Op-ed:
On The Birth Of Our Nation  
By: Diane Sori / The Patriot Factor / Right Side Patriots / Right Side Patriots Radio

"When in the Course of human events it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands which have connected them with another and to assume among the powers of the earth..." and so it began two hundred and forty-four years ago today as the greatest nation the world has ever known was born.

Born out of war yet dedicated to peace, the United States of America changed the world forever with the simple words..."We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness."

The Declaration of Independence...actually called “A Declaration by the Representatives of the United States of America, in General Congress assembled”...announced for all the world to hear that the ragtag American colonies had seceding from the yoke of British rule to become "Free and Independent States, to have full Power to levy War, conclude Peace, contract Alliances, establish Commerce, and to do all other Acts and Things which Independent States may of right do." 

Unanimously approved on July 2nd, 1776, and signed on July 4th by all 56 delegates to the Continental Congress, the colonies now regarded themselves as thirteen newly independent sovereign states...independent states yet united together...and thus a new nation was founded...a Judeo-Christian nation...forever to be known as the United States of America.

Preceded in governance by the Continental Congress...a convention of delegates from each of the thirteen colonies...the Congress met from 1774 to 1789 in three increments, with the first being a call for a convention concerning issues raised about the blockade and the "Intolerable Acts" penalizing Massachusetts. By 1774, Benjamin Franklin was able to convince the colonies to form a representative body, which at first was divided on independence and a break from the Crown. However, in time the new Congress gave their unanimous vote for independence, established a Continental Army, giving command to George Washington.

And while the Continental Congress was waging war with Britain, making a military treaty with France, and funding the war effort with loans and paper money, Richard Henry Lee of Virginia first proposed the idea of succession at the Second Continental Congress. Reading an important resolution that in no uncertain words stated, “Resolved: That these United Colonies are, and of right ought to be, free and independent States, that they are absolved from all allegiance to the British Crown, and that all political connection between them and the State of Great Britain is, and ought to be, totally dissolved.”...the march towards independence began.

Soon after, in August 1775, King George III declared American colonists were “engaged in open and avowed rebellion” as the colonies began pulling back from British rule by taking control of their ports and establishing formal guidelines for creating local governments. A 'Committee of Five'...Thomas Jefferson (who actually drafted the declaration), Benjamin Franklin, John Adams, Roger Sherman and Robert Livingston...was then appointed by the Continental Congress to write the declaration. Formed on June 5th, 1776, the Committee returned to Congress with the completed declaration on July 4th. The committee was disbanded when the declaration was made public on July 5th.

This one document alone changed the course of modern history for its ramifications were heard by all "free men of conscious"...men who now truly understood that when their leaders...when their government...becomes both "tyrannical and abusive"...when their leaders dare violate time and again the rights of the people then the people have the right...actually they have the duty...to revolt and put safeguards into place to protect those rights.

And what was this new nation but an experiment in self-government...an experiment in liberty and in the sovereignty of the people...of people who believed that human equality and liberty should be the rule of law not only for those forever to be known as Americans, but for people everywhere "and that they (must) derive their just powers from the consent of the governed,” meaning 'We the People' through the power of the ballot box.

And with the Constitution defining those beliefs, never forget that our independence and our beliefs were secured for all time by those brave men and women whose blood was spilled all those many years ago.

So as we celebrate the day our great nation was born from the pains of protest against a "tyrannical and abusive" king...a nation unseen in the annals of man...a nation exceptional in concept for its being built upon freedom, justice, and equality for all... know that now the time has come where we must stop those perpetrating the conflicts of conscious by those who are trying to divide our great nation...conflicts courtesy of those enemies within coupled with apathy from the masses. And if our beloved America falls...if our Constitution falls...tyranny and turmoil will become the order of the day not just for our homeland but for the world as well.

