Alpine Brewery - To Boldly Brew Where No Brew Has Gone Before

From: Alpine Beer Company  Sent: Tuesday, February 28, 2012  Subject: To Boldly Brew Where No Brew Has Gone Before
To Boldly Brew Where No Brew Has Gone Before
     Since it has been too long since I've disrupted your life and "made" you buy good beer, it's now time to turn up the heat and really get you all shook up.  We have four beers to tell you about and some changes on how we announce our releases.
     On tap, right now, at the pub and brewery for pints, pitchers, and growler fills, are "Bad Boy," "Odin's Raven" and "O'Brien's IPA."  All are fresh and really good, since we brewed them for the upcoming "World Beer Cup."  If you are new to our lineup, here are just the facts, ma'am.  "Bad Boy" is our other double IPA weighing in at 9.25% abv and it uses hops that weren't around when our original double IPA, "Pure Hoppiness," came out.  "Odin's Raven" is an Imperial Chocolate Stout that's 10% abv and chalked full of roasty, chocolatey goodness as we use real Hershey's Chocolate in abundance in this fine brew.  "O'Brien's IPA" is our Gold Medal winning Strong Pale Ale in the World Beer Cup beer that's sure to put a smile on the face of any hophead.  "O'Brien's IPA" is 6.2% abv dryhopped-like-an-IPA pale ale that's balanced with a sweet malt backbone.
     On Wednesday, February 29th, bottles of "Chez Monieux" will go on sale.  Limits on bottles will be enforced to a maximum of 4 bottles per person per day.  If we suspect you are a retailer buying for resale, you will be denied sale, period.  Since I don't get out much, going to Belgium and concentrating of "Belgian Kreik" as a style to perfect was a big deal.  I put my entire brewing prowess to work on making this edition one for the ages.  We used very tart Balaton Cherries to infuse this sour, tart elixir into a beer we're very proud of.  Chez Monieux" is 7% abv and comes in a 750 ml Belgian style bottle for $23.95 plus tax and crv.
     You have seen your very last growler of "Exponential Hoppiness" ever to be dispensed. http://www.ebay.com/csc/i.html?_from=R40&_sacat=0&_nkw=exponential+hoppiness&LH_Complete=1&rt=nc
     Since I previously stated if I ever saw a growler of "Exponential Hoppiness" for sale on ebay there would never be another growler sold again.  Don't blame me, but you can see who to blame on the above link. A s for bottles of "Expo" on ebay, I'm seriously considering never bottling it again.  This is not just a personal issue, it's illegal.  The fact that people drove down from LA to make a quick buck and denying the locals the chance to buy some is also just plain wrong.
     So, you can see the timing of the releases listed above.  The first two beers were released last week, the next comes out today and the last one comes out tomorrow.  That is the most advanced notice you ever receive.  Our little operation is focused on supplying the local market with fine beer.  If you live in the area you can now get first crack at our releases before they can drive in from points unknown.  That's the best I can do for you, my loyal locals.
     Pub Specials every Friday and Saturday night, after 5 pm.  Guest beers include "Le Freak" from Green Flash Brewing and "The Pope" from Hollister Brewing in Goleta.  Pub hours 11am –10pm weekdays and 11 am – 12 pm weekends, 12am – 9 pm Sunday, closed Mondays, all of them.  Brewery hours Tuesday – Saturday 12 am – 6 pm. 619-445-2337 (BEER).  Closed Sunday and Monday.

Fix Congress - Buffet: "I could end deficit in 5 minutes.."

From: joeb Sent: Friday, February 24, 2012 Subject:  Yes you can
Hope you will all keep this going.  I think it is time congress lived like the rest of us. 
Warren Buffett, in a recent interview with CNBC, offers one of the best quotes about the debt ceiling:
        "I could end the deficit in 5 minutes," he told CNBC. "You just pass a  law that says that anytime there is a deficit of more than 3% of  GDP, all sitting members of Congress are ineligible for re-election.
     The 26th amendment (granting the right to vote for 18 year-olds) took only 3 months & 8 days to be ratified!  Why? Simple!  The people demanded it. That was in 1971 - before computers, e-mail, cell phones, etc.
     Of the 27 amendments to the Constitution, seven (7) took one (1) year or less to become the law of the land - all because of public pressure."


