Why do I think that we may be near the end of Democracy and Capitalism?? Well let's take a look at recent events and then you decide.
1. There was a supposed housing crisis, that was actually caused by people living beyond there means and banks allowing them to do it. Of course that was dictated by Barney Franks and the House Finance Committee that told the banks they have to give HALF of their housing loans to Low Income Families.
That would not have done it if that were all that had happened. But in order to make that happen "The Barney SHOW" and the housing lenders got creative and decided to offer a new deal, the "sub-prime loan". this means that you buy a house that you normally couldn't afford but the banks are gonna help you out.
How? you only have to pay 2 or 3 percent interest per month on that loan (for the first five years that is) after that you have to pay that mortgage at 7.5 -9 percent in some cases in order to make up the difference that you were not paying for that first five years. Oh Yeah, and while you weren't PAYING that interest in the beginning, it was still accumulating.
So naturally when these people that bought all of these homes under this plan had to face the music and start paying a mortgage that had doubled or more OVER NIGHT they couldn't and had to sell or get foreclosed. That caused the banks to move to the edge of collapse, but only the ones that took part in that deal. To include the banks that traded and sold those mortgages like stock when they new that those loans were RADIOACTIVE to start with.
In most of those cases the banks knew that the borrower was not going to be able to afford that house even after five years and some "FORE CASTED RAISES" that might come. They did it anyway, all at the behest of the "Barney Show". President Bush, Senator McCaine , Ben Bernake and others all tried to tell MR FRANKS that the banking industry and housing market in particular needed to be better regulated because of what was happening and what was coming.
MR FRANKS said "the housing market is doing well, there is no problem. why would I listen you, you're trying to scare the people into believing the sky is falling." And he did nothing to stop it. Then when it happened, he blamed President Bush and the Republicans in office.
But don't worry, here comes the LIBERALS (SOCIALISTS) to save the day. With control of congress and backing from the white house (PRES BUSH) they spent 750 BILLION dollars to prop up these banks that had done this instead of letting the market decide which banks should survive and which should fail. Originally the 750 billion was so that our government could buy the "TOXIC" loans from the banks, let the owners stay in their homes and renegotiate the loan to make it affordable. After Paulson received the money instead of doing that he gave it to the banks.
In that moment the banks that took government money became government owned. the new President came into office and took off as fast as he could to make sure that he achieved his objectives of DICTATORSHIP. He fired CEOs of companies, came up with a "stress test" to see if the banks were financially sound and when his minions decided that they weren't made them take more money thereby increasing his control over them.
2. He then turned his eyes toward the auto industry because they too were in trouble and they too were too big to fail. He gave them A LOT of money (except FORD, WAY TO GO FORD) and now is trying to mandate what type of vehicles they produce because now they have government money and they have to listen. Do you remember that the SOCIALISTS in office right now said that because they gave bail out money to the banks and auto industry that now the government gets to appoint board member to those companies? and the company doesn't have a choice. Welcome to RUSSIA folks!
3. Now he has the following things on his agenda; HEALTH CARE, that's a nightmare and oh yeah, the DEATH PANEL that SARAH PALIN was criticized for pointing out, IT'S STILL IN THE DRAFT THAT PASSED THE SENATE. I guess she isn't such a nut after all.
4. Then there is CAP and TRADE. if you do not know about this folks, READ UP ON IT! it will cause all of our electric bills to double every month. If you think its hard to pay now, just wait, it can get worse!!
5. Then there is the so called "SMART GRID" electrical transmission upgrade. But this is more than an upgrade. With this the government will put a digital box in your home where your thermostat is now and when the grid is complete and the monitoring computers are online "to test the system for reliability" the government will be able to see what your air conditioning is set on and if they think you are using to much electricity they will turn it off for you. REMOTELY and if you turn it back on before they want you to then you get a huge fine. But that applies to the heater and winter time as well. All of those people in the northern states that get a lot of snow might be in trouble come winter time.
6. Now we hear that the MR Obama wants to pass "NET NEUTRALITY" laws and the FCC wants to tax the Internet purchases you make. The net neutrality laws are like the Fairness Act only on the net. If they don't like what you have to say they can make you stop saying it and if you don't they can fine you or put you in jail.
7. ALL of this is happening right under your noses and if we do not stand up to these people and fight back we may not be able to in the very near future. What happens when they come and try to take our guns. Do you give them up and get led to the slaughter like a lamb?
