What does it say about Islam that both the Super Bowl in
America and the winter Olympics in Russia require massive security against an
attack by jihadists? What most people in America and the West have not been
able to grasp is Islam’s hatred of the infidel—the unbeliever. It has existed
for fourteen centuries. On top of that is the schism within Islam between
Sunnis, the majority of Muslims, and Shiites.
Because few among us have actually lived among the
Muslims of the Middle East our understanding of that particular element of
Islam, Arabs and Persians, is gained only by the daily headlines of the way
they kill one another in those nations where the Sunnis and Shiites are locked
in a war to gain or retain power.
While Islam looks and sounds like a religion, it is more
a political and economic entity concerned with controlling those populations
where it is dominant, largely keeping them unable to resist the despots,
monarchs, and clerics in charge. Iran’s Supreme Leader, for example, is worth
billions…….What the West has yet to grasp is its intent on world domination.
That is why jihad—the so-called holy war—is a central pillar of faith…….
The Qur’an is a battle plan for world conquest......

While Syria remains in turmoil, Iraq is afflicted with
bombings, and Egypt addresses terrorism in its cities and the Sinai desert,
Israel is an oasis of peace even though it continues to be rocketed from Gaza,
the base for Hamas, a Palestinian faction that is in conflict with the
Palestinian Authority……Despite the fact that Israel has been a steadfast ally
of the United States and is the only nation in the Mideast that does not pose a
threat to peace it continues to be an obsession with the United Nations that is
devoted to the stateless Palestinians and has declared 2014 the UN Years of
Solidarity with the Palestinian People…….The efforts of the Obama
administration ignore the fact that setting up an independent Palestinian
state, one that would have control of the West Bank, would produce a disaster
for Israel as a flood of refugees from neighboring Arab countries would arrive,
throwing the territories into chaos and posing a huge security threat to
Israel. In addition, Jordan has expressed opposition to such control.
What remains a cancerous conundrum is the hatred directed
at Israel by the United Nations, an international organization allegedly
devoted to world peace. Not far behind it is the European Union and, of course,
the whole of the Mideast region mired in a hatred that goes back 1,400 years
thanks to Islam.......
