How To Destroy A Nation! Governor Six Pence!

A response from a long time friend and more recent fellow memo reader.

It was in response to my previous memo: "Dear Dick,

I have ever felt that one can have it both ways so, if Islam is a peace loving religion, why isn't the Muslim community active in helping us ferret out Islamic terrorists?  And even more incongruous, why will its leaders not ,at the very least, vocally condemn violence and terrorism?  Thus, I emphatically applaud what I think is the single best line of your most recent email. . . "Muslims, where are you?

Unfortunately, I think we all know the answer as given by deafening silence."

With best regards,

S------

My response to my friend was a somber one because I truly believe we live in sad and dangerous times made more so by a president who cannot bring himself to name the war we must fight to save our freedoms.

I find Obama's persistent, and I have come to believe purposeful, failings ominous.

And this is how the camel's nose gets under the tent! (See 1 below.)

Next will be the adoption of Sharia law . 

The way to destroy any nation is basically simple and involves time, persistence and a few basic steps (See 1a and 1b below.)

1)  Syracuse Appoints Nation of Islam Member to School Board

Critics are calling into question Syracuse mayor Stephanie Miner's decision to appoint Mark Muhammed, a member of the Nation of Islam, to the school board

.

1a)They are as follows:

1) De-educate the population.  The more ignorant the population of its history the more susceptible they are to radical change, to believing everything they hear. Leaders can even lie with impunity!

2)  Once a population has been de-educated then sell them on their right to  entitlements, making the case for their feeling aggrieved and being taken advantage of so you can lay the foundation  for class war fare and the appeal of populism.

Stirring up the population sells newspapers and brings in media revenue who are a necessary participant in bringing down a society.

3) While  undertaking the above, allow the population to speak any language they choose because this further weakens a society, causing conflict and diminishing the ability to converse..

4) Any nation that cannot protect its borders will ultimately be doomed so  thin out the indigenous population and accept the un-enforcement of  law.

5) Once a populous begins to accept lawlessness the underpinnings of that society are further destroyed.

6)  Cheapen the nation's currency, indebt it and destabilize its economy.

7) Finally, demilitarize a nation so it no longer can defend its citizens.  You do this by depleting its military and domestically you attack its police force as unjust.  Citizens then begin taking matters and their own defense into their own hands leading to further violence and  breakdown of that society, its respect for law and those who previously enforced its laws.

This can take decades but the momentum builds with each phase.

Sound familiar?  You decide!

1b) Americans are unaware of the fact that over two hundred years ago, the United States had declared war on Islam, and Thomas Jefferson led the charge!

At the height of the eighteenth century, Muslim pirates were the terror of the Mediterranean and a large area of the North Atlantic. They attacked every ship in sight, and held the crews for exorbitant ransoms.

Those taken hostage were subjected to barbaric treatment and wrote heart breaking letters home, begging their government and family members to pay whatever their Mohammedan captors demanded.

These extortionists of the high seas represented the Islamic nations of Tripoli, Tunis, Morocco, and Algiers – collectively referred to as the Barbary Coast – and presented a dangerous and unprovoked threat to the new American Republic.

Before the Revolutionary War, U.S. merchant ships had been under the protection of Great Britain. When the U.S. declared its independence and entered into war, the ships of the United States were protected by France. However, once the war was won, America had to protect its own fleets. Thus, the birth of the U.S. Navy.

Beginning in 1784, seventeen years before he would become president, Thomas Jefferson became America’s Minister to France.

That same year, the U.S. Congress sought to appease its Muslim adversaries by following in the footsteps of European nations who paid bribes to the Barbary States, rather than engaging them in war.

In July of 1785, Algerian pirates captured American ships, and the Day of Algiers demanded an unheard-of ransom of $60,000. It was a plain and simple case of extortion, and Thomas Jefferson was vehemently opposed to any further payments. Instead, he proposed to Congress the formation of a coalition of allied nations who together could force the Islamic states into peace. A disinterested Congress decided to pay the ransom.

In 1786, Thomas Jefferson and John Adams met with Tripoli’s ambassador to Great Britain to ask by what right his nation attacked American ships and enslaved American citizens, and why Muslims held so much hostility towards America, a nation with which they had no previous contacts.

The two future presidents reported that Ambassador Sidi Haji Abdul Rahman Adja had answered that Islam "was founded on the Laws of their Prophet, that it was written in their Quran, that all nations who should not haveacknowledged their authority were sinners, that it was their right and duty to make war upon them wherever they could be found, and to make slaves of all they could take as Prisoners, and that every Musselman(Muslim) who should be slain in Battle was sure to go to Paradise."

Despite this stunning admission of premeditated violence on non-Muslim nations, as well as the objections of many notable American leaders, including George Washington, who warned that caving in was both wrong and would only further embolden the enemy, for the following fifteen years, the American government paid the Muslims millions of dollars for the safe passage of American ships or the return of American hostages.