NOT ME DAMN IT!!!
The only way they are taking what is legally and rightfully mine is out of my cold dead hand after I have emptied all of my ammo protecting freedom!!! I am a soldier and a PATRIOT and my oath of office says to "Protect and Defend the CONSTITUTION OF THE UNITED STATES against ALL ENEMIES FOREIGN AND DOMESTIC!!
What are you as an American going to do to protect what our founding fathers fought and died for? What are you going to do to protect the freedoms that so many of our men and women in uniform have laid down their lives and shed blood and tears for over the last 260 years?
What are we as TEXANS going to do to insure that we do not lose what OUR founding fathers, men like Stephen F. Austin, William B. Travis, Davy Crockett, Sam Houston and Jim Bowie, fought to insure for us. We have faced a battle with a stronger, bigger nation in the past, and we sent Santa Anna back home to Mexico with his tail between his legs. Let us hope it doesn't come to that again. But remember this; WE HAVE AN OBLIGATION TO OUR FORE FATHERS AND GRAND CHILDREN ALIKE TO PROTECT AND DEFEND TO THE VERY END WHAT WE WERE GIVEN SO THAT WE CAN PASS IT ON TO THE NEXT GENERATION OF FREE MEN!!!
There are things that our state government can do to stop the madness from spilling over into our sovereign state lands. We as voters just have to make our voices heard, and if Washington doesn't listen then Austin will and we can once again become THE REPUBLIC OF TEXAS!! CALL YOU CONGRESSMEN, CALL YOUR SENATOR AND DEMAND THAT THEY STOP THIS MADNESS!!! If they can't or won't the tell your local state rep how you feel. make sure that our voices are heard by our leaders in Austin and let them know that we do not want what the rest of the country is doing.

Why should we care??
So I just saw that Mr Obama has reiterated his promise to abolish the don't ask don't tell policy and allow openly gay people to join and serve in the military. Why does it matter? I do not understand why the gay community is in such a big fuss over this. Personally, I don't want to know if they are gay or not, it's not any of my business and frankly...I DON'T CARE ABOUT WHAT THEY DO IN PRIVATE!!!! What I do care about is good order and discipline in the ranks. Now don't get me wrong, I am not saying in anyway that an openly gay person would be any less disciplined than any other soldier. What I am saying is that there are places in the military where there are NO PRIVATE SHOWER facilities and many people, including myself, will not feel comfortable being naked in the same room with another person of the same sex that is openly gay.
That alone will cause problems with moral, discipline and structure within the military. How? Well for one, that person will be taking showers by themselves for the most part because I do not know a single straight person that will take a shower and put themselves in a position of having to be naked in the same room as an openly gay male. this is not a discrimination thing, it is a comfort thing for the vast majority of the military males serving today. And if the powers that be tried to force the ranks to do so there would be so many IG complaints of reverse discrimination and infringing upon one groups right to privacy in order to conform to another groups desire that the backlash would be devastating to the military, starting with a MASS EXODUS of men and women leaving the military.
If you are gay, join the military if you want to, keep your sexual preferences to yourself and behind closed doors. I would not show up and talk about which girl I spent the weekend with or discuss those PRIVATE MATTERS with the people that I work with. Nor would I show any PUBLIC DISPLAY OF AFFECTION to any girl, including my wife, while in uniform.
What your sexual preference is is your business. Frankly, I don't care if you keep a harem of goats in your basement as long as i dont have to see it or be forced to be around it. Keep it to yourself and be HUMBLE and PRIVATE about your personal affairs. Why is it so important that you tell the world that you are gay and I have to accept it graciously and if i do not agree with you them I am a bigot?
That is like just this past week. I had a guy that I have known for 2 years say some things to me that shocked and offended me. We had a bit of a falling out about 3 months ago and for the last 2 months I have been trying to mend those fences. He is a black male 1LT and I am an American Indian Warrant Officer. Finally after 2 months of trying, he sat down at my table and we started to have a conversation. Now I have know that he is a liberal and he knows I am a conservative. the conversation turned to Mr Obama and I told him that there is an article that he should read. It is written by a guy that went to see Charles Krauthammer Speak about Mr Obama. In this speach Mr Krauthammer says that you need to watch what Mr Obama does and do not listen to what he says because he is saying what the masses want to hear but is doing what he wants. He also says that Mr Obama is an egotistical narsasist that thinks he is the ruler of the world.
