For a long time I have been considering the rule of respecting loves ones time of mourning. I believe six months of restrain in making political observations is appropriate.
Right now those who are hurting do not need their pain and suffering complicated by being subjected to political statements questioning motives and actions of victims. People experiencing pain need patience, understanding, and comfort.
This article is not intended to complicate the mourning of those who have lost loves ones in France.
Life matters. We who get up every day to perform the functions of our life want to smile and enjoy ourselves.
For a while I have been coming across media that tries to admonish anyone who promulgates the idea that people of one race are superior to another race. The last two days I have been watching media were the speaker explains that Japan, Hitler, Stalin, Mussolini and other world leaders war ambitions were motivated by evolution making each leader respectively believe their people were superior to people of other nations and racial groups.
A history documentary I viewed awhile back chastised early American leaders for writing that Indians were savages. I pondered whether these early American leaders could be right in their assessment.
I came to the conclusion that people groups can have cultural philosophies that result in the members of that group loosing all their humanity and also result in these members acting like savages. We are wrong in thinking that there are no bad people. We are wrong in thinking we do not have the right to say who is wrong and who is right.
Who appointed me judge of the people world some may ask? Well I have appointed my self as judge of the people of the world. I say that behavior is an indicator of morality. This is why the lying Obama cannot be a good person. We cannot lie and be a good person.
We cannot murder innocent people at a magazine or marathon and claim we are good people. The acts of entering a country with out permission, shooting people in public with out a good reason, our politicizing the acts of these people are poor behaviors. These poor behaviors harm individuals and also harm society.
My definition of a savage is a person who brutally attacks another person. People who can perform these acts are savages and are inferior to the rest of us.
Now do not read in to my words that I have said that Caucasian are superior to African-American people. I am clearly stating that individuals who brutally attack other people are savages and inferior to good, decent, and hard working people.
Now, what are supposed to do with people re harming America by entering illegally and what are supposed to with people who practice terrorism. I am not comfortable in saying because I believe these people to be savages these people should be hunted down. However, let us at leas acknowledge that they are not like us.
It is obvious that terrorist only want to kill and destroy. This makes it some what difficult to completely enjoy life. The idea of being involved in terrorist attack can be terrifying. Surviving a terrorist attack, itself can be traumatic. Everything we build and provide for ourselves can be easily destroyed with a terrorist attack.
Let’s face it leaders around the world have failed their citizens in the fight against terrorist. There has been petty politics that has allowed terrorist to continue their death and destruction.
Some have tried to legitimatize the terrorist movement with the attitude that if we didn’t attack them, they would not attack us. In many regions of the world structures of a safe and secure society are despised while the terrorist movement if revered.
The Koran is believed by Islamic followers to be the inspired word of their god. No one can say I will follow only 80% of my god’s demands. If their god is a real god then that god has severe consequences for disobeying him or her.
Therefore, followers of the Koran out of fear of their god must follow 100% of the teachings of what they believe to be the teachings of their divinely inspired holy book. This is why Islam is not a religion of peace. In the Koran there are complete pages explaining what should be done to an infidel. An infidel is anyone who does not believe what they believe.
Now, even though I was born in Mexico, come from Mexican parents, and have lived in a border town for over forty years I am severely critical of the people of Mexico. The average Mexican is raised to believe all his or her illegal acts are justified. The average Mexican is raised to believe the it correct to commit crimes to acquire the necessities of life.
These ideals are dangerous to American society. The ideas taught in the Koran are dangerous to the world society.
We can either identify the challenge correctly and completely or we can pretend their is no problem. There can be no remedy if we fail to properly identify the challenge. As long as people of nations and leaders of nations fail to understand that Islamist are motivated by pleasing their god by following the words in the Koran there can be no real solution to the terrorist challenge.
Terrorist are successful because they get a lot of support from people who are trying to tell us Islam is a religion of peace. The president of the US through his spokes person has not called what happened in France a terrorist attack. Since 9/11 many American leaders have tried to explain that America is not at war with Islam.
Well Islamist are at war with you. Their holy book tells them to chase you to the ends of the earth and convert you or kill you. To Islamist the words of the Koran were spoken by their god.
This kind of apathy and disrespect for life, goodness, and decency cannot be tolerated. Their goal is for every one to be Islamist. They will convert the ones they can and kill the rest.
Life matters. Because we are human and can feel pain, we are fully aware of the pain of others. The employees of “that” magazine may of done things you and would not do, but they had the right to earn a living and provide for their families. No on should be afraid of their own speech getting them in trouble.
Ironically, even though there has been a long 4000 year conversation people are still learning how to get along with one another. You would think by now we would have all of life’s questions answered and that all of us would be experts at living pleasant and enjoyable lives.
Let’s face it the science of life upsets some people. Living by the principles of personal success means no drugs and/or fornication. Many love the erotic pleasure of the freedom to drug and fornicate.
We who believe in the true principles of personal success will always be at odds with those who enjoy decadent indulgence. We will always be at odds with those who believe we are infidels and they need to kill or convert us.
I do believe France got in trouble with a foolish attempt to placate and pander to extremist. The fight may be hard. However, it is a fight that needs to be fought till the bitter end. We win when there is not one murdering extremist left on planet Earth.
G. W. Bush declared war on terror and people like Hillary Rodam Clinton and Barak Hussein Obama started with their petty politics, questioning every action of the Bush administration. Today, so-called conservatives have become historical revisionist by stating that there was no need for the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq.
In order to have success we have to do “it” well. We cannot become afraid of our own shadow. We cannot loose our resolve.
Extremist threaten every good and decent person. This means we all have to get in the fight.
America and many other nations have had their national business seventy mishandled by their leaders that the monies needed to fight extremist are not available. It is time to have a good look at the enemy, identify the challenge properly, and structure strategies that will lead to the full resolution of the challenge.
For to long we have been irresponsible and negligent while we pretend to be tolerant and respectful. Murderers, rapist,a and thieves, don’t deserve tolerance and respect.
