the contemporary left is at war with reality on many fronts: the mass media; the climate scare; the plethora of hoaxes related to covid; the pretense that their politicians are competent and non-felonious; the double standard regarding claims of electoral malfeasance; separating sex from biology whether in eugenics, abortion, the unspeakable crime against nature, or medical/surgical transvetitism; "born that way"; etc.
Here's a few more, courtesy of the left's dictionary(1984)
What are the 3 slogans in 1984? War is peace is a slogan, indicating unity in hatred. Freedom is slavery is another, urging individuals to find themselves in the party. The last is ignorance is strength, which means that the Party knows best.
You must believe, think, feel and behave precisely in accordance with Progressives’ beliefs to be a good person, in their view. No margin for “diversity”. So narcissistic!
"You know, for a bunch of people who pride themselves on their intellectual superiority, liberals sure can be dumb."
The dumbest on this scale are exposed in Robin Aitken's superb "The Noble Liar – How and Why the BBC Distorts the News to Promote a Liberal Agenda" (2018; updated in a new edition in 2020).
It's highly recommended, although I warn you that the sterile / lifeless introduction should never have seen the light of day; skim through it quickly and after that, what you're reading will improve swiftly.
Do read first how the BBC made jackasses out of themselves after Trump won the election in 2016 (see "Trump" in the index for the page numbers).
"Liberals." They don't exist any longer; they've physically died out, just like the "liberal Republicans" (Rockefeller et al) did decades earlier.
Eleanor Roosevelt is long deceased (and the Roosevelt Hotel in NYC, owned by the Pakistani government, is now a chaotic illegal alien bolthole financially subsidized by the Adams-City Hall criminal cartel in power).
The biggest problem liberals have is that they lie to themselves and then begin to believe the lies. I never did understand how they supported a religion that spells out that gays should be killed when the Christian religions only condemn the behavior and as they say, "hate the sin but forgive the sinner". The Muslim faith is not quite so tolerant of the sinner. Death is often the punishment.
But the real problem is that liberals live in their own little bubble and are truly ignorant of the beliefs of others because they think that everyone thinks the way they do. It is why they have never developed cogent arguments for their positions; they don't believe they have to, and are always shocked to find that some of their educated friends do not agree with them. Their education is sorely lacking because they feed off of each others ignorance and refuse to see the world as it is rather than how they would like it to be.
In the liberal world every problem can be solved. In the real world, as we know, that is so often not the case. Living with reality is not easy for a liberal because sooner or later it will smack you in the face, mask or no mask.
A big shock I had way back was when Hitlery Clinton was running the first time (before they sold the spot to Obama), she said that Democrats could also be patriots. I highly doubted it, but admit I hadn't given it a lot of thought. Patriotism means different things, I understand, according to one's upbringing. Does anyone think she could possibly love this country?
Hillary came from a upper middle class family there are no excuses for her lack of patriotism, and I actually don't think that is the issue. Hillary is what my mother used to call "money hungry", she puts money above all else. I think she would sell her entire family if someone offered her a number that she considered acceptable. I don't understand it but it is clear to anyone who looks at her history from whitewater to travel office to cattle futures to bags of Chinese money in the oval office, it is all about the money. Bill was all about the skirts, he could care less about the power and the money he is just a backwoods skirt chaser at heart. And that is probably what so many women found attractive about that poor little bad boy. She on the other hand....well it was and is and always will be about the money.
That is some great insight. Thanks for the why rich "good girls" chase after "bad boys." I went to a college that had a seminary attached. Cheerleaders chased the "preacher boys" (who were as human as all the other guys, as well). One of the preacher boys had a car that he left the ignition key in. And a little sign that said "Feed My Sheep." Guys and gals could use his car for errands, if we'd fill it up after. Gas was .31 cents per gallon.
Yes, I practically furnished our first apartment with them. I particularly remember a pair of American colonial lamps with amber glass bases. Gold was very popular then along with avacado green which I was not into.
Liberals cannot conceive of the idea that people can be religious. That they can have a faith and be devoted to a doctrine whether Muslim Buddhist Christian Jewish etc. because they cannot accept that idea they don’t bother to educate themselves about those beliefs. Anyone with the most basic understanding of Islam would predict that Muslims would behave the way we are witnessing. My only question is what took them so long?
