This video could serve as a nice warning to America about what happens when you allow massive immigration, encourage non-assimilation, and indeed, expect the host country to adapt to the foreigners rather than the other way around.  It’s a sign of wisdom to be able to learn from the mistakes of others, but there is [...]

Taxpayers Funding Distasteful Smithsonian Christmas Exhibit

CNSNews reported yesterday “the taxpayer funded Smithsonian’s National Portrait Gallery is hosting an exhibit during this Christmas season featuring images of an ant-covered Jesus, male genitals, naked brothers kissing, men in chains, Ellen DeGeneres grabbing her breasts, and a painting the Smithsonian itself describes in the show’s catalog as “homoerotic.””

In many ways this so-called [...]

Pastor Terry Jones Should Probably Cancel Koran Burnings – He Did

There is really no need for Pastor Terry Jones to burn copies of the Koran on the anniversary of 9/11. On the anniversary of the greatest terror attack on U.S. soil, one can certainly sympathize with the sentiment, but it’s needlessly provocative and is equally unkind to non-terrorist Muslims.
Somewhat similar to the proposed building of [...]

Supporters of the Ground Zero Mosque are Wrong

Apologists, including the President, have tried to make the case that it is we who are being intolerant and inconsistent with our own First Amendment. But there are a few problems with this argument:
1.) We aren’t dealing with just any religion, but one whose beliefs comprise a complete socio-political system that is hostile to our [...]

Insult to Injury: President Obama Strongly Supports Building of Ground Zero Mosque

President Obama finally decided to take a position on the Ground Zero Mosque, and as expected, he sided against America. Speaking at a White House dinner celebrating the Islamic holy month of Ramadan, the president strongly approved of building a mosque near ground zero claiming the country’s founding principles demanded it. But I can find [...]

Ground Zero Mosque: Hidden Meaning for America, But Not Islam

by SteveK @ Tuesday, July 27th, 2010. Tags: , , , ,

Westerners who defend the building of the controversial mosque at ground zero do so on the grounds of religious freedom. Such First Amendment absolutism in the face of a deceptive religion whose beliefs are totally antithetical to our own, ultimately works against the West and aids in our own demise. American values such as liberty [...]

Shameful Media Once Again Humanizes Terrorists

A recent article in The Associated Press highlighted the troubles of Faisal Shahzad, the Times Square bomber, citing how “his life seemed to unravel.”
“He left a job at a global marketing firm he’d held for three years, lost his home to foreclosure and moved into an apartment in an impoverished neighborhood in Bridgeport.”
Of course, the [...]

In this last installment we get to the schools, and thus the heart of the matter as to why so many Americans are unfamiliar with the information provided in parts 1 and 2. The education system in this country is to blame for whitewashing Islam with political correctness in order to fit the overwhelmingly liberal [...]

In part two, we delve further into why some Muslims become suicide bombers or ‘martyrs’. An article titled Jihad, Martyrdom, and the Torments of the Grave, by Raymond Ibrahim, explains some of the more obscure (in the West) but powerful motivations for Islamists. Original posted HERE.
Why do some Muslims become suicide bombers or “martyrs”? In [...]

Understanding Radical Islam – Part 1

Filed under Culture, Education, History, Religion

For too long have Western apologists, primarily in academia and the media, presented the American people with a sugarcoated version of Islam. One of their main arguments is that the religion has been hijacked, but this is actually false. They also claim that terrorists are poor people pushed into extremism, which is also false, as [...]
