Those That Cannot Remember The Past Are Condemned To Repeat It (When Will We Ever Learn)

On the afternoon of February 26, 1993, Islamic terrorist Ramzi Yousef parked a Ryder truck in the basement of the North Tower of the World Trade Center and detonated an explosive that killed six people and injured over one thousand more. Ramzi Yousef was not Christian or Jewish. He was not a Buddhist, a Mormon or a Baptist. He was a Muslim. Upon his illegal entry into the United States, Yousef took up residence in New Jersey.

On September 11, 2001, nineteen Islamic terrorists boarded four airplanes and carried out the worst terrorist attack to ever occur on American soil.  The nineteen terrorists were not Christians.  They were not Jewish. They were not Buddhists, Mormons or Baptists. They were Muslims.  Tickets for at least one of the hijacked flights were purchased in New Jersey.  Flight 93 took off from Newark International Airport. Of the almost three thousand people that were killed on September 11, 2001, six hundred and ninety four were residents of New Jersey.

In June 2010, two New Jersey residents were arrested at JFK International Airport as they were about to board flights to Egypt. The two had intentions of joining up with Islamic terrorists to wage war with The United States. It has been reported that they were discovered and exposed by an undercover NYPD officer.

The FBI and Law Enforcement were highly criticized in the days following September 11, 2001. More could’ve been done.  More should’ve been done to protect every citizen of this country. Why ten years after these attacks we feel the need to have to apologize to anyone for due diligence is beyond any comprehension. Shame on Eric Holder. Shame on New Jersey Governor Christie.

The FBI, The NYPD and all other Federal, State and local law enforcement is tasked with protecting everyone, regardless of religion or race. Lest we forget that several dozen innocent Muslims were also killed on September 11, 2001?

Without  getting into why this topic should not even be discussed in public, the only thing Eric Holder and Gov. Christie should be saying is that, “Yes we are currently involved in undercover surveillance and intelligence gathering within the Muslim community.  We will continue with these operations until such a time that there is no longer a threat from within that community.  You are either with us or against us.  There is no middle ground here.”

The citizens of the state of New Jersey and the country should be calling for the resignations of both Holder and Christie.  Their comments have proven that their concern is not that of ALL Americans but rather that of a vocal minority.  We can not and should not kowtow to any one group, thereby putting everyone in harms way.

This is not a question of wrongfully arresting anyone or violating one’s civil rights.  It is not a call to discriminate or harm anyone from any specific group.  It is a case of being ever vigilant in the war on terrorism.  We were attacked by Islamic extremists who were Muslim.  Common sense should dictate that that is where the attention should be focused.

The FBI has said that the “secret spying” has damaged Muslims’ trust.  A pretty good argument could be made that September 11 damaged America’s trust.

As George Bush said, “Either you are with us, or you are with the terrorists.” There is no middle ground.

Could you imagine a group of Italians up in arms at the FBI or NYPD or any other law enforcement agency for having undercover officers infiltrate the Mafia?

Wake up America……………………………..It’s time to demand more from our elected officials.

God Bless the United States of America.

If it looks like a duck and walks like a duck, well than it must be a………….

Female college student speaks before a “mock” congressional hearing.

Female college student proclaims that she and other students cannot afford contraception for the amount of sex they are having.

Female college student is then labeled that as which she defines herself. (Go ahead, look up that word in the dictionary.)

Female college student receives phone call from the president, who expresses his support and believes her parents should be proud of her.

Proud of her for what?

For publicly claiming that she has more sex then she can afford? Proud of her promiscuous ways? Proud of her extracurricular activities spent on her back?

When I was in school there was a word for that type of girl, but that is after-all, what got us to this point.

Iran is on the verge of developing a nuclear program.  The United States may be heading towards another Cold War with Russia.  US Soldiers are being killed in Afghanistan. Oil and gas prices are spiraling out of control.  The economy. The national debt. Unemployment. The unending threat of terrorism.  All real issues that should be of great concern to every American and our leaders.

And what is this president concerned with? A college student who is whining about not being able to afford contraceptives. A college student who believes she is ENTITLED to free contraceptives so that she can have sex while supposedly earning a degree in law school.

Really?

Sandra Fluke’s parents should be anything but proud.  They should be embarrassed and ashamed.

Every American should be embarrassed and ashamed of this administration.
