Bolton to Set to Fire Dozens of Obama Holdovers at the White House

Where do you live?

Thanks for the response. You addressed many pertinent issues. It is unfortunate, but a majority of Middle Eastern Christians aren’t much different from the Muslims. They embrace the same worldview which is strange when you consider the Muslim’s treatment of Christians throughout the Muslim world. I’ve posted these links before, but in case you haven’t seen them, they’re worth reading (especially since you mentioned Greek Christian):

caliroxanne: Thanks again since I do not comment or read Breitbart very often and it’s usually when someone links to an article I think is good or accurate. (Another problem with people paying more attention to the website rather than the content and original source.)

The Melkite Greek Catholic Jihad Watch article is stupefying in their acceptance of dhimmitude-lite. For Patriarch Gregory III Laham to “We love you” and then proceed to mention how the Palestinian Muslims don’t love *them*, is bizarre. On top of that is this sentence:

He added, “And when they are asked from whom they received [the aid], they say: We got it from some kuffar [infidel].”

The author hardly didn’t touch upon what “kuffar” means, and it’s Qur’an supported in verse 9:28. “Kuffar” isn’t a Qur’anic word, but the Muslims’ word for “those who don’t believe in the truth,” ritually impure or unclean people to be subjugated, enslaved or parasitized. Mohsin Khan’s translation relates the word “Najasun” for such people which means impure (literally, “buried under dirt” like a seed.) I’ve had a Muslim tell me it means “to cover,” yeah, as in with dirt. Uhh, by Q 9:28 I think we get the point. This is the biggest religious insult beyond “infidel” which just means disbeliever. (I’m sure you know this.) Does he say this? Does he say it’s Qur’anic based? Geesh. Is it that they aren’t fond of Jews? They don’t want to move such as Egyptian Coptics say because they were there before Muslims, and they say to move would be like rewarding them and defeat. But in other countries, Greeks in Uzbeckistan, Zoroastrians in Iran back in the 60s, they moved once the Muslims did their hijra migration and as they grew, started harassing them. Laham should be more vehement. Scared?

The Greek Orthodox in Greece aren’t this stupid. It was only in the 2000s that a mosque was built there much to the ire of Greeks. After all, the Ottomans had built a mosque right smack next to the Parthenon. (In photos it looked so ridiculous.) Since, they also don’t recognize the Pope, it must be further nuts to have seen the Pope kiss a Qur’an. Likewise, in England you have dhimmi churches removing their crosses at the top of the steeples, not putting up a Christmas tree in town because of the Muslims’ feelings, and the supremacist Muslims not even saying, “No, that’s OK, this is your culture, we are tolerant.” Do you hear Muslims saying anything about their supremacist imposition on western or any countries’ culture and holidays? Of course not, because since Muslims are obligated to do jihad in any possible way, their silence and supporting others doing it, suffices these days. Muslim organizations who *don’t* say, “Oh, no reason to take down your cross” are wretched. Even some Muslim girls attending a Catholic school in the US complained about pictures of Jesus, etc. when they don’t have to go to a Catholic school. Wretched intolerance.

This is probably more an extension of The Euro-Arab Dialogue and the Birth of Arabia” that Bat Ye’or translated from French. What it says has materialized. Since the 70s, especially, this European Commission Arabization plan has infected everyone and it’s anti-Israel and they complained about the US being pro-Israel. It appears that this Arabization infection is in the US too, and it’s ALL politicians’ fault for perpetuating it-Republicans, Democrats, and those from universities to landholders that take money and greed. Why US politicians don’t navigate oil business with a “We’ll do business with you but you have no say about what goes on in our country as we don’t with yours” aside from distance noting (human rights). Clearly, the Republicans’ reticence is complicity. The top universities just look like hypocrites, easily bought, and dhimmis. Islamic law hardly goes with American style women’s rights and laws. It’s not like Yale or Harvard needs money. I think Fox News has also lightened up on the Islam/Arab criticism from before-Prince Waleed has investments in Fox.

