My friend, you will never understand our war in Iraq until you are finally told the whole truth about the real enemy that the free world is fighting.
Once you fully understand who it is that is attacking America and the free world then, and only then, will you be able to support the wars in Iraq,
Afghanistan, and the next possible war in Iran.
The real enemy that we are fighting in the Middle-East is the religion of Islam itself. This is the essential point that most people across the entire
globe do not understand. They do not understand this because the media is purposefully avoiding telling them about the true nature of Islam. However,
history itself, provides the absolutely incontrovertible, and most importantly, completely accurate view of Islam and who it is that we are really
fighting.
A long time ago, at the very birth of our country, a very important and revealing chain of events took place that revealed the true beliefs and the
true nature of Islam concerning America, Europe, and other Christian societies. This chain of events was known as the Barbary Coast Wars. The history
books use the term, “piracy”, but what really happened was Islamic, religious based terrorism against all Christians on the high seas.
In short, as soon as America had gained its independence from England, Muslims began committing acts of war and terrorism against American civilians
all over the world. These Muslims were called “pirates” but were fully supported and controlled by the Islamic governments of the countries that
they operated in. It was the first account of state-sponsored, Islamic terrorism against the United States of America and its civilians. This happened
because American civilian ships were no longer being protected by England after America gained its independence. The Islamic terrorists wasted no time
is seizing upon the opportunity to commit the most unspeakable acts of violence upon American civilians on the high seas and elsewhere. For many
years, the United Stated attempted to pay off these terrorists in order to keep our civilians safe from Muslims. Eventually, a very important
encounter happened that tells us about the true nature of Islam and who we are still facing today.
In 1786, two of the founding fathers of our country, Thomas Jefferson and John Adams, went to negotiate with the government envoy of Tripoli,
Ambassador Sidi Haji Abdrahaman. They inquired “concerning the ground of the pretensions to make war upon nations who had done them no injury”,
the ambassador said this in reply:
“It is written in their Koran, that all nations which had not acknowledged the Prophet were sinners, whom it was the right and duty of the faithful
to plunder and enslave, and that every Muslim man who was slain in this warfare was sure to go to paradise. He said, also, that the man who was the
first to board a vessel had one slave over and above his share, and that when they sprang to the deck of an enemies ship, every sailor held a dagger
in each hand and a third in his mouth, which usually struck “TERROR” into the foe that they cried out for quarter at once.”
Fifteen years later, after Thomas Jefferson became president, our country finally decided to put an end to this terrorism against it citizens by the
only means left to them, war. The war was the very reason that the United States Navy was resurrected after the American Revolution. For a standing
Army or Navy was still considered by many to be tool of tyranny by government. But the unceasing Islamic terrorism that American civilians faced
around the world proved that only the creation of a standing military could adequately combat the real threat of global Islamic terrorism.
The very first war that America fought after gaining its independence from England was a war against Islamic terrorism against American civilians in
the Mediterranean. And we have been fighting the global war on terror ever since at various times and places in our history. Most Americans do not
know this fact. Most Americans also do not fully understand the fact that “ALL” of Islam is our enemy because of what the ambassador said to
Thomas Jefferson over 200 years ago, that it is the duty of “all” Muslim men to attack and enslave all infidels (those who are not Muslim)
wherever they may find them.
The Islamic experts who advise our government fully know these facts of history that you now know; and, for a short time, these experts presented
these facts on television after the attacks of 9/11. Back then, when a reporter questioned these experts about “Why Muslims attack America” the
experts classified the terrorists correctly as “Islamic Fundamentalists”. Quickly, the news media switched to using the term “Muslim
Extremists” and then later to the benign slogan of “Religious Extremists.” But originally, the experts classified them correctly when they
called them “Islamic Fundamentalists” because terrorism, and war against infidels, is a “Fundamental” belief in “All” of Islam. This truth
about Islam is what the news media has been trying to cover up ever since 9/11. This is why you are rarely shown the videos of what the mullahs are
preaching in mosques across, not just the Middle-East, but the entire Islamic world.
For Islam, the crusades have never ended. Their fundamental, religious beliefs will never allow an end to their crusade. In Islam, there is only one
final solution to the world. That solution is that the entire world will be converted to Islam, or it will be systematically destroyed. The experts
and administration officials know these truths much better than you or I do..
The war in Afghanistan was an unavoidable and necessary war. The Taliban was fully supporting Osama Bin Laddin and his Islamic Based Terrorist
Organization. The Taliban in Afghanistan refused to halt their support for Osama Bin Ladin and his organization. As well, Saddam Hussein was almost
finished with his large fixed position artillery cannon capable of firing shells into Israel. The inaccuracy of this large artillery piece made war
against Saddam Hussein an absolute certainty. The only real questions were when, and by who. If we decided to only attack Afghanistan and decided to
wait for Israel to attack Saddam, and his new artillery piece, then we risked the real possibility of an all sides war against Israel in the
Middle-East.
