Our Father, who art in heaven, hallowed be thy Name. Thy kingdom come. THY WILL BE DONE, on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread. And forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us. And lead us not into temptation, but DELIVER US FROM EVIL.
For Thine is the kingdom and the power and the glory, forever and ever. Amen †
Islamophobia is a term manufactured by the political left in order to shut down any argument against their position. A “phobia” is defined as an irrational fear. There is nothing irrational about being concerned with Islamic Terrorism.
The term Islamophobic is itself political correctness running amok.
Once you get beyond the trained instinct of hysteria, and focus on Trump’s substantive proposal, to: “shutdown Muslims entering the United States until our country’s representatives can figure out what is going on” – it actually makes a great deal of sense.
Such a position is really not the least bit controversial, and that’s exactly what makes it so brilliant on many levels.
Of course, if you are not willing to accept the concept of Islamic Jihad – and/or if you are unwilling to accept that Islamic Terrorists have been specifically targeting America for the past decade – well, in that instance Trump’s position might seem controversial.
However, for the rest of us, it makes a great deal of sense.

As an outcome of a very concerned resident meeting at PGA Village in Port St. Lucie, the location where Omar Mateen worked as a security guard, the county sheriff shared a rather disturbing revelation.
According to the county Sheriff, Ken Mascara, Mateen was reported to his security firm G4S and the FBI for threatening a local deputy and stating he could have al-Qaeda kill the police officer’s family. He then went on to praise Nidal Hasan the Fort Hood shooter.
(Via TC Palm) […] Frustrated residents at a resident meeting Wednesday night, which was attended by at least 200 people, bombarded Drew Levine, G4S president of secure solutions in North America, with their concerns — among them, how Mateen flew under the private security firm’s radar.
Mateen in 2007, as part of the G4S hiring screening process, underwent a standard psychological exam — named the Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory — and a background check, its representatives said. The state also screened Mateen every two years in order for him to keep his private security license. Beyond that, G4S does not conduct yearly background checks of its employees; rather, 15 percent of all employees are randomly checked each year, representatives said.

There are some media reports, vague reports, that Noor Salman the terrorist’s wife, has mysteriously slipped away into “hiding”. Let’s hope those reports are incorrect and the FBI is tailing/tracking her. However, a direct question by the Daily Mail to the brother-in-law of terrorist Mateen makes the circle of knowledge seem wider than media previously would admit.
From the outset the social patterns -specific behavioral patterns- of Omar Mateen (shooter), Noor Salman (wife), Mariam or Mary (sister), and Seddique Mateen (dad), seem transparently obvious to have known in advance something was about to happen.
The similarities in networks and familial behaviors between Omar Mateen/Noor Salman and the San Bernardino terrorists Syed Farook and Tashfeen Malik are very, very similar.
Now this report about Mariam Seddique’s husband, Mustafa Abasin (Omar Mateen’s brother in law), from Daily Mail: (more…)
House Speaker Paul ‘Omnibus‘ Ryan is quoted in a Huffington Post interview as threatening to sue President Trump if he attempted to initiate his proposed halt on Muslim immigration:
“I would sue any president that exceeds his or her powers,” Ryan said in a back-and-forth about Trump’s claims that he could implement a Muslim ban or build a Mexican border wall without congressional approval.
Ryan said he wasn’t sure of the “legal question” of whether Trump could institute a Muslim ban on his own as president. (more)
“I would sue any president that exceeds his or her powers”, Ryan says. That’s rather strange, because there’s a disconnect. When President Obama declared his November 2014 “executive action on amnesty” or DAPA, neither Paul Ryan nor any other body of congressional authority attempted to sue the president. (more…)
In the aftermath of the Orlando Terrorist Attack only one candidate, Donald Trump, has expressed moral clarity on the substantive issue. In a speech delivered earlier this week a singular sentence stands out against all others:
[…] America must unite the whole civilized world in the fight against Islamic terrorism, just like we did against communism in the Cold War… (more)
That sentence identifies a global vacuum. A missing element just too uncomfortable for President Obama and liberal leaders within multiple Western nations to acknowledge. From that sentence a clear policy is born. A missing policy; missing leadership.
I predict that in the coming weeks/months candidate Hillary Clinton and President Obama will be forced to accept and adopt the clarity within Donald Trump’s position. They’ll simply have to. Because if they don’t, the voters they need will abandon them in droves.
Neither Hillary Clinton, nor President Obama are willing to admit the transparently obvious: there is a threat from Islamic Terrorism, that directly endangers the core liberal values carried by their own base constituency. (more…)