So, the Chile article on American Thinker was interesting. (AT also had an accurate Arab-Muslim history article.) I don’t like politics mixed with sports-we pay good money for entertainment for 2 hours, and this is really bad. I didn’t know about the Scottish teams even harassing Jewish fans. Deplorable behavior! Chile has a Jewish team, I see, it’s nowhere close to the scale of the pro-Palestinian groups. These immigrants are way too attached to heritage lands, another thing promoted in the Euro-Arab Dialogue. My grandparents weren’t like this, nor Italians, etc. They’d read news, but weren’t out there protesting-they were very happy to become Americans and prospered. Turks in Europe do this too even when it’s just regarding some voting going on in Turkey and they’ve gotten into street brawls with Kurds in Germany, etc. Of course, this causes more division in what should be a melting pot country. Per Jihad Watch article, in France a man was charged for writing a sentence regarding anti-Semiticism. That’s crazy, it was a harmless sentence. These Leftists groups shouting down speakers are pathetic as much as mainstream papers not giving voice to ex-Muslims, dissidents, or anti-Islam views because Islam is political, ideological, a “whole system.”

That article/information regarding Latin America should be passed around. The largest Muslim population in South America is in, you guessed it, Argentina, which is heavily Spanish immigrants. Per 1975 stats on literacy I have in an old book, all the Western countries were then over 90% and it says Argentina at that time had 100% literacy. Without a doubt, literacy rates will go down in Europe once residents are figured into that. (Also, what determines literacy is basically being able to write at a 2nd grade level, not read a newspaper.)

Some of the Christian organizations here get refugee money and they’re in every state. All this Christian-Muslim “outreach” is such nonsense. Besides Islam getting some type of Affirmative Action Religion treatment, much to the disgust of all other US religions, what is the “outreach” really needed for? Just practice your fkin religion, already! One church, somewhere out west, had Muslims praying in it and it was set up by CAIR. Wtf is the point? Do these Christians know that Islam slanders and blasphemizes Christianity? Do they know Islam’s goal is to wipe out all religions as supported by Ibn Kathir’s Hadith? Do they know they make Jesus a Muslim and warrior in helping to genocide the Jews? Jesus was Jewish! Some Jews way back then became Christians who lived there before the so-called Roman named Palestinians.

People are getting Islamonausea, and I think that includes a bunch of the cowardly liberals. How many articles do you need to read with hijab-wearing Muslim women on “Muslim Women Day”? There’s an Iranian Zoroastrian community in California. How about “Zoroastrian Women Day”? Nowruz is a Zoroastrian created holiday. Hindus are another minority as well as Buddhists, a bunch of Caribbean related religions, Jehovah Witnesses, etc.

I’m ranting, quietly, but I find this all utterly disgusting. The Left’s desire to bash Christian white male men, especially, is so pathetic, especially when Muslim men are like Christian Fundamentalists and Evangelicals on steroids. It is like the Leftists in Iran in the 1970s who were so intent on ridding the monarchy and thinking Ayatollah Khomeini would be some socialist savior to help the poor, etc. that they actually voted for a theocrat. The British-CIA ousted Mossadegh was a secularist and would have continued the Shah’s secularism and instituted American ideas such as Social Security, etc. The Ayatollah lied by omission by not telling them he would make it an Islamic state. The other clerics knew this because they had read his books and supported that. Just like Muslim organizations today who constantly lie by omission about the Qur’an and Islamic history and lie about their plans (though the Muslim Brotherhood, Hizb-ut-Tahrir are very clear about their goals), that’s what the Ayatollah did, and it worked…along with killing thousands of Iranians opposed to him and Leftists who woke up too late, and when they resisted they were killed or imprisoned.

Stupid is as stupid does. I think the Islamist groups , especially in Europe, are feeling pretty confident with the ease of westerners bending over them and not *too* worried about anti-Islam people, but more to chock up another “win” when, say, a country bans Pamela Geller or such people, as England has done. England has become deplorable with its anti-free speech. The EU’s, UN’s goals are heinous. American politicians better think long and hard about how they are selling out America. I have a great dhimmitude quote by an India Indian about what effects dhimmitude has on people. “Malaise” is an understatement but part of what dampens progress and human capital in all areas.

Your handle name applies. When I was young I asked my father why Greece didn’t continue on with its remarkable Hellenistic period accomplishments and progress. He said a big part of it was 400 years of Ottoman rule and that is kept them down and suppressed them. As he said that, he was pressing his hand in a downwards motion. In four words you said it!

