Can’t Remember The Past? Condemned to Repeat It
Conversations that have been transforming the world for some time. They read like Hitler’s Mein Kampf.
During the Second World War, the Islamic Nations supported Hitler and the final solution.
The modern Islamic jihad began in 1928 in Egypt founded by Hassan al-Banna of the Muslim Brotherhood. It is the forerunner of Al Qaeda and Hamas.
Al-Banna was an admirer of the fascist leaders Hitler and Mussolini. He makes a formal alliance with them during WWII. The Muslim Brotherhood translates Mein Kampf and the Protocols of the Elders of Zion into Arabic.
In Palastine, the Hajj Amin al-Husseini, Grand Mufti of Jerulsalem, creates a youth organization that uses Nazi emblems, names and uniforms.
During the war Adolf Hitler met several times with his ally the Hajji Amin al-Husseini. Al-Husseini is the supreme spiritual leader of Palestine’s Muslims and the father of Palestinian nationalism. Huseini starts a youth organization that instigates a Nazi coups in Iraq in 1941 and urges Nazi governments in Europe to transport Jews to death camps, and trains pro-Nazi Bosnian Muslims. While praising Hitler for killing Jews, Husseini plans a death camp modeled on Auschwitz to be constructed near Nablus to exterminate Palestine’s Jews.
Nazism is eradicated in Europe after WWII, but lives on in the Arab world. Militant Imams create a fascist form of Islam. Chief architect of the new Islamic fascism is the Muslim Brotherhood’s Sayyid Qutb.
Qutyb believes Jews are responsible for the world’s moral decay and are the root of the world’s evil. His writings support the Nazi goals of the Muslim Brotherhood. His greatest disciple is Ayman al-Zawahiri – Osama bin Laden’s right hand man and the most wanted terrorist in the world today.
“O Allah, destroy America, as it is controlled by Zionist Jews…Allah will avenge, in the name of his Prophet, the colonist settlers who are descendents of monkeys and pigs…”
Ikrime Sabri, Mufti of the Palestinian Authority, weekly sermon in the Al-Aqsa Mosque 1996
To the Islamic Nations America is “The Great Satan” and Israel is “The Little Satan”
“The accomplishment of a world without America and Israel is both possible and feasible!” President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad
“Our thanks go to the late Hitler who wrought, in advance the vengeance of the Palestinians upon the most despicable villains on the face of the earth. However, we rebuke Hitler for the fact that the vengeance was insufficient.”
Al-Akhbar, Egypt’s second largest newspaper
“We plan to eliminate the state of Israel and establish a purely Palestinian state. We will make life unbearable for Jews by psychological warfare and population explosion. We Palestinians will take over everything, including all of Jerusalem.”
Yasser Arafat
(Interesting to note that the Israli Citizens who are Palestinian have more civil liberties than in any Arab Nation on earth.)
“Who are they?” Ahmadinejad asked referring to the Jews.
“Where did they come from? Are they human beings? They are like cattle, nay, more misguided. A bunch of bloodthirsty barbarians!”
“If they gather in Israel, it will save us the trouble of going after them world wide!”
Hassan Nasrallah head of Hezbollah
“Kill them. Kill the Jews and those among the Americans that are like them… Have no mercy on the Jews, murder them everywhere…”
Palestinian TV, October 13, 2000
“In compliance with God’s order, we issue the following fatwah (ruling on Islamic law) to all Muslims: The ruling to kill Americans and their allies – the civilians and military – is an individual duty for every Muslim who can do it in any country in which it is possible to do it… to comply with God’s order to kill the Americans and plunder their money wherever and whenever find it. We also call on Muslim ulema, leaders, youths, and soldiers to launch the raid on Satan’s U.S. troops and the devils supporters allying with them,…”
Osama Bin Laden, Jihad Against Jews and Crusaders, 1998
What concerns drive these conversations? There doesn’t seem to be any ambiguity as to the speaker’s intent. So, if we hear them are we not party to these conversations? And, if we are a party to them and say as well as do nothing, then are we not complicit in whatever may come upon us? In our silence are we inviting history to repeat itself?
“The limits of tyrants are prescribed by the endurance of those whom they oppress.”
Frederick Douglas
While on my military deployment to Iraq in 2006, the two most common critical questions asked to the American troops I was with were NOT, why are you occupying our country?, or why are you trying to force your democracy on us?
Instead they were these: can we download your pornography onto our cell phones please? and why does your country support Israel?
