What Does Losing Really Mean?

This WAR is for REAL!

To get out of a difficulty, one must be in a difficulty. To get out of any difficulty, doing nothing is seldom a solution. To get out of a serious difficulty, like a cancer, most doctors will tell you that you must resolve it, cut it out cleanly the first time, or it will surely kill you. I say to you, Islam is a worldwide cancer and our country is now facing the most serious threat to its existence that we have ever faced. Do you agree?

Do you also agree that the United States of America is not alone? Many other nations are being confronted by Islamic militants bent on total subjugation of the population, whether by conversion to Islam or their death. Regardless of your answer, you surely have acquaintances or politicians that come to mind who you know have no understanding of Islam or the deadly seriousness of the Islamic Wars.

Does your list of unread and uninformed acquaintances include you? Have you made any effort to learn about the inner workings and hidden mechanisms of the Islamic faith and the guiding precepts of the Qur’an? Do you count yourself among the people who think we can’t possibly win the war in Iraq and Afghanistan? Are you a proponent of withdrawal (redeployment)? Do you contend that it is not even remotely important to prevail in the Islamic Wars? If this accurately describes your level of understanding, count yourself among America’s most dangerous enemies. If you are a congressman, count yourself among America’s most incompetent politicians. If you are in Hollywood or the main stream media, count yourself among America’s most ignorant.

The following article was written for those who either don’t realize or don’t care what losing really means!

Let's begin by examining a few incontrovertible basics:

1. When did the threat to the United States start? Many will say September 11, 2001. The most likely beginning was the 1972 Munich Olympics. The answer as far as the United State is concerned is 1979, 22 years prior to September 2001, with the following attacks on us:

* Iran Embassy Hostages, 1979
* Beirut, Lebanon Embassy 1983
* Beirut, Lebanon Marine Barracks 1983
* Lockerbie, Scotland Pan-Am flight to New York 1988
* First New York World Trade Center attack 1993
* Dhahran, Saudi Arabia Khobar Towers Military complex 1996
* Nairobi, Kenya US Embassy 1998
* Dares Salaam, Tanzania US Embassy 1998
* Aden, Yemen USS Cole 2000
* New York World Trade Center 2001
* Pentagon 2001

We should not forget all the airline hijackings in the 1980's including the TWA on the runway in Lebanon where a U.S. sailor trying to protect other passengers was shot in the head and dumped on the runway. Do you remember the kidnappings and murders in Lebanon that included William Casey and Col. Higgins, USMC plus the kidnappings of Terry Waite, Michael Anderson and others? Are you old enough to recall the piracy of the Achille Lauro and the murder of a crippled American citizen Leon Klinghoffer who was shot and thrown overboard, still in his wheelchair? Do you remember the Lybia-sponsored bombing of the discothèque in Germany near a U.S. Airbase in which Americans were killed by Muslim terrorists. There are more, hundreds more. These are just a few examples. Most of the incidents would br describe by a civilized human being as atrocities. Not coincidentally, most of the indicents were directed by Imad Mugniya, the CURRENT Iranian head of the Pasdaran's Special Directorate (foreign intelligence missions). While every American could add any number of Islamic terrorist incidents or atrocities to the above list, the list is intentionally abbreviated to maintain some control over the length of this article. Hopefully the incidents that are listed will make the point of the uncompromising seriousness and international urgency of the Islamic Wars. How many people, do you think, are aware that during the period from 1981 to 2001, there were 7,581 terrorist attacks worldwide - before September 11, 2001? How many victims of Islamic terrorism (killed or maimed innocent men, women and children) will be necessary before most Americans come to the realization that their life expectency may be far shorter than they had hoped? Do major cities in the United States have to resemble Baghdad before that realization finally sets in?

2. Why were we attacked? The answer is so elementary: envy, our nation’s success, our freedoms – and the Qur’an command it to the Muslim faithful. The attacks happened during the administrations of Presidents Carter, Reagan, Bush 1, Clinton and Bush 2. We cannot fault either the Republicans or Democrats as there were no provocations by any of the presidents or their immediate predecessors, Presidents Ford or Carter.

3. Who were the attackers? In each and every case, the attacks on the United States were carried out by Muslims.

4. What is the Muslim percentage population of the World? 20-25%.

5. Is the Muslim Religion peaceful? Hopefully, but the question is irrelevant. Claims that the large majority of Muslims are peaceful is sycophant propaganda and meaningless. There is no doubt that the predominately Christian population of Germany was peaceful too, but under the dictatorial leadership of Hitler (who was also Christian), that made no difference. You either went along with the administration or you were eliminated. There were 5 to 6 million Christians killed by the Nazis for political reasons (including 7,000 Polish priests). Today, you either go along with the ruling Imam or you are eliminated – that means exterminated.

