An Inconvenient Truth About Lone Wolves

Listening to the media, including Fox, one has to wonder why a salient characteristic of recent “lone wolves” is missing.The fact that these terrorists were Muslim converts is mysteriously absent. That ‘inconvenient truth’ is not only important for our security, but for successful counterterrorism measures. Instead,”mental problems” appears to be the chosen narrative to feed the proletariat. But times have changed. Even the ostriches among us are realizing the problem is Islamic terrorism.

Once we admit that many of these murderers are Muslim converts we have to ask why and how. A study done at Kings College, London, in 2011 illustrated that 55% of Muslim terrorists in the USA were converts. How  interesting! People who convert to Christianity, Judaism, or Buddhism don’t murder co-workers or massacre soldiers while shouting,  “Shma,” “Jesus is my savior” or “Ohm” The only cry while chopping off an infidel’s head is “Allahu Akbar.” What is it about that specific conversion that sends them on a violent jihad?

Maybe the answer lies in where they get converted- prison. Although I’m describing in broad strokes, it isn’t a stretch to say most inmates are angry and envious. Since I was a counselor for a short time in a county jail, I can say inmates regularly blame others for their actions. Blaming others, anger, and envy are emotions that Islamic ideology fuels and affirms. As a matter of fact, religious extremism is reported by the chaplains as especially common among Muslim inmates (including followers of the Nation of Islam and the Moorish Science Temple of America) according to a 2011 Pew Research Forum.

Daniel Pipes wrote about the problem of Muslim converting here.  He states, ” Conversion to Islam substantially increases the probablity of a person’s involvement  in terrorism.” That was written in 2005.  It hasn’t gotten better and in some ways worse.  These terrorists are dubbed ” lone wolves” as if they had no connection with their motivation which is to kill the “infidel.” Actual ” lone wolves” who are driven from the pack are still wolves. These human killers are still Muslim,

What about the imams who are part of the jail outreach? Muslim chaplains have the right to hold prayer groups in prison, but what if they themselves are being funded by terrorist groups?  Is emphasise being put on jihad?

People who want to convert to Judaism are told that it has to be done with an Orthodox rabbi.  In addition, certain rituals have to be performed for it to be a true conversion. Perhaps the Muslim convert needs to show how Muslim he really is before he ( or she) is accepted into the fold. Maybe he’s anxious to meet those 72 virgins. Or maybe the hate and anger that other religions try to purge is given a special seat at the dais and the convert is given permission to act on his darker impulses. The motive is not as important as monitoring our prisons and the people coming out of them.

Talk Is Cheap

Michael Ramirex Obama adminYears ago when my daughter started dating I told her to watch what people actually do, not what they say. Talk is cheap, but behavior is how we judge character. My former husband would tell me he loved me every day, but when I told him he would lose his family if he didn’t put the vodka bottle down he couldn’t manage to do it. Taking responsibility for the welfare of my children, I decided financial and emotional obstacles were worth the cost. I have never regretted that decision.

Our president and his minions in the government have demonstrated their lack of character time and again. As citizens we live under the government’s ageis. That’s their job. Our job is to monitor them and keep them in line. We have learned our president and his officials are either incapable, as some pundits claim, or unwilling to do what’s right for their citizens. Now, besides all the government sleight of hand with the IRS, Benghazi,Seal Team 6, Fast and Furious, not to mention the president’s mysterious background, we are faced with ebola and the entero virus, which has already killed seven children.

Last week our commander-in-chief deployed 4,000 soldiers of the 101 airborne division to “fight”ebola. That was after firing almost 200 generals and other high ranking military personnel who didn’t agree with the Party line. Where are the protests, screams, and general civil disobedience of the parents of our volunteer soldiers? If my child were being sent to West Africa now, I would tell him or her to disobey orders. Jail and/or a dishonorable discharge is certainly better than being sent to the center of a fatal epidemic without proper training and safety precautions.

Where is the outcry? Where are our men? What is it going to take to get our country back? Our president has demonstrated his lack of character over and over again Eric Holder thinks that because he stepped down he is no longer responsible for the crimes he committed. Lois Lerner thinks she’s okay because she was ” following orders.” Hillary Clinton, responsible for Benghazi, Whitewater, and a love of the Muslim Brotherhood, has the chutzpah to run for office again.Our country has been stolen from us by a bunch of America hating thugs and it looks like the only thing we can do is cry.

Henry David Thoreau, who used to be mandatory reading for American students, stated “That government is best which governs least.” I wonder what he would say about a government that disdains its own people, but cherishes the idea of cheap labor at the cost of human lives. According to George Orwell,”Political language… is designed to make lies sound truthful and murder respectable, and to give an appearance of solidity to pure wind.” Obama has been a master of political speech and was elevated to the position of president based on that. He has damaged our credibility and standing all around the world.

Now is the time for civil disobedience. More than 1,000,000 people got on trains, buses and planes in 2009 to show our contempt for the government’s fiscal and social plans. Although it was truly grassroots, and drew more people than the ‘Million Man March,” it was ignored. The March for Life gets very little attention every year, but a dozen people show up for a pro abortion rally and the media makes it look like a rock concert. Germany was consdered the height of culture when the government slaughtered millions.FDR called Stalin “Uncle Joe” while he killed millions or sent them to the gulag. It can’t happen here because this is a country based on morals and character. Or can it?

