ENEMY ABROAD, ENEMY WITHIN (Part V)

 

PART V: Our Greatest Weapon


Our Greatest Weapon is our Judeo-Christian heritage. A stroll through history to learn about our forefathers is an enlightening key to how we must wage the battle against the onlsaught of our enemies.

· Thomas Jefferson worried that the Courts would overstep their authority and instead of interpreting the law would begin making law....An oligarchy....The rule of few over many-

· James Madison is quoted, "I believe there are more instances of the abridgment of freedom of the people by gradual and silent encroachments by those in power than by violent and sudden usurpations."

· The American Bible Society was started by an act of Congress (that's not an easy task!) and John Adams (our second president), served as its first leader.

· Fifty-two of the 55 founders of the Constitution were members of the established orthodox churches in the colonies-Congregationalist-7, Deist-1, Dutch Reformed-2, Episcopalian-26, Lutheran-1, Methodist-2, Presbyterian-11, Quaker-3, Roman Catholic-2

How do we fight the battle?

· Vote everyday, not once every 2 to 4 years. Vote with your voice and your wallet. Your elected leaders hear from special interest groups and lobbyists everyday, they need to hear from us everyday.

· Treat the Old Media with impunity. Hold them to standards of honesty, integrity, and accountability. Email them, call them, whatever you can do. Support news sources that are working FOR America, not FOR the terrorists. One of those tremendous sources is Free Republic.

· Keep yourself informed on a daily basis of not only the big events, but also the smaller movements ebbing away at our society and its core values.

· Arm yourself with the truth about history, events and the politicians spinning lies throughout the old media outlets. A weekly MUST read can be found HERE. Take this knowledge out into the world educating others.

· Be educated about all the candidates in primaries. This is very important. I have yet to see anyone elected become MORE conservative. They all seem to think MORE government control is a GOOD thing once THEY become the government.

· Support our troops and our intelligence secrets. Do not sit idly by as newspapers publish details of our efforts to battle the enemy. Demand the people charged with the duty to protect our citizens and our constitution who leak this information be brought to justice and held fully accountable. Start an effort to mail our troops letters and goodies and help tell their stories. Support their loved ones left behind trying to support families alone.


The terrorist greatest fear is our resolve. Remember these words:

President Ronald Reagan:

"Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction. We didn't pass it to our children in the bloodstream. It must be fought for, protected, and handed on for them to do the same, or one day we will spend our sunset years telling our children and our children's children what it was once like in the United States where men were free."

ENEMY ABROAD, ENEMY WITHIN (Part IV)

 

PART IV: More Than Osama

The most obvious enemy is Osama bin Laden and the Muslim extremists. But we need to take a deeper look at history before we can understand the biggest threats of the Enemy Abroad.

Originally, Osama's reasons for the 9/11 attacks were aimed at getting US troops out of Saudi Arabia. He needed this goal accomplished in order to reach his ultimate goal of overthrowing the Saudi government. In Osama's pre-election video, Osama cited a different reason.

"The events that affected my soul in a direct way started in 1982 when America permitted the Israelis to invade Lebanon and the American Sixth Fleet helped them in that. This bombardment began and many were killed and injured and others were terrorised and displaced........And that day, it was confirmed to me that oppression and the intentional killing of innocent women and children is a deliberate American policy. Destruction is freedom and democracy, while resistance is terrorism and intolerance."

Two things to note here. Osama cashed in on the historic Arab Radical's desire of destroying Israel. There is no doubt in my mind that Osama has always embraced the destruction of Israel but that is not why he attacked the USA. His true intention for attacking America were entirely more self-centered. Osama has always been all about HIS power and self agrandizement. Osama, like other foes of the USA, knows the most effective way to destroy America is by gaining support inside the USA. Like many Anti American forces, he witnessed the way the Vietnames exploited the American Left against its own society during the Vietnam War. Osama is attempting to exploit the Palestinian's claim of "victim" status. He knows that the American Left is predisposed to give self proclaimed "Victims" anything they demand. In truth, giving the “Palestinians” a "state" of their own would only evaporate the true goal of the radical Arab world, which is to destroy Israel. If their sincere desire was to give Palestine a state of their own, they would already have one.  They have had at least two chances.

