The "black flag of jihad" as used by...

The “black flag of jihad” as used by various Islamic terrorist organizations (since the late 1990s) (Photo credit: Wikipedia)

Our tolerant muslim friends tell us (when not engaged in dropping walls on homosexuals, or gang raping Western journalists), that Islam is the religion of peace,  that allah is a god of mercy and compassion, and muhammed was the greatest prophet.  I respectfully disagree, these are lies.

Islam is the greatest force of evil alive on the planet today.  It is the religion of the satanically controlled, and it is evident to everyone with eyes to see and ears to hear.

Of all the world religions, which ones advocate in scripture the taking of slaves, the oppression of women, and the murder of those who believe differently?  Take your time, but there’s only one.  islam.

Which religion of the world states that suicide is a good thing?

Which religion’s followers have a penchant for blowing up airplanes, themselves, and cowardly roadside IED’s because their god wants them to? (Which deity comes to mind when you imagine a being that approves of these actions?  The one I think of has horns.)

Which religion really likes beheadings on Youtube?

Which religion encourages fathers to kill their children if they are not pious enough?

Which religious adherents, while wearing blue jeans, and talking on their cell phones, loudly proclaim Israel and the United States (the two most powerful forces for world peace and prosperity in all of history) as the Lesser and Greater Satan?

In case any of these questions stumped you, the answer to all of them is islam.

Luckily though, our islamic friends are peaceful and tolerant.  Remember you don’t have to be beheaded or enslaved, you could always convert…

Islam the religion of pieces peace.

Some interesting articles from those who think Islam might not be a peaceful philosophy are listed below.

There is diplomatic hanky panky going on right now between the United States and Saudi Arabia.

Read the articles below from TheBlaze.com:

http://www.theblaze.com/stories/2013/04/18/report-saudi-national-ruled-out-as-suspect-in-boston-marathon-bombings-to-be-deported-on-national-security-grounds-next-week/

Something is wrong with the story in Boston.  After yesterday’s media meltdown over the lack of white perpetrators it has become painfully obvious that the MSM is doing there best to massage any news in the president’s favor.  I am afraid that the poitical atmosphere in this country is working against the efforts to find and capture the culprit(s).  Thank you Democrats.

Interestingly enough, Obama met with the Saudi Arabia foreign minister in an unscheduled meeting yesterday, ducking in on John Kerry and the ambassador for a quick photo op and then turning the open door meeting into a closed door meeting.  That’s weird.

From Yahoonews.com

http://ca.news.yahoo.com/obama-meets-saudi-foreign-minister-discusses-syria-223009934.html

The same Saudi “person of interest” that was being held at a hospital in Boston is being deported on “National Security Grounds”, and “terrorist activity”, as soon as today.  UPDATE!!! ( 8:34PM 2.18.13) http://www.theblaze.com/stories/2013/04/18/ice-official-responds-to-blaze-report-categorically-false/

“According to terrorism expert Steve Emerson, 20-year-old Abdul Rahman Ali Alharbi, the Saudi national first suspected of being involved in Monday’s twin bomb attack, is being hastily deported.” (quoted from Infowars).  This same individual is reported as to having several family members in Al-Qaeda…. … …. … Excuse me, what?

From Infowars.comhttp://www.infowars.com/obama-covering-up-saudi-link-to-boston-bombing/

Abdul Rahman has the same name as Abdulrahman al-Awlaki, the 16 year old killed by drone strike in August, and also the same name as one of the original bombers of the world trade center in 1993.  I don’t believe in coincidences.

Death by a Thousand Cuts (book)

Death by a Thousand Cuts (book) (Photo credit: Wikipedia)

After evaluating what information I could about the Boston Marathon Bombing, and hearing about the spate of Ricin laced letters that have been mailed to a US Senator and the President, my mind went back to an article from World Net Daily.  The article quoted a  senior Iranian Revolutionary Guard commander who warned Europe and the United States that al-Qaida operatives would be striking soon.

http://www.wnd.com/2013/02/u-s-warned-al-qaida-hit-squads-coming/

Senator Wicker has been outspoken about stopping Iran’s nuclear program and strengthening sanctions against Iran and members of the Revolutionary Guard.

