Terrorists Swimming In A Muslim Sea

"Chairman" Mao was a most horrid man, a mass murderer who facilitated the deaths of many more than even Joseph Stalin, Pol Pot and Genghis Khan. Yet, he was certainly NOT ignorant or irrational (Although he had VERY different premises for his logic).

One of his most famous "thoughts" was that: Revolutionaries swim in the sea of peasants. (Or, urban workers) who either hopefully support such persons or dare not to oppose them or even not actively supporting them. The French and USA ignored this in Viet Nam and lost their wars there.

Now we are being subject to a newly-aggressive, more-violent and heavily-armed Jihadi terrorist movements and individuals who "swim" in the Muslim ruled nations AND also everywhere where even local communities have a Muslim majority or even large minority.
The latter include parts of the UK and France where even para-military police fear to go. If not "seas" or "lakes", there are such swimming holes in many of the Nordic Nations' cities. Such may shortly become true in the Somali neighborhoods of the Twin Cities and the Muslim-Arab dominated city of Dearborn, MI (Where the local police arrested Christians attending an "Arab Festival" who were attempting to demonstrate their First Amendment rights to "the free exercise of religion").

Islam has been at war with us ("Unbelievers") for 1400-plus years; Even if we deny that fact. The response of too many is a syrup-like, and false, "Islam is a religion of peace" OR such absolute denials of reality as "The various terrorist acts of Muslims are not connected with each other".

Islamic terrorists would not survive for 30-days if their peasants (Or Urban equivalents) would turn them in to any like-minded government authorities. Yes, some Muslims fail to do so because of a real fear of physical punishment OR social isolation. However, I suspect that most Muslims support jihadi as Mohammed, the founder of Islam, insisted that the above-noted war AND the duty of every adult-male Muslim to participate in military Jihad or to support it with "all their wealth" were direct commands from Allah.

Other like, binding and unalterable commands were-and-are towards the destruction of all legal systems other than Sharia, of all governments other than those controlled by Muslims AND all ideologies and true religions other than Islam.

To paraphrase: "Those who fail to study and learn from history will be condemned to repeat it"; And, "There may be peaceful and tolerant Muslims; But, Islam is very war-like and very intolerant

Thanksgiving Proclamations

Our great, national, holiday of Thanksgiving is again upon us! I think it would be in the best interests of your readers to print one or both of the presidential thanksgiving proclamations reproduced below between now and that celebration so dear to so many families in this land---And, remind all of the historical and real meaning of that day.

GEORGE WASHINGTON’S THANKSGIVING PROCLAMATION – 1789:

“Whereas it is the duty of all nations to acknowledge the providence of Almighty God, to obey His will, to be grateful for His benefits, and humbly implore His protection and favor; and whereas both Houses of Congress have, by their joint committee, requested me to recommend to the people of the United States a day of Public Thanksgiving and Prayer, to be observed by acknowledging with grateful hearts the many signal favors of Almighty God, especially by affording them an opportunity peaceably to establish a form of government for their safety and happiness.

“Now therefore I do recommend and assign Thursday the twenty-six of November next, to be devoted by the people of these States to the service of that Great and Glorious Being, who is the Beneficent Author of all the good that was, that is, or that will be; that we may then all unite in rendering unto Him our sincere and humble thanks for His kind care and protection of the people of this country, previous to their becoming a nation; for the single manifold mercies, and the favorable interpositions of His providence, in the courage and conclusion of the late war; for the great degree of tranquility, union and plenty which we have since enjoyed; for the peaceable and rational manner in which we have been enabled to establish Constitutions of Government for our safety and happiness, and particularly the national one now instituted; for the civil and religious liberty with which we are blessed, and the means we have of acquiring and diffusing useful knowledge; and in general, for all the great and various favors which He has been pleased to confer upon us.

“And also, that we may then unite in most humbly offering our prayers and supplications to the Great Lord and Ruler of Nations, and beseech Him to pardon our national and other transgressions; to enable us all, whether
in public or private institutions, to perform our several and relative duties properly and punctually; to render our National Government a blessing to all the people, by constantly being a government of wise,
just, and constitutional laws, discretely and faithfully executed and obeyed; to protect and guide all sovereigns and nations (especially such as have shown kindness to us) and to bless them with good governments,
peace and concord; to promote the knowledge and practice of true religion and virtue, and the increase of science, among them and us; and generally, to grant unto all mankind such a degree of temporal prosperity an He alone knows to be best.”

