there be monsters beyond

people are all abuzz with the latest video release from obl.  it's important to note that this is a potentially important video.  for one, there is no change in the stance of islamists.  and i don't say "radical islamists" because that is a misnomer.  all practicing muslims are potentially "radical islamists" simply because islamic law compels them to be.

islamic law requires the muslim to invite you to recognize the supremacy of islam by converting.  if you refuse, you may be invited to become a dhimmi (sort of a second class citizen paying duty to the muslims for allowing you to be there) and if you refuse that then the muslim is to go to war with you (Sahih Muslim 4294).

they are biding their time, but they are not doing so with out endeavoring to further their cause.  the employment suits listed on tantor's site are just a small piece of it. 

consider the prosecution, in new york of the pace university student who flushed a koran.  while i am not defending this young man as having done a worthy thing, this young man thought he was exercising his first amendment rights - albeit with someone else's property.  i imagine he was surprised to find that it is free speech if you desecrate a christian icon or jewish icon, but if you desecrate a like islamic icon it is a hate crime.

with each finding of sensitivity towards the islamic demands, we are giving away a greater piece of who we are as a country, as a people.  when the washington post declines to print "comics" deemed offensive to muslims, but harbors no such reserve towards christians or jews, the press is agreeing to forfeit some of its freedoms.

we non-muslims must stand up and say "enough!"  until we stop worrying about the sensitivities of islamists as more important than our own culture, beliefs, indeed our very country, we will continue to cede our freedoms to "them".

our society is secular, true.  our law is based on the belief that the government cannot tell us where to go to church or how to worship.  this is in direct opposition to the laws of islam which is a political and social system all rolled into one with a religious faith.  we cannot even marginally embrace this without completely altering the nature of our society and indeed that of all western society as well.

with each compassionate nod to islam here in the united states our "ness" is eroding away.  compare the freedoms of woman under our laws versus that under sharia law.  can you imagine your mothers, your sisters, your wives, your daughters being subjugated in this manner?  because make no mistake, they will not change their views to be more open in that regard.  the religion of muhammed has changed very little since the dawn of time and that is a point on which islamists are very proud.

robert spence examines a great deal of this in his book Religion of Peace? Why Christianity is and Islam Isn't but it's getting precious little notice anywhere as so many are afraid to remark on islam in a non-pc manner.  this reticence is promoting the fallacy that "they" don't like us because we're capitalists.  or we're arrogant.  or we're "intolerant".  or whatever other name is placed on "us" by the msm - both here at home and in much of the world.  they don't like us because we don't follow sharia law.  they don't like us because we are not an islamic nation.

i know this all sounds like the lunatic ramblings of some ditsy blond, but consider these things.  obl predicted on a number of occasions that the u.s. would start a fight with al qaeda, but that we were nothing more than a paper tiger and we'd be unlikely to finish it.  meaning that all the islamists need to do is bide their time and we'd eventually quit and they would win.  consider also that in europe the only group producing at a growth rate is muslims - if they wait long enough they'll "win" europe by default: they'll be the only ones left standing.

but seriously folks.  we are in a war for our very survival - here and in the west as a whole.  but most of the democrat caucus, indeed much of the socialist world, doesn't have a clue.  this is one we must win.

and make no mistake.  if we in any way indicate that we are not there to finish the task in iraq, or afghanistan (or iran if it comes to it) the monsters that are beyond will be here.  the edge of the map will be redrawn to the united states.  and we will be hard pressed to recover.

Muslims get special treatment my friend. There's no getting around it, it's true.

The Empire State Building going green turns me read. I hope some electrician crosses some wires or something to ruin it.
