Islam's Nature & Growth Patterns: Key Document

You may disregard this note as another example of my "hobby horse" as to Islam; But, you are unlikely to find a better declaration of the nature of Islam as demonstrated by its growth dynamics.

Adapted from Dr. Peter Hammond's book: Slavery, Terrorism, and Islam: The Historical Roots and Contemporary Threat

Islam is not a religion, nor is it a cult; in its fullest form, it is a complete, total, 100% system of life. Islam has religious, legal, political, economic, social, and military components. The religious component is a beard for all of the other components.

Islamization begins when there are sufficient Muslims in a country to agitate for their religious rights. When politically correct, tolerant, and culturally diverse societies agree to Muslim demands for their religious rights, some of the other components tend to creep in as well. Here's how it works.

As long as the Muslim population remains around or under 2% in any given country, they will be for the most part regarded as a peace-loving minority, and not as a threat to other citizens. This is the case in:

United States-- Muslim 0.6%
Australia-- Muslim 1.5%
Canada-- Muslim 1.9%
China-- Muslim 1.8%
Italy-- Muslim 1.5%
Norway-- Muslim 1.8%

At 2% to 5%, they begin to proselytize other ethnic minorities and disaffected groups, often with major recruiting from the jails and among street gangs. This is happening in:

Denmark -- Muslim 2%
Germany-- Muslim 3.7%
United Kingdom-- Muslim 2.7%
Spain-- Muslim 4%
Thailand-- Muslim 4.6%

From 5% on, they exercise an inordinate influence in proportion to their percentage of the population. For example, they will push for the introduction of halal (clean by Islamic standards) food, thereby securing food preparation jobs for Muslims. They will increase pressure on supermarket chains to feature halal on their shelves -- along with threats for failure to comply. This is occurring in:

France-- Muslim 8%
Philippines-- Muslim 5%
Sweden-- Muslim 5%
Switzerland-- Muslim 4.3%
The Netherlands -- Muslim 5.5%
Trinidad &Tobago -- Muslim 5.8%

At this point, they will work to get the ruling government to allow them to rule themselves (within their ghettos) under Sharia, the Islamic Law. The ultimate goal of Islamists is to establish Sharia law over the entire world.

When Muslims approach 10% of the population, they tend to increase lawlessness as a means of complaint about their conditions. In Paris, we are already seeing car-burnings. Any non-Muslim action offends Islam, and results in uprisings and threats, such as in Amsterdam, with opposition to Mohammed cartoons and films about Islam. Such tensions are seen daily, particularly in Muslim sections, in:

Guyana-- Muslim 10%
India-- Muslim 13.4%
Israel-- Muslim 16%
Kenya-- Muslim 10%
Russia-- Muslim 15%

After reaching 20%, nations can expect hair-trigger rioting, jihad-militia formations, sporadic killings, and the burnings of Christian churches and Jewish synagogues such as in:

Ethiopia-- Muslim 32.8%

At 40%, nations experience widespread massacres, chronic terror attacks, and ongoing militia warfare, such as in:

Bosnia-- Muslim 40%
Chad-- Muslim 53.1%
Lebanon-- Muslim 59.7%

From 60%, nations experience unfettered persecution of non-believers of all other religions (including non-conforming Muslims), sporadic ethnic cleansing (genocide), use of Sharia Law as a weapon, and Jizya (the tax placed on infidels) such as in: Albania-- Muslim 70%

Malaysia-- Muslim 60.4%
Qatar-- Muslim 77.5%
Sudan-- Muslim 70%

After 80%, expect daily intimidation and violent jihad, some State-run ethnic cleansing, and even some genocide as these nations drive out the infidels, and move toward 100% Muslim, such as has been experienced and in some ways is on-going in:

Bangladesh-- Muslim 83%
Egypt-- Muslim 90%
Gaza-- Muslim 98.7%
Indonesia-- Muslim 86.1%
Iran-- Muslim 98%
Iraq-- Muslim 97%
Jordan-- Muslim 92%
Morocco-- Muslim 98.7%
Pakistan-- Muslim 97%
Palestine-- Muslim 99%
Syria-- Muslim 90%
Tajikistan-- Muslim 90%
Turkey-- Muslim 99.8%
United Arab Emirates-- Muslim 96%

100% will usher in the peace of 'Dar-es-Salaam' --the Islamic House of Peace. Here there's supposed to be peace, because everybody is a Muslim, the Madrasses are the only schools, and the Koran is the only word, such as in:

Afghanistan-- Muslim 100%
Saudi Arabia-- Muslim 100%
Somalia-- Muslim 100%
Yemen-- Muslim 100%

Unfortunately, peace is never achieved, as in these 100% states. The most radical Muslims intimidate and spew hatred, and satisfy their blood lust by killing less-radical Muslims, for a variety of reasons. Before I was nine, I had learned the basic canon of Arab life. It was me against my brother; me and my brother against our father; my family against my cousins and the clan; the clan against the tribe the tribe against the world, and all of us against the infidel.

Leon Uris, The Haj

It is important to understand that in some countries, with well under 100%-Muslim populations, such as France, the minority Muslim populations live in ghettos, within which they are 100% Muslim, and within which they live by Sharia Law. The national police do not even enter these ghettos. There are no national courts nor schools nor non-Muslim religious facilities. In such situations, Muslims do not integrate into the community at large. The children attend madrasses. They learn only the Koran. Even to associate with an infidel is a crime punishable with death. Therefore, in some areas of certain nations, Muslim Imams and extremists exercise more power than the national average would indicate.

Today's 1.5-billion Muslims make up 22% of the world's population; but their birth rates dwarf the birth rates of Christians, Hindus, Buddhists, and Jews, and all other believers. Muslims will exceed 50% of the world's population by the end of this century.

Explaining The Democrat Leadership

WITH A HAT-TIP TO "WILEY COYOTE"! (But, I did not check the dates-of-birth.)

EXPLAINING THE DEMOCRAT LEADERSHIP

Some of you will recall that on July 8, 1947, a little over 60 years ago, witnesses claim that an unidentified flying object (UFO) with five aliens aboard, crashed onto a sheep and cattle ranch just outside Roswell , New Mexico

This is a well known incident that many say has long been covered up by the U.S. Air Force and other federal agencies and organizations.

However, what you may NOT know is that in the month of April 1948, nine months after that historic day, the following people were born:

Albert A. Gore, Jr.
Hillary Rodham
John F. Kerry
William J. Clinton
Howard Dean
Nancy Pelosi
Dianne Feinstein
Charles E. Schumer
Barbara Boxer

See what happens when aliens breed with sheep?

I certainly hope this bit of information clears up a lot of things for you. It did for me.


No wonder they support the bill to help illegal aliens

"Ape Cartoons" & Presidents

Some of the supporters of Mr. Obama and "professional Blacks" (NOT Black professionals) have "taken exception" to the New York Post cartoon which some have claimed that Mr. Obama was compared to an ape. As Mr. Obama has taken an unseemly pride in implying that Abraham Lincoln is his role-model, those professional victims should first look at the ape-like characterizations of Lincoln printed during his lifetime and then take pride in the parallel treatment.

Of course, there are no such real parallels as Mr. Obama is most unlike Mr. Lincoln as to defending the Union against its enemies, approval of courts-martial to try deserters and terrorists, approving the execution of such dangerous persons, support of big business, a personal history of physical hard work, logical and fact-based debates with his opponents; and the actual practice of the Law in the demanding real court venues, etc..

Natural Law, Weapons, Self-Defense, ETC.

I am a life-long Latin-Rite Catholic; But, was educated by the state's schools and in the "school of hard knocks". Therefore, I am unqualified to seek out reliable answers to my own questions about the Faith---Especially as outlined below.

Unfortunately, my questions about "Natural Law & The Use Of Deadly Force" to various priests and other learned persons have met with ivory-tower, weasel-worded responses. For the most part no responses were made as a matter of courtesy or exercise of the "teaching responsibility" of such persons.

ASSUMPTIONS
1. That the local or state/provincial or national or international policing authorities are too few and too late to prevent criminal attacks on me or my family or neighbors or other innocents.
2. That those agents-of-governments are often unwilling to protect people from those who are politically powerful or who have otherwise corrupted or infiltrated their organizations.
3. That responses will be on a basis of Natural Law rather than civil law or even those teachings of the Church which are not fully binding on the People of God.

QUESTIONS
(Beginning With The Easiest & Progressing To Harder Ones)

1. If I feel fear of death or great bodily injury, without any later evaluation of "reasonableness t be considered", may I immediately use deadly force to protect myself?
2. Does the same apply to those situations when I likewise fear for the lives and physical safety of who I believe, at the moment, to be innocents?
3. Do I (And others) have a Natural Law right to ready access to the effective means
(ie Modern firearms and ammunition) to enforce the right of self-defense and defense of innocent others? [Please review "Assumptions" above before replying!]
4. Is rape of either gender (Most specially of children) or impressing children into military or para-military forces a threat which allows the use of deadly force to prevent (Again, without any "ex post facto" evaluation beyond the establishment of a claim of fear)?
5. As the "authorities" are unwilling to protect our most innocent , unborn children, from abortionists, is it then permitted to use deadly force to keep any person from preforming abortions as mere threats would only delay such murders?
6. Is it permitted, under Natural Law, to use deadly force to keep the civil or military authorities (eg Police, military, judges, elected and appointed officials) from taking away, or even limiting access of adult, sane and otherwise law-abiding citizens to the ready means (Modern firearms and ammunition) to enforce the above-noted Natural Law rights in the face of the usual failures of such authorities to provide the needed and preventative protections?
7. Is it permitted to use deadly force to protect a community and civilization from deadly attacks by ideological fanatics (eg Nazis, militant Atheists, Muslims strictly following the teachings of Mohammed of Mecca, Church hating secularists, those homosexuals who use physical attacks against those who oppose them and against their buildings and institutions) when the civil authorities can or will not protect?