· On November 29, 1947, the U.N. General Assembly by a two-thirds vote (33 to 13 with Britain and nine others abstaining) passed Resolution 181. Dividing Palestine into two states, one Jewish and one Arab. The Jewish community of Palestine accepted these terms. Judea, Samaria, the Gaza Strip and Jerusalem were not included for the Jewish state. The Arab national movement in Palestine, as well as all the Arab states, turned down the offer. They demanded the entire country for themselves and threatened to use force. If they accepted the U.N. proposal in 1947, the Palestinians would have their own Arab state (covering an area much larger than the West Bank and Gaza). Instead, they launched a war to destroy the new Jewish state.

· Arafat walked away from the offer of a Palestinian State in 2000 during talks at Camp David with President Clinton. All he had to do was declare an end to conflict and agree to make no future claims on Israel.

It is important to remember these facts. There is a distinction between Palestine having a state of their own and the annihilation of Israel. There is also a distinction between the hijacking of Islam in order to further their desire to destroy Israel. There is a difference between the Palestinians having their own nation and Osama's stated desire to take over Saudi Arabia. Once we understand the clear difference between the stated propaganda aims and the real aims of our enemies, we realize how our enemy is bigger than just Islamic Fanatacism.

Take note of a few things. Saudi Arabia once saw Saddam as its biggest threat. They then realized that Osama was interested in ruling their country. Now Saudi Arabia views Iran as the new threat to their power. (wonder where Osama is?) America not only protects Israel, but we were also protecting Saudi Arabia. Osama's beginning rumblings were all about getting the US military off of Saudi soil. The hatred of Israel has merely become the tool used to recruit people to become suicide bombers.

The history is clear. It is easy to see, easy to follow, and easy to figure out. The UN leaders know these facts. Russia, China, Germany, etc, all understand full well what is going on. They are the "appeasers"- the "enablers" of terror. They will allow terror to flourish as long as they can. The media, in lockstep, has become the life support for terror. It all revolves around the hatred and resentment of our success and greatness. It is imperative that we not only understand the intentions of the world community, it is also crucial that we stand tall for our ideals.

Our biggest weakness is our goodwill and desire to be "liked." Success and survival is achieved by RESPECT, not cuddly friends. Our goodwill needs to be practiced on a personal level in the private sectors of life, not on the political fore or as a governmental foreign policy. Our enemies understand this and have us pegged for destruction as we refuse to accept this reality.

It is easy to see in the media how we are being blamed for the battle right now in Israel. It is also clear when one looks at history and recent events that the old Russia is still alive and well. The KGB is now sitting on the throne of the Tsars, shaking hands with our President. Under the veil of a "New Russia", they are planning our demise. The world community is working in concert to bring us down. We are the only real obstacle to world domination by the elitist liberals who seek government control over the common people. Russia is the key here. We need to not allow the media or the rest of the world to distract us from what is really going on. My suggestion:

President Bush needs to sit down with Putin armed with a big fat folder full of history and intelligence, along with the long list of Russia's actions of recent. He needs to look Putin in the eye and say- "Lookie here Putz Face. I don't expect you to back up all our national interests. But I will be damned if I am going to pretend that I don't notice that you are systematically making every move you can to undermine and weaken our national SECURITY. Now- I am going to give you about 15 minutes to pray on it, flip a coin, whatever you want to do to help make up your little mind. But at the end of that 15 minutes- you are going to look me in the eye and give me one word. Just one. Either 'Friend' or 'Foe.' Okay?" Then Bush needs to set a timer on his watch, lean back in his chair, kick his boots up on the table, tip his cowboy hat, put a long stalk of hay in his mouth, and rest his hands behind his neck.

Tomorrow we will talk about our GREATEST WEAPON in this fight for our existence.

ENEMY ABROAD, ENEMY WITHIN (Part III)

 

ENEMY ABROAD, ENEMY WITHIN

PART III: The Attack From Within


The terrorists enemies of the US  and their many attacks, such as 9/11 and the USS Cole, are open threats to us. We have a President dedicated to crushing the terrorists. That focus and determination is vital to survival. Hesitation and equivocations in the strategy of confronting terror will only lead to more terror.