But thankfully 'ifs' tend to be supposition alone for history has shown that America will survive because America must survive...and no other option must ever be allowed to exist. And while some try to say that what we thought of as our brightest hours were really not as bright as we thought or that our darkest moments were not as dark as we remember them...the pages of history alone will show the truth, but only with the passage of time. And while our nation continues to move forward by hopefully learning from the lessons of the past, the fact remains that certain folks in every generation...especially the youngest and the most idealistic...continue to think of themselves as being under attack from those whose political ideologies are different than their own.

And while of late it seems that we as a nation are always facing or coping with some sort of crisis or another...whether those crises be manufactured from inside our own ranks or from those looking in from the outside...surviving remains the only option afforded to even those of us patriots who sometimes forget the freedoms our country allows us.

And so America survives and will thankfully continue on simply because 'We the People' demand it be so...and that demand at times might even mean that more blood must be spilled in the name of freedom...blood spilled like it was when America was born...blood spilled when brave patriots fought back against those trying to bring them to their knees.

So my fellow patriots enjoy this day...fly our flag proudly and enjoy America's birthday as freedom rings out from "sea to shining sea"...but never forget our nation's birthing pains for those freedoms we all sometimes take for granted came at a very high price. But know that no matter the obstacles placed in our way America remains a true bastion of freedom...the shining light that draws those whose hope springs eternal and where dreams become the realities of those longing to be free.

Happy 245th Birthday America...May God Bless and protect you...especially during these most trying of times...today, tomorrow, and always.

"When in the Course of human events it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands which have connected them with another and to assume among the powers of the earth..." and so it began two hundred and forty-two years ago today as the greatest nation the world has ever known was born.

Born out of war yet dedicated to peace, the United States of America changed the world forever with the simple words..."We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness."

Op-ed: 
On the Birth of a Nation

By: Diane Sori / The Patriot Factor / Right Side Patriots on CPR Worldwide Media cprworldwidemedia.net

(I was asked to update and rerun my 4th of July op-ed from last year.) 

 

"When in the Course of human events it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands which have connected them with another and to assume among the powers of the earth"...and so it began two hundred and thirty nine years ago today as the greatest nation the world has ever known was born.

Born out of war yet dedicated to peace, the United States of America changed the world forever with the simple words..."We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness."

The Declaration of Independence...actually called “A Declaration by the Representatives of the United States of America, in General Congress assembled”... announced for all the world to hear that the ragtag American colonies had seceding from the yoke of British rule to become "Free and Independent States, to have full Power to levy War, conclude Peace, contract Alliances, establish Commerce, and to do all other Acts and Things which Independent States may of right do." 

Unanimously approved on July 2nd, 1776, and signed on July 4th by all 56 delegates to the Continental Congress, the colonies now regarded themselves as thirteen newly independent sovereign states, thus a new nation was founded...a Judeo-Christian nation...forever to be known as the United States of America.

Preceded in governance by the Continental Congress...a convention of delegates from each of the thirteen colonies...the Congress met from 1774 to 1789 in three increments, with the first being a call for a convention concerning issues raised about the blockade and the 'Intolerable Acts' penalizing Massachusetts. By 1774, Benjamin Franklin was able to convince the colonies to form a representative body, which at first was divided on independence and a break from the Crown. However, in time the new Congress gave their unanimous vote for independence, established a Continental Army, giving command to George Washington.

And while the Continental Congress waged war with Britain, made a military treaty with France, and funded the war effort with loans and paper money, Richard Henry Lee of Virginia first proposed the idea of succession at the Second Continental Congress when he read a resolution that stated, “Resolved: That these United Colonies are, and of right ought to be, free and independent States, that they are absolved from all allegiance to the British Crown, and that all political connection between them and the State of Great Britain is, and ought to be, totally dissolved.”

Soon after, in August 1775, King George III declared American colonists were “engaged in open and avowed rebellion” as the colonies began pulling back from British rule by taking control of their ports and establishing formal guidelines for creating local governments. A 'Committee of Five'...Thomas Jefferson (who actually drafted the declaration), Benjamin Franklin, John Adams, Roger Sherman and Robert Livingston...was then appointed by the Continental Congress to write the declaration. Formed on June 5th, 1776, the Committee returned to Congress with the completed declaration on July 4th. The committee was disbanded when the declaration was made public on July 5th.