Unknown to most who no longer study history, almost the same numbers of Christians were killed by the Nazis as the six million holocaust Jews. We seldom hear about anything other than the atrocities committed against the Jews, which is completely understandable. Jews have no intention of letting history forget. If only Christians had the same resolve. Although Hitler kept the world focused on exterminating the Jews, he had no hesitancy about killing anyone who got in his way of taking over the world - German, Christian or atheist. It’s the same with the Muslims. They have focused the world on the United States, but they gleefully kill in the name of Allah any and all who gets in their way – including their own people, the Spanish, French or anyone else. The point is this: peaceful Germans provided no protection to anyone from the Nazis. No matter how many peaceful Muslims there may be, they will provide no protection from Muslim terrorists. Muslim leaders are fanatical and bent on killing all of us “infidels,” just as they are commanded to do by the Qur’an. Their own pronouncements confirm their actions throughout recorded history and their future intentions. Peaceful Muslims are no less worrisome or benign than peaceful WWII Germans. Whether Muslims or Germans, their choice was to participate, shut up or die!

6. So who are we at war with? There is no way anyone can challenge reality. The world is at war with the adherents of the Muslim faith. What distinguishes the Muslim terrorists is that they are non-state, non-uniformed, uncivilized in their atrocities, and engage in a form of asymmetrical warfare. Trying to be politically correct and avoid verbalizing this conclusion will become fatal to tens of thousands - and without a coherent national response to Islam, possibly millions.

7. There is no way to win a conflict if you can't or refuse to clearly recognize and articulate who it is you are fighting. Then you have to respond accordingly, not focused on Political Correctness.

So with that background, the three major questions that will determine the outcome are:

1. Can we lose this war?
2. What does losing really mean?
3. What is required to win?

If we are to win, we must answer these questions without equivocation.

We can definitely lose this war, and as anomalous as it may sound, the major reason we can lose the war is that so many American citizens simply cannot fathom the answer to the second question - What does losing really mean? There is still one other unpleasant possibility. Our congressmen are so consumed by self interest and accumulating personal wealth and power that they don’t really care if we lose.

It would appear that a great many of us think that losing the war means hanging our heads, bringing the troops home after a media-engineered defeat and going on about our business, like post-Vietnam. This is as far from the truth as one can get.

What losing really means is: We would no longer be the premier country in the world. The attacks on American citizens and interests will not subside, but steadily increase in number and intensify in spectacular brutality. Remember, they want us dead, not just quiet. If they just wanted us quiet, they would not have orchestrated an escalating series of attacks against us over the past two decades. The Muslim plan is for terrorists to attack until all Western nations (civilized nations) are neutered and/or submissive to Islam. Secondly, we would have no future support from other nations. They would correctly fear Muslim reprisals. They would see we are pathetically impotent and cannot help them. For example, how much can we expect today from Spain or France, both of whom are held hostage? Muslims will continue to subvert other non-Muslim nations one at a time. It will become increasingly easy for them. It doesn't matter whether it was right or wrong for Spain to withdraw its troops from Iraq. Spain did it because the Muslim terrorists bombed their trains and told them to withdraw their troops. It is a forgone conclusion that anything else Muslims want Spain to do will be done. Spain is finished. France is circling the drain and Germany is not far behind. Even Great Britain is in trouble. Try to imagine a world in which every one of the European nations is a Muslim dominated society that is the avowed religious, military and economic enemy of the United States.

Our one hope is that some of these countries might see the light and realize that if the United States doesn’t win, they’re finished too. They can't resist the Muslim terrorists without us. It may already be too late for France. France is 20% Muslim, fading fast and hasn’t seen the light for several centuries!

If we lose the Islamic Wars, our production, income, exports (which are already diminishing fast) and our way of life will vanish as we know it. After losing, who would trade or deal with us if they were threatened by the Muslims. And they will be threatened by the Muslims. If the United States can't stop the Muslims, how can it stop anyone else? The Muslims know what is riding on this war, they’ve made huge inroads, and they’re completely committed to winning, “at any cost.” Muslim leaders know this has to be done quickly, before their oil revenues that are used to fund their weapons and terrorism are eliminated by alternative energy sources in the West, which until now Congress has mightily resisted at the behest of the petroleum lobby.

“At any cost” is the only words key to our survival. “At any cost.”