I suspect that more questions of the same general theme could be poised; But,the above should clarify the issues for me---If responses are clear, lucid and logical, based on good teachings.

Anyone willing to provide some "real world" applications, as to the problems and questions noted above, is begged to write me at jamespawlak1 at crusaderknight dot blogspot dot com----So that reasoned discourse may be possible. NO COMMENTS FROM THAT COWARD "ANONYMOUS" WILL BE RETAINED!

Obituary For "Common Sense"

OBIT FOR COMMON SENSE---CREDITED TO "THE TIMES" OF LONDON, UK

"Today we mourn the passing of a beloved old Friend, Common Sense, who has been with us for many years. No one knows for sure how old he was, since his birth records were long ago lost in bureaucratic red tape. He will be remembered as having cultivated such valuable lessons as:

Knowing when to come in out of the rain;
why the early bird gets the worm;
life isn't always fair;
There is no such thing as a "free lunch";
and maybe it was my fault.

Common Sense lived by simple, sound financial policies (don't spend more than you can earn) and reliable strategies (adults, not children, are in charge).

His health began to deteriorate rapidly when political correctness became the, "in thing", and the well-intentioned but overbearing, "Human Rights laws" were set in place.

Reports of a 6-year-old boy charged with sexual harassment for kissing a classmate; teens suspended from school for using mouthwash after lunch; and a teacher fired for reprimanding an unruly student, only worsened his condition.

Common Sense lost ground when parents attacked teachers for doing the job that they themselves had failed to do in disciplining their unruly children.

It declined even further when schools were required to get parental consent to administer sun lotion or an aspirin to a student; but could not inform parents when a student became pregnant and wanted to have an abortion.

Common Sense lost the will to live as the churches became businesses; and criminals received better treatment than their victims. Common Sense took a beating when you couldn't defend yourself from a burglar in your own home and the burglar could sue you for assault.

Common Sense finally gave up the will to live, after a woman failed to realize that a steaming cup of coffee was hot. She spilled a little in her lap, and was promptly awarded a huge settlement.

Common Sense was preceded in death, by his parents, Truth and Trust his wife, Discretion his daughter, Responsibility his son, Reason.

He is survived by his 4 stepbrothers:
I Know My Rights;
I Want It Now;
Someone Else Is To Blame;
I'm A Victim

Not many attended his funeral because so few realized he was gone. If you still remember him, pass this on. If not, join the majority and do nothing."

"Indian" School Nicknames/Mascots

One of the reasons that so many citizens think so little of government is the official use of "sticks" (Fines, forfeitures, withholding-of-funds) to enforce laws. At least in the case of Native American "nick names" or "mascots" used by some high schools it might be better to use a "carrot".

I suggest that the Wisconsin Legislature offer a $25,000 prize to the first high school which changes its "nick name" to "The William T. Sherman Troopers", with the band uniforms being the yellow-leg blues of our Calvary troops of the 1870s and the motto "I saw some good Indians ...".!

Of course, it might be well to use some "sticks" as a $25,000 fine-or-forfeiture to be imposed on any persons("Professional victims" looking for their "15-minutes of fame") who falsely claims to represent a Native American tribe or band (Without being an elected official of such an organization) in any case as to high schools' use of "nick names".

Here I specially note that the Seminole Native Americans of Florida, very specially and very officially, approved the "nick name" use of their name by a State university---And, took pride in that application.

If, on the other hand, there are Native American tribes-or-bands who officially object to the use (As examples of bravery and courage) of their collective names, high schools might well consider other examples (eg Rangers, SEALs, Troopers, Grunts) to honor the real heroes of the USA.

Obama Insult To The British---And Americans

It has been reported that Mr. Obama has removed the bust of Winston Churchill (Who wrote hard, but honest, things about Islam) from the Oval Office and returned it the UK. That is a gross insult to the British----And those Americans who still understand that the "Britain That Was" is the well source of our laws, customs and civilization.

However, the UK's Labour Party's various policies (Including its "submission" to the forces of Islam; Attempting to remove Mr. Churchill from school history books) provide enough insults to the British People to cover-up Mr. Obama's like surrender to Islamic "sensibilities", leaving the followers of Mohammed of Mecca free to focus on beheading or otherwise murdering their women-and-girls and killing "unbelievers".

Ah---The "Religion Of Peace"! Ah---political prostitution!

Open Letter To AG Holder RE: Black History

AN OPEN LETTER

2321 South 82 Street
West Allis, WI   53219
(414) 545-1884


18 February 2009


Mr. Eric Holder
Attorney General Of The United States
950 Pennsylvania Avenue, NW
Washington, DC 20630-0001


Dear Mr. Holder:

You have declared, with special reference to "Black History Month", that US citizens should be more honest about race relations and Black History. Since you want honesty, here is a heaping plate-full of honesty and truth for you or anyone with the courage to read this note and consider the below sampling.

1. It was Black "chiefs" who sold other Blacks into the slavery of Whites traders and, through them, to White, Native American and (Oh yes) Black slave-holders, where those slaves'  descendants prosper among us to a level generally unknown to the descendants of those left behind in Africa.
2. Muslims raided Black Africa and caught their own slaves, who have disappeared from the world's genetic pool, especially in Muslim ruled lands.
3. Muslims are still inflicting slavery (Along with murder, rape and genocide) upon Black Africa.
4. It was through the efforts, blood, limbs and lives of mostly White soldiers that legal freedom came to Blacks in the USA---Which was an unearned gift of "something for nothing" which may explain much of what is not good in Black communities in this nation.
5. In the 144 years since the end of the "War Between The States" many Blacks have earned positions of great learning, wealth and influence through the extra-ordinary efforts required of all humans to reach those goals (Which are very, very, different from "Affirmative Action Goals"!). [Among those now prominent in the news are the Black (Well, Brown) Mr. Obama and the Black (Well, very light Brown) you.]
6. For those unwilling to make those honest efforts, their enslavement is to themselves and to such bad-thinking as: School and studies are "White"; Do not snitch on the Black criminals preying on other Blacks; Abusing women is manly; People have a "right" to success, wealth and respect; Surrendering entry level jobs, seats in universities and the other roads to success to illegal immigrants is OK as it hurts "Whitey"; A man's job ends with impregnating women and does not include child care, education, etc..
7. The income differences between Blacks and Whites/Asians in the USA might be well compared to the differences in their: Efforts towards education; Use of illegal drugs; Blaming others rather than self-examination-and-correction (A common factor in "criminal thinking"); And, differences (For those finishing high school) in career choices, with Engineers, Lawyers (eg Mr. Obama and you), Physicians doing very well VS. "Black Studies" majors electing and suffering from an too often
illusionary area-of-studies).
8. A major factor in the self-delusion of some Blacks in the manner in which  Black History (Especially as to that of Africa) is relied upon to  make some Blacks "feel good about themselves"---Even at a cost to Truth and ignorance of what many, many, Blacks in the USA have accomplished so much beyond those in Africa.

If you (Or your staff) elect to call me a "racist", that is only further proof of such self-delusion as is noted above and of the ignorance upon which such an opinion is based.

Democratically yours,
James Pawlak

Elections To Fill US Senate Vacancies

I was interested in US Senator Feingold's proposal that the US Constitution be amended to require elections to fill vacancies in the US Senate as opposed to allowing Governors of those states so authorized by their State's Legislatures to appoint such; And, am of two minds as to that proposal.

There is no doubt that such elections might go far to forestall the corruption recent revealed in Illinois as the filling of Mr.Obama's Senate seat. However, direct elections are no guarantee of freedom-from-corruption as evidenced by the ballot-stuffing like practice apparently utilized in Minnesota and now subject to judicial review AND those so historically common in that hotbed of corruption (And political base of Mr. Obama) and, for example, in Texas when Lyndon Johnson was elected.

As much as my first inclination was to support Sen. Feingold's proposal, I have ended up opposing it to support what is left of our Federal system allowing each Stat a certain measure of independence to experiment with government within the very general outlines of the US Constitution and, thereby, to support a more direct use of democracy. This variation allows the Several States to look about at other jurisdictions and evaluate the pros-and-cons of such measures and other variant acts.

Therefore, I would support the Wisconsin Legislature's passage (Which passage might NOT require the approval of our Governor) of a law or State Constitutional amendment mandating the use of direct elections, in Wisconsin, to fill such vacancies.

NOTES FROM US CONSTITUTION

US Constitution; Article-I; Section-4
The Times, Places and Manner of holding Elections for Senators and
Representatives, shall be prescribed in each State by the Legislature thereof;
but the Congress may at any time by Law make or alter such Regulations, except
as to the Place of Choosing Senators.

US Constitution; Amendment-17
The Senate of the United States shall be composed of two Senators from each
State, elected by the people thereof, for six years; and each Senator shall
have one vote. The electors in each State shall
have the qualifications
requisite for electors of the most numerous branch of the State legislatures.

When vacancies happen in the representation of any State in the Senate, the
executive authority of such State shall issue writs of election to fill such
vacancies: Provided, That the legislature of any State may empower the
executive thereof to make temporary appointments until the people fill the
vacancies by election as the legislature may direct.

This amendment shall not be so construed as to affect the election or term of
any Senator chosen before it becomes valid as part of the Constitution.

Real Lessons From Lincoln

On February 8th The "Milwaukee Journal Sentinel" reprinted (Page-J1) "Lessons from Lincoln to a modern president" as written by Mr. David M. Shribman, Executive Editor of the "Pittsburgh Post-Gazette". Mr. Shribman seems to have edited Mr. Lincoln to fit today's politically-correct prejudices of the left (eg Most editors and publishers of daily newspapers), especially as what he did not bring to the attention of readers.

Although President Lincoln may have been a "friend of the soldiers" he was also an expert politician and was very aware that his strongest support came from the troops in the field and insured that they would be able to cast those timely votes which insured his reelection. This is a lesson for the Republican Party which has failed to insure that such would be true in the 2008 election---And lost that election.

