Then there is only Hashem, the Jewish people is there life.<br /><br />I know a lot of people would disagree with that and argue that Israel needs all of the friends she can get, but I often think all of this friendship, conflicting opinions, right/left is too distracting. <br /><br />The Jewish people (Israel in particular) seems to do best when they have only themselves and Hashem to rely on.Keli Atahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05089132216830000713noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11368628.post-57627036785183092982012-01-09T22:21:47.955-05:002012-01-09T22:21:47.955-05:00Actually, I always thought - and stil do - that th...Actually, I always thought - and stil do - that the passion for "talk" displayed by top diplomats was and is a way of procrastinating re hard decisions and actions while still gettijng paiud.<br />Plus the politicians and diplomats are in the talking game which is what they are best at, so any means they have of even appreciating battle is nullified by their own incpaacity at this miltary stuff.<br /><br />They are the ultimate, these people, at slandering, thieving, putting off, writing, dictating - all in the verbal/adminstrative field. They do not want to fight and they do not wish to protect anyone else except themselves, not even in public office which affords them a level of protection seldom available to anyone else.<br /><br />Treaties and negotiations cost them nothing - they get to talk, grandstand, make great speeches (written by lowly staff), make (or rather receive) lots of money, travel around and look busy.<br /><br />Very little gets accomplished except that Islam gets more powerful. Which provides a nice amount of "work" for the next generation of pusillanimous talkers.TBSnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11368628.post-34513794125247103102012-01-09T22:13:43.193-05:002012-01-09T22:13:43.193-05:00Some pieces are more dense than others, but transl...Some pieces are more dense than others, but translating events for people is a major reason why I do what I do and it's good to know when I have succeeded.Daniel Greenfieldhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13575285186581875356noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11368628.post-64379910884468067902012-01-09T20:14:21.624-05:002012-01-09T20:14:21.624-05:00Sometimes I feel unsure about whether to post a co...Sometimes I feel unsure about whether to post a comment or not. Usually I feel impressed to write if an article brings to mind a related matter or if I feel an insight into the matter that will help develop or extend the concept. But other times when the subject matter is more difficult, I find myself in learning mode and struggling to wrap my mind around the matter. It is in these times that I don't want you to think that you are not getting comments because the subject matter was not interesting or because the article was poorly written or wrong. The first time I found your blog I spent hours going through articles because even at my age, I found answers to questions I had wondered about my entire life. So you truly have a unique gift for insight and analysis, but I don't want to go into cheerleader mode and write gushy comments all the time. As long as I have been studying Islam and trying to understand the mindset, I still find it difficult to get into their heads because it is so foreign to our ways. It occurred to me that today's article serves as a kind of cultural translator. We've read the Quran and Sunna that explain these concepts, but you rephrase them in our language of Western Civilization in a way that we can understand what is happening. So I guess in summary I would have to say that I have heard much of today's material before, but now I understand them better.

She is led around in circles by the chief of the conmen’s gang, Joe Mantegna, who even beds her. She winds up being taken for all her money and overhears the conmen, including the “compulsive gambler,” chortling over their sting as they divvy up their take. She was taken for a sucker right at the beginning because she was a bestselling author and had lots of money to steal.<br /><br />http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0093223/<br /><br /><br /> This is more or less what is happening to the West with Islam. Diplomats refuse to believe the evidence of their eyes and keep digging themselves deeper and deeper in the Islamic con game. They are compulsive altruists and pragmatists. The Middle East Forum had an excellent article, “The Two Faces of Al-Jazeera”: AJ West presents a “civilized” face to the West, and AJ-Arabic, which is in sync with the Islamic agenda of conquest and dissimulation. It’s broadcasting taqiyya, but our diplomats and policymakers hale the debut of this Qatar-run outfit in the U.S. <br /><br />http://www.meforum.org/3147/al-jazeera<br /><br />It’s all a game of bluff and deceit to the Islamists, and the West’s pile of chips is growing smaller and smaller. Yet, our political leaders remain at the table, hoping to grand-slam the pros with the ideal compromise that will bring peace. They ignore the gun that’s pointed at them from beneath the table.Edward Clinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12160209827969614964noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11368628.post-67660696588796180942012-01-09T04:22:49.321-05:002012-01-09T04:22:49.321-05:00Of course compromise is impossible.

Why would islam, which is the non-negotiable, unalterable, perfect word of Allah and Mohammed, ever make compromises for the filthy, non-islamic world, which is imperfect? As usual, the west presumes everyone wants to work like they do, which means compromising. But that ain't how Islam works. There is no such thing as Islamic extremism. They are going about their normal, everyday, Islamic business when they try to subjugate and kill non-muslims. They are doing nothing extreme. The Sep 11 attack was business-as-usual, nothing-to-see-here type stuff. It wasn't an 'attack' - they're just being themselves.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11368628.post-59629563103862352062012-01-09T03:27:16.676-05:002012-01-09T03:27:16.676-05:00If the desire to wage war and exterminate other gr...If the desire to wage war and exterminate other groups is one aspect of human nature, then the cowardice of the overly-affluent is its completing second.<br /><br />The compromises that non-leaders at the top of first-world nations make, are always at the expense of someone else, and intend to preserve their private prosperity, as well as that of their affiliates, on the expense of 'those filthy peasants' they rule over.<br />A comfortable-living moral-midget cannot be expected to risk his own benefits, for the sake of something abstract - like ideals, or <b>the future</b>.

Man wants and deeply desires and adores violence, to murder to pillage and to rape, the veneer of civilization invented by Judaism which had sublimated this desire for blood spilling from human sacrifice by the transformation of the surrounding cultures popular human sacrifice into animal sacrifice and in Europe this grand application of counter core feeling humanity that makes a society livable, was painted onto the primitive cultures by the spread of Christianity which itself did their best to subsitute the human lust of blood by both creating the image of their crucified, bloodied, broken savior above every cove and the ritual of drinking wine/blood and eating bread/body in their religious ceremony. Incorporating the Mithrassian blood cult which was widely spread during the rise of Christianity into the new religion. Islam has never found a symbolic alternative for bloodlust because Mohammed was an ignorant man who's Quran only expresses his desire in justifying his own all too human traits without ever considering the necessity of larger than "clan" level permanent society, hence Islam's uncompromising murderous aggression, even internally between the different branches of Islam.<br /><br />1/09/2012mindRiderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12160934421830568737noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11368628.post-92010935993366746192012-01-09T02:01:11.347-05:002012-01-09T02:01:11.347-05:00This comment has been removed by the author.mindRiderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12160934421830568737noreply@blogger.com
