The Mindset Of An American Muslim...you figure?

My American World

The inspiration for this post comes from a telling cartoon: The World’s Worst Nightmare,” by Carlos Latuff .

Although we, as Americans, see ourselves as the champions of freedom and democracy; much of the world - the oppressed, impoverished, less fortunate and even those more fortunate than we are (yes, there are people in this world more fortunate than Americans), see us as an opportunistic, ruthless and blood-lusting bully.

As human beings, we have lately progressed into a decline of being civilized. We wear the tin and tarnished badge of pride and arrogance and claim that we surely live the American dream (although many today would argue that we are living a nightmare); not realizing that we do so through the nightmares of others - foreign and domestic.

When asked to take a hard look at ourselves, we make excuses for what we do and are even proud of the blood we shed. We claim to guess at what others think; then destroy them before they have a chance to explain or bring forth the evidence to show how a grave persecution faces their people if Americans fail to believe them. Their pleas go by the way of dripping blood - isolated, sealed and discarded, never to be seen again.

We have built this blood-drenching tradition since the time of creating this country, on the backs of African slaves (many who were Muslim), solely based on their color, as well as the Native Americans - solely based on their color. We no longer use color as the primary reason for annihilation and forced servitude. But let’s not kid ourselves into thinking it’s a tactic we have abandoned when necessary.

We claim to have progressed and now shed even more blood, but not because of color. We’ve reverted back to addressing a more formidable attribute - the label of a select conscience; but not because of conscience, but rather another deadly sin - greed. As horrific as it is, in and of itself, it may actually be an improvement; for we are no longer primarily picking out a mere physical attribute to determine the quality of a human being.

It is, however, still insufficient to kill based on the brand of a belief system, such as Islam; when that very same belief system has practiced throughout history the protection of freedoms that even Americans have taken for granted today. These freedoms are being washed away with the blood-stained rags needed to achieve temporary and unearned riches.

A squeamish and less than frontal or even a flanked attack has already commenced; not only of the desired gratitude of the global community for their own demise, but for the enslavement of especially the innocents of the American citizenry. This has been done while the enemies of humanity hijacked the concept of a people’s government to later make that same citizenry ignorant accomplices to genocide of peoples of conscience. We are talking about hundreds of millions of people who are facing the race to a global war. We minimize it as much as we can by differentiating them by their nationalities, ethnicities, races, political persuasion; but they are amongst the largest of subsets of mankind - they, rather we, are Muslims.

We have marched on, with our star-spangled banner; even against the advice of the majority of sovereign states - a democratic concept rejected by the Champions of Democracy. For the states that have agreed with us, have instantaneously become guilty by association through their greed or by attempts to rise their lowly status by groveling at the chance to somehow be allied with the world’s beacon - the United States. We march on, even against the advice of our religious leaders and legal scholars, who have sought patience and cautioned about the grave moral and legal consequences by moving in haste. We’ve temporarily padded their organizations’ pockets and promised them a degree of increased power in our political marketplace - where the separation of church and state was imposed upon this once-great society because of the potential abuse from those who do believe - how ironic.

Today, as it was back then, it is power that we relish; not realizing that this world is one that that has nations interdependent of each other. We have no problem cutting up whole populations and cutting through cultures and destroying valuable history and infrastructures to satisfy our unjust desires. That sounded too clean. We have torn the limbs, pierced the flesh, murdered women and children, incinerated whole families, mutilated people - dead and alive. We have destroyed them physically; and for those who still live, we work on stripping their fundamental rights, smearing their reputations, controlling their minds and crushing their spirit.

The only difference we see between us and them is that they are not succumbed to our rapidly changing system. We yell and scream in protest and through our far-from-centered talk shows and other media ploys how “those people” dare whisper to seek or even speak about justice; for they never knew true justice. They should accept the fight for freedom as we proud Americans unjustly and physically address their major cities in shock and awe.