Mr. Lincoln also did not fail to allow the execution of a deserter (Deserters?) to emphasis the point that such is a deadly crime and threat when the nation is at war as we now are. Mr. Lincoln knew his war policies were spending the blood, limbs and lives of soldiers; But, valued the preservation of the Union more. It is yet to be seen if Mr. Obama will understand that freedom from Islamic and drug-lord terrorism requires the same spending.

Mr. Lincoln also actively used Military Tribunals to try terrorists (eg Leaders of the war-time revolt by the Lakota Tribe) and approved the mass execution of 30-some of those criminals.

Notwithstanding his opposition to race-based slavery, it appears that Mr. Lincoln never retreated from his reasoned doubts that Blacks would never be the equal of Whites. We must still await a longer time before the measures of equality-or-inequality can be measured (eg School performance levels, misuse of firearms and other crime rates, out-of-wedlock birth rates), on a truly historical basis-To confirm or reject Mr. Lincoln's conclusions.

Mr. Lincoln was, as not noted in the cited article, a strong supporter of free enterprise and of corporations as the source of real economic strength and development.

For better-or-worse we will have four years to determine if Mr. Obama will learn the real lessons from Mr. Lincoln.

No Catholic Invocations---Well And Good

It is just as well that there were no Catholic (Or Orthodox) clergy giving invocations at the installation of B. H. Obama. That would have required them to "reach out" to the hands of someone who is in the process of staining his claws with the blood of innocent, unborn, children.

It appears that he is also extending those talons to those (eg The Mullah dominated rulers of Iran) in the Islamic world who also worship death and exactly support the teachings of the false prophet Mohammed: Teachings which allow or encourage, if not command, the use of murder, rape, enslavement, genocide, robbery and perpetual war with "unbelievers" to further the universal conquest goals of Islam and the power and sexual manias of adult, male, Muslims.

(Now, if the Holy See will stop "reaching out" to the blood soaked hands of Islam and Mr. Obama!!!)

Children As "Collateral Damage"

Today my local daily paper published a "Washington Post" article ("War leaves deep scars on Gaza's Children") in which the psychological damage to those small people as inflicted by the air and other response-attacks by Israel---Without noting the like damage caused by the steady and grinding rocket attacks by Hamas thugs against the Jewish, Muslim, Christian and Druze children of Israel.

Yes, the deaths of and damage to Gaza's children are war-time "collateral damage" which resulted from their parents' election of Hamaa to govern their non-state and Gazian sheltering of rocket, mortar and gun firing Jihadi in their homes, schools and other places where children are.

Of course, I should note that the number of those Gazian deaths are statistically meaningless compared to the number of killings caused by the "collateral damage" of Mr. Obama's and the DNC's policies in supporting and expanding the murder of children in the womb. (No doubt editors will wish to note the children of Israel and aborted babies in newspaper editorials and TV commentary.)

'1984", FOCA & Resisting State Terrorism

In George Orwell's most important novel, "1984", the tyranny of "Big Brother" maintains, with the full force of the State, a system of "doublepeak" in which "war is peace", "starvation is plenty" and, most of all, "lies are truth". This "newspeak" is at the core of the brain-washing basic to the maintenance of power in Orwell's "Oceania" and in such acts of our government as the proposed "FOCA".

"FOCA" is the "Freedom Of Choice Act" which, in the tradition of Orwell and the Democratic National Committee. takes away the freedom of individuals and organizations to NOT participate in the killing of unborn children, calling it "choice". (The "Democratic" is another "newspeak" term for an organization which allows quotas for delegates to its national convention from, at the least, California, by race, color, gender, but not creed as that would require some 75% plus of delegates to be believing Christians.)

If the FOCA is passed into law, any efforts to enforce it (By judges, police and others), using the power of the State (To fine, imprison, seize property) will be as much acts of State Terrorism as any in 1984 or the mis-rule of Hitler, Stalin and others of that ilk.

Such state terrorism may, should and must be resisted by whatever level of effort and force as is required to stop it. I put no limits on the degree of force which may be needed to do so and warn all persons attempting to enforce any FOCA that they will be considered without the protection of Natural Law. Or, to paraphrase the militia captain at Lexington in 1775: "If they want a war, let it begin here and now!".

As for myself, I will hold any Member of the Congress who votes for FOCA as equally responsible for any resulting acts of state terrorism.

What Is A Terrorist? What To Do With Them!

In denoting the terrorist-prisoners held at Guantanamo Bay (And other places) as "enemy combatants" is misleading and contrary to the general thrust of the laws of war.

However, we do appear to lack a common and useful definition of "terrorists" to differentiate such from legitimate "enemy combatants". Combing the two would include, with actual terrorists, those uniformed military of recognized governments who wage war against us and our allies on the basis of the authority of their political superiors and generally in accordance with the laws-of-war. Real "enemy combatants", when captured, are protected by the Geneva Conventions, treated as POWs and are generally protected from prosecution as criminals (Except for such "war crimes" as many high-ranking Nazis and Japanese military leaders were held accountable).

This definition of "terrorists" might include some persons in "resistance movements" which the USA and its allies have favored in the past.

Therefore, I offer the following and "operational" definition of "terrorist": "An individual who, with or without the assistance of others, wages war against the USA, its allies and civilians under their protection, while not a uniformed member of a military unit belonging to a recognized government OR who is/are under arms with the obvious intent of doing so. This definition does NOT include those civilians who are forced to suddenly defend themselves against foreign or domestic terrorist or other criminal attacks in the absence of immediate and effective protection by the police or military of their recognized governments.".

I strongly recommend gemeral editorial acceptance and support of the above definition of "terrorist".

I also recommend that the Congress execute its Constitutional authority; to exclude the jurisdiction of the civilian Federal Courts over "terrorists" as defined above and leave them to the jurisdiction of such military commissions as were very properly used by President Abraham Lincoln (Claimed as a role model by Mr. Obama)..

Those terrorists now held by us in military prisons should be glad they are held in military custody as their transfer into the general populations of our maximum security prisons would place them in a living hell populated with men much tougher than they are and very much more evil.

Is Obama A Citizen Of The USA?

Barack Husein Obama is certainly the most questionably “American” person to be "elected" to the post of President of the USA. There are those who still doubt his Constitutional qualification to assume that post as those persons doubt he is a natural born citizen of the USA and, perhaps, accepted citizenship in another nations since his birth. OR holding dual citizenship and never making the timely selection for US-only citizenship.

It is not an excessive use of discretion to: Require a forensic (Type of paper used as compared with others, by sub-atomic analysis, on file for the same month and year; Evaluate it as compared with any serial numbers in the same hospital and state records office, compare required signatures with those on other and contemporary like documents, etc.) evaluation of his Birth Certificate; And, determine if he were ever listed as a citizen of Kenya (His father's nation) or Indonesia (Where, it appears, he was listed as a citizen on school records), what is the earliest entry of that listing/claim (If any), what is the age in Indonesia at which a male may make such a commitment to citizenship there.

If, due to his father's nationality or acts withing Indonesia, Mr. Obama had dual citizenship, I believe our laws require him to make a written selection of US citizenship within a certain time-frame, which is long since past.

Failure to resolve the unknowns here may. later, result in severe Constitutional questions as to the authority of any acts of Mr. Obama. For example, any person accused of violating any Executive Order or Law signed by Mr. Obama may make an “offer of proof” (See above on forensic examination) that such are invalid as Mr. Obama is not a US citizen and is constitutionally incapable of executing the office he now claims to be his.

The Church, Guns & Self-Defense

As a Latin-Rite (Roman) Catholic I have found a number of serious problems with the teachings of my church as to self-defense, the duty to defend innocent others and the private possession of the means to enforce that right and to execute that duty.

The first problem is the English language translation of the Fifth Commandment as "Thou shall not kill". I have it on expert advise (Two learned Rabbis) that the correct translation is "Thou shall not murder". The Church's (English) translation provides a subtle, but real, bias against the use of deadly force as needed where the authorities of the State (Or, in some cases as the Sudan, international bodies) are unable and even unwilling to protect the innocent in a timely manner (That is to say, before harm is done to the innocent).

Secondly, the writers of the Catechism Of The Catholic Church appear to never have been in close personal combat as they presume an ability to instantly determine, in such settings, how much force to use to repeal attacks on the innocent, limiting it to only that which is necessary to repeal such assaults. (As a matter of reality, the only way to insure self-defense or defense of innocents is to kill the attacker as a wounded attacker or one only threatened with harm is still capable of attacks and evidence is such that such criminal assaults will occur in those cases.)

Thirdly, that Catechism should have clearly denoted such attacks as rape or taking away the means of livelihood (To prevent starvation or other serious harm) as attacks which justify the use of deadly force. (Those mostly-or-totally male-and-clerical authors of that work have been too shaped by their general immunity from hunger and isolation from women to be reliable in this matter.) [Those authors also forget the mental or physical sweat which goes into the lawful earning of property and that the criminal taking of that property is also the taking away of that part of persons' lives which was expended to earn it---Making every robbery a little murder.]

Fourthly, that Catechism extends its authors' ignorance of combat to the military world of war when-and-where it is impossible to control the side-effects and "collateral damage" (Even with the extreme care exercised by the Armed Forces of the USA and State Of Israel) through the use of modern weapons. For a proper instruction for the waging of war, those authors should have referred to St. Bernard of Clairvaux's De Laude Militae Novae. Those authors also are unaware that terrorist-prisoners, not protected by the Geneva Conventions, continue to wage war against the innocent by withholding information needed to protect such, wherein "forceful, non-deadly" questioning is justified. (After all, terrorists caught in their illegal acts could, by international law, be otherwise subject to very-summary, field courts-martial and immediately executed.)

Lastly, that Catechism forcefully comes out in favor of the State or international bodies "regulating" the manufacture and sale of arms. Those ivory-tower theorists have apparently not studied history and noted that such control is the first step of any tyranny (eg By such as Hitler and Stalin against their subjects and the rulers of Islamic nations against non-Muslims) before going on to murder, rape, enslavement, robbery, genocide and the other horrors of such lords-of-misrule.

