Islam in a Nutshell Adapted from Dr. Peter Hammond's book: Slavery, Terrorism and Islam
IT'S not the Chinese or the Russians that represent the greatest threat to the world and might be the fulfillment of the book of Revelation in the Holy Bible.
Adapted from Dr. Peter Hammond's book: Slavery, Terrorism and Islam: The Historical Roots and Contemporary Threat. Islam is not a religion, nor is it a cult. In its fullest form, it is a complete, total, 100% system of life.
Islam has religious, legal, political, economic, social, and military components. The religious component is a beard for all of the other components.
Islamization begins when there are sufficient Muslims in a country to agitate for their religious privileges.
When politically correct, tolerant, and culturally diverse societies agree to Muslim demands for their religious privileges, some of the other components soon creep in as well.
Here's how it works:
As long as the Muslim population remains around or under 2% in any given country, they will be for the most part regarded as a peace-loving minority, and not as a threat to other citizens.
This is the case in:
At 2% to 5%, they begin to proselytize from other ethnic minorities and disaffected groups, often with major recruiting from the jails and among street gangs. This is happening in:
From 5% on, they exercise an inordinate influence in proportion to their percentage of the population. For example, they will push for the introduction of halal (clean by Islamic standards) food, thereby securing food preparation jobs for Muslims. They will increase pressure on supermarket chains to feature halal on their shelves -- along with threats for failure to comply. This is occurring in:
At this point, they will work to get the ruling government to allow them to rule themselves (within their ghettos) under Sharia, the Islamic Law. The ultimate goal of Islamists is to establish Sharia law over the entire world.
When Muslims approach 10% of the population, they tend to increase lawlessness as a means of complaint about their conditions. In Paris, we are already seeing car-burnings. Any non-Muslim action offends Islam and results in uprisings and threats, such as in Amsterdam, with opposition to Mohammed cartoons and films about Islam. Such tensions are seen daily, particularly in Muslim sections in:
After reaching 20%, nations can expect hair-trigger rioting, jihad militia formations, sporadic killings, and the burnings of Christian churches and Jewish synagogues, such as in:
At 40%, nations experience widespread massacres, chronic terror attacks, and ongoing militia warfare, such as in:
From 60%, nations experience unfettered persecution of non-believers of all other religions (including non-conforming Muslims), sporadic ethnic cleansing (genocide), use of Sharia Law as a weapon, and Jizya, the tax placed on infidels, such as in:
After 80%, expect daily intimidation and violent jihad, some State-run ethnic cleansing, and even some genocide, as these nations drive out the infidels, and move toward 100% Muslim, such as has been experienced and is on-going in:
100% will usher in the peace of 'Dar-es-Salaam' -- the Islamic House of Peace. Here, there's supposed to be peace, because everybody is a Muslim, the Madrasses are the only schools,
and the Koran is the only word, such as in:
Unfortunately, peace is never achieved, as in these 100% states the most radical Muslims intimidate and spew hatred, and satisfy their blood lust by killing less radical Muslims, for a variety of reasons.
It is important to understand that in some countries, with well under 100% Muslim populations, such as France, the minority Muslim populations live in ghettos, within which they are 100% Muslim, and within which they live by Sharia Law. The national police do not even enter these ghettos. There are no national courts, nor schools, nor non-Muslim religious facilities. In such situations, Muslims do not integrate into the community at large. The children attend madrasses. They learn only the Koran. To even associate with an infidel is a crime punishable with death. Therefore, in some areas of certain nations, Muslim Imams and extremists exercise more power than the national average would indicate.
Today's 1.5 billion Muslims make up 22% of the world's population. But their birth rates are higher than the birth rates of Christians, Hindus, Buddhists, Jews, and all other believers. Muslims will exceed 50% of the world's population by the end of this century.
Well, boys and girls, today we are letting the fox guard the hen-house. The wolves will be herding the sheep!
NOTE: Has anyone ever heard a new government official being identified as a devout Catholic, a devout Jew or a devout Protestant...? Just wondering.
Devout Muslims being appointed to critical Homeland Security positions? Doesn't this make you feel safer already??
That should make the United States much safer, huh!! Was it not "Devout Muslim men" that flew planes into U.S. buildings only 10 years ago? We must never forget this.. Was it not a Devout Muslim man who killed 13 at Fort Hood? (He killed "From within"- -don't forget that).
Also: This is very interesting and we all need to read it from start to finish. Maybe this is why our American Muslims are so quiet and not speaking out about any atrocities. Can a good Muslim be a good American? This question was forwarded to a friend who worked in Saudi Arabia for 20 years. The following is his reply:
Theologically - no . . . Because his allegiance is to Allah, The moon God of Arabia
Religiously - no. Because no other religion is accepted by His Allah except Islam (Quran, 2:256)(Koran)
Scripturally - no. Because his allegiance is to the five Pillars of Islam and the Quran.
Geographically - no. Because his allegiance is to Mecca , to which he turns in prayer five times a day.
Socially - no. Because his allegiance to Islam forbids him to make friends with Christians or Jews..
Politically - no. Because he must submit to the mullahs (spiritual leaders), who teach annihilation of Israel and destruction of America , the great Satan.
Domestically - no. Because he is instructed to marry four Women and beat and scourge his wife when she disobeys him (Quran 4:34)
Intellectually - no. Because he cannot accept the American Constitution since it is based on Biblical principles and he believes the Bible to be corrupt.
Philosophically - no. Because Islam, Muhammad, and the Quran do not allow freedom of religion and expression.. Democracy and Islam cannot co-exist. Every Muslim government is either dictatorial or autocratic.
Spiritually - no. Because when we declare 'one nation under God,' the Christian's God is loving and kind, while Allah is NEVER referred to as Heavenly father, nor is he ever called love in The Quran's 99 excellent names.
Therefore, after much study and deliberation. ... Perhaps we should be very suspicious of ALL MUSLIMS in this country. - - - They obviously cannot be both 'good' Muslims and good Americans. Call it what you wish, it's still the truth. You had better believe it. The more who understand this, the better it will be for our country and our future. The religious war is bigger than we know or understand.
Can a Muslim be a good soldier???
Army Maj. Nidal Malik Hasan, opened fire at Ft. Hood and Killed 13. He is a good Muslim!!!