Congressional Reform Act of 2012
         1. No Tenure / No Pension.  A Congressman/woman collects a salary while in office and receives no pay when they're out of office.
         2.  Congress (past, present & future) participates in Social Security.  All funds in the Congressional retirement fund move to the Social Security system immediately. All future funds flow into the Social Security system, and Congress participates with the American people. It may not be used for any other purpose.
         3. Congress can purchase their own retirement plan,  just as all Americans do.
        4. Congress will no longer vote themselves a pay raise. Congressional pay will rise by the lower of CPI or 3%.
        5. Congress loses their current health care system and participates in the same health care system as the American people.
        6. Congress must equally abide by all laws they impose on the American people.
       7. All contracts with past and present Congressmen/women are void effective 1/1/12.  The American people did not make this contract with Congressmen/women.  Congress made all these contracts for themselves.  Serving in Congress is an honor, not a career.  The Founding Fathers
envisioned citizen legislators, so ours should serve their term(s), then go home and back to work.
Don't you think it's time?  .. To Fix Congress!

privacy - FBI: New Bank Scam (ACH transactions)

FBI warns of new banking scam
By David McMillin · Bankrate.com, Wednesday, January 11, 2012
     Some crafty criminals are aiming to steal one of the most valuable pieces of your personal property: your banking information.
     In a new warning, the Federal Bureau of Investigation warns account holders of a new spam email scheme that involves a type of malware called "Gameover."  The scheme involves fake emails from the National Automated Clearing House Association, the Federal Reserve or the FDIC.  These messages attempt to trick recipients into clicking on a link to resolve some type of issue with their accounts or a recent ACH transaction.  Once you click on the link, Gameover takes over your computer, and thieves can steal usernames, passwords and your money.
     The FBI also warns the thieves' hacking capabilities can navigate around common user authentication methods banks use to verify your identity, which is certainly a cause for concern.  Those additional authentication steps -- often personal questions, birth dates or other pieces of private information -- are meant to provide some extra security padding.
     While phishing scams are nothing new to the world of online banking, this type of warning serves as a reminder of just how susceptible account holders can be to malicious attacks.  As more account holders begin to jump on the mobile banking bandwagon, it's important to remember that a smartphone essentially acts as another computer.  While this additional connection to the Internet is convenient, it also serves as another outlet where your information can be compromised.
     Here are a few crucial steps to take to avoid falling victim to this type of Internet crime.
  • Keep your computer and mobile device updated with the newest versions of anti-virus software.
  • If you have any doubts about an email sender's authenticity, do not click on any embedded links.
  • Remember, banks never request any personal information via email.
  • Be vigilant about checking your account balances. The sooner you notice and report any type of fraudulent activity, the more likely you'll be able to be reimbursed for any missing funds.