This one document changed the course of modern history for its ramifications were heard by all free men of conscious who now understood that when their leaders... when their government...becomes "tyrannical and abusive"...when their leaders violate time and again the rights of the people then the people have the right...have the duty...to revolt and put safeguards in place to protect those rights.

And what was this new nation but an experiment in self-government...an experiment in liberty and in the sovereignty of the people...of people who believed that human equality and liberty should be the rule of law NOT only for those forever to be known as Americans, but for people everywhere "and that they (must) derive their just powers from the consent of the governed,” meaning 'We the People' through the power of the ballot box.

And with the Constitution defining those beliefs, never forget that our independence and our beliefs were secured for all time by those brave men whose blood was spilled all those many years ago.

So today as we celebrate the day our great nation was born from the pains of protest against a "tyrannical and abusive" king...as we celebrate a nation like none the world had seen before...a nation whose founding was built upon the much heralded collective allegiance and dedication to freedom and equality for all...we must stop the downward spiral we seem to be heading on...a spiral that's leading us right into an apathetic dependency on leaders who seem content to strip away from 'We the People' those very "unalienable rights" laid down by our Constitution.

But always remember that above all else America will survive because America must survive...'We the People' demand it even if it means more blood must be spilled in the name of freedom...blood spilled like it was when America was born.

At Easter and Passover...On God, Country, and Obama

By: Diane Sori / The Patriot Factor / Right Side Patriots on CPR Worldwide Media
 

(Author's Note: I have been asked by some of my blog readers to run this Op-ed again as it is as pertinent today as when I wrote it in 2012.)

During this Holy Week for both Christians and Jews, let us remember and honor the freedoms we enjoy as Americans, the rights and privileges we sometimes take for granted, and let us celebrate in the knowledge that we live in the greatest nation the world has ever known. Let us remember our loved ones lost, and pray that our brave men and women in uniform are kept safe and out of harm's way. Let us find comfort in knowing that as we celebrate the Resurrection and the freeing of the Jews from bondage in Egypt, we should rejoice in knowing that our dearly departed loved ones have already been welcomed into God's Kingdom.

I pray that as we Christians and Jews celebrate freedom, restoration, redemption, and resurrection that we see this from both a spiritual and from a here and now perspective. The spiritual is obvious, the here and now not so much so, as our beloved America is at a dangerous crossroads. Do we return to God and the principals our Founding Fathers laid down in the Constitution or do we continue down Obama's path of destruction of all this country was founded upon and all we hold dear. It is up to us, 'We the People,' to choose the path which we will follow.

Our great nation was created with a single document called the Constitution, and we now have a president who has decided that the very document that has given us 224 years of liberty and justice for all, is obsolete, out of date, and no longer relevant in today's so-called global world. We have a president who wants to lead our great republic down a dangerous path towards socialism and lead us into a New World Order headed by a chosen few of the most radical and liberal persons the modern day world has known.

We now have a president whose radical brand of liberalism is so engrained in his very core that he would love to silence, ban and eliminate conservatism at all costs; a president who would love to take control of our country in a way that would make Nazi Germany's SS cringe (starting with abolishing the Second Amendment); a president who would love to abolish God from every aspect of our lives; a president who sees our Constitution as an inconvenience, a barrier that must be removed, as he and his minions spread his message of radically changing America into a socialist nation torn by class warfare and racial division.

We now have a president who wants to change the very foundation upon which our Judeo-Christian nation was built, a president who dishonors and defames the Ten Commandments, the very heart of what we as Christians and Jews believe; a president who mocks our true living God while catering to those who believe in a false god and who want nothing better than to kill us all.

