"Bueller? Bueller?": The Clarion Call to Get Out of the Muslim World
Recent Iraqis polls show they don't want us there. In fact, according to a poll done by the University of Maryland's Program on International Policy Attitudes, they want us out ASAP.
My sentiments exactly. They're not worth one more dead American kid serving his country, not one more seriously wounded soldier who will live out his or her days maimed or wheelchair bound trying to help a backward Islamic country climb out of its medieval world and its mindless, angry savagery so it can become part of the modern Western world, a world it doesn't want to have anything to do with in the first place.
And that's all well and good. Our position as members of the "Church of the Politically Incorrect" should be that there is nothing wrong with leaving the job unfinished. Fagedabou nation building. It can't be done in Iraq if you're trying to create one that embraces democracy and the freedoms we in the West have grown accustomed to. Unless religion takes a back seat in Iraq-- or any Muslim country for that matter-- democracy and the freedoms we take for granted will never see the light of day there. To try to insure that it does by putting our young men and women at risk is not the answer. And, until the mullahs lose their influence, those countries will forever be against the West and especially America.
Are you suggesting, Father Al, that we leave them to their own devices?
Damn right. And no more help in any shape or form from Uncle Sam. Why? Because America comes first.
Well, you might ask again, won't that cause bigger problems for us down the road?
It will if we are not vigilant and our will is weak.
First off, in my vision of the "New World Order", no American soldier will ever set foot on "new enemy" soil again. Now, a "new enemy" is defined as any dictatorship that isn't grandfathered in to the UN like China, or any country that still isn't a democracy or one that limits basic human freedoms for men and women. That basically includes the known Muslim world.
But, my vision for a "New World Order" doesn't mean we will be turning our backs on our enemies. In fact, with the technology we have at our disposal, we will be watching them ever closer. And, if we find they are endangering America by their politics, we will be proactive in stopping them. Negotiation and reasoning with them will be a thing of the past.
"What do you mean by that, Father Al?"
Simply this: The "new enemy" will not have access to nuclear power or weapons, nor will they have access to America. I wish I could speak for the West, but Europe, for instance, is already overrun by Muslims and it will be much harder for them to remain safe, much less rid them of the "menace from within."
"Whoe," I can hear the politically correct scream, "that's pretty harsh treatment for a billion or more people!"
What's so harsh? America won't interfere with their lives any more. They can go on living as they choose. But because of their threats against the West, we won't allow them into our country nor will we allow them access to nuclear weapons and power. In essence, if you don't mess with us, we won't mess with them. But, if you choose to develop nuclear energy (I won't differentiate between safe and not-so-safe), we will destroy those sites from the air and take out electrical power plants that feed those systems. Basically, it will drive them back to the first half of the 20th Century. And, if after struggling out of the sand a generation later and they still persist in developing technology that can be used against us, we will strike again, sending them right back to where they started. This could go on for ever and ever. I don't care.
Now, please note, I am not suggesting we bomb innocent women and children. The targets are military and electrical power plants. Without electricty, they won't be able to build their weapons of mass destruction. Without electricity they can't mount a modern army-- and don't worry, they won't have one American kid to shoot at anyway because we are no longer sending in troops to build nations or to back up our air strikes. Hopefully living in such a post-electrical society will cause the people there to want to free themselves of the shackles of their anti-Western ideas. I think, however, that by taking the Western gift of electricity away from them will only make the mullahs happier. Without electricity their people won't be tempted to watch our God forsaken movies and TV shows or be exposed to those godless ideas of democracy and freedom to live as you want to. Think of it as laissez-faire with a stick. Who knows, maybe this approach will ultimately create a revolution from within that will overthrow those old religious farts and their constipated notions because, if nothing else, it will create a longing for the old wanton days of air-conditioning and rock and roll.
What? No chuckles from the congregation? Brothers and Sisters, as I look out over you today, I can tell you are a little taken back by it all. You didn't think our Church was really that politically incorrect. Well, guess what, we are. Remember, what you heard today may sound pretty out there. But when the next 9/11 comes, it will look like the voice of reason.
Speaking of the voice of reason, let me bring your attention to a new device I will be implementing at church and on our website. I call it the "Church of the Politically Incorrect Early Warning System". Instead of a clarion call that sounds like an air-raid siren, that gets you jumping up from your church pew, listen and watch for this:
(Turn on tape-- make sure it is REALLY LOUD)
"BUELLER? BUELLER?"
Does anyone recognize it? That's right, it's Ben Stein from "Ferris Bueller's Day Off". Ben Stein is one of the great living Americans with some great uncommon common sense ideas about how to live in this modern world. A true patriot if there ever was one. I'm going to use his famous delivery of that line as a clarion call to all members of the Church of the Politically Incorrect. When you hear it, listen up. When you see it, read and heed it. The first warning is:
(Turn on tape)
"BUELLER? BUELLER?"
61% of the Iraqis approve of attacks against U.S. troops. Slightly more than that want us out within a year.
I say, tomorrow isn't soon enough.
Amen.