'Before I was nine, I had learned the basic canon of Arab life. It was me against my brother; me and my brother against our father; my family against my cousins and the clan; the clan against the tribe; the tribe against the world, and all of us against the infidel.

Will Toledo, Ohio Be The First Major American City To Be Owned By China?
It has been said that there are two ways to conquer and enslave a nation. One way is by using the sword, and the other is by using debt. Fortunately, America is not in danger of being conquered by the sword right now, but America is being conquered by debt. The borrower is the servant of the lender, and today we owe China more than a trillion dollars. By running a gigantic trade deficit with us, China has been able to become incredibly wealthy. We have begged them to lend us back some of the money that we have sent them and this has made them even wealthier. Now China is gobbling up U.S. real estate and U.S. assets at an astounding pace. In fact, some cities are in danger of becoming completely dominated by Chinese ownership. One of those cities is Toledo, Ohio. In many "rust belt" areas, real estate can be had for a song, and the Chinese are taking full advantage of this. America was once the wealthiest nation on earth, but now we are drowning in debt and we are being sold off in chunks to the highest bidder. Is this the legacy that we are going to leave for future generations?

The Obama Outrages: Government as Black Swan
This is an outrage. Obama is a disaster in every way...here's a short list. HE is the black swan event we all feared.
PJ Media » The Obama Outrages: Government as Black Swan
- The GSA scandal, in which bureaucrats charged with improving government efficiency decided to treat themselves to a hugely expensive lark in Vegas, of all places, which the president himself had once made politically incorrect.
- The Secret Service scandal, in which agents got caught, literally, with their pants down among foreign floozies.
- The Environmental Protection Agency scandal, in which one of the agency’s regional bigs was found to have told his minions to “crucify,” like the conquering Romans, gas and oil companies at random to terrify them into submission.
- The Justice Department scandal known as “Fast and Furious,” in which drug traffickers south of the border received lethal firepower in what many believe was a bid to discredit the right to bear arms in this country.
- The National Labor Relations Board’s telling a major manufacturer, Boeing, that it couldn’t open a new plant in a “right-to-work” state.
- The ongoing scandal of the Energy Department’s backing a whole string of losers with taxpayer funds under the rubric of “alternative energy.”
- The ObamaCare overstretch in which the president snapped his fingers at the backlash over his contraception mandate (itself a major and gratuitous blow against separation of church and state) and said, in effect, “the insurance companies will pay for it,” without citing constitutional authority.
- The EPA’s seeking to bankrupt the coal industry apparently on “global warming” authority.
- The Department of Education’s Office of Civil Rights, which shocked civil libertarians by ordering colleges to use the relatively lax “preponderance of evidence” standard against males accused of rape on campus or risk losing federal funds.