I have a quote from Andrew Bostoms “The Legacy of Jihad, Islamic Holy War and the Fate of Non-Muslims.” It was written by historian Sir Jadunath Sarkar in Mughal, India. I’m sure I don’t have to tell you what the Arab-Muslims did to India, but a separate comment was: “If the [revenue tax, jizya, tax officer] throws dirt into their mouths, they [Hindus] without reluctance open their mouths wide to receive it.” Contrary to Islamic sharia and the Qur’an, a Hanifa imam allowed Hindus to pay the jizya which ire a lot of imams and Muslims since that was not Muhammad’s words or Allah’s law.

Sakar wrote:

“When a class are publicly depressed and harassed by law and executive caprice alike, they merely content themselves with dragging on an animal existence. With every generous instinct of the soul crushed out of them, the intellectual culture merely adding a keen edge to their sense of humiliation, the Hindus could not be expected to produce the utmost of which they were capable; their lot was to be hewers of wood and drawers of water to their masters, to bring grist to the fiscal mill, to develop low cunning and flattery as the only means of saving what they could of their own labor. Amidst such social conditions, the human hand and human spirit cannot achieve their best; the human soul cannot soar to its highest pitch. The barreness of intellect and meanness of spirit of the Hindu upper classes are the greatest condemnation of Muhammadan rule in India. The Muhammadan political tree judged by its fruit was an utter failure.”

The Arab Muslims essentially did this to themselves too but without the humiliation inflicted on non-Muslims. Yes, they managed to produce some intelligent people (those capable of reading and writing, science minded folks, etc.) but during the so-called Golden Age of Islam, many were Persians, Greeks and pre-convert non-Muslims who went along with the show in order to get good jobs and not pay the jizya tax. By only taking science, philosophy, things like clocks, weights and measures, weapons, the western calendar system, etc., while eschewing all cultural things from music to art to literature and the materials to make those things, it probably caused a lot of untapped potential. There were even some educated Muslim women who accomplished one thing or another, but relatively few, and nothing along the lines of famous American women or Russian first woman into space.

The Dark Ages in Europe was like this depression. Things like art, literature, philosophical writing, etc. still happened but were much less than before. Islam will always hit a progress wall if it continues this way. If becomes “reformed,” which entails some serious denunciations and of their prophet, then it won’t be to all aggressive, conservative Muslims, and there are many young ones in their 20s who are that way. You might say that there all these Muslims in the West with advanced degrees in X number of fields, and quite a few in Islam and religious studies, but what I’m finding is, there’s a lot of in-critical thinking and intellectual dishonesty aside from science and technology which uses other kinds of creative thinking.

Critical thinking and analysis should start at 4 years old, the age when children start really questioning the world around them. My parents wouldn’t give me all the answers to my questions-I had to think it out for myself first. In my opinion, when a person engages so much lack of critical thinking and honest intellectualism for so long or so much, it’s like a serial liar who just can’t stop-it gets so ingrained similar to how narcissistic personality disorder is virtually impossible to cure, per psychologists.

When I read a Muslim article writer yesterday sort of put down the West’s Enlightenment period, I thought they don’t really understand all that it entailed. Since I’m a literature person, I could liken such to the Romantic period, or the Renaissance period, or the Gilded Age in America which produced a lot of nice things before the Great Depression, and so on. It appears that this Muslim author tries to attach it too much to secularism, which is false, but rather a step. The Enlightment, Renaissance, and Romantic period were chock full of all things religion related.

Anyway, I’m babbling and won’t go further into this. Your Disqus got me thinking. When you take away critical thinking, freedom of thought and expression, personal freedoms, individualism, and self-determination it’s like the World Trade Center coming down and all the consequential effects, but worse. Who were heroes that say? The firefighters…the Hellfire fighters.

Jesus said, “…you will know them by their fruits.”

Qur’anically speaking, (88:8, 56:27, 55:68) that would be both deeds and the all-year-round fruits hanging low so you can pick them while lounging on silken cushions and (thrones) in Paradise. Banana trees, date palms, and pomegranates, young beautiful, big-eyed Houri girls, boys are fresh as pearls, even sparkling wine that doesn’t get you intoxicated nor gives you headaches. What are the most important deeds that Allah demands? Submission, surrendering, obedience to Allah via Muhammad, not questioning, zakat, and jihad, all to culminate in a spectacularly disturbing Day of Judgment (or Doom).