o'ICE Chief Ignores Agent-Shootings; In NYC Job-Seeking @ NBC, Viacom + Oscars

It's not like back when we worked with Customs! -- rfh
  From: lc Sent: Tuesday, February 21, 2012 Subject: FW: Obama ICE Chief Ignores Agent-Shootings; In NYC Job-Seeking @ NBC, Viacom, + Oscars
By Debbie Schlussel, February 20, 2012
Question:  Why is Barack Obama's top immigration cop blowing off the internecine shooting of a top agent and the death of another?
Answer:  He's busy using your tax dollars to fly to New York in his job search, meeting with top officials of NBC Universal and Viacom, trying to land a position as an entertainment lawyer.  Yup, you are paying for his post-Obama job quest, complete with a posse of bodyguards and top ICE staff, all of whom are aware of the job quest.
alfredenewman2.jpgalfrednewman6.jpg
     John E. Moron: What Me Worry About ICE Agent Shooting
     John Morton, Barack Obama's hand-picked Assistant Secretary of Homeland Security for Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) is blowing off the biggest tragedy in his agency's history–the shooting death of one agent, after he shot a top fellow LA agent.  The Los Angeles office of his agency is burning and the offices around the country are in simmer mode.  But John Morton can't be bothered.  Instead, DebbieSchlussel.com has learned that Morton is headed to New York City, where tomorrow, he will be spending yourmoney and resources meeting with officials of two major media companies with whom he's seeking a position and a $2 million annual salary. Rome is burning, but he's more concerned with his own personal irons in a different fire.
    On Friday, we told you about the shooting death of Ezequiel "Zeke" Garcia, an ICE Senior Supervisory Agent and Group Supervisor, after he shot his boss, Deputy ICE Special Agent in Charge for Los Angeles, Kevin Kozak.  It made news around the world and has caused a deeper within a failing agency already ripped apart by bad management, hamstrung agents not allowed to arrest illegal aliens, and an Obama policy urging illegal aliens to report ICE agents.  Morton, the Director of ICE, quickly flew in and out of Los Angeles because he has  Richard "Rick" Cotton, General Counsel and Executive Vice President of NBC Universal.  And, after lunch, Morton will dine with Michael Fricklas, Executive Vice President, General Counsel, and Secretary with Viacom, again seeking a job.  Sources say that Morton has already flown to New York City, on your dime, to meet with Rick Cotton on four previous occasions, but still hasn't gotten the job.  That's why the inept ICE "leader" hasn't yet resigned as he was expected to do at year's end. To make it look "legit," Morton is also flying a complete entourage of other ICE officials, including Suzie "Stripper Pole" Barr, Beth Gibson, Gary Meade, and Andrew Strait, to New York with him, along with his two ICE agent bodyguards and a chauffeur.  And he's inserted into the schedule a town hall and a meeting with some deportation officials.  But the real purpose is the job interviews.  FYI, Mr. Strait is the "advocate," a position created for him by Morton to "advocate" for illegal aliens arrested by ICE agents, who've called an 800 number created for illegal aliens to attack the agente who do their jobs.
     But, don't worry, he's expected back in LA next week–to attend the Academy Awards, not to investigate why a career agent snapped and shot his boss.  ICE sources tell DebbieSchlussel.com that Morton has made 20 trips to Los Angeles since he's headed the agency, most of them to try to curry favor with Hollywood bigwigs in his quest for a position as a high-paid legal beagle or exec with an entertainment company.  The sources also confirm that Morton accepted free tickets to the Emmy Awards, the Grammy Awards, as well as other major entertainment shows.  Accepting such coveted, expensive tickets for free, as Morton has for the Super Bowl among other such events, is improper and not allowed under strict ICE policies prohibiting personnel from accepting so much as a free meal.  But Morton is above the rules, apparently.  At least, in his own mind. And, in exchange, he steps up the tradition of turning ICE agents into the publicly-funded copyright police of NFL and Hollywood billionaires.
     Morton has assigned himself two career ICE agents to be his full-time bodyguards.  That's in addition to an agent who acts as his permanent chauffeur.  This entourage, which accompanies him everywhere including to his job interviews tomorrow, costs America $50,000 per month.  Morton ordered them to wear phony earpieces to impress those in attendance at a law school reunion.  The chauffeur and the bodyguards have also been seen ferrying Morton's girlfriend, not a government employee, around for easy booty call access.  Even Morton's high-flying predecessor, Julie L. Myers a/k/a "The ICE Queen," did not feel the need to have  bodyguards.  And what's the threat on his life?  Morton has forbidden ICE agents from arresting illegal aliens and provided a toll-free number and "advocate" to help the few who are arrested.  Illegal aliens love him.  However, I've heard that he faces imminent attack from a dead sarcophagus he might deport to Egypt.  That, FYI, is virtually the only deportation he's doing these days.