If you are looking for some kind of a global financial miracle you can stop watching.
If European leaders had a master plan to save Europe they would have shown it by now.
If Barack Obama had a master plan to fix things he would have implemented it by now.
If the Federal Reserve had a master plan to fix things we would have seen it by now.
The entire house of cards is starting to come down and things are going to get really messy.

I am glad my Grandkids are homeschooled. IF we just shut down all public education our world would be a better place. If the Chicago Teachers go on strike, I am hopeful that the Mayor will do a Ron Reagan and fire them all. Shut down the schools and start over. I despise the Teacher Unions. They have destroyed education.
· IF the gang bangers terrorizing Chicago KNEW that every man woman and young person watching them was potentially armed, skilled a the use of the weapon and loaded for bear, there would be fewer random killings, fewer flash mob robberies and fewer muggings. Our streets would be safer if every punk knew that a dirty Harry or Harriet they harass or threaten would be well equipped to say..."You feelin lucky Punk? Well are you??"
Look, I grew up in a state where everyone had a gun, concealed or otherwise. North Dakota. You didn't want to tick anyone off or threaten. Mam and Sir was the order of the day for young people. We had like 3 murders a year other then Family Matters.
Every person in Chicago should be armed and able to defend their community... That will cure our crime wave. I know this goes against all the normal "get guns off the street" meme....but I know it's true. Works every time it's tried. Get guns ON the Street in the hands of good guys and watch the murder rate drop like a rock.

Happyism is a flawed idea
There is a new science of happiness, and some of the psychologists and almost all the economists involved want you to think that happiness is just pleasure. Further, they propose to calculate your happiness, by asking you where you fall on a three-point scale, 1-2-3: “not too happy,” “pretty happy,” “very happy.” They then want to move to technical manipulations of the numbers, showing that you, too, can be “happy,” if you will but let the psychologists and the economists show you (and the government) how.
On a long view, understand, it is only recently that we have been guiltlessly obsessed with either pleasure or happiness. In secular traditions, such as the Greek or the Chinese, a pleasuring version of happiness is downplayed, at any rate in high theory, in favor of political or philosophical insight. The ancient Chinese sage Zhuangzi observed of some goldfish in a pond, “See how happy they are!” A companion replied, “How do you know they are happy?” Zhuangzi: “How do you know I don’t know?” In Christianity, for most of its history, the treasure, not pleasure, was to be stored up in heaven, not down here where thieves break in. After all, as a pre-eighteenth-century theologian would put it—or as a modern and mathematical economist would, too—an infinite afterlife was infinitely to be preferred to any finite pleasure attainable in earthly life.

The Man of Lawlessness
“The coming of the lawless one will be in accordance with the work of Satan, displayed in all kinds of counterfeit miracles, signs and wonders and in every sort of evil that deceives those who are perishing. They perish because they refused to love the truth and so to be saved.” – 2 Thessalonians 3:18
I know many who wonder,”Are these the ‘End Times’?” Is the world about to come to an end? Is evil triumphing everywhere? Are we all going to burn up in a fiery Nuclear Holocaust? Is the Lord planning on sending plagues upon His enemies? Should we build family bunkers, store food, buy gold, turn inward and not look outward? Should we now prepare for the worst?
In the New Testament Bible passage above, Saint Paul [Saul of Tarsus] was admonishing the early Christian Church in Thessalonica to stay focused on the truth, to be prayerful, to avoid idleness, and to stand firm in the teachings of the Christ. By staying focused on their Faith, Paul promised that no matter what happened, the Lord of Hosts would strengthen them and protect them from the “evil one.”Many would be tempted today to say we are in the “last days.” Indeed, each generation has some or many causes to believe that their era represents the last days. This has a very great danger of becoming a logical fallacy called petitio principii, “assuming the initial point” … or, more commonly, “begging the question.” [“Begging the question” does not mean that we are begging that a question be asked as is commonly thought.] Petitio principii is sometimes called circular reasoning. The premise would take the form: “We are in the Last Days because we are in the Last Days.”
And because such a premise is unsupportable, a second fallacy, post hoc ergo propter hoc, usually follows. This fallacy essentially says “after this, therefore because of this.” Because one event followed another, that subsequent event must have been caused by the first. The first thing you know, we are in the last days! The confusion is understandable in an environment where lies and deceit abound.
I wish to make clear that I do not believe these present times are the “Last Days.” And, while I do believe that President Obama is a huge fraud, an unmitigated liar, and a deceiver, I do no believe him to be the anti-Christ … at least not yet. No. Even though his idolizing followers may believe Obama to be a messiah, he is not. Nor has the Prince of the Air empowered him with any miracles, signs and wonders that I can detect.
