The Jewish people are NOT promoting brain washing children in military training
camps, teaching them how to blow themselves up and cause maximum deaths
of Arabs and other non-Jews.
The Jews don't hijack planes, nor kill athletes at the Olympics,
or blow themselves up in hotels and restaurants around the world.
The Jews don't traffic in human slaves, nor have Jewish leaders called for Jihad and
death to all those who have a different belief system.
Perhaps the world's Muslims should consider investing more in standard education
and less in blaming the Jews for all their problems.
Muslims must ask 'what can they do for humankind' before they demand that humankind respect them.
Regardless of your feelings about the crisis between Israel and the Palestinians and Arab neighbors, even if you believe there is more culpability on Israel 's part, the following two sentences really say it all:
"If the Arabs put down their weapons today, there would be no more
violence. If the Jews put down their weapons today, there would be no more Israelïs."
Benjamin Netanyahu
General Eisenhower Warned us. It is a matter of history that when the Supreme Commander of the Allied Forces, General Dwight Eisenhower, found the victims of the death camps, he ordered all possible photographs to be taken, and for the German people from the surrounding villages to be ushered through the camps and even made to bury the dead.
He did this because he said in words to this effect:
"Get it all on record now - get the films - get the witnesses -because
somewhere down the road of history some bastard is sure to get up and say that this never happened".
Recently, the UK debated whether to remove The Holocaust from its school curriculum because it 'offends' the Muslim population which claims it never occurred. It is not removed as yet. However, this is a frightening portent of the fear that is gripping the world and how easily each country is giving into it.
It is now more than 60 years after the Second World War in Europe ended.
6 million Jews, 20 million Russians, 10 million Christians, and 1,900 Catholic priests were 'murdered, raped, burned, starved, beaten, experimented on and humiliated while the German people looked the other way.
Now, more than ever, with Iran, among others, claiming the Holocaust to be 'a myth,' it is imperative to make sure the world never forgets.
God said to the Jewish people (Abraham) in Genesis 12:2 that "you will be a blessing to others"!
How clear it is today that this promise has come true. Many, many, many of the items we use
daily would not be in our homes if it were not for the genius of the Jewish people. Thank God for them; pray for them. You will personally be blessed as you do this.
Some of the inventions of Jewish people:
◦Levi Strauss, Jeans, 1873
◦Maurice Levy (1), Lipstick, 1915
◦Lazlo Biro (1), Ballpoint Pen, 1938
◦J. Robert Oppenheimer, et al (1), Atomic Bomb, 1945
◦Edwin Herbert Land (1), Instant Photography, 1947
◦Denis Gabor (1), Holography, 1948
◦Peter Carl Goldmark (1), Long Playing Record, 1948
◦Robert Adler (1), Television Remote Control, 1950
◦Edward Teller, et al (1), Thermonuclear Bomb, 1952
◦Paul M. Zoll (2), Defibrillator, 1952 and Cardiac Pacemaker, 1952
◦Gregory Pincus (1/3), Contraceptives, early 1950s
◦Charles Ginsburg (1), Videotape, 1950s
◦Gordon Gould (1/3), Laser, 1958
◦Stanley N. Cohen (1/2), Genetic Engineering, 1973
◦Jason Lanier (1), Virtual Reality, 1989
Though the Britannica list is published in alphabetical sequence based on the common name of the invention, it provides some very interesting insights when re-sorted chronologically.
◦Chronologically, the data show how clearly the Mid-East and eastern Mediterranean dominated early history and early inventions. Namely, of the seventeen great inventions between prehistory and the Golden Age of Greece (roughly 450 BC), twelve or thirteen were invented in the Mid-East or eastern Mediterranean. Interestingly, after the Golden Age of Greece, no further great inventions came from that part of the world.
◦From the Golden Age of Greece until 1200, China was the source of most invention. Of the eleven inventions identified with that era, six came from China. This is two-thirds of the nine major Chinese inventions of which the last, the toothbrush, was invented in 1498. Nothing from China has made the list since.
◦The Dark and Middle ages truly were a period of little change or invention. Of the 321 total inventions Britannica includes on their list, only ten arose in the 1345 years between 105 AD and 1450. And of those ten, only five came from Europe.
◦The Renaissance marks the true beginning of the age of invention. Until 1450, when Gutenberg invented the printing press, there were only thirty-two noteworthy inventions. In the roughly 550 years since, there have been 289.
Once Isaac Newton and Leibniz invented the calculus, the UK and France flowered, creating twenty-three of the thirty-two inventions between the 1680s and the 1830s.
◦After the 1830s, the United States began to dominate. Of the 239 inventions since 1831, 151 came from Americans. *Of the 167 total U.S. inventions, 11.7 came from Jews. This is two and a half times the 4.5 expected. Even more interesting, perhaps, is that both inventions credited to Hungarians came from Jews (holography by Gabor and the ballpoint pen by Biro). And that does not count Edward Teller, a U.S. emigrant from Hungary who is credited with inventing the thermonuclear bomb.
◦And last, the remarkable fact that the bulk of Jewish invention is so recent. Of the fifteen inventions by Jews, thirteen date from the end of World War II. In fact, the earliest Jewish inventor of note is Levi Strauss for his 1873 co-invention of jeans. Since World War II, Britannica counts seventy-two "Great Inventions", Jews were involved in thirteen of them, roughly one hundred times what one would expect.

SILENCE IN THE FACE OF EVIL
MANY FRIENDS HAVE ASKED ME WHY I CREATED THIS BLOG AND WHY I SPEAK OUT SO BOLDLY.
DIETRICH BONHOEFFER SAID IT BEST! HE WAS KILLED BY HITLER BECAUSE HE SPOKE THE TRUTH, EVEN FROM HIS PRISON CELL.
"SILENCE IN THE FACE OF EVIL IS ITSELF EVIL.
GOD WILL NOT HOLD US GUILTLESS.
NOT TO SPEAK IS TO SPEAK.
NOT TO ACT IS TO ACT."

