Thomas Jefferson & the Quran

There recently has been some controversy about Rep. Keith Ellison, who is a muslim, refusing to take his oath on the bible and instead opting to use a Quran. In what he thinks was a sly political move, he decides to use Thomas Jefferson's Quran. Rep. Ellison apparently is a fool because Jefferson's Quran was translated into English. If the Quran is translated into any other language, it is no longer a "holy" book. Of course if one reads the Quran, they will know there is nothing holy about it period.

You may ask, "Why did Thomas Jefferson own a Quran?" Some fools use it as apologetic towards Islam. Thomas Jefferson only purchased the Quran after reading another book that was "prejudiced" against Islam. His reading of the Quran made him realize that appeasement is never the answer. It also aided in his decisions during the Barbary Wars. Time for a history lesson kids.

Thomas Jefferson was secretary of state (1789-1793), VP (1797-1801), and President (1801-1809). He realized, even then, you cannot negotiate with terrorists.

September 11, 2001 was not America's first encounter with Islamic savages. It started in 1784 when the Barbary Pirates from Morocco captured an American ship sailing near the northern part of Africa. The ship and its contents were sold and the crew was enslaved. After paying a ransom, the crew was released and Morocco became the first nation to recognize the United States as a country and not a territory of the British.

Later in 1784, pirates based in Algeria captured two American ships. Once again, everything was sold and the crew was enslaved. The pirates wanted a ransom because the European countries paid bribes for safe passage (sound familiar?). The crews of these ships were enslaved for 11 years because we would not pay the full ransom. By 1789, 12 American ships were captured and the crews of those ships were enslaved and the kidnappings continued for several years after. These countries were part of the Ottoman Empire and also preferred the Christian hostages to do demeaning work.

The paying of ransoms led to more kidnappings. Jefferson knew this would happen, but Congress wouldn't listen. The Muslim countries harboring the pirates declared war on America when we weren't making payments as demanded. American merchants needed protection sailing near the north of Africa. George Washington finally listened to Jefferson and supported the idea of ending "tribute" payments. This led to the creation of the United States Navy in March 1794. After Jefferson's presidential inauguration, the Pasha of Tripoli wanted $225,000. Jefferson refused to pay the "tribute", Tripoli declared war on us, and in 1801 the American Navy was ready to go and the First Barbary War ensued. The United States Marine Corps acts during the wars is noted in the USMC hymn, "from the halls of Montezuma, to the shores of Tripoli".

After the war of 1812, the Barbary pirate states, thinking our military was too depleted to fight them again, decided to go after American ships. We once again paid ransom for the return of the crews until 1815, which began the Second Barbary war. This war didn't last long because some European countries become involved and finished the war.


Here are some quotes from Jefferson regarding the Barbary wars,

"I acknowledge I very early thought it would be best to effect a peace thro' the medium of war."

"it will be more easy to raise ships and men to fight these pirates into reason, than money to bribe them."

He was a man who was truly understood the kind of people we are dealing with. Apparently, democrats are not fans of American history. They have consistently urged appeasement towards our nations enemies. From Hitler, the Communists, and to the muslim savages they think negotiations is the answer.

Hurl A Rock For Peace

The following is a post from Little Green Footballs poster, Nekama. This is probably one of the best postings I have seen.

The very excellent response:

MEMO

This is an automated reply from the Bullshit Detector at Little Green Footballs.
Your recent post contained troll-like characteristics which resembles the type of message sent by spoiled ISM members on summer holiday, college students who have recently inhaled Noam Chomsky’s foul rantings, Adam Shapiro wannabes, Nazi sympathizers, or genuine Koranimals.

In order to prevent another thread being hijacked, and to send your message to the appropriate department for response (FOAD, GAZE, Go Away Gordon, or The Bus To Rachel Corrie’s Tomb Is Leaving - Be Sure You’re Under It), kindly reply to the following questions:

1. Are you aware that the Disputed Territories never belonged to the “Palestinians” and only came into Israeli possession as a result of the 1967 six day war in which Egypt, Jordan, Syria, and Lebanon all massed forces at Israel’s border in order to “push the Jews into the sea”. The Arabs lost and Israel took control of the land. Do you agree that if the Koranimals don’t want to lose territory to Israel, then they shouldn’t start wars? Do you agree that there is justice that Israel, who as far back as 1948 has always sought peace with her far larger neighbors, should live in prosperity - making the desert bloom - while the residents of 19 adjacent Arab countries who are blessed with far more land as well as oil wealth live in their own feces?

2. Did you know that the “Palestinians” could have had their own country as far back as 1948 had they accepted the UN sponsored partition plan which gave Israel AND the Palestinians a countries of their own on land which Jews had lived on for thousands of years before Mohammed ever had a wet dream about virgins? The Arabs rejected the UN offer and went to war with the infant Israeli nation. The Arabs lost and have been whining about it ever since. Do you agree this is like a murderer who kills his parents and asks for special treatment since he is now an orphan?

3. Can you tell us ANY Arab country which offers Jews the right to be citizens, vote, own property, businesses, be a part of the government or have ANY of the rights which Israeli Arabs enjoy? Any Arab country which gives those rights to Christians? How about to other Arabs? Wouldn’t you just LOVE to be a citizen of Saudi Arabia, Sudan, Iran, or Syria?

4. Since as many Jews (approximately 850,000) were kicked out of Arab countries as were Arabs who left present day Israel (despite being literally begged to stay), why should Arabs be permitted to return to Israel if Jews aren’t allowed to set foot in Arab countries? Can you explain why Arabs can worship freely in Israel but Jews would certainly be hung from street lamps after having their intestines devoured by an Arab mob if they so much as entered an Arab country?