Our enemies see the key to weakening America is to undermine the very things that have made America a powerful nation. America has been founded on the ideals of a just and faithful nation. Our forefathers fought against Great Britain, their own motherland, because they recognized Great Britain's continued control us would significantly limit our freedoms. The pioneers of our country understood the meaning of "The Land of Opportunity." Notice the key word here is opportunity. Recently, we have started to adopt the notion of "the land of ENTITLEMENT. This mind set will only lead to a welfare state (socialism/communism), instead of preserving the very philosophy that lead us to greatness.

If you read the Communist Goals yesterday, the picture is clear.

The enemy fronts:

Education: (these are numbered in correlation to the original list entered into the Congressional Record in 1963.)

· 17) Get control of the schools. Use them as transmission belts for Socialism, and current Communist propaganda. Soften the curriculum. Get control of teachers associations. Put the party line in text books.

· 18) Gain control of all student newspapers

· 19) Use student riots to foment public protests against programs or organizations which are under Communist attack.

· 28) Eliminate prayer or any phase of religious expression in the schools on the grounds that it violates the principle of "separation of church and state"

· 29) Discredit the American Constitution by calling it inadequate, old fashioned, out of step with modern needs, a hindrance to cooperation between nations on a worldwide basis.

· 30) Discredit the American founding fathers. Present them as selfish aristocrats who had no concern for the "common man".

· 31) Belittle all forms of American culture and discourage the teaching of American history on the ground that it was only a minor part of "the big picture:" Give more emphasis to Russian history since the Communists took over.

· 41) Emphasize the need to raise children away from the negative influence of parents. Attribute prejudices, mental blocks and retarding of children to suppressive influence of parents.

Some of these have already been accomplished, and the rest are rampantly taking hold on American psyche. Much of this has been allowed to happen because we were not aware of the plan of attack!

Media: (again, numbered accordingly)

· 20) Infiltrate the press. Get control of book review assignments, editorial writing, policymaking positions.

· 21) Gain control of key positions in radio, TV & motion pictures.

· 25) Break down cultural standards of morality by promoting pornography, and obscenity in books, magazines, motion pictures, radio and TV.

· 26) Present Homosexuality, degeneracy, and promiscuity as "normal, natural, and healthy".

· 42) Create the impression that violence and insurrection are legitimate aspects of the American tradition; that students and special interest groups should rise up and make a "united force" to solve economic, political, or social problems.

Culture:

· 22) Continue discrediting American culture by degrading all form of artistic expression. An American Communist cell was told to "eliminate all good sculpture from parks and buildings", substitute shapeless, awkward, and meaningless forms.

· 23) Control art critics and directors of art museums. " Our plan is to promote ugliness, repulsive, meaningless art".

· 27) Infiltrate the churches and replace revealed religion with "social" religion. Discredit the Bible and emphasize the need for intellectual maturity, which does not need a "religious crutch"

· 36) Infiltrate and gain control of more unions.

· 37) Infiltrate and gain control of big business.

· 39) Dominate the psychiatric profession and use mental health laws as a means of gaining coercive control over those who oppose Communist goals.

· 40) Discredit the family as an institution. Encourage promiscuity and easy divorce.

Legal System:

· 16) Use technical decisions of the courts to weaken basic American institutions, by claiming their activities violate civil rights.

· 12) Resist any attempt to outlaw the Communist Party.

· 24) Eliminate all laws governing obscenity by calling them "censorship" and a violation of free speech and free press.

· 33) Eliminate all laws or procedures, which interfere with the operation of the Communist apparatus.

· 38) Transfer some of the powers of arrest from the police to social agencies. Treat all behavioral problems as psychiatric disorders which no one but psychiatrists can understand or treat.

· 14) Continue giving Russia access to the US Patent Office.

Politics:

· 15) Capture one or both of the political parties in the US.

· 10) Allow all Soviet Satellites individual representation in the UN.

· 35) Discredit and eventually dismantle the FBI.

· 29) Discredit the American Constitution by calling it inadequate, old fashioned, out of step with modern needs, a hindrance to cooperation between nations on a worldwide basis.

· 7) Grant recognition of Red China, and admission of Red China to the UN.

· 1) US acceptance of coexistence as the only alternative to atomic war

· 2) US willingness to capitulate in preference to engaging in atomic war.

· 3) Develop the illusion that total disarmament by the US would be a demonstration of "moral strength".

· 4) Permit free trade between all nations regardless of Communist affiliation and regardless of whether or not items could be used for war.

· 5) Extension of long term loans to Russia and Soviet Satellites.

