American Lives Sacrificed for an Immigration Agenda

+Liberals will "get it" on immigration only when immigrants stop doing their grub-chores and start "doing" their daughters; when the machetes stop chopping lettuce and start chopping hands; when the influx of people with no interest in assimilation turn their neighborhoods into minuature versions of the countries they escaped, THEN the left will comprehend - when they have to pay a personal price.

+The primary goal of the flotillas is to prevent Israel from inspecting what goes into Gaza; this means more missiles, and more dead Jews.

+MUST READ! I particularly like this quote: "Anti-civilization can only succeed with the assistance of traitors from within the ranks of its civilized enemies… and it never has trouble finding them. Every society breeds people who refuse to see anti-civilization for what it is, rendering it invisible because it exists beyond the limits of their imaginations... Worst of all, every civilization produces those who eagerly cooperate in the task of burning them to the ground, with plans for rebuilding from the ashes tucked into their back pockets."

VDH: The Year That Was

http://pajamasmedia.com/victordavishanson/our-1979/?singlepage=true

+Quote: "About every 30-40 years, democratic citizenries begin to become complacent. They assume their defenses are unnecessary if not destabilizing, and take away from more needed social services and income redistribution. Deterrence and preparedness are assumed in turn the stone-age tools of unsophisticated mind. The peace that follows from past victories and postwar deterrence is considered artificial, and can instead grow far more organically from professed good intentions and signs of magnanimity, if not apology. Philosopher kings assure the world of a new age to come, one in which a new human nature replaces the old Neanderthal pessimism." Hmm, sounds awwwwfully familiar!

+Dhimmitude. And I love the last paragraph: "But is anybody still surprised by the relentless folly of our betters? It seems no lessons are ever learned or conclusions ever reached by the professional multi-cultural crowd. They've got a utopia train to catch, and they're taking you with them, whether you like it or not. And never underestimate the rutting determination of a politician in hot pursuit of money and a voting bloc."

Muslims Killing Muslims in the Name of Jihad

+Muslims kill Muslims - dog bites man. Not news. But the barbarity of it SHOULD BE news.

Teddy Roosevelt, 1919

‘In the first place, we should insist that if the immigrant who comes here in good faith becomes an American and assimilates himself to us, he shall be treated on an exact equality with everyone else, for it is an outrage to discriminate against any such man because of creed, or birthplace, or origin. But this is predicated upon the person’s becoming in every facet an American, and nothing but an American…There can be no divided allegiance here. Any man who says he is an American, but something else also, isn’t an American at all. We have room for but one flag, the American flag… We have room for but one language here, and that is the English language.. And we have room for but one sole loyalty and that is a loyalty to the American people.’

Teddy Roosevelt, 1919