And this brings me back to the words freedom, restoration, redemption, and resurrection. While the religious meaning of those words is known to us believers, those words can also be used to describe the crossroads our beloved America now finds herself at. And it's up to us patriots to restore the freedoms granted to us in the Constitution, to redeem ourselves before God, and to resurrect America to her former glory before it's too late.

I know which path I will take, hopefully you will join me on that same path.

'No-Go' Zones...Coming Soon to a City Near You
By: Diane Sori

“To announce that there must be no criticism of the President, or that we are to stand by the President, right or wrong, is not only unpatriotic and servile, but is morally treasonable to the American public.”
- former President Theodore Roosevelt

Isn't it more than a bit odd that after the Charlie Hebdo targeted assassinations, the thwarted terrorist attacks in Belgium, major European cities seeing armed soldiers on every corner, and as country after country raises their terrorist threat levels almost daily, Europe still has NOT addressed the issue of stopping all muslim immigration into their countries. NOT the way to live folks especially when the solution is so simple...close the borders completely and then round-up the muslims who are there and ship them back to the cesspools they came from.

Easier said than done I guess yet it is the only viable solution to stopping the hell now encasing Europe...a hell soon to be here in America as well because NOT one damn person in power is doing anything to stop it.

And rest assured that coming soon will be America’s own version of Europe's 'No-Go' zones (France itself has 751 of what they call ZUS... 'Sensitive Urban Zones' and the Netherlands has over 40)...basically muslim-only areas within a given city that said host country has relinquished their legal control of and given it over to muslim control. And these European 'No-Go' zones function as microstates complete with sharia religious-law courts (Britain alone has 85 such courts), sharia government, sharia anything but justice, and sharia dictated punishment for perceived crimes that NEVER happened. Remember also that sharia law says that any speech or thought a muslim finds offensive is slanderous, and slander under sharia law is a crime punishable by death...as in the Charlie Hebdo massacre.

And now add in for good measure strict qur'an interpretations so harshly imposed that people are forced to do and say only what the islamists in control say they can do, say, wear, believe, and even think. And with these zones effectively off-limits to all non-muslims, police officers here in America will be as afraid to enter these zones as police officers are in Europe. And with these zones paramount to being urban war zones...any police officers who do enter are routinely pelted with rocks thrown by muslim youth...thrown by muslim thugs.

And know these 'No-Go' zones are of our...the West's...own doing due to political correctness run amok. Minding our political P's and Q's have given muslims the ability to create so-called 'parallel societies' and remain segregated unto themselves rather than becoming integrated into their European host nations society...basically translating into Europe losing its unique identity and dying from multiculturalism because islamic supremacists refuse to assimilate into Western culture...with antagonism towards their host countries always present. Instead they carve out a notch in a chosen neighborhood, and then through intimidation or outright violence, force out those... the infidels...along with what they consider secular values that are NOT acceptable to them...as they deem those values to be man-made laws NOT islamic laws as set down in the (anything but holy) qur'an.

And if it happened Europe it can and...with Obama as our president...will happen here within these last two years he has in office.

And with jihadist terror training camps already in existence and operational across America...and don't think for a minute that they're NOT here... this becomes the islamists logical next step in turning our beloved America into part of their so-wanted worldwide caliphate...and they will do so with Obama's help...of course...as he looks away and does NOTHING to stop these zones from becoming a sad part of America's new reality.

In fact, to some degree these zones are already here...case in point being Dearborn, Michigan, one of the few places in the U.S. where one can actually hear the 'call to prayer' publicly over a loudspeaker. And lest we forget, Dearborn is the home to The Islamic Center of America...the largest mosque in the U.S. to date.

And know that Michigan itself has the largest muslim population in America and the second largest Arab population outside of the Middle East, with Dearborn in specific having the second 'densest' (more people per square mile) Arab community outside of the Middle East. And muslims have immigrated to Dearborn in such large numbers that the city is now roughly 46% muslim (mostly but NOT all shi'ite) leading to what amounts to a cultural invasion of the city to the point where non-muslims are NOT welcome and the non-muslims still living there are treated as second class citizens. And Dearborn is most definitely a precursor...a test case if you will...to an actual 'No-Go' zone being in effect here in our country.

