MUST READ: THE TRINITY UNITED CHURCH OF CHRIST & LOUIS FARRAKHAN

The Trinity United Church of Christ and Louis Farrakhan
by David J. Jonsson

This is the second of a series of articles on The Clash of Ideologies and Leftist/Marxist – Islamist Alliance.

It is important in considering the following to note that Barack Hussein Obama is a member of the Trinity United Church of Christ and according to their website: The Pastor as well as the membership of Trinity United Church of Christ is committed to a 10-point Vision. When Obama moved to Chicago and became a community organizer, he found it expedient to choose a Christian church to join.

Recall this is a church and a mentor who Obama has relied upon to shape his views, to be his sounding board; the church is the largest recipient of his charity dollars; he proudly states that he admires the church and Jeremiah Wright, Junior. He prayed with Wright before he announced his candidacy for President. He is a beacon for Obama.

Julia Speller, a leader at Trinity and author of Walkin’ the Talk: Keepin’ the Faith in Africentric Congregations, notes in her book that the church offers courses in Swahili and that its youth programs, Intonjane and Isuthu, take their names from Swahili words for coming into manhood and womanhood. The congregation celebrates the Kwanzaa holiday and Umoja Karamu, a Thanksgiving Day service that narrates the story of the black family from its West African origins to today with dancing, drumming and storytelling.

MUST READ: FROM THE MOSQUE TO THE SCHOOLHOUSE TO THE WHITE HOUSE

From the Mosque to the Schoolhouse to the White House
by David J. Jonsson - 11/9/2007


One might ask why it is important to understand the relation between the Leftist/Marxist – Islamist Alliance and the Emerging Movement among Churches and Mosques. It is because it indicates the movement of a historically conservative church and other organizations into the fold. These Emerging Church and Mosque Movements are the elephants in the pew. The Radical Islamist Movement has realized that the tactical weapons of terrorism and suicide bombing may not be achieving their goal for world domination, and that seduction, economics and political action are more effective in winning the war. In the letter: A Common Word Between Us and You the strategy is apparent in their conference of September 2007 held under the theme of “Love in the Quran.” In this essay, I address how the Leftist/Marxist – Islamist Alliance is approaching the goal of achieving a one religion and one-world government.

The public failure of the Soviet Union in 1991 interred Lenin’s theory of social causation in his Red Square casket, although, like Dracula, the monster occasionally climbs out of its casket and wanders through American college campuses and churches, seeking whom it may devour.

As I wrote in the article The Leftist/Marxist – Islamist Alliance Aligns Against Jerusalem1:

“The West has a worldview based on the analysis and actions influenced by looking through the lenses of politics and economics, whereas the Islamists look at the world through the lens of ideology. It is time for the West to place importance on looking at events happening around the world through the lens of ideologies. In the case of the Muslims, their worldview and subsequent actions are shaped by their vision for world domination, the establishment of Islamic kingdom of God on Earth – the creation of worldwide Caliphate and the End Times.”

An inability to understand the ideology behind the Emerging Church Movement, cultural Marxism and political Islam could spell disaster for the West.

MUST READ: RUSSIA OPENS THE PACIFIC FRONT IN INDONESIA

Russia Opens the Pacific Front In Indonesia
by David J. Jonsson

As Sun Tsu said: “Whoever occupies the battleground first and awaits the enemy will be at ease; whoever occupies the battleground afterward and must race to the conflict will be fatigued. Thus one who excels at warfare compels men and is not compelled by other men.”

“Thus the highest realization of warfare is to attack the enemy’s plans; next is to attack their alliances; next to attack their army; and the lowest is to attack their fortified cities.”

Vladimir Putin has the goal of reestablishing Russia as a world power and returning the world to a multi-polar world. Russia’s alliance with China and Iran with their global alliances through economic and military alliances presents the strategic basis for control and the elimination of the hegemony of the United States. The alliances span both the Sunni and Shia branches of Islam as exemplified by the relations with Saudi Arabia, the Gulf States, Indonesia and Iran.

