#JeSuisCharlie French support free speech after the murder of French cartoonist Charlie Hebdo Jan 7, 2015 by Muslim fundamentalists. His cartoons mocked the Prophet Mohammed |
The
manner in which Western Progressive Society responds to violence perpetuated in
the name of the Prophet Mohammed, including the Jan.7, 2015 murder of a group of
French cartoonists and the Nov. 13, 2015 murder of 129 in Paris, is tragically logical.
I
say logical since educational, journalistic, judicial, political and corporate
entities within Western Progressive Society fundamentally adhere to the vile
principal, “The enemy of my enemy is my
friend.”
This is not hard to grasp once a person steps back
and views the ethical devolution of Western Society following the Reformation. After
the Reformation came the Enlightenment, and the Age of Reason, which built the foundation of the French Revolution --
the purest expression of a progressive society undertaking “jihad” against
Catholicism and everything Christian.
Then there came the gifts of Empiricism and German
Idealism both contributing to the madness known as dialectical materialism. She
is the Lady who seduced modern man into embracing with gusto the progressive
movements of Nazism, Leninism, Stalinism, Maoism, Liberation Theology, and the
modern pro-abortion movement.
All
of these movements contributed to the slaughter of 80 to 100 million people of
faith around world; a good percentage of them being Christians, as well as
millions of unborn children.
Hate creates strange bedfellows. I can
remember my years at University of California, Berkeley, listening to various
“progressives” speaking about their hopes for the death of religion, the death
of capitalism, the murder of unborn children, the death
of the family, and the death of America and Israel.
It
was amazing to see Muslims parading with lesbians, feminists, communists, and
anarchists! I remember one time asking the Muslims, “What do Muslims have in
common with the LGBT movement and the abortionist?” Their reply was, “We hate
Western Society (Christianity and Capitalism) and especially America.” The enemy of my enemy is my friend.
The
progressive hatred for all expressions of Judeo-Christian thought (especially
Catholicism) has embedded itself so deeply within the fabric of Western Society
that any verbal or written resistance to the “progressive” stance is now
“offensive hate speech.”
Object
to the murder of an unborn child, sodomy, prostitution, contraception, assisted
suicide, the destruction of human embryos for science, children undergoing sex
change, or the adoption of children by same sex parents, and you have now
fallen into the cesspool of intolerance.
Your
offensive hate speech merits lost business opportunities, prison, elimination
of your passport, and subjects you to being shouted out on campuses, ridiculed
by the press, and marginalized by the courts.
And
yet the butchering of Christians, Jews, Hindus, Buddhists and moderate Muslims
in numerous countries (Mali, Libya, Egypt, Nigeria, Sudan, Malaysia, Palestine,
Israel, Indonesia, Pakistan, China, Syria, Lebanon, Armenia, Iraq, East Timor,
Chechnya, North Korea, India, Thailand, and Sri Lanka) is not offensive in the
Western mind.
In
the Progressive West, persons who adhere literally to the numerous chapters in
the Quran, which promote violence as the will of Allah, are conveniently
considered not to be Muslims, but “extremists,” who have co-opted the religion
of peace. This peaceful religion – by the way -- has been embroiled in a 1300-year
civil war between Sunnis and Shiite Muslims -- with no end in sight.
The attitude within
Islam towards Christianity and Judaism has never been favorable and today it is
most lamentable. Regarding non-Muslims, the Quran says, “The most implacable of men in the enmity to the
faithful (Muslim) are the Jews and the pagans and the nearest affection to them
are those who say, ‘We are Christians.’” (Surah 5:82) Countries dominated by Islamic culture
tolerate the execution, persecution, imprisonment, and destruction of Jewish and Christian structures based upon a literal
reading of the Quran. “O
Believers! Take not the Jews or Christians as friends. They are but one
another’s friends.” (Surah 5:
56)
“There are many non-violent Muslims,” constitutes
the pitiful polemics from the mouths of Western leaders as if that contributes to
honest dialogue with another re-emerging culture of death, Islam itself. This
only demonstrates to me that an ideological exchange exists between Western
Progressive Society, Nazism, Communism, and Jihadist Islam.
