Those Who Do Not Study History----Again

"Those who do not learn from history are condemned to repeat it" (Attributed to George Santayana). Those generals who do not learn that the usual is to fight today's battles with the tactics weapons of yesterday--And, that does not result in victories form one group of such failed students as are the doctors who fail to understand that the antibiotics of yesterday do not work on the bacteria of today.

However, the bigger examples are in geo-political matters. Except when forced tot he wall Westerners fail to understand that compromises with evil men, or half-measures rather than destroying them, is a blue print for failure. This was true as to Neville Chamberlain's compromises with Adolf Hitler and the UN's (Useless Nations') failure to fully destroy the power of Saddam Hussein in the first Iraq War.

The failure of the West to learn from the 1400-year history of Islamic aggression and deceit is the classic example of being forced to repeat history by a failure to learn from it. Any rational person studying the history of Islam will easily come to the full understanding that the goal of Islam is to make all humanity submit to it AND that the approved-Islamic techniques to do so include murder, revenge, rape, genocide, terrorism, robbery, lying, deceit and, more recently, assuming the false role of "victim-hood".

The core of the Islamic danger is in the "true believers" (Please see Eric Hoffer's The True Believer) of the Saudi family/government (They are the same), a government which produces and distributes most of the hate literature in the world and allows its citizens to support international terrorism under the guise of "Islamic Charity".

Of course, for ediors to be able to integrate the above in their policies and editorials requires them to study honest history. To publish editorials based on that study requires courage. THE SAME HOLDS TRUE FOR THE POLICIES OF OUR GOVERNMENT AND ITS LEADERS.

The Economics Of Stem-Cell Research

If, and only if, embryonic stem-cell research were truly a "hot" investment opportunity, our domestic drug cartels (Excuse me, pharmaceutical companies) would be falling over their corporate feet in efforts to buy new "lines" of such cells and to conduct private research, protected under our trade secret laws, in efforts to develop very profitable cures for the various diseases which some claim to be achieved through such efforts.

However, the scientific and economic facts are that there is NO proof that embryonic stem-cell research offers any such opportunities. Therefore, most and responsible businesses are leaving such wastes of money to governments (So well known for waste) and to those universities which worship at the altar of the false gods of academic (Unproven but politically correct) theories.

If, and only if, embryonic stem-cell research were relatively safe and essentially immune from law suits for causing cancers and other horrid side effects, such private companies would feel much freer to involve themselves in such studies.

However, the legal and liability risks are such that responsible to stockholders executives are avoiding the John Edwards' type of civil suits and prefer to "allow" the government or usually public universities (We tax payers) to take the liability risks of such efforts.
[Since many attorneys are willing to risk much to collect more in law suits, it might be of interest to some of them to see if those who fund universities are really immune for damages caused by applications of embryonic stem-cell misadventures through the actions of their agents, such schools.]

Once A Marine, Always A Marine

There is a well known saying: "Once a marine, always a marine!".

However, Congress-Critter John Murtha has raised, by his white flag waiving, some real doubts as to the validity of that maxim--As applicable to him. Perhaps, to be charitable, his age and contagion from the DNC have caused him to forget what really is a marine.

On the other hand, it is hard to determine just what kind of services he performed in the USMC as he refuses to unconditionally open his service records leaving us in the dark as much as Senator John Kerry and for the same reason.

So, before you place too much value on the words of the various "surrender monkeys" on the left, you should have the full facts about their military services--If any and if true

Another Downside To Abortion & "Gay" Marriage

It has been brought to my attention that there is yet another "downside" to unrestricted "gay" marriage and abortion.

If we allow men to marry men, women to marry women and anyone to kill unborn babies at their pleasure, after two or three generations there will be no more Democrats or other progressive-secularists.

What we will have left is very traditional Christians, Jews, Muslims and Mormons. Now, wouldn't that be too bad?

Whites As Racists ?

Someone finally said it.
How many are actually paying attention to this?

There are African Americans, Mexican Americans,
Asian Americans, Arab Americans, Native Americans, etc.
And then there are just Americans.