A supplementary thought: Can you think of any persons more innocent than unborn babies as are being murdered by the agents of the state-terrorism supported abortion industry?

Word For The Wise---Panegyrist RE: Obama

In the days of the Roman Empires the maximum-leaders' courts often maintained, at public expense, a professional praise-giver called a "Panegyrist". These persons were expected to proclaim the virtues, service for the common good and other accomplishments of the Emperors---Even if they did not exist.

It appears that most of the publishers, editors, reporters and TV-types (Outside of the Fox network) in this nation are saving the USA much money by voluntarily executing the duties of that office as to Mr. Obama during his campaign and, I expect, over the next four years.Thanks boys and girls! What would we do without you?

Don't Ask, Don't Tell Works----Don't Change It

At the present time our volunteer military may be the best and most ethical ever to engage in warfare. The number of persons committing war crimes (As defined by violations of the Geneva Conventions---Which extend NO protections to terrorists) is so small, compared to the number of military persons, as to be statistically meaningless.

Even with the casualty rates in Iraq and Afghanistan (And the frequent and forgotten like rates due to normal training "events") the reenlistment rate for "the troops" is very high, especially among those actually involved in combat.

For the largest part, military personnel are supported by a culture of machismo and strict attention to proper conduct---Both in living in a closeness which most civilian Americans have not experienced and cannot understand. This is maintained by the "Don't ask, don't tell" rule which excludes and rejects openly homosexual activities and life-styles.

Therefore, why change what works? The proposals to do so are "politically correct" from a leftist point-of-view; But, is not in the "common good"---Especially as to the defense of this nation by its best young men and women.

Regarding Children (A Poem)

Regarding children (a poem)
Mimi Evans Winship

Some children are cherished,
Some used as shields.
These are the realities
Fanaticism yields.

Do we blame the defenders
Who fight for their young
And champion the militants
Who safeguard no one?

Let reason prevail
Put emotions aside.
In whom do the hopes
Of the children reside

What Is Islam? A Medical Model!

What is Islam? This question has been in my mind for many of my 70-years, especially since "9/11".

In my childhood Islam and Muslims were something far away and represented by unusual or strange clothing, language and customs. In my youth, Islam appeared to be another monotheistic religion which joined with Judaism and Christianity in worshiping One God; But, with many beliefs strange and outside many Christian concepts.(Later those differences were well explained to me by G. K Chesterton who declared that Islam was a Christian heresy, the only one grown outside of the Roman Empire, and based on Mohammed's misinterpretation of Jewish and Christian teachings AND his self-serving selection of those which served his personal needs.)

Since "9/11" my intense readings as to the history and teachings of Islam led me to the temporary conclusion that Islam is (In its essential and unchangeable nature, principles, teachings and practices) a 1400-year old criminal-terrorist movement which allows or encourages, if not commands, the use of murder, enslavement, rape, genocide, revenge and perpetual war with "unbelievers" to further its goals and the apparently sex and power cravings of its adult male members. (The overlay of religion being no more of importance than the same for the Mafia or Chinese Triads.)

In these latter days I tend to view Islam as a pathology or disease or cancer which has (Literally) plagued humanity since it erupted (Like a septic boil) out of Arabia. The medical model fits as Islam will grow at a cancerous rate and is relevant only to its own feeding and other needs and not that of humanity (The body it contaminates)--Unless it is slowed down or locally destroyed by the political equals of such cancer treatments as radiation, surgery and chemotherapy (Think bullets, bayonets/swords and napalm).

The metastasis of Islam, like cancer, spreads that disease by planting its cells in otherwise healthy organisms; BUT, is more likely to grow (And bring pain and terror) in those bodies-politic as are weakened by secular-humanism and the emasculation of properly militant Christianity. Sweden, France, Denmark and other nations have discovered the deadly threat of such corrupt and corrupting growths. The Labour government and too many Anglican bishops of the UK are "falling over their own feet" towards self-subjugation to Islam. Spain and the Holy See are very far down the paths to such self-destruction. I fear that the "political correctness" disease endemic to the USA will allow the further spread of this ant-civilization disorder in that, my homeland.

This medical model is superior to the philosophical or social models as "talk" or "talk therapy" does not, never has and will never have any effect in reducing the damages caused by Islam or its infection-like growth. This is a fact that those in the Holy See, too many other Christian leaders and most government officials do not or will not recognize.

The only hope for a health and Islamic-cancer free humanity is the installment of some oil-free and massive power system (eg Nuclear fission) as will allow the crushing of any Muslims who follow, by deeds, the above noted and hate-filled teachings of Mohammed.

Dancing Aroung The Gaza-Israel Conflict

Editors, publishers, politicians, diplomats, religious leaders and others are all "dancing around" the real base for the Arab-Israel conflicts----Including the rocket attacks from Gaza and the efforts of Israel to stop them. That avoided issue is the combined teachings oi the Koran and the Hadith (The collected sayings of Mohammed) which preach killing Jews and declare that any land (eg What is now Israel) ever ruled by Muslims must always be so ruled. In the long run, there are only two possible and final solutions to the noted problem.
I.
That all rulers of Muslim majority nations and all Muslim religious leaders declare that the State of Israel has an absolute right to exist within its present boundaries and with its own system-of-laws AND that those teachings of the Hadith and Koran noted above are evil and against the will and law of Allah.
II.
That Israel level all buildings and remove all people from that strip, in the Gaza, plant creeping grass to allow clear fields of fire and declare that Gaza is a "free fire zone" AND indicate that it is willing to do the same to Palestine or the "West Bank".

TAKE YOUR PICK! ANY OTHER PROPOSED "SOLUTIONS" WILL BE FALSE AS TO BASIC FACTS AND FAIL OF THAT LACK.

No "Truce" Within Islam Or With Muslims

In discussing recent Israel-Hammas conflict it is proper to discuss the western concept of “truce” VS. the Arabic concept of “Hudna”; Both referring to the temporary stopping of overt, physical conflict.


Within the West “truce” the has always had the implication that such will lead to a long term peace, often based on negotiations and an expectation that the spirit of “truce” will be more important than the letter of a truce agreement. In Western tradition any truce violations are likely to be considered in proportion to their seriousness, with a reluctance to totally cancel the “truce” for minor reasons.


Within (At least, Arab) “Islam”, the term “hudna” implies only a period for regeneration of powers so that the stalled conflict may be again pursued with renewed vigor. Any, no matter how slight, violation of “hudna” is considered sufficient to allow resumption of hostilities at the convenience of the aggressor.. Mohamed himself, in his feud with the Quraysh clan, set the pattern of this use of “hudna” as a tactical ploy.


For believing Muslims, the example of Mohammed is generally binding on them. A principle of their ideology is all persons and Peoples are either within Islam or at war with it and, following the example of the "Prophet", any stopping of hostilities can be considered only temporary.


In the present case, calls upon Israel to begin and honor a "truce" is only a measure in support of Hammas and all Muslims whose original leader called upon them to: Kill all Jews; Restore and maintain Islamic law and rule over any lands ever ruled by Muslims; And, to continue to battle and defeat the West and Western Civilization as "not Islamic"..


Most Western criticisms of Israel for not accepting another "Hudna" (I will not use the term "truce") with Hammas is based on either a misunderstanding of the terms-and-conditions of doing so (Only to the advantage of Islam) or dislike-or-hatred of Jews or have been bought-or-leased by Arab money---OR, suffer from some sort of pathological self-hate.

The Winds Of Palestine & Gaza---AP & NYT

The Muslims of the Gaza and Palestine have sown the wind---By allowing and abeting the launching of rockets against Israel from their terror-terries and by sheltering terrorists and their weapons in private homes.

They have reaped the whirlwind of Israel's reaction---And have the gall to complain when such emphatic justice in imposed on them.

What I find as specially disturbing is the AP-New York Times description of Palestinian rocket attacks as "pelting" (As if they were using snow-balls in Wisconsin or candied almonds at a Sicilian wedding) Israel with rockets, while noting a rain of bombs on the thugs in the Gaza. This is further evidence of the bias of those one-time news organizations upon which too many newspapers waste their limited resources for wire services.

Oh yes: I am not of the Jewish Faith nor do I have any financial interests in the State of Israel.

Mussolini, Hitler, Christianity & Islam

The present role of too many in the Holy See (And other positions of secular and Christian leadership in Europe) to the forces of Islam is the same as that of Mussolini to Hitler: One of fawning, subservient, bowing-and-scraping, corrupt, boot-licking and self-prostituting worms.

The cowardliness of such Christian "leaders" (And their equally weak and self=serving secular fellows) begins and is based on their unwillingness (And pathological inability) to declare the truths about Islam:: Beginning with its goals to subvert and destroy the Christian Churches---Without regard to any "reaching out" and joint meetings of Christian clergy and Muslim dissemblers; And, continuing with the re-revelation that the basic and unchangeable teachings approve and allow, if not command, the use of murder, rape, enslavement, genocide, robbery and perpetual war with "unbelievers" to gain that goal.

As to such people, I paraphrase: It would have been better if they had not been born!

Within the USA and few other refuges for strong and self-sacrificing Christians (And equally valiant and righteous Jews and Sikhs) there is still some hope that the new Jihad will be resisted and, as in better days, suppressed to a meaningless, yet hate-filled, ideology.

As to the USA I am very concerned that the equally Nazi-like forces of Secular-Humanists (ie Militant Atheists) will attempt to use "diversity" and giving way to Islamic interests in an effort to destroy the place of Christians and Jews in our common history and in the public forums of politics, common schools, universities, court houses, legislative bodies and executive offices----Where they have already had too much success by the use of half-truths (Worse than lies) and a slow grinding away of individual and Natural Law rights.

Defending Islamic Humor

Who really claims that Muslims have no sense-of-humor? Why, such persons have truly misunderstood the "joking" of the "Fort Dix Six" who were only "kidding" when they, so humorously, bantered about killing as many US military as is possible at Fort Dix.

