Atlas Podcast on Islamic Bosnia

Published by Foehammer 2 years, 8 months ago in Multimedia, Eurabia, Radio, Kosovo and Serbia.

From Hugh Fitzgerald’s ‘95 things that fuel Muslim extremism’:

79. The refusal of Orthodox priests in monasteries in Bosnia and Kosovo to abandon the monasteries to Muslims who are clamoring to destroy them.

Mu’ammar Al-Qaddafi had this to say in a speech delivered in May of 2006:

We have fifty million Muslims in Europe. There are signs that Allah will grant Islam victory in Europe - without swords, without guns, without conquests. The fifty million Muslims of Europe will turn it into a Muslim continent within a few decades.

Allah mobilizes the Muslim nation of Turkey, and adds it to the European Union. That’s another 50 million Muslims. There will be 100 million Muslims in Europe. Albania, which is a Muslim country, has already entered the EU. Bosnia, which is a Muslim country, has already entered the EU. 50 percent of its citizens are Muslims.

Pamela over at Atlas Shrugs has done a couple of very informative interviews side-by-side that I believe many of you should hear. The discussion centers around the continuing lies that surround the Bosnian conflict and the absolutely insane idea of promoting the creation of an Islamic state inside the borders of Europe by giving Kosovo its independence from Serbia. This is a foolish move that is endorsed by our very own President George W. Bush. Of course the neighboring and already Islamic state of Albania is promoting the idea of Kosovo’s independence. If anyone believes for one second that all of this will not just lead to further Muslim aggression in Eastern Europe, you haven’t been paying attention since 9-11.

As I’m fully aware that all these talks of the former Yugoslav states and their Balkan neighbors can get very confusing for most Americans, here’s a map to clarify the region involved:

Defense against Islam helped forge the United States of America

Published by Foehammer 2 years, 8 months ago in Islam in America, War with Islam, History, Education, Thomas Jefferson, U.S. Military and United States.

“Facts are stubborn things; and what ever may be our wishes, our inclinations, or the dictates of our passions, they can not alter the state of facts, and evidence.” -John Adams

Happy Independence Day!

Today I bring you some interesting facts that came as quite a revelation to me. History is a deep well, you see; so deep that we can never possibly learn it all, no matter how much we study, how many books we might own or read. But that’s the richest part of history, that we can never stop learning from it as long as we have the courage and wisdom to seek it out. In that spirit, here is something that I believe you will find quite appropriate for this 4th of July. It is Christopher Hitchens’ book review of Victory in Tripoli: How America’s War with the Barbary Pirates Established the U.S. Navy and Shaped a Nation by Joshua E. London, a great book that I highly recommend. From this review you shall quickly understand why. (I have added the additional relevant quotes from Founding Fathers for more spice):

“The vanquished may purchase their lives [from Islam], by the payment of tribute.” -John Quincy Adams

One should never overlook the horrors of peace. Between 1750 and 1815, according to the best modern historians, the Barbary states (actually the North African states of the Ottoman Empire) took as many as a million and a half Americans and Europeans into slavery. These monarchies (today’s Algeria, Morocco, Libya, and Tunisia) also took part in a north-south version of the Atlantic African slave trade, but their attitude to their ‘white’ or ‘Christian’ captives was slightly different. For a price, these could be redeemed. For a higher tariff, the pirate states would agree to abstain from taking ships or hostages in the first place. This latter price had a tendency to increase the more often it was paid.

There was also a slave-market at Malta for North Africans, operated by Christian merchants, because this conflict had been going on intermittently, in the Mediterranean, ever since the battle of Lepanto. But when Thomas Jefferson and John Adams waited upon a Barbary ambassador in London, in the years after the revolution, they pointed out that the United States had no quarrel with the Muslim world. Oh, yes it did, replied the ambassador. The Qur’an gave permission, as of right, to plunder and enslave all unbelievers.

The Barbary states probably had an imperfect idea of the potential strength of the United States. At all events, they were surprised when, beginning with the Jefferson administration, naval squadrons began to appear off their coasts and to demand, at cannon-point, the liberation of the hostages as well as free trade and free passage from the Atlantic. This was America’s first war overseas and the first time that the Stars and Stripes were planted on foreign soil. I had known that the first line of the Marine Corps hymn, “From the halls of Montezuma to the shores of Tripoli,” derived from this episode. I had not known, until I read London’s book, that Francis Scott Key adapted The Star-Spangled Banner from a song he had written in celebration of William Eaton’s victory over the sultan of Tripoli in 1805.

There is much else to be learned from London’s impressive study, which not only describes the campaign itself in enthralling detail but also analyzes the war within the war: the many domestic disputes and political quarrels that delayed final victory. (Mr. Jefferson does not come off as well as I had previously thought.) Here is an essential piece of U.S. history that ,like the name Stephen Decatur, is no longer taught in school. By the end of the conflict, not only did the Muslim world know that it had to reckon with the United States but so did the European powers who, having long paid the ‘tribute’ to Barbary, had just exhausted themselves at Waterloo. Moreover, the new republic had acquired a battle-hardened navy and marine corps, which was to be of great service in the war of 1812 and beyond. Victory in Tripoli was in every sense a hinge event.

Christopher Hitchens
Vanity Fair columnist and author of Thomas Jefferson: Author of America

“…it is absolutely necessary to undeceive those who, from the ignorant or unfair translations [of the koran] which have appeared, have entertained too favourable an opinion of the original…” -Thomas Jefferson

Go enjoy the fireworks; they should have even more meaning for you and your family tonight.

God bless America.
