Jihad and the social (dis)order
I have been reading a book about Islam. It's not like some of it is new. It's just a re-realization that Islamo-fascists will lie, cheat, murder and steal if it will further Islam. That includes enslaving you and I in a religion that degrades women, forces people to convert to Islam and kills those who don't. I am frustrated that some of my fellow Americans are focusing their energies on their political opposition rather than the real enemy. The fact is that our enemy seeks to not only destroy us but to take us over. They will not stop until we all are under their thumb, a stark contrast to not only my Christian faith but our American culture (Christian or not). I am coming to the understanding that this is a religious war. Whether you are a Christian, Jew, Atheist it doesn't matter. We must be willing to stand up to them just as we did the Nazi's. We must reclaim our cultural and spiritual heritage. Unlike Cindy Sheehan I think America is worth fighting for.

We understand Cindy Sheehan
We can certainly relate to Cindy Sheehan, to her grief and her anger and sadness. I have friends who are in Iraq on their third tour. They are putting their lives on the line every day. Her son served honorably and gave sacrificially. I have seen a lot of posts and the news is full here in the states about this and what she is doing. Her own family however has (see Drudge Report) asked her to stop pushing her political agenda and let them grieve in peace. Here is a site that will also interest you about this subject and another that describes some of the tactics those groups who are supporting her have stooped to...including supporting terrorists and raiding recruiting offices.

Unemployment at a 40 year low!
|
Labor Report: Payrolls grow solidly WASHINGTON, DC -- U.S. employers added a healthy 207,000 net new jobs in July, the government said Friday in a report cited as evidence that the economy's momentum from the spring was carrying into the second half of the year. The job gains were enough to keep the unemployment rate at a 40-year low of 5%. In addition, the Labor Department lifted its estimates of job growth for the previous two months by a combined 42,000.

This is a follow up to a post about David Salie here. (from MSNBC)
In times of war, military families make extraordinary sacrifices. And no one knows that better than the Salie family. Its men have served in every conflict since World War II, living to tell the tale each time.
Recently the family sent two brave brothers off to Iraq, praying the good luck would hold. But fate wouldn't be so kind this time, and the Salie family was about to discover what one of their own would give for his country, and the unexpected gift he would give to them.
Two brothers, both soldiers, joking in front of their relatives, the day before a deployment for dangerous duty in Iraq. They don't know it yet but this is the beginning of the most powerful chapter in their family’s long history of patriotism and courage.
David Salie, 34, joined the Army right out of high school and made a career as a non-commissioned officer serving in Panama, Haiti and the first Gulf war.
Younger brother Brian, 30, went to West Point and served in the 101st Airborne at Fort Campbell, Kentucky. Military service has been a family tradition for three generations.
"I'm very, very, very proud of them two boys, I’ll tell ya," says grandfather Leonard.
Leonard Sallie survived bloody battles in both World War II and the Korean War. He says even as young boys his grandsons seemed destined to become soldiers.
"They'd pitch their pup tent out there in the woods and stay there all night, playing Army and shoot at each other with bee-bee guns,” he says.
The boys’ father, Jim, did two tours in Vietnam and retired as a Lt. Colonel after the first Gulf war. He too knew early that at the very least his very least his first born son David would wear a uniform.
Iran Defies West, Resumes Nuclear WorkBy ALI AKBAR DAREINI, Associated Press Writer
Iran stepped up its confrontation with the West over its nuclear program, restarting work at a uranium conversion facility Monday in a move the United States and Europe have warned will prompt them to seek U.N. sanctions.

Bin Laden, the Left, and Jihad (David Lange as posted on Chrenkoff)
Bin Laden's video monologue that aired shortly before the 2004 U.S. election sounded as though it had been vetted with the Democratic National Committee. Complete with references lifted directly from Fahrenheit 9/11, many on the left waved it as proof that the U.S. intervention in Iraq was the reason for al-Qaida's violence and if John Kerry became President our differences could be settled peacefully. While the video demonstrated the desperateness of Mr. Laden's situation, the left's wishful thinking demonstrated how high the stakes are for liberals as well. Both are fighting to salvage their world-view. Mr. Laden understands that if the West believes the liberal mantra, it provides him a valuable strategic advantage so he gladly reinforces what liberals want to hear. Meanwhile, liberals and their sycophants in the media seemed determined to ignore all the evidence concerning jihadists' real motives because it threatens their doctrine of rational multicultural relativism. (They are both self serving aren't they? -eb) Mr. Laden's pre-election video merged these complimentary agendas. Read the rest of this entry ...