And with pockets of wealthy terrorist groups such as al-Qaeda, Hamas, Hezbollah, and the Muslim Brotherhood fully ensconced in cities all across Michigan know it's just a matter of time before they monetarily outwardly help and encourage Dearborn to officially become America's first 'No-Go' zone.

And with America's politicians, elected officials, and lawyers turning a blind eye to this...as they acquiesce to political correctness once again... they are allowing muslims and terrorist groups such as these to use our Constitution's First Amendment to hide behind as they continue to act, shall we say, very badly. And with Obama now bringing in up to 75,000 Syrian muslim islamists into our country over the next five years, without approval from Congress I might add, the chance that 'No-Go' zones becoming a reality have increased ten-fold. In fact, the Islamic Association of North Texas has plans on the drawing board for a so-called 'Islamic Village Project' to be built in Dallas, Texas. And with the art of distraction being used and honed to a fine art by the main stream media in their effort to force us to look the other way while this and other 'No-Go' zones slowly creep into the fabric of our American society, you just know that if left unchecked the muslims will win by simple default.

And if we allow these muslim barbarians...the true number one threat of our time I might add...to gain and establish 'No-Go' zones here in America we as a Judeo-Christian nation, in a short period of time, will cease to exist. And just like as in Europe it will happen through mass unchecked immigration, through our unsealed southern border, and through the actions of a president who rolls out the welcome mat for them...after all they are his blood brethren.

So the bottom line is this...we must as patriotic Americans NOT only criticize this president but hold his feet to the fire...in his case to the fires of hell...and demand that NOT even one 'No-Go' zone be allowed here in America because one leads to two, two leads to four, and so on down the line. And most importantly we must remove...we must purge... islam from our country...or we will become Europe complete with all the problems they are currently facing. And we must do it now before it's too late...if it's NOT too late already.

On the birth of a nation
By: Diane Sori

 

"When in the Course of human events it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands which have connected them with another and to assume among the powers of the earth"...and so it began two hundred and thirty eight years ago today as the greatest nation the world has ever known was born.

Born out of war yet dedicated to peace, the United States of America changed the world forever with the simple words..."We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness."

The Declaration of Independence...actually called “A Declaration by the Representatives of the United States of America, in General Congress assembled”... announced for all the world to hear that the ragtag American colonies had seceding from the yoke of British rule to become "Free and Independent States, to have full Power to levy War, conclude Peace, contract Alliances, establish Commerce, and to do all other Acts and Things which Independent States may of right do." 

Unanimously approved on July 2nd, 1776, and signed on July 4th by all 56 delegates to the Continental Congress, the colonies now regarded themselves as thirteen newly independent sovereign states, thus a new nation was founded...a Judeo-Christian nation...forever to be known as the United States of America.

Preceded in governance by the Continental Congress...a convention of delegates from each of the thirteen colonies...the Congress met from 1774 to 1789 in three increments, with the first being a call for a convention concerning issues raised about the blockade and the 'Intolerable Acts' penalizing Massachusetts. By 1774, Benjamin Franklin was able to convince the colonies to form a representative body, which at first was divided on independence and a break from the Crown. However, in time the new Congress gave their unanimous vote for independence, established a Continental Army, giving command to George Washington.

And while the Continental Congress waged war with Britain, made a military treaty with France, and funded the war effort with loans and paper money, Richard Henry Lee of Virginia first proposed the idea of succession at the Second Continental Congress when he read a resolution that stated, “Resolved: That these United Colonies are, and of right ought to be, free and independent States, that they are absolved from all allegiance to the British Crown, and that all political connection between them and the State of Great Britain is, and ought to be, totally dissolved.”