OBAMA AND MICHELLE LIVING HIGH ON THE HOG
I checked out the room rates for Obama's ontourage during their stay in Mumbai, India: the cheapest room will be $300 per night. And you can bet your booties that his room will cost many times that. Obama has reserved a total of 775 rooms. A very low estimate of the cost is $232,500 PER NIGHT!
And all this at a time when many, many Americans don't even have jobs!
This guy just does not get it (thank God). He consistently does things and says things
that make the voting public despise him and disrespect him.
Since Obama is expected to arrive in Mumbai, India the afternoon on November 6, and will travel by road to the Taj Mahal Hotel, the entire stretch from airport to the hotel will be under heavy security. The officer said, “There will be no vehicular movement on Western Express Highway at that time. Traffic on roads leading up to the highway will also be stopped. All buildings flanking the entire stretch will be sanitised. However, there is no threat from the snipers as the President will travel in a bullet-proof car with 4.5-inch thick sheets, which are impenetrable for any gun.”
Obama’s personal security staff itself will be huge, and it has already started making its own arrangements in Mumbai. “A team of secret service agents has already arrived, and has surveyed the areas of his stay and the roads and places on his itinerary,” the officer said.
To ensure fool-proof security, the President’s team has booked the entire the Taj Mahal Hotel, including 570 rooms, all banquets and restaurants. Since his security contingent and staff will comprise a huge number, 125 rooms at Taj President have also been booked, apart from 80 to 90 rooms each in Grand Hyatt and The Oberoi hotels. The NCPA, where the President is expected to meet representatives from the business community, has also been entirely booked.
The officer said, “Obama’s contingent is huge. There are two jumbo jets coming along with Air Force One, which will be flanked by security jets. There will be 30 to 40 secret service agents, who will arrive before him. The President’s convoy has 45 cars, including the Lincoln Continental in which the President travels.”
Since Obama will stay in a hotel that is on sea front, elaborate coastal security arrangements have been made by the US Navy in consonance with the Indian Navy and the Coast Guard. “There will be US naval ships, along with Indian vessels , patrolling the sea till about 330-km from the shore. This is to negate the possibility of a missile being fired from a distance,” the officer said.
Don't you just love sending your money to Washington, D.C.?
I was told many years ago by a very reliable source that "people like him are incapable of ruling"!

THE BIBLE DOES NOT PROVIDE ANY EDUCATIONAL BENEFIT
TALK ABOUT THE "DUMBING DOWN" OF AMERICA!
THE SCHOOL BOARD IN COLLIER COUNTY FLORIDA (THE NAPLES AREA) HAS ANNOUNCED THAT BIBLES DO NOT PROVIDE ANY EDUCATIONAL BENEFIT TO STUDENTS.
HMMM . . .
FOLKS . . . THEY ARE TALKING ABOUT THE BEST SELLING BOOK IN THE WORLD!
LORD TENNYSON SAID: "BIBLE READING IS AN EDUCATION IN ITSELF."
YES. THE BIBLE SALES EACH YEAR ARE IN EXCESS OF 100 MILLION COPIES. THIS BEATS ANY BOOK HANDS DOWN.
SINCE THE BIBLE HAS NO EDUCATIONAL VALUE, I WONDER WHY IT CONTINUES TO OUTSELL EVERY OTHER BOOK ON THE PLANET.
DOES THE COLLIER COUNTY SCHOOL BOARD NOT KNOW THAT ALL AMERICAN SCHOOLS FROM 1690 ONWARD USED THE BIBLE IN THE CLASSROOMS?
MANY OF OUR FOUNDING FATHERS LEARNED TO READ USING THE BIBLE.
ON "RELIGIOUS FREEDOM DAY", EVERY JANUARY 16, ANYONE WAS ALLOWED TO COME ON SCHOOL GROUNDS IN COLLIER COUNTY AFTER SCHOOL HOURS TO DISTRIBUTE LITERATURE.
BUT THIS YEAR EVERYONE WAS WELCOME EXCEPT FOR THE CHRISTIANS BECAUSE THEY WERE PASSING OUT BIBLES. AND, AS THE "EDUCATED" SCHOOL BOARD MEMBERS IN NAPLES KNOW: "BIBLES HAVE NO EDUCATIONAL BENEFITS".
WHO ARE THESE DO-DO BRAINS? AND HOW DID THEY EVER GET ON THE SCHOOL BOARD?
LET'S SEE NOW . . . WHO IS THE AUTHOR OF THE BIBLE?
OH, JUST GOD!
FLASH NEWS ON THE COLLIER COUNTY SITUATION:
THE SCHOOL BOARD MAY BE BACKING DOWN BECAUSE OF A LAWSUIT.
QUESTION: WHY DOES IT TAKE A LAWSUIT IN ORDER FOR AMERICANS TO
DISTRIBUTE BIBLES?

FIXING CONGRESS
1. Term Limits.
12 years only, one of the possible options below..
A. Two Six-year Senate terms
B. Six Two-year House terms
C. One Six-year Senate term and three Two-Year House terms
2. No Tenure / No Pension.
A Congressman collects a salary while in office and receives no pay when he is out of office.
3. Congress (past, present & future) participates in Social Security.
All funds in the Congressional retirement fund move to the Social Security system immediately. All future funds flow into the Social Security system, and Congress participates with the American people.
4. Congress can purchase its own retirement plan, just as all Americans do.
5. Congress will no longer vote themselves a pay raise. Congressional pay will rise by the lower of CPI or 3%.
6. Congress loses their current health care system and participates in the same health care system as the American people.
7. Congress must equally abide by all laws they impose on the American people.
8. All contracts with past and present Congressmen are void effective 1/1/11.
The American people did not make this contract with Congressmen. Congressmen made all these contracts for themselves.
Serving in Congress is an honor, not a career. The Founding Fathers envisioned citizen legislators, serve your term(s), then go home and back to work.

BOOM!
The Israelis are developing a device that will alleviate modesty concerns that arise with the use of full-body scanners at airports.
The traveller steps into a booth. There is no x-ray but it will detonate any explosive device you may be concealing.
They see this as a win-win for everyone. No racial profiling and it is fair to all and sundry. It also would eliminate the costs of a long and expensive trial. Justice would be swift. Case closed!
You're in the airport terminal and you hear a muffled explosion.
Shortly thereafter an announcement comes over the PA system.
"Attention standby passengers — we now have a seat available on flight number 123.
Shalom!"

