Our Strength is Our Weakness

 Our Strength is Our Weakness



We are continually told that diversity is our strength. And to a certain degree, diversity is a strength of the United States. We are an open society. We are welcoming of people of all races, of all religions, of all political ideologies, and that is a true strength of ours. But more and more, diversity is becoming our weakness. Diversity is only a strength when everybody in the country loves the country, and believes in the core principles and values of the country. But diversity becomes not only a weakness but an existential threat when too many people and too many groups living in the country, hate and want to destroy the foundation of the country. And that is what we are witnessing right now in America.

Our enemies are exploiting our push for diversity to infiltrate and destroy us. There are factions in America who were allowed to immigrate here under the cloak of diversity who actually hate America. There are millions of radical Muslims living in America who hate America and want to turn America into the Middle East. In Dearborn, Michigan last week, a crowd of thousands of Muslims in the public square were chanting, “death to Israel. Death to America.” Protesters at Columbia University proudly declared “We’re all Hamas” and “Long live Hamas”. This week, pro-Palestinian protesters blocked traffic in major cities – San Francisco, Seattle, Chicago and Miami – the day after Iran attacked Israel. On Monday, hundreds of anti-Israeli protesters, burning American flags and chanting “death to America”, stormed the Brooklyn Bridge. And Google employees occupied the CEO’s office for more than 8 hours demanding that the company sever ties with Israel.

For all the people who accuse those of us, who were extremely wary of allowing so many people from Muslim countries into America, it had nothing to do with being against people who followed a different religion from Christianity or Judaism; our wariness was specifically against people who happened to be of Islamic faith who do not believe in the core values of the United States of America. Their goal is to have a worldwide caliphate, which would require the elimination of all the non-Muslims in America and turn the United States into an Islamic state. That’s it. They have no interest in multiculturalism or different religions living in peace side-by-side. That is not the way they exist. That is not their vision for the world. Their vision is for the entire planet to be Islamic and if you refuse to convert, you will be murdered. So, we need to stop the rhetoric that Islam is a “religion of peace”. It is not. There is nothing in Islamic history, in its present iterations or in its ideology which suggests it’s a “religion of peace”. Its main goal is to eliminate anyone who is not a Muslim whether through forced conversion or death.

The problem is that we have allowed so many people who think like this into our country, that our politicians feel a need to placate the anti-American, anti-Israel voting bloc in order to win elections. The Biden Administration greenlit Iran’s attack on Israel last week, and then Joe Biden immediately told Israel Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu that Israel should not retaliate. The attack was an indiscriminate bombing of 300 drone missiles into the heart of Israel. If those bombs had not been intercepted, thousands of innocent Israeli civilians would have been killed. So, after all of these months of the Biden Administration lecturing Israel about restraint against Hamas because they were concerned about civilian deaths, the Biden administration signed off on an attack which if it had been successful would have killed thousands of Israeli civilians. In October, President Biden did not renew the expiring sanctions on Iran's drone and missile production at the United Nations in October, essentially handing Iran the weapons it fired at Israel last week.

We have politicians in America who refused to condemn Iran’s attack on Israeli civilians. 14 members of the House of Representatives, Jamaal Bowman (D-NY), Cori Bush (D-MO), Greg Casar (D-TX), Jonathan Jackson (D-IL), Pramila Jayapal (D-WA), Hank Johnson (D-GA), Barbara Lee (D-CA), Summer Lee (D-PA), Rashida Tlaib (D-MI), Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY), Ilhan Omar (D-MN), Ayanna Pressley (D-MA), Delia Ramirez (D-IL), and Thomas Massie (R-KY), voted against a resolution condemning Iran’s attack. The overwhelming response by the international community was for Israel not to hit back, not to escalate, essentially, they told Israel to sit back and act as Iran’s punching bag – ‘thank you sir, may I have another?’ On Wednesday, Nancy Pelosi stated that she has "always questioned" whether Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin was “capable of peace”.  But Pelosi did not condemn Iran for attacking Israel.

On Monday, to add insult to injury, White House National Security Communications Adviser John Kirby claimed that the attack on Israel was “an extraordinary success” for Israel because Iran did not kill anyone in the attack. So, we win as long as they do not kill us. That’s the game Israel is expected to play now? Be a perpetual prey to terrorist states? Simply get used to being attacked by Hamas and Iran. Why was Israel told to act with restraint against Iran when they were attacked, but Ukraine was never told to act with restraint in dealing with Russia? Russia is a nuclear state that could escalate into a nuclear conflict, but Israel is the one that must act with restraint?

Israel fights back against Hamas who are committing war crimes by using civilians as human shields, and Israel goes to great lengths to avoid civilian casualties, even at their own peril, yet they are the ones accused of committing genocide. If Israel had no concern for the lives of the Palestinian civilians, then Hamas would have been destroyed months ago. The only reason why Hamas still exists is because Israel is trying to avoid civilian casualties as much as possible. If the roles were reversed, every Jew in Israel would have been killed by Hamas by now.

None of it makes sense because we have a house plant as our President, and a closet Muslim, who is actually running our country. That’s it. Only an outright Muslim would think that the position of the United States should be to warn Israel not to strike back at an Islamic terrorist nation that just attacked them. We all know that Joe Biden is not the acting President. We all know that Biden is a puppet. We all know that Barack Obama and his acolytes are working behind the scenes making the decisions. And we all know Obama is an Islamic terrorist sympathizer. He allowed the veil to slip with the first Iranian nuclear deal when he shipped pallets of billions of dollars of cash to the mullahs in Iran. How many of those dollars were used to kill all those civilians on October 7? How many were used to launch those rockets at Israel last week? It is interesting, Obama, as an ex-President, has never been shy about voicing his opinions on many of the issues facing America and the world, yet you never hear him condemn Islamic terrorist attacks. He didn’t condemn Hamas for October 7, he just warned Israel about going after Hamas.

None of this is going to end peacefully. Our last Civil War ended 160 years ago. There has been division and descension in the intervening years, but nothing in the terms of a war. We are bringing people to this country who all they know is civil war and strife with anyone who thinks differently than they. Political and religious tolerance is a concept that doesn’t exist in the minds of the people we are importing here from the Middle East, and they’ve shown an inability to grasp and embrace that concept.  We tried to impose United States and western ideas of peace and democracy and liberalism onto two countries in the Middle East – Iraq and Afghanistan – and they were rejected by the people there. They don’t want it. They don’t understand it.

We continue to grow the populations of people into this country who not only hate America but want to destroy America and have no aversion to civil war and strife. We are on a path that will only end in an out and out civil war. 50 years from now, when the Islamic population in this country has been allowed to grow exponentially, there will be civil wars in America like we witness every day across the Middle East, and when our children or grandchildren fight back after being attacked by Muslim terrorists, they will be labeled and prosecuted as the terrorists and the terrorists will be the victims.

We have imported all the problems of the Middle East into America, and eventually, that cancer will metastasize. They will eventually impose their hatred and war onto America in a way that we were never able to impose peace and democracy onto the Middle East. In the end, the only way there can be peace in Islam is if there is absolutely no diversity, if everyone thinks and believes exactly the same. That is why there is never going to be peace in the Middle East and their eternal civil wars will become as common in America as they are over there.