Well after my former friend read that article he wrote me an email and said "YOU AND EVERYONE THAT THINKS LIKE YOU JUST CANT STAND THAT THERE IS A BLACK MAN IN THE WHITEHOUSE BECAUSE ALL YOU WANT IS SOME RICH, WHITE, LAND OWNER THAT HAS BEEN THE STATUS QUOE."
I wrote back to him and said that I really didn't care if the guy is green, i don't agree with his policies. for him to say something like that made him sound like Louis Farrakahn or Malcom X and that that kind of thinking only perpetuates the hate of the past instead of working toward the future. I also told him that I was offended that after 2 years he didnt know me at all. His response to me on that was to say that the fact that I was offended only proves that I am a racisit.
He further went on to say that the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution of the United States are irrelevant documents that are dated and don't matter anymore. And that the Military was pork barrel spending and unnecessary.
All because I disagree with raising my taxes to pay for a health care bill that is going to allow someone who doesn't want to work or take care of their own body to get a heart valve replacment yet take away from my 67 year old mothers MediCare insurance to help pay for it. Mean while they tell my mom that her heart problem isn't as bad as it was before the current administration took office. I dont understand how last December they told her that it was imperative that she get this procedure done and in February it is no longer important. Welcome to what OBAMACARE is going to be like folks.
Now he wants to allow those that march in the gay pride rallies wearing diapers and caring sex toys to come into the military and he honestly thinks that there will not be problems??? He said right before the election night "WE ARE 5 DAYS AWAY FROM FUNDAMENTALLY CHANGING THIS COUNTRY" and he absolutely meant that! We are in real trouble folks and its going to be another year before we can vote out the liberals in congress and get some conservative responsible people back into the positions that can represent us.
I urge you to start asking questions now and make sure that the left partisans in our state get voted out. We need to show the rest of the country that we refuse to go down that road with them. We need to show them that we disagree with them and we need to force our politicains to listen to us and not the lobbyists. we elected them not the lobbyists. We need to raise our voices and be heard as conservatives so that the rest of the conservatives across the country can have an example to look to and do the same thing.
We are TEXANS and we have been fighting for freedom since before the ALAMO!! Do you guys remember your history about that? I hope so. The part that I hope you remember the most is when William B. Travis draws a line in the sand and says
"Those who will stand with me step across and be counted as men!!"
It is time for that line to be drawn again!! We must defend what we beleive in or live with the consequences of our inaction!! We must fight agianst the hijacking of our rights that our forefathers fought and died to preserve for us and all of our generations to come. It is our DUTY, our RESPONSIBILITY to take back what is being stolen from us piece by piece everytime there is a vote in Congress. If we do not act now there is going to come a day very soon when we no longer have the power to act without being branded as criminals and traitors. Do not vote along party lines!!! The two party sytem is broken, it is a criminal organization on both sides!! vote for those that beleive in the power of the people, all of the people!! If we have to there are ways to use the legislation in our constitution to protect our Freedoms from the tyranny of the Federal government. It was written that way on purpose.
WE as Americans have a responsibility to our fathers and grandfathers and great grand fathers to protect what they lived and breathed for and to preserve it for our children and grand children and great grand children so that they know that it is their responsibility to do the same and hold the government accountable to the people not the other way around!! If the rest of America's conservatives are unwilling to stand with us then we as TEXANS must stand alone AGAIN!!! The time for action is here and we must make our voices heard before the government tries to silence us for good!!!
That alone will cause problems with moral, discipline and structure within the military. How? Well for one, that person will be taking showers by themselves for the most part because I do not know a single straight person that will take a shower and put themselves in a position of having to be naked in the same room as an openly gay male. this is not a discrimination thing, it is a comfort thing for the vast majority of the military males serving today.

great article by Ben Stien
WE FIGURED HIM OUT! By Ben Stein
Why is President Barack Obama in such a hurry to get his socialized medicine bill passed?
Because he and his cunning circle realize some basic truths:The American people in their unimaginable kindness and trust voted for a pig in a poke in 2008.
They wanted so much to believe Barack Obama was somehow better and different from other ultra-leftists that they simply took him on faith.
They ignored his anti-white writings in his books.
They ignored his quiet acceptance of hysterical anti-American diatribes by his minister, Jeremiah Wright.