· 6) Provide American aid to all nations regardless of Communist domination.

· 9) Prolong the conferences to ban atomic tests because the US has agreed to suspend tests as long as negotiations are in progress.

Some of these "Goals" actually repeat themselves and overlap into more than one area. The battle ground is wide and vast. It will take awareness, vigilance and resolve to defeat the attempt to bring us down from within. As one of the most subtle examples, look at the first item listed (#16) under the Legal System heading. The first thing that came to my mind was the Boy Scouts of America. The Boy Scouts is one of the most docile, yet AMERICAN organizations we have, yet they are being vilified and attacked by the ACLU (with the help of the media) relentlessly. Do the Boy Scouts pose a threat to American Civil Liberties? Good grief! In efforts to be "politically correct" we sit idly by, not wanting to "offend" anyone, and just let it happen.

Take time today and let this sink in. When you watch the news or read the paper, start noticing the wording of stories, and the choices made on which stories to cover. Somehow, the media feels the need to crucify our brave soldiers before all the facts are in (or refuse to present ALL the facts), while aiding in creating excuses for beheadings, torture, and the mutilation of those giving their lives for Freedom. The goal is to make us believe it is all the United States fault terror exists and that we created these monsters. They are victims, driven to extremes in a desperate effort to protect their country, and their "freedom of religion." What the media keeps forgetting to mention, is that their barbaric behavior is a result of years of hate teaching by their "state-run education system" and their "religion" is willing to execute young girls for having the audacity to get raped!

To the Media, terrorist groups has become a sort of political party,a special interest group, and a protected class fighting for their civil liberties all rolled into one. The media and liberal political leaders have become corrupt lobbyists for the terrorists groups. YOU are the VOTER! MAKE YOUR VOTE COUNT!

Tomorrow we will take a look at the enemies abroad along with their motives, and tactics.

ENEMY ABROAD, ENEMY WITHIN (Part II)

 

ENEMY ABROAD, ENEMY WITHIN

PART II: The Paper Tiger

If you have not read yesterday's post
(PART I), please read it before you proceed. It is very important to put all of this in context and go through this step by step in order for our fight against the enemy to be successful.

The image of the Paper Tiger has been created by our own people and our own government, but the media has been the catalyst. Hiding truth and exploiting the emotions of the American people has become a mission. By selective reporting of facts, knowing distortions, and by highlighting selected issues the media has actively forwarded the agenda of America's enemies. The enemy within is not only impossible to recognize by his/her lack of a uniform but they are also protected by our laws. Our enemies have done their homework. They know more about our system, how it works, and how to use it to their advantage than most of us realize. The inability of most Americans to understand the true meaning of sacrifice is our greatest weakness. Our political system has become the enemy’s strategic infiltration and uninformed voters are our greatest infection. I am not suggesting we change our system of democracy. I am suggesting we WAKE UP and educate ourselves! The lies and cover-ups of our media have been our enemy’s battlefield and best resource. (Thank God for "alternative" media sources!) Most people would expect a litany of military defeats to exploit a country’s weakness. It is not a lack of military strength that endangers us, but rather American's weak stomach for war.

It is the American gullibility and willingness to participate in class warfare (poor hate rich, corporate greed, etc.) that is used against us for those seeking power and our destruction. As a civilized nation we have a natural desire to be sympathetic for the poor and oppressed. Americans have always been in the fore front of helping those in need. This may be a virtuous moral value, but the practice of such compassion through government rather than individuals puts us in grave danger of becoming a socialist state. Socialism is the gateway to communism. The roadmap for this was published, yes actually published, in 1958. The book was The Naked Communist by W. Cleon Skousen. This book lists the Communist Goals to make America fall from within. The list was actually entered into the Congressional Record by Albert Herlong, Jr.(a Floridian who served in Congress from 1949-1963). Many of the 45 goals have already been accomplished, and many more were actually part of the campaign for 2004.

The next example of the creation of the Paper Tiger may be a little extreme in wording; it states America is already a communist state. While I do not believe this to be factual, it does make a great case for just how subtle the indoctrination of communist dogmas has been implemented. The Ten Planks of the Communist Manifesto has, in some ways, been implemented already. Strictly as an example of how the control of government gets tighter and tighter, I am including this link to show you how gradually this occurs. To understand what is taking place we must take a clear look at our history. (The Truth about FICA and SS)

I challenge you to print a copy of the Communist Goals. Now take a yellow highlighter and highlight those already being accomplished. Then take a different color highlighter and highlight those that were on the list of issues during this last election, and daily trumpeted in the media today.