Soon after, in August 1775, King George III declared American colonists were “engaged in open and avowed rebellion” as the colonies began pulling back from British rule by taking control of their ports and establishing formal guidelines for creating local governments. A 'Committee of Five'...Thomas Jefferson (who actually drafted the declaration), Benjamin Franklin, John Adams, Roger Sherman and Robert Livingston...was then appointed by the Continental Congress to write the declaration. Formed on June 5th, 1776, the Committee returned to Congress with the completed declaration on July 4th. The committee was disbanded when the declaration was made public on July 5th.

This one document changed the course of modern history for its ramifications were heard by all free men of conscious who now understood that when their leaders... when their government...becomes "tyrannical and abusive"...when their leaders violate time and again the rights of the people then the people have the right...have the duty...to revolt and put safeguards in place to protect those rights.

And what was this new nation but an experiment in self-government...an experiment in liberty and in the sovereignty of the people...of people who believed that human equality and liberty should be the rule of law NOT only for those forever to be known as Americans, but for people everywhere "and that they (must) derive their just powers from the consent of the governed,” meaning 'We the People' through the power of the ballot box.

And with the Constitution defining those beliefs, never forget that our independence and our beliefs were secured for all time by those brave men whose blood was spilled all those many years ago.

So today as we celebrate the day our great nation was born from the pains of protest against a "tyrannical and abusive" king...as we celebrate a nation like none the world had seen before...a nation whose founding was built upon the much heralded collective allegiance and dedication to freedom and equality for all...we must stop the downward spiral we seem to be heading on...a spiral that's leading us right into an apathetic dependency on leaders who seem content to strip away from 'We the People' those very "unalienable rights" laid down by our Constitution.

But always remember that above all else America will survive because America must survive...'We the People' demand it even if it means more blood must be spilled in the name of freedom...blood spilled like it was when America was born.

Mission accomplished...Obama style
By: Diane Sori

“Every person who served in Iraq or Afghanistan never loses that part of them when they come home. It becomes part of their soul.”- former three-star General Mark Hertling

Sometimes reality is cruel but sometimes reality stares us in the face and forces us to face facts, and one of those facts is that it's time we accept...liberal rhetoric aside...that we indeed are at war with islam...all islam...and that thanks to the "absence of conviction" of Barack HUSSEIN Obama we have sadly lost Iraq, as the sustained peace our soldiers fought and died for has NOT come to pass.

When George W. Bush left office the tangible physical war in Iraq had been won so to speak, but now 4,486 American troops have returned home in coffins, three quarters of them killed on Obama's watch. And thanks to Obama, in his role as Commander-in-Chief, forcing our troops to fight politically correct battles for "the hearts and minds" of the enemy instead of fighting those battles to win, there was a major resurgence in violence over this past year across the western province of Anbar, resulting in the black flag of al-Qaeda now flying over government buildings in Fallujah. And as the jihadists declare an Islamic state in a city in one of the most critical areas we fought hard to secure and temper down before Obama's telling the enemy...telling the world...when exactly American forces would be leaving became reality....seeing that flag symbolically stained with the blood of our American heroes flying in victory, sadly proclaims for all to see that our fighting and our dying was for naught.

And it took Obama just five years to lose all the gains we had made in Iraq...for Obama NOT only lost the war...or what he calls 'an overseas contingency'...but he sold out the peace...for that simple black al-Qaeda flag announces to the world the total failure of his policies in Iraq.

And it announces NOT just defeat but now his actions...or lack thereof...spits on the graves of the 3000+ Americans lost on September 11th when that very same al-Qaeda changed America forever. America's enemy...the one's Obama claimed were "decimated and on the run"...were anything but for as they regrouped and grew stronger Barack HUSSEIN Obama...America's very own 'enemy within'... looked away for our enemy is his friend...a friend he gave the chance to just wait it out until we left and then take back what American blood had been spilled for.

And now some are saying...and maybe rightly so...that the war in Iraq was possibly the biggest waste of American lives, American money, and American time in our nation's history. And when you compare Iraq to the aftermath of World War II there is some credence to what those folks are saying.