Whether you are Muslim, Christian, Jewish or full-blown Atheist, if you have even a grain of common sense, you can see that what the Left is attempting to do is brainwashing and grooming innocent children into their deviant mindset and lifestyles, to the incomprehensibly deranged extreme of literally mutilating them.
This is not a religious battle (though every religion happens to recognize its wickedness).
Opposition to it is a rational, human response to a deadly and violent enemy, attacking the most innocent and defenseless of us all.
There is no middle ground on this. There is no sane defense for this. It must be crushed with a vengeance.
Actually, while I understand your sentiment, "This is not a religious battle," it is a MORAL battle, and every moral philosophy is based on some religious or spiritual foundation.
Otherwise, we're just animals in a battle for "survival of the fittest."
The left has their "religion": it is self-worship (while not valuing others around them) and has led them to make abortion and "saving the earth" their sacraments. They have flipped the value system of most religions upside-down (in which human life would be chosen over saving a bug, a fish or a plant). While I agree that they can't fully rationalize their beliefs and belief system, they're still convinced of its "truth".
And they've managed to spread it through our culture today (in part because historic religious faiths have been rejected in a preference for "science" - another mistake of believing "you must choose either/or." Modern science is actually the result of deep Christian faith and observation of the order and logic in nature).
What angers me about the Leftists in this story is what I believe is dishonest motive. They want everyone to believe they were kind to the Muslim community out of humanitarian concern. If they truly held that emotion and motive, they would apply it to all groups in need. They don't.
I believe they are doing what they always do. That is, to manipulate their public perception by adapting to any opportunity or cause to advance their own position. In short, they are opportunistic manipulators to gain control at the expense of their opposing (conservative) parties.
What they just found out is their constant relative "causes" have no morally consistent base, and therefore, can't make all people happy all the time. When a system of faith (Christianity or Muslim) is the basis of interpreting conduct, there is little relative variance. It is a solid faith. Against this, the moral relativism of lunatic leftists is exposed for what it is: A fraud.
I’ll go you one further. At the time that these libs were being so supportive of Muslims, we were at war with Islam, no matter what GW Bush said. I believe that all of the “kindness” they directed at Muslims was nothing more than one more way for them to practice and exhibit their hatred of America.
Liberals have house pets and they are only useful to give them victories. If they stray, they are told they are ungrateful.
In Canada last week we had thousands of parents protesting across the country, including Montreal and our protests are lively because the anarchists/Black Bloc (Antifa for you guys) always show up, about LGBT+ curriculum in schools for school children. Muslim parents were front and centre in the protests. The parents' points were that the content was inappropriate and their kids were too young for it. The most important point, though, they made is that parents have a right to know whether their kids are questioning their sexuality. Prime Minister Justin Trudeau tweeted about the Canada-wide protests, saying "Transphobia, homophobia, and biphobia have no place in this country. " This just days before he and his Liberal government invited a Ukrainian Nazi from the Second World War to Parliament, where this 98-year-old got a standing ovation from all parties!!!! Oh, Canada.......
Sophie has her own history and has been linked to British actor Idris Elba. Sophie was also regularly seen in a restaurant in a small town near Montreal, where both my brother and a photographer friend of mine, live with a man who was not Justin. This was years ago, but it would seem like the problems were always there.
Are we sure it wasn't always a "marriage" of convenience (ala the Clintons, and the only one man enough to mate with Hillary was Webb Hubbell?), and that it simply outlived its purpose?
Reminds of the old joke when Pierre Trudeau was PM. His wife, Margaret, was known to have had many affairs before, during, and after their marriage. The joke was that as PM, Pierre had f**ked half of Canada and Margaret had f**ked the other half.
The old Nazi was invited because that grifter Zelensky was in Canada and was honoured by our government. Apparently, there was some kind of "mix up" and the Speaker of the House who introduced the old Nazi realized what had happened when he read the notes to Parliament that he was given which said: He fought against Russia, etc. etc. (Remember Russia was supposedly on our side.) The Speaker dude's face fell after reading those words. The Speaker, Anthony Rota, has since resigned. The Canadian Jewish community is outraged and this also happened during Yom Kippur, but the main lobbying organization representing them still supports the Ukraine-Russia war. What a f@cked up world we live in.