     Yes, a career ICE agent is dead after shooting and nearly killing a top Los Angeles ICE official.  And John Morton can't be bothered to be in Los Angeles for that.
     He has an entertainment job interview to go to.  And the Oscars.  Give the man an Academy Award for playing the head of Homeland Security's largest law enforcement agency.
     After all, he's just acting.

o'unpatriotic - A BHO Quote. Remember in November.

Need to remember this one Nov. 6th. -- rfh  "Another o'feet-of-clay quip." 

"The problem is that the way [President] Bush has done it over the last eight years is to take out a credit card from the Bank of China in the name of our children, driving up our national debt from $5 trillion dollars for the first 42 presidents -- number 43 added $4 trillion dollars by his lonesome -- so that we now have over $9 trillion dollars of debt that we are going to have to pay back.  [That's] $30,000 for every man, woman and child.  That's irresponsible.
It's unpatriotic."

o'3 card monty - Stimulus Package 101 :-)

From: bb Sent: Saturday, February 18, 2012 Subject:  Stimulus Package
     It's a slow day in the small town of Pumphandle, TN and the streets are deserted.  Times are tough, everybody is in debt, and everybody is living on credit.
     A tourist visiting the area drives through town, stops at the motel, and lays a $100 bill on the desk saying he wants to inspect the rooms upstairs to pick one for the night.
     As soon as he walks upstairs, the motel owner grabs the bill and runs next door to pay his debt to the butcher.
(Stay with this...and pay attention.)
     The butcher takes the $100 and runs down the street to retire his debt to the pig farmer.
     The pig farmer takes the $100 and heads off to pay his bill to his supplier, the Co-op.
     The guy at the Co-op takes the $100 and runs to pay his debt to the local prostitute, who has also been facing hard times and has had to offer her "services" on credit.
     The hooker rushes to the hotel and pays off her room bill with the hotel owner.
(Almost done...keep reading.)
     The hotel proprietor then places the $100 back on the counter so the traveler will not suspect anything.  At that moment the traveler comes down the stairs, states that the rooms are not satisfactory, picks up the $100 bill and leaves.
     No one produced anything.  No one earned anything.  However, the whole town now thinks that they are out of debt and there is a false atmosphere of optimism and glee.
     And that, my friends, is how a "stimulus package" works!

Are you a Democrat, a Republican, or a Southerner?
Here is a little test that will help you decide.
The answer can be found by posing the following question:
You're walking down a deserted street with your wife and two small children.  Suddenly, a Terrorist with a huge knife comes around the corner, locks eyes with you, screams obscenities, raises the knife, and charges at you... You are carrying a Kimber 1911 cal. .45 ACP, and you are an expert shot.  You have mere seconds before he reaches you and your family.  What do you do? 
THINK CAREFULLY AND THEN SCROLL DOWN.
Democrat's Answer:
  • Well, that's not enough information to answer the question!
  • Should I bow to him?
  • What is a Kimber 1911 cal. 45 ACP?
  • Does the man look poor or oppressed?
  • Is he really a terrorist?  Am I guilty of profiling?
  • Have I ever done anything to him that would inspire him to attack?
  • Could we run away?
  • What does my wife think?
  • What about the kids?
  • Could I possibly swing the gun like a club and knock the knife out of his hand?
  • What does the law say about this situation?
  • Does the pistol have appropriate safety built into it?
  • Why am I carrying a loaded gun anyway, and what kind of message does this send to society and to my children?
  • Is it possible he'd be happy with just killing me?
  • Does he definitely want to kill me, or would he be content just to wound me?
  • If I were to grab his knees and hold on, could my family get away while he was stabbing me?
  • Should I call 9-1-1?
  • Why is this street so deserted?
  • We need to raise taxes, have paint & weed day.
  • Can we make this a happier, healthier street that would discourage such behavior.
  • I need to debate this with some friends for a few days and try to come to a consensus.

"Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction.  We didn't pass it to our children in the bloodstream.  It must be fought for, protected, and handed on for them to do the same." - Ronald Reagan, President of the United States



Shocking! Is the FBI news below. 
     Meanwhile, "back at the o'ranch", the FBI, DHS & BATFE diligently press on - along side VIPR 'shock teams' and TSA checkpoints.  At the same time, these agencies are plastering the country with flyers and "watch" posters asking folks to report suspected "terrorists."  No problem with that if their anti-terrorist programs weren't taking on a life of their own.  The 'police state' mentality is beating down the resistance of real Americans to the indignities foisted on us by a radical, dangerous foreign ideology - an "acceptable" loss of Constitutional rights.  None of these flyers target "Islamic Jihadists", "Muslim Terrorists", "radical Easterners", Sharia, "foreigners", talk of Mosques or radical preaching inside them, etc. etc.  But they do mention Christian, Pro-Life, 2nd Amendment, Conservative or Libertarian Ron Paul supporters, and independence from government oppression.  You are not allowed to be self sufficient.  You may be deemed dangerous and be branded as "an enemy of the State."
    o'who? has openly questioned the Bill of Rights and our Contitution's relevance, not only to his view of government and its relation to the people, but to you and me, individuals - whose American Values are openly debased by his government regulators.  The people's beliefs in Constitutional rights are mocked at the behest of a 'politically incorrect' leader's facist/socialist/Marxist/anti-Western agenda.  The weight of his misguidance is being laid upon the back of our Judaeo-Christian Heritage.  Even foreign leaders warn of the danger ...read Geert Wilder's speech below.
     Honest hard working Americans will suffer in silence just as surely as those herded into gas chambers by the last Nazi dictator.
     Accepting a 'fundamentally changed' America will surely haunt us again - as on Ft. Hood.  Not that that isn't egregious enough ...none of the 'watch' agencies overtly profile ...for fear of offending those whose allegiance is to the East.  As if it wasn't enough to have our President bowing to Muslim kings  ...soon, all of these militant 'domestic security forces', not just the FBI, will scrape'n bow before anyone who so much as resembles an Arab.
    Meanwhile, "back at the o'ranch", White Granny'n Grandpa will have their diapers stripped from them at airports, you'll be visually scanner raped and "felt up" as often as 'they' deem it necessary.  Oh! ...And don't forget highway checkpoints "tossing your car", rail and bus stations, subways, and soon, shopping malls, all targets of "his" 'domestic security force.'  Do they make you feel safe from terrorists - or - fearful of the rising spectre of a "police state?"   After all, these officers are just 'following' orders.'  "Hande Hoch!" could be our fate.
    After all who needs a Constitution?  At the rate o'der leader is shaping his country, ours will be lost, drowned in the silence of us all bowing in submission to his rulings, edicts, and enforcers.  What a SNAFU.  Pray that November 6th's outcome saves America.  -- rfh

The February 8 FBI meeting was the culmination of a series of unpublicized directives issued in the last three months by top FBI officials to all its field offices to immediately recall and withdraw any presentation or curricula on Islam throughout the entire FBI. In fact, according to informed sources and undisclosed documents, the FBI directive was instigated by radical Muslim groups in the US who had repeatedly met with top officials of the Obama Administration to complain, among other things, that the mere usage of the term of "radical Islam" in FBI curricula was "offensive" and 'racist."

