RADICAL ISLAMISTS AND THE DEMOCRAT PARTY, ALLIES IN THE DESTRUCTION OF AMERICA…

I’m fairly confident that most people would agree that the progressive left in this country, which, I think, we can also agree contains a vast majority of those who run around proudly referring to themselves as ‘Democrats’, detests the United States as well as its capitalist economic structure, and in so doing seeks to facilitate that structure's downfall by any, and all, means necessary.  And I am also quite confident in saying that that would include the formation of whatever alliances thought to be necessary to increase the odds of that ultimate objective being met. One such an alliance, which at one time might have seemed rather unlikely, but has over the course of the last six years come to seem all the more plausible, is that the progressive left, aka the Democrat Party, can now be said to have forged an alliance with those considered to followers of radical, fundamentalist Islam.

But while the Democrat Party wishes to bring about the end of the Unites States, at least as it was originally conceived, the radical Islamists emphatically and unambiguously reject virtually everything for which the progressive left at least claims to stand: the peaceful resolution of international conflict; respect and tolerance for other cultures and faiths; civil liberties; freedom of expression; freedom of thought; human rights; democracy; women's rights; gay rights; and the separation of church and state.  So it would seem that here could be no stranger bedfellows than the progressive left, aka the Democrat Party and Islamic extremists. Yet they have been brought together by the one overriding desire that both possess.  That being, of course, their hatred for America; their belief that the U.S. is the very embodiment of evil on earth and must consequently be destroyed.

Osama bin Laden once told a CNN interviewer, "We declared jihad against America because America is unjust, criminal and tyrannical."  Such a declaration differs little, in either substance or tone, from we continue to hear from Democrats. And in sounding as if he himself was a member of the Democrat Party, he went on to say, "America is the head of heresy in our modern world, and it leads an infidel democratic regime that is based upon separation of religion and state and on ruling the people by the people via legislating laws that contradict the way of Allah and permit what Allah has prohibited. This compels the other countries to act in accordance with the same laws in the same ways . . . and punishes any country [that rebels against these laws] by besieging it, and then by boycotting it. By so doing [America] seeks to impose on the world a religion that is not Allah's."

While the Democrat Party here at home makes no such religious references, it does, however, contend, like radical Islamists, that it’s the United States that is determined to overrun other nations and therefore dominate the world.  Radical Islam seeks purification and "social justice" by means of jihad, or holy war, whose highest ideal is martyrdom achieved while attempting to conquer an evil worldly power such as the United States, the Great Satan (and Israel, the Little Satan). The radical Islamist's ultimate goal is to subdue the "infidel" nations and therein institute sharia, or Islamic law, so as to redeem the world for Allah.  The radical left, similarly, advocates revolution as the means of achieving its ends -- eliminating capitalism and creating a socialist paradise or that ever elusive utopia right here on earth.

While Islamic radicals seek to purge the world of heresies and of the infidels who practice them, Democrats seek to purge society's collective "soul" of the vices allegedly spawned by capitalism: racism, sexism, imperialism, and greed.  Just as Islamic radicals aim to impose their religion on the rest of the world in a totalitarian fashion requiring unwavering obedience, so do Democrats strive to create an omnipotent socialist state that will control every aspect of daily life and will impose a universal brand of "social justice" on all Americans.  Central to both radical Islam and the American left is an inclination to overthrow the existing order by any means necessary, so as to create a paradise on earth.  Democrats may find the bigotry and intolerance of Islamic radicals repugnant, but their desire to rid the world of U.S. "imperialism" and capitalism overrides this revulsion, thus they ally themselves with the Islamic terrorists.

So we can very plainly see that there seems to be this shared affinity when it comes to radical Islamists and the Democrat Party which can be said to stem from their shared belief that America is in fact the Great Satan and must be destroyed at all costs.  And in sounding remarkably like Osama bin Laden, it was Barack Hussein Obama who was once heard to say from the podium there at the United Nations:  The future must not belong to those who slander the prophet of Islam. Yet to be credible, those who condemn that slander must also condemn the hate we see when the image of Jesus Christ is desecrated, churches are destroyed, or the Holocaust is denied. Let us condemn incitement against Sufi Muslims, and Shiite pilgrims. It is time to heed the words of Gandhi: "Intolerance is itself a form of violence and an obstacle to the growth of a true democratic spirit."  Over the last few years it has become increasingly difficult to tell the Democrats from the radical Muslims.

Today’s Democrat Party will almost always side with Muslims against American ideals and laws and, in particular, against Christian beliefs and practices.  It is a curiosity, to say the least.  You would think that Islam and liberalism would have absolutely nothing in common and, dare I say, would even be diametrically opposed to one another.  But the two belief systems actually have very much in common.  Liberals and Muslims despise most of what patriotic, religious Americans cherish and revere.  This makes them common enemies of the American enterprise: comrades de guerre, so to speak.  Where there is conflict between the Islamic and leftist ideologies, the Muslims will always prevail.  Democrats will never confront the Islamists, in the fear that to do so would weaken their ally, or that it could produce a backlash so violent and devastating that the beneficial alliance would be destroyed forever.

It’s amazing, even fascinating, to watch Democrats as they bend themselves into pretzels as they try to defend and support their Muslim allies in light of the latter's historical and continuing offenses against the most hallowed tenets of liberalism: hanging homosexuals; stoning adulterers; maiming criminals; abusing and raping women and children; beheading and crucifying non-believers; killing, dismembering, and having sex with the corpses of women; invading embassies and torturing and killing Americans and raping the body of the ambassador.  Instead of getting tough with the Islamists for their horrors, Barry and his leftist followers provide cover for them.  The horrific crimes and depredations committed by Islamists are endless, yet liberals manage to "tolerate" them.  You would think that people with any kind of claim to a moral mantle would not be able to tolerate so much evil. 

But such is not the case when speaking of Democrats.  Democrats cope with these contradictions by simply choosing to deny that they really exist or by convincing themselves that Islamic practices are justified and the result of cultural differences, poverty, Zionism, the need for jobs, or something that George Bush did.  The more you compare the beliefs of Islamists and liberals, the more similarities you will actually find.  Below is a series of statements.  See if you are able to distinguish which of them more closely describes Islamism or liberalism?  Muslim or liberal?  You decide:

So, Islamist or Progressive?  In the end, when you get right down to it, is there really any recognizable difference in what either one of these totalitarian ideologies espouse, or in what they wish to achieve?  Don't both of them pose a very clear and present danger to this country?  What makes those in the Democrat Party think they are any better than the radical extremist Muslims?  Whatever they believe, it is up to those of us who love freedom and liberty to deal with them, both of them.  Now I am well aware of the fact that it’s considered as being less than civil, even politically incorrect, to claim that Democrats hate this country, or are unpatriotic.  But in so doing Democrats have you ever noticed how Democrats choose to respond to such accusations?  It’s always in a way that would seem to indicate there is more than just a little truth to the accusation.  Why else ally themselves with terrorists?