Proclamation of Thanksgiving
by the President of the United States of America

The year that is drawing toward its close has been filled with the blessings of fruitful years and healthful skies. To these bounties, which are so constantly enjoyed that we are prone to forget the Source from which they come, others have been added which are of so extraordinary a nature that they can not fail to penetrate and soften even the heart which is habitually insensible to the ever-watchful providence of Almighty God.

In the midst of a civil war of unequaled magnitude and severity, which has sometimes seemed to foreign states to invite and to provoke their aggression, peace has been preserved with all nations, order has been maintained, the laws have been respected and obeyed, and harmony has prevailed everywhere, except in the theater of military conflict, while that theater has been greatly contracted by the advancing armies and navies of the Union.

Needful diversions of wealth and of strength from the field of peaceful industry to the national defense have not arrested the plow, the shuttle, or the ship; the ax has enlarged the borders of our settlements, and the mines, as well of iron and coal as of the precious metals, have yielded even more abundantly than theretofore. Population has steadily increased notwithstanding the waste that has been made in the camp, the siege, and the battlefield, and the country, rejoicing in the consciousness of augmented strength and vigor, is permitted to expect continuance of years with large increase of freedom.

No human counsel hath devised nor hath any mortal hand worked out these great things. They are the gracious gifts of the Most High God, who, while dealing with us in anger for our sins, hath nevertheless remembered mercy.

It has seemed to me fit and proper that they should be solemnly, reverently, and gratefully acknowledged, as with one heart and one voice, by the whole American people. I do therefore invite my fellow-citizens in every part of the United States, and also those who are at sea and those who are sojourning in foreign lands, to set apart and observe the last Thursday of November next as a day of thanksgiving and praise to our beneficent Father who dwelleth in the heavens. And I recommend to them that while offering up the ascriptions justly due to Him for such singular deliverances and blessings they do also, with humble penitence for our national perverseness and disobedience, commend to His tender care all those who have become widows, orphans, mourners, or sufferers in the lamentable civil strife in which we are unavoidably engaged, and fervently implore the interposition of the Almighty Hand to heal the wounds of the nation and to restore it, as soon as may be consistent with the Divine purposes, to the full enjoyment of peace, harmony, tranquility, and union.

In testimony wherof I have herunto set my hand and caused the seal of the United States to be affixed.

[Signed]
A. Lincoln

Another All Saints' Day & Protecting Jesus' Flock

I. The March Of Glory


At my parish's 2005 All Saints' Day mass my pastor gave a homily in which the great saints of old were mentioned and the great numbers of such Holy Ones marching forward through time was presented to the people.

In my mind's eye, I found myself seeing many columns of God's saints marching behind their special patrons: All the brown-robed Franciscans and those of that persuasion behind St. Francis of Assisi and St. Claire of that same town; Dominicans and many saintly scholars behind St. Dominic, St. Thomas of Aquino and St. Albert the Great; Those attorneys who, somehow, have become saints behind St. Thomas More; All good pastors (Including our beloved John Paul II) Poland's St. John Kanty; And, so forth---Each behind her or his leader in the march to glory.

As for myself, I hope to someday (If that term has any meaning in eternity) take my very, very, humble place behind St. Bernard of Clairvaux (Doctor of the Church and author of De Laude Novae Militae). My view of his column of saints puts the Knights of The Temple (Knights Templar), with their swords used and bloody wounds suffered in the defense of the Holy Land against the followers of that false prophet Mohammed, first behind him. Following them are such as: The Spanish Crusaders who drove those Muslims out of Iberia; King Jan of Poland and all the Poles who suffered, died and yet were victorious at the gates of Vienna and many other places against the Muslim-Turkish hordes; Don Juan of Austria and all of the brave seamen who sent the Turkish fleet to the deeps in defense of Christianity and true Civilization; And, the true Crusaders of today who battle the false, Muslim, prophet Osama bin Laden and his ilk throughout the world.

