We Still Stand With Israel

I've been visiting some Facebook pages over the last few days, paying particular attention to posts about Israel and its fight against hamass (deliberately misspelled). I've seen some amazing and heartening comments which give me hope. I now know that the majority of American citizens still stand with Israel.

Other comments I've seen are the written approximation of the video of the Marine veteran, who was punched, kicked, and spit upon by pro-Palestine supporters in front of the White House recently, and they're infuriating to say the least.

I read one comment, written by one "Jo Freedom." She went on a long soliloquy about how it's the duty of the "palestinians" to resist the "occupier" that is Israel, and lobbing rockets into Israel is a perfectly acceptable tactic.

She was correct in only one aspect. It is the duty of the citizens of an occupied nation to resist the occupiers.

She, and others like her, fail to take some very basic facts into account (more likely ignore) when they talk about the Israeli "occupation."

One, Israel unilaterally withdrew from Gaza in 2005, so there is no "occupying force" to resist. In fact, when Israel pulled out, the entirety of the Gaza Strip was in far better shape (under those evil, Arab-hating Jews) than it is today (under those Arab-loving hamass "angels").

Two, in all of recorded history, there has never been a nation called "Palestine." Palestine is a region, akin to a county here in the U.S. The so-called "palestinians" are Egyptian, Syrian, and Jordanian by ancestry. They were abandoned by those nations after Israel kicked their collective asses in the various wars the Arabs started.

Three, Israel would like nothing more than to live in peace. Israelis don't "hate" Arabs. If they did, the hundreds of thousands living inside the borders of Israel right this second wouldn't be there, would they? Millions upon millions of dollars have been spent, by Israel, to improve the lives of the "palestinians," building hospitals, schools, and other improvements, all while some of them are trying to lop the head off of those helping them.

If the "palestinians" really want to "resist" an occupying force, perhaps they should turn their attention to hamass, and the other terror groups existing amongst them, and eradicate them like the vermin they are.

Then, and only then, should Israel, and the rest of the world, treat with them. ~ Hunter

Saying What Needs Saying, Political Correctness Be Damned

Friends, here's a man who tells it like it is, much like I believe MLK would, about the rioting and looting in Ferguson, MO. This is very powerful, and Johnathan Gentry is right on the money. Kudos to him for saying what needs saying. ~ Hunter

Robin Williams, Comedic Genius 1951-2014

This isn't my normal fare. I loathe the entertainment world like most people loathe the political one, but I believe this had to be mentioned.

For those who don't already know, Robin Williams died yesterday of asphyxiation in an apparent suicide.

I don't know the man's politics very well, nor do I care. What I *do* know is that, from all accounts, he was a genuine person - a realty in Hollyweird. He did much for our troops, going on 6 separate USO tours, and was very active in raising money for St. Jude's Children's Hospital.

His comedic genius was legendary, his roles more memorable than not, and he will be sorely missed in a world desperately needing more laughter.

My favorite memories of him are his roles as Mork from Ork and as the Genie in Alladin. Share your memories as we remember the late, great Robin Williams. ~ Hunter

Move Along - Nothing To See Here

23,584: It's been 31 days since my last post on this subject, and shock of all shocks, there's been no let up from the followers of mohammed (all mentions of anything muslim are in lowercase letters to denote my disrespect). Between then and now, there's been 260 attacks with fatalities committed by islamic terrorists, a little over eight attacks per day.

One hundred sixty people, including an undetermined number, but at least three children, have been killed in 6 known attacks committed on just one day, 6 AUG 2014. No need to average that number.


During ramadan, the so-called "holiest month" of the muslim calendar, there was:
272 terror attacks
37 allahu akbars
2429 dead bodies (for those keeping score, that's almost 81 people killed per day)
2028 wounded

By the way, still no Christians killing in the name of Christianity (but Christians are the most evil people in the world, dontcha know?).

Between 26 JUL 14 and 01 AUG14, there were:

75 jihad attacks
10 “allahu akbar” suicide attacks
707 dead bodies (that's 101 per day) 
711 critically injured in these attacks

Very busy week.

