Christian Minorities Persecuted in Iraq

A recent United Nations report states that religious minorities in Iraq "have become the regular victims of discrimination, harassment, and at times, persecution, with incidents ranging from intimidation to murder," and that "members of the Christian minority appear to be particularly targeted."

Again, the CPI has to ask, "Are these intolerant, hate-filled Muslims who don't give a damn about democracy, equal rights for all men and women, or the freedom to believe what you want, worth another young American soldiers death?" We think not. Let's get out of there as soon as possible and install the Church's policy of laissez-faire with a big stick.

The Left-Wing: A Bastion for Anti-Semitism?

According to Victor Davis Hanson, a classicist and historian at the Hoover Institution, Stanford University, "for many in Europe and the United States, supporting Israel, or even its allies in the West, has become viewed as both dangerous and costly."

He goes on to write, "We're accustomed to associating hatred of Jews with the ridiculed Neanderthal Right of those in sheets and jackboots. But this new venom, at least in its Western form, is mostly a left-wing, and often an academic, enterprise. It's also far more insidious, given the left's moral pretensions and its influence in the prestigious media and universities.

"Renewed hatred of Jews in the Middle East-- and indifference to it in the West-- is a sort of 'post anti-Semitism.' Islamic zealots supply the old venomous hatred, while affluent, timid Westerners provide the new necessary indifference...

"The dangers of this post anti-Semitism is that...ever so insidiously, radical Islam's hatred of Jews is becoming normalized.

"The result is that the world's politicians and the media are talking seriously with those who not merely want back the West Bank, but rather want an end to Israel altogether and everyone inside it."

It's High Noon for the U.S.

The parallels between that great 1952 Gary Cooper film and what our country is experiencing on the world stage are strikingly similar. Cooper's character must face down killers alone. No one in the town will help him-- including his deputy. He could take the easy road right out of town but he won't shrink from duty. So, he stands and faces evil down alone in the middle of the street.

Now think of the saloon as the United Nations and the sheriff as the U.S. Pushing through the saloon doors and leaving the relative safety of nonconfrontation to step into the dusty street of political incorrectness to take on the Muslim world alone, well, we can only pray that the real world scenario turns out the way the movie does.

The good guy wins.

But he throws down his sheriff's badge at the end of the movie and abandons the town and its cowardly losers.

We pray that the U.S. will take that first step away from the ineffectual U.N. and face down the Muslim horde on the street of political incorrectness. It would be nice to have a deputy to back us up, but we believe, if you want a real world happy ending, we will have to step onto that dusty street alone to save ourselves and our Western values (the town).

For members of the Church of Political Incorrectness, the movie resonates even more because of its ending. Although we are not advocating abandoning the U.N., we do approve of Cooper's decisive handling of the problem-- with no clean-up afterwards. As we have stated before in a policy we call laissez-faire with a big stick, our approach should be to use our superior weaponry to neutralize their nuclear threat, striking from the air at will without a single American soldier ever setting foot on the ground.

And without waiting for anybody's permission.

Besides the nuclear facilities, targets include military and the electrical power grid. Without electricity, their ability to create nuclear weapons and their modern world-- compliments of the West-- will come crashing down around them. And, we won't be hanging around to help them back onto their feet either.

But we will be watching.

If we find, after they have rebuilt their nation, that they still insist on pursuing a course that endangers our lives and our way of life, we'll come back again and again until they give up once and for all in trying to save the world for Allah. No nation building here. We don't believe in trying to convince the Muslims to embrace democracy because we believe the Qur'an cannot accommodate it. Compromise is not one of its high points-- especially when suggesting a reinterpretation would in all likelihood cost you your life thanks to the religion's psychotic fanantical wing. No, we believe that for most Muslims, the so called "silent majority", the same ones that have remained silent regarding terrorism in the name of Allah, it's easier and safer to remain in the saloon or to hide behind bolted doors and curtain drawn windows with the rest of the world and let someone else face down evil in the street-- especially if that lone hero is an infidel.

Amen.

