Paris and denial

An open letter to President Hollande, President Obama, Chancellor Merkel, Prime Minister David Cameron and other Western Leaders

Yesterday, I posted here on the threat posed by the fifth column within Western societies.  I had no idea that the (incomplete) list of atrocities, committed extremist Muslims would have new attacks to be added, so soon.

Firstly, let’s get Jihadi John out of the way.  These attacks in Paris required planning, coordination and materiel.  It beggars belief that these attacks were in any way a reaction to the killing of the Daesh executioner, Jihadi John.  No way!

Staying with Jihadi John, for a moment, it is shaming that the UK Labour leader, Jeremy Corbyn bemoaned that it is a pity that Jihadi John wasn’t brought before a court of law  rather than just being eliminated.  It is this kind of seriously muddled and plain wrong, thinking, that has brought us to where we are.  Didn’t expect too much from Corbyn, who has ‘form’ in standing-up for terrorists but feel ashamed and embarrassed for all those decent Labour party supporters, who he claims to represent.

President Hollande, of France, has reacted by closing the border and declaring a state of emergency. Monsieur Le President!  Too late.  The enemy is within!  For years you and your Socialist party and the Communists and other liberals have invited more and more potential terrorists into your country. You have allowed ‘no go’ areas to develop.  You have allowed abominations like the ‘jungle’ camp at Calais, full of lawless illegal immigrants, to flourish.  You have failed to act, time and time again, when Islamic terrorists have committed attacks.

In reaction to this latest attack, President Hollande has stated that the reaction will be pitiless.  Why wasn’t it so after the Charlie Hebdo attacks, in January, or any of the other attacks?

I will answer for you.  Indeed, for all of the Western leaders.

Simply put, it is because Hollande, Obama, Merkel, Cameron and all of the others are in denial.  You think that ignoring the issue of the Muslim fifth column, will somehow make it go away. That appeasing Muslim groups, who label themselves as ‘moderate’ will somehow lead to those groups delivering-up the ‘radicals’ in their midst. That by continually bowing down to the Wahabi fanatics of Saudi Arabia and the Ayatollahs in Tehran and Qom, they will become reasonable.  That ignoring the atrocities that are daily carried out, in the name of Islam – the stoning of women, the hanging of homosexuals and the persecution of Christians, for example – shouldn’t stop us considering these people as the same as us.  That being kind and considerate and opening up your countries to an alien invasion, is somehow the right thing to do.

You political leaders have facilitated these atrocities.  Aided and abetted by your fellow-travellers in the media.

Europe, the USA and Canada are societies/civilisations that have been founded and developed on Judeo-Christian principles.  The tolerance found in the West is completely absent in fundamentalist Islam.  Not just overlooked or ignored but completely absent.  Tolerance in the West has been declining in recent years.  The cult of Political Correctness feeds an unhealthy intolerance and paradoxically, supports the most un-PC of groups – hard-line Muslims.  As a white, hetrosexual male, if I pass a derogatory comment or just any kind of comment about a homosexual, the PC brigade will attack me as being bigoted.  If the homosexual is black, I will also get the racist card, thrown at me.  If the homosexual is a lesbian, you can add in a sexist charge.  And yet, Daesh have been throwing homosexuals off of buildings (and filming the events) since last year,  Iran hangs homosexuals from crane jibs and Afghanistan and Pakistan stone to death, women who are accused of adultery and the PC crowd is silent.  Why?  Well mustn’t offend the Muslims.

In a badly-timed TV interview, President Obama told Americans, yesterday, that ISIS was contained. Well the Paris killers schooled Obama on that!  The only way you can say they are ‘contained’ is when they are contained within a box or in an ash pile.

We shouldn’t be surprised at Obama’s latest failings.  This is the man who claims that so called Climate Change is the biggest threat to America’s national security.  The same man who wants to bring in 100,000 Syrian ‘refugees’ and of course, there will be no radical Muslims in that lot.

My message to Western leaders, other than Obama is now is the time to abandon the US President.  He seems intent on destroying America and will drag others into his highly warped dystopia.

Second message is, end the immigration crisis now.  Close the borders, deploy naval forces to the Mediterranean Sea and send back all vessels containing refugees, from whence they came. Deploy NATO troops to the southern European borders, build fences and keep the refugees out.  Those ‘refugees’ that have arrived.  Put them in buses and trains and send them back.  If you don’t then prepare for more Paris-type attacks. London, Berlin, Munich, Amsterdam, Vienna, Rome, the list will go on and on. We are at war.

I remind you all of Pastor Niemoller’s words

First they came for the Socialists, and I did not speak out—
Because I was not a Socialist.
Then they came for the Trade Unionists, and I did not speak out—
Because I was not a Trade Unionist.
Then they came for the Jews, and I did not speak out—
Because I was not a Jew.
Then they came for me—and there was no one left to speak for me.

The me could be you as a Christian, you as a homosexual, you as an atheist, you as woman.  Indeed the you could be a Shiite Muslim, if it is the Sunni’s that are in the ascendancy!

Action is needed. Daesh is a death cult that some call a cancer on the Muslim body.  In the world of medicine, cancer is often treated with radiation.  Maybe that is what is called for, in Raqqa for a start. Then the appeasement of Saudi Arabia and Iran and Pakistan needs to be very forcefully addressed.

Fundamentally, the West needs to understand that playing by the rule book, to defeat someone who know no rule book other than the Quran, is a policy that is doomed to failure.  Ask yourself.  Would you really be concerned if Raqqu was carpet-bombed, or worse, if such action stopped more Paris-like attacks?