Let's look at the totals for just July 2014:

268 jihad attacks
28 countries
41 "allahu akbars"
2660 dead bodies (averaging almost 94 people murdered in the name of allah per day)
2079 critically injured

The numbers for the entirety of 2013 are bringing the reality of the “religion” of “peace” will bring some additional clarity to this post:

2801 jihad attacks
51 countries
16,170 dead bodies (average of just under 86 people killed PER DAY)
29,432 critically injured

To put this in a little perspective, the estimate - which is based on new, very thorough research - of people killed during the entire *500* years of the Medieval and the Spanish Inquisitions is about 6,000 deaths. While those deaths are reprehensible, and all Catholics lament them, it's not quite the same, is it? The acknowledged average estimate is around 30,000.

I have no patience for the people who say that the Inquisition was just as bad as islamic terrorism, especially given that anyone with half a brain, and five minutes can easily find this information online. The next time someone brings up the Inquisition, you now have the facts to refute their arguments.

I know some will say I'm “islamophobic.” That's fine; it's not true, mind you - but I can handle that. To those people, however, I submit this: A phobia is an “unreasoning fear” of something. With numbers like I've detailed above, you have to ask yourselves one question: Is it really “unreasoning fear” when their mantra is “Convert or Die”? ~ Hunter

The Tolerance Of Liberalism, Or Proud To Be Called A Traitor

I received my very first threat on this blog a couple of days ago from a rabid liberal - and apparently professional - crayon-eater. "He" objected to my conservatism and my belief that criminal aliens should be deported as soon as possible.

http://liberalsarehypocrites.blogspot.com/2014/03/operation-wetback-or-how-us-dealt-with.html

It was really quite amusing, and not frightening in the least, but what made it all the more amusing was that this open-minded, oh-so-tolerant window-licker called me a traitor based on the meme at the top of this page, and when "it all goes down," he promised to "meet me on the battlefield" (after saying I would never see him).

I'd like to remind the Lurking LiberTrolls out there that the Founders intended for people to love their country, not their government. That's the reason the military, all members of all 3 branches of the government, and all federal employees swear an oath to the Constitution and not the government or the President.

"I, Michael J. Flanagan Jr., do solemnly swear that I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic; that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same; that I take this obligation freely, without any mental reservation or purpose of evasion, pledging my life, my fortune, and my sacred honor. So help me God."

I took that oath on 27 JUL 1988. My oath, now 26 long years gone, has never expired. If believing in, following, and defending the most brilliant document ever written by man - the very foundation of this nation - makes me a "traitor," well............................that's a cross I'm willing to bear.

Oh, before I forget - if you decide to come after me, "sir," you better make sure you kill me with the 1st shot, because if you don't, you will not get a second chance at it. ~ Hunter

We Stand With Israel

Pop some popcorn, folks, and buckle in, because this might be a bumpy ride.

I need to get a few things off my chest, and this might turn into a rant, which is pretty rare for me. If I offend anyone with what I say tonight, oh well. You're probably who and/or what I'm talking about.

Let it be known, and entered into the record, that this page stands 100% with Israel. If you don't like that, well, this isn't the page for you.

Ever since the ground action by Israel into Gaza, I've been seeing more and more anti-Israel comments. Not so many on the pages I write for, thank God, and the ones I have seen on our pages have been cleaned up fairly quickly, but on just about every other page I frequent. It frightens me that so many Americans would be so against our only true ally in the Middle East. I even saw a comment tonight that basically said Hitler had provocation for the Holocaust. REALLY?! There is no possible justification for the extermination of 6 million Jews, along with the countless other "undesirables" as Hitler saw them. Period.

If you profess to be a Christian, a devout follower of Jesus Christ, yet spout anti-Semitic nonsense, you're an idiot of the highest magnitude. Psst - I know this might be a little difficult for you crayon-eaters to understand, but I'll use the smallest words possible, just for you - Jesus was a JEW. *G*A*S*P* I realize that might be shocking to you, but it's true, numbnuts. Don't bring your tripe onto this page, as you're not only not a Christian, you bring down the I.Q. points of everyone who has to read your drivel.