Thank God for the Great Satan, America, and for its pornography! It seems to be an apt preoccupation and diversion for some Iraquis who could otherwise be brainstorming about launching a “raid on Satan’s U.S. troops and the devils supporters allying with them.” Ouch!
More on a serious note, you’ve just gotta love evil. For some folks, it’s a killer. For others of us, it’s a no-brainer. Its subtleties numb us out and we get to be indifferent!!
There’s a game I personally play: Evil VS Indifference. Over the course of the game there’s a way I play out evil and there’s a way I play out indifference. Guess what, it’s the same rules for both types of play.
Wow,what a game!! And what a relief it is to me to be able to equate evil and indifference with “play”. It’s very convenient, actually. That way I get to let history play itself out without any envolvement on my part except for justifiably criticizing and condemning those horrible muslim terroists for attacking us.
There’s a logical question here for me: how am I really all that different from a God-fearing killer activist? Maybe I’m just a God-fearing killer indifferentist.
One other thought, a good friend and a mentor of mine gave me this charge. I have his charge/quote framed in a picture which hangs on the wall by my desk in my office back home.
Here it is: “Kick against indifference until it bleeds life.”
Believe me, my friend, I am, and %#*^>@ hard at that!!!
He told me
Americans are too busy being distracted and medicated to have a true voice. Those who are awake cannot see our own weakness and vulnerability as we busy ourselves abroad. We are the cow being fattened for the kill.
Adelina,
It is true for many Americans. I happen to know though that there is a grass roots movement rising up. Check out the links on this site and also look up ACT America. They are doing some great work across this country to raise awareness and prevent Nazislamists (my word) from doing in America what they have already acheived in Europe.
Adelina, I love your honesty and courage.
Todays Thoughts and Provocations—
Some of my favorite God-fearing killer indifferentists’ numbing-out, passion-killing, content-to-live-in-denial internal conversations:
“What can I do? I’m just one person.”
“Just leave well enough alone, I say.”
“We have enough problems of our own…”
“You better clean up your own backyard before…”
“Who do you think you are?”
“Mind your own business.”
“I’m so busy as it is.”
“I’ve never done anything like this before.”
“Isn’t that what James Dobson is for?”
“Truthfully, it scares the crap otta’ me.”
Anybody out there want add some of their own personal cop-outs?
How about:
“we know how it all ends anyway.”
“as long as it doesn’t directly affect me or my oikos.”
“it’s all just a consiracy theory.”
My own phrase was “our own government is involved, so what can I say?” I sometimes think it is a waste to begin, join or support a movement because it just seems that all roads lead to Bablyon. LOL.
Dan, thanks for the references. Over time I have just watched the new and done my own thinking but haven’t really educated myself. I have come to a point that if I am going to stand for something and occupy space on this earth earth, I should be well read on the issues.
Your wisdom is refreshing. Some books that have really opened my eyes are:
- Infidel by Ayaan Hirsi Ali
- Because They Hate by Bridgette Babriel
- While Europe Slept by Bruce Brawer
- The Legacy of Jihad Islamic Holy War and
the fate of Non-Muslims Edited by Andrew G. Boston.
Do check out the Terrorism Awareness link on this page!!
Dan,
I really liked your comments and comparison of the 3rd Reich, and the Muslim groups known as to claim Jihad. I just wanted to state my belief. Anyone who attempts to take our freedoms will face a fast, fierce and Swift Resolve. The United States Marines.
Have a great Day!

Something you said got me to thinking. Your quote: “our own government is involved, so what can I say?”
The implication I hear from your heart is that their is a disconnect: “our own government” is one identity and you as a person is a separate identity. And this disconnect produces futility in your mind.
Two questions for you, is there a disconnect in identities with you and “government”, and secondly, is futility an apt description?
My question for all of us is: In America, who is the government?
Hanto,
I know the “right” thing to say is that we are the government and to a certain extent this is true. It is also true that there are a few “good men” & women who are acting on our behalf, have a fiduciary responsibility to those whom they represent, that actually make the decisions. Interestingly enough, with war on terrorism, sub prime economic crisis, looming budget deficit and the debacle of our education system they have decided to spend millions of dollars and take precious time to legislate professional athletes who have or have not used steroids. Go figure? Perhaps the question is who does the government we have elected represent?
Dan
Can’t remember the past, condemned to repeat it. The past includes the framework of the constitution – the most incredible, enduring, freedom-giving, government document ever written.
