The Senior Conservative

The 5th Column

By Dick O'Connor

We don't need Liberals, Utopians, Socialists, and Progressives telling us that we are better than the enemy is and therefore we should not react in kind. We don't need to wait any longer to identify the enemy. We don't need the liberal media, which has constantly written in praise of the enemy, telling us to go slow. We don't need the approval of the United Nations before we move. We don't need an environmental impact report before we proceed. We know what to do, and we know who the enemy is.

Starting in the Philippines, we have Muslim 'rebels' taking hostages and beheading some of them, to gain power they cannot obtain through the ballot box. Then in Afghanistan in western Asia, we have the Taliban Party ruling the country after being victorious in driving out most of the more moderate Muslims. Moving east, we find the Pakistani Muslims who are fighting with India over Kashmir. The liberal media insists on calling them by the romantic name "rebel", not characterizing then by their true intention, which is insurgency. Then we go further east and come to Chechnya, where the Muslims are trying to pry the province away from Russia. The media calls them 'rebels'. Further east, we come to Kosovo where the Albanian Muslims are trying to take over Kosovo from Serbia. Then we move to Macedonia, where the Muslims want more territory from Macedonia and more power. None of the leaders of these Islamic insurgency movements are democratically elected. It is the re-birth of the Ottoman Empire!

Any theocracy (religion-dominated government) is determined to rule the world. The Papal States of Europe did the same thing in the Middle Ages. The theocracy of Islam is trying to do it today. The Founding Fathers of our country desperately tried to keep a distance between Church and State, and now we know why.

There are 'moderate' Muslims who tell us that what happened in New York and Washington was wrong. But these same moderates secretly rejoice at every Muslim gain. The celebrations in Ramallah and Gaza City and Nablus and Baghdad were forbidden to the news media by the Palestinian Authority and by Saddam Hussein, according to the World Tribune 9/13. We will not see them. They are celebrating the blow dealt to America. It will be hard to convince any American that Islam means us no harm.

Yet we must divorce emotion from our reaction to the activities of Islam. We must neutralize the Muslim threat in this country at the same time that we strike back at the Middle Eastern nations. This can be accomplished without bloodshed or massacre. Still the Socialist media will call it 'ethnic cleansing' and condemn us even if we manage to protect every Muslim life. Those Muslims who do not want to be shipped back to their country of origin can be impounded, just as the Japanese were impounded in WWII. In confinement, they will do us no harm. When terrorism is defeated in the world, we can free them and perhaps even compensate them. Our country, our freedom, our very way of life is at stake. We must protect ourselves. We don't need to be told by some politicians and some religious leaders that we must not be guilty of 'hate' crimes against this religion. Those of us who do violence against the Muslims are simply reacting to the devastation of Sept 11. That cannot be described as a 'hate' crime, no matter what our leaders say.

May God help us to do the right thing and may God Bless America!