Of course, some might claim that statements claiming that any such acts were for "for Allah" were in bad taste; But, some such lack of political correctness and good manners is so common on late-night TV talk shows as to cause no great damage to the Muslim equivalent of the authors of the Islamic version of the Joe Miller Joke Book. No doubt, their extended stay as a guest of the USA (In some maximum security prison) will allow them to continue their careers as some of Islam's most funny people.

Since there are many Muslims in the USA, you might wish to forward this note to such as you know and others interested in their "Faith"---To support Muslim's own humor life and the place of Islam in maintaining the tradition of broad humor as a typical American institution,.

Science 101 For Journalists

It appears to me that some newspapers do an excellent job of presenting self-produced stories on the hard sciences (eg Chemistry, Physics, Biology.). Although such offerings often require more than one careful reading (And often require me to "strain my brain"), the facts are often clear and the presentation appropriate for the serious reader. An excellent example of such is the December 14th offering by the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel on stem cell research!

The real problems in your science reporting lies in three areas: As to articles regarding the "soft sciences" (eg Psychology, Sociology, Political Science); Articles reprinted from wire services or other newspapers and their less careful editors or science reporters; And, printed or reprinted without included evaluation as to the existence/lack of good scientific-research standards for each such report.

Although all such "problem" articles should be put to the tests of sound science, it might be well for your paper (In a Sunday editorial section) to educate/reeducate your readers (And some reporters and editors) as to those principles of good research VS. what is, too often, inflicted on the public as such. Newspapers not underestimate their serious (The people who still read real newspapers) readers as they do carefully read stories as to real or meaningless research.

Below I have included a (Probably partial) list of subjects for any such presentation or series.

POSSIBLE SCIENCE TOPICS FOR NEWSPAPER USE IN EDUCATING READERS & STAFF
1. What is "research design"?
2. Experimental VS. control group studies; Selection and exclusion of
subjects.
3. Multi-factor matching research.
4. Levels-Of-Confidence (With/without explaining T-scores).
5. The basics of "averages", "means" and other statistical terms.
6. Defining the terms and limits of any research project; And, to what extent
can any research project lead to reliable-and-valid conclusions.
7.The scientific meaning of "reliable-and-valid".
8. The scientific meaning of "bias" as to research.
9. Sources of "bias" including, but not limited to: The motivations of those funding
research; Biases in selecting subjects or data bases; "Politically correct" avoidance
of "offending" those who are easily offended; Use of non-standardized or
non-structured interviewing techniques where personal interviews are used;
Exclusion, by the experimenter or in the pool of subjects, of persons whose
involvement would be necessary to draw reliable-and-valid general conclusions;
ETC..

Religion 101 For Journalists

Along with reporters-and-editors failures to properly present and evaluate news regarding science (And to, thereby, educate their readers), the failure of journalists to accurately and fully present the essential teachings of religions and like ideologies is anathema to me and, I suspect, many readers----Especially those who are members of such religions or equivalent ideologies.

Although both failures may represent the lack of a suitable education or just plain laziness and lack of professional responsibility, the lack of information or actual bias and misinformation as to religions may be founded on some conscious or suppressed desire to destroy the place of religion in our current public forums (Including newspapers, public schools, history books and court houses). Of course, some of these failures may also be based on the false premises that "all religions are the same" or even the even falser premise that there is nothing good in any religion (Usually put forth by the Mullahs of the religion of Atheism in a all too common effort to suppress other Faiths and not allow the People free choice).

Journalists should write, from a sound knowledge base, of religions as to their: Orthodox and heterodox teachings as defined by both members and critics (Pointing out the biases of each); Note how those teachings impact on today's members and others; And, be prepared, when appropriate, to note how such faiths have had an impact on history and such subjects as the development of general human knowledge and schools, medical science, governments, military aggression and defensive actions, the Law itself, and those like areas as provide the matrix of true civilizations or the alternative failures to support humane, human behaviors.

Certainly, the recent failure of too many journalists to be fully honest about the historical and present "dark side" of Islam, and that phenomena's direct relationship to the core and unalterable teachings of the Koran and like authority of the Hadith is specially noted as unprofessional journalism.

Excluding Or Dominating Different Beliefs

The Milwaukee Journal Sentinel's December 21st "Quick Hit" of Ms. Lori Pyter (A member of that paper's "Editorial Board's Reader Advisory Committee") contained the following and totally wrong statement: "We cannot fight to exclude or dominate those with different beliefs".

Having 34-plus years of professional experience with those whose beliefs support their robbing, raping, assaulting and killing others, I suggest that there are those beliefs we must fight and dominate.

I further suggest that we should also fight, dominate and destroy those whose beliefs as include support for their ideology's approval, if not commands, to use murder, rape, enslavement, genocide,robbery and perpetual war with others to further their causes---As supported by the majority "true believers" of conservative Islam, Nazis and like enemies-of-humanity.

There are those who falsely maintain that all "religions" (Or like ideologies) are the same and that the peaceful basic laws (Without regard to the failure of some to follow them) of Christianity and Buddhism are, in no way, superior to the bloody rites of the Aztecs, the essential-and-unchangeable violence of Islam, the murderous worship of Kali or the Neo-Paganism of the Nazis. Many maintain that the latter group of dangerous ideologies (Some masquerading as "religions") should and must be excluded from human and humane society.

There are those who note that male homosexuals are the leading disease-vector for AIDS/HIV in the USA and who have concluded that the one-man & one-women institution of marriage (In spite of too many failures caused by lack of adult behavior by too many persons) is the essential and soundest basis for any civilization---And that the "homosexual agenda" must be resisted and excluded from public approval for the "Common Good".

I think the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel should be advised by those who do maintain such mental standards as support the progress and maintenance of civilization and NOT those who would destroy it in the name of some "false god diversity".

Oxford Junior Dictionary VS. Christianity

This entry could as well have been headed, "The Price Of A Multi-Cultural Society" OR
"Destroying History So Its Mistakes Can Be Repeated".

The "Oxford Junior Dictionary" (UK) has dropped such words as "bishop", "disciple",
"chapel", "sin" and "devil".

If such measures are successful, then the Secularists (ie Atheists) can begin eliminating such words as "Buddha", "Gospel", "mercy", "Democracy", "History", "Jews", "Justice", "God", "Jesus" and (If and only if those mind killers have the courage) "Koran", "Islam" and "Mohammed".

Such "verbal engineering" as comes before "social engineering" should remind all of the of the "newspeak" in George Orwell's novel "1984". Of course, this novel and its lessons are not taught in "newschools" or known in "newnewsrooms".

On Bombing Churches & Defense Of Liberty

I am old enough to remember when anti-Black statements, by the KKK and others, were basic to the bombing and fire-bombing of Black churches in the USA's South. I can now reasonably ask if the anti-Christian rhetoric by professional-atheists, Muslims and others is basic to the recent rash of church invasions AND the fire-bombing of the Wasilla, Alaska Bible Church (When women and children were present) on December 13, 2008.

Of course, this last attack could be on the basis of political hate as it is the home church of Alaska's Governor Sarah Palin. In that case, the range of suspects would expand to include outraged, pro-death, professional-"feminists", such Democrats as (In Milwaukee, Wisconsin) sent party operatives (One the son of a Member of the Congress) out to slash the tires of vans leased by Republicans to transport the aged and infirm to the polls or any other leftist (Who are generally enemies of democracy and the real rule-of-law, which enemies include hyperactive, pro-left, judges).

In any case, such an attack goes well beyond the level of an "insult" as requires Christians to "turn the other cheek". Fire bombings, mob action invasions and like acts of anti-Christians allow, if not require, the same response as made by those Crusaders who drove the Islamic terrorists out of Iberia, Sicily the Balkans Greece and stopped them at such places as the Polish-Lithuanian border, the Bay of Lepanto and the Gates of Vienna (On a better "9/11") AND those modern Crusaders who destroyed the Nazis and put down the evil of Imperial Japan. If the forces of government cannot control such new and anti-Christian terrorists, then Christians must physically destroy them lest they injure or kill such innocents as were present in Ms. Palin's Church or otherwise put such in danger or even fear of death or great bodily injury.

To paraphrase the militia captain at Lexington in 1775, "If they want a war, let it begin now!".(Perhaps those Americans who "cling to their religion and guns" per Senator Obama have a good reason for their recent surge in buying firearms.)

What Is "Free Exercise Of Religion"?

It appears that the essential limit to the Federal Government's (And that of the States via the 14th Amendment) to interference with religious-based behavior (Not thoughts or ideas which, even if expressed, are beyond such interference to this time) is the question: Does the government, for the People, have a "compelling state interest" in so interfering?

During the next four years, this matter may become front-and-center in this very divided nation. We the People, our elected representatives and the courts should be prepared to determine if our governments have an "compelling state interest" to:
1. Compel hospitals, doctors, pharmacists and other like institutions and persons
to act against their religion-based consciences to perform or enable abortion,
distribute birth-control drugs or services, teach anything positive about those actions
in our public or private schools or other places;
2. Take away the tax-exempt status of any religious organization for directly addressing,
including from pulpits and in publications, the perceived moral standing of political
parties, officials, or candidate for office or their positions on public issues
(Remembering that the power to tax is the power to destroy);
3. Punish individuals or corporations for withholding services or goods on the
same basis;
4.Take away, probably by small increments, the Natural Law Right (As a religious
belief) of persons to defend themselves and other innocent persons from
criminal attacks and to have ready means (Modern fire arms and ammunition) to do
in the usual lack of such a police or military presence or unwillingness to instantly
provide such protection (Remember that tyrants such as Hitler, Stalin and the
Muslim rulers of various lands all did so before moving on to great crimes);
5. Use some form of "fairness doctrine" to drive off the airways religious programs
and those commentators who support religious life and the unfettered place of
religion in public forums;
6. Establish Atheism as the State Religion (Yes, it is a religion as it is based on the
"theological" premise that there is no God nor gods; And, has been ruled a religion
by the USA's Seventh Circuit Court Of Appeals);
7. Take away from parents and guardians the right to avoid public schools by
home schooling, use of private schools and other means.
8. Attack Christianity and Christians by placing other religions in the public schools
and forums (eg Mandatory practice of Muslim religious rites in California schools,
without prior notice to parents and without giving other religions an equal place;
New York City's placement of Muslim and Jewish symbols in public places while
excluding Christian symbols in the same locations); And,
9. And, no doubt, many other, defining and dividing issues.

