It's a little lengthy, but it won't kill you to read it...

I received a letter this week from a young Muslim man sending a dire warning to Americans. Yeah, I was as surprised as you are! He sought me out as someone who would actually listen because of my writings. What he said rang true... and terrifying.

He wrote of being raised in Islamic ideology, and the subtle, sinister methods that go beyond bombings and murder. He states it perfectly, and should be heeded by wise freedom-lovers. It bears repeating... a LOT of repeating. His own words are best, so read for yourself:

"... I was part of the frightening "system" until I broke away. The conspiracy is more subtle and pervasive than even the most paranoid among you can fathom... All this bin Laden, Taliban and al Qaeda story is the greatest diversionary tactic in history. The real invasion is more insidious, serious and much further along then you can possibly imagine. And it is your own liberal halves that are playing such a vital role in that. I'm talking about the silent invasion of your universities by our people. Open any leading American university's website and look at the list of professors and graduate students, you will see a plethora of muslim names. These are people that are in America, taking advantage of American know-how, and waiting to go back to their own countries to strengthen them.

"For the past century, your strength has been your lead in technology, but can you maintain that in the face of the fact the MAJORITY of doctoral students in your universities' technological programs are foreigners?... And it's not just us Muslims who are invading your universities. The greatest invasion is by Chinese and Indians, but there is a healthy percentage of Pakistanis, Egyptians, Turks, Indonesians and Arabs.

"I myself am a doctoral student... like the rest of the horde, I was a cog in the wheel. It is something that is not actively taught or talked about. It is like a subliminal message that is hammered into you.

"Can you imagine the damage that will be done if suddenly half of your university brainpower leaves?...But can you imagine the damage if half of that brain power goes to Islamic countries?... Every year thousands of young (muslims) leave for the US and Europe where they get graduate degrees in engineering and the sciences. Your own people are studying dancing, music, theatre, and art; all the while the knowledge that has made you powerful is slipping through your fingers.

"Wake up!... You can't let (Muslim) ideology become the dominant one in the world. Already the nordic races are disappearing...It's the same in the US. You are being invaded by illegal immigrants, diluting your country to the point of fracture. Muslims are multiplying like rabbits while you are busy in family planning and aborting the babies that CAN be born. Do you think any amount of technological superiority will be able to guarantee your supremacy in the face of 1-to-10 numerical inferiority? How will you maintain your identity as a nation when English is replaced by Spanish as the national language? Already there are school systems in the southern states that are teaching pupils in Spanish. Do your people not see this as a loss of national identity?


"What are your people doing about this? I'll tell you what. After 9/11, background checks were instituted for foreign students coming into the US. Because of this foreign student applications dropped... This instigated a crisis among universities, regents started writing congress and the senate telling them that it is an unacceptable situation. You can't find suitable graduate researchers out of 300 million people? You people need to shape up and start taking things seriously. Your secretary of state Colin Powell announced in Pakistan last year that the US would do everything to facilitate Pakistani students in the US. Stop bending over backwards and being so apologetic just for trying to protect yourselves from crazed fanatics."

Well well well. So now the rest of the world is recognizing us as a country apologizing for its own existence.

This young man isn't someone who can be labeled by our Politically Castrated press as a "racist white American," thereby disarming him and leaving him impotent. He has not been taught in America's education system to fear such an accusation as we in America have been taught. He simply states the truth...an odd concept in the age of wretched liberal control. His caveat is one that wise patriots have been trumpeting for some time now, but irrational liberals have disarmed, disabled, and disavowed. Read on:

"Take a look at this. It lists famous mathematicians by country. France is the highest with 211, England is second with 204, both countries are 20% the size of the US by population. This is because the US entered the game late. But entered it well. You had a good educational base and capitalized on it.

"Now I will come to my point. If the US could pull off this coup in the latter half of the 20th (even with such an apparently glaring discrepancy compared to France and England), then what is to stop someone else from pulling off the same coup in the latter half of the 21st?"

I couldn't have said it better myself. This man's name should be on this article for writing it, and it would be too... if he didn't deeply fear Muslim reprisals. Even he is not safe from radical irrational rage.

Since when did defense become an evil? Since when do righteous people have to justify themselves for rejecting the wicked? We have had many wise, wonderful leaders... when exactly did we forget and lose our vigilance?

This is our land, and by God--yes, by Him!--it is up to us to defend her and keep the evil doer out. Closing our borders is an act that isn't political--it's critical!