Are we united as a population and committed to winning “at any cost?” Are we committed to winning “at any cost” to our enemies? Not even remotely. Our nation’s fate will be sealed unless changes occur very soon. We don’t have 2-5 more years to debate the Neville Chamberlain standards of national defense and diplomacy, and a one-world order based on egalitarianism envisioned by President G.W. Bush. Muslims have as their goal an incredibly repressive one-world order firmly grounded in the “Religion of Death,” many elements of which you have already seen.

Until we collectively recognize the costs of losing, until our politicians recognize our nation’s peril, we will not unite. We will not put 100% of our thoughts and efforts into winning – at any cost. Until our elected representatives and the main stream media recognizes the costs of losing and elevates the nation above their own self interests, it won’t matter how many individual citizens recognize the costs of losing. Congress doesn’t listen to the “majority” now. It is going to take a 100%-effort to win the Islamic Wars, supported both by middle America and by every race-, gender-, religious-, media-, and ideologically-based fanatic currently wasting valuable national oxygen. What are the odds?

So, how can we lose the war? The answer is simple. We can lose the war by continuing what we’re doing, by culturally imploding, by defeating ourselves, by refusing to recognize the enemy and their purposes, and by not really digging in and lending full support to the war effort. If we’re united, and committed to winning “at any cost,” there is no way that we can lose. If we continue to be divided, and set arbitrary limits on the extent to which we are willing to go to win, then there is no way that we can win! With a liberal majority ruling Congress, any hope for a favorable outcome is currently nothing but a dream.

Let me give you a few examples of how we simply don't comprehend the life and death seriousness of this situation. Although all of the terrorist attacks for the last 30 years were committed by Muslim men between 17 and 40 years of age, the Democrats and the main stream media refuse to allow profiling. Does that sound like we’re taking this thing seriously? This is a war to the death – your death or conversion to Islam is the grand prize! If you don’t believe something as obvious as a hand in front of your face, ask Barrack Hussein Obama, Senator from Illinois.

For a specified and set duration of time, it is possible we may have to agree to give up some of the civil rights we’ve become accustomed to (and guaranteed under the Bill of Rights). We have a distinct choice, relinquish some of our civil rights temporarily or lose all of them permanently. Wait, you argue, recent administrations have been all too quick to deny Americans their civil rights – everything from speech to gun ownership. That is entirely true. However, if you open your eyes to reality, you will quickly realize that the erosion of our civil liberties was not as a result of the Islamic Wars, but the result of a liberal socialist agenda underway for 50-75 years. Now is the time to work the American magic and take the rights back. Begin by reinstituting full and total property rights, gun ownership and a universal flat tax. Agree to intelligence gathering and privacy compromises in the extremis of national defense. Put an end to institutionalized discrimination – once and for all - in a single stroke. And don't worry that it is a slippery slope. We gave up plenty of civil rights during WWII, and immediately forced the government to restore them after the victory in Europe and Japan. Those who are not willing to make the sacrifices right now - to facilitate winning - are those not willing to do what it takes to win. Take the risk. What is your selfish point. You already have a 100% certainty of losing if you don’t.

Do I blame President Bush or President Clinton before him? No, and you shouldn’t either. Presidents come and go. But by all means, blame Congress for 75 years of creeping socialist legislation, political correctness, assault on the Bill of Rights, judicial activism, abandonment of the rule of law and their unbridled corruption. That is where your civil liberties have gone.

There is no such thing as a clean, lawful and honorable war. If you are unwilling to accept that, then once again you will lose. A war, should it come to pass, and it has, is a time to kill people by the tens of thousands, without remorse, so that they will stop killing your sons and daughters.

Get any notion of egalitarianism and political correctness out of your head. Some politicians and the media have gone to such extremes in their blind self-indulgent criticism of the war and the current Administration that it seems they would like to see us lose. Well they do want the United States to lose, and that has not changed since the Spanish-American War before 1900. Not only don’t they recognize what losing means, they’re disloyal (feel no responsibility for anything but themselves). Nothing is more important to a liberal than “self,” including their own birthright. Forget Republican and Democrat political party labels. There are less than five conservatives (out of 535) in all of Congress and only one Libertarian.

Nevertheless, our liberal national conduct communicates to the enemy – correctly - that we are divided and weakening. Our immorality and lack of a value system concerns other nations deeply. It does great damage to our cause. When you hear that Europeans hate Americans, think disrespect and distrust for what Congress and the Supreme Court has caused our nation to become.