You pass me on the street and sneer in my direction.
You Call me "White boy," "Cracker," "Honkey,"
"Whitey," "Caveman" .. And that's OK.

But when I call you, Nigger, Kike, Towel head, Sand-nigger,
Camel Jockey, Beaner, Gook, or Chink ... You call me a racist.

You say that whites commit a lot of violence against you,
So why are the ghettos the most dangerous places to live?

You have the United Negro College Fund. You have Martin Luther King
Day. You have Black History Month. You have Cesar Chavez Day. You
Have Yom Hashoah You have Ma'uled Al-Nabi You have the NAACP.
You have BET.

If we had WET (White Entertainment Television) .. We'd be racists.

If we had a White Pride Day .. You would call us racists.

If we had White History Month . We'd be racists.

If we had any organization for only whites to "advance" OUR lives ..
We'd be racists.

We have a Hispanic Chamber of Commerce, a Black Chamber of
Commerce, and then we just have the plain Chamber of Commerce.
Wonder who pays for that?

If we had a college fund that only gave white students scholarships
... You know we'd be racists. There are over 60 openly proclaimed
Black Colleges in the US , yet if there were "White colleges" .
THAT would be a racist college.

In the Million Man March, you believed that you were marching
For your race and rights. If we marched for our race and rights,
You would call us racists.

You are proud to be black, brown, yellow and orange, and you're
Not afraid to announce it. But when we announce our white pride ..
You call us racists.

You rob us, carjack us, and shoot at us. But, when a white police officer
Shoots a black gang member or beats up a black drug-dealer running
From the law and posing a threat to society .. You call him a racist.

I am proud.
But, you call me a racist.

Why is it that only whites can be racists?

Military Commissions & Justice

The military commission established to try the assassins of President Abraham Lincoln had them executed. The secret military commission established by President F. D. Roosevelt did the same to the German saboteurs who came to the USA by U-Boat.

The tribunals established to try Nazi war criminals had no problems having them hung or shot.

Will the military commissions established to try such persons have the same courage and commitment to justice when it comes to trying such terrorists (Unprotected by the Geneva Conventions) as Khalid Sheikh Mohammed?

We should all hope so!

Apologies For US Black Slavery---NOT

There appears to be some mindless legislative lurching towards formal apologies for slavery in the USA. This plays into the dirty hands of such professional Blacks as Jessie (The extortionist) Jackson, Al (The Liar) Sharpton and Michael (The Threat) McGee, Jr., who would keep other Blacks in mental slavery by directing them backwards in time rather than to their critical present and doubtful future.

As an American of Polish decent and if I chose such a backwards mental slavery, I would be asking the governments and peoples of Germany, Austria and Russia apologies and reparations for their partitioning of Poland for too long a time. As a Christian I really should ask all Islamic nations, most specially Saudi Arabia, for apologies for the armed takeover of so much of once Catholic Europe, the Middle East and North Africa in the 300-years following Mohammed---And, for all of the atrocities enabled by the hate-filled teachings of the Koran since that time and to today.

If the Blacks of the USA seek for apologies, they should ask them of the above-noted professional Blacks (NOT Black professionals), "Gangstr Rap" producers and singers, gang-bangers found on every Inner-City street corner and "politically correct" professors---Who all contribute nothing positive to either Black culture, Black life or the place of Blacks in this democracy. They might ask apologies of those current government officials (I will NOT call them leaders) who refuse to seal our border with Mexico and thus add more drugs, crime, untreatable diseases and job-stealing to the too great burden of Black Americans.

In fact too many Blacks in the USA should apologize to the Non-Blacks here for their disproportional committing of crimes, use of limited social service, overcrowding of jails and prisons, waste of our limited school resources by anti-learning attitudes, demands for unearned places in colleges and like offenses against the common good of themselves and all others.

Yes, study history to help avoid repetition of prior errors; But, look to the present and future as the best way of improving our world and personal lives.

The Term "Phobia"

The term or suffix "phobia" is used too widely and much too incorrectly in such words as "homophobia" or "Islamophobia".