While the politicians and the press are focused on war in Iraq, scant attention is being directed to the greater geopolitical events occurring worldwide. The battleground is already being occupied by the enemies of freedom and liberty. The Russian deal to supply weapons to Indonesia descended on the APEC summit table like a slammed fist.

Russia along with their partners is utilizing alliances in the: political, transportation, military, technology, economic, natural resource and energy sectors to accomplish the goal.

Russia seeks access to the Mediterranean, the Indian Ocean, the Pacific and the Caribbean.

In the space of a few years Russia has managed to create a network of relations that, at a diplomatic level, have launched the Kremlin as an irreplaceable reference point for the central-Asiatic republics, for some middle-east countries, the Pacific Basin and the Caribbean. The network of alliances between Russia, Iran, China, India, Venezuela, Cuba and now Indonesia - motivated exclusively by convenience - have produced an acceleration of economic and financial integration projects.

MUST READ: COMPARING THREE MUSLIM BROTHERHOODS: SYRIA, JORDAN & EGYPT

Comparing Three Muslim Brotherhoods: Syria, Jordan and Egypt
by Prof. Barry Rubin

The banner of the Islamist revolution in the Middle East today has largely passed to groups sponsored by or derived from the Muslim Brotherhood. This article develops an introductory examination of three key Muslim Brotherhood groups and compares their politics, interrelations, and methods. Each, of course, is adapted to the conditions of a particular country.

The banner of the Islamist revolution in the Middle East today has largely passed to groups sponsored by or derived from the Muslim Brotherhood. This article develops an introductory examination of three key Muslim Brotherhood groups and compares their politics, interrelations, and methods. Each, of course, is adapted to the conditions of a particular country.

First, it is important to understand the Brotherhood's policy toward and relations with both jihadist groups (al-Qa'ida, the Zarqawi network, and others such as Hizb al-Tahrir and Hamas) and theorists (such as Abu Mus'ab al-Suri and Abu Muhammad al-Maqdisi).

The Brotherhoods do not have ongoing relationships with Hizb al-Tahrir--which is regarded by them as a small, cultish group of no importance. Other than in Jordan, they have had little contact with it at all.

Regarding al-Qa'ida--both its theorists and its terrorist infrastructure--the Brotherhoods approve generally of its militancy, attacks on America, and ideology (or respect its ideologues), but view it as a rival. An example of this kind of thinking comes from Rajab Hilal Hamida, a Brotherhood member in Egypt's parliament, who said:


From my point of view, bin Ladin, al-Zawahiri and al-Zarqawi are not terrorists
in the sense accepted by some. I support all their activities, since they are a thorn in the side of the Americans and the Zionists.... [On the other hand,] he who kills Muslim citizens is neither a jihad fighter nor a terrorist, but a criminal and a murderer. We must call things by their proper names!


His final sentence is intended to show the difference between the Brotherhood's and al-Qa'ida's views of strategy and tactics.

MUST READ: APPEASEMENT & GLOBAL STRATEGY OF THE RUSSIAN-IRAN CABAL

Appeasement And Global Strategy Of The Russian-Iran Cabal
by David J. Jonsson


If you believe: “Your Life Can Be Wonderful if we get out of Iraq now!” the events going on around the world become a haze as you watch the latest golf scores or read the propaganda for the latest appeasement journal or cable news cast. All you hear are the speeches of the latest ‘Tokyo Rose” complaining about the U.S. and its war mongering, blood for oil or unfair treatment of terrorists.

There is a group that wants to destroy our way of life in our life time.


The Tough Questions that Must be Answered

The question remains as to if the allies joined for freedom and liberty will support a battle against the forces of evil.

In a time of war, the critical elements for success are to know:

Who is the enemy?

What are their goals?

What is the definition of success, and finally

What will the world be like if we lose?