You and all citizens should remember the history of some of these issues (So as not to be condemned to repeat prior errors) and that some of them resulted in revolt, revolution, the trial and execution of chiefs-of-state and other officials and the overturning of governments.

Now, how will our elect officials act and editors comment on these issue?

Mall Of The Americas & Islamic Prayer Space

I understand that the Mall Of The Americas has provided special, holiday, prayer space for Muslims, who hope for a permanent like space there.

I have been unable to determine if like space is provided for Christians, Jews, Buddists, Shintoists. More specially, what holiday provisions will be made for the worshipers of Kali, Ba'al and the old Aztec gods? In other words, where can I make my holiday sacrifice of goats or virgins (Assuming any are left) and babies (No, not in an abortion mill, although that mall may offer that service as it now supports Islam, a criminal-terrorist ideology which allows or encourages, and sometimes commands, the use of murder, rape, genocide, slavery, robbery and perpetual war).

IN RE: Proposed Australian Bill-Of-Rights

Having gone over the proposed, Australian, Bill Of Rights the following comments leapt our of my mind.
1. It appears to be written by attorneys for attorneys, and to insure that that group
of persons (Who produce nothing which can be eaten, worn, provide shelter or
give innocent pleasure) lose any income if it is enacted.
2. It fails (Like the Bill Of Rights in the USA) to define "religion" and exclude from
inclusion in that definition ideologies which encourage, solicit and command
physical attacks on humans outside each such ideology's membership.
3. Unless I missed it, it does not provide for each citizen's Natural Law right to
defend themselves and innocent others from dangerous, physical, attacks AND,
where the forces of government cannot provide instant protection from such
attacks, the full right to do so AND the means to enforce that right.
4. I fail to understand the separation of Article-7 and Article-8 and would welcome
some explanation of that action. (In any case and to avoid the errors of the
Canadian system, I would suggest the addition of some such wording as "No
person has any right to expect protection from intellectual attacks on his/her
religion or ideologies or political positions or any non-physical object by other
persons exercising their rights under this section.".)
5, Article-20 should include an exception for sentences (eg "At hard labour") imposed
by a court upon conviction of a crime.
6. Article-28should include the same provision forbidding retroactive civil penalties.
7. MOST IMPORTANTLY, AUSTRALIANS SHOULD INCLUDE SOME PROVISION FOR
THE LEGISLATIVE OVERTURNING OF SUPREME OR OTHER FEDERAL COURT
DECISIONS---PERHAPS BY A TWO-THIRDS VOTE OF ALL MEMBERS PRESENT
IN BOTH HOUSES OF PARLIAMENT. (This to keep the definition of "rights" within
the legislative branch, as has NOT been the case in the USA, and the gross
abuse of the law, generally, by the too-independent courts of Canada. This would do
much to relieve the concerns of those who fear the imposition of a god-like
judiciary.)

If You Can't Say Anything Nice...

My mother frequently told me, "If you can't say something nice about a person, do not speak". Line many other sons, I have (As my readers very specially know) ignored that motherly advise.

Perhaps, Senator Obama's mother told him, "If you can not speak the exact truth, do not speak" AND he is following that good advise as to his or his organization's interactions with Governor Blagojevich (As he has avoided the whole truth as to his birth and many issues facing the American People).

Congressional Gender Discrimination?

Today's issue of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reported that Congress-Critter Gwen Moore had been appointed as "Vice Chairwoman" of the "Congressional Caucus For Women's Issues" in the House Of Representatives. Who are the chairs of the like "men's caucus"?

There is such a men's caucus? Right? To not have one would be a prime example of discrimination on the basis of that uncontrollable, genetic, factor of "gender"!

Some "men's issues" include, but are not limited to::
1. Unequal judicial treatment of divorced fathers in child custody and support matters (Especially when the parents live in different States, making this a Federal matter); And,
2. Government's use of unreliable and invalid numbers for the alleged disparity in
pay between men and women, which do not account for initial education, the amount and continuity of education and training while employed, continuity of employment and like permutations.

New Income DISPARITY On Genetic Factor

This morning's news report noted a study that demonstrated that left-handed men have average an income greater (Dependent on education, up to 26%) than right handed men.

Since "income disparity" is the foundation of many claims of discrimination on the basis of other genetic differences (eg Race & gender) I am (As a right handed male) awaiting preferential treatment in hiring (Especially in the public sector where my right-handedness will, then, allow me to be hired before those who are otherwise more qualified), government contract "set asides" and the ability to sue those who make negative comments or "jokes" (Either of which "offend me") about my, genetic based, right-handed nature over which I have no control and which has resulted in the noted disparity. (If I lived in California and were a member of the Democrat Party, I would expect a "quota" position on their representatives at National nominating conventions.)

I am now awaiting formal, repeated, written, open and very strong legislative and editorial support of all elected officials and all editors for such actions as will correct this disparity.

Academic Fraud & "Sue Them!"

On reflecting on the considerable amount of time some professors misuse in inflicting (Usually "left wing") propaganda on students in lieu of what was described in school's course descriptions, the following "cautions" are provided.

Professors! Could you defend your varying from pre-announced course content in a student based law suit (For real and punitive damages AND as based on claims of fraud or breach of contract) before Courts much more interested in the "Law Of Contracts" (Which is very well defined in statutes and inter-state compacts and the whole body of the law) VS. "Academic Freedom" (Which does NOT have a like authority in the Courts)?

University Officials! Could you, likewise, successfully defend against such actions AND those which claim a breach-of-contract based on your published statements as to "academic freedom"? Is writing vague and misleading course descriptions a defense against such actions?

Students & Student Associations! Do you have the moral courage (And the hope of paying for your educations) by gathering together to file such suits as groups-of-named-students OR in class action suits?

Could any of such misleading statements or actions by professors or schools elevate such violations to the level of criminal fraud?
=================================================================================
NOTE OF JUNE 23, 2011: Even where universities use "weasel words" to describe individual courses or students' "academic freedom", it would appear that there are still "causes-in-action" based on a general expectation of that principle by enrolling in any (At least public) university. As an example, giving a student a failing or very-low grades after a "philosophical" differences with a teacher might be construed as a form of libel and, if the teacher made post-difference and equivalent statements in the classroom, slander.
Since many trial-attorneys are always on-the-hunt for such deep pocket defendants as public universities (Who may not be immune from suits), even the cost of defending such actions might bring corrective pressures on schools.

Solving The Congo & Zimbabwe Problems

Too many (Especially at the "Useless Nations" (UN) have been dancing around the obvious solution to the horrid problems in and of the Congo and Zimbabwe. That solution is to return those areas to White rule as Blacks have clearly demonstrated their inability and unwillingness to manage their own affairs.

Of course, the "contract rulers" would be entitled to a reasonable (20%?) portion of those nations' incomes (Thus providing motivation to improve their economies) and the authority to shoot-on-sight any Black found armed with a pistol, bomb or military rifle (After a very short grace period in which such weapons could be turned in to the new rulers). (That portion of national wealth-and-income would be required to pay for the several divisions or many brigades of trained troops (eg Ghurkas?) needed for the initial peace establishing period.

In fact, such an arrangement could be applied to certain (Generally urban) portions of France, the UK and (Most specially) the USA, as well as Palestine and other like non-governed lands.

Of course, the implementation of such a plan would bring many "ivory towers" tumbling about the head of the too many "words can solve problems" useless persons and organizations.

Please remember that civilization is a structure with ORDER at its base, upon which is established LAW and, when those are fixed in place, building of JUSTICE may then (And only them) proceed.

How Republicans Can Win

Well, too many Republican candidates lost AND various pre-election hints from myself and many, many, others as to avoiding such a lose (Or minimizing its effects) were (As far as I can determine) ignored.
If, and only if, Republican office holders, RNC members and their staffers with to be on a winning team they, and we other Republicans, must insist on the strict enforcement of the rules and tactics noted below.

1. All Members of the Congress must pledge to NOT include or allow any "pork" or "ear marks" in Bills introduced by them or others (Of any Party). Members who violate this rule should and must lose the financial, political and personal support of all other Members, the RNC and their staffers who would, likewise, lose that support for not doing so.
2. All Members must use every rule advantage (Including the filibuster for Senators) to defeat any such "ear marks" and "pork" as well as opposition to those of the below matters which may come within the jurisdiction of the Congress.
3. No Republican staffer can be allowed, under penalty of instant dismissal, be allowed to "bad mouth" or "slang" nominated candidates as was the case of some, with over inflated senses of self-worth, as to Governor Palin--Even if such statements came from their principals.
4. The Party (And all Members and candidates sign off on a like statement) must clearly state that every sane, law-abiding and adult citizen has the right to safely keep and bear arms for hunting, self-defense and other lawful purposes AND that right may not be encumbered by destructive, hateful, and other like rules designed to grind down that right.
5. The Party must clearly state (With the written concurrence of all Members and candidates--Unless there occur are some unforeseen scientific advances) that: There have been NO safe and effective medical treatments derived from embryonic stem cell research and no Republican will support such. However, the Party recognizes the wonderful, fruitful and exciting advances made from other forms of cell research and supports such.alternate and ethical studies.
6. The Party must clearly state that the parents and guardians of children and youth have absolute authority over which schooling those young people should have be it in our to be improved public schools or private religion/secular-based private schools or by home schooling by those parents or groups-of-parents or those they have teach in their homes. The Party must also note that the parents of public school pupils and students have an absolute right to prior notice of and prior "opt outs" of such sex-education, cultural indoctrination (eg anti/pro homosexual teaching sessions; practices of Islamic or other religious practices) AND to direct their school boards towards parent-approved teaching and manage practices through the democratic votes in elections and free access and speech before school board meetings.
7. The Party must clearly state that Government has no role, whatsoever, in determining what is "religious speech" or in limiting the Constitutional right to the "free exercise of religion" NOR in punishing such free religious speech as evaluating named persons in terms of their policies and morality by taking away the tax-exempt status commonly given religions bodies.
8. The Party must heatedly and effectively oppose any "fairness doctrine" as it uses government authority in opposition to the free market will of the People in selecting which radio/TV programs are listed-to/viewed. The Party must equally oppose any imposition of a "local content" rule which would limit the free exchange of constitutionally free speech across this ONE nation.
9. NO future general election, involving Federal officials, must be allowed to go forward until such arrangements (By mail or secure electronic means) is had to offer timely voter registration to all members of the Armed Forces or Coast Guard serving anywhere in the world (Including on and under the seas). Certainly, no mailed in ballots should be allowed to have any information noting a military source OR, as was the case in Florida this year, Party affiliation.

