The False Religion of Peace

In the year 610 A.C., a commerce man called Mahoma misinterpret the sacred books of Christians and Jews and self-proclaimed as the Prophet from God (Apoc.216:13). He claimed that Jesus was a simple prophet and that even Jesus announced him as the Savior. This is how Islam was born and along with it, the Quran, a triturated version of the Bible and the Torah.
History has witnessed the numerous Christian populations and settlements that fell under Muslim governance, torturing their political and religious representatives, executing all those who oppose to conversion, slavering children, and demolishing religious infrastructures other than Muslim, and building more Mosques to establish a well settlement in place.
Islam contains political and religious ingredients in its foundation with the purpose of disseminating terror around the world by executing threats and paramilitary activities “in the name of Allah.” With the fall of the Ottoman Empire after WWII, Islam suffered a huge impact that weakened its political and religious structure, but the promise against the Christian and Jewish worlds remained pending and never forgotten. From the Islam perspective, the Occident needs to be annihilated at whatever cost. The promise to regroup and be a strong force in Europe was part of the strategy that today we can see it as an accomplished goal. Muslim cleric Qaradawi from Egypt affirmed that the regain of Europe was a victory for Islam.
If we pay attention to the spread of Islam in the world we can easily determine that it hasn’t been peaceful but a bloody corrosion. In Africa, for example Jihad has expanded tremendously raping non-Muslim women, destroying nom-Muslim houses of worship, imposing fear, threatening and killing people, and forcing entire communities to conversion into Islam. On October 6, 2006 in Ethiopia suffered hundreds of assassinations during a confrontation between Christians and Muslims. A group of Muslims opposed to the Christian celebration of Meskel, a religious party of the Orthodox Church. On December 18, 2007 thirteen businesses were destroyed by the evil hands of pro-Muslim forces. In the city of Copto it was prohibited to build or even repair churches of non-Muslim nomenclature, and higher taxes were imposed by the government for being a non-Muslim population. In Asia, for example Jihad has also expanded tremendously. On October 24, 2005 three Indonesian teen girls, Theresia Morangke, Yarni Samubue, and Alfita Poliwo were decapitated for resisting to converting into Islam. On September 22, 2006 three Indonesian Christian men executed for plotting attacks against Muslims. In Philippines, Islamic guerrillas decapitated many Christian preachers in the city of Jolo. In Oriental Timor, the orphanage Juan Bautista was attacked by Muslim militants and many of the female students were sexually abused. Also, 15 Christian preachers were assassinated in the cities of Dili and Boucau. Thousands of Christians have left the Middle East due to the constant threat of Muslims such as in Lebanon, where Christians represent now half of the population.
The future of the world is critical. Europe is already “Eurabia” with over 50 million of Muslims responding to the predictions of Ayatollah Ali Jamenei of Iraq, who saw this occupation coming without the guns and swords.
We don’t have to go too far to experience the spread of Islam. Both of our borders are sensible and exposed to the smell and dark cloud extremists usually possess; Canada population of Muslims have increased tremendously in the last decade, and Mexican cities are already tasting the conversion of its citizens into Islam. Are we ready to confront the reality of a corrosive spread of Islam?