5. Israel resettled and absorbed all of the Jews from Arab countries who wished to become Israelis. Why haven’t any Arab countries offered to resettle Arabs who were displaced from Israel, leaving them to rot for 60 years in squalid refugee camps? And why are those refugee camps still there? Could it be that the billions of dollars that the UNWRA has sent there goes to terrorist groups like Hamas, Islamic Jihad, El Aqsa Martyrs Brigade, or Hezbollah? How did Yassir Arafat achieve his $300 million in wealth? Why aren’t these funds distributed for humanitarian use?

6. Did you know that the Arabs in the disputed territories (conquered by Israel in the 1967 war which was started by Arabs) and who are not Israelis already have two countries right now? And that they are called Egypt and Jordan?

7. If your complaint is about the security fence which Israel is finally building in the Disputed Territories, are you aware that it is built solely to keep the “brave” Arab terrorists out so that they can no longer self detonate on busses, in dining halls or pizzerias and kill Jewish grandmothers and schoolchildren? Why are the Arabs so brave when they target unarmed civilians but even when they outnumber their opponents they get their sandy asses kicked all the way to Mecca when they are faced with Jewish soldiers? Why do Arab soldiers make the French look like super heroes?

8. Please explain why you are so concerned about Arabs, who possess 99% of the land in this region and are in control of the world’s greatest natural resource, which literally flows out of the ground? Can’t their brother muslims offer some of the surplus land and nature’s riches to the “Palestinians”? Or is it true that Arabs are willing to die right down to the last “Palestinian”?

9. Why do you not exhibit the same level of concern for say, people in Saudi Arabia who are beheaded, subject to amputation, stoning, honor killing etc.? What about women who are denied any semblance of basic civil rights, including the right not to be treated as property for the entertainment and abuse of her father, brothers, or husbands? What about the Muslims in Sudan and Egypt who are still enslaved, or the women there whose genitalia are barbarically cut off? How about the oppression of Shiites by Sunnis, the gassing of the Kurds by Iraq, or the massacre of “Palestinians” by Jordan (Black September)? Why doesn’t this concern you?

10. Did you ever stop to wonder how much better off everyone in the region would be if Arabs stopped trying to kill Jews and destroy Israel? What would happen if the Israelis gave up their weapons and disarmed? Would they live to see the next day? But what would happen if the Arabs completely disarmed? You know the answer: They would all be AT PEACE! And if there is no war to rile them up, the Arabs would be forced to look at their own repressive, pre-medieval societies. Why would they want to do that when there are Jews to kill?

11. Have you heard “People who define themselves primarily by what they hate, rather than who they love, are doomed to failure and misery”? Can you see the parallels to the Arabs, who are blessed with land and oil, but still gladly train their children to kill themselves in order to kill Jews? Have you heard Golda Meir’s words to the effect of “There will be peace when the Arabs love their children more than they hate ours”? Why do the Arabs hate so much?

IRAN DECLARES WAR

Well, it suprises me, yet it doesn't, that Iran has declared war on our United States. Many people thought it would be the other way around by means of a pre-emptive strike on Irans nuclear facilities. The NY Sun has the breakdown of Iranian President Ahmadinejad's letter to President George W. Bush.

President Ahmadinejad's letter to President Bush, widely interpreted as a peaceful overture, is in fact a declaration of war. The key sentence in the letter is the closing salutation. In an eight-page text of the letter being circulated by the Council on Foreign Relations, it is left untranslated and rendered as "Vasalam Ala Man Ataba'al hoda." What this means is "Peace only unto those who follow the true path."

It is a phrase with historical significance in Islam, for, according to Islamic tradition, in year six of the Hejira - the late 620s - the prophet Mohammad sent letters to the Byzantine emperor and the Sassanid emperor telling them to convert to the true faith of Islam or be conquered. The letters included the same phrase that President Ahmadinejad used to conclude his letter to Mr. Bush. For Mohammad, the letters were a prelude to a Muslim offensive, a war launched for the purpose of imposing Islamic rule over infidels.

Maybe it's time to wake up and realize that we are not fighting a War on Terrorism, we are fighting a war on Islam. I found an interesting piece by author Dan Simmons. I'm not sure about the whole time-traveler thing, but I agree with the premise of the letter.

“Let’s imagine,” said the Time Traveler, “that on December eighth, Nineteen forty-one, President Franklin Delano Roosevelt spoke before a joint session of Congress and asked them to declare war on aviation.”

“That’s absurd,” I said.

“Is it?” asked the Time Traveler. “The American battleships, cruisers, harbor installations, Army barracks, and airfields at Pearl Harbor and elsewhere in Hawaii were all struck by Japanese aircraft. Imagine if the next day Roosevelt had declared war on aviation . . . threatening to wipe it out wherever we found it. Committing all the resources of the United States of America to defeating aviation, so help us God.”

“That’s just stupid,” I said. If I’d ever been afraid of this Time Traveler, I wasn’t now. He was obviously a mental defective.“The planes, the Japanese planes,” I said, “were just a method of attack . . . a means . . . it wasn’t aviation that attacked us at Pearl Harbor, but the Empire of Japan. We declared war on Japan and a few days later its ally, Germany, lived up to its treaty with the Japanese and declared war on us. If we’d declared war on aviation, on goddamned airplanes rather than the empire and ideology that launched them, we’d never have . . .”

I stopped. What had he called it? Category Error. Making the problem unsolvable through your inability – or fear – of defining it correctly.