Up to the time of the Munich Agreement in 1938, these questions were not answered. The West faces the same situation following the cease-fire in Lebanon in 2006. The West must decide on the answers to the questions or be prepared to live under Shariah Law in a totalitarian Islamic state. The question that has to be answered is: Would you choose appeasement and wind up as a lampshade in a palace or fight for Western democracy, freedom and liberty?

On our comprehensively terrorised globe, almost everybody, from covert, stateless bands of Jihadists—Hezbollah, Hamas and al-Qaeda to name a few to accredited members of the United Nations, believes himself in need of either ready-made atomic bombs or the technology and expertise with which to manufacture them. And nuclear weapons have become the weapons of the poor. Terrorism as a means of warfare is not confined to so-called non-state actors like Mohamed Atta and his colleagues, but is habitually employed by nation states.

MUST READ: THE DANGERS OF THE LIBERAL-ISLAMIST CONNECTION (PART 1 OF 4)

The Dangers of the Liberal-Islamist Connection (Part One of Four)
By David J. Jonsson

If you believe your life can be wonderful if we get out of Iraq now, then events going on around the world probably already have become a haze as you watch the latest golf scores or read the propaganda from the latest appeasement journal or cable news cast. After all, it seems all one hears are speeches of the latest Tokyo Rose complaining about the U.S. and its war mongering, blood for oil or unfair treatment of terrorists.

However, there is a group that wants to destroy our way of life in our lifetime, and there are some tough questions that must be answered. One paramount question is whether the allies now joined for freedom and liberty will support a battle against the forces of evil. In a time of war, the critical elements for success are to know the following facts:

The Dangers of the Liberal-Islamist Connection (Part Two of Four)
by David J. Jonsson

According to the Financial Times, a new report from the Institute of International Finance states, “The Gulf states have passed China! Six Persian Gulf States now have almost $1.6 trillion in foreign assets, dwarfing even China’s mammoth $1.1 trillion of foreign reserves.” These Gulf States are all members of the so-called Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC). They are Bahrain, Kuwait, Oman, Qatar, Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates.

There are massive piles of wealth growing in the GCC. The report continues: “Along with China and other countries, the GCC is increasingly setting aside more and more of these funds to invest abroad -- in stocks, real estate and private businesses. What they buy could have a huge impact on market prices -- and your investments.” See my article: Nationalization: A Plan for World Domination?

It appears strange that politicians would suggest that the U.S. fund a Marshall Plan to support Islamic countries when the Islamic Countries of the Gulf are accumulating hordes of U.S. dollars. It is in the Islamic countries where the growth of terrorism and hostility to the West is generated, fomented and funded. I will now discuss how these elements are directly interrelated, with suggestions for potential solutions to these immensely troubling threats.

The Dangers of the Liberal-Islamist Connection (Part Three of Four)
by David J. Jonsson

What is the Goal of Islam?

From the very beginning of the teaching of Muhammad, Islam was - and still is – driven to create the Islamic Kingdom of God on Earth. Their desire for this kingdom is that a caliph rule it under Shariah law by which all non-believers – infidels - are subservient to Muslims. It has been said by many apologists for Islam, that Christians and Jews lived together peacefully under Islamic rule for 500 years. This was true, but only as dhimmis living in servitude to harsh, unbending Islamic rule. The Islamists and their leftist propagandists wish to have us believe that this is the way to peace.

The Jihadists’ intent upon instilling Shariah law - Islamic law in Muslim society - and ultimately recreating a “pure” Muslim society under their interpretation of the law, often translates into an endorsement for violent Jihad as practiced by bin Laden and espoused by the Muslim Brotherhood and others. Ideology is often overlooked and is considered separate from the strategic and operational aspects of Islamist militancy. The ideology of this movement is similar to, or even worse than, Nazi ideology was and it should be dealt with accordingly.