As far as "Islamophobia" is concerned, the following quote should and must be noted.
"A phobia is defined in Webster''s dictionary as an "inexplicable and illogical fear of a particular object, class of subjects, or situation". Fear of Islamic extremism and its potentially catastrophic consequences is not inexplicable or illogical. It is a rational reaction to dangerous, irrational people who would use weapons of mass destruction to bring about their apocalyptic vision." (From Joseph Klien's "Playing The Islamophobia Card"; FrontPageMagazine; March 5, 2007)

I suggest that we all now substitute (In our daily use and in newspapers' "style books") the term "Islamoforia where the "foria" derives from the Greek and denotes a state of being-on-guard---Which is the proper response to Islam and Muslims---Who appear to have a "religious duty" to destroy our culture and civilization.

Most persons have no "fear" of (Male) homosexuals. Their usual, natural and reasonable response is the same variety of disgust that is usual to "biting into an apple and finding half of a worm" or being served rotten meat in a restaurant or any like reaction. Therefore, I suggest the same sort of substitution, for "homophobia", of the term "homoaidia" where the "aidia" derives from the Greek for disgust or revulsion.

The Future Of A Democracy

How Long Do We Have?

About the time our original thirteen states adopted their new constitution in 1787, Alexander Tyler, a Scottish history professor at the University of Edinburgh , had this to say about the fall of the Athenian Republic some 2,000 years earlier: "A democracy is always temporary in nature; it simply cannot exist as a permanent form of government."

"A democracy will continue to exist up until the time that voters discover they can vote themselves generous gifts from the public treasury."

"From that moment on, the majority always vote for the candidates who promise the most benefits from the public treasury, with the result that every democracy will finally collapse due to loose fiscal policy, which is always followed by a dictatorship."

"The average age of the world's greatest civilizations from the beginning of history, has been about 200 years."

"During those 200 years, those nations always progressed through the following sequence:

1. from bondage to spiritual faith;
2. from spiritual faith to great courage;
3. from courage to liberty;
4. from liberty to abundance;
5. from abundance to complacency;
6. from complacency to apathy;
7. from apathy to dependence;
8. From dependence back into bondage"

Professor Joseph Olson of Hamline University School of Law, St. Paul , Minnesota , points out some interesting facts concerning the 2000 Presidential election:

Number of States won by: Gore: 19; Bush: 29
Square miles of land won by: Gore: 580,000; Bush: 2,427,000
Population of count ies won by: Gore: 127 million; Bush: 143 million
Murder rate per 100,000 residents in counties won by: Gore: 13.2; Bush: 2.1
Professor Olson adds: "In aggregate, the map of the territory Bush won was mostly the land owned by the taxpaying citizens of this great country. Gore's territory mostly encompassed those citizens living in government-owned tenements and living off various forms of government welfare..."

Olson believes the United States is now somewhere between the "complacency and apathy" phase of Professor Tyler's definition of democracy, with some forty percen t of the nation's population already having reached the "governmental dependency" phase.

If Congress grants amnesty and citizenship to twenty million criminal invaders called illegal's and they vote, then we can say goodbye to the USA in fewer than five years.

Black Reparations ?

BLACK REPARATIONS: FROM WHOM? TO WHOM?
By the United American Committee | March 5th 2007

Researchers have reportedly found evidence that the ancestors of Al Sharpton may have been owned by the ancestors of Democrat-turned Dixiecrat-turned Republican Strom Thurmond. This is an interesting, albeit ironic, possibility.

We are now hearing demands from descendants of West African Americanized slaves claiming reparations. Who should be responsible for paying those reparations? And who should receive them? First, what about an American Black U.S. citizen who is not a descendant from American slaves, such as Barak Obama, or others who immigrated to the U.S. from other countries? Clearly, they have no stake in this matter. Now, for those who truly are descendants of West Africans who became slaves in America, just where should their demands for reparations be directed?

Let it be said that no living black Americans have been slaves in America. It is also safe to say that no living white Americans owned slaves. In fact there are probably far more living Americans whose ancestors fought and died to end slavery because they found it ugly and absolutely abhorrent. Approximately 700,000 Americans died in the Civil War to bring an end to slavery.