It may be necessary to make one or more Members of the Congress as "horrid examples" by excommunicating them from Party support and removing them from all committees. Only an orderly and ordered Party has any possible chance of defeating "those other people".

Solving Guantanamo Prisoner Problem

There are many solutions as to disposing of those murderers and other terrorists held at the USA's Guantanamo military prison without the USA turning them over to governments who might "abuse" them or deal with them under Islamic Law.. Here are a few of them.
1. Push them over the border with Cuba proper and allow Fidel and his gentle crew to provide homes and jobs for them. (I do wonder how long it would then take for the Cuban People to shout A LA PARAD! as to those critters and Cuban officials who allowed them to stay there.)
2. Select the individual Europeans (Especially politicians and editors) who have so often and so violently criticized us for holding those "poor lambs" in custody at "Gitmo" and have each of them take one into their homes [After posting bond via Lloyds Of London in the sum of $1M that such "guests" will remain in their nations for a minimum of ten-years].. Such hosts would be well advised to not allow their guests ready access to sharp things, their wives-and-children and certain, common, household chemicals.
3. Transport small groups of them 20.1 miles off the shore of that base, transfer them to sail-equiped self-bailing whale-boats, give them a compass and GPS devise and directions to their homelands, 30-days of supplies and water, a Koran, fishing gear AND let them fend for themselves. (To be compassionate, avoidance of hurricane months and mixing Shia and Sunni prisoners is suggested.)

Real Pirates, Suppression, Law & Islam

The recent and very real reports of large-scale piracy near the criminal state of Somalia should be a clear signal for politicians, "statesmen", lawyers and jurists, insurers, diplomats and the military of all civilized nations to review the history of piracy and the support given it by some nations ruled by Muslims.

The early history of the USA provided a demonstration that paying off the Muslim pirates of North Africa with bribes and ransoms did not stop, but only encouraged, more piracy and other crimes (eg rape, enslavement and murder) on the high-seas. In those days of greater moral courage and rational, "politically incorrect", decision making, such pirates were dealt with by summarily destroying their ships, bombarding their bases-of-operation and hanging (After a very, very, summary "trial") individual pirates.

I see no reasons why the same summary and effective means should not be applied to the pirates of East Africa. After all, pirates are the "enemies of all humanity" as well established in international law which allows and encourages all real nations to attack and destroy them.

It should be specially noted that the "government" of Somalia declared that it is wrong for those pirates to attack the ships of Muslim nations (Implying that attacking the ships of other nations, including our and that of our allies, is "OK"). This is consistent with the laws and customs of Islam and naval forces from Islamic nations should not be allowed to interfere with the suppression of piracy anywhere---Or, be destroyed as accessories to piracy.

http://rhymeswithright.mu.nu/archives/098950.php----For Note Below

TO UNDERSTAND THE POTENTIAL OF DEFINING TERRORISM as a species of piracy, consider the words of the 16th-century jpan>pan>urist Alberico Gentili's De jure belli: "Pirates are common enemies, and they are attacked with impunity by all, because they are without the pale of the law. They are scorners of the law of nations; hence they find no protection in that law." Gentili, and many people who came after him, recognized piracy as a threat, not merely to the state but to the idea of statehood itself. All states were equally obligated to stamp out this menace, whether or not they had been a victim of piracy. This was codified explicitly in the 1856 Declaration of Paris, and it has been reiterated as a guiding principle of piracy law ever since.

Nebraska Elects Regent; Why Not Wisconsin

My son-in-law travels on-the-job and brings me out-of-state newspapers among which was a Nebraska paper noting the partisan contest for a seat on the University of Nebraska's Board-of-Regents. Although the candidates agreed on some subject (Some of which I found bad ideas) they did differ on embryonic stem cell research (Which as, unlike the other cell researches, has failed to provide safe and effect treatments) and the cost-benefits to giving illegal aliens resident tuition.

I do not care which person won. What I find important is that the People were able to directly chose those officials by a direct vote rather than having some, too often compromised, Governor appoint them on a basis of political contributions or influence.

We already have equal-population districts for the election of Members of the Congress which could be used for the election of Regents. If we were wise enough to adopt such a system, we should require such Regents to NOT have any financial dealings with UW or the companies it has spun off OR those it chooses as suppliers or contractors.

Resigning Judges, Lawyers &Money

So---Milwaukee Co. Judges Michael Brennan and John Franke are violating the trust given to them by the Voters who elected them and expected them to serve out their terms-of-office. As usual for too many attorneys money comes well ahead of ethics in how they make decisions. For myself, I can do without these super-attorneys as judges, preferring those who are more honest and loyal to the People and, I hope, to the Law as written by the authors of our Constitutions and our statutes.

I certainly encourage my fellow citizens, who might sit on juries for trials in which those two most dishonest men take part, to heavily discount their statements as they are not reliable witnesses to the Law.

Of course, we could make the private practice of law less lucrative and busy (As less attractive to judges who appear to be dissatisfied with the money and security they have) by following Alaska's (Pre-Palin!) example and make the losers in civil cases pay the costs and "reasonable attorney's fees" (eg Less than $200/hour) of the winners. Alternative conflict methods could be used, with educated lay arbitrators and special masters (Experts in the field of conflict) making decisions without the loser-pay-all condition set above.

I do suspect that the State Attorney's Union (alias The Bar and the Trial Attorney's group) having invested so much money in buying or leasing the Governor and too many in the Legislature, would effectively resist these proposals.

Of course, some (eg Shakespeare) have proposed the "First, we kill all the lawyers" solution. However, it might be better to enact a State Constitutional Amendment to the effect that,, after the year 2014, no attorneys may serve in the Legislature. After all, lawyers control the courts and are well on the way to do the same for the Executive Branch. One part of our government should be free of those who create too complex laws for the benefit of Lawyers and not the People.

You might ask yourself: What do attorneys produce that I can eat or drink or use in my daily life; And, Is the success of such nations as China, India and Japan due to their very few numbers of lawyers?

Short History Of Gun Control In This Nation

The attempts of the superior British Military to seize weapons and ammunition from free citizens began our Revolutionary War at Lexington and Concord in 1775. The American militia captain shouted, before the shooting started, "Don't fire unless fired upon. But if they want a war, let it start here!".

A short time latter, in historical terms, the offending government had no authority in this land and those who sided with it lost their wealth, possessions and citizenship.

Of course, the nature of war has changed from those long-ago days of open formations firing volleys at the enemy's likewise formally arrayed troops. In those days there was no effort to "take out" the opponent's non-military leaders, a tactic which has become more common in today's irregular warfare.

Members of our legislative bodies, heads of our executive governments and our judges should all consider the above history lesson. Perhaps,publishers, editors, academics and other leaders should also consider them.

A Short Presidential History Lesson

The election of Democrats W. Wilson, F. D. Roosevelt and J. Kennedy were all followed by periods of war with very large numbers of US dead and maimed.

Adolf Hitler was elected by a popular vote based on the support of those who hated Jews, feared further economic problems, thought socialistic actions were a solution and wanted change.

A. Lincoln was swept into a second term in large part by the enabling of the voting of active duty members of our armed forces. Republicans would do well to plan and act to insure that vote in the next election as the lack of some of those votes may have contributed to the Republican's 2008 loses.

"Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it".

NOT "Civilian" Casualties

Many of the news articles and reports regarding the various acts of war in the Middle East refer to "civilian casualties" allegedly inflicted by the armed forces of the USA or its allies. These conflicts have gangs of out-of-uniform, heavily armed men, belonging to no recognized government (Who are NOT protected by the Geneva Conventions) who go about murdering any man, woman or child who opposes their fanatic views and their interpretation of the basic teachings of Islam as might support their actions.

It appears that these fanatics are welcomed and sheltered (Or, at the least, not resisted) by many in their zones-of-operation---In urban neighborhoods and rural villages alike. That makes those local "civilians" co-actors in the terrorist campaigns waged in and about them. It also makes them liable for death or great bodily injury when organized military forces attack the terrorists sheltered among and often aided by them. They are NOT "civilian casualties"!

If children are killed or injured in such conflicts, it is because their parents welcomed (Or, allowed) irregular combatants into their homes, villages and neighborhoods. Such children's parents are co-actors in their deaths.

Obama As Welfare Leech

One of the facts of our "brave new world" has been the abuse of social welfare programs by those who appear all too ready to take rather than contribute to their families and our communities. Too many "love them and leave them" unwed fathers, their partners who dribble children among their relatives and community agencies and those who rush to file false claims for such programs as flood relief have become entrenched, as perpetual parasites, in our cities, counties, states and nation.

We might look at the career of Sen. Obama as that which has produced nothing of value for our economy and which appears to be a series of self-poofing-up political moves, upward and onwards towards his present goal---Which is beyond his service, experience and sacrifice "pay grade". Mr. Obama has, in fact, been both an advocate of more welfare programs and a direct recipient of welfare benefits. I suggest that he be informed, by the voters, to get a real job and contrubute something beyond slick-speech and vote buying promises to the People.