If I’m not mistaken, the concept of education in our country had its roots in the necessity to teach reading, writing and arithmetic so we the citizenry wouldn’t be screwing each other over socially and economically and politically. Early education was about keeping future generations informed what the constitution is all about and the duties all forms of government were created to maintain and perform.
Let’s start a conversation about what the constitution contains to see what we’re missing. Then, from our conversations we’ll gain some insights into how we created the social predicaments and farces we’re facing today. They sure didn’t happen over night. Over the decades, it all slowly got voted into place by us the constituents.
What’s missing? What’s wanted and needed?
What’s next?
A good friend and mentor taught me this come-from?
I have a very saucy video of Ted Nugent speaking up about our right to bear arms from a constitutional standpoint. He makes a fantastic point, in no uncertain terms, if you don’t mind a little profanity.
Leo
Are you up for a little constitutional cage rattling?
Adelina
You observed about yourself:
“I have come to a point that if I am going to stand for something and occupy space on this earth earth, I should be well read on the issues.”
How ’bout becoming very conversant about the issues along with being well read?
Hi Hanto:
I am interested in your question for me regarding the disconnect. I don’t quite understand it. can you rephrase it for me. It really sounds interesting.
About a few “good men” and women who are supposed to act on our behalf and represent, well I have my own observations. There are different types of politicians and few of them leave office “good”. There are those who start with a passion to change things in their own community and become representatives in small groups, then move on to city government. The heart is there for the community and strives for change. Soon, there is a realization that in order to get something done that would benefit the community, they sell their support in some other commercial area in exchange for support on community issues. As they move up in office, whatever passion for the people is gone and only the struggle to survive the politics remains.
The Constitution is one of the most awesome documents. It was written by men who had NO idea how much FOR the PEOPLE it would end up being. Their primary goal was to be free to own property and not pay taxes. They didn’t have non-property owning people in mind, they were securing their future as property owners. Throughout history, that document has opened the door for the freedom of slaves, women to vote etc.. I like this topic and would like to see a blog on it.
Oh yeah..I am so open for conversation. Please excuse my ignorance. This feels great though and encourages me to read. Dan…thanks for the book references and I am going to start reading.
Adelina
Hey, I’m back.
You said something so enlightening for me, and I quote:
“The Constitution is one of the most awesome documents. It was written by men who had NO idea how much FOR the PEOPLE it would end up being. Their primary goal was to be free to own property and not pay taxes. They didn’t have non-property owning people in mind, they were securing their future as property owners. Throughout history, that document has opened the door for the freedom of slaves, women to vote etc..”
This past Tuesday, while in conversation with a colleague, we hit on the constitution. His take is that the constitution opened the door and guarantees an open door for free enterprise. Between his comment and your comment, I think we’re on to something.
Blog on!!
Thanks, Dan, for starting these conversations that transform.
Hi Adelina
I said this to you the other day:
“Something you said got me to thinking. Your quote: “our own government is involved, so what can I say?”
The implication I hear from your heart is that their is a disconnect: “our own government” is one identity and you as a person is a separate identity. And this disconnect produces futility in your mind.
Two questions for you, is there a disconnect in identities with you and “government”, and secondly, is futility an apt description?”
Let me restate it.
Do you feel you have a voice in government, or is “the government” so big, and is out of touch with the world you live in, that for you to speak up would feel like an effort in futility?
There; how’s that?

I pulled this out of one of your blogs:
“About a few “good men” and women who are supposed to act on our behalf and represent, well I have my own observations. There are different types of politicians and few of them leave office “good”. There are those who start with a passion to change things in their own community and become representatives in small groups, then move on to city government.

As they move up in office, whatever passion for the people is gone and only the struggle to survive the politics remains.”
Interestingly enough, we have a possible conundrum here.

n.
A riddle in which a fanciful question is answered by a pun.
A paradoxical, insoluble, or difficult problem; a dilemma: “the conundrum, thus far unanswered, of achieving full employment without inflation” (Arthur M. Schlesinger, Jr.)
Now, here’s our possible conundrum. I recently read that Abraham Lincoln may have been the father of the pork barrel. According to the article, he had a few “thank you’s” to pay to his supporters who helped him pull off the outcome of the Civil War.
Is it possible that over the past couple hundred of years or so that this “noble notion” has unwittingly gotten way out of control and it now taints “good men?”
Mystery is fascinating!!!!!!!! You just have to love a good mystery.!
You didn’t really think that Al Qaeda’s deputy leader, Ayman al-Zawahiri, could become any more of an asshole, but it turns out that the intellectual architect of a reactionary band of religious fanatics