The time is now whether we want to accept Dhimmitude as a way of life, or stop the insanity of Islam.

Iraq Archive Document Describes Bin Laden Meeting

ISLAMO-FASCISTS GONE WILD

It is truly amazing that cartoons have turned the Muslim world upside down. The burning of embassies, the death threats against the illustrators, all nonsense. Recently, Rolling Stone magazine put that cretin Kanye West on the cover mocking Jesus. How many Christians burned the Rolling Stone offices down? None, because we are not primates.


When you see things like this, how can you not insult them.

Let's review some of the cartoons:





These were published by the Danish newspaper, Jyllands-Posten. However; another newspaper published the cartoons one month after they apeared in Denmark. They appeared in the Egyption newspaper, Al Faqr. They were published during Ramadan with nary a peep from Muslims.



The outrage was triggered by Danish Imam's trying to provoke Muslims. They took a picture of a Frenchman who was wearing a pig outfit during a pig calling contest, and using a fax machine, distorted the image and claimed it was their false prophet Mohammed. The image was so distorted that it was almost impossible to decipher what it was without knowing beforehand.

Just for fun...cartoons created in response to the Muslim outrage.





Finally, the one I created using the man in a pig outfit.



Mohammed's second wife was a 9 year old girl. Yes, in addition to being a terrorist, rapist, murderer, and theif, Mohammed was also a child molester.

A Disgusting Death Wish To A Soldier

Yes, it says "PS DIE".

Can people who do things like this be tortured enough?

Here is the info for the soldier:

Phone cards are a biggie for the soldiers. Other items needed are stamps, gloves, and stocking hats.

LA Times on Joe Wilson: Over 12 Mistakes in Just 2 Sentences

We know that the MSM repeats the mantra that those forged RatherGate memos have not been conclusively proven to be forgeries. Whatever.

Another MSM mantra is that Joseph Wilson has not been conclusively proven to be ... a speaker lacking veracity.

So comes the Los Angeles Times - testing the current record holder Washington Post (which managed 18 errors in one "RatherGate is no big deal" piece). The Times hacks and bends facts in order to keep Wilson's flawed and discredited story alive - all, no doubt, due to "space constraints." (Yeah, right.) But the Times's efforts result in over a dozen errors in but two sentences:

Bush Stagnated My Air

My radio alarm clock woke me this afternoon with the horrifying news that an “Air Stagnation Warning” would be in effect for the Greater Seattle Area throughout the entire holiday weekend.

Good Goddess! What terrible new ecological nightmare has Bush sprung on us now? Arsenic in the drinking water, global warming, hurricanes, tornadoes, tsunamis, and now “Air Stagnation?”

IDIOTS MAKING THE NEWS

Cindy Sheehan

So good ol' Cindy Sheehan is going to chain herself to the fence in front of the White House until all the troops come home. The woman is absolutely brilliant. In fact, one would hope that a significant portion of that chain is around the head and neck area. When will the time come that she learns that she is insignificant? No one, except the liberal media is paying attention to her anymore. Her novelty has worn off. After it was clear that she was fighting not for her son, but for publicity, she became a circus monkey. On top of that, she committed a cardinal sin. She publicly criticized a Clinton, Hillary Clinton. Hell hath no fury like Hillary scorned. I anticipate Cindy will be silenced in the near future because of it.

Al Franken

Ah, one of the voices of Air America. Yes, the broke, incompetent, barely measureable listenership radio broadcast network. I don't know how the United States made it without this pathetic attempt of spreading liberal hate. Al has a new book out now so he's making his TV talk show rounds. He feels that saying things like, “And so basically, what it looks like is going to happen is that Libby and Karl Rove are going to be executed." and then refers to executing the President because Rove is his advisor is appropriate. He believes in his little mind that the whole Valerie Plame thing is treason. How do you "out" a "covert" CIA operative when they can be seen coming and going from CIA headquarters? She was even listed in a Who's Who book as the wife of Joe Wilson.

Howard Dean

Dean was recently quoted as calling Republicans "ayatollah's". This is along with all the other stupid things he says on a regular basis.

I think it's safe to say that these people have lost their minds and are extremely desperate. People are tired of the same garbage that comes from their mouths. The only people that care what they have to say is the liberal media.

One Of the Finest Dissertations and Final Exams in EIB History

One Of the Finest Dissertations and Final Exams in EIB History

September 30, 2005

BEGIN TRANSCRIPT
RUSH: Eric in Charlotte, North Carolina, welcome, sir. Nice to have you on the program.

CALLER: Oh, Rush, you're going to have to carry me through. This is too important and juicy to let this be short but, you know, I'm a black American and I am deeply, deeply saddened and troubled regarding the level of propaganda and deceit that's been thrown at black Americans to keep them on the democratic plantation, and especially through the comments of the likes of Charles Rangel, but before I go into that, I wanted to say something. A few years ago, you were trying to look for the definition of liberalism, and my definition of liberalism is that it's a form of spontaneous, triggered, mental illness. It's a form of mental illness, Rush, and it's expressed through their moral immaturity, their deceit and actually it's a type of rebellion against God and virtue through the justification of things like immorality, things like abortion, homosexuality, promiscuity, prostitution, racism, even race-centered thinking, and, you know, the suppression --

RUSH: I tell you what. Hey, Eric? You're on a roll here and I hate to stop you.

CALLER: Yeah.

RUSH: But I have to. So if you just hold your thought there, we'll take a break and come back and let your dissertation, your oral final exam at the Limbaugh Institute for Advanced Conservative Studies go forward unimpeded.