They ignored his refusal to explain years at a time of his life as a student.
They ignored his ultra-left record as a "community organizer," Illinois state legislator, and Senator.
The American people ignored his total zero of an academic record as a student and teacher, his complete lack of scholarship when he was being touted as a scholar.
Now, the American people are starting to wake up to the truth. Barack Obama is a super likeable super leftist, not a fan of this country, way, way too cozy with the terrorist leaders in the Middle East, way beyond naïveté, all the way into active destruction of our interests and our allies and our future.
The American people have already awakened to the truth that the stimulus bill -- a great idea in theory -- was really an immense bribe to Democrat interest groups, and in no way an effort to help all Americans.
Now, Americans are waking up to the truth that Obama Care basically means that every time you are sick or injured, you will have a clerk from the Department of Motor Vehicles telling your doctor what he can and cannot do.
The American people already know that Mr. Obama's plan to lower health costs while expanding coverage and bureaucracy is a myth, a promise of something that never was and never will be -- a bureaucracy lowering costs in a free society. Either the costs go up or the free society goes away.
These are perilous times. Mrs. Hillary Clinton, our Secretary of State, has given Iran the go-ahead to have nuclear weapons, an unqualified betrayal of the nation.
Now, we face a devastating loss of freedom at home in health care. It will be joined by controls on our lives to "protect us" from global warming, itself largely a fraud if believed to be caused by man.
Mr. Obama knows Americans are getting wise and will stop him if he delays at all in taking away our freedoms.There is his urgency and our opportunity. Once freedom is lost, America is lost. Wake up, beloved America.

interesting article
this is long but worth the read. from Lee Jay Walker. this is an eye opener.
The United States is now gradually waking up to a growing internalIslamic menace which desires to kill in the name of Islam. In the pastweek you have had three different cases involving Islamists who desiredto kill and intimidate the people of America. In the United Kingdom thesame problem exists but just like in America, under President Obama,both nations are pandering to Islam and propagating false lies aboutthis religion. Therefore, it is time to focus on the real factors behindthe growing Sunni Islamic threat within America and in other nations.The first important factor that must be understood is that this threatcomes from radical Sunni Islam and not from Shia Islam. In America andthe United Kingdom you have many Shia Muslims; however, it is clear thatall major global Islamic terrorism derives from radical Sunni Islam.It is also abundantly clear that the Ahmadiyya Muslim community is notinvolved in terrorism because their brand of Islam is based on differentinterpretations and this branch of Islam suffers greatly in Pakistan andother nations, for example in Indonesia. Therefore, it is vital tounderstand where the focus should be because Ahmadiyya Muslims and ShiaMuslims, and other branches of Islam like the Alevi, must be split fromwhere the problem exists.In Lebanon you do have Shia terrorist organizations however they arefocused on either internal problems in Lebanon or on the situation inIsrael. Also, in Yemen you have current problems with the restive Shiapopulation but once more this is an internal matter and not based onexpanding jihad and the same applies to Shia organizations in Iraq andPakistan.Therefore, Islamic terrorist attacks in America, India, Indonesia,Kenya, the United Kingdom, and other nations, have all been done byradical Sunni Islamists. Also, the inspiration behind these terroristattacks is coming from the same avenue and this avenue of terrorism andglobal Islamic jihad can be traced back to Saudi Arabia and Pakistan.B. Raman, a specialist in this field stated in the South Asia AnalysisGroup, paper number 1767, that "While the Deobandi extremists have beenbacking---openly or covertly--- Al Qaeda and its ideology, the Barelvishave been uncomfortable over it. Many of them have been critical of theuse of the Pakistani territory by Al Qaeda and the (InternationalIslamic Front) IIF for their terrorist operations in other countries.They have also been worried over the implications of the messagedisseminated by bin Laden in January, 2006, in which he claimed thatplans for another terrorist strike in the US homeland were alreadyunderway."B. Raman also states that "There are two main groups of Sunni sectarianorganisations in Pakistan---the Sipah-e-Sahaba and theLashkar-e-Jhangvi, both strongly Deobandi-Wahabi-Salafi and both membersof the IIF, and the Sunni Tehrik, strongly Barelvi andanti-Deobandi-Wahabi-Salafi. Since