WHAT WOULD YOU DO?
DAVID BE'ERI WAS DRIVING FROM HIS HOME IN JERUSALEM ON HIS WAY TO WORK TODAY (OCTOBER 8, 2010).
A GANG OF PALESTIANIANS BLOCKED HIS WAY AND SMASHED OUT HIS BACK WINDOW WITH ROCKS.
FEARING FOR HIS LIFE, ALL HE COULD DO WAS TO DRIVE FORWARD. IN THE PROCESS OF ESCAPING, HE, A JEW, HIT TWO OF THE ARAB YOUNG PEOPLE.
FORTUNATELY, NO ONE WAS SERIOUSLY OR PERMANENTLY INJURED. HOWEVER, SOMEONE "JUST HAPPENED" TO BE THERE AND TOOK A VIDEO OF ONE OF THE BOYS BEING HIT . . . JUST AS HE WAS ABOUT TO SMASH OUT DAVID'S WINDSHIELD. THIS VIDEO IS CIRCULATING ALL OVER THE WORLD TO SHOW HOW EVIL THE JEWS ARE.
NEVER MIND THE FACT THAT IF DAVID WOULD HAVE ALLOWED THE ARAB BOY TO SMASH OUT HIS WINDSHIELD HE WOULD HAVE BEEN SERIOUSLY HURT, DRAGGED OUT OF HIS AUTOMOBILE, AND PROBABLY STONED TO DEATH.
I'VE BEEN IN SILWAN MANY, MANY TIMES AND KNOW HOW DANGEROUS THESE GANGS CAN BE. MY TAXI WAS STONED ONCE EVEN THOUGH MY DRIVER WAS AN ARAB.
NOW HAMAS IS USING THIS INCIDENT TO MAKE THE JEWISH PEOPLE LOOK BAD, NEVER MIND THE FACT THAT DAVID BE'RI'S LIFE WAS ON THE LINE. NEWS MEDIA AROUND THE WORLD ARE REPEATEDLY SHOWING THE VIDEO.
ALL THOSE WHO HATE ISRAEL ARE USING THIS INCIDENT TO PROCLAIM: "JEWS EVEN HIT CHILDREN WITH THEIR CARS!"
WHAT WOULD YOU DO IF A GANG SURROUNDED YOUR CAR AND WAS SMASHING OUT THE WINDOWS?
NO SANE PERSON WOULD ALLOW HIMSELF TO BE DRAGGED FROM THE CAR INTO THE STREET BY AN ANGRY MOB.

TIP OF THE ICEBERG
WELL . . . ALL THE STREET SIGNS IN NYC ARE WRITTEN IN CAPS.
SO ONE OF THE THUGS IN OBAMA'S GANG DECIDED THAT ALL THE STREET SIGNS SHOULD BEGIN WITH A CAPITAL LETTER, BUT THE REST OF THE LETTERS SHOULD BE SMALL CASE.

BURNING THE KORAN
HERE IS THE BOTTOM LINE, AND NO SANE PERSON CAN REFUTE IT!
IF A MUSLIM BURNS YOUR BIBLE YOU WILL PRAY FOR HIM.
IF YOU BURN A MUSLIM'S BIBLE (THE KORAN) HE WILL TRY TO TORTURE YOU AND KILLYOU.
THIS, MY FRIENDS, IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN CHRISTIANITY AND ISLAM!
BURNING BIBLES IS GOOD!
BURNING THE AMERICAN FLAG IS GOOD!
BURNING THE QUR'AN IS BAD!
WHAT ABSOLUTE HYPOCRISY!
"THE BEAST WILL MAKE WAR WITH THE SAINTS AND OVERCOME THEM!" Rev. 11:7
BUT DO NOT DESPAIR: "GOD'S PEOPLE WILL OVERCOME HIM BY THE BLOOD OF THE LAMB, AND BY THE WORD OF THEIR TESTIMONY!" Rev. 12:11

OUR MILITARY BURNED MANY BIBLES IN 2009 because the people in Afghanistan were "offended" by our soldiers having them! With all the money our military wastes, could it not have AT LEAST sent the Bibles back to the U.S.?
"The glorious privilege of His faithful ones is to bilnd their kings with shackles and their leaders with iron chains." Psalm 149:8-9