Radical Islam: A Growing Cancer

Without a doubt, the events of September 11, 2001 marked the initiation of the efforts to fight terrorism. We did not know the enemy’s nature, short and long term capabilities, vested commitment to destroy our nation, and what strategy to use to neutralize, control, and eliminate the threat of the enemy.
The good thing is that we were conscious enough to understand that terrorists meant business and that their commitment goes beyond seriousness and extremism. The bad thing is that after more than 10 years of war shifted from Iraqi to Afghani territory, the leader of Al Q’aeda, Osama bin Laden still is at large. The war has affected also our allies and their compromise to team up in the fight against terrorism. By the time America understood the significance and popularity of the growth and danger of Radical Islam, European nations’ power has long since faded due to the expansion of the cancerous virus called Radical Islam. An ongoing mistake America embraces from one administration to the next is to see the Middle East as cleanly divided between two arenas: a moderate, pro-American that ought to be bolstered and a militant, pro-Iranian one that needs to be contained. That conception is not the reality and we must not continue seeing this as such because it does not allow intelligence strategists to counter attack the threat efficiently. America still ignores the role of new prominent elements at the door of terror such as Turkey as a clear sign of not realizing the changes in the composition of the Middle East. If we ignore those changes, we are making it more complicated to understand the political changes in the region. How are we going to assess Saudi Arabia’s resumed dialogue with the terrorist organization Hamas? How are we going to assess the Saudi ties with Syria? How are we going to asses Damascus’ regime involved in the shipment of armament and explosives to the terrorist organization Hezbollah? How are going to assess the strength and rapid alliance of Iran with Syria, Yemen, and Damascus? And, how are we going to assess the relations with Turkey when this nation has developed strong ties with Syria, mediating a nuclear deal with Iran, and proven to have strong ties with the terrorist organization Hamas?
We started the war on terror by invading the wrong country; that’s a fact. However, the capture of Saddam Hussein created the curtain to disregard negative comments about this erroneous first step and the invasion became the masterpiece of the entire strategy. The problem was that we failed to maintain a strong and direct defined objective as we did during Desert Storm during the George H.W. Bush administration by forcing Iraq out of Kuwait territory in 1991. Consequently, the assembly of multi-national forces maintained strong political ties for years to come, as it did, better than before, the results of the peace conference in Madrid to improve the relations Arab-Israeli. The Clinton administration contained Iran and Iraq while managing the Arab-Israeli everlasting conflict through diplomacy. Between 1991 until the end of the Clinton administration, America was able to neutralize the region’s three most critical arenas of conflict: the Arab-Persian fault line, the occupied Palestinian territories, and the time-bomb called Lebanon. During the George W. Bush administration, the handling of the crystal ball of the Israeli-Arab affairs shifted more to the Israeli side and the Intifada of 2000 put the Palestinians and all the terrorist groups they support in a situation that only grew more and throw the pendulum to the opposite side of the political relations in the region.
The George W. Bush policy of “with us or against us” to fight terrorism created animosity toward the United States and it promptly became widespread. We were at war and we needed to deal with animosity as in any other military intervention. The results of the war 10 years later reflect the total destruction of the sanguinary regime in Iraq but it allowed Iran spread its influence beyond its borders toward the Arab world. Hezbollah has strengthen its forces and commitment to annihilate anti-Muslims, and the bankruptcy of peace processes boosted Hamas and gave the terrorists the clear arena to adhere to the fatwa issued in 1998 by Osama bin Laden. What have we done wrong to allow Syria its continuance in relations with Radical Islamist terrorist organizations? What have we done wrong to allow Hezbollah infiltrate the political hemisphere in Lebanon? What have we done wrong when trying to sit in the same table Israel, Saudi-Arabia, and Iraq if these critical chess-pieces never shared neither values nor interests? What have we done right or maybe we think is right but it is just an invisible strategy from Syria to be willing to negotiate peace relations with Israel while Iran has openly called for its destruction? Practically, no country in the Middle East has a positive agenda or is in a position to successfully advance one as long as Radical Islam heart still beating.
It won’t be easy for the United States to undertake strong, effective, and lethal measures against Radical Islam. It may increase regional divisions, increase more tension, and increase the chances of more conflicts in different territories. President Barack Hussein Obama started his administration with the unmistakable decision and ambition of reversing the results of the war on terrorism but he has forgotten to close the book on failed policies and strategies of the past, and design a strong arrow that carries the strongest venom to the heart of Radical Islam.

Islamic Fatwa vs. American Political Correctness

Is this the time to start racial and religious profiling? Can this approach be the response or process to the TSA increasing safety measures and security? The answer is yes, at least this is the opinion and recommendation of Asra Nomani, a Muslim who supports religious and racial profiling to enhance the security of airports and other points of entry to the United States. We have embraced the nation into so many political correctness attitude that is choking us and does not let us fight back the forces of aversion, which is represented by Radical Islam. In 1998, Osama bin Laden issued a "fatwa" indicating that airlines and airports are legitimate targets for Muslims. The response can be easily seen in the threats and or terrorist activities in Glascow, London, JFK, and others as well as airlines attacks with one common denominator called "Muslim." Nomani indicated that we can be discriminating wihout being discriminatory. It is time to focus on the threat of terrorism and forget the stupid and unnecessary political correctness when dealing with the leprosy of humanity, terrorists. Osama bin Laden was serious about the decret and took charge of an international plan, which continues to be the threat to the Western hemisphere, especially the United States as it is against the State of Israel. While the leader of Al Q'aeda plans and executes according to the fatwa, Americans worry about political correctness and still surviving an almost failed war on terrorism going into its eleven year. Religion and race have to be part of the threat assessment for the intelligence community. It is a matter and need of being realistic of the perpretators, the countries they are coming from, the language they speak, the frequency they travel, and the way they dress. The assessment needs to be conducted constantly and meticulously. The concern of civil rights movements will always interfere when pulling the racial profile card, and this is enough for politicians that do not concentrate on the real threat but the feelings of groups concerned mostly on their rights than on the nation's sovereignty.