The payments in ransom and tribute amounted to over twenty percent of the United States government annual revenues in 1800. Jefferson was disgusted. Shortly after his being sworn in as the third President of the United States in 1801, the Pasha of Tripoli sent him a note demanding the immediate payment of $225,000 plus $25,000 a year for every year forthcoming.

That changed everything.

Jefferson let the Pasha know, in no uncertain terms, what he could do with his demand. The Pasha responded by cutting down the flagpole at the American consulate and declared war on the United States. Tunis, Morocco, and Algiers immediately followed suit.

Jefferson, until now, had been against America raising a naval force for anything beyond coastal defense, but having watched his nation be cowed by Islamic thuggery for long enough, decided that it was finally time to meet force with force.

He dispatched a squadron of frigates to the Mediterranean and taught the Muslim of the Barbary Coast a lesson he hoped they would never forget.

Congress authorized Jefferson to empower U.S. ships to seize all vessels and goods of the Pasha of Tripoli and to “cause to be done all other acts of precaution or hostility as the state of war would justify”.

When Algiers and Tunis, who were both accustomed to American cowardice and acquiescence, saw the newly independent United States had both the will and the might to strike back, they quickly abandoned their allegiance to Tripoli.

The war with Tripoli lasted for four more years, and raged up again in 1815. The bravery of the U.S. Marine Corps in these wars led to the line “to the shores of Tripoli” in the Marine Hymn. They would forever be known as “leathernecks” for the leather collars of their uniforms, designed to prevent their heads from being cut off by the Muslim scimitars when boarding enemy ships.

Islam, and what its Barbary followers justified doing in the name of their prophet and their god, disturbed Jefferson quite deeply. America had a tradition of religious tolerance, the fact that Jefferson, himself, had co-authored the Virginia Statute for Religious Freedom, but fundamentalist Islam was like no other religion the world had ever seen.

A religion based on supremacist, whose holy book not only condoned but mandated violence against unbelievers was unacceptable to him. His greatest fear was that someday this brand of Islam would return and pose an even greater threat to the United States.

This should bother every American. That the Islam's have brought about women-only classes and swimming times at taxpayer-funded universities and public pools; that Christians, Jews, and Hindus have been banned from serving on juries where Muslim defendants are being judged, Piggy banks and Porky Pig tissue dispensers have been banned from workplaces because they offend Islamist sensibilities.

Ice cream has been discontinued at certain Burger King locations because the picture on the wrapper looks similar to the Arabic script for Allah, public schools are pulling pork from their menus, on and on in the news papers….

It’s death by a thousand cuts, or inch-by-inch as some refer to it, and most Americans have no idea that this battle is being waged every day across America. By not fighting back, by allowing groups to obfuscate what is really happening, and not insisting that the Islamists adapt to our own culture, the United States is cutting its own throat with politically correct knife, and helping to further the Islamists agenda. Sadly, it appears that today’s America would rather be politically correct than victorious.

Any doubts, just Google Thomas Jefferson vs. the Muslim World or click this link: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/First_Barbary_War

Those who don't know HISTORY are destined to REPEAT it ! ! !

2) A Conservative Contender

While Bush and Romney get headlines, a midwestern governor builds a case for 2016.

By James Freeman

Media coverage of Republican presidential contenders has lately been dominated by Mitt Romney and Jeb Bush, former governors who have not won elective office in more than a decade. Meanwhile, a current GOP governor has been scoring impressive victories on behalf of limited government and economic growth.

Indiana’s Mike Pence may be the most taxpayer-friendly governor in the country. Elected in 2012, Mr. Pence has already killed the state’s death tax and enacted a plan that will slash the corporate income tax rate to 4.9% from 6.5%. He’s also secured a reduction in business property taxes and a modest cut in Indiana’s personal income tax rate to 3.23% from 3.4%.

And he’s done it while maintaining a state budget surplus, a tradition he intends to continue. In this week’s State of the State address in Indianapolis, Gov. Pence called for a balanced-budget amendment to the Indiana constitution. Balancing government budgets is an issue that has fallen off the media radar since the 2011 fight over the federal debt limit, but remains highly popular among grass-roots conservatives, i.e. Republican primary voters.

The Hoosier chief executive has also been aggressively cutting state regulations as he seeks to lure companies from less business-friendly jurisdictions. A favorite marketing slogan: “New York, New York: If you can make it there, you can make a lot more of it here.”

Indiana has been among the leaders in private-sector job growth since the recession ended in 2009. And during a recent visit to the Journal, Mr. Pence was quick to credit his predecessor Mitch Daniels for laying “the foundation” for the state’s success. It’s also true that Mike Pence isn’t the only midwestern governor pursuing a growth agenda.

But Mr. Pence is the only 2016 contender to earn a flat A on the libertarian Cato Institute’s most recent Fiscal Policy Report Card on America’s Governors, which means he’s been able to restrain spending, not just taxes. The Pence resume also includes election to six terms in the U.S. House, where he rose to a leadership position as Chairman of the Republican Conference.

If Gov. Pence decides to run, he will have a compelling story to tell. He’s one more reason why the Republican field in 2016 could be the party’s strongest in decades.