WORLD WAR III STARTED IN 1979
IF NO ONE ELSE HAS THE GUTS TO SAY IT, I WILL!
EVERY ONE OF THESE ATTACKS WAS DONE BY ARAB MUSLIMS!
DUH!
"PEACEFUL MUSLIMS"? YOU'VE GOT TO BE KIDDING, OR ELSE YOU ARE BRAIN DEAD. BUT PROBABLY, JUST PROBABLY, YOU ARE TRYING, OH SO HARD, TO BE
POLITICALLY CORRECT.
SOMEONE EMAILED THIS TO ME. I DON'T KNOW WHO COMPILED IT, BUT IT IS INFORMATION THE ENTIRE WORLD SHOULD KNOW!
AMERICA NEEDS TO WAKE
UP!
That's
what we think we heard on the 11th
of
September 2001 (When more than 3,000 Americans were
killed) and maybe it was, but I think it should have been
'Get Out of Bed!' In fact, I think the alarm clock has
been buzzing since 1979 and we have continued to hit the
snooze button and roll over for a few more minutes of
peaceful sleep since
then.
It was
a cool fall day in November 1979 in a
country going through a religious and political upheaval
when a group of Iranian students attacked and seized the
American
Embassy in Tehran . This seizure was an
outright attack on American soil; it was an attack that
held the world's most powerful country hostage &
paralyzed a Presidency. The attack on this sovereign
U. S. Embassy set the stage for events to follow for the
next 25 years.
America was still
reeling from the aftermath of the Vietnam experience and
had a serious threat from the Soviet
Union when then, President
Carter, had to do something.
He chose to conduct a clandestine
raid in the desert. The ill-fated mission ended in ruin,
but stood as a symbol of America's inability to deal with
terrorism.
America 's military had
been decimated and down sized/right sized since the
end of the
Vietnam War. A poorly trained, poorly
equipped and poorly organized military was called on to
execute a complex mission that was doomed from the
start.
Shortly after the Tehran
experience,
Americans began to be
kidnapped and killed throughout the Middle East . America
could do little to protect her citizens living and
working abroad. The attacks against
US soil
continued.
In
April of 1983 a large vehicle packed with
high explosives was driven into the US Embassy compound in
Beirut
When it explodes, it kills 63 people. The alarm went off
again and America hit the Snooze Button once
more.
Then just six short months
later in 1983 a large truck heavily laden
down with over 25 00 pounds of TNT smashed through the
main gate of the US Marine Corps headquarters in Beirut
and 241 US servicemen are killed. America mourns her dead
and hit the Snooze Button once
more.
Two months later in
December 1983, another truck loaded with
explosives is driven into the US Embassy in Kuwait
, and America continues her
slumber.
The following year, in
September 1984, another van was driven into
the gate of the US Embassy in Beirut and America
slept.
Soon the terrorism spreads
to Europe . In
April 1985 a bomb
explodes in a restaurant
frequented
by US soldiers in
Madrid.
Then in
August 1985 a Volkswagen loaded with
explosives is driven into the main gate of the US Air
Force Base at Rheine-Main, 22 are killed and the snooze
alarm is buzzing louder and louder as US interests are
continually attacked.
Fifty-nine
days later in 1985 a cruise ship, the
Achille
Lauro is hijacked and we watched as an
American in a wheelchair is singled out of the passenger
list and
executed.
The
terrorists then shift their tactics to
bombing civilian airliners when they
bomb TWA Flight 840 in April of 1986that
killed 4 and the most tragic bombing, Pan Am Flight
103 over
Lockerbie , Scotland in 1988,
killing
259.
The wake up alarm is getting
louder and
louder.
The
terrorists decide to bring the fight to
America . In
January 1993, two CIA agents are
shot and killed as they enter CIA headquarters in Langley,
Virginia
The
following month,
February 1993 , a group of
terrorists are arrested after a rented van packed with
explosives is driven into the underground parking garage
of the World Trade
Center in New York City .
Six people are killed and over 1000 are injured.
Still
this is a crime and not an act of war? The Snooze alarm is
depressed again.
Then in
November 1995 a car bomb
explodes at a US military complex in
Riyadh Saudi
Arabia killing seven service
men and women.
A few
months later in June
of 1996, another truck bomb
explodes only 35 yards from the US military compound in
Dhahran , Saudi
Arabia .
It destroys the Khobar
Towers , a US Air Force barracks, killing
19 and injuring over 500. The terrorists are getting
braver and smarter as they see that America does not
respond decisively.
They move to
coordinate their attacks in a
simultaneous attack on two US
embassies in Kenya
and Tanzania. These attacks were planned with
precision. They kill 224.
America
responds with cruise
missile attacks and goes back to
sleep.
The USS
Cole was docked in the port of
Aden,
Yemen for refueling on 12
October 2000 , when a small
craft pulled along side the ship and exploded killing 17
US Navy Sailors. Attacking a US War Ship is an act of war,
but we sent the FBI to investigate the
crime and went back to sleep.
And
of course you know the events
of 11 September
2001. Most Americans
think this
was the
first attack against US soil or in America . How wrong
they are. America has been under a constant attack since
1979 and
we chose to hit the snooze
alarm and roll over and go back to
sleep.
In the news lately we have
seen lots of
finger pointing from
every high official in government over what they knew and
what they didn't know. But if you've read the papers and
paid a little attention I think you can see exactly what
they knew. You don't have to be in the FBI or CIA or on
the National Security Council to
see the pattern that has
been developing since
1979.
I
think we have been in a war for the past
25 years and it will continue until
we as a people decide enough is enough. America needs to
'Get out of Bed' and act decisively
now. America has been changed
forever. We have to be ready to pay the price and
make the sacrifice to ensure our way of life continues. We
cannot afford to keep hitting the snooze button again and
again and roll over and go back to
sleep.
After the attack on
Pearl Harbor , Admiral
Yamamoto said '... it seems all we
have done is awakened a sleeping
giant.' This is the message we need to
disseminate to
terrorists around the
world.
This is not a political
thing to be hashed
over in an
election year, this is an AMERICAN thing. This is about
our Freedom and the Freedom of our children in years to
come.
If you believe in this
please forward it to
as many people
as you can especially to the young people and all those
who dozed off in history class and who seem so quick to
protest such a necessary military
action. If you don't believe
it, just delete it and go back to
sleep.
EVERY ONE OF THESE ATTACKS WAS DONE BY ARAB MUSLIMS!
DUH!
"PEACEFUL MUSLIMS"? YOU'VE GOT TO BE KIDDING, OR ELSE YOU ARE BRAIN DEAD. BUT PROBABLY, JUST PROBABLY, YOU ARE TRYING, OH SO HARD, TO BE