The jihadists
are only doing what the spiritual descendants of the French Revolution, Nazism
and Communism wish they could continue if they were not too busy self-abusing
themselves with drugs, abortion, contraception, suicide, trans-gendering,
pornography and masturbation, and forms of asphyxiated sex.
Western Society deems it hate speech when anyone
seeks to hold the foundations of Islam accountable for the butchery which began
in the Seventh Century – where its adherents wiped out whole communities of Coptic,
Syrian, Armenian, Malabar, Greek and Latin Rite Christians.
In 2006, Pope Benedict XVI -- speaking at
Regensburg, Germany -- simply called Islam and Western Society to embrace both
“faith and reason” as a means overcoming fideism (faith apart from reason),
fanaticism, and ethical suicide.
The best that Western Society could do was mock him
and blame him for offending Islam and therefore make him guilty of the
subsequent assassination of Christians in Somalia, Sudan, Nigeria, Pakistan,
and Egypt.
As long as Islamic jihadists continue to butcher
Christians and Western Society is willing to consider this as tolerable “collateral
damage,” it will cling to President George W. Bush’s Doctrine, “That Islam is a
religion of peace which was been hijacked by bad non-Muslims” and Barack Obama’s
self-absorbed mantra, “The future must not belong to those who offend the
Prophet.”
Obama then drops drone missiles on Muslims who he
identifies as not being Muslim because they view Obama’s marriage to a “so-called
Christian woman” to be an offense against Mohammed. And so the White House and
the U.S State Department became little more than brothels visited by members of the
Muslim Brotherhood. Yes, these "honest" Muslims were the ones behind the
assassination of Anwar Sadat, who dared to make peace with Israel.
The tragedy of the logic continues. The American government
makes deals with Al-Qaeda jihadist Muslims in Syria, who are fighting against the
Islamic State of Iraq and Syria (ISIS), a group that the White House
conveniently defines as non-Muslim. The White House crawls into bed with Iraqi
Shiite Muslims, who hate Iraqi Sunni Muslims. The Iraqi Shiite Muslims turn
around and make deals with Shiite Muslims in Iran that seek to nuke Israel off
the map.
Western leaders protest “ho hum” when Hamas Muslims
sends rockets into Israel. But when Israel retaliates by bombing rocket
launcher sites where Hamas has conveniently stuffed Christian women and
children, the West protests “those dirty Jews.”
When Boko Haram burns alive and enslaves Christians in Nigeria, Western
Society does nothing except to send out meaningless hashtags, “Bring back our
girls.”
It is all very discouraging to say the least, since
there is not even an attempt to honestly dialogue with Islam and those elements
supporting the Quran from which such vile behavior flows. But how can the West
respond to such barbarism, while it defends the legal practice of tearing apart
the limbs of fully developed babies in their mother’s wombs and identifies such
terror as “Western Progressive Choice.”
There is not a thread of hope that things will get
better as long as the ideologies, which presently govern Western Society,
remain in the majority.
As such,
Dear Christians, Jews, Animists, and moderate Muslims in Libya, Egypt,
Nigeria, Sudan, Malaysia, Palestine, Israel, Indonesia, Pakistan, China, Syria,
Lebanon, Armenia, Iraq, East Timor, Chechnya, North Korea, Thailand, and Sri
Lanka,
Please know that apart from a few brave men in the United States and the
Australian Military, you need to fend for yourself. By the way, Bill and
Melinda Gates want to send you contraception and the morning after pills to
comfort you in your loss because pregnancy is the root of your problems.
Signed,
Western Society, United Nations,
and NATO
P.S. Most of us are running
extremely high deficits and were hoping that you would please send us money. It
would be much appreciated.