Remember, when Japan and Germany were occupied after the war the rules we set for the occupation were strictly enforced and the occupation lasted for years, which gave those countries time to restructure themselves to become successful modern nations, something we did NOT do in Iraq or for that fact we are NOT doing now in Afghanistan.

But thanks to the Obama liberals, to the leftists, to the kumbaya Democrats who dared NOT step on muslim toes, all we did when Obama sold us and the Iraqi people out was leave behind arms, equipment, and training programs so that the locals could create a viable fighting force, but we did NOT leave people there to train them, and so now all those arms and equipment are rotting across the landscape of Iraq.

And so what we hoped to win, we actually were destined to lose.

And the very basis for our being destined to lose...besides having a traitor sitting in the White House...is because it was NEVER admitted to...at least NOT publicly...that we are indeed at war with islam for if you do NOT recognize who the enemy is how can you be victorious over them. And like I said in the beginning of this piece we are most assuredly at war with ALL of islam for those who simply follow the tenets of islam cannot be separated from those who commit unspeakable acts in the name of islam. And America's Judeo-Christian mindset cannot fathom nor understand the vileness of those whose very so-called holy book (the qur'an) commands them to kill all who do NOT believe as they do. And it's our total awe of that very unspeakable understanding that prevents us from doing what we all know needs to be done and accepting the fact that our Judeo-Christian America...a nation whose very ideals, values, morals, and beliefs were founded upon the word of the one true living God of the Christians and Jews...can NEVER co-exist in peace with those who relish and welcome death over life.

So sadly, something deep in our hearts we knew was coming but dared NOT speak of, al-Qaeda flags now fly over both Fallujah and Ramadi. And for those who fought the good fight...for those who came home damaged in body and mind...that reality is hard to accept as it should be.

“It brings back a lot of anger,” said U.S. Marine Staff Sgt. Paul, who served in the Iraqi cities of Fallujah and Ramadi. “I feel like it’s been a big waste of time. It’s kind of like, why the hell did all my buddies die there for."

And how right he is for because of Barack HUSSEIN Obama and his misguided allegiances and policies we have lost Iraq...and probably will lose Afghanistan too...as our brave troops are NOT returning home as the victors they should be but as those in defeat...and that is something that this most miserable of presidents must be both called to task for and made to answer for...period.

Muslims in America...like oil and water they just don't mix                                                      
By: Diane Sori 

Yesterday I posted this picture and it really got me thinking as there is much truth in these numbers beyond their numerical value, for what these numbers indicate is stealth jihad going on right before our eyes.

Now here's a scary thought that we Westerners must face...it's been predicted that if unchecked, by the year 2030, muslims will make up more than one quarter of the world's projected population of 8.3 billion. One-quarter of this entire planet will be muslim in a mere 15 years or so...8.3 billion people will be muslim when in 2010 there were 1.57 billion muslims...and I cannot stress those numbers enough for if that does NOT scare the hell out of you NOTHING will for those numbers alone will assure them victory over their enemies.

And we infidels...we Westerners...we Americans...are their enemy.

And these simple numbers tell you that in time Israel will easily be overrun as will most of Europe for the ever increasing muslim population continues to grow unchecked, and with those sheer numbers alone they will be able to do what all the wars throughout all of muslim history have failed to do...eradicate the infidels without them needing to lift a finger to do so.

In Great Britain alone, almost one in ten people will be muslim by 2030, because of lax immigration policies (one in four immigrants to Great Britain is currently muslim) and sky high muslim birth rates. And this will translate in less than 15 years into Great Britain...America's mother country as some like to say...having more muslims than the entire Arab nation of Kuwait. Scary huh...

And at the current rate of muslim immigration combined with their notoriously high birth rates, once secular France...the country who has always shied away from religion in government...will become a muslim majority country within 23 years...complete with prayer rugs in every home, burqas on its women, and a mosque on every corner.