WHAT HAPPENED TO "THE MESSIAH"?
But, Barack Obama is failing. Failing big. Failing fast. And failing
everywhere: foreign policy, domestic initiatives, and most importantly, in
forging connections with the American people. The incomparable Dorothy
Rabinowitz in the Wall Street Journal put her finger on it: He is failing
because he has no understanding of the American people, and may indeed loathe
them. Fred Barnes of the Weekly Standard says he is failing because he has lost
control of his message, and is overexposed. Clarice Feldman of American Thinker
produced a dispositive commentary showing that Obama is failing because
fundamentally he is neither smart nor articulate; his intellectual dishonesty is
conspicuous by its audacity and lack of shame.
But, there is something more seriously wrong: How could a new president riding
in on a wave of unprecedented promise and goodwill have forfeited his tenure and
become a lame duck in six months? His poll ratings are in free fall. In
generic balloting, the Republicans have now seized a five point advantage. This
truly is unbelievable. What's going on?
No narrative. Obama doesn't have a narrative. No, not a narrative about
himself. He has a self-narrative, much of it fabricated, cleverly disguised or
written by someone else. But this self-narrative is isolated and doesn't
connect with us. He doesn't have an American narrative that draws upon the rest
of us. All successful presidents have a narrative about the American character
that intersects with their own where they display a command of history and
reveal an authenticity at the core of their personality that resonates in a
positive endearing way with the majority of Americans. We admire those
presidents whose narratives not only touch our own, but who seem stronger,
wiser, and smarter than we are. Presidents we admire are aspirational peers,
even those whose politics don't align exactly with our own: Teddy Roosevelt,
FDR, Harry Truman, Ike, and Reagan.
But not this president. It's not so much that he's a phony, knows nothing about
economics, and is historically illiterate and woefully small minded for the size
of the task--all contributory of course. It's that he's not one of us. And
whatever he is, his profile is fuzzy and devoid of content, like a cardboard
cutout made from delaminated corrugated paper. Moreover, he doesn't command our
respect and is unable to appeal to our own common sense. His notions of right
and wrong are repugnant and how things work just don't add up. They are not
existential. His descriptions of the world we live in don't make sense and don't
correspond with our experience.
In the meantime, while we've been struggling to take a measurement of this man,
he's dissed just about every one of us -- financiers, energy producers, banks,
insurance executives, police officers, doctors, nurses, hospital administrators,
post office workers, and anybody else who has a non-green job.
Expect Obama to lament at his last press conference in 2012: "For those of you I
offended, I apologize. For those of you who were not offended, you just didn't
give me enough time; if only I'd had a second term, I could have offended you
too."
Mercifully, the Founders at the Constitutional Convention in 1787 devised a
useful remedy for such a desperate state--staggered terms for both houses of the
legislature and the executive. An equally abominable Congress can get voted out
next year. With a new Congress, there's always hope of legislative gridlock
until we vote for president again two short years after that.
Yes, small presidents do fail, Barack Obama among them. The coyotes howl but
the wagon train keeps rolling along.
Margaret Thatcher: "The trouble with Socialism is, sooner or later you run out
of other people's money."
"When you subsidize poverty and failure, you get more of both." - James Dale
Davidson, National Taxpayers Union

"A Liberal is a person who will give away everything he doesn't own." - Unknown

"JOYS" OF MUSLIM WOMEN
Don't watch this video, because it shows "PEACEFUL MUSLIMS" in action:
http://www.apostatesofislam.com/media/stoning.htm
Joys of Muslim Women
By Nonie Darwish
In the Muslim faith a Muslim man can marry a child as young as 1 year old and have sexual intimacy with this child. Consummating the marriage by 9.
The dowry is given to the family in exchange for the woman (who becomes his slave) and for the purchase of the private parts of the woman, to use her as a toy.
Even though a woman is abused she can not obtain a divorce.
To prove rape, the woman must have (4) male witnesses.
Often after a woman has been raped, she is returned to her family and the family must return the dowry. The family has the right to execute her (an honor killing) to restore the honor of the family. Husbands can beat their wives 'at will' and he does not have to say why he has beaten her.
The husband is permitted to have (4 wives) and a temporary wife for an hour (prostitute) at his discretion.
The Shariah Muslim law controls the private as well as the public life of the woman.
In the West World ( America ) Muslim men are starting to demand Shariah Law so the wife can not obtain a divorce and he can have full and complete control of her. It is amazing and alarming how many of our sisters and daughters attending American Universities are now marrying Muslim men and submitting themselves and their children unsuspectingly to the Shariah law.
By passing this on, enlightened American women may avoid becoming a slave under Shariah Law.
Ripping the West in Two.
Author and lecturer Nonie Darwish says the goal of radical Islamists is to impose Shariah law on the world, ripping Western law and liberty in two.
She recently authored the book, Cruel and Usual Punishment: The Terrifying Global Implications of Islamic Law.
Darwish was born in Cairo and spent her childhood in Egypt and Gaza before immigrating to America in 1978, when she was eight years old. Her father died while leading covert attacks on Israel . He was a high-ranking Egyptian military officer stationed with his family in Gaza .
When he died, he was considered a "shahid," a martyr for jihad. His posthumous status earned Nonie and her family an elevated position in Muslim society.
But Darwish developed a skeptical eye at an early age. She questioned her own Muslim culture and upbringing.. She converted to Christianity after hearing a Christian preacher on television.
In her latest book, Darwish warns about creeping sharia law - what it is, what it means, and how it is manifested in Islamic countries.
For the West, she says radical Islamists are working to impose sharia on the world. If that happens, Western civilization will be destroyed. Westerners generally assume all religions encourage a respect for the dignity of each individual. Islamic law (Sharia) teaches that non-Muslims should be subjugated or killed in this world.
Peace and prosperity for one's children is not as important as assuring that Islamic law rules everywhere in the Middle East and eventually in the world.
While Westerners tend to think that all religions encourage some form of the golden rule, Sharia teaches two systems of ethics - one for Muslims and another for non-Muslims. Building on tribal practices of the seventh century, Sharia encourages the side of humanity that wants to take from and subjugate others.
While Westerners tend to think in terms of religious people developing a personal understanding of and relationship with God, Sharia advocates executing people who ask difficult questions that could be interpreted as criticism.
It's hard to imagine, that in this day and age, Islamic scholars agree that those who criticize Islam or choose to stop being Muslim should be executed. Sadly, while talk of an Islamic reformation is common and even assumed by many in the West, such murmurings in the Middle East are silenced through intimidation.
While Westerners are accustomed to an increase in religious tolerance over time, Darwish explains how petro dollars are being used to grow an extremely intolerant form of political Islam in her native Egypt and elsewhere.
(In twenty years there will be enough Muslim voters in the U.S. To elect the President by themselves! Rest assured they will do so... You can look at how they have taken over several towns in the USA .. Dearborn Mich. Is one... And there are others...)
I think everyone in the U.S. Should be required to read this, but with the ACLU, there is no way this will be widely publicized, unless each of us sends it on!
It is too bad that so many are disillusioned with life and Christianity to accept Muslims as peaceful.. some may be but they have an army that is willing to shed blood in the name of Islam.. the peaceful support the warriors with their finances and own kind of patriotism to their religion. While America is getting rid of Christianity from all public sites and erasing God from the lives of children the Muslims are planning a great jihad on America ..
This is your chance to make a difference...! Pass it on to your email list or at least those you think will listen..