many years, the Sipah-e-Sahaba andthe LEJ have embarked on a campaign for the Arabisation and Wahabisationof the Barelvi Muslims and for removing the distorting influence ofHinduism. The Sunni Tehrik has been resisting the onslaught of theDeobandis, Wahabis and Salafis."Therefore, just like B. Raman points out, we can apply this to theinternational arena because the same forces and with Saudi financialbacking, irrespective if government or organizations or wealthyindividuals, is spreading the same message of hate to other nations farand wide. Yet why do nations like America, Indonesia, and the UnitedKingdom, and many others, allow this?It is abundantly clear that the Muslim community in the UK in the 1960sand 1970s is very different to elements within the Muslim communitytoday. According to B. Raman he states that "For the last fifteen years,there has been a conflict between the Deobandis and the Barelvis for thecontrol of the mosques and their funds not only in Pakistan, but also inthe UK. Previously, the Barelvis used to control the mosques in the UKfrequented by immigrants from the sub-continent, but they have sincebeen driven out by the Deobandis and Wahabis. This was the startingpoint for the radicalisation of the Pakistani-origin Muslims in the UKand in the other countries of West Europe. The ISI (Pakistan'sInter-Services Intelligence) has been supporting the Sipah-e-Sahaba andthe LEJ in Pakistan as well as in West Europe."Therefore, it is clear that funding within Pakistan and Saudi Arabia iscausing mayhem and it is obvious that you have "a war within Islam" and"an ongoing Islamic jihad" against moderate Muslims, other sects withinIslam and against non-Muslims. Other channels of funding throughout theMiddle East also applies but the mindset and ideological thinking isbased on the same branches of Islam and it is clear where thecounter-jihad must begin.Yet amazingly, and even after September 11th, whereby nearly all SunniIslamists were Saudi nationals; the United States destroyed a secularbased nation in Iraq and ignored the greater problem. After all, howmany American soldiers and other international forces have been killedby radical Saudi Islamists in Iraq or by Saudi Arabian organizationswhich preach jihad and hatred?Given this, it appears that the focus of attention is based on the wrongarea and even today Saudi Arabian funding is creating mayhem in mainlyMuslim societies or mainly non-Muslim societies where Muslim minoritiesare growing.Walid Phares, author of "The Confrontation: Winning the War againstFuture Jihad," and of many other books and a senior expert in thisfield, stated "Petro-Islamism is also having a big impact in the highereducation sector. As Walid Phares, an expert on global terrorism remarksin The War of Ideas (2007), globally, "a wave of oil funding hituniversity after university, college after college, and research centreafter research centre. The objectives were fully ideological: furtherthe cause of Islam, support the Palestinian cause, and plant the seedsof the concept of an illegitimate West."In Britain, a report about the growing rise of Islamic funding by BrunelUniversity's Centre for Intelligence and Security Studies highlightedthe nature of the problem. The report stated that more than $491 milliondollars have been spent on funding Islamic study centres and other formsof propagation. These institutions include Cambridge and Oxford,therefore, radical Islamists have gained a foothold in major circles.I myself studied at the University of London and radical Islam wasclearly a daily problem and militants were often trying to spread theirhatred and propaganda. It is also noticeable that Omar Sheikh who wasconvicted for the beheading of Daniel Pearl, the Wall Street Journalreporter, also studied at the London School of Economics.Getting back to the radical Sunni Islamic threat then it is vital toconfront this threat openly and to stop hiding behind liberalism, moralrelativism, or untold excuses for why we must understand the causesbehind radical Sunni Islam. The apologist brigade, for example KarenArmstrong, and countless others, portray Islam to be a religion of peacebut Mohammed, the prophet of Islam, did not show much peace towards hisenemies, instead he either enslaved them, had them killed or they wereexiled.Another important factor which must not be overlooked is history. Forexample the Buddhist/Hindu lands which are now called Afghanistan,Bangladesh, Pakistan, and Uzbekistan (especially influenced byZoroastrianism), and other nations; all allowed diversity despiteoccasional bouts of religious tensions. Therefore, you had Buddhists,Hindus, Jains, Nestorian Christians, Pagans, Zoroastrians, and otherfaiths, all mingling together in a vast regionHowever, the onset of Islam changed all this because over time in bothAfghanistan and Uzbekistan, the older religions of Buddhism, Hinduism,and Zoroastrianism (the oldest religion), would be Islamized because ofseveral factors.These factors were multiple but clearly the role of Islamic jihad,dhimmitude, jizya, massive persecution, slavery, forced conversion,control of resources, and so forth, all culminated in a tide ofIslamization.Yet the leaders of these areas would also have believed thataccommodation could have been met and that Islam was just anotherreligion. However, Islam is based on victor and vanquished, and thisreligion is more like an ideology because it fuses religion, politics,economics, law, and the regulation of society, together and clearlynon-Muslims are unequal (indeed Buddhists and Hindus are deemed to besubhuman because they are not people of the Book) in accordance with theteachings of Islam.Even in 2009 apostates from Islam can be killed in accordance with theteachings of Mohammed and other religious believers are still sufferingfrom Islamization. This applies to Christians being burnt alive inPakistan, apostates from Islam being killed in Somalia, attacks againstAhmadiyya Muslims in Pakistan, persecution of Baha'is in Iran, Christianpastors being beheaded in northern Nigeria, Assyrian Christians andother minorities (Shabaks, Yazidis and Mandaean) also fear daily attacksand the same applies to the persecution of Coptic Christians in Egypt.The forces of Islamic jihad is ongoing and Buddhists face severepersecution in southern Thailand and the Chittagong Hill Tracts (alsoChristian and Hindu tribal's) in Bangladesh and of course Buddhism inhistory always collapsed when Islamic armies conquered their lands.I stated in a past article, that "Today, just like the 7th century,Islam is still killing apostates or persecuting them. Today, just likein the 7th century, Muslims are still waging wars against non-Muslims incountless numbers of nations. Today, just like the 7th century, Muslimfanatics are still killing fellow Muslims who are deemed to be notMuslim enough.""The apologists will keep on making excuses; however, it is clear thatin many parts of the Islamic dominated world, that hatred stilldictates. Therefore, in 2009, just like in the 7th century, non-Muslimsstill suffer enormous persecution and some Islamists are still dreamingof spreading Islam by the sword or by propaganda."Now this war against non-Muslims and moderate Muslims alike is beingwaged in northern Nigeria against Christians, against Ahmadiyya Muslimsin Pakistan, against Hindus in Bangladesh and Pakistan, and againstBuddhists in southern Thailand. The same also applies to countless otherconflicts or nations where minorities suffer enormous persecution, forexample the persecution of Coptic Christians in Egypt.This jihad is now being propagated within nations like America and theUnited Kingdom. Yet how can you confront your enemy when you have toplay by political correctness, pander to the very same people who wantto enforce Islamic Sharia law on you or have dialogue with a religionwhich supports killing all apostates and treating non-Muslims unequallyin Islamic Sharia law?If we ignore the past diversity of Afghanistan, Bangladesh, Pakistan,and Uzbekistan, then one day our civilizations may end up the same way?After all, just like the past, religious leaders and elites within theBuddhist, Hindu, Nestorian Christian, and Zoroastrian communities didnot understand the true nature of Islam. However, by the time theyunderstood it was too late and today Buddhism in Afghanistan andPakistan is a distant memory and the same applies to Zoroastrianism inUzbekistan. At the same time, in the modern world Buddhism may soon be adistant memory in southern Thailand if Islamists get their way and maybeIraq will soon have no more Mandaeans?Walid Phares comments on recent events in America and states that "TheNorth Carolina cell, the New York subway plot, the Dallas attempt, theIllinois case, added to the previous cases of the shooting of a soldierin Arkansas, the precedent New York cells, Georgia's young Jihadists,all the way back to the infamous Virginia paintball network, if anythinggives us the genome of what is morphing inside the country -- a vastbody of dispersed cells with at least one binding force -- the Jihadiideology. The question thus is to find out who is propagating thedoctrines of Jihadism: who is funding it; who is protecting theindoctrination operation which leads naturally to the rise of homegrownor foreign linked, lone wolves or packs of Jihadists, Terrorists. Thatis the real question: where is the factory?"Therefore, it is vital to stop major funding which is spreading radicalSunni Islam and to focus on where the threat is. It is also vital thatnational governments work together and that history is not forgotten.Also, more attention must be focused on persecution and injustice"within the House of Islam" and the "real Mohammed" must be told insteadof the Western liberal version which is bent on appeasement andrevisionism.