BREAK TRANSCRIPT

RUSH: Back now to Eric in Charlotte, North Carolina. You were on a roll. Let me set it up for people just joining us. You think liberalism -- and you're an African-American, right?

CALLER: I'm a black American. African-American is a misnomer no more than just calling white folks European Americans. If you're an American, you're an American. I'm just darker skinned, Rush.

RUSH: Amen. All right, folks. So liberalism is a mental illness. It's born of people that do not like any judgmentallism against their depravity--

CALLER: Exactly. Well, Rush, that's exactly the reason why they're coming against you there on CBS the way they do. Because you take a verbal stance for morality and virtue and so on, they have to make you look evil. It's a form of mental illness. It's spontaneous. It's triggered. These people are normal in every way when you talk to them, but when you get on their little lightning button, I'll just call it, that's when they actually take on a form of incognition. They become crazy. It's a form of mental illness but it's just spontaneous, short-lived and triggered and then they're back to normal. So I hate to say that about them, but that's what liberalism is. Rush, thanks to you, I had a radio program. It was called the Eric Woods program down here in Charlotte on 1110 WBT. Thanks to you I was the last black man to do a radio show there, but it's because of you I can smell liberals from 10 miles away. I know these people. They are messed up mentally, emotionally, because of the fact they have to justify immorality. It's a form of rebellion against God, and so because they're rebelling against God, that's why they have to justify things like evolution, because if man came from slime, then they can say they're not accountable to God. So they have to get rid of God, and when you get rid of God, you elevate abortion, homosexuality, pornography, racism. Black Americans are a little different. They're more race-centered, which is a form of liberalism. They don't care much about abortion. As a matter of fact, they don't like abortion and homosexuality by and large, but the thing is, you can be liberal on one issue and conservative on another issue and that's what's going on with black Americans. But this is what prompted my call, Rush. Charles Rangel, the statements that he made last week, you need to play that every single day for a full month. I would love for you to dedicate a program with just black conservatives calling in to vent and express to black people, "Look, get off of this plantation that the Democrats have formed for us to stay on, to live on." They entrap us through deceit by trying to make Republicans look like Republicans are racist and evil. They have to do that, and so you have the likes of Tavis Smiley, Tom Joiner, BET television, Ebony magazine, Julianne Malvo, you go on down the list, but they have to keep blacks on the plantation by making Republicans seem like they're all racist. Now, Charles Rangel, for him to compare Bush to Bull Conner, a Democrat racist down in the south, it is so twisted and evil, you need to -

RUSH: Hey, you know what? It's not just Bull Conner. George Wallace was a Democrat. Lester Maddox was a Democrat. All of the southern senators that opposed the civil rights act of '64; Jay William Fulbright, they're all Democratic.

CALLER: Well, the good thing about George Wallace was guess what stopped making him a racist? Religion. God. He embraced black people but it was because of God, which is where the liberals are trying to expunge God out of schools and society. They're trying to suppress God and religion. This is why they want to keep church and state as separate as they can, because if they can keep God out of the public square, out of kids' minds, it allows these kids to maintain their immoral lifestyles or to live an immoral lifestyle. But for Charles Rangel to do this, every single day I would love for you to play this, because the media will not play this man's tape or his statement. But what he's done is demonstrating clearly, he's demonstrating in the clearest way why blacks need to leave the Democratic Party, because here's Bush, a man who has elevated not one, but two blacks to the highest level in the cabinet: secretarys of state, and they're calling this man Bull Conner, a racist. Charles Rangel is doing this because he wants blacks to keep on the plantation. I call it the slave/slavemaster/slave liberator mentality. In order for that slavemaster to keep the slave on the plantation, he had to tell them that the north, the people who were coming down to free them. I don't want to get into that too much but they were saying that the liberators were coming down to kill you and to take you away from your kids. You have to deceive black people to keep them on the plantation. There's another word I call it. I call it, "the pimp, the prostitute and the preacher syndrome." That pimp has to keep the prostitute in his harem by lies. If he can do that, if he can keep that prostitute away from the preacher, he's going to favor, because once she starts going around this preacher, she'll stop being a prostitute -- and that pimp is going to lose money. He's going to lose business. He's not going to have his cash cow. The Democrat Party uses blacks as the cash cow to keep them in their harem through deceit.

RUSH: Hey, Eric, can you think of a modern relationship to this? The pimp, the prostitute and the preacher? Can you give us some current names that you might say fit those roles?

CALLER: Well, clearly Jesse Jackson, Tavis Smiley, Tom Joiner, Charles Rangel, all of the democratic delegation up there in Congress, all of them are the pimps. Now, it includes white pimps as well. You of course have had the Ted Kennedys, and you go on down the list of all of those senators but, you know, they're all pimps. Anybody who's in the leadership position in the Democratic Party, they are the pimps because they try to keep blacks deceived.

RUSH: Okay. So, if those are the pimps, who are the prostitutes?

CALLER: Blacks are likened to the prostitutes. It's a tough word to use but I'm not saying that we're prostitutes.

RUSH: No, but I think I know what you mean. They're the victims.

CALLER: The victims of the Democrats.

RUSH: They're the ones that are propping up the pimps financially and with power and with other things.

CALLER: They are the ones -- the black people, we're innocent. The word I preferred to use earlier was, of course, "the slave and the plantation."

RUSH: Okay. So you got the slave and you've got the pimp and the preacher. Let's get rid of prostitute. Okay. So we've got slave, we've got pimp and we've got preacher. Who are the preachers today?

