Muskrats, mosquerats, lets call the whole thing off!
By Johnny D. Symon
A long ways back, 1821 to be precise, a man named Heinrich Heine delivered the following assurance;
"He who burns books, will, in the end, also burn people."
Did Heine present this grim scenario by way of prophecy? I do not know, and maybe he didn't either, yet one way or the other his warning took flight and landed firmly in the lap of the National Socialist Party of Germany in the 1930's. First to be consumed was Hebrew literature, then finally 6 million innocent Jewish men, women and children.
Possibly Heine was simply delivering that certain wisdom from the inner sanctum of his God given spirit. A cry from the heart, presented with such great certainty and conviction, yet a cry that nonetheless fell on deaf German socialist ears. Thereon, and as a direct consequence, ww2 exacted its toll on many more innocent human beings. Then and on we continued to roll, the worst laid plans of mice and men, by which I strongly include the burning of books and indeed flags. Both items should represent the essence of a nation and its peoples.
For America the flag and the Bible are fondly shared in a form we generally refer to as The American Judeo-Christian Tradition. Both religions share the same Book, and that Book includes God's Commandments that laid the foundation for America's judicial system, a due process that the present White House imposter is currently dismantling.
Nevertheless my point is made, that the flag and the Bible are sacrosanct items for genuine God-hearted Americans. That's precisely why I personally do not agree to the burning of the Koran, for to consume a religion's foundational literature is to symbolically deny a certain group their right to religious freedom. Oddly enough, while it's only too common to witness US flag-burning scenes throughout the Islamic world, and I most certainly should know, it happens to be a most rare occasion to find angry Muslims burning the Bible. It's most rare for the following reason;
Even Osama bin Laden acknowledges Jesus, Moses, Abraham, as authentic Godly men. Which is more than can be said for Barack Hussein Obama, who openly ridiculed the Sermon on the Mount, and indeed the Old Testament, just a few short years back, footage of which I've added to the "director's" cut of my blockbuster movie spectacular included in this here ed.
You see, the point I'm trying to make can again be likened to the example of a dog and stick. As the stick pokes the dog, the mutt perceives the enemy to be the sharp end of the stick, and he snaps, snarls and chews the sharp end, while failing to notice that there's a guy operating the other end, and he's the real problem.
The Koran is not the problem Americans face. It's the false application of that Book by certain sharp-stick-holders, and they're the ones our dogs of war are targeting. We ought to do likewise.
The fears of General Petraeus that a certain book-burning ceremony to be held at a Florida Church, could further endanger the US military abroad, are most real.
Years ago I chose to study the Koran, front to back, and while some things stood out as glaringly unacceptable to me, the reading of it failed to send my right hand off in reach of the nearest matchbox. I'm glad I read it though, for it's more than the Third Reich Socialists did before they burned those books they never read. Willful ignorance destroys lives.
As a military general, and a great one too, Petraeus is quite possibly injecting a little alien political DNA into his character in order to defend his troops, but I don't believe political diplomacy to be his prime objective in the war against terrorism. He deserves our support, and his troops require all the understanding we can give them. American tourists' lives shall also be in greater risk if we incite crazy leaders in this way.
It's not a stick we should give them, it's a noose. Don't believe me? Well, possibly another gem from Heinrich Heine is required here;
"One should forgive one's enemies, but not before they are hanged."
For you see, Islam, contrary to Barack Hussein Obama's assurances, cannot expect the same rights and privileges as every other religion throughout America, until it ceases to apply the novel "call for Muslims to murder" those of other faiths whom they perceive as mocking their prophet. And until they stop this monstrous process, they're little more than Islamic Latin Kings. Basically they're saying, "Shut up or Die!", and in a free and open society providing religious freedom, it's not acceptable, and must be judicially put to an end.
That for me is the problem that we've yet to address. Radical crazies elsewhere regard the Koran as a sharp-ended book to poke us with. Those bums, far from believing in Allah, are no more than rabid dogs and filthy infidels. Scum that the prophet Mohammed would spit on. Whereas, I myself personally know many Muslims, none of them would burn the Bible or the US flag, and none of them would agree to murdering non-Muslims just because they poked fun at their prophet.
American Christians and Jews stand out in stark contrast to radical Islam, because on the frequent occasion others mock their Book, neither of those two groups call out for the death of that person or persons. Which happened to be good news for Barack Hussein Obama when he mocked The Sermon on the Mount from the mouth of Jesus. All that's left of his mocking is a film footage that marks the time and vitiates his future. What a stupid little runt he is. A roach in sheep's clothing no less.
When God assured us that His Word never returns void, He meant what He said, therefore when a great man or woman chooses to take up that challenge and try Him at His Word, they find that their words and deeds, one way or another, spring to life and regenerate the appointed time and space where they directed their efforts. Others misuse the system by using solely their faithless thoughts and actions towards a section of the world's unsuspecting public, and their efforts bear fruit also, their thoughts and actions, unfortunately, fail to return void, their evil intents return to haunt and inflict their chosen victims.
As with God's Words, satan's follow suit, and those too fill a chosen space that should have been reserved for God's, a place so dimly lit and yearning to see the light of day, discovers that not only does their environment remain dark, it's becoming ever darker as time goes on.
That damnable false promise of "Yes we can!" finally dawns on those who fell for the rhetoric, and they cry out, "Yes we did, yet wish we hadn't!", as America double dips into a darkness headed by a charlatan that hates every inch of America's foundational history, a jerk best described as the Robert Mugabe of America, a communist scumbag who's time is now and his future is nigh, a bum who took America for a ride then entered office to break every single one of his electoral promises, a slimeball with an intellectual tamaño of a gnat. The boy who, on film, believed that America consisted of 60 States of the Union, who, on film, claimed that his uncle helped liberate Auschwitz, when in point of fact it was the Russian military, became President of the United States on a false and lying ticket.