We should not forget the other false prophets such as the: “Two Emperor Gang” of World War I; The Nazis and Imperial Japan & foolish Italy of World War II; And the atheist communist and very false leaders, Lenin, Stalin Pol Pot, Mao and all of that evil lot. In defense of my nation, Christianity and Civilization [I did serve for three years in the US Navy, this being my only claim to be a follower of St. Bernard and his holy warriors]---Among which are those who suffered and died at such places as Flanders' fields, the Bataan Death March, Normandy's beaches and hedgerows, upon and under the the too-hot and too-cold mountains of Korea, the streets of Baghdad, the jungles of Viet Nam and all the other places where evil is confronted, by true knights, throughout history and the world.

TO THOSE WHO MAINTIAIN THAT THERE ARE NOT JUST WARS AND THAT THE BATTLES FOUGHT, EVEN TODAY. AGAINST THE FOLLOWS OF SUCH FALSE PROPHETS AS MOHAMMED AND OSAMA BIN LADEN ARE NOT JUST WARS WILL BE UNLIKELY TO BE AMONG THE FOLLOWER OF ST. BERNARD ON THE ROAD TO GLORY---OR OF ANY OTHER IN THAT GRAND PROCESSION OF THOSE WHO DEFEND TRUTH AGAINST LIES AND GOOD AGAINST EVIL

II. Protecting Jesus' Flock

We Christians are all parts of Jesus' flock. We are not all lambs or ewes. Fortunately there are still stalwart rams who are ready to defend that flock---Especially when the wethers(ie Castrated sheep) of the Church are more interested in "reaching out to and having dialogue with" the Wolves of Islam than in protecting their flocks. Unfortunately, those cowardly sheep AND bad shepherds include too many (Most?) of the bishops and far too many in the Holy See. This category also extends to all pathological-pacifists and the leaders of some other Christian Churches.

Islam & Like Religious Veneer Terrorist Groups

Some time ago I became convinced (On the basis of its teachings and collective behaviors) that Islam is NOT a religion but a criminal-terrorist movement with a very thin veneer of religion. It is the largest of such ideologies; But, is no more a true religion than those other like anti-civilization movements as the KKK, Mafia/Cosa-Nostra, Chinese Triads, (Drug dealers') Santeria and Santa Muerte and probably like and lesser known groups.

The first step to save civilization from the Islamic cancer is to declare (By legislative action, judicial decision and through the media) that Islam is NOT a religion and is evil in many of its teachings and the record if its evil deeds as continue to this day in such places as The Sudan, the Philippines, Thailand, and the USA.

It should be specially noted, where ever there is the tradition of British laws, that the cited opinion is based on those legal traditions as much as on the US Constitution.

Who Is My Neighbor?

"Who is my neighbor?" is the essential question for all Christians and many others. The Christ responded by using a Samaritan, of a people detested by the Jews, as an example of a peaceful and charitable (ie Of Love) person.
Certainly, He did not use the bandits who attacked the victim in this parable as examples of such. (Had I been there I might have said: "Master, what should the Samaritan have done if he arrived while the attack-and-robbery was in process?")

Are the unborn our neighbors as to offering them protection? Certainly as they are the absolute innocents having no blame of their own; The same according to the Church as children up to about seven-years of age. What puzzles me is that the Church will not declare that Natural Law allows, if not requires, the use of any level of force to prevent abortions or child abuse.

The same question applies to protecting the "life and dignity of all" as, for example, in The Sudan where loyal followers of the false prophet Mohammed continue to rob, rape and kill in following the teachings of the Koran, this being a all too common facet of Islamic aggression over the last 1400-years and in much of the World.

Are those aggressive-and-criminal Muslims our "neighbors" or are they very much more as the bandits in the parable? Do we have a natural law right (And duty?) to defend ourselves and innocent others from attacks by such AND not limiting ourselves to aiding the hurt-and-injured and burying the dead victims.? Do we have a duty to "strike blows for Christ" as supported by that "Doctor Of The Church" St. Bernard of Clairvaux?. Must we hold our defenses until the sword is swinging at our necks, our girl-children seized, guns are fired at us and the fire-bombs thrown at our church-buildings OR may we take preemptive actions against those who are fiercely advocating and preparing to make such attacks?

I specially am interested in the last question as Mohammed declared war against all "unbelievers" over 1400-years ago, a state-of-war which continues and no true-believing Mujslim will publicly deny and reject!