CALLER: The preachers are the Republican Party trying to tell the truth. The people within the Republican Party and independent. By the way, I am an independent, I'm not actually registered as a Republican. You know, I'm independent because of the fact that once you're a black Republican, you're considered Satan and all of that, and it's easier for me to talk as an independent, and instead of me calling myself a Republican, and they immediately raise up a cross trying to look at me as a vampire and all of that, but the point is, the Republican Party, by and large, and those on the religious right, those are the preachers and the liberators trying to tell the truth about what the democratic leadership, the Democrats are doing to black people. It's an amazing thing when you really look at it, but they're all mentally ill. It's a mental sickness. The Bible actually calls them fools because they're rebelling against virtue and God. Now, I'm not calling them fools. I'm just saying the Bible calls them fools. That's what they are.

RUSH: Don't hold back there, Eric. I mean, if the Bible can call them fools, you can echo the Bible.

CALLER: That's right. I'm calling them fools through the Bible, but people will say you can't call someone a fool but they don't understand what the Bible says.

RUSH: Well, who says? You know, that's another thing. Everybody is caught up in who can say what somebody else can and can't say? Screw that. To hell with this political correctness. You say what you want to say on this program. I'm not going to sit here and tell you, "You can't say it." You might be wrong, you might be right, but you can say it.

CINDY SHEEHAN IS ARRESTED

Sheehan Arrested During Anti-War Protest

WASHINGTON (AP) - Cindy Sheehan, the California woman who has used her son's death in Iraq to spur the anti-war movement, was arrested Monday while protesting outside the White House.

Sheehan and several dozen other protesters sat down on the sidewalk after marching along the pedestrian walkway on Pennsylvania Avenue. Police warned them three times that they were breaking the law by failing to move along, then began making arrests.

Sheehan was the first taken into custody. She stood up and was led to a police vehicle while protesters chanted, “The whole world is watching.”

"I would like to say to Cindy Sheehan and her supporters don't be a group of unthinking lemmings. It's not pretty," said Mitzy Kenny of Ridgeley, W.Va., whose husband died in Iraq last year. The anti-war demonstrations "can affect the war in a really negative way. It gives the enemy hope."

THE CLINTON LEGACY PART I

THE CLINTON LEGACY, PART I
TERRORISM

Former President, William Jefferson Clinton, incurred the most terrorist attacks on this country and overseas installations in history. His inaction against these attacks gave comfort to our enemies that the United States did not have the resolve to wage a war on terror. This lack of action led to the September 11th attacks in 2001. Let us rewind and review the terrorist attacks during the Clinton Administration.

1993- World Trade Center, New York City, New York
Six people killed, 1000 injured

1995- Alfred P. Murrah Federal Building, Oklahoma City, Oklahoma
168 people killed, including 19 children, 800+ injured

1996- Khobar Towers military barracks, Dhahran, Saudi Arabia
19 American soldiers killed, 327 injured

1998- U.S. Embassies, Nairobi, Kenya & Dar es Salaam, Tanzania
213 people killed, including 12 Americans, 4000 injured

2000- U.S.S. Cole, Docked at Aden, Yemen
17 Sailors killed, 39 injured

With the exception of the U.S. Embassy bombings, the only retaliation was to threaten the conspirators with jail. Some conspirators were arrested. After the Embassy bombings, Clinton ordered cruise missile attacks on an aspirin factory in Sudan and at a camel in Afghanistan. I am sure Usama Bin Laden was quivering with fear at Clinton. Yes, the 1993 World Trade Center attack was launched soon after Clinton took the oath of office. However, he did nothing to retaliate.

Why were there so many terrorist attacks? Well, the Clinton administration opted to fight terrorism as a law enforcement activity rather than wage a war on terror. Here is the problem fighting terrorism with law enforcement. When a federal prosecutor gathers enough evidence to indict a terrorist, the case is then bound over to a grand jury. All the evidence in the case is now confidential. Any information obtained in the case cannot be shared with other agencies (CIA, National Security, FBI, or the Department of Defense).

Now we come to Able Danger. Wikipedia-online encyclopedia gives an accurate description of Able Danger:

Able Danger was a small, highly-classified U.S. Army intelligence program under the command of the U.S. Army Special Operations Command (USASOC). It was created as a result of a directive in early October 1999 by the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, Hugh Shelton, to USASOC to develop a campaign plan against transnational terrorism, "specifically al-Qaida." According to claims made by Lt. Col. Anthony Shaffer and confirmed by four others, Able Danger had identified the 9/11 attack leader, Mohamed Atta, and three other 9/11 hijackers as possible members of an al Qaeda cell operating in the United States by mid-2000, more than a year before the attack. The claim appears to contradict the official conclusion of the 9/11 Commission that American intelligence agencies had not identified Atta as a terrorist prior to the attack. This has resulted in a political controversy centered on Rep. Curt Weldon (R-PA) who has enthusiastically backed the claims.

Jamie Gorelick was the Deputy Attorney General in the U.S. Department of Justice during the Clinton administration. She was identified by former Attorney General John Ashcroft as constructing a wall that prevented government agencies from sharing information with each other.

"In 1995, the Justice Department embraced flawed legal reasoning, imposing a series of restrictions on the FBI that went beyond what the law required," he said. "The 1995 Guidelines and the procedures developed around them imposed draconian barriers to communications between the law enforcement and intelligence communities. The wall left intelligence agents afraid to talk with criminal prosecutors or agents. In 1995, the Justice Department designed a system destined to fail."

"Somebody built this wall.” Ashcroft added: "The basic architecture for the wall . . . was contained in a classified memorandum entitled 'Instructions on Separation of Certain Foreign Counterintelligence and Criminal Investigations. Full disclosure compels me to inform you that its author is a member of this Commission."