Therefore, I still believe that one of the primary missions of the international community today is to repeat its experience with defeating Nazism, and to deal with this dangerous barbarian culture exactly as it dealt with the Nazi culture. If this does not happen, the near future is liable to bring many tragic events, the consequences of which will be far more severe for all of humanity than the consequences of World War II.

The Dangers of the Liberal-Islamist Connection (Conclusion of Four Part Series)

Turkey’s Move to Join the Middle East and away from the EU

In considering relations with Turkey, the West must remember that the enemy of your enemy is not necessarily your friend and ally. In a departure from its traditional foreign policy, which has gone largely unnoticed, Turkey is now becoming an important player in the Middle East. See:
Turkey Rediscovers the Middle East, Foreign Affairs July/August 2007 and The city where Turkey’s republic lost its way, Financial Times June 26, 2007

Turkey’s growing concern over Kurdish nationalism has brought Ankara closer to the governments of Iran and Syria, which also contend with restive Kurds at home. The shift is also accompanied by the gradual Islamization of the country led by the ruling Islamist Justice and Development Party (known as the AKP), headed by Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan, who has managed to tap into rising popular nationalism by fusing it with Islam.

Some 60 percent of all U.S. military equipment destined for Iraq goes through the territory or airspace of Turkey, a Muslim ally and member of NATO. If this route to Iraq were restricted or closed entirely, the ability of the United States effectively to combat the insurgency and violent militias in Iraq would be impaired. The Erdogan government could also come under domestic pressure to restrict U.S. use of the air base at Incirlik in southern Turkey for re-supplying American troops in Afghanistan. Should it be necessary to take military action against Iran or even Russia, the availability of bases in Turkey will be critical.

In addition Turkey controls access to the Bosporus Strait, an oil choke point for oil supply to Europe. Energy is a major driver behind the warming of Iranian-Turkish relations. Iran is the second-largest supplier of natural gas to Turkey (after Russia). Iran’s nuclear ambitions, however, are a source of serious concern in Ankara. A nuclear-armed Iran could have a destabilizing impact on the Persian Gulf region and could force Turkey to take countermeasures for its own security.

If Iran refuses to comply with the demands of the International Atomic Energy Agency, Ankara will have essentially three options: expand its cooperation on missile defense with the United States and Israel; beef up its conventional military capabilities, especially medium-range missiles; or develop its own nuclear weapons capability.

MUST READ: NATIONALIZATION - A PLAN FOR WORLD DOMINATION

Nationalization – A Plan for World Domination
by David J. Jonsson

"During times of universal deceit, telling the truth becomes a revolutionary act."
-George Orwell

We are witnessing how nation states are increasing using nationalization as a tool for world control of energy production, energy transportation, basic products and financial assets for control. It appears that the actions of Russia and China combined with pawns the Islamist states and the Leftist governments in Latin America are coordinated in their actions. Initially the nationalizations were occurring within the countries, and recently these actions have extended into the EU and the U.S.

In many cases the immediate result has the increased rewards to the sellers of EU and U.S. companies to the foreign state owned entities. The EU and U.S. investors, the populous and their compliant governments fail to realize the long term implications of the sale to the totalitarian regimes.

The funding of these foreign totalitarian Islamist, Marxist and Communist states has come from the disastrous financial performance – balance of trade, outsourcing and fiscal deficits and energy dependence on Islamist and Marxist states. The actions have been further facilitated by the banks and financial advisors seeking immediate financial gain. These actions have also led to acceptance of Shariah law applied to the financial sector as a step toward gradual Islamization of the countries.

Who are the players and what are the recent actions?

MUST READ: PROGRESSIVE ISLAMIZATION & THE INCREASING APPEASEMENT OF IRAN

Progressive Islamization and the Increasing Appeasement of Iran
By David J. Jonsson


There is an Arab saying; “the enemy of my enemy is my friend.” And of course the converse is: “the enemy of your enemy is not necessarily your friend and allay”. There is also a Persian proverb that says: “A snake never will give birth to a dove.” The West had better realize quickly that this proverb could not be more apt when referring to the collective leadership of the Islamic Republic of Iran.

