Boomeryearbook.com: Terrorism gets a new name
by Joseph J Kusnell
Article:
We don’t use the word “terrorist” anymore because according to our President, we don’t want to upset the “peaceful” Muslims? Is that the reason or is it because our President has extended Muslim family ties and he is more kindly deposed towards Muslims than are the rest of us?
It doesn’t matter. The majority of Muslims may be peaceful but they are not the danger and if they are silent, then they are part of the problem.
The Revolutionary War was supported by fewer than 1/3 of Americans. Half of the country supported England and 25% were woodmen who didn’t concern themselves with their government or its activities. The minority went to war, fought the war, and earned the victory.
Fidel Castro had about 5,000 supporters in the mountains of Cuba when he initiated his revolution. They were a minority. The majority never was involved. .
Minorities can be very dangerous. The Nazi party was an minority in Germany in the early thirties. The majority had nothing to do with or say about them. Even today if you ask, most Germans they will tell you the majority of Germans were never Nazi’s. Yet the Nazi’s started a war that ended up destroying Germany and killing millions.
My point is that violent minorities often control passive majorities. So when you hear most Muslims are not suicide bombers, so what? Go to any Mosque and most of the people there are not fanatics but the fanatics will do the talking and the others will shut up out of fear. The London Mosques are filled with radicals running the show and the majority is as silent as it is “peaceful”.
Two years ago, a poll was conducted in England. English Muslim citizens were asked if they had to choose between their country (England) and their religion (Islam), which would they choose? Over 80% said their religion. We need to make sure Americans know about that poll and understand what it says about Muslims, good and bad.
The “good” Muslims are not going out on the limb against their religion to save us. You can bet on that. We need to save ourselves.
There are a billion Muslims in the world and maybe 20-40 thousand of them are directly involved with el Queda. And unknown number of others support them. Fine. So if the peaceful majority wants to be counted, let them take control of the radical minority and help us deal with them. Let them step up and do something positive. They can’t be on both sides at the same time.
If they don’t speak up, if they don’t help control the radicals among them, then they are part of the problems and their feelings are of no consequence to me.
This is a matter of life and death as we saw at Virginia Tech and now at Ft. Hood. The perpetrators were Muslims – radical and fanatical Muslims. We must call them what they are if we are to protect ourselves. They were Muslims.
If so many Muslims are peaceful as they say, let them show themselves in their Mosques. Let them stand up and offer testimony opposed to what is being offered by their more radical Imams. Maybe they should form groups that can stand up against the radicals and talk for peace among their people.
If they cannot or will not because they are intimidated then they are no help to us and we can’t be unduly concerned over their hurt feelings.
Seldom is the majority ever involved in radical type revolutionary movements. it is always a minority and usually the minority is a violent, hate-filled angry minority that intimates the majority as happened in Nazi Germany, Cuba, Argentina, Russia and China among other places.
If the “good” Muslims can’t control or help us to control the “bad” Muslims, then we need to act on our own and we can’t worry about the sensibilities of these people. We need to deal with the fanatics because they are the ones that threaten us and those others have already demonstrated they are followers not leaders. That means they will follow whoever is the leader, even el Queda. .
Finally remember this: America is VERY vulnerable for large scale terrorist activities. We are wide open and some of the things they can do are hottible to contemplate. Being weak or uncertain or unwilling to act forcibly is the best to guarantee the death of large numbers of Americans.
Say it aloud, America. TERRORISM. Radical, fundamentalist Muslim terrorism is the real danger!!!
By any other name, it remains the same.