The United States is now gradually waking up to a growing internalIslamic menace which desires to kill in the name of Islam. In the pastweek you have had three different cases involving Islamists who desiredto kill and intimidate the people of America. In the United Kingdom thesame problem exists but just like in America, under President Obama,both nations are pandering to Islam and propagating false lies aboutthis religion. Therefore, it is time to focus on the real factors behindthe growing Sunni Islamic threat within America and in other nations.The first important factor that must be understood is that this threatcomes from radical Sunni Islam and not from Shia Islam. In America andthe United Kingdom you have many Shia Muslims; however, it is clear thatall major global Islamic terrorism derives from radical Sunni Islam.It is also abundantly clear that the Ahmadiyya Muslim community is notinvolved in terrorism because their brand of Islam is based on differentinterpretations and this branch of Islam suffers greatly in Pakistan andother nations, for example in Indonesia. Therefore, it is vital tounderstand where the focus should be because Ahmadiyya Muslims and ShiaMuslims, and other branches of Islam like the Alevi, must be split fromwhere the problem exists.In Lebanon you do have Shia terrorist organizations however they arefocused on either internal problems in Lebanon or on the situation inIsrael. Also, in Yemen you have current problems with the restive Shiapopulation but once more this is an internal matter and not based onexpanding jihad and the same applies to Shia organizations in Iraq andPakistan.Therefore, Islamic terrorist attacks in America, India, Indonesia,Kenya, the United Kingdom, and other nations, have all been done byradical Sunni Islamists. Also, the inspiration behind these terroristattacks is coming from the same avenue and this avenue of terrorism andglobal Islamic jihad can be traced back to Saudi Arabia and Pakistan.B. Raman, a specialist in this field stated in the South Asia AnalysisGroup, paper number 1767, that "While the Deobandi extremists have beenbacking---openly or covertly--- Al Qaeda and its ideology, the Barelvishave been uncomfortable over it. Many of them have been critical of theuse of the Pakistani territory by Al Qaeda and the (InternationalIslamic Front) IIF for their terrorist operations in other countries.They have also been worried over the implications of the messagedisseminated by bin Laden in January, 2006, in which he claimed thatplans for another terrorist strike in the US homeland were alreadyunderway."B. Raman also states that "There are two main groups of Sunni sectarianorganisations in Pakistan---the Sipah-e-Sahaba and theLashkar-e-Jhangvi, both strongly Deobandi-Wahabi-Salafi and both membersof the IIF, and the Sunni Tehrik, strongly Barelvi andanti-Deobandi-Wahabi-Salafi. Since many years, the Sipah-e-Sahaba andthe LEJ have embarked on a campaign for the Arabisation and Wahabisationof the Barelvi Muslims and for removing the distorting influence ofHinduism. The Sunni Tehrik has been resisting the onslaught of theDeobandis, Wahabis and Salafis."Therefore, just like B. Raman points out, we can apply this to theinternational arena because the same forces and with Saudi financialbacking, irrespective if government or organizations or wealthyindividuals, is spreading the same message of hate to other nations farand wide. Yet why do nations like America, Indonesia, and the UnitedKingdom, and many others, allow this?It is abundantly clear that the Muslim community in the UK in the 1960sand 1970s is very different to elements within the Muslim communitytoday. According to B. Raman he states that "For the last fifteen years,there has been a conflict between the Deobandis and the Barelvis for thecontrol of the mosques and their funds not only in Pakistan, but also inthe UK. Previously, the Barelvis used to control the mosques in the UKfrequented by immigrants from the sub-continent, but they have sincebeen driven out by the Deobandis and Wahabis. This was the startingpoint for the radicalisation of the Pakistani-origin Muslims in the UKand in the other countries of West Europe. The ISI (Pakistan'sInter-Services Intelligence) has been supporting the Sipah-e-Sahaba andthe LEJ in Pakistan as well as in West Europe."Therefore, it is clear that funding within Pakistan and Saudi Arabia iscausing mayhem and it is obvious that you have "a war within Islam" and"an ongoing Islamic jihad" against moderate Muslims, other sects withinIslam and against non-Muslims. Other channels of funding throughout theMiddle East also applies but the mindset and ideological thinking isbased on the same branches of Islam and it is clear where thecounter-jihad must begin.Yet amazingly, and even after September 11th, whereby nearly all SunniIslamists were Saudi nationals; the United States destroyed a secularbased nation in Iraq and ignored the greater problem.