Gorelick also made the decision to not investigate 9/11 attack ringleader Mohamed Atta. Gorelick believed that since Atta had a green card, he was a U.S. citizen. Last I knew, a green card was not the same as citizenship, it is simply a visitor pass.

In 1995, Gorelick wrote:

“During the course of those investigations, significant counterintelligence information has been developed related to the activities and plans of agents of foreign powers operating in this country and overseas, including previously unknown connections between separate terrorist groups." We believe that it is prudent to establish a set of instructions that will clearly separate the counterintelligence investigation from the more limited, but continued, criminal investigations. These procedures, which go beyond what is legally required, will prevent any risk of creating an unwarranted appearance that FISA (Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act) is being used to avoid procedural safeguards which would apply in a criminal investigation."

Ms. Gorelick was also appointed by Democrat Senator Tom Daschle to sit on the 9/11 commission panel. There is no doubt this was a significant conflict of interest.

During the 9/11 commission hearings, Clinton’s former National Security advisor, Sandy Berger was accused of stealing highly classified terrorism documents from the national archives. What was he stealing? The Able Danger papers along with other sensitive information. Clinton was determined not to let terrorism hinder him from being a legend in his own mind.

Clinton did everything he could to avoid using our military to defend this country. He was in constant contact with advisor Dick Morris. After every attack, Dick Morris would have to poll the public in order for Clinton to make a decision. Instead of working the Pentagon in designing a war plan against terrorism, Clinton was worried how people felt about him. Of course, that is the Clinton legacy, “It’s all about me.”

Now let us fast forward. Recently, Mr. Clinton publicly criticized President Bush about many things, including the war in Iraq. This is where the discussion will begin.

The following is a list of quotes from Mr. Clinton as well as other democrats regarding Iraq;

"One way or the other, we are determined to deny Iraq the capacity to develop weapons of mass destruction and the missiles to deliver them. That is our bottom line." --President Bill Clinton, Feb. 4, 1998

"If Saddam rejects peace and we have to use force, our purpose is clear. We want to seriously diminish the threat posed by Iraq's weapons of mass destruction program." --President Bill Clinton, Feb. 17, 1998

"Iraq is a long way from [here], but what happens there matters a great deal here. For the risks that the leaders of a rogue state will use nuclear, chemical or biological weapons against us or our allies is the greatest security threat we face." --Madeline Albright, Feb 18, 1998

"He will use those weapons of mass destruction again, as he has ten times since 1983." --Sandy Berger, Clinton National Security Adviser, Feb, 18, 1998

"[W]e urge you, after consulting with Congress, and consistent with the U.S. Constitution and laws, to take necessary actions (including, if appropriate, air and missile strikes on suspect Iraqi sites) to respond effectively to the threat posed by Iraq's refusal to end its weapons of mass destruction programs." Letter to President Clinton, signed by: -- Democratic Senators Carl Levin, Tom Daschle, John Kerry, and others, Oct. 9, 1998

"Saddam Hussein has been engaged in the development of weapons of mass destruction technology which is a threat to countries in the region and he has made a mockery of the weapons inspection process." -Rep. Nancy Pelosi (D, CA), Dec. 16, 1998

"Hussein has ... chosen to spend his money on building weapons of mass destruction and palaces for his cronies." -- Madeline Albright, Clinton Secretary of State, Nov. 10, 1999

"There is no doubt that ... Saddam Hussein has reinvigorated his weapons programs. Reports indicate that biological, chemical and nuclear programs continue apace and may be back to pre-Gulf War status. In addition, Saddam continues to redefine delivery systems and is doubtless using the cover of a licit missile program to develop longer-range missiles that will threaten the United States and our allies." Letter to President Bush, Signed by: -- Sen. Bob Graham (D, FL), and others, Dec 5, 2001

"We begin with the common belief that Saddam Hussein is a tyrant and a threat to the peace and stability of the region. He has ignored the mandate of the United Nations and is building weapons of mass destruction and th! e means of delivering them." -- Sen. Carl Levin (D, MI), Sept. 19, 2002

"We know that he has stored secret supplies of biological and chemical weapons throughout his country." -- Al Gore, Sept. 23, 2002

"Iraq's search for weapons of mass destruction has proven impossible to deter and we should assume that it will continue for as long as Saddam is in power." -- Al Gore, Sept. 23, 2002

"We have known for many years that Saddam Hussein is seeking and developing weapons of mass destruction." -- Sen. Ted Kennedy (D, MA), Sept. 27, 2002

"The last UN weapons inspectors left Iraq in October of 1998. We are confident that Saddam Hussein retains some stockpiles of chemical and biological weapons, and that he has since embarked on a crash course to build up his chemical and biological warfare capabilities. Intelligence reports indicate that he is seeking nuclear weapons..." -- Sen. Robert Byrd (D, WV), Oct. 3, 2002

"I will be voting to give the President of the United States the authority to use force -- if necessary -- to disarm Saddam Hussein because I believe that a deadly arsenal of weapons of mass destruction in his hands is a real and grave threat to our security." -- Sen. John F. Kerry (D, MA), Oct. 9, 2002

"There is unmistakable evidence that Saddam Hussein is working aggressively to develop nuclear weapons and will likely have nuclear weapons within the next five years ... We also should remember we have always underestimated the progress Saddam has made in development of weapons of mass destruction." -- Sen. Jay Rockefeller (D, WV), Oct 10, 2002

"He has systematically violated, over the course of the past 11 years, every significant UN resolution that has demanded that he disarm and destroy his chemical and biological weapons, and any nuclear capacity. This he has refused to do" -- Rep. Henry Waxman (D, CA), Oct. 10, 2002