Yes, I think Freeland is the boss. But she will never be prime minister. She is like Hillary. Apparently, Freeland's grandfather was a proud Ukrainian Nazi. Freeleand is also a WEF accolyte. WEF which stands for wicked, evil facists.
I believe many aren't seeing the power and influence has over the west. Just think why is it so many of the same problems are happening at the same time? Immigration, crime, covid mandates, vaccine , abortion, drugs, homelessness, transgender, grooming, climate change control.
One would think that leaders of nation states would have picked up a world history course and especially one concerning the alliances during WWII.
Do you think Trudeau et.al. knew about the potential embarrassment but took that chance to float a re-write of history? I suspect one day that lie could gain traction.
Well Sophie, as I went to bed last night, I read that several liberal rank and file members were requesting the whole ugly thing be stricken from the daily records. So if that goes (and why does it sound like it might?), despite the fact that the whole world saw it, officially, it never happened!!!
One would think none of those variously sexed individuals knew anything at all about Muslim ideology. Nor did they know anything of how gays et al are treated in Islamic countries.
When I was a Naval reservist back in the mid-80s, they were recruiting folks to switch rates to EOD. I gave it some consideration. Better pay and better toys. Out of consideration for my wife and mother, though, I decided against it. Hats off to your and yours.
Thanks so much. The job suits him to the ground and i have dibs on the real estate labelled I Want What My Child Wants. The toys ( and support) are swell in MARSOC. He works with the best and will stay there full term.
I voted for the tears. I even have a drink tumbler labeled "Liberal Tears." My son is more conservative than I am, so I gave it to him to sit on his desk. (Like your kid would ever wash their own dishes!)
This is so basic it’s hard to comprehend how ANY parent any where doesn’t get it. But if you know any real liberal parent, and you appreciate their adoration of virtue signalling, I bet y’all would be horrified to find out that in the deepest cavern of that twisted mind, they yearn for a gay child.
In truth, I’m not comfortable with Muslims, or Islam. I’m not comfortable with the hatred and death that emanates from their Holy Texts, I’m not comfortable, with the wording of their daily prayer, I’m not comfortable with the sermons their religious leaders give in a layered language I, and probably you, as well as our SIGINT services, don’t understand. I’m not comfortable with what i see happening in Europe (and that includes England) and you don’t have to go farther than Minnesota or Michigan to see the beginnings of it over here. Some of their religious practices, especially the ones centered around ‘giving up something useful to man’ make my hair stand on end.
Having said that, i have, and would again stand shoulder to shoulder with them, in this fight for the well being of my Grand-Children. Maybe this is the way for the beginning of a new dialogue with them to reform their religion here in North America. The Christians have had their Reformations and so have the Jews…now its their turn!
"It is almost as if they supported Muslims not out of a selfless sense of duty, but to collect chits and register voters."
I say:
It is only to get information and use it for LIBERAL causes. It took me three times to register as a republican and the only thing that happened is that I now receive 10 TIMES the amount of solicitations I used to get four years ago. If you want to know how you got on all these mailing lists, that's how. There is big money in selling information.
As far as the Muslims go, let them live their lives in peace. Besides, I would rather have a Muslim as a neighbor than a liberal (Called a "Karen" in today's parlance).
If they’d only let everyone else live their life in peace. Check out the wording used in their prayers…ya know the 5x a day thing. The Saturday People are my guys, the Jews, The Sunday People are you guys, the Christians. They say it 19x a day…thats 6935x a year. But I’m sure they don’t mean it!
…and sorry, but 9/11 still kinda rubs me the wrong way.
Agree totally, Chuck. Although to Tony's point, living next to a Karen is painful. I live next to three women I would qualify as Karens in varying degrees.
Sorry to hear that. Perhaps you can use the "share" button on Don's Substack to "help" them. He's a pretty straight shooter and might give them something substantial to believe instead of their constant whining. . . .just sayin.
They have such a weak sense of spiritual identity, that their political identity has become what gives them value as a person, and therefore is sacred and it is taboo to challenge them. Sad, because in reality they are living on thin ice, not solid ground. And they can't let you get close enough to them to challenge it, because deep down they do dimly sense that you could cause their world, and self value, and very identity to come crumbling down.