Ask yourself why the list of Communist Goals and the Ten Planks of the Communist Manifesto are not common knowledge. Why is this not taught in our schools? Why is the media not warning us of the methodical march into Socialism/Communism? The media does not reflect the feelings and attitudes of the people. The media has its own agenda and thirst for power. Their coverage and portrayal of events is a direct result of their agenda and lack of American ideals and values. This has been possible because we, the average American, have let ourselves get too "busy". We have been too lazy to bother questioning what they sell us. Americans do not spend the effort to "fact check" the information we are fed everyday. We take for granted that we will never lose our power to govern and are blind to the fact that we are no longer a nation governed by the people. We are now a nation where politicians and media have joined forces and school systems have become the front lines.

Once you see the pieces of the puzzle put together, it is startling. How did we miss this? How did we not see this coming? Currently, there is a movement to embrace the likes of Fidel Castro, heroic portrayals of Yasser Arafat, and today we are told how “charitable” Hezbollah is to poor widows. (pay no attention to the fact that they are widows because their husbands blew themselves up in order to kill innocent children and others on a bus or eating pizza) There have been claims that it is "morally right" to disarm, in order to "show strength" and "set an example" for the rest of the world. There have been great efforts made to discredit the traditional family, belittle the Judea-Christian Values we were founded upon as a "religious crutch", and to promote the UN as the great hope of the future. These are only a few on the list of Communist Goals.

Stop making excuses! Start paying attention to what your government is doing, how they are doing it, and for Pete’s sake- take action. The War on Terror is being fought on the battle fields by our soldiers. Do not let them die in vain. WE have a ROLE in this fight.

Tomorrow we will begin outlining the many fronts and faces of the enemy.

Until then, let me leave you with this quote from Edmund Burke. "The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil, is for a good man to do nothing."

ENEMY ABROAD, ENEMY WITHIN

PART I: Knowing the Enemy


This entire week will be devoted to the importance of defining the enemy we face, understanding the enemy, and our role in defeating the enemy. We DO have not only a role, but a duty to act against the enemy in order to protect America, and freedom in the world as a whole. Be sure to not miss any part of this week's journey to victory. The time of just discussing the issues at the water-cooler is over. Talking amongst friends who think and believe like we do is not going to solve the problems we face. Gathering in small groups to vent our frustration, much like support group meetings, may make us feel better and let us know we are not alone, but it will never achieve the vital need to eradicate the enemy and ultimately protect the future of America and its fight for freedom. Time to act folks. We need to be vigilant, determined, and purposeful in our actions.

The enemy has many fronts. How do we fight this enemy? The only way to fight the enemy is to know who they are, what motivates them, and what tactics they have, do, and are willing to use. As in any war, the greatest advantage is to know the enemy’s plan of attack. Once we understand them, we can prepare the counterattack. We also need to know what they think our reaction will be, and make changes accordingly, in order to make their plans fail.

The Enemy 101:

  • Step 1: What motivates them? Answer, the destruction of Israel and the Jews. This is where America becomes enemy number one. In reality, their number one enemy is NOT Israel, it is the United States of America. Why? Without America’s support, they can AND WILL destroy Israel. The claim of many “representatives” of the enemy is that the attacks and hatred of the US is due to their “Middle East Policy.” You know, the policy of ensuring that Israel is protected and allowed to exist.
  • Step 2: Who is the Enemy? Those that want to destroy Israel. (See how simple this really is?) So, who wants to destroy Israel? Basically all of the Middle East and ANY Muslim Extremists (no matter where they may live). Now this is where things get a little more complicated. We do have other enemies. They may not want to KILL all of us, but they certainly resent our power and authority and want to see us weakened so they may gain more power. This is what motivates other countries to join with the “original” enemy. This would include countries like Russia, France, and Germany. Strangely enough, this also tends to bleed over into some of our very own citizens. The bleed over occurs due to those that immigrate here for either business reasons or for education. Some are just visiting, while others are firmly planted here. Even more bleed over occurs when we accept the reality that there are “authentic” Americans who also resent our power in the world. Then of course we have the "unintentional" enemies. These are people or countries that either just do not comprehend how dangerous the enemy is, or those that do understand and have chosen to appease the enemy in an effort to protect itself. Those who are appeasing are not enemies that deserve any harsh treatment from us in any way, they just merely need to understand that if we fall, no one will be left to protect them, and their short-term "friendship" will certainly end badly. This explains the great divide within America, and the ability of the enemy to attack on several fronts.
  • Step 3: What is their plan of attack? The enemy has done their homework. They realize the odds of America being defeated militarily, in a “face-to-face” fight, are more than just unlikely. They also understand the way to defeat America is from within. The history of America, and understanding the inner workings of American politics and culture, has given them the information they need to defeat us. The only way to change American policy in the Middle East is through the people of America. Osama has many times referred to America as the “Paper Tiger.” This term is a reflection of the image we have shown them. Our military is the tiger, yet our citizens can and have made the tiger appear impudent to the Middle East. They have proven over and over the lengths they are willing to go to, and the depths they are willing to stoop. The onslaught of innocents is meant to prove this, and does. Even though the President is the Commander and Chief, it is the citizens of America that either make or break his job security, and the citizens are influenced by the media. What this means to the enemy is that the only way to change American policy in the Middle East is to either assassinate the President, (which is not only very difficult, but it also does not ensure that the President’s replacement will actually change this policy) or influence the American people to change their policy through elections.


Tomorrow we will take the journey into understanding how we gained the image of a “Paper Tiger,” and the players from “within” that helped to create this image. Once we take this journey, we will begin to outline the enemy’s many fronts. They have a short-term and a long-term plan. Then we will begin analyzing the roles of the enemy’s “helper countries,” the media, and the “bleed-overs” in our country. Lastly, we will lie out a plan of how to resist this enemy and defeat it with both long-term and short-term plans. This plan will include an intellectual understanding, preparing ourselves mentally, and literal actions we must take to win this war.

Be sure to “tune in” all week. It could be vital to the future of you, your children, and the survival of freedom in the world, as we know it.

Legacy of Terror

 Six years ago this month, the world was warned about what was coming.  Amidst the raging battle in the Middle East, I thought it necessary to give a brief history lesson.  We need to face this enemy NOW, once and for all.  Punting the ball down the field of time for others to deal with in order to avoid the tough plays doesn't work.  It makes the violence worse.  This isn't about land, it is about hate, and it always has been.


This is what the MSM will not tell you about Yasser Arafat.