So what of our beloved America...separated by oceans but with a muslim loving if NOT outright muslim president. Our beloved America could see 'Yankee Doodle Dandy' replaced by the muslim call to prayer as the number of muslims in America is expected to double within the next 20 years up from today's 2.6 million to 6.2 million or more.

Talk about the need to seal our borders and seriously limit...if NOT outright halt...muslim immigration into our country. And please do NOT dare call me a racist for thinking this...as some on the left and maybe even some on the right will most assuredly do...for being a muslim is NOT about nationality for anyone, NO matter their race or ethnicity, can become a muslim as all the word 'muslim' means is a follower of islam and NOTHING more.

And while these numbers in and of themselves pose a danger to Western culture and society, let's NOT forget that once a country's population numbers start to shift in their favor, muslims will begin to 'legally' takeover said country's government by slowly but steadily getting their people elected. And when that happens they will start introducing sharia compliant legislation...which will probably start with removing the penalties for 'honor killings' and mandating that burqa 'garbage bags' become the rule of dress for all women.

And while we as Americans can do NOTHING to stop the muslim immigration into the European countries, we sure as hell can stop it here. With the vast majority of Americans rightfully having an unfavorable view of both islam and muslims...as they simply do NOT fit into the fabric of our American society...it's way past time to understand the whys...and the whys do indeed go back to the word 'religion' and the practices that word encompasses.

The right to freedom of religion was indeed a basis for the founding of our country. But freedom to practice one's religion does NOT mean the freedom to have some in power force 'We the People' to accept a barbaric perverted cult nor does it mean that we must comply to that said cult when it goes against the very founding of our country as a Judeo-Christian nation. In fact, it means that we as Americans must do any and everything in our power to rid our country of any and all dangers put upon it, even if that means stopping and turning back those who practice said cult from ever reaching our shores.

Remember, islam is NOT a religion but is a political system that hides behind the guise of calling itself a religion...a political cult and NOTHING more. So by denying immigration status to those from muslim countries, we are NOT discriminating against those who practice a certain religion...which would be against our Constitution...but we are stopping them from coming here because what they practice is NOT a religion but is a political ideology based on the mindset of terrorism as a legitimate answer to any perceived problems and that is NOT acceptable in America...period.

Religion...legitimate recognized religion here in America is based upon a set of beliefs, values, morals, ideals, and practices following the teachings of God the Father, Jesus the Son, and the Abrahamic God of the Jews...in other words religion in America is based upon the one true living and loving God of the Christians and Jews. Religion in America is NOT based upon the rantings of a delusional madman who expounded jihad...just another name for terrorism by the way...and wrote down in his anything but a holy book...the qur'an...at least 109 verses that call for muslims to 'war with nonbelievers for the sake of Islamic rule'...verses that are part of the eternal, unchanging, unforgiving word of the false god allah.

So sealing our borders to muslim immigrants is in NO way discriminating against them for their belief in islam, but is stopping them from entering or country because by their very following of islam as laid down in the qur'an they are sworn and commanded to kill all those who do NOT believe as they do...meaning almost all of the American people.

And last time I checked killers were denied access to our country
.
And even if all I have said is still NOT enough for you to understand why muslim immigration into America must be stopped then how about this...just the fact that the qur'an states that there shall be NO law higher than sharia law, and with the Constitution being the law of our land, that alone should be enough to make anybody see that islam and its muslim followers are simply the diametrical opposite of what is compatible with our American way of life.

And to those who spout the 'coexist' nonsense...and to those who tried to blend Christianity and islam into the kumbaya, touchy-feely abomination known as Chislam...I say wake-up...for God's sake please wake-up for we CANNOT coexist in peace with people commanded by their (un)holy book to kill us all. Coexist is NOTHING but taqiyya in action, and if we as Americans dare to fall for that then indeed all will be lost.

So seal the borders to all muslim immigration and seal them now before our beloved America becomes just like Europe but on a larger scale.