However, considering the combined essence of the proverbs, while the West may want to pit Saudi Arabia against Iran, discreet, behind-the-scenes a Saudi-Iranian pact of no aggression may be all but inevitable. Saudi Foreign Minister Prince Saud al-Faisal said as much on the record: "Stop any attempt aimed at spreading sectarian strife in the region."

The U.S. and the EU must also recognize that the Bear (Russia) and the Dragon (China) have a role in his conflict. This is what has in previous articles been referred to as the Leftist/Marxist – Islamist Alliance. The Alliance – which also includes Cuba and Venezuela - brings the threat near to the shores of the U.S. This Alliance has also permeated to the depths of our media and elected officials of our governments.

...

Until the U.S. and its allies understand who the enemy is and their goals, and put forward a plan for survival, the world will be heading toward a major war of untold destruction. We are revisiting 1938 where commercial interests, and not security, are driving our actions as they did then.

This image will not be improved by elites counted among the Leftist/Marxist – Islamist Alliance who have not only abandoned, but are attacking their own people, selling out their historical legacy to their worst enemies, and muzzling those who object to this. It is going to be interesting for future historians to unveil how many senior Western leaders or bureaucrats, bankers and corporate leaders have been bought and paid by petrodollars.

MUST READ: GLOBAL THREATS LEADING TO THE LEFTIST/MARXIST - ISLAMIST TAKEOVER

Global Threats Leading to the Leftist/Marxist – Islamist Takeover
by David J. Jonsson

In order to understand the issues faced by the West it is necessary to review history and look at the many factors that are currently leading to the almost intractable solution to the crisis developing worldwide.

The future enemies of Europe and the United States will be a mutation of current and past foes both domestically and internationally. In confronting these forces, knowledge of their ideologies, objectives and determination will make all the difference. The domestic foes may be either sympathizers or via actual operatives. In the period following the downfall of the Soviet Union, this is the first time that favorable conditions have emerged on the side of the Leftist and Islamists around the world to challenge the hegemony of the West.

The USS Nimitz and its support ships will be departing San Diego Monday, April 2, to join the John C. Stennis Strike Group in the Persian Gulf. The nuclear carrier is due to relieve the USS Dwight D. Eisenhower , but military sources in the Gulf believe all three US carriers will stay put if tensions continue to climb or if fighting breaks out involving American, British and Iranian forces. The mighty American armada is further supported by the USS Bataan and USS Boxer strike groups. See: DEBKA File of March 30: US financial sources in Bahrain report American investors in Bahrain advised to pack up business operations and leave.

The Iranian hard-line faction of President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad and Gen. Rahim Safavi, commander of the Revolutionary Guards whose naval wing performed the seizure of the British Sailors have gained the upper hand after British premier Tony Blair’s initial passive, semi-conciliatory response. The escalating row has pushed oil prices higher and hence increased funding to Iran and their alliance – a win for the enemy. The U.N. Security Council agreed to a watered down statement expressing "grave concern" and calling "for an early resolution of this problem, including the release of the 15 personnel. Britain had wanted a tougher stance, but after hours of negotiations, Russia blocked a statement that would have demanded an immediate release of the British crew.

Washington has refused to risk of a full-scale war confrontation with the Revolutionary Guards for the sake of the British sailors. The actions of the Pelosi Democrats in the U.S. Congress actions on Iraq funding has also emboldened the Iranians and King Abdullah of Saudi Arabia making an unprecedented public attack on America, condemning the "foreign occupation" of Iraq by his oldest ally. In the article: Evil Americans, Poor Mullahs: published in Spiegel online March 29, “Forty-eight percent of Germans think the United States is more dangerous than Iran, a new survey shows, with only 31 percent believing the opposite. Germans' fundamental hypocrisy about the US suggests that it's high time for a new bout of re-education…The German political establishment, which will no doubt loudly lament the result of the poll, is largely responsible for this wave of anti-Americanism.” On the Iranian’s wish list is the annihilation of Israel. See also: Will Arab Muslim "Allies" Support the West in a Time of Crisis? by David J. Jonsson.