The Legacy of a Terrorist:
  • He was born in Egypt, as Yasser Abdul-Ra'ouf Qudwa Al-Husseini. In attempts to legitimize himself as a true Palestinian, Yasser claimed he was born in Jerusalem.
  • In fact, Ian Pacepa, a former Romanian intelligence official, has revealed that the KGB had trained him at its Balashikha special-ops school east of Moscow and in the mid-1960s decided to groom him as the future PLO leader. The KGB first destroyed Arafat's official birth records in Cairo Egypt, and then replaced them with fictitious documents (sounds like Mary Mapes and Dan Rather antics) stating that he had been born in Jerusalem and viola! Yasser was now a Palestinian by birth.
  • The KGB then went to work on Arafat's four-page tract called "Falastinuna" (Our Palestine), and transformed it into a 48-page monthly magazine for the Palestinian terrorist organization al-Fatah. Arafat had headed al-Fatah since 1957. The KGB distributed the magazine around the Arab world and in West Germany, where many Palestinian students were seeking an education.
  • Arafat was an undercover operative for the KGB and received much support from other KGB puppets such as Egyptian ruler Gamal Abdel Nasser (who proposed Yasser to be the Chairman of the PLO in 1967).
  • In 1969, it was the KGB who prompted Arafat to declare war on American "imperial-Zionism" during the first summit of the Black Terrorist International, a neo-Fascist pro-Palestine organization financed by the KGB and Libya's Moammar Gadhafi.
  • Yasser claimed to be the one to come up with the "imperial-Zionism" strategy to attack the US, but this was actually a favorite tool of Russian intelligence to feed ethnic hatred. The KGB regarded anti-Semitism and anti-imperialism as a valuable instrument in furthering anti-Americanism.
  • Arafat also tried to claim that through his mother, he was related to the "Grand Mufti," Haj Amin al-Husseini. Haj Amin was anti-British and anti-Jewish. He engineered riots against the Jewish people and actually met with Hitler in November of 1941. Palestinian historian Said Aburish, has disputed any relation between al-Husseini and Arafat.
  • In 1957, Yasser helped in the founding of Fatah, an organization dedicated to the establishment of an independent Palestinian state in place of Israel and Jordan (i.e., historic Palestine).
  • Fatah began carrying out terrorist attacks on Israeli targets. They received much of their support from Syria.
  • On March 18, 1968, Fatah attacked a school bus full of children, killing two and wounding 28. Israel dropped leaflets in the Jordanian city of Karameh (where Fatah has established its base) three days later, urging civilians to evacuate as they prepared to retaliate.
  • Once the attack ensued, Arafat fled. He continued terrorist activities that lead to over 1,500 dead and wounded by the end of the year.
  • Arafat had set up a "state within a state" in Jordan and on September 12, 1970, Arafat's Palestinian terrorists hijacked 3 planes, landed them in Jordan, and blew them up. King Hussein responded by declaring martial law and civil war ensued. Arafat fled to Syria and then to Lebanon.
  • Once in Lebanon, Arafat began to undermine the central government of that country.
  • In September of 1972, an arm of Fatah, known as Black September (named after the 1970 hijacking stunt), murdered 11 Israeli athletes at the Munich Olympic Games.
  • Arafat's PLO helped destabilize Lebanon and contributed to the civil war, during which Arafat and the PLO were responsible for the persecution and murder of thousands of Lebanese citizens.
  • While in Lebanon, the PLO kept lobbing attacks on Israel. In June 1982, Israel finally answered with a full-scale assault that resulted in the Lebanon War. The United States was able to broker a cease-fire deal and Arafat and was sent to Tunisia, which became his base of operations for the next decade.
  • On October 7, 1985, terrorists hijacked the the cruise ship, Achille Lauro. Arafat was the mastermind behind this tragedy where the Palestinian terrorists shot a wheelchair-bound Jewish passenger named Leon Klinghoffer and dumped his body overboard.

After all this fighting and all this violence, Arafat had one more chance. His claim has always been that he is fighting for the Palestinian People. His every action was supposed to be about giving Palestinians their own state. In July of 2000, he was given an offer for just that.

Israeli Prime Minister, Ehud Barak, asked Clinton to call a meeting so that Israel could show its determination in reaching peace. Barak offered a plan beyond what anyone could have imagined. The offer:

  • Israeli redeployment from 95% of the West Bank and 100% of the Gaza Strip
  • The creation of a Palestinian state in the areas of Israeli withdrawal
  • The removal of isolated settlements and transfer of the land to Palestinian control
  • Other Israeli land exchanged for West Bank settlements remaining under Israeli control
  • Palestinian control over East Jerusalem, including most of the Old City
  • "Religious Sovereignty" over the Temple Mount, replacing Israeli sovereignty in effect since 1967

All Arafat had to do was declare an end to conflict and agree to make no future claims on Israel. The Palestinian negotiating team was very interested in the offer, but Arafat didn't take it. The talks collapsed. They did not collapse due to discussions, but rather due to lack of discussions. Arafat made no counter offers. He made no additional requests. No discussion at all. He just walked away! His whole life had been built on violence against Israel. His entire career was dedicated to total destruction of Israel. He couldn't bring himself to stop the fighting. The Palestinians were finally going to have their own land, but he just walked away!

Let the media outlets, heads of state, and talking heads glorify him as a man who committed his life to the cause of the Palestinian People. I know better, and quite honestly, they do too. His love was not for the people he claimed to be fighting for. His love was for the fight against the people he hated. When the chance was at his fingertips, his hate of Israel was far greater than his love for the Palestinians. To me, he will forever be the blood thirsty terrorist that had peace in his hand, and threw it away. He will be the man that returned to the Palestinians, and instead of bringing them peace and a state of their own, he called them to offer up their lives and the lives of their children. His hate was so bitter, he preferred to see them kill themselves and their young, than to give them their dream. As you watch the news coverage of his death, you may find yourself shaking your head in disbelief, and a voice in your head saying, "He walked away."

He walked out in July. The first one to die after this meeting was David Biri, on September 27, 2000. Visit HERE to read the names and see the pictures of all the innocent Israeli lives he stole when he walked away that day.