"In the four years since the inspectors left, intelligence reports show that Saddam Hussein has worked to rebuild his chemical and biological weapons stock, his missile delivery capability, and his nuclear program. He has also given aid, comfort, and sanctuary to terrorists, including al Qaeda members ... It is clear, however, that if left unchecked, Saddam Hussein will continue to increase his capacity to wage biological and chemical warfare, and will keep trying to develop nuclear weapons." -- Sen. Hillary Clinton (D, NY), Oct 10, 2002

"We are in possession of what I think to be compelling evidence that Saddam Hussein has, and has had for a number of years, a developing capacity for the production and storage of weapons of mass destruction." -- Sen. Bob Graham (D, FL), Dec. 8, 2002

"Without question, we need to disarm Saddam Hussein. He is a brutal, murderous dictator, leading an oppressive regime ... He presents a particularly grievous threat because he is so consistently prone to miscalculation ... And now he is miscalculating America's response to his continued deceit and his consistent grasp for weapons of mass destruction ... So the threat of Saddam Hussein with weapons of mass destruction is real..." -- Sen. John F. Kerry (D, MA), Jan. 23. 2003

This is probably the first you have heard of the banging of the war drums by these democrats.

There is also some reluctance to believe that Iraq had ties to terrorism. These people are wrong. Iraq did have ties to terrorism. Saddam Hussein paid the families of Palestinian suicide bombers. The Washington Times reported the Clinton administration linked al-Qaeda and Iraq.

The 1998 indictment said: "Al Qaeda also forged alliances with the National Islamic Front in the Sudan and with the government of Iran and its associated terrorist group Hezbollah for the purpose of working together against their perceived common enemies in the West, particularly the United States. In addition, al Qaeda reached an understanding with the government of Iraq that al Qaeda would not work against that government and that on particular projects, specifically including weapons development, al Qaeda would work cooperatively with the government of Iraq."

From the Washington Institute of Near East Policy:

In August 2001, leaders of several Kurdish Islamist factions reportedly visited the al-Qaeda leadership in Afghanistan with the goal of creating an alternate base for the organization in northern Iraq. Their intentions were echoed in a document found in an al-Qaeda guest house in Afghanistan vowing to "expel those Jews and Christians from Kurdistan and join the way of Jihad, [and] rule every piece of land . . . with the Islamic Shari'a rule." Soon thereafter, Ansar al-Islam was created using $300,000 to $600,000 in al-Qaeda seed money, in addition to funds from Saudi Arabia.

Quotes from Hillary Clinton’s floor speech, October 10, 2002

In the four years since the inspectors left, intelligence reports show that Saddam Hussein has worked to rebuild his chemical and biological weapons stock, his missile delivery capability, and his nuclear program. He has also given aid, comfort, and sanctuary to terrorists, including Al Qaeda members, though there is apparently no evidence of his involvement in the terrible events of September 11, 2001.

It is clear, however, that if left unchecked, Saddam Hussein will continue to increase his capacity to wage biological and chemical warfare, and will keep trying to develop nuclear weapons. Should he succeed in that endeavor, he could alter the political and security landscape of the Middle East, which as we know all too well affects American security.

Finally, government reports and congressional testimony to news accounts from major newspapers.

*Abdul Rahman Yasin was the only member of the al Qaeda cell that detonated the 1993 World Trade Center bomb to remain at large in the Clinton years. He fled to Iraq. U.S. forces recently discovered a cache of documents in Tikrit, Saddam's hometown, that show that Iraq gave Mr. Yasin both a house and monthly salary.

* Bin Laden met at least eight times with officers of Iraq's Special Security Organization, a secret police agency run by Saddam's son Qusay, and met with officials from Saddam's mukhabarat, its external intelligence service, according to intelligence made public by Secretary of State Colin Powell, who was speaking before the United Nations Security Council on February 6, 2003.

* Sudanese intelligence officials told me that their agents had observed meetings between Iraqi intelligence agents and bin Laden starting in 1994, when bin Laden lived in Khartoum.

* Bin Laden met the director of the Iraqi mukhabarat in 1996 in Khartoum, according to Mr. Powell.

* An al Qaeda operative now held by the U.S. confessed that in the mid-1990s, bin Laden had forged an agreement with Saddam's men to cease all terrorist activities against the Iraqi dictator, Mr. Powell told the United Nations.

* In 1999 the Guardian, a British newspaper, reported that Farouk Hijazi, a senior officer in Iraq's mukhabarat, had journeyed deep into the icy mountains near Kandahar, Afghanistan, in December 1998 to meet with al Qaeda men. Mr. Hijazi is "thought to have offered bin Laden asylum in Iraq," the Guardian reported.

* In October 2000, another Iraqi intelligence operative, Salah Suleiman, was arrested near the Afghan border by Pakistani authorities, according to Jane's Foreign Report, a respected international newsletter. Jane's reported that Suleiman was shuttling between Iraqi intelligence and Ayman al Zawahiri, now al Qaeda's No. 2 man.

* As recently as 2001, Iraq's embassy in Pakistan was used as a "liaison" between the Iraqi dictator and al Qaeda, Mr. Powell told the United Nations.

* Spanish investigators have uncovered documents seized from Yusuf Galan -- who is charged by a Spanish court with being "directly involved with the preparation and planning" of the Sept. 11 attacks -- that show the terrorist was invited to a party at the Iraqi embassy in Madrid. The invitation used his "al Qaeda nom de guerre," London's Independent reports.