Man without God is a hollow shell. How desperate those folks are then, to cling to a substitute sense of self.
I am an A type personality that was medically retired. I have had to reinvent my identity several times over the course of my lifetime. Attaching that hard to a world view is a very dangerous thing as you pointed out especially one not in reality.
Let me ask you something, Chuck. Do you really believe that a bum living is in a cave watching homosexual porn really pulled off the biggest act of terrorism the world has ever seen?? The Bin Laden family may have been wealthy, but Osama had none of it. That was a very well planned MILITARY operation.
You know Tony, other than Flight 93, it went off without a hitch. And the simplicity of it centered on the determination of the terrorists, and their capacity to use horrific violence starting with their use of those ubiquitous box cutters. I think given the amount of $ we gave and continue to give to the people who hate us, and its use to buy info, and train people who think paradise with the 72 virgins is where its at, I do think he and his minions where capable of pulling it off. I’ll tell you what I think they didn’t take into account, was that the buildings would actually collapse.
There are plenty of examples in blessed History of small well organized units punching over their weight and pulling off upsets.
There have been many instances of a small group overpowering a much larger group and story of the Trojan Horse is right up there. As far as WHO was the mastermind was, I only said who it wasn't. As far as the minions you speak of...,..you pay someone enough money, they will do what you want. The word on the street was the supposed terrorists were not told it was a suicide mission--only the men in charge of the mission knew.
You are assuming that all of the hijackers knew they were going to fly into the buildings and I think only the pilots did. In my dealings with humanity, I believe most people WANT to live except for the drug addicted street people.
Me too. Sept. 11, 2001 I was at work on the 25th floor of our glass-walled office building. At the announcement of the attack, word was that all sky scrapers were at risk. That sapphire blue sky will always be an omen, even if it is the loveliest color God ever created.
Chuck, I live about a mile from a mosque and many Muslims live in my neighborhood. For the most part, they want to live the American dream just like all my grandparents did and let the rest of us follow our own beliefs.
I have had Muslim neighbors -- from Morocco, the first foreign nation to recognize our independence -- and I agree with you. It's not whether a person is Muslim, Jewish, Christian -- whatever. Even "gay". Those are just labels. It's the character of the individual that matters.
Judge people on the content of their character. A Moroccan immigrant woman helped me raise my kids for 15 years while I was busy working at my career day and night. She is a saint and my kids and I are still in contact with her and her family. They are wonderful people based on their characters.
While nobody was looking, Donald Trump won the War on Terror. (Another of his unacknowledged accomplishments.) His tighter border, destruction of ISIS, assassination of international miscreants like Sulamaini, and smart diplomacy such as the alliance against terrorism with Egypt, Saudi Arabia and the UAE, and the Abraham Accords sent a message to bad actors that terrorism would get them nowhere. That has taken the issue off the table for American Muslims and allowed them to come forward on these critical issues.
Well Jewish, Islamic and Christian believers are all people of The Book. Despite centuries of conflict, there is a fair amount of common ground. The LGBT+ and other evil lobby groups pushing us together as allies, much like Russian sanctions are pushing Russia and China together. Ah! The unintended consequences of failing consider how other will respond to your behavior, rules, regulations, laws, etc.
That lesbian lady wailing about how Muslims "owe" the gay community made my day. Just goes to show you that the Democratic Party has never gotten the slavery thing out of their blood when it comes black and brown people. Remember, they don't care about the issue, they just like telling other people what to do.
"The enemy of my enemy is my friend."
"What goes around comes around."
Liberals think they're immune from reality. Nope, and it's glorious.
the contemporary left is at war with reality on many fronts: the mass media; the climate scare; the plethora of hoaxes related to covid; the pretense that their politicians are competent and non-felonious; the double standard regarding claims of electoral malfeasance; separating sex from biology whether in eugenics, abortion, the unspeakable crime against nature, or medical/surgical transvetitism; "born that way"; etc.
Maxim 29:
The enemy of my enemy is my enemy's enemy. No more, no less.

You must believe, think, feel and behave precisely in accordance with Progressives’ beliefs to be a good person, in their view. No margin for “diversity”. So narcissistic!
And those beliefs are subject to change without a moment's notoice
Their definitions of words change constantly too. I'm not sure but I think Bill Clinton started that with what "is" means.