The Harder the Conflict, the More Glorious the Triumph.

  The Harder the Conflict, the More Glorious the Triumph.

"The harder the conflict, the more glorious the triumph. What we obtain, too cheap, we esteem too lightly:--'Tis dearness only that gives every thing its value. Heaven knows how to set a proper price upon its goods; and it would be strange indeed, if so celestial an article as Freedom should not be highly rated....... I love the man that can smile in trouble, that can gather strength from distress and grow brave by reflection. 'Tis the business of little minds to shrink; but he whose heart is firm, and whose conscience approves his conduct, will pursue his principles unto death."

Thomas Paine- The American Crisis (Also the author of Common Sense.)

Common Sense was published on January 9, 1776 and became an instant best seller. It was a 50 page pamphlet that outlined a strong case for the colonies to go to war, seeking Independence.

Amidst the latest happenings in the Middle East and War on Terror, I thought this story appropriate and needed.  I can't help but think of the courage of our forefathers. While most people I know talk much about George Washington, John Hancock, Benjamin Franklin, and Paul Revere; the one man I remember the most is Caesar Rodney. Most Americans have no idea who he is, unless of course you have lived in Delaware. Let me share with you perhaps the most incredible story of a man that knew his purpose and life was bigger than himself.

It was late June in 1776, and Caesar was in Sussex County Delaware. Rodney was a "Brigadier General of Delaware's militia, speaker of the state assembly which had also declared him as their leader. He was alternately in his seat in congress, and at work in Delaware, stimulating the patriots and repressing the royalists." He was also dying of cancer.  He received word from Thomas McKean that he was needed in Philadelphia to sign the Declaration of Independence.  It was made clear that without his signature, there would be no independence. He knew if he signed the Declaration he would never be able to return to England, his only chance of survival would be gone.  Knowing he would never be able to live out the dream of freedom thriving in his soul, he mounted his horse and started on his journey for Philadelphia.

With cancer eating the flesh from his face and asthma gripping his every breath, he ventured onward through brutal humidity, thunderstorms, and torrential rains. He was racked with pain, sought by the British, and exhausted. The trip was not a simple ride on well traveled trails. He crossed rickety bridges, streams, and fields. He knew every hour and every one of the 80 miles were bringing him closer to signing his own death warrant, and bringing him closer to freedom.

Finally he reached Independence Hall in Philadelphia. Caesar Rodney staggered into Congress with only minutes left of the debate. Others in the room saw his condition and quickly came to assist him. His face was wrapped in linen, now covered with blood, sweat, and mud; in fact his entire body was laden with mud. It is believed he spoke these words as he cast his vote, "As I believe the voice of my constituents and of all sensible and honest men is in favor of independence, my own judgment concurs with them. I vote for independence," and then he collapsed.

Caesar Rodney cast the DECIDING vote.

My heart swells with utter pride and my eyes sting of tears when I think of this man's excruciating mission. Whenever I get a quarter, I check to see if it is his. Yes, the Delaware quarter features his valiant ride on its back. This is the epitome of integrity to me. He risked it all. He was dying of cancer. His only chance for survival was to go back to England, but he not only stayed and fought, but he gave it his all. What is more amazing is that Rodney was a 48 year old bachelor. In the 1700's, 48 was not a young age, and he had no wife or children to be leaving a legacy of freedom to. It was about his honor and duty; it was about freedom, justice, and liberty. It was about a dream.

In the years to come we will hear stories like these of the people in Iraq. They won't be riding horseback through streams and fields for 80 miles. They will be those that walked deserts, and stood in front of police stations that were the targets of choice for suicide bombings. They will be of women who dared to work in public or just leave their homes without covering their faces. We are in the midst of these great stories. Once again, America is leading the charge. We are helping others achieve the great history we hold so dear for themselves, as we did in Europe and Japan. They may not remember what our valiant and heroic soldiers did, and how our nation was ripped in a political fervor to make it all happen; but we will.

As the media tries to infuse panic about gas prices and falling stock markets, what will we do? As Israel battles the entire world of terrorist Muslims that seek their annihilation, what will we do? Will we cower and fret over our retirement funds? Will we wring our hands over the thought that the world won’t “like” us?

Rejoice in being an American today.

In the words of Thomas Paine, "We have it in our power to begin the world anew...American shall make a stand, not for herself alone, but for the world."