Speaking out in favor of hamass (deliberately misspelled) is a quick way to get on my bad side as well. Israel, much like the U.S., generally tends to react to situations, often placing themselves in far greater danger than they probably should. Yes, I realize that they're somewhat proactive, but I would submit necessarily so. After all, they're surrounded by literally millions upon millions of people who would like nothing more than to wipe them out down to the last man, woman, and child. If you support muslims, you will not do so on this page. I trust that's clear?

Keep in mind that this is NOT a "debate" page. I, and a couple of the other admins on our pages, will argue a few points with a LiberTroll or two, but not often, and it usually ends quickly. This page is a respite for conservatives, a place to gather facts, etc., for the daily battle for the future of this once great nation, and we will continue to provide that respite as best i can. One thing I will not do is allow the stench of liberalism and its ilk to pollute the air.

Can I possibly make this any clearer? ~ Hunter

What's Wrong With America: Disposability

I was listening to a few people talking while at work the other day. The subject of the conversation was happiness in a marriage - more specifically, the lack of happiness in a marriage.

I don't recall the details too clearly, but what drew my attention was a remark made by a woman I work with declaring "if she wasn't happy in a marriage, she'd get a divorce." She made it sound like she wanted to be made happy in a marriage every minute, of every day, of every year, and would tolerate nothing less.

It was an offhand comment, and while I'm sure she didn't truly intend to sound so flippant, it did get me thinking about one of the issues facing society today: Disposability.

Don't misunderstand - I'm not talking about disposable diapers, or disposable razors, or any of the countless other disposable products that have made our lives easier in a basic sense. Those are little things overall. No, my issue is with the larger things that have become "disposable" to far too many in America. I'm talking about the bigger picture, if you will.

Marriage used to be a lifelong commitment. My own grandmother became a widow in 1948, two short years after my father was born. Not only was she still a widow when she passed away in 1993, to the best of my knowledge, my grandmother never even dated anyone after my grandfather died. All of her siblings, save one, were married, just once, and they stayed married for decades.

My own parents have been married just shy of forty-five years. It hasn't been easy, especially with ten children. They're both as stubborn as mules, both quick to anger, and neither quick to forgive and/or forget. But commitments were made and, thus far, honored.

Today, it seems people believe that they just deserve to be happy, but it also seems like they believe they don't have to work at it.

(Hey, if you can find a relationship that works like that outside of some ridiculous TV show, more power to ya. The rest of us will just have to be jealous while we work at ours.)

Marriage today is disposable. You don't like how much money your spouse makes - kick him/her to the curb and find someone else. Don't like your sex life? Let's go out and find a new partner. The list of "grievances" could go on until the end of time. People today give up at the slightest hint of trouble. The United States is becoming a nation of quitters.

(For the record, I am in NO WAY advocating that people stay in a violent or abusive relationship. NOBODY has the right to commit violence upon another.)

What went wrong? Why do so many take the easy way out?

To my mind, it all comes down to progressivism. (I won't call them liberals any longer. The Founders were liberals. Today, they would be known as conservatives.)

Progressives have broken down everything that once made this nation the envy of the world. Your marriage is rough? It's not your fault. End it and find another one. Your parents want you to take responsibility for your mistakes? You don't have to take that from them. You don't need them anyway. After all, it takes a village. You're pregnant because you had unprotected sex? Kill it. It's not your fault, so you shouldn't have to be "punished" with that non-human blob of goo. Then you can go back to your fun!!! You're  a minority? Well hell, the white man keeps you down (they're all racists). Here, take this money. You don't need to demean yourself and actually work to better yourself. Just make sure to vote for us in the next election and we'll take care of you. Wink, wink

Everything is disposable to a progressive. Once it's served its purpose they get rid of it. Relationships, self-esteem and pride in one's own ability and self worth - none of that matters anymore. Even human life is disposable to a progressive. Just witness the murder of 3,300 or so of pre-born human beings every day. (And that's just here in the U.S.)

We need to get back to a reverence for the better way of doing things, instead of taking the easy way.

But most of all, we need to get back to a reverence for life, because without that, everything else - and I do mean everything - really is disposable. ~ Hunter