Required Reading: "Never Again" by John Ashcroft

Former Attorney General John Ashcroft has released a new book called Never Again: Securing America and Restoring Justice. We highly recommend church members buy it and read it. It will give many of you who wonder whether or not we may be too politically incorrect comfort in knowing that we are not. In fact, it sounds like Mr. Ashcroft is already a member of the Church. Check out these book quotes:

"A moral imperative for toughness exists if we are asking America'’s young people to go out and stand in harm'’s way, to risk getting shot, or to lay their lives on the line. Then we are not eligible to be “"nice guys”" who will take a soft and easy approach to the enemy when we realize what is needed to preserve American lives. When we ask for the lifeblood of the next generation of Americans in Afghanistan, Iraq, or on other fields of battle, the moral imperative demands we defend our freedoms with an unyielding mental toughness. If we lose our resolve, our will to win, by mistaking the tranquility of our daily lives for peace with terrorism, or caving in to propaganda campaigns built on a false sense of security, we will fail our moral obligation to young Americans who risk all to protect us.

"The moral imperative demand toughness not simply on the next generation'’s part but on ours.

"Another aspect of the moral imperative for toughness is the recognition that America at its best represents the values of freedom and goodness, and the terrorists represent imposition and evil. Osama bin Laden and his ilk intend to dictate the conditions of a person'’s existence; Americans believe that liberty and freedom are God-given rights. If we are truly endowed with life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness by our Creator, how dare we acquiesce in the face of terrorists, implying that we don'’t care enough about those freedoms to defend them?"

Those lines remind me of the inaugural sermon for the Church. And, this next quote could easily become part of our prayer canonade* at the left, Muslims, and evil in general:

"My prayer is not merely that God will bless America. —He has done so abundantly, —but that we would be granted wisdom in protecting this grand experiment that many of us believe was His idea in the first place."

Amen.

*Canonade is a new word, not a misspelled word. It reflects combining the proactive ideas of the Church of the Politically Incorrect's "canon" with the aggressive artillery fire of a "cannonade".

A Helpful Definition about Who We Are by Cal Thomas

In a recent syndicated column titled "Whatever Happened to Shame?", Cal Thomas offers up a definition that basically defines who we are:

"Public schools, popular culture and editorialists have hammered into us this aversion to transgenerational morality. They proclaim one person's concept and definition of right is as valid as another person's and to assert that there is only one right, one normal and one course is to be 'judgmental' or 'bigoted,' attitudes modernity considers a worse 'sin' than the behavior that used to be called sinful."

Well, Cal, those "judgmental bigoted" blokes sound just like us, members of the Church of the Politically Incorrect. Thanks, and a tip of our backward wearing crucifix Kangols to you!

Bueller? Bueller?: Iraqi Police Give In To Militia Intimidation

Iraq's police force has allowed militias to gain control of the streets by looking the other way rather than risking retaliation (McClatchy News Service)

If Iraqi's won't take a stand, why should we; i.e., throw our young men and women onto those front lines? If you think the Iraqis are worth it, then you are on the wrong website.

Bueller? Bueller?: Angela Merkel and Uncle Sam

How some Eurotrash perceive Germany's first female Chancellor Angela Merkel. I guess they have forgotten how Uncle Sam saved their raggedy asses during World War II. Don't count on them to stand firm against the Muslim invasion.

A report submitted today to the European Union paints a bleak picture of Europe's future. Because of an aging population, it will leave its armed forces facing a serious manpower shortage in 20 years, forcing the governments to shrink their armies. "Public opinion will be increasingly averse to conflict-- and casualties-- and in response, the military should avoid the traditional concept of outright 'victory' over an enemy and focus instead on establishing stability and security."

Sounds a lot like the kind of thinking that is going on in America right now regarding the war in Iraq. We've tried that and it is called "appeasement" and look what it has gotten us: a nuclear Korea and a nuclear wannabe Iran.

The report goes on to say that by the year 2025 "the pool of 16-to 30-year-olds available for military service will be reduced by 15 percent. Over the same time, the populations of Africa and the Middle East are predicted to grow fast, while their economies lag, leaving a multitude of discontented young Africans and Arabs."

Whoop-te-do! Something to look forward to, right?

While the population is aging in Europe and it will become difficult to field an army, "Europe will become increasingly dependent on energy imports-- most notably from the Middle East, Africa and Central Asia. In 20 years, Europe will depend on imports for 90 percent of its oil and 80 percent of its gas."

Beautiful. It will take people of real character to stand up to the Muslim bullies who control the oil. From what I can see of the Europeans now, don't count on them making a stand. America is going to have to hitch up its gun belt, push open the saloon doors, and step out onto the dusty, wind blown street of political incorrectness to face down evil alone. It may not be "High Noon" yet, but it's getting pretty close. I'd say around 11:55.

Remember: You've been WARNED!