The lack of attention to plan and address the dangers of dependence on imported oil from the Middle East and Venezuela has allowed the transfer of enormous financial reserves to these countries to fund their development for control. Europe’s nightmare is further compounded by the potential for a world natural gas cartel. The Leftist/Marxist — Islamist Alliance through joining together a global cabal of nations for the control of the world’s energy infrastructure, finance, media and transportation assets present a real and current danger to the West.

Russia has effectively created a noose around Europe controlling their import of natural gas. The threat is as equally potent as their nuclear weapons. It is important to recall the events leading to the Euro-Arab Dialog (EAD), Oil Embargos, and European appeasement of the Islamic world following the Yon Kippur War in 1973 which lead to export of Islamization to Europe. See: Islamic Economics and the Final Jihad – The Muslim Brotherhood to the Leftist/Marxist – Islamist Alliance by David J. Jonsson pg. 204-210.

The world’s natural gas exporting countries will gather in Doha on April 9 for a forum that may set the grounds for a new natural gas cartel built on the rules of OPEC. The cartel, which for a start would bring together Russia, Iran, Algeria, Qatar and Venezuela, aims at becoming the most important energy player worldwide. See: Europe's nightmare: A world natural gas cartel.

The most important supporter for such a cartel is Iran, the world’s second largest natural gas producer, which is forced especially by political reasons to create a mechanism of control over the international resources market. Iran and Russia can form an OPEC-like organization because these countries hold some half of the gas reserves in the world; Ayatollah Ali Khamenei was recently quoted as saying.

Without diminishing the threat posed by the near term events in the Middle East, it is important nonetheless to recognize that they are a distraction, a deliberate provocation designed to keep our eyes focused on the wrong enemy. The true threat is and always has been the worldwide communist movement joined by Islamists, spearheaded by Russia, and Communist China. While the Iraq and Iran crises continues, the strategy of the Grand Chess Masters—Russia the bear and China the dragon, along with their pawns the Leftists, Marxists and Islamists, continue to develop and put in place their strategy for the ultimate goal of world domination. See my article: The Grand Chess Masters—The Bear and the Dragon.

We have lived for some years of peace following the “End of the Cold War” and we are now facing the prospect of moving to a disordered world from which the West cannot hide.

All of us would prefer years of repose to years of conflict. But history will not allow it. And so it once again rests with us to do what we have done in the past: it is our duty. We must win and we will win.

Questions That Need to Addressed

1. What do you the people of Europe and America want
our future to be?

2. What do you leave behind?

3. Who are the potential enemies?

4. What are the goals of our enemies?

When we have answered these questions, we can then discuss a strategy to maintain our faith, culture, freedom, liberty and Western Democracy as we know it.

Threats for Consideration:

1. The Conflict of ideologies

2. Pacifism, Self-hatred, and Complacency

3. The Increasing Number of Countries with Ballistic
Weapons

4. Nuclear Proliferation

5. Increasing Military Strength of Russia And China and

MUST READ: WILL ARAB MUSLIM "ALLIES" SUPPORT THE WEST IN A TIME OF CRISIS?

Will Arab Muslim “Allies” Support the West in a Time of Crisis?
David J. Jonsson

Iran captured 15 British military personnel last week, accusing them of illegally entering Iranian waters, and British Prime Minister Tony Blair has warned that the dispute would enter a “different phase” unless they are freed. Iran has denounced the U.N. resolution as illegal and has vowed not to suspend its nuclear work, denying Western accusations it is seeking to develop nuclear weapons. Putin, according to the Kremlin, said the recent U.N. Security Council vote on a new resolution expanding sanctions on Iran over its nuclear program had sent Iran a "serious political signal of the need for cooperation with the International Atomic Energy