CIVILIZATION IS AGAIN AT A DANGEROUS CROSSROAD
By Chuck MacNab

We are severely at risk when we must defend ourselves against an ideology where masses of individuals are sworn to willingly, perhaps eagerly, eradicate others who do not share in their beliefs. Yet we have political leaders who are, for whatever reasons, unwilling to connect the dots. They seem so ignorant of history and so fearful of not being re-elected to office that they ignore the necessity of mounting an adequate defense against what could develop into the worst disaster the world has ever known. The leadership of the free world must stop its pontificating and act to stop the radical Muslims, supported by Obama Administration policy, from gaining control. In fact, the difficult decision we must make is to wipe them out before they wipe us out! Western civilization is once again battling a horde of Muslim radicals that are renewing an old Medieval wish to subjugate the world.

We were recently presented with the following questions.

*            WHY is the Obama administration cutting the legs out from under our allies?    
*            Whose side is Obama on?

One answer could be that Obama's Iranian born primary advisor, Valerie Jarrett (behind the scenes) could be attempting to degrade U.S. power and disrupt decision making to the advantage of America's enemies. She, and others of the left wing persuasion, could have a "grand scheme" of their own. She must be familiar with history and that for centuries Muslim leaders have been battling over a large part of the Middle East, Asia and Africa! In light of the near total collapse of American foreign policy since the Obama Administration has been in power, the time to stop asking questions about what Obama is up to has long passed. Whatever it is, it is beyond any doubt working to the benefit of those who want to kill Westerners and eliminate American culture. What is happening should be obvious. The evidence is in. In the case of a disease, you may not know precisely what killed the patient but you can certainly see that the chosen treatment didn't work and draw common sense conclusions! The time to arrive at those conclusions and take effective action is NOW.

The Iranians believe that their attainment and control of nuclear weapons and the ability to deliver them to anywhere in the world could give them a decisive edge in the attainment of their objective. It is the same objective sought by an ancient warlord known as Tamerlane. Tamerlane, or Timur as historians call him, mercilessly slaughtered vast numbers of people, sometimes the populations of entire cities and regions. Historians estimate that he killed as much as 5% of the earth's known population of the time. He left behind an unbelievable wasteland over the areas he conquered. His armies plowed salt into the earth so it could not grow crops; he destroyed canals and infrastructure so that the remaining population could never recover economically. He paid exceptional attention to murdering the most knowledgeable of the population so that the remaining people of an area would forever live on the edge of survival. He left thousands of human skulls piled up to remind people not to resist his will. He, murdered thousands, destroyed libraries and obliterated ancient artifacts. The terrorist atrocities of today are reminders that many inhuman tactics of the past are being deployed again!

Today, the civilized world is faced with widespread atrocities inflicted on large populations similar to those inflicted by the ancient Muslim warlord, Timur. Simply because several centuries have passed since the time of Timur, the Obama Administration seems to believe that the radicals who control Iran will behave differently? Would they use nuclear weapons, in the place of ancient hordes, to completely eradicate or make uninhabitable large areas of the world where they disagree with the beliefs of inhabitants? According to Benjamin Netanyahu the Iranians are battling ISIS for the sole reason of seeing who gets to lead in the domination of the world! He should know!

The West is "playing around" and apparently doesn't recognize what is happening. In the case of Obama, he misleadingly, and perhaps deliberately, represents ISIS as the "JV team." ISIS has demonstrated an eagerness to engage in atrocities similar to what historians have ascribed to Timur. The regime in Iran has vowed time and again to erase Israel from the face of the earth. The Israeli's are fearful of the Mullahs in Iran because they are acutely aware of the history of their region and of the past behavior and decision making of its more radical leaders, past and present.

There is no question that it is difficult to declare war on any culture that is willing, perhaps eager, to sacrifice lives in the name of a false ideology. However, we have no choice. In the name of humanity and civilization's survival, we must do so. Please read the material contained at the following links for a historical insight into the problems we face today in this regard.