I am wondering if we are entering a phase of a death by a thousand cuts. Smaller more frequent, harder to investigate, acts of terror.  It has been stated that even the largest dog could be driven mad by a flea.  Pray for our leaders, and our servicemen and women.

North Korea and weapons of mass destruction

North Korea and weapons of mass destruction (Photo credit: Wikipedia)

The escalation between North Korea and the United States continues to escalate.  The Herald Sun is reporting that American and South Korean troops are at Watchcon2 (apparently their highest level of readiness), and that North Korean missiles have seen in the upright position, indicating readiness for launch.

See the story here: http://www.heraldsun.com.au/news/world/united-states-and-south-korean-armed-forces-placed-at-vital-alert-watchcon-2/story-fnd134gw-1226617936354

Does anyone else get the feeling that we are being played?  All communication channels are purportedly cut, yet we seem to have more knowledge of what is going on inside of North Korea now than ever.  China has been making waves over the Senkaku island chain, which is a completely worthless piece of real estate.  The only reason I can think of for this increased aggression towards Japan is that it is truly a quiet reminder to the United States as to who is paying the bills around here.  Add to that, Iran’s recent diplomatic alliance with North Korea, culminating in their vow to attack American forces if we engage with North Korea and you see the ghost outlines of a plan coming together.  With the formation of the BRICS bank, the many pipeline deals with Iran and Russia, and Iran and China, and the increasingly quick move from the dollar as the international trading currency for oil, we are seeing the rise of of a truly centralized government form of globalism with China and or Russia at the helm.  This is the signalling of political polar swing that is either imminent or has already occurred.

(an article from the CFR is below entitled “Ten Questions for the New BRICS Bank” that is very informative)

http://www.cfr.org/business-and-foreign-policy/ten-questions-new-brics-bank/p30421

We may be watching a different form of standoff than we all think right now.  This could be the communists claiming control over the United Nations.  They have always been mutual bedfellows, each thinking they would emerge victorious (take note those on the Left using Palestine as a soapbox), and now we may be watching that struggle for ascendancy.

I hope you like borscht and rice.

Betrayed in Benghazi

Below is a link to an open letter from 700 Special Forces Military Members to the House requesting the formation of a special investigative committee to ascertain what took place on September 11 2011 in Benghazi.  Please take the time to visit and read this letter.  Our troops deserve whatever protection we can afford them, and if the only thing we can do is click on links on the internet and write emails to our congresspeople then by God we should be doing it.

The Gateway Pundit has an article (above), but don’t worry about Israel or the Christians being persecuted in Egypt because the shipping documents on the gas said that the items were to be used by the Egyptian Government and not to be sold to 3rd parties.    (*cough* Benghazi *cough*)

education

education (Photo credit: Sean MacEntee)

This article will be updated and reposted as I gather information.  This topic is gaining traction in all 50 states because at its core it seeks to divide the parent from the child in all things educational.  It is a federal/global guideline established without oversight and being implented without parental discretion, while at the same time they change the FERPA laws to diminish child privacy rights and seek to monitor every aspect of our children in order to “help them” find their place in society.

http://www.corestandards.org/the-standards From the Common Core State Standards Initiative, this is a link to proposed new standards.

Common Core Curriculum is a new set of learning standards for kindergarten through high school that have been implemented with alarming speed and without proper oversight, and testing.  It is Federal in scope, and all 50 states will be using the same set of standards.

The Wikkipedia entry is linked here.

As I research I find myself more and more confounded.  What is the proper approach to education?  I have very little formal education myself, so I have no basis to argue statistics and studies which can be manipulated any which way.  I must rely on common sense, as I try and teach myself some of the history of the philosophy of education.  I keep coming back to the name John Dewey, and how he was pivotal in the formation of our modern education system.

From CBS New York: Cicadas set to invade the tri-state area for month long stay on April 3, 2013.  A 17 year cycle is culminating this year, with scientists expecting up to a billion cicadas per square mile.  That’s a lot of cicadas.  I have to admit, my first thought upon reading this was about insects just now hearing about the occupy wall street movement, but I dismissed it after reading an article an About.com, read it here.

This is great to hear.  This 15 year old girl absolutely hits it out of the park on gun control legislation.  I dare you to do as well as she.  (I know I sure can’t)

 

 

 

In other news, the UN votes in some big gun control thingy, but I know that’s no big deal…right?
