Note: There are certain things we are not allowed to say or think. But we must say this - Islam is a religion that in its doctrine declares that they must defeat the West including Christianity, and Judaism. To be more blunt - A FIGHTING WAR UNTIL THE WEST IS DEFEATED, to the last man/women/child. This also means - kill/terrorize by any and all means possible. We must wake up to the fact that Islam can not coexist with Western Christian, Jewish cultures! We, the West, has been at War with Islam since the sixth century. The war never ended and will not end as long as we as Christians and Jews are a force for good. Our religious Fathers were Abraham, Isaac and Jacob all Jews then Jesus Christ came and Christianity arose.
Note also: there are Muslims who can coexist with Christians and Jews, I ask them to denounce the terrorist sect.
Prayer to Saint Michael -
Saint Michael the Archangel, defend us in battle.
Be our protection against the wickedness and snares of the devil.
May God rebuke him we humbly pray;
and do thou, O Prince of the heavenly host,
by the power of God, cast into hell Satan
and all the evil spirits who wander through the world
seeking the ruin of souls. Amen.
Below is an article published by the New York Sun entitled, "Attack on Civilians at New Orleans Latest Episode in the Long Terrorist War Against the West."
It seems we have lost the will to defend ourselves, as too many of our elites across America and Europe refuse to take this threat seriously.

The New Year's Day terrorist attack in New Orleans represents a part of a larger, ongoing threat. Too many of our elites across America and Europe refuse to take it seriously.
Each terror attack comes as a surprise. Each is reported with great focus on the immediate disaster - and no serious attempt at context.
This pattern of only focusing on the present has unfortunately marked American thinking and policy for the 23 years since the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001.
It is painful to remember, but the United States also lost 4,419 young men and women while failing to transform Iraq. We lost another 2,459 Americans failing to liberate and modernize Afghanistan.
The number of terrorist attacks on other civilized nations around the world are beyond current counting.
The New Orleans attack, which killed 15 and wounded 35, was reminiscent of earlier truck attacks. Reuters pulled together a list of recent attacks and their costs in innocent lives.
A 19-ton truck at Nice killed 86 and wounded 434 on July 14, 2016.
The December 2016 attack at the Christmas Market at Berlin killed 11.
The March 2017 attack at London claimed four lives and wounded dozens of people.
The August 2017 attack at Barcelona killed 13.
The October 2017 New York City attack killed eight and wounded scores.
These are just a few of the horrendous examples of Islamist radicals using vehicles to kill people.
These attacks alone have killed 122 people. They represent a new side of the Islamist war against Western civilization.
The New Orleans attack is a shocking reminder that there are people in the world who hate our country and values - and regard killing us as a moral duty.
The great failure after the 9/11 attacks by 19 terrorists was the establishment's refusal to take the radical Islamist threat seriously.
President George W. Bush initially responded to the shock of attacks at New York City, the Pentagon, and the failed effort to attack the White House or the Capitol with the right language. In the 2002 State of the Union, President Bush outlined the threat and our response:
"States like these and their terrorist allies constitute an axis of evil, arming to threaten the peace of the world. By seeking weapons of mass destruction, these regimes pose a grave and growing danger…. We'll be deliberate; yet time is not on our side. I will not wait on events while dangers gather. I will not stand by as peril draws closer and closer. The United States of America will not permit the world's most dangerous regimes to threaten us with the world's most destructive weapons."
Sadly, the timidity and moral equivalency bias of the elites pushed back and undermined Mr. Bush's initially correct statement of the problem.
The American national security system had no idea how to wage a successful war against a transnational movement determined to kill us and end our civilization.
The American legal system had no answer to the dilemma of foreign mortal enemies who would seek shelter in laws meant to protect our citizens. Twenty-three years after September 11, 2001, we are still negotiating about the treatment of those found guilty of plotting the death of thousands of Americans. It seems we have lost the will to defend ourselves.
Compare this with President Franklin Delano Roosevelt's insistence that German spies captured in America be given the death sentence as rapidly as possible. Six were executed, and two got long prison sentences for having cooperated in turning in their accomplices.
The American military, State Department, and intelligence services have no doctrine for hunting down and destroying idea-based, fanatical movements. They have no doctrine for occupying countries and profoundly changing their culture.
America and our allies must eradicate this worldwide threat.