Of Generals & Colin Powell

All generals (And admirals) must, to achieve that rank, combine three qualities in some and varying mixtures. Those qualities are: Fighting spirit and skills; Administrative skills, of which the most important is logistics; And, people or political skills in dealing with personnel matters and with the politicians-in-power.

However, some do excel in one or two of these qualities, demonstrating full competence and overriding excellence in all three being all but unknown. It should also be noted that an unbalanced excellence in only one leads to the danger of an unbalance in overall military abilities and performance. Below you will find some examples of balanced and unbalanced military leaders and mis-leaders.

Patton was the most recent example of a specially "fighting general" who, along "Vinegar Joe" Stillwell, led troops without much regard for administrative or political niceties. Such political and administrative support as allowed them to do such was provided by others who often had to "protect them" from logistic and political mistakes. Other generals who had the same general, general, characteristics include George Washington (Who certainly had political problems with the Continental Congress) and William T. Sherman who cared little for politicians and was protected by U. S. Grant.

The best, if not most famous, of our "administrative" generals was George Marshall who is known as the "Organizer Of The Allied Victory In World War-II" and was a quiet, totally logical, master of the military arts and a gentleman well beyond anything which could be proclaimed or established by an Act Of Congress. His skills and success in this area were so great as to put him beyond any doubts as of political support-or-opposition or combat courage or experience.

The most noticeable "political generals" were George B. McClellan (Who seemed incapable of fighting any decisive battles, except that of maintaining political support) Douglas MacArthur (Who was strangely given honors after his disastrous leadership in the Philippines at the beginning of WW-2 and whose alleged success in the Pacific campaigns of that war were in spite of his acts and were really based on the acts of the US Navy's leaders) AND General Colin Powell who, after a credible beginning as a very junior combat officer, dived into military politics and had an often criticized performance with no real record of those services which "made a difference" as to the defense of this nation.

General MacArthur's conflict with President Harry S. Truman and resistance to civilian and constitutional authority caused his downfall and "fading away" as a force in the politics of this nation in spite of some Obama-like worship by some media and politicians.

It now appears that (Thankfully retired) Gen. Powell is again attempting to manipulate the political system of the USA by his endorsement of Sen. Obama. To my mind I cannot discern if that endorsement is based on conviction, race (Racist) motives or, perhaps the most likely, on some effort to either push forward his income from book publications OR, even, some high (Cabinet level?) post in an Obama administration. The USA needs him only slightly more that the even more self-serving and even more artificial Barak Hussein. Obama.

Generals U. S. Grant and Dwight Eisenhower appear to be the most balanced of this nation's generals.

NRA Erred In Endorsement

As a NRA member and Wisconsin citizen I oppose the NRA's endorsement of Representative Steve Kagen for reelection to the House Of Representatives.

Although John Gard, Mr. Kagen's opponent and ex-congressman, also shares a 100% NRA rating, we should consider that Mr. Kagen is supported by the teacher's union, which has bought or leased Wisconsin's Governor Jim Doyle, a fierce opponent of citizens' rights to keep and bear arms. Mr. Doyle has twice vetoed passed bills authorizing licenses for CCW in Wisconsin in forms consistent with that State's Constitution (Although I have concluded that no licensing is really required here because of the wording of that document).

Mr. Kagen is supported by that Governor AND belongs to the Democrat Party, most of whose power-brokers and presidential candidate have clearly demonstrated hate of the Second Amendment.

USCCB Errors On Faithful Citizenship

In my parish bulletin this week was a copy of the document "The Challenge of Forming Consciences for Faithful Citizenship". In large part it is well formed; But, contains fatal or near-fatal errors as to history, scripture, logic and development---Especially as to too many bishop's failure to demonstrate courage in maintaining sound principles and instruction as outlined below.

LACK OF COURAGE: If the bishops (And other clergy) were truly supporting the rights of the Church to speak out on moral issues as to elections and candidates, they should directly indicate that supporting any Party or voting for any candidate which supports abortion-upon-demand, partial birth abortions, the unnecessary killing of embryos for "research" (A process which has NOT yielded medical treatment of value) and euthanasia have self-excommunicated themselves. Any such offending Party and candidates should and must be identified by name-From the pulpit and in Church newspapers.

THE DEATH PENALTY: Opposition to the death penalty is NOT based on the scriptures or Natural Law. In fact, St. Paul approved of the State's use of the sword to enforce civil laws AND the Church itself, when it ruled the Vatican States, applied the death penalty (Sometimes by beating the offender to death) against murderers, rapists and other such creatures as a mode of defending the People of God against such offenders.
Such offenders voluntarily give up any "rights to life" with which they were born and subject themselves to the death penalty after due process legal proceedings and acts of self-defense (Please see below) by threatened victims.
The choice of what penalties to inflict on such offenders (Including, for example, rapists and traitors) is something which "belongs to Caesar", now being the People in democratic nations.)

JUST WARS: The bishops failed to define what is a "just war". Such wars are well known in our histories; Among which are the Crusades which opposed the banditry, genocide, rape, retail murder and theft of nations and peoples by the followers of that False Prophet Mohammed, drove those criminals out of Iberia, Sicily, the Balkans, Greece AND stopped their campaigns of terror and crime at such places as the Polish-Lithuania Commonwealth, Tours, Lepanto and, on a much better "9/11" the Gates-Of-Vienna.. I might add the Civil War in the USA which led to the abolition of slavery and, of course, the "Crusade In Europe" against the Nazis. The removal of the genocidal leader of Iraq was also a matter of justice.

SELF DEFENSE: The bishops have again failed to note, declare and maintain the Natural Right to self-defense against criminal acts which threaten innocent life or even the means to maintain bodily integrity (eg Against rapists) or the means to life (eg Against those who use force to rob the earnings of honest workers).
More exactly, those bishops have failed to support the rights of the innocent to the means to enforce such protections against criminal attacks by instant-and-effective actions of the State OR access to such weapons as will allow them to do so themselves.
It does the Church little credit to, for example, send food and medical supplies to the Darfur region of the Sudan when the State supported Jihadi murder, rape and abuse those there so they cannot benefit from such gifts.

CORRECTIONS NEEDED: The USCBB should and must correct its various errors in this matter and that at the soonest date.

Lessons From History-Obama & Hitler

Some little time ago I watched Sen. Obama speaking, between band sets, to worshiping German crowds. Strangely enough, I had just viewed a DVD as to Hitler doing the same.

Earlier on that same DVD were shots of Hitler's Brown-Shirts going about and intimidating their fellow citizens and some shots of such thugs using force and the threat-of-force against opponents of the Nazi Party. It now appears that Obama's "Truth Squads", including police, are working up to the same level of arrogant intimidation in such places as Eastern Missouri, Chicago and else-wheres. The only yet missing pieces are uniforms, straight armed salutes (Obama's youth workers have their own, folded arm, signsalute) and direct physical assaults.

Perhaps the "Fruit Of Islam" (The uniformed enforcers for the Nation Of Islam), whose uniforms do remind many of the SA, will fill in the picture in days-to-come. Certainly the leader of the Nation Of Islam, who has declared Sen. Obama the Messiah, is as anti-Jew as Hitler and his worshipful mob of followers.

Can we expect that an Obama Reich will yield gross limits on freedom of speech (Perhaps through some perverted "Fairness Doctrine"), giving Islam a upper seat in our nation (Think of the California pupils recently required to practice Muslim rituals in their classrooms), confiscation of firearms from all but the police, and military (Under Obama's control and who would not enforce such laws against Party Members) and other measures destructive of democracy.

I still am amazed that any Jew would vote for any member of Obama's Party now---When they still have a choice. Are such Jewish Obama supporters ready to again wear yellow stars? Perhaps they hope to be "helpers" (Who aided in Pogroms and in the Death Camps) under the new rule.

Are all ready to repeat history for want of learning from and acting upon its lessons?

Sen. Obama, Associations & Criminology

Some Social-Psychologists and Criminologists have posited that people self-select their companions and associates who do NOT train or indoctrinate them; But, rather, reinforce their pre-set tendencies. It is also posited that this begins at a very early age (About seven years old) and continues through life.

Therefore (Assuming this is true) children with positive values as to education, athletics, honesty will group together with like-minded persons who give positive responses to such behaviors and ideas. Likewise, those who tend towards criminality, disobedience, destruction of property, lying and similar tendencies will join one another for such emotional or mental or physical rewards as such associations bring to the end that their acts and thoughts are "reinforced".

However, it is not only children who drift towards such mutual-admiration and negative groups. Consider the tendency of "needle sharing" drug addicts, non-monogamous and adult-onset homosexuals, anti-democracy group terrorists (So common at too many of our universities) and such like enemies of humane humanness.

How then does this apply to Senator Obama? He did not, of course, have a choice in his enrollment in a Koran school in Indonesia. Yet, his statement as to supporting Muslims if the political winds blow badly and his willingness to sit down, without ground rules, with the leaders of terrorist and Mad-Mullah ruled Iran do lead me to wonder about the effect of his early years' orientation.

As an adult, he did have close associations with persons (And organizations) which preached and practiced racism (His wife and the Black Muslims), terrorism (Mr. Ayres and other traitors), vote-fixing groups (Acorn and the Chicago political machine) and other like persons and groups.

Senator Obama may or may not have been "formed" by such associations. However, he does seem to have drifted towards those who would reinforce-by-approval his actions AND whose thoughts and actions he would and did approve by ongoing associations. Such movement is not, as such, abnormal; But, the end results can be harmful to society and the self.

Too many in the media continue to pound the drum of those who project that a candidate's formative associations are not important. At the least, they should point out that some scientists hold that is NOT the case AND that just "knowing people" who are dysfunctional (As I did as a Probation & Parole Agent and prison Social Worker) is NOT the same as the types of self-justifying relationships described above and as, perhaps, led to the "real Senator Obama" .

Association is not evidence of any guilt; BUT, can be (Is?) evidence of basic character.