The left's co-opting of the lexicon started way before Clinton. They understand the importance of words, and began re-defining them long ago.
Beginning with pop culture, in TV sitcoms, the word, 'family' was the first casualty.
So true. Wrong is now Right, according to the left.
And claim the sole right without a moment's notice to re-define what they had re-defined, to suit their latest insane agendas.
AMEN!!
They are also subject to change without a moment's thought.
My guess is that Congress is 80/20 dims and rino's over conservatives. Am I low?
Yes. Might be as bad as 98-2.
you might like my last post-CRAZY (orange circle)
Yes they are.
So right. Narcissism is a mental illness which plagues the leftists at abnormally high rates. That's why I call them Lunatic Leftists.
good article to that point: https://www.city-journal.org/article/the-cluster-b-society
Exactly! Good article. Thanks for sharing the link.
Very good article-was not aware of Cluster B. Clicked on you from Don Surber's post-bet you get a lot more. (my comment to CJ)
Excellent article! Thanks for sharing!!

I highly doubted it, but admit I hadn't given it a lot of thought. Patriotism means different things, I understand, according to one's upbringing.

Short answer is: No. Hillary does not love her country.
True-click on moral corruption and you get Hillary's picture.
Hillary came from a upper middle class family there are no excuses for her lack of patriotism, and I actually don't think that is the issue. Hillary is what my mother used to call "money hungry", she puts money above all else. I think she would sell her entire family if someone offered her a number that she considered acceptable.

You must be slightly younger than I am. I remember when it was 29, and you got green stamps
S and H green?
Yes, I practically furnished our first apartment with them. I particularly remember a pair of American colonial lamps with amber glass bases. Gold was very popular then along with avacado green which I was not into.
she loves what she can grift from it. and she would love to use the powers of government to punish "deplorables"
Remember she spells her name Hi$$ary
I'm glad you brought her into the conversation. The Reckoning for H.C. and Merrick Garland occurs simultaneously in October 2024. Look forward to it.
NO!

I concur.
Perhaps instead of “human” response, moral would bemore to the point.
Though even in nature, you don’t mess with a bear’s cubs.
Plus I don’t want to allow them to put this battle in a strictly religious box.
Very well put Suzie!!!!

Oh, Canada.......
My wife is Canadian, and has nothing but contempt for Mr. Castreau.
I predict Ms. Justin Trudeau will be the next politician to come out of the closet.
Well now that he has separated from his wife, Sophie, they can both start dating other men.
Sophie has her own history and has been linked to British actor Idris Elba. Sophie was also regularly seen in a restaurant in a small town near Montreal, where both my brother and a photographer friend of mine, live with a man who was not Justin. This was years ago, but it would seem like the problems were always there.

Many politician marriages are for convenience. Look at all the divorces when they leave office.
It's a maybe on that one.
Reminds of the old joke when Pierre Trudeau was PM. His wife, Margaret, was known to have had many affairs before, during, and after their marriage. The joke was that as PM, Pierre had f**ked half of Canada and Margaret had f**ked the other half.

More like "Oy, Canada!"
The old Nazi was invited because that grifter Zelensky was in Canada and was honoured by our government.

Know what Lu, this whole fiasco has underlined something that now seems obvious to me. Trudeau’s not the real boss…Freeland is!
Yes, I think Freeland is the boss. But she will never be prime minister. She is like Hillary. Apparently, Freeland's grandfather was a proud Ukrainian Nazi. Freeleand is also a WEF accolyte. WEF which stands for wicked, evil facists.
I believe many aren't seeing the power and influence has over the west. Just think why is it so many of the same problems are happening at the same time? Immigration, crime, covid mandates, vaccine , abortion, drugs, homelessness, transgender, grooming, climate change control.
The WEF and the WHO are evil.
Right on all your points Lu. This WEF thing has gotten way out of hand, Swabbinklause claims to own half of our parliament
WEF equals wicked evil fascists. I also include Bill Gates in this group. There are many Western liberal politicians who are affiliated with the WEF.
One would think that leaders of nation states would have picked up a world history course and especially one concerning the alliances during WWII.
Do you think Trudeau et.al. knew about the potential embarrassment but took that chance to float a re-write of history? I suspect one day that lie could gain traction.