By quickly attacking Iraq, as well as Afghanistan, then we prevented a larger middle east war against Israel. The war in Afghanistan was perhaps the
only opportunity to kill two enemy birds with one stone. It was an opportunity that we could not pass up, and the only opportunity to eliminate the
very real potential of Saddam Hussein launching inaccurate chemical artillery strikes against Israel. Saddam Hussein was also supporting global
terrorism by sending money to the family of any Muslim that attacked either Israel or the United States. If we attacked Afghanistan, and not Iraq,
then Saddam Hussein would have attacked Israel as he did in the past Gulf War to attempt to create a larger Middle East war against Israel.
So you see, because of the nature of Saddam Hussein himself, we had to take him out if we were going to do any actions in the theater whatsoever.
Imagine what would have happened if the United States had forces in Afghanistan and Saddam Hussein was allowed to launch a chemically tipped artillery
shell against Israel that landed at any one of the dozen or so important religious sites within that country. What if Saddam’s inaccurate fixed
position artillery cannon hit the temple of the rock instead? How would Iran have reacted to that attack? Would they have attacked Iraq, knowing that
Saddam Hussein forces were all but destroyed? You have to remember that the no fly zone in Iraq was not just to prevent Saddam from attacking his
neighbors again. It was also to prevent his neighbors from attacking him, now that he was weak. Yes, the no fly zone in Iraq actually protected Saddam
from Iran. This is why Saddam felt that he was untouchable. He fully understood that the world would rather that a tyrant like him stayed in power
over the choice of letting Iran gain control of even more of the worlds oil supply. So, taking out Saddam was unavoidable. The only question was when.
But there other reasons to take out Saddam as well, despite the fact that the political situation gave little other choice to do so. This is why the
analysts on the news channels were talking about Iraq just days after Afghanistan was listed as the real target. The resource that our Islamic enemies
posses is oil. By taking our Saddam Hussein, our government has given a powerful blow to terrorism funding and operations around the entire world. We
have paid the price for this with over 4000 American lives. But how many lives have we saved in the process? Not just American lives, but lives all
over the entire Middle East. If we did not go into Iraq, and instead, let Saddam use his cannon to drag the middle east into another war with Israel,
how many people would have been killed then? How high would gas prices have climbed if that was allowed to happen?
As well, do not discount the very real truth that almost no true political change ever happens in this country without force. For over 30 years people
have been stating the mantra, “We must get ourselves off foreign oil!” But did any political party ever accomplish that goal in over 30 years? Of
course not. But what is happening now? Now, for the first time in 30 years, America is finally working hard to get ourselves off of foreign oil. And
just what did it take to get that ball rolling? It took exactly what political experts have always said it would take, $5.00 a gallon gasoline.
For 30 years, no one would produce alternative energy in this country because it simply wasn’t cost effective to do so. No one was even trying to
really put a dent in foreign oil because it was too cheap to come by. The car manufacturers even refused to produce fuel efficient vehicles because
they said that despite that people understood that high oil consumption was bad for the country, no one wanted to give up their extra large SUV’s.
The SUV was the icon vehicle of the upper middle class. Soccer mom was a nobody if she didn’t either drive an SUV or a mini-van. How many people do
you know that still drive a super cab diesel truck or an extended cab V8 truck? It was very clear that arrogant Americans were never going to give up
their luxuries for betterment of America. Instead, political experts rightly stated that Americans would have to be dragged kicking and screaming into
doing what was better for the country as a whole.
Now, for the first time in history, Saudi Arabia is going against OPEC. Tell me, did you ever think that you would see that in your lifetime. The war
in Iraq was unavoidable given the possible outcomes of leaving Saddam in power. The administration also knows that Islam itself is Americans worst
enemy. By doing what we really had no choice to do, we have caused the following beneficial actions to happen.
We are finally starting the process of getting off of foreign oil.
We have eliminated one wild card from the Middle East stability roulette game.
We have hurt the manipulative and dominating control of OPEC.
We have indeed protected America from further attacks from Osama and his thugs.
We have attempted to break the back of totalitarian control that Islam has over the Middle East.
We have set up a staging area for taking out the number one cause of terrorism in the world, Iran.
We really had no choice in the matter. Remember, they attacked us. From the beginning of our country they have always attacked us. What has transpired
was unavoidable and hopefully what is exactly what America needed. To get off of foreign oil and take away our enemies number one source of control
against us and source of income to attack us.
President bush may still end up going down in history as an excellent president. Not because of what he did right, but because he faced bravely and
decisively what American had neglected and avoided for far too long.