From: csk Sent: Monday, February 20, 2012 Subject: Islamization of Europe
Time is running out...
Geert Wilders, Chairman, Party of Freedom, Netherlands
In a generation or two, the US will ask itself: "Who lost Europe?"  Here is the speech of Geert Wilders, Chairman, Party for Freedom the Netherlands, at the Four Seasons in New York, introducing an Alliance of Patriots and announcing the Facing Jihad Conference in Jerusalem.
Dear friends,
Thank you very much for inviting me.
     I come to America with a mission.  All is not well in the old world.  There is a tremendous danger looming, and it is very difficult to be optimistic.  We might be in the final stages of the Islamization of Europe.  This not only is a clear and present danger to the future of Europe itself, it is a threat to America and the sheer survival of the West.  The United States as the last bastion of Western civilization, facing an Islamic Europe.
     First, I will describe the situation on the ground in Europe.  Then, I will say a few things about Islam. To close I will tell you about a meeting in Jerusalem. 
     The Europe you know is changing.
     You have probably seen the landmarks.  But in all of these cities, sometimes a few blocks away from your tourist destination, there is another world.  It is the world of the parallel society created by Muslim mass-migration.
     All throughout Europe a new reality is rising: entire Muslim neighborhoods where very few indigenous people reside or are even seen.  And if they are, they might regret it.  This goes for the police as well.  It's the world of head scarves, where women walk around in figureless tents, with baby strollers and a group of children.  Their husbands, or slaveholders if you prefer, walk three steps ahead.  With mosques on many street corners.  The shops have signs you and I cannot read.  You will be hard-pressed to find any economic activity.  These are Muslim ghettos controlled by religious fanatics.  These are Muslim neighborhoods, and they are mushrooming in every city across Europe.  These are the building-blocks for territorial control of increasingly larger portions of Europe, street by street, neighborhood by neighborhood, city by city.
     There are now thousands of mosques throughout Europe.   With larger congregations than there are in churches.  And in every European city there are plans to build super-mosques that will dwarf every church in the region.  Clearly, the signal is: we rule.
     Many European cities are already one-quarter Muslim: just take Amsterdam, Marseille and Malmo in Sweden.   In many cities the majority of the under-18 population is Muslim.  Paris is now surrounded by a ring of Muslim neighborhoods.  Mohammed is the most popular name among boys in many cities.
     In some elementary schools in Amsterdam the farm can no longer be mentioned, because that would also mean mentioning the pig, and that would be an insult to Muslims.
     Many state schools in Belgium and Denmark only serve halal food to all pupils.  In once-tolerant Amsterdam gays are beaten up almost exclusively by Muslims.  Non-Muslim women routinely hear 'whore, whore'.  Satellite dishes are not pointed to local TV stations, but to stations in the country of origin.
     In France school teachers are advised to avoid authors deemed offensive to Muslims, including Voltaire and Diderot; the same is increasingly true of Darwin.   The history of the Holocaust can no longer be taught because of Muslim sensitivity.
     In England sharia courts are now officially part of the British legal system.  Many neighborhoods in France are no-go areas for women without head scarves.  Last week a man almost died after being beaten up by Muslims in Brussels, because he was drinking during the Ramadan.
     Jews are fleeing France in record numbers, on the run for the worst wave of anti-Semitism since World War II.  French is now commonly spoken on the streets of Tel Aviv and Netanya, Israel.   I could go on forever with stories like this.  Stories about Islamization.
     A total of fifty-four million Muslims now live.  San Diego University recently calculated that a staggering 25 percent of the population in Europe will be Muslim just 12 years from now.  Bernhard Lewis has predicted a Muslim majority by the end of this century.
     Now these are just numbers.  And the numbers would not be threatening if the Muslim-immigrants had a strong desire to assimilate.  But there are few signs of that.  The Pew Research Center reported that half of French Muslims see their loyalty to Islam as greater than their loyalty to France.   One-third of French Muslims do not object to suicide attacks.  The British Centre for Social Cohesion reported that one-third of British Muslim students are in favor of a worldwide caliphate.  Muslims demand what they call 'respect'.  And this is how we give them respect.  We have Muslim official state holidays.
     The Christian-Democratic attorney general is willing to accept sharia in the Netherlands if there is a Muslim majority.  We have cabinet members with passports from Morocco and Turkey. 
     Muslim demands are supported by unlawful behavior, ranging from petty crimes and random violence, for example against ambulance workers and bus drivers, to small-scale riots.  Paris has seen its uprising in the low-income suburbs, the banlieus.  I call the perpetrators 'settlers'.  Because that is what they are.  They do not come to integrate into our societies; they come to integrate our society into their Dar-al-Islam.  Therefore, they are settlers.