SIGNS, WONDERS, & MIRACLES
During the past 46 years we have seen the hand of God move in very powerful ways. In this letter there is only space for six of the stories that have touched the lives of so many people.
Story # 1, The Witch Doctor:
My father- in-law, Pastor George Clerie, who spent his entire life in Haiti, saw hundreds of signs and wonders during his lifetime. These powerful stories that he told drew me very close to him as I was just beginning my own ministry in the 1960s. I only knew him for a couple of years because he died suddenly of a heart attack just after Lisa, our first daughter, was born.
I will never forget hearing Pastor George tell of the time when a Witch Doctor had sent several of his men to kill him and rob him as he was walking home after one of his powerful meetings. Of course, he did not know anything about the enemy's plans.
But God knew!
Several days later, after the intended assault, the Witch Doctor and his men came to Pastor George's home and sat on the porch talking.
“What did you do to us the other night?” the Witch Doctor asked.
“What do you mean?” Pastor George said. “I don't know anything about the other night.”
“When you were returning from your meeting Sunday evening, we planned to rob you and kill you.”
“Well, what stopped you?” Pastor George asked.
“We were hiding in the bushes waiting for you. As you approached us we were getting ready to jump out and attack you. Suddenly a terrible smell caused us to fall down on the ground and begin vomiting. So we were not able to approach you.”
“Oh,” Pastor George responded. “I know what happened to you. In the Bible (2 Cor. 2:14-16) it says that believers in Jesus Christ are a Christ-like fragrance rising up to God. But this fragrance is perceived differently by those who are being saved and by those who are perishing. To those who are perishing, we are a dreadful smell of death and doom. This is what you smelled the other night.”
“Yes, this is exactly what we smelled. Your power is much greater than ours. How can we get what you have?
Because of this supernatural miracle Pastor George was able to teach the Witch Doctor and his thugs about Jesus. Every one of them accepted Christ as Savior, repented of their sins, and were saved. The converted Witch Doctor eventually became one of the pastors at the mission. I have had the privilege of meeting him and preaching in his church near Jeremie.
Story #2, Miracle in the Jungle:
We had traveled for several hours on a very dusty road near Mt. Kenya. The dust was so fine that it came up through the floorboards of the old beat-up vehicle that our host referred to as a “car”. The dust was inside the pages of my Bible, in my nose, in my ears, hair, and eyes. Seriously, I don’t remember ever being as dirty as I was on that trip. And, of course, when we arrived at our destination there wasn’t a shower. We were almost dead-center on the Equator in Kenya, Africa.
The next afternoon we had our first meeting. Not only was the entire village there, but people had walked for days from other areas to attend. In spite of the hardships, heat, and dirt, I felt a very powerful anointing as I preached.
Our second meeting was scheduled for that evening. I barely had time to take a short nap. We could hardly believe the number of people pressing in and almost fighting for a place so they could hear the Word of God.
“Why are so many people here tonight?” I asked.
“Word got around, Wes.” my Kenyan host answered, with a huge smile on his face.
“Word got around about what?” I responded.
“Oh, I guess I forgot to tell you. This afternoon while you were preaching a 12-year-old girl who had never spoken or heard was instantly healed. She was deaf and dumb from birth. She not only had the two miracles of healing, but she is speaking Swahili perfectly. Her family and neighbors have been telling everyone about it.”
The amazing thing is that no one had prayed for this girl. God merely sent his Word and healed her!
Story # 3, God Speaks English:
In China we heard so many stories of God's powerful miracles that I believe that I could fill a book with the events. Of course, the first trip to the PRC will remain in my memory forever. Twenty-three of us carried in more than one ton of Bibles---right past the watchful eyes of the communist border guards. On every one of my sixty trips to China there were always miracles, signs, and wonders.
Of course, the biggest miracle for the Chinese people was that on each of these trips our team delivered a huge payload of Bibles. It was not uncommon to see a Chinese pastor on his knees weeping for joy as he received God’s Word for his congregation.
Can you imagine what it would do for you to have a man on his knees holding your ankles, tears streaming down his face, thanking you for bringing him a Bible?
As I was riding in a taxi cab one morning on my way to preach at a meeting, the usual blaring of the cab's radio filled the taxi. Of course, since we were in China, it was all in Mandarin, China's main language.
Then, suddenly, in perfect English I heard: “God's Word is good for the Chinese people!”
I almost could not believe my ears. It made me so excited, because at times on the mission field I have wondered if I was making any eternal impact. I suppose that God knew I needed encouragement.
A few minutes later, again in perfect English I heard: “It is good to bring Bibles to the Chinese people!”
My taxi driver did not know English, but when I arrived at my destination I gave him some Chinese literature and, by making signs with my hands, encouraged him to pray to God. Believe me, that morning when I preached I felt a very special anointing.
Story #4, Helpless in Haiti:
In March, when I was at the point of death in Haiti with a temperature of 105.7 degrees, and blood pressure reading of 60 over 40, we saw the hand of God in several clear ways. Dr. David Marks, who was using his skills as a doctor to do relief work in Haiti after the 7.2 earthquake, spent 13 hours with me that eventually saved my life. And . . . he had just put in a 12-hour shift just before that.
Heidi, my daughter, saw him on his way out of the hospital and asked him if he would look at her Dad.
She had already asked another doctor, but he said that he was too busy. Dr. Marks came to me as I lay helplessly on the floor in one of the hallways.
Later he told us that I was minutes from death. He was also amazed that with my blood pressure being so low I never passed out or went into a coma. Another amazing thing is that the little Haitian hospital was very, very short on supplies. Of course, I needed a lot of saline solution. Dr. Marks knew right where to get it. A few days earlier he had brought a supply to the hospital from an orphanage because he knew that if the solution had been given to one of the orphans it would have killed him. The solution that had been donated was only for adult use. He gave me two and a half gallons (9 liters) of fluid that night.
The next morning a Marine helicopter air-lifted me to the USNS Comfort, a navy hospital ship. A team of six more doctors worked on me there. The pilot of the helicopter had another assignment, but chose to rescue me instead. If I had not been taken to The Comfort I would have died because I had a terrible relapse two days later.
Story #5, The Greg Anthony show:
After my terrible illness in Haiti and my near-death experience there, I was so weak when I returned home that I could barely walk across a room. So how do you help anyone else when you are this feeble? In spite of what I had gone through, the fire burning in my heart to share the gospel was stronger than ever. I was so thankful to God to be alive; and I was so thankful for the miracles he performed to keep me alive.
It was very, very frustrating to be so weak. And I felt slightly depressed.
So I did what I have done for most of my life---I prayed and studied the Bible.
And then one morning when I checked my email messages there was a short note from someone I had never heard from before, right out of the blue. The writer asked me if I would be on his secular radio show in California---via telephone. It would be a one-hour interview!
Wow! Just perfect for me!
So I emailed Greg back and said I would be delighted for him to interview me. Little did I realize what a great open door God had provided.
Almost every person in the United States west of the Mississippi River would be able to listen. The full potential could reach 100 million people!
When God opens doors he really opens doors!
Here I was sitting in my living room with my Bible praying to the Lord, seemingly pretty hopeless and weak. But the Bible says that his strength is made perfect in our weakness.
To make a long story short, Greg told me after the interview that more people responded to my testimony than any program he had ever aired!
Well . . . isn’t that just like God? When he does something he does it well.
So, to make the long story even shorter . . . Greg interviewed me a second time about a month later.
Enclosed is a CD of the first interview. If you want to hear the second one, just call or write me and I’ll send it free.
Story # 6, Preaching to Thousands:
Our first missionary trip to the Philippines was a surprise to all of us on the team. Originally we had been invited by Mariano Yu to teach a few home Bible studies. But by the time we actually arrived in Manila, it was as though the entire city knew we were coming. In all of my trips abroad our team never had such a royal reception. We spoke at business men’s clubs, schools, prisons, churches, and lastly in the huge La Loma soccer field. Each event was headlined in the city’s newspaper.
The Philippine government even rolled out the red carpet for us by giving us the government-owned soccer field---free of charge!
I will never forget the first night of the crusade!
Next to the soccer field was a hospital. Unbeknown to any of us at the meeting, a woman had just checked out of the hospital. The last words she heard from her doctor were: “There is nothing more we can do for you. We are sending you home to die!”
She was in very great pain as her friends helped her descend the hospital steps. But before she got into the taxi she heard the voice of my preaching blaring out from the huge PA system. Her unbearable pain was instantly gone! And she knew she had been supernaturally healed.
Somehow she knew that there was a connection to her healing with the sound coming from the soccer field. So she pushed her way through the vast crowd and eventually ended up on the platform where I was speaking. She wanted to tell her story.
As she held the microphone she trembled and sobbed her heart out for joy. Then I took the mike and told her about the Jesus who had healed her through the power of the Holy Spirit. When I asked her if she wanted to accept him as her Savior, she just screamed out, “Yes, I do. Yes, I do. All my pain is gone. I have been instantly healed!”
There was just absolute pandemonium in that place. I did not need to say another word. We simply extended the invitation to everyone who wanted to meet Jesus.
More people came forward than I had ever preached to in my life. They did not just walk forward . . . they ran toward the platform. Very seldom, in all of my trips abroad have I seen such an amazing response to the gospel of Jesus Christ. What a witness to the resurrected Son of God!
So we serve a God who is alive and very active in the affairs of those who believe. Several times over the years I've had someone come up to me after I had spoken somewhere to declare, “I don't believe that God does miracles anymore.”
I have a standard answer for people who think like this. “The Bible says these signs follow THEM THAT BELIEVE. If you don't believe, then you have nothing to worry about.”
As for me and my house, we have chosen to believe!.
“These miraculous signs will accompany those who believe” (Mark 16:17). These words are from the very lips of our Lord Jesus Christ after he was raised from the dead and was teaching the disciples.
Haiti:
The U.S. government said that it will take approximately 10 years for the nation to recover from the January 12 earthquake. Tens of thousands of people are still sleeping in the streets. Many of them do not have food or medical care. Most do not have clean water to drink.
The five Hydro-Wells that we shipped to Haiti are supplying about 1,000 people each day with clean water. But this is just a drop in the bucket compared to the vast need.
Many of the bodies of those who died were picked up by a garbage truck and dumped in a field outside Port-au-Prince. A pastor told us that around 300,000 corpses were bull-dozed into a huge hole. Had I died in Haiti I would have probably been the only white man dumped there.
Why are there so many people sleeping in the streets? Many of them sleep in the streets because their homes have been leveled by the massive earthquake. Others, whose homes were only slightly damaged, sit empty because the people are afraid to go back into their houses for fear they will collapse on them.
One of our goals is to help provide temporary housing for the homeless, even if it is just a tent which will protect them from the rain and scorching sun.
One young man told us how his mother died. A soon as the quake hit she jumped on top of him to try to protect him. Her head completely crushed his arm, but she was killed in the process. She literally died to save his life.
During my time in Haiti God led me to some Haitian young people and we started having a Bible study each day. We met for two or three hours every day. I knew that I’d only be in Haiti for about three weeks, so I started looking around for someone to take my place. A white guy by the name of Clint started attending after about two weeks. It was as though the Lord was saying, “Here is your replacement.”
God works in very strange and unusual ways. Clint will be getting married to Wendell Martin’s daughter this month in Ohio. Wendell is the man I trained to lead the Bible courier teams to China.
My prayer for you is that God will give you his signs and wonders and bring great encouragement into your life. He is a mighty God and He is able to do anything. With God nothing is impossible!
Thank you once again for your generous gift to the outreaches of Full Life Crusade. May God bless you for helping those who are suffering in Third-World countries, and for helping us take the gospel (the good news) to those who have never heard.