Trudeau is such an idiot that I don't know what to believe or why we had the embarassment of honouring an aging Nazi.
Oy vey, Canada.
Yep, that too!
Backatcha'-I also feel their pain-ours's is worse-We're living in the Age of Obama-one more rigged election will make it complete.
Castreaux is a graduate of the World Economic Forum. I expect nothing less from this Marxist narcissistic cretin.
Libs: "But, but, but, you OWE us!"
Muslims: "Mmmm, not so much."
What the Libs are really saying is "We own you." Golly gee, Sgt Carter, guess what the response to that insane statement was.
One would think none of those variously sexed individuals knew anything at all about Muslim ideology. Nor did they know anything of how gays et al are treated in Islamic countries.
When I was a Naval reservist back in the mid-80s, they were recruiting folks to switch rates to EOD. I gave it some consideration. Better pay and better toys. Out of consideration for my wife and mother, though, I decided against it. Hats off to your and yours.
What is "EOD"?
Thanks so much. The job suits him to the ground and i have dibs on the real estate labelled I Want What My Child Wants. The toys ( and support) are swell in MARSOC. He works with the best and will stay there full term.
"One mans terrorist is another man's freedom fighter..." Gotta love liberal tears under any circumstance.
I voted for the tears. I even have a drink tumbler labeled "Liberal Tears." My son is more conservative than I am, so I gave it to him to sit on his desk. (Like your kid would ever wash their own dishes!)
Yeah, all three kids of ours make Ronaldus Magnus appear liberal and it is awesome.
Mine too, especially when it comes to the whole tranny idiocy and to covid.
This is so basic it’s hard to comprehend how ANY parent any where doesn’t get it. But if you know any real liberal parent, and you appreciate their adoration of virtue signalling, I bet y’all would be horrified to find out that in the deepest cavern of that twisted mind, they yearn for a gay child.
In truth, I’m not comfortable with Muslims, or Islam. I’m not comfortable with the hatred and death that emanates from their Holy Texts, I’m not comfortable, with the wording of their daily prayer, I’m not comfortable with the sermons their religious leaders give in a layered language I, and probably you, as well as our SIGINT services, don’t understand. I’m not comfortable with what i see happening in Europe (and that includes England) and you don’t have to go farther than Minnesota or Michigan to see the beginnings of it over here. Some of their religious practices, especially the ones centered around ‘giving up something useful to man’ make my hair stand on end.
Having said that, i have, and would again stand shoulder to shoulder with them, in this fight for the well being of my Grand-Children. Maybe this is the way for the beginning of a new dialogue with them to reform their religion here in North America. The Christians have had their Reformations and so have the Jews…now its their turn!
". . . they yearn for a gay child."
No longer. They yearn for a "trans" child. Witness the Hollywood A-list celebrities who adopt little boys and try to turn them into little girls.
I am not comfortable with ,the religion Islam either. However, as I said above, my kids' nanny was a Muslim and we became good friends.
And, yes, I would stand with Muslims, all parents, for the well-being of all of our children.
The article said:
"It is almost as if they supported Muslims not out of a selfless sense of duty, but to collect chits and register voters."
I say:
It is only to get information and use it for LIBERAL causes. It took me three times to register as a republican and the only thing that happened is that I now receive 10 TIMES the amount of solicitations I used to get four years ago. If you want to know how you got on all these mailing lists, that's how. There is big money in selling information.
As far as the Muslims go, let them live their lives in peace. Besides, I would rather have a Muslim as a neighbor than a liberal (Called a "Karen" in today's parlance).
"
Aye, there’s the rub…
If they’d only let everyone else live their life in peace. Check out the wording used in their prayers…ya know the 5x a day thing. The Saturday People are my guys, the Jews, The Sunday People are you guys, the Christians. They say it 19x a day…thats 6935x a year. But I’m sure they don’t mean it!
…and sorry, but 9/11 still kinda rubs me the wrong way.
Agree totally, Chuck. Although to Tony's point, living next to a Karen is painful. I live next to three women I would qualify as Karens in varying degrees.
Sorry to hear that. Perhaps you can use the "share" button on Don's Substack to "help" them. He's a pretty straight shooter and might give them something substantial to believe instead of their constant whining. . . .just sayin.