* An Iraqi defector to Turkey, known by his cover name as "Abu Mohammed," told Gwynne Roberts of the Sunday Times of London that he saw bin Laden's fighters in camps in Iraq in 1997. At the time, Mohammed was a colonel in Saddam's Fedayeen. He described an encounter at Salman Pak, the training facility southeast of Baghdad. At that vast compound run by Iraqi intelligence, Muslim militants trained to hijack planes with knives -- on a full-size Boeing 707. Col. Mohammed recalls his first visit to Salman Pak this way: "We were met by Colonel Jamil Kamil, the camp manager, and Major Ali Hawas. I noticed that a lot of people were queuing for food. (The major) said to me: 'You'll have nothing to do with these people. They are Osama bin Laden's group and the PKK and Mojahedin-e Khalq.'"

* In 1998, Abbas al-Janabi, a longtime aide to Saddam's son Uday, defected to the West. At the time, he repeatedly told reporters that there was a direct connection between Iraq and al Qaeda.

*The Sunday Times found a Saddam loyalist in a Kurdish prison who claims to have been Dr. Zawahiri's bodyguard during his 1992 visit with Saddam in Baghdad. Dr. Zawahiri was a close associate of bin Laden at the time and was present at the founding of al Qaeda in 1989.

* Following the defeat of the Taliban, almost two dozen bin Laden associates "converged on Baghdad and established a base of operations there," Mr. Powell told the United Nations in February 2003. From their Baghdad base, the secretary said, they supervised the movement of men, materiel and money for al Qaeda's global network.

* In 2001, an al Qaeda member "bragged that the situation in Iraq was 'good,'" according to intelligence made public by Mr. Powell.

* That same year, Saudi Arabian border guards arrested two al Qaeda members entering the kingdom from Iraq.

* Abu Musaab al-Zarqawi oversaw an al Qaeda training camp in Afghanistan, Mr. Powell told the United Nations. His specialty was poisons. Wounded in fighting with U.S. forces, he sought medical treatment in Baghdad in May 2002. When Zarqawi recovered, he restarted a training camp in northern Iraq. Zarqawi's Iraq cell was later tied to the October 2002 murder of Lawrence Foley, an official of the U.S. Agency for International Development, in Amman, Jordan. The captured assassin confessed that he received orders and funds from Zarqawi's cell in Iraq, Mr. Powell said. His accomplice escaped to Iraq.

*Zarqawi met with military chief of al Qaeda, Mohammed Ibrahim Makwai (aka Saif al-Adel) in Iran in February 2003, according to intelligence sources cited by the Washington Post.

* Mohammad Atef, the head of al Qaeda's military wing until the U.S. killed him in Afghanistan in November 2001, told a senior al Qaeda member now in U.S. custody that the terror network needed labs outside of Afghanistan to manufacture chemical weapons, Mr. Powell said. "Where did they go, where did they look?" said the secretary. "They went to Iraq."

* Abu Abdullah al-Iraqi was sent to Iraq by bin Laden to purchase poison gases several times between 1997 and 2000. He called his relationship with Saddam's regime "successful," Mr. Powell told the United Nations.

* Mohamed Mansour Shahab, a smuggler hired by Iraq to transport weapons to bin Laden in Afghanistan, was arrested by anti-Hussein Kurdish forces in May, 2000. He later told his story to American intelligence and a reporter for the New Yorker magazine.

* Documents found among the debris of the Iraqi Intelligence Center show that Baghdad funded the Allied Democratic Forces, a Ugandan terror group led by an Islamist cleric linked to bin Laden. According to a London's Daily Telegraph, the organization offered to recruit "youth to train for the jihad" at a "headquarters for international holy warrior network" to be established in Baghdad.

* Mullah Melan Krekar, ran a terror group (the Ansar al-Islam) linked to both bin Laden and Saddam Hussein. Mr. Krekar admitted to a Kurdish newspaper that he met bin Laden in Afghanistan and other senior al Qaeda officials. His acknowledged meetings with bin Laden go back to 1988. When he organized Ansar al Islam in 2001 to conduct suicide attacks on Americans, "three bin Laden operatives showed up with a gift of $300,000 'to undertake jihad,'" Newsday reported. Mr. Krekar is now in custody in the Netherlands. His group operated in portion of northern Iraq loyal to Saddam Hussein -- and attacked independent Kurdish groups hostile to Saddam. A spokesman for the Patriotic Union of Kurdistan told a United Press International correspondent that Mr. Krekar's group was funded by "Saddam Hussein's regime in Baghdad."

* After October 2001, hundreds of al Qaeda fighters are believed to have holed up in the Ansar al-Islam's strongholds inside northern Iraq.

I hope that after reading all the above, you will have a new mindset regarding the failures of former president Bill Clinton and the democrats, and an understanding of the complexities and work involved in waging a war on terror.

FORMER PRESIDENT BILLY JEFF CLINTON

I was perfectly content in letting Mr. Clinton fade away in the past and not mention how ineffective he was during his presidency. But Mr. Clinton decided he wasn't ready to disappear without a fight so he publicly criticizes our current president, George W. Bush. Needless to say this didn't sit well with me. It has been requested of me to list Clinton's failures during his presidency.

In the upcoming days, and probably weeks, I will be writing a series about Mr. Clinton. I have no idea how long the total "essay" will be, but it will be factual. I was hesitant about writing this, not because there is nothing to write about, but because it will be extremely lengthily and never end. An example of how it will never end is "Able Danger" which was made public a few weeks ago (5 years after Clinton left office). Thus it will be the first in my series since the information will be readily available.