Purple Penguins From Red Rubbish

its-differentJewish children are taught that the first job G-d gave Adam was to name all the animals. From that story we glean that words are important. And that they have meaning. We are taught that at the time of the moshiach (messiah) the lion will lie down with the lamb. If media started crowing nonstop that lambs and lions are cuddling togerher in a pen at the DC zoo, one would have to call them liars. Reality would refute that. Peace hasn’t found a home in this world and it would be sheer foolishness or even dangerous to believe their nonsense.So why do we accept the language the Red Rubbish( formerly known as Progressives) chooses to win their political battles?

In the book the The Rebbe by Joseph Telushkin, the biographer cites certain virtues and behaviors the Rebbe espoused as crucial. One of them was the importance of using words correctly and positively. According to the author, Rabbi Schneerson even suggested that Israeli hospitals change their name from bet cholim, House of the Sick to a more positive name; House of Healing (bet Refuachim) which described its purpose better and would give people more hope.

The people of the United States have been confronted with a lexicon promoted by the Left and its minions that redefine words so that they no longer have meaning. Now bastardizing a language isn’t enough, they want to rewire children for a political agenda that will, at best, confuse them and at worst harm them. The handout teachers got in Omaha promoted using “non-sexist” language like calling boys and girls purple penguins and allowing each student to choose the pronoun he or she prefers in addressing oneself. Got that?

I have worked with children as a teacher or counselor for more than 35 years. In that time I have met NO children confused about their identity. The handout comes from GenderSpectrum,which can be found
here Note the name. Gender does not exist on a spectrum, just like marriage isn’t between a couple of the same sex. That doesn’t mean they can’t live together or have a civil union. Historically, marriage is a bond between a man and a woman in order to procreate and raise a family.

According to the thesurus, diversity means variance or dissmilarity. Instead of respecting the differnces among us, whether it’s cultures or individuals; our government, Lefty NGOs and assorted political groups demand that we pretend we’re all the same, when just looking at the differnces in members of any family refutes that ridiculous notion.

The word apartheid comes from the Afrikanner language of South Africa. It was a rigorous system of separating the races. Israel is called an ” apartheid” nation when it is as inclusive as the USA or more so. There are Muslim Arabs, Christians, Druze, and all shades of complexions in the IDF, government, and in every neighborhood. Signs and paperwork are printed in Hebrew and Arabic. Zionism is not racism, but an answer to the almost universal anti- Semitism of Europe and the Islamic world.

We are told by our president, Barack Hussein Obama, that the Islamic State of the Levant or ISIL is not Islamic. Well, if it’s in the title of that dangerous and murderous organization then that’s what it is. And when we’re told to believe that beheading “infidels”, slaughtering Christians, and taking young Christian girls as sex slaves is not the real “religion of peace” maybe those female sex slaves were really purple penguins as defined by the Red Rubbish. “Khrushchev USA 1959

Redeeming a Country

Yom Kippur’s over, fasting is over, and the prayers for a good and righteous year are over. We prayed for ourselves, our people, and our country. It looks like my cat answered my prayers, but not my government. It’s time for our country to redeem itself.The Wraith Queen The Wraith Queen

My cat Lucy was the kitty from hell. Her claws came out if you passed her while she was napping and her claws came out if she was sitting on your lap. She hissed if we didn’t feed her on time and hissed when she was full. We nicknamed her the Wraith Queen and even made up a special song. Suddenly, over the last couple of weeks, she turned docile. I asked my husband if he thought it was possible that she was communicating with another wavelength and understands that she has to change. G-d loves all his creatures and wants the best for her too.

Our government, on the other hand, hasn’t changed its belligerence one iota. Now it doesn’t even appear to care about the welfare of its citizens.Ebola? Our president sends more than 3000 military personnel to “fight” it. Perhaps he thinks he can drop medicine from drones on the germs. Ebola has been welcomed into the country because the president has refused to stop flights from West African countries. He did make sure to stop flights to Israel for “protection.” The fighting was 25 kms away Flights to very dangerous hotspots like Syria and Yemen were continued.. When the prime minister of Israel was asked to send military help to fight ebola he said he couldn’t risk the welfare of his country. Citizens concerned about illegals coming in with diseases that haven’t been seen in the USA for decades like TB.are called racists. Meanwhile, it looks like the children dying or paralyzed live in states where illegal children were transported to live.( see map below HT the Last Refuge) So what can we make of these horrible and irrational decisions of our government officials?

When my grandparents came here in the late 1800’s each person was examined on Ellis Island and if there was a problem that person was sent back. My great grandfather was sent back and then had to reenter after his eye problem was resolved. Now one can be sick, illegal,or a criminal because none of it matters to our government. So one has to ask if this is being done puposefully to destroy our country. When a traitorous deserter, Bergdahl, is swapped for five big name terrorists,who will most likely return to the battlefield to maim and murder more :infidels, while a Marine sits in a Mexican jail for a wrong turn, one has to wonder. To top off this whole chaotic mess, Barack Hussein Obama sends a thank you note to the imam of the mosque of the latest Islamic killer, “Your service is a powerful example of the powerful roots of the Abrahamic faiths and how our communities can come together with shared peace with dignity and a sense of justice.” Isn’t it odd that note was sent now for some help given during a tornado last year?”
Personally I believe our government, which includes all the bureaucrats who believe they’re above the law, should take a lesson from our cat Lucy. It’s never to late to change and redeem ourselves.Otherwise, the consequences could be disastrous. “>Thanks ro www.thelastrefuge Thanks ro www.thelastrefuge[/caption]