We have seen it in our own country in the same way. When refugees are brought in from the Middle East, they do not adapt to our culture or any other Western culture. They simply bring their culture with them into the society they are living in. France, Germany and just about every European country that has brought in Islamic refugees have had the same issues. Some countries have tried to appease them like France. There are actually entire neighborhoods in Paris which are predominantly Muslim where they have successfully banned the French Police and they openly assault outsiders who dares to enter. France is not the only European country who has this issue as a direct response to their Liberal policies that put their own citizens in danger where their crimes committed by immigrants on that country's citizens have gone through the roof. We are not even talking about the terrorist events. That is daily life in those countries where assaults and rapes of women have become common place. This is what happens when "Woke" politicians are put in positions of authority. The exact same issues have overrun our own country. The world can be a dangerous place where evil does really exist. The threats are real.
WOKEism and Progrssism must be destroyed

In the first 23 years of the 21st century, our country has averaged 46,542 deaths per year, from gun violence. As far as foreign (or foreign influenced, terrorism deaths, there were 5-10 American deaths, on our soil (outside of the 3000 +/- on 9/11), from 2000-2017. Such records stop at that point. I assume that Trump had a hand in the halting of such record keeping.
Every life is important! The 5-10 at the hands of foreign terrorist, aren't any less important than the 47,000 by gun violence. Yet, your cult believes that the 5-10 are worth more than the 47,000.
For God's Sake, do you have any sense of decency? Give as much thought and caring to the many, as you give to the few!!!

The biggest difference is simply the intolerance practiced by a very large percentage of Muslims and Islamic countries. Travelers are expected to adapt to their customs. Period. And, more and more, as Muslims migrate into more of Europe and other western countries, they seem to expect that all obey Muslim traditions regardless of the person’s belief system. Britain and Germany are prime examples of these traditions run amuck. To the point that when it is pointed out that there are Muslim grooming gangs prevalent in England – those raising the alarm are being charged with what are essentially Blasphemy laws. We can see the same in central Europe as well.
Cultures certainly have the “right” to change and to morph into what they desire – but much of these Muslim traditions are in direct conflict with Western traditions. And while western nations are willing to simply let things evolve, those the follow Islamic traditions seem perfectly willing to allow direct violence to carry the day. Such attacks seem to be a nearly daily occurrence in central Europe and England. This does not bode well for anything that might represent peaceful coexistence.
Our very first military engagement as a country were naval engagements against Islamic slavers and pirates known as the Barbary Pirates. . . . “to the shores of Tripoli” goes the phrase. The term “leatherneck” for our Marines came from the heavy leather shielding they wore around their neck to prevent being beheaded while attacking the pirates.
We have our own examples here looking back as recently at October and the response to the Hamas attack on southern Isreal on October 7th. The particularly horrific attacks – beheadings, disembowelment of pregnant women, the burning alive of parents and children – were met in this country by the cheering of Hamas and the condemnation of Isreal for responding to this attack. College campuses across the country took up cause of Hamas while condemning the Jewish students on campus to the point of preventing them from attending class. This is yet another manifestation of the conflict between Islam and the West.
While we have our own horrific examples of our conflict with Islam – 9/11 being the most memorable, things have largely been confined to arson, cars, guns, knives and fists to date. But, thanks to the largess of the Carter, Clinton, Obama and Biden administrations Iran has been able to invest hundreds of millions of dollars over the years in the development nuclear weapons. I have little doubt that once a small stockpile of nukes is available to Iran, their desire to eliminate Isreal and the Great Satan will be attempted.
Honestly, it’s a rather binary choice in my view . . . accept this eventuality . . . or do whatever is necessary to prevent it. We could start simply and return to Trump’s policy of doing everything in our power to restrict oil revenue to Iran as well as the Mideast in general. I believe the phrase is “Drill Baby, Drill”. It was successful during Trump’s first term, and I expect it will be this term as well. Worst case, we work with Isreal to militarily eliminate their nuclear capability. We may well be too late for that.
Bottom line, don’t be confused. Those who control the hearts and minds of the world’s Muslims do not have the interests of the West at heart . . . and the hardliners are fully committed to its death – period.
You’re right on the button John, right on the button.

No administration has done more to appease America's adversaries than the Obama administration and the Biden Crime Family. From begging the Iranians for a nuke deal to giving them access to billions of dollars and paying for hostages to be released their incompetence has been abundantly clear to most of us.
