Quotes

"A fascinating story in The Arizona Republic illustrates the growing gulf between assimilated Hispanics and unassimilated newcomers in a central Phoenix neighborhood. A community action officer with the Phoenix police says: '[Longtime Hispanic residents] feel like the neighborhood is being overrun by immigrants... A lot of them are not happy with the way their neighborhood has changed.' Meanwhile, the immigrants complain that assimilated Hispanics 'have betrayed their country by speaking English and not celebrating the Mexican holidays.' Said one: 'Our Mexican-Americans are even racist against our own people.' Doesn't that just about say it all?" —Congressman J. D. Hayworth

Portrait Of George Washington Praying Removed From School - March 2, 2006 – A federal judge has ruled against William Lee, a public school teacher who sued his school after officials removed Christian-themed posters a bulletin board in his classroom. The postings included a depiction of George Washington on his knees praying at Valley Forge, and news articles about the faith of George Bush and former Attorney General John Ashcroft. School officials also removed a flier promoting the National Day of Prayer.

According to the Federal Trade Commission, 400,000 children have their IDs stolen each year. http://www.cbsnews.com. Children are perfect targets because they have clean credit histories and thieves can get away with the crime for years, since kids and their parents rarely check the kids' credit reports. http://www.cbsnews.com


The War on Terror

The Dhimmi: An Overview

Dhimmi Watch - Dhimmitude is the status that Islamic law, the Sharia, mandates for non-Muslims, primarily Jews and Christians. Dhimmis, "protected people," are free to practice their religion in a Sharia regime, but are made subject to a number of humiliating regulations designed to enforce the Qur'an's command that they "feel themselves subdued" (Sura 9:29). This denial of equality of rights and dignity remains part of the Sharia, and, as such, are part of the law that global jihadists are laboring to impose everywhere, ultimately on the entire human race. The dhimmi attitude of chastened subservience has entered into Western academic study of Islam, and from there into journalism, textbooks, and the popular discourse. One must not point out the depredations of jihad and dhimmitude; to do so would offend the multiculturalist ethos that prevails everywhere today. But in this era of global terrorism this silence and distortion has become deadly. Therefore Dhimmi Watch seeks to bring public attention to the plight of the dhimmis, and by doing so, to bring them justice.

Because They Hate By Brigitte Gabriel FrontPageMagazine.com | February 20, 2006

[FrontPageMagazine.com Editor's Note: Below are selected excerpts from Brigitte Gabriel's speech delivered at the Intelligence Summit in Washington DC, Saturday February 18, 2006].

[EarsToHear.net Editor's Note: Below are selected excerpts from FrontPageMagazine.com]

The West has been wallowing in a state of ignorance and denial for thirty years as Muslim extremist perpetrated evil against innocent victims in the name of Allah. I was ten years old when my home exploded around me, burying me under the rubble and leaving me to drink my blood to survive, as the perpetrators shouted “Allah Akbar!” My only crime was that I was a Christian living in a Christian town. At 10 years old, I learned the meaning of the word "infidel."

...At the age of 13 I dressed in my burial clothes going to bed at night, waiting to be slaughtered. By the age of 20, I had buried most of my friends--killed by Muslims. We were not Americans living in New York, or Britons in London. We were Arab Christians living in Lebanon. As a victim of Islamic terror, I was amazed when I saw Americans waking up on September 12, 2001, and asking themselves "Why do they hate us?"

...Tolerating evil is a crime. Appeasing murderers doesn't buy protection. It earns one disrespect and loathing in the enemy's eyes. Yet apathy is the weapon by which the West is committing suicide. Political correctness forms the shackles around our ankles, by which Islamists are leading us to our demise. America and the West are doomed to failure in this war unless they stand up and identify the real enemy: Islam. You hear about Wahabbi and Salafi Islam as the only extreme form of Islam. All the other Muslims, supposedly, are wonderful moderates. Closer to the truth are the pictures of the irrational eruption of violence in reaction to the cartoons of Mohammed printed by a Danish newspaper.

...America and the West can no longer afford to lay in their lazy state of overweight ignorance.

...The United States has been a prime target for radical Islamic hatred and terror. Every Friday, mosques in the Middle East ring with shrill prayers and monotonous chants calling death, destruction and damnation down on America and its people.

...Even the Nazis did not turn their own children into human bombs, and then rejoice at their deaths as well the deaths of their victims. This intentional, indiscriminate and wholesale murder of innocent American citizens is justified and glorified in the name of Islam. ...

...America cannot effectively defend itself in this war unless and until the American people understand the nature of the enemy that we face. Even after 9/11 there are those who say that we must “engage” our terrorist enemies, that we must “address their grievances”. Their grievance is our freedom of religion. Their grievance is our freedom of speech. Their grievance is our democratic process where the rule of law comes from the voices of many not that of just one prophet. It is the respect we instill in our children towards all religions. It is the equality we grant each other as human beings sharing a planet and striving to make the world a better place for all humanity. Their grievance is the kindness and respect a man shows a woman, the justice we practice as equals under the law, and the mercy we grant our enemy. Their grievance cannot be answered by an apology for who or what we are.

...If we don't wake up and challenge our Muslim community to take action against the terrorists within it, if we don't believe in ourselves as Americans and in the standards we should hold every patriotic American to, we are going to pay a price for our delusion. For the sake of our children and our country, we must wake up and take action. In the face of a torrent of hateful invective and terrorist murder, America’s learning curve since the Iran hostage crisis is so shallow that it is almost flat. The longer we lay supine, the more difficult it will be to stand erect.

