Obama's Tough Love for the Muslim World

Back to article

Christians are told to witness to the whole world so at last EVERYONE will be Christian. A comment here says Islam works to make the world population obey Sharia law & worship Allah. In 1913, Boston, ll00 Catholic delegates to the Great American Catholic Missionary Congress met for four days.They cheered when a member asked "What is the purpose of our group? It is to make this nation and this hemisphere Catholic." All these religious ambitions base themselves on shifting the dollar value of tithes and fees from one batch of clerics to another. I lived in Saudi Arabia 4 years in the l970's & grew very tired of hearing the muzzein call to prayer five times a day, broadcast from very loud amplifiers in towers. Little shops with full length doors to guard against theft had those doors go up and down each time there came the call to prayer. Owners moved their stuff in and out from the pavement, & that took lots of work. Religion was a burden to the natives and to me, an atheist. Some day, the general population will become educated in science and religion will fade away, but it will take a long time.

This venerable and much honored WW II vet is well known in Hawaii
for his seventy-plus years of service to patriotic organizations and causes all over the country. A humble man without a political bone in his body, he has never spoken out before about a government official, until now. He dictated this letter to a friend, signed it and mailed it to the president. Consult : http://xrl.us/bgeewc

For centuries Islam of the militants have been on the march to conquer the world. We did not notice because we chose not to notice. The Muslim Brotherhood was founded in
1920 by Hassan al-Banna in Egypt and was in deep confrontation with the Egyptian government. The current goals for Islam to achieve global domination for a Muslim Caliphate: a world under strict Islamic “Sharia” law, pulling Muslims back to the 7th Century. Consult : http://xrl.us/bf66jj

If the Islamic world would follow the Laws of Ur-Nammu instead of the Code of Hammurabi, then there would be less violence and more peace in the world.
Hammurabi found out that turning the other cheek was not the way to treat people because the people took advantage of the gov't's apparent weakness; so Hammurabi got tough and imposed an eye-for-an-eye ruling. Doing this stabilized his government.
Dealing with the terrorists who don't care how cruel they are to people can only be handled in one way,i.e., The Code of Hammurabi. Our enemy cuts off people's body parts, even heads and burns out eyes, dips people into concentrated sulphuric acid and other painful things that you don't want to hear about. This is the mentality of our enemy. Our enemy has killed enough Americans, It is about time that we really got tough with them.
Whatever the CIA has to do to get information from our enemy is okay, as you should know that the enemy is doing whatever they want to do to our captured American troops. (Don't forget 9-11)
We are not a nation of Goodie-TWO-Shoes. In war we follow the Code of Hammurabi as does our enemy. So let's stop making believe that we don't do whatever we have to do, to win!

is that Barack, in ABSOLUTE private, would freely describe the Koran as a literary monstrosity and the whole of Islam as one of the biggest crocks of bull ever dumped (by coercion, mostly) on people in the history of the world.
BUT, he would immediately then acknowledge that, in reality, about a fifth of the world is immersed in it, AND, that we westerners must deal with it sensibly.
So, as President of the United States, do you go out stirring up Christians and others to hate and war against 1.3 billion Muslims because some of them resorted to terror tactics? Or do you speak respectfully to the 1.3 billion Muslims and hope you can prod most of them to believe in peace and cooperation more than blindly follow a "strict constructionist" version of stuff that their Prophet wrote down in a bunch of strange writings?
I have a hard time blaming Obama for the latter, especially as his starting approach.