So who is responsible for slavery? Some ill-informed people tend to blame it all on American southern plantation owners and ignore the role of British, Spanish, and Portuguese merchants who bought slaves and transported them to the Americas for resale. Some want to blame it on those middle-men slave merchants and slave ship owners and ignore the role of those who first seized free Africans, dragging them from their homes to be sold to the middle-men.

And just who were those at the bottom of this ugly supply chain? Who seized free men and women and forced them into slavery in the first place? History tells us in almost all cases they were Arab Muslim slavers whose religion, Islam, decreed that the taking of slaves of those they conquered is approved by Allah; A lawful reward for striving to carry out Allah's edict to his believers to force all people and all nations into Islam (submission); a doctrine which still prompts conquest, subjugation, terrorism and slave-taking today.

Some political leaders of former slave states have taken steps to apologize and to try to make some amends for this horrid but now long-abolished-in-America practice. True, without plantation owners there may have been no slave ships sailing to our shores, but as we take a closer look at the history of slavery, we see this interesting truth: it was mostly Arab Muslims who had been actively engaged in the practice of seizing and selling human beings into slavery for centuries. So, the real....the original slavers (and still in the business today) are Muslim slavers who seized and enslaved not only black Africans but also white Europeans, brown Indonesians, and olive-skinned people of India, Persia and the Mid-east.

Al Sharpton's ancestors were in all probability captured and first made slaves by Arab or Black MUSLIMS. Yes, they were eventually bought by plantation owners who needed strong healthy males and females capable of sustained hard work under onerous conditions. Those slaves at least found conditions and the courage within themselves to survive, and even raise children, their descendants now living as free people, some in America.

The same was not so for many millions of slaves of various nationalities who were captured. Often Arab Muslim slavers didn't want to deal with whole men. Eunuchs were more valuable. Many unfortunate victims were often mutilated in a most barbaric and savage manner in castration stations established along the slaver's routes. This practice continues in sub-Sahara Africa to this day. These acts were not clean and surgical. They were performed with dirty knives, and more of the victims died than lived, and still die horribly today, in Mauritania, in the Sudan (Darfur today, and who knows where next) and everywhere in between.

In lieu of reparations, our political, religious, educational, and business leaders need to not only demand, but take real steps to end the vicious ugliness of slavery and human subjugation today and for all times wherever this ugliness takes place.

And our black descendants of American slaves might more appropriately direct their demands for reparations to states of the Muslim world which first seized and enslaved their fore bearers. They might also consider that, had that not happened, they might today be living in an impoverished African nation, and themselves at risk of being enslaved tomorrow.

Reformation OR Revolution ?

At the time of Martin Luther the Catholic Church had become very, very, corrupt. Notwithstanding the many fine people in that very international organization who led moral lives, some of whom recognized the corruption problem and made efforts to correct it, there were too many who preferred to be "cozy" with the "powers that be", the sources of wealth-and-power or misused the law of that time to oppress others and to increase corruption.

A great part of the contributions of the Faithful were diverted into the pockets of those evil persons.

This, as our history books, tell us, lead to the "Reformation" and "Counter-Reformation", along with bloody wars and the destruction of the Faith of the People in what had been the core values and organization of their ancestors and own lives.

The People of the USA are well towards losing Faith in their governments and in those in power in or about them. They see open corruption in state capitols, city halls and Washington, DC. They know there is much more corruption just or well out of sight. Open "contributions" will buy approval for gambling casinos, open border practices-and-policies (To the harm of the poorest in this nation), highway building and military contracts, immunity from the need to bid on government contracts for the purchase of pharmaceuticals and too many other example to list here.

Much of our tax moneys are diverted into the pockets of evil persons.

The Faith of the People in democracy as a core value in their lives and world is fading.

The choices for those in power are clear: They can either reform themselves and our governments or have reformation imposed and inflicted upon them---Perhaps by "fire and sword". Perhaps that is why so many "liberals" oppose the rights of the People to keep and bear arms. On the other hand "conservatives" appear to be of the opinion that the People are "harmless": So did those ultimate conservatives King George III and Lord North. (We know better!)