Distinguishing between Patriots and cowards Choices

"Those who expect to reap the blessings of freedom must, like men, undergo the fatigue of supporting it." Thomas Paine

Therefore, to those who would forgo the fatigue of supporting the blessings of freedom:

"Contemplate the mangled bodies of your countrymen, and then say, 'What should be the reward of such sacrifices?' ... If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquility of servitude than the animating contest of freedom...crouch down and lick the hands, which feed you. May your chains sit lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that ye were our countrymen!" Samuel Adams

"We have therefore to resolve to conquer or die: Our won Country's Honor, all call upon us for vigorous and manly exertion, and if we now shamefully fail, we shall become infamous to the whole world. Let us therefore rely upon the goodness of the Cause, and the aid of the supreme Being, in whose hands Victory is, to animate and encourage us to great and noble Actions. " George Washington (General Orders, 2 July 1776)  Reference: George Washington: A Collection, W.B. Allen, ed. (71)

The Bible and Its Influence was reviewed by 41 scholars representing a broad range of Biblically- based faith traditions. The Associated Press cites The Bible and Its Influence as one of the top "notable books on religion in 2005 . . . for its distinctiveness and potential importance." The Bible Literacy Project course uses two books - the Bible (a version of the student’s choice) and the student textbook, The Bible and Its Influence. Students cannot understand the Bible without reading it directly for themselves. Two great advantages of our student textbook are 1) it helps a teacher stick to what the Bible actually says and avoid either promoting or disparaging any faith or lack of faith; and 2) it educates students on the vast influence of the Bible on American and Western art, literature, law, history, culture and music. Teachers who have used the textbook have been most appreciative of the guidance, which models respect for the Bible’s status as sacred scripture to millions of Americans while using a high-quality academic approach, explained Weber. “We want to make sure people know there is a teachers’ edition of the textbook in the review process right now, with early review copies available upon request by school boards and the final version due out this spring. In addition, we offer the only university-based training on how to teach about the Bible,” says Weber. "Our teacher training is available online and offers valuable continuing education credits or graduate level credits. It features eminent scholars and textbook reviewers, such as Dr. Leland Ryken of Wheaton College, (IL), Dr. Tremper Longman of Westmont College, Dr. Paul Borgman of Gordon College, and Dr. Robert Alter, professor of Hebrew at University of California-Berkeley, among others.” The next class starts May 22nd. Since the textbook's release last September, educators representing nearly 500 schools in all 50 states are reviewing The Bible and Its Influence for potential use next fall. High schools in 10 states have already adopted the textbook for use in September 2006. "But this is a well-tested curriculum," explains Weber. "Beginning with a pilot program that began in 2004, the course is currently being used in Oregon, California, Washington, and Texas schools."

Something for nothing by Thomas Sowell 02/28 - Suppose someone left you an inheritance of a million dollars -- with the proviso that every cent of it had to be spent on tickets for you to go watch professional wrestling matches. If you happened to be a professional wrestling fan, you would be in hog heaven. ...Many of us who receive money from Social Security or other government programs are learning the hard way the difference between money with strings and money without strings. For example, Social Security recipients have to be enrolled in Medicare, whether they want to be or not. "Universal" coverage means compulsory coverage, just with prettier political spin. ...But so long as you think you are getting something for nothing, the politicians' shell game has worked and the welfare state can continue to expand.

Why I wrote the book by Bruce Bartlett 02/28 - A lot of my friends are not happy with me for writing it and I have been embraced by a number of people on the left whom I would ordinarily consider my political enemies. Both are mistaken about why I wrote the book and what I hope to accomplish with it. ...My basic argument is that Mr. Bush has enacted policies contrary to conservative principles on too many occasions. Some of those that disturb me the most are these: ...No Child Left Behind Act...Campaign Finance Reform......Note: Impostor: How George W. Bush Bankrupted America and Betrayed the Reagan Legacy is now on sale at the Townhall Book Service for 23% off the cover price.

If you haven’t done so, please sign the Alliance For Marriage (AFM) online Defense of Marriage Petition by clicking here.  Already delivered over 600,000 individual petitions to Congress and new petitions continue to put tremendous pressure on Capitol Hill to pass AFM’s Marriage Protection Amendment! By the time of the June Senate vote, 500,000 new supporters are needed to be added to our Defender of Marriage Petition.

Question: What is AFM’s Marriage Protection Amendment?

Answer: Here is AFM’s Marriage Protection Amendment. The language of the amendment is as simple as it is powerful:

“ Marriage in the United States shall consist only of the union of a man and a woman. Neither this Constitution, nor the constitution of any State, shall be construed to require that marriage or the legal incidents thereof be conferred upon any union other than the union of a man and a woman.”

Europe's marriage crisis by Maggie Gallagher 02/28 - A funny thing happened on the way to the overpopulation crisis. ...It takes 2.1 children per woman to replace the population. In 2000, only six major western European nations had total fertility rates as high as 1.7 (France, Ireland, Norway, Denmark, Finland, the Netherlands); four nations had on average at least 1.5 but less than 1.7 children per woman (Belgium, United Kingdom, Portugal, Sweden); four more have slipped into the crisis level demographers define as "very low fertility" of less than 1.5 -- Austria (1.3), the former West Germany (1.4), Italy (1.2) and Spain (1.2). By contrast, between 1980 and 2000, the United States' fertility climbed from 1.85 back up to 2.06.