Story # 1, The Witch Doctor:
My father- in-law, Pastor George Clerie, who spent his entire life in Haiti, saw hundreds of signs and wonders during his lifetime. These powerful stories that he told drew me very close to him as I was just beginning my own ministry in the 1960s. I only knew him for a couple of years because he died suddenly of a heart attack just after Lisa, our first daughter, was born.
I will never forget hearing Pastor George tell of the time when a Witch Doctor had sent several of his men to kill him and rob him as he was walking home after one of his powerful meetings. Of course, he did not know anything about the enemy's plans.
But God knew!
Several days later, after the intended assault, the Witch Doctor and his men came to Pastor George's home and sat on the porch talking.
“What did you do to us the other night?” the Witch Doctor asked.
“What do you mean?” Pastor George said. “I don't know anything about the other night.”
“When you were returning from your meeting Sunday evening, we planned to rob you and kill you.”
“Well, what stopped you?” Pastor George asked.
“We were hiding in the bushes waiting for you. As you approached us we were getting ready to jump out and attack you. Suddenly a terrible smell caused us to fall down on the ground and begin vomiting. So we were not able to approach you.”
“Oh,” Pastor George responded. “I know what happened to you. In the Bible (2 Cor. 2:14-16) it says that believers in Jesus Christ are a Christ-like fragrance rising up to God. But this fragrance is perceived differently by those who are being saved and by those who are perishing. To those who are perishing, we are a dreadful smell of death and doom. This is what you smelled the other night.”
“Yes, this is exactly what we smelled. Your power is much greater than ours. How can we get what you have?
Because of this supernatural miracle Pastor George was able to teach the Witch Doctor and his thugs about Jesus. Every one of them accepted Christ as Savior, repented of their sins, and were saved. The converted Witch Doctor eventually became one of the pastors at the mission. I have had the privilege of meeting him and preaching in his church near Jeremie.