Ours is yet to come. We are next in line, with a relatively bloodless coup by our incorporated government against the true government - We the People. As frogs conjugating in the melting pot with an incrementally-increasing simmer, our own gizzards are being cooked. Our tangible and intangible worth is disappearing from our rights, our property, our money, our means for transportation, our health-care, our education, our sanity, our dignity, and next to be focused on: our will, our minds and our souls.

How I fear the wrath not only from the world’s populous; not only from how my own children will be perceived from the outside as Americans, and the inside - as Muslims; nothing like I’ve felt so far for the several injustices and infractions I’ve faced over my adopted Islamic name, nor for the wrongful perception of the extent of evil associated with it; but to think of the punishment that faces mankind, including me, when it’s all over.

If it had been your Lord’s will, they all would have believed - all who are on earth. Will you, then, compel the people, against their will, to believe?” [Qur'an 10:99]

There is definetly an impenetrable wall that devides us...

"...the precious and ever peaceful Islam."
That's not even open for discussion! Islam HATES all who are not...and I see nothing precious about hate.

"Who are we to say that raping 9 year-olds is immoral?" I say!
Rape is rape regardless of age. And it's wrong! Raping a 9 year old IS heinous as well as immoral unless of course the perpetrator has no morals.

"Who are we to say that stoning gays and rape victims to death is evil?"
I say! Stoning, raping, and murder are all wrong except when you're on the dark side of of the wall...it is incomrehensible in my mind as to how anyone in their RIGHT mind can say otherwise!

"Who are we to say that killing hundreds of people every month in the name of Allah is the height of evil? That is just their culture and ideology and it MUST be respected."
I say! Killing hundreds of people in the name of Allah is the epitome of a sick mind. The ideology is nothing less than the work of the devil. It is a culture that breeds in the petri dish of hell!

Nowhere have I read that Allah will forgive you for your odious sins and yet my God will forgive you...all you have to do is come out of that dungeon of a cave you're in and tell Him your sorry.
God as all forgiven, for all of mankind..

"Be gone Satan! Be gone!"
You want to see a miracle?
Repeat that three times and see what happens. I'll pray for you.

Norm, there is soooo much to say, but I really hate talking to trees. Thank you for exposing what type of mentality we are up against. My the God of the Bible have mercy on us!

The sick mentality that believes beheadings, rape, and all the other immoral beliefs of Islam is a demented soul and beneath the level of animals. Even animals don't kill for pleasure.

Islam and it's practitioners should be wiped from the face of the earth without mercy.

Islam is an abomination in eyes of God...the God of Abraham is the ONLY true God. Allah is the creation of the sick mind of Mohammad. Allah was and is nothing more than a pagan idol promoted to deity status by a pedophile, murderer, thief, and liar.

Islam is NOT a religion, neither is it a religion of peace. Islam is and always has been the spawn of Satan.

Ref:"Ours is yet to come. We are next in line, with a relatively bloodless coup..."

By 'relatively' blodless does this mean only a few heads will be chopped off?"

"coup" Would that be a 'Coup de grace', a 'Coup de main' or a 'Coup de tat' ?

"Ours is yet to come..."

Just to let you know..."Ours is yet to come..." America is like a sleeping giant. She was tested before... ask Isoroku Yamamoto what happened after the time he woke us up." Will Mecca be the next Hiroshima?...jusk asking, that's all...hey buddy, I'm still praying for you. God bless!

Hmm, I can only think of an old bawdy ballad we used to sing in the navy when things were dark and the sinister motives of our enemies were afoot:

"Bang bang Lulu, who's been bangin' Lulu when I ain't been around?"

Guard well your house Lulu. We well understand making love in Virginia.

Cheers.

Sweet Jesus, Norm!!! USpace was writing sarcasm!!! The comment was dripping sarcasm like a nosebleed.
Visit his web site and have a good look.
WTH did that piece around the cartoon come from? It smells like a piece of Hell floating in a septic tank.