The thing with the Karens that is so annoying is their self-righteousness and they are absolutely convinced of it.
And when you show them proof they are wrong, they double down like what you have doesnt counterdict what they said. Hello?
and YELL!!!!!
They have such a weak sense of spiritual identity, that their political identity has become what gives them value as a person, and therefore is sacred and it is taboo to challenge them. Sad, because in reality they are living on thin ice, not solid ground. And they can't let you get close enough to them to challenge it, because deep down they do dimly sense that you could cause their world, and self value, and very identity to come crumbling down.
Man without God is a hollow shell. How desperate those folks are then, to cling to a substitute sense of self.
I am an A type personality that was medically retired. I have had to reinvent my identity several times over the course of my lifetime. Attaching that hard to a world view is a very dangerous thing as you pointed out especially one not in reality.
Let me ask you something, Chuck. Do you really believe that a bum living is in a cave watching homosexual porn really pulled off the biggest act of terrorism the world has ever seen?? The Bin Laden family may have been wealthy, but Osama had none of it. That was a very well planned MILITARY operation.
You know Tony, other than Flight 93, it went off without a hitch. And the simplicity of it centered on the determination of the terrorists, and their capacity to use horrific violence starting with their use of those ubiquitous box cutters. I think given the amount of $ we gave and continue to give to the people who hate us, and its use to buy info, and train people who think paradise with the 72 virgins is where its at, I do think he and his minions where capable of pulling it off. I’ll tell you what I think they didn’t take into account, was that the buildings would actually collapse.
There are plenty of examples in blessed History of small well organized units punching over their weight and pulling off upsets.
There have been many instances of a small group overpowering a much larger group and story of the Trojan Horse is right up there. As far as WHO was the mastermind was, I only said who it wasn't. As far as the minions you speak of...,..you pay someone enough money, they will do what you want. The word on the street was the supposed terrorists were not told it was a suicide mission--only the men in charge of the mission knew.
Maybe, but that even tightens the circle.
But surely they knew they WOULD die if they flew a plane into a building?
You are assuming that all of the hijackers knew they were going to fly into the buildings and I think only the pilots did. In my dealings with humanity, I believe most people WANT to live except for the drug addicted street people.
Me too. Sept. 11, 2001 I was at work on the 25th floor of our glass-walled office building. At the announcement of the attack, word was that all sky scrapers were at risk. That sapphire blue sky will always be an omen, even if it is the loveliest color God ever created.
Chuck, I live about a mile from a mosque and many Muslims live in my neighborhood. For the most part, they want to live the American dream just like all my grandparents did and let the rest of us follow our own beliefs.
I have had Muslim neighbors -- from Morocco, the first foreign nation to recognize our independence -- and I agree with you. It's not whether a person is Muslim, Jewish, Christian -- whatever. Even "gay". Those are just labels. It's the character of the individual that matters.
Judge people on the content of their character. A Moroccan immigrant woman helped me raise my kids for 15 years while I was busy working at my career day and night. She is a saint and my kids and I are still in contact with her and her family. They are wonderful people based on their characters.
While nobody was looking, Donald Trump won the War on Terror. (Another of his unacknowledged accomplishments.) His tighter border, destruction of ISIS, assassination of international miscreants like Sulamaini, and smart diplomacy such as the alliance against terrorism with Egypt, Saudi Arabia and the UAE, and the Abraham Accords sent a message to bad actors that terrorism would get them nowhere. That has taken the issue off the table for American Muslims and allowed them to come forward on these critical issues.
I think the Abraham Accords are a major achievement for Trump.
Well Jewish, Islamic and Christian believers are all people of The Book. Despite centuries of conflict, there is a fair amount of common ground. The LGBT+ and other evil lobby groups pushing us together as allies, much like Russian sanctions are pushing Russia and China together. Ah! The unintended consequences of failing consider how other will respond to your behavior, rules, regulations, laws, etc.
LGBTQ+ is a pain in the butt.
Literally!
That lesbian lady wailing about how Muslims "owe" the gay community made my day. Just goes to show you that the Democratic Party has never gotten the slavery thing out of their blood when it comes black and brown people. Remember, they don't care about the issue, they just like telling other people what to do.
