used a tank to literally break through the compound walls. In addition to the 82 deaths, 9 Davidians were handed hefty prison sentences. Contrary to initial federal claims, discrepancies were found which have led many to believe that the Federal government proceeded illegally. Seven of the Davidians who received their sentencing afterwards had them reduced, and eventually all but one of the seven were released from prison. As well, “Two ATF supervisors, Chuck Sarabyn and Phillip Chojinacki, were fired, although they were later reinstated at a lower rank.” - Frontline: Waco – The Inside Story, FAQ 10
All of this was done by the Federal government against it’s own citizens 16 years ago, yet today’s active Islamic paramilitary camps are being either ignored or silently accepted. This is being sanctioned despite the hard facts of Islamic terrorism currently active around the world.
No matter how hard I wrack my brain in an attempt to find similar terrorist acts committed by followers of other religions, no examples arise that even begin to match the scope of what the followers of the so called “Religion of Peace” are committing. The closest I can come to is the Irish Republican Army (IRA) conflict. Yet this was a conflict that had its roots deep within British history. As well, the conflict remained almost exclusive to the British Isles. Although hard and bloody, and I do not intend in any way to lessen the losses suffered, only around 3,000 lives were lost in total since the violence began in the late 1960’s.
Islam, however, is a different story. In one day alone, September 11th, 2001, the entire death total suffered in the IRA/British conflict was inflicted upon innocent American citizens. 2,996 lives were lost as Islamic terrorists crashed airliners into the World Trade Center, the Pentagon, and an empty field in central Pennsylvania.
Since then, the "Religion of Peace" has wracked up a mind boggling 14,471 terrorist attacks as of the writing of this article. These are attacks, not death tolls. Including multiple attacks by Islamic nations on Israel, the death tolls alone reach well into the hundred of thousands. These are not “simple” deaths either. Beheadings, burnings, hangings, lynchings, as well as other innumerably hideous acts, are a common practice used by Islamic terrorists.
The Islamists are not confining their actions to one particular region of the world either. In addition to the Middle East, terrorist attacks have taken place in the United States, England, Spain, France, Africa, Russia, The Netherlands and many other nations throughout the world.
The attacks and death toll, combined with the hatred instilled into Muslim children concerning Israel and the West, should instill tremendous caution in the hearts of those who value freedom and life. Unfortunately, this is not the case. Either because of Political Correctness (PC), fear, or outright pandering, the leaders of the Western world have turned a blind eye to the festering cancer within their respective national borders. England, who suffered through bombings from both World Wars as well as terrorists attacks from the IRA and recent ones from Islamic terrorists, has allowed the Muslim extremist cancer grow within it’s borders. The United States is turning a blind eye to paramilitary camps on it’s soil, and Amsterdam is placing Geert Wilders on trial for daring to speak out against the truth of what is really happening.
Yet it has been shown in the past that if an organization is somewhat Christian, or at least non-Muslim, and only a fraction of these offenses are committed, the Western nations will not hesitate to crack down on the “offenders.” Again I must ask, why the duplicity?