We have recently had an issue that bears mentioning, involving the treatment of Muslim prisoners of war by a small group of military police. These are the same prisoners who just months ago were throwing their own people off buildings, cutting off their hands, cutting out their tongues and otherwise murdering them just for disagreeing with Saddam Hussein. And just a few years ago these same type of prisoners chemically killed 400,000 of their own citizens for the same reason. They are the same enemy fighters who were recently burned the bodies of Americans and dragged their charred corpses through the streets of Iraq. And still more recently, the same enemy was providing videos to international news sources of the beheading of Americans.

Compare these atrocities with the posturing by some of our press and politicians, who for several months have talked about nothing else but the "humiliating" of some Muslim prisoners - not burning them, not dragging their charred corpses through the streets, not beheading them, but "humiliating" them. Can this be for real? The politicians and pundits even talked at one time about the impeachment of the Secretary of Defense. If this doesn't show the complete lack of comprehension and understanding of the seriousness of the enemy we are fighting, and the life and death struggle we are in, and the disastrous results of losing this war, nothing can. To bring our country to a virtual political standstill over the prisoner issue for no other reason that political self-interest makes us look like an insane Nero playing his fiddle as Rome burned -- totally oblivious and without concern for what is going on in the real world.

Neither we, nor any other country, can survive this level of internal strife fueled by disloyal citizens (politicians) consumed by their own point of view, self-interest and personal ambitions. They are absolutely oblivious to the magnitude of the situation we are in and into which the Muslim terrorists have been pushing us for many years. They have no solutions, just criticisms. They have no alternatives, just disloyal rhetoric. They vote to start the war without the will to win decisively, without the will to win quickly, and without the will to win at any cost to the enemy.

Remember, the Muslim terrorist’s stated goal is to kill all infidels! That translates into ALL non-Muslims -- not just in the United States, but throughout the world. Like it or not, we in the United States are the last bastion of defense and “can’t we all just get along” isn’t going to cut it.

Americans have been criticized for many years for being 'arrogant.' That charge is valid in at least one respect. We genuinely believe that we are so good, so powerful and so smart, that liberals believe we can win the hearts and minds of all those who attack us, and that with both hands tied behind our back, we can defeat anything bad in the world! Well, that is arrogant, and we can't, and only a fool will drink that Jonestown Kool-Aid!

If we don't recognize this liberal arrogance for what it is, a pervasive and consummate ignorance of our enemy, our nation as we know it will not survive. It is an absolute certainty that no other free country in the world will survive if we are defeated. Can the stakes be any greater? Can liberal politicians, Hollywood wonks and the main stream media do any more harm if they tried? Yet liberal politicians and the media continue to spew hateful rhetoric at our Armed Forces, doing everything possible to undermine the United States in the Islamic Wars. Once again, it is an absolute certainty that no other free nation in the world will survive if we are defeated. Is this the unspoken goal of the Democratic Party, the main stream media and this administration.

Our national security and immigration policies on the southern border of the United States are making more reasonable Americans wonder aloud (as reflected in approval ratings of both the President and Congress).

And finally, I challenge each and every American to name a single Muslim country throughout the world that will allow freedom of speech, freedom of thought, freedom of religion, freedom of the press, equal opportunity for anyone let alone everyone, equal status (or any status) for women, or any Muslim nation that has been productive and contributed in one single way to the good of the world.

This has been a long way of saying that we are not united in the defense of the United States of America, either in these Islamic Wars or national security. Our opportunity to regain our national unity has the trajectory of a gliding anvil that has been falling for some time. It appears that it is Congress’ wish and the media’s goal that the United States of America be equated in history books to the self-inflicted fall of the Roman Empire - assuming that is, if the Muslim leaders will allow history books to be written or read?

If we don't win the Islamic Wars, decisively, right now, by doing whatever it takes, at any cost to the enemy, then you should keep a close eye on how the Muslims take over the Middle East and France in the next five years. They will continue to increase their population in France and continue to encroach little by little on the established French traditions and into their political and legal process. In the meantime, the French will be fighting among themselves over what should or should not be done, which will continue to weaken their nation and prevent any united resolve, until it is too late.

Does that sound eerily familiar? Democracies don't have their freedoms taken away from them by some external military force. Consumed by self-interest instead of unity, they give away their civil liberties, politically correct piece by politically correct piece. We who should know better are giving those freedoms away to Muslims who have shown worldwide that they abhor freedom. They will not permit civil liberties for you or even for themselves. Muslims have shown throughout history that when they have taken over, they start brutally killing any non-conforming person, and then begin killing each other in competition to determine who among them will be the next Imam that will control the masses.

I wonder if we will we ever stop hearing from the most ignorant among us (the politically correct) about the oxymoron "peaceful Muslims?" Your resolve to prevail, our national unity and all-important personal commitment are your children’s future – and ours. Without it, our children have no future. What does losing really mean?