THE GOVERNMENT IS OUR ENEMY
Sheriff Paul Babeu in Arizona wants to protect the citizens of the United States from the Mexican Drug Cartel.
He has asked Obama for 3,000 armed troops.
So far all the White House has given him is SILENCE!
Sheriff Babeu recently said, "The government is our enemy!"
The Drug Cartel has placed a bounty on his head of one million dollars.
Since our own government (Obama) won't help him, you can.

EXODUS
I spent the last several weeks STUDYING the book of Exodus. Here are just a few of the gems I found:
We must make a plan. 1:10.
They refused to obey the king's orders. 1:17.
They cried out for help, and their cry rose up to God. 2:23.
God heard their groaning, and he remembered his covenant promise to Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. 2:24.
God knew it was time to act. 2:24b.
Moses took a closer look. 3:4.
I am aware of their suffering.3:7. I have been watching closely. 3:16. I am well aware of my covenant with them. 6:5.
Three-day journey: 5:3; 11:22; 19:11; 23:14; 34:13.
Every Israelite woman will ask for articles of silver and gold and fine clothing from the Egyptians.3:22; 11:2.
Aaron is on his way to meet you now. 4:14; 4:27.
I have empowered you. 4:21.
When they heard that the Lord was concerned about them and had seen their misery, they bowed down and worshiped. 4:31.
I appeared to Abraham, Isaac, and to Jacob as El-Shaddai-God Almighty-but I did not reveal my name, Yahweh, to them. 6:3.
I will make you seem like God to Pharaoh. 7:1.
Moses was eighty years old, and Aaron was eighty-three when they made their demands to Pharoah. 7:7.
"This is the finger of God!" the magicians exclaimed. 8:19; 31:13.
I will make a clear distinction between my people and your people. 8:23; 9:4; 9:26; 11:7 11:23.
I have spared you for a purpose-to show you my power and to spread my fame throughout the earth. 9:16.
I've also done it so you can tell your children and grandchildren about how I made a mockery of the Egyptians. 10:2;13:8.
We won't know how to worship the Lord until we get there. 10:26.
Then a loud wail will rise throughout the land of Egypt, a wail like no one has heard before or will ever hear again.11:6.
When I see the blood I will pass over you. 12:13,33.
They stripped the Egyptians of their wealth. 12:36.
There were about 600,000 men, plus all the women and children. 12:37.
The people of Israel had lived in Egypt for 430 years. In fact, it was on the last day of the 430th year that all the Lord's forces left the land. 12:40-41.
Do not break any of the Passover lamb's bones. 12:46.
The Lord brought the people of Israel out of the land of Egypt like an army. 12:50.
You have been set free. 13:4.
God will certainly come to help you. 13:19,21.
Order the Israelites to turn back and camp by
Pi-hahiroth between Migdol and the sea. I have planned this! 14:2,4.
The people of Israel left Egypt with fists raised in defiance. 14:8.
Don't be afraid. Just stand still and watch the Lord rescue you today. The Egyptians will never be seen again. The Lord himself will fight for you. Just stay calm. 14:13-14.
All Egypt will see my glory and know that I am the Lord. 14:18.
The Lord opened up a path through the water with a strong east wind. The wind blew all that night, turning the sea bed into dry land. So the people of Israel walked through the middle of the sea on dry ground, with walls of water on each side. The deep waters became hard. 14:21-22; 15:8.
So Moses cried out to the the Lord for help, and the Lord showed him a piece of wood. He threw it into the water, and this made the water good to drink. 15:25.
If you listen carefully to the voice of the Lord your God and do what is right in his sight, obeying his commands and keeping all his decrees, then I will not make you suffer any of the diseases I sent on the Egyptians; for I am the Lord who heals you. 15:26.
I'm going to rain down food from heaven for you. 16:4.
In the morning you will see the glory of the Lord. 16:7.
Manna (what is it?) was a flaky substance. It was white like coriander seed, and it tasted like honey wafers. 16:14,31.
Pick up two quarts for each person in your tent. 16:16.
Jethro, Moses' father-in-law, who had been a worshiper of Baal, becomes a believer. "I know now that the Lord is greater than all other gods, because he rescued his people from the oppression of the proud Egyptians." 18:11.
What are you really accomplishing here? 18:14.
This job is too heavy a burden for you to handle all by yourself. 18:18.
