This is a war against humanity. A war against our way of life.

Qur'an (2:193) - "And fight them until persecution is no more, and religion be only for Allah. But if they desist, then let there be no hostility except against wrong-doers." 

Many of you know to some extent the problems that are faced in the world. Whatever news source you choose, doesn't really matter, they at least get you the correct information needed to realize some of the atrocities committed. Here is the bottom line atrocities are committed everyday. In our great country and all around the world. Things like thieving, rape and murder among COUNTLESS others that I'm not mentioning. All acts of lawlessness are disgusting and those that commit such things should be punished to the full extent of a moral law in place.

What is different about what I'll mention below is this. Most broken laws and sins are made in the shadow. In secret, behind closed doors. All made mostly with the intention that no one will find out.

Deep inside that person who just killed because of jealousy or raped because of lust. Those that stole for greed and fame and even those that are pedophiles because they just "simply can't help it" all realize one thing at the end of there day. It's wrong. They know that if Caught they will answer to a system that will convict them and punish them. Obviously they don't believe in this system, but somehow that hair brained decision to kill or rape or whatever was made and now has them in the clutches of a system that will investigate and convict. Obviously this system is not perfect. I understand that. Things happen and rules are bent. Nothing is perfect. But I've said all I said: to say that if you look at Religious Radical extremism in any religion you'll find a people that have there rules written from "divine influential power" this can be true of all religions even Christianity, look at the crusades for example. But specifically I am talking about Radical Islam. Radical Islam is nothing new to the world. September 11, 2001 was a day that shook us to the bone. We saw 2 towers fall in New York City thousands dead, thousands injured. What followed next was war. Where we learned more about our enemy. More about there convictions and more about there resolve to see manifest "the holy scriptures" of the Qur'an. 

I think from everything I've seen dating back to 9/11/01 is this. We are not fighting a political war. It is a Religious war. This War will not end for them until they've seen the fulfillment of there scriptures. They clearly disagree on all fronts with the worlds laws and systems in place. They clearly want to replace the worlds laws and systems in place with the laws and system of the Qu'ran. They have been relentless, ruthless and have shown that they are not easily clipped away like grass that has grown to long.

 The key phrase in that verse above from the Qu'ran is to fight until "religion be only for Allah."

Take a few minutes to read below some of the stories and things that have happend in 2015 already. Some of the images are GRAPHIC. But I think we need to see it. To understand it.

21 Christian men beheaded in Libya : 'A Message Signed With Blood to the Nation of the Cross'

276 mostly Christian girls captured by Boko Haram, after almost a year 219 are still missing and believed deceased:. 

148 students at a college in northeastern Kenya were pulled out of there classes and executed for being of Christian belief: Cynthia Cheroitich, 19, told The Associated Press from her hospital gurney that she hid in a large cupboard and covered herself with clothes, refusing to emerge even when some of her classmates came out of hiding at the demands of the gunmen from the al-Shabab group

Coptic Christian who confirmed this Christian girl in Syria who refused to convert to Islam and marry an Islamic man. Was stoned to death by radical Islamic extremists.

The mob of men beat 27-year-old Farkhunda before throwing her body off a roof, running over it with a car, setting it on fire and throwing it into a river near a well-known mosque. Allegations that Farkhunda, who like many Afghans has just one name, had set fire to a Qur’an. But Afghanistan’s most senior detective said no evidence had been found to support those claims.

What's the point of me saying all this? What's my feeble answer or solution to all this? The first step to a plan of action is first to be aware. I don't know what's to be done. But I know this. I love this country and it's God given rights. But can something last forever? What will life be like in 50 years?

I don't know. But in order to protect ourselves from an enemy, we must first understand our enemy. 

"If you know the enemy and know yourself you need not fear the results of a hundred battles"