Our duty to ourselves, to posterity, and to mankind, call on us by every motive which is sacred or honorable, to watch over the safety of our beloved country...--Thomas Jefferson

Logic, reason, truth... why is it that we're having to be taught that by foreigners?

Keep the faith, bros, and in all things courage.

Actual Definition of Communism-
The political theory or system in which all property and wealth is owned in a classless society by all the members of a community.

I have heard many people scream and rant about "those damn commies", and others say that it was a good idea but not executed properly.

Please do not submit any rantings as it will be completely overlooked, but rather an honest answer to what it is and WHY it "didn't work out" or its "such a bad thing"?

"Muslim followers protested about cartoons of the prophet Mohammed and demanded the death of the publishers. Yet these same people see no problem when it comes to burning an effigy of the Pope - because he quoted a text that is hundreds of years old - and shooting a christian nun because of her faith.

Do these people not understand that, by retaliating to the Pope's quotes in such a way, they are only perpetuating the image that Muslim believers are violent, intolerant and a danger to anyone who dares use their right to free speech.

If it had been the other way round and Christians were burning an effigy of Mohammed and shooting Muslim leaders purely because of their faith, it would have sparked World War III."

This was a letter I read in the Bristol Metro Newspaper - what are peoples views on this? I have to say that I completely agree with everything that has been written above.

My friend bought a used truck on Saturday from a dealer. It was in fair condition, but he noticed (in front of the salesman) a small shaking in the wheel when he got over 45 mph. The salesman said probably needed an alignment. While he was signing the papers for the loan, the salesman backed the truck up to the dealership, fell out of the truck and ran the truck over the curb and into a brick wall. No great dammage. Sunday (the very next day) he and his 15 yr. old son were on the road when the rear drivers side tire lost the tred. (it was a retredded tire and not legal for a pick up) The truck skidded in front of a semi and was crushed on passinger side and totaled. Everyone was okay but my friend now has no vehicle, his trade in gone, his down payment gone, and doesn't know what to do. I told him that either the tire company, the car company, the dealership, someone should be held accountable. WHO IS RESPONSIBLE FOR THIS ? and who can I contact ?

The controversey has been that police officers should be held to the same standard as lawyers, doctors, and other professionals? In some cases law enforcement is set up like a profession, but in many ways is still considered blue collar work.

People have argued that they would prefer that police officers, those that carry the guns and "protect and serve" us should be governed by the same structure of that of lawyers, etc.

If thats the case, law enforcement would have specific education restructuring. At the very least Bachelor degrees would be required. In states like Minnesota and Wisconsin, at least an associates degree (MN) or 60 college credits are required before appyling for any position.

I just want to know what your thought is on it. I am a senior at a University and we have discussed extensively, and I want to get a wider perspective, especially since I am going into law enforcement. Please I am looking for serious answers here.

The owner of a property below our house on a valley side is to erect a fence on ground llevel with our house. This fence will be 5 - 6 ft high and borders a footpath belonging to us and our neighbours. The fence will be approximately 8 metres from our back door. The land it is to be erected on has been unused and is growing rough for the past 9 yrs plus. The fence will significantly reduce our view of the valley and detract from any future sale of the property.
Have we any rights to have the height of the fence reduced?
Or any other rights regarding this erection?

Iam not a raving conspiracy lunatic. I only know that there are lies. Where there are lies, there has to be a cover up of some kind.
Never in the HISTORY of the world has a steel framed structure collapsed due to fire. Even fires that were raging for 10 hours. And we are expected to believe, that not one, not two, but three buildings collapsed at free fall speed on the same day! Building 7 was not even hit, and had zero reason to collapse. And since so many people were recorded (including the firefighters and newpeople) saying that they heard explosions, several explosions, why werent the ruins at least investigated?? All of it was immediately carted away on a barge to China before any investigation could be done. Even for the purpose of studying it should have been investigated. every little plane crash, each shred of the plane is gathered and studied. Here we have 3 giant buildings taken down, and all the evidence is whisked away?

14 years ago I had all 4 wisdom teeth taken out. The dentist was horrible and didn't put me to sleep. I could feel everything and when I tried to push him away, he just tied my arms to the chair. One arm broke through and I was tied even tighter. I felt him take out 3 of them before he took a rest and I was able to tell him. He gave me a shot in the mouth for the 4th so I felt nothing. He didn't apologize and we didn't take any action. Earlier this week, I had a biopsy done where a wisdom tooth was as there was a hole in my bone and they found gauze from the extraction 14 years ago. What legal action can I take against this dentist?
