As long as I can remember, gridlock has been the rule in national politics.. The two party system, ruled by extremists on either end of the spectrum, with it’s black vs. white mentality are responsible for this.. 

Just recently, we have seen how the divide in this country has become the fodder for Osama bin-Laden’s latest propaganda missive to the sheep..

The video has the now compulsory request that we embrace Islam… It does have a few moments that are downright curious & at times it was as if bin-Laden was delivering a sales pitch… 

The overall Marxist-Leninist nature of bin-Laden’s rhetoric is entirely in keeping with the philosophy of Sayyid Qutb, Islamic Fundamentalist,  author of several books on modern Jihad & the ideological inspiration for Al-Qa‘ida…

 Hi-liting Islam’s compulsory flat tax (Zakat giving 2.5 % of your income), presumably, to try and swing conservative/limited government opinion was a new approach… 

Liberals can’t possibly like a 2.5 % flat tax and would be forced to seek a Zakat increase under any form of Caliphate Rule..

(Sadly for liberals, one cannot tamper with the word of Allah, so good bye to most of their pet social programs… I dare say AIDS research  and the National Endowment for the Arts would be dealt a crippling blow under the Grand Mufti of D.C…) 

The Arabic version, no doubt, condemns useful idiots like Noam Chomsky, but the version for the denialist’s, or sympathetic Western ears, praises his efforts to shed light on the just struggle of the Mujahadeen…

Interestingly enough, according to OBL, some of the more praise worthy Mujahadeen are the Muslim intellectuals that are overseeing the transition of our Western University Systems from bigoted Western Theocratic Institutions of Judeo-Christian hate think; to that of Petro-Dollar endowed Islamic Cultural Centers that teach not only the wonders of Islam, but also it’s lengthy traditional history of embracing Multi-Culturalism & tolerance of other religions …

(Note to Karen Armstrong John Esposito & disciples of Edward Said… Pointing to a 200 year span during the decline of the Ottoman Turks, as though it were the rule instead of the exception, does nothing but distort the true history of the caste (Dhimmi) system, Jihad, and the importance both have played in the rise and fall of various Islamic Empires throughout the ages…)

People on the left are always praddling on about “Blood For Oil” and Imperical Ambitions… All the while, our Leftist run Academic Institutions are being endowed by some of the most misogynistic, hate filled, racist, countries in the world.. 

Their principles thoroughly compromised by greed, Universities are then compelled, by their “Arab Sugar Daddy’s”, to lie about a peaceful history & co-existence that Islam has meant for people of all religions throughout the ages…

What rubbish…

To fairly discuss Islamic High & Low points, one is remiss if they do not discuss the fact that Islamic high points in history are ALL denoted as periods of conquest, followed by harsh societal decline…

This inevitable decline is do to stagnation brought on by the damper Islam puts on creativity & ingenuity..  The idea that Allah has already created everything man needs, coupled with Islam’s repressive totalitarian nature, tends to stifle intellectualism and imagination..

This fact should be paramount in any intellectual discussion involving the TRUE history of Islamic Civilizations and why they have all failed… (This reality is true of  Marxist/ Leninist ideology as well; & is perhaps why leftists & Islamists are so sympathetic to each other…)

There is a reason the Islamic World has not made a significant contribution to mankind in the last 300 years… Not discussing that reason is like not teaching RSTUVWXY&Z when teaching the alphabet…

So I ask you…  When Intellectual Elites are teaching revisions of history, to placate their economic masters, and that unethical practice leads to the deaths of untold numbers of Jews, Buddhists, Zoarastrians, Maronites, Coptics, Hindus, Seikhs, Animists & Catholics every day, who’s really taking the blood money??? Halliburton or Harvard? 

We can continue to argue about the path to 9/11...  We can continue to point fingers at each other… Or  we can once and for all accept that at the core of this country is an underlying JUDEO-CHRISTIAN ethos of economic, religious, racial, & cultural freedom that has had people pounding down our borders to get in for over 200 years…

Or is it the wonders of Islamic diversity that has Christians leaving their homes in the West and heading to Riyadh by the Millions??  Or the tolerant nature of Islam that has so many others excited about the prospect of emigrating to Darfur?? 

Give me a break.. Evil is Evil, and when a movement cloaks their evil in a religion, it is up to the faithful in that religion to deal with it or be dealt with… That has not happened in any demonstrative fashion regarding Islam…

Perhaps it’s time for the "Elite" intellectuals (especially intellectual feminists) in the West, to ask why not?