     Much of this street violence I mentioned is directed exclusively against non-Muslims, forcing many native people to leave their neighborhoods, their cities, their countries.  Moreover, Muslims are now a swing vote not to be ignored.
     The second thing you need to know is the importance of Mohammed the prophet.  His behavior is an example to all Muslims and cannot be criticized.  Now, if Mohammed had been a man of peace, let us say like Ghandi and Mother Theresa wrapped in one, there would be no problem.  But Mohammed was a warlord, a mass murderer, a pedophile, and had several marriages - at the same time.  Islamic tradition tells us how he fought in battles, how he had his enemies murdered and even had prisoners of war executed.  Mohammed himself slaughtered the Jewish tribe of Banu Qurayza.  If it is good for Islam, it is good.  If it is bad for Islam, it is bad.
     Let no one fool you about Islam being a religion.  Sure, it has a god, and a here-after, and 72 virgins.  But in its essence Islam is a political ideology.  It is a system that lays down detailed rules for society and the life of every person.  Islam wants to dictate every aspect of life.  Islam means 'submission'.  Islam is not compatible with freedom and democracy, because what it strives for is sharia.  If you want to compare Islam to anything, compare it to communism or national-socialism, these are all totalitarian ideologies.
     Now you know why Winston Churchill called Islam 'the most retrograde force in the world', and why he compared Mein Kampf to the Quran.  The public has wholeheartedly accepted the Palestinian narrative, and sees Israel as the aggressor.  I have lived in this country and visited it dozens of times.  I support Israel.  First, because it is the Jewish homeland after two thousand years of exile up to and including Auschwitz; second because it is a democracy, and third because Israel is our first line of defense.
     This tiny country is situated on the fault line of jihad, frustrating Islam's territorial advance.  Israel is facing the front lines of jihad, like Kashmir, Kosovo, the Philippines, Southern Thailand, Darfur in Sudan, Lebanon, and Aceh in Indonesia.   Israel is simply in the way.  The same way West-Berlin was during the Cold War.
     The war against Israel is not a war against Israel.   It is a war against the West.  It is jihad.  Israel is simply receiving the blows that are meant for all of us.  If there would have been no Israel, Islamic imperialism would have found other venues to release its energy and its desire for conquest.  Thanks to Israeli parents who send their children to the army and lay awake at night, parents in Europe and America can sleep well and dream, unaware of the dangers looming.
     Many in Europe argue in favor of abandoning Israel in order to address the grievances of our Muslim minorities.  But if Israel were, God forbid, to go down, it would not bring any solace to the West.   It would not mean our Muslim minorities would all of a sudden change their behavior, and accept our values.  On the contrary, the end of Israel would give enormous encouragement to the forces of Islam.  They would, and rightly so, see the demise of Israel as proof that the West is weak, and doomed.  The end of Israel would not mean the end of our problems with Islam, but only the beginning.  It would mean the start of the final battle for world domination.  If they can get Israel, they can get everything.  So-called journalists volunteer to label any and all critics of Islamization as a 'right-wing extremists' or 'racists'.  In my country, the Netherlands, 60 percent of the population now sees the mass immigration of Muslims as the number one policy mistake since World War II.  And another 60 percent sees Islam as the biggest threat.  Yet there is a greater danger than terrorist attacks, the scenario of America as the last man standing.  The lights may go out in Europe faster than you can imagine.  An Islamic Europe means a Europe without freedom and democracy, an economic wasteland, an intellectual nightmare, and a loss of military might for America - as its allies will turn into enemies, enemies with atomic bombs.  With an Islamic Europe, it would be up to America alone to preserve the heritage of Rome, Athens and Jerusalem.  ...
     Dear friends, liberty is the most precious of gifts.  My generation never had to fight for this freedom, it was offered to us on a silver platter, by people who fought for it with their lives.  All throughout Europe, American cemeteries remind us of the young boys who never made it home, and whose memory we cherish.  My generation does not own this freedom; we are merely its custodians.  We can only hand over this hard won liberty to Europe's children in the same state in which it was offered to us.  We cannot strike a deal with mullahs and imams.  Future generations would never forgive us.  We cannot squander our liberties.  We simply do not have the right to do so.
     We have to take the necessary action now to stop this Islamic stupidity from destroying the free world that we know.