Yes indeed, it's always been said that in America all things are possible, that's why the impossible became so sadly real when an imbecile cheated his way to the White House, yet so many dreams and aspirations of authentic hardworking immigrants have been fulfilled in this great country, whereas those selfsame efforts expended in other parts would most likely not have borne the same abundant fruit. America grew to become a beacon of light for the hopes of the desperately downtrodden, and many great futures were subsequently etched in stone. But America the beautiful is receiving a face job, a nip and tuck, and the end result is far from beautiful; one glance in the mirror reveals a visage more apt to star in a horror movie.
The last election saw it's soon to be Presidential winner enjoying the fruits of his violent Caucus gestapo as they prevented Liberal voters from making their choice if that choice happened to be Hillary. As with all wicked people throughout history, their sickness and evil contaminates others around them, and they too embark on an evil co-voyage, they begin to lie and cheat in order to protect their evil leader's standing. Honest folks find no difficulty performing honest endeavors, whereas Robert Mugabe clones must plow deep to plant their evil seed.
I'm sure that those of you reading this are not at a loss to know who those very people are I'm talking about. The Obama cancer campaign against America, the greatest nation on planet earth, requires many more useful idiots like himself to do their master's bidding, and I have little doubt that many more traitors will pop their treacherous heads up as the fall's election draws near.
Funny how the name Elena Kagan appears on nearly all documents throughout Obama's court proceedings to cover up on his birth certificate! Is that why he nominated that selfsame person for the Supreme? And if so, is it bribery?
And why did Holder drop the thing on the New Black Panther violence, when there was 100% conclusive evidence? Does that make him a strong pillar of the community? Or something else?
Personally I believe America to be in the grip of the worst regime in history, its communist leader, rather than sitting in the The White House, should be impeached then tried for treason. He's engineered a monstrous double dip Federal cesspit that's taken America to the brink of total destruction.
Maybe this fall the people will gather together ... conservatives and liberals ... and begin the slow and painful process of return. Another "one small step" is all we need to set us on the right road.
But something of the greatest importance, and most vital in returning America from the brink back onto solid ground, is still missing. For me it's the greatest issue America yet ignores at it's increasing peril. Now I'm fully aware of the general understanding amongst conservatives, and indeed some liberals, that Ronnie Reagan was the last great President of the United States, and while the fact is he was a great one, I myself differ and prefer to highlight President John F Kennedy, for I believe with one simple reason, while ignoring the darker aspects of his presidency, that President John F Kennedy was the last great American President, because he produced the beginnings of the Federal Reserves destruction, through introducing the Kennedy Red Bills.
Since JFK's assassination and the lightning fast removal of those bills by Johnson, no President has threatened the existence of the Federal Reserve, and never has it been audited. How strange that it's called "Federal" when it's an independent entity under foreign ownership and control. The term Federal it uses is a deception, for it has no part in government, and exists solely to serve treacherous lowlifes elsewhere.
If there is to be a next great President, as I believe JFK was for the above reason, that person can only prove they are great through destroying the Federal Reserve and placing it's main movers on trial. For that, and that alone, is the benchmark of a future great President. That man or woman would return America to it's grass roots, and a new Republic would ensue. The path to greatness, therefore, will be from the words of that person and the workings of many great people in return.
The late great artist Paul Klee, who was forced to flee from Nazi Germany, once made a remark worthy of a place here;
"Art does not reproduce the visible;
rather it makes visible."
A statement quite profound in my opinion when one considers the composition of, say, "Moonrise and Sunset." The sun is portrayed in the usual fashion, a big yellow dot, while the moon is not immediately recognizable, it looks more like a star, the Star of David in fact, small wonder the National Socialists of Germany hated him so.
Art does not reproduce the visible, rather it makes visible, and the art of walking with God makes visible the hidden works of evil leaders. That's what they fear the most.
The 9th Anniversary of September 11 draws near, and we the many who swore that we would never forget have kept our vows. In some respects 9 years is a long time, and many unsavory instances have become just faint memories, a shadow of their original impact. But the Twin Towers massacre remains in our collective conscience as if only a few minutes had passed. Innocent victims hurtling down from the smoking heights, and others calling from the windows. The noise, the fire, the smoke, and the smell, are with us still.
We will never forget because we care not to, and feel obliged to carry that scepter, or burden, for the rest of our lives. We feel personally indebted on behalf of three thousand fallen victims, that their brutal coldblooded deaths at the hands of satanic madmen should become an epitaph engraved on our hearts. Ground Zero represents that central pivot to our revolving epitaph.
Undoubtedly the Ground Zero Mosque plan will be passed, irrespective of many feelings to the contrary, and indeed against America's moral nature. The possibility of relocating the mosque was offered and roundly rejected. Much like a hypothetical plan by, say, the Catholic Church, to build a Cathedral two blocks from the center of Mecca, that too would meet with rejection.
But there is another way to deal with this. We could all approve of Ground Zero Mosque on one condition, that the Christian and Jewish community share two thirds of the cost of construction. Flanking one side would be a brand new church, and on the other, an equally new shiny synagogue. All three having community centers, and combined together we could regard them as a form of spiritual trinity, a living epitaph of moral and spiritual understanding, to heal the wounds, the heartaches, and the memory of that painful day.
Would this meet with the approval of those behind Ground Zero Mosque? A resounding 100% "No!" is definitely the answer we'd get.
Andrew Klavan dealt with the Ground Zero Mosque plan on pjtv recently. He asked, "Does Islam suck?" and answered through saying, "I guess, as we watch what happens next in Manhattan, we're going to find out."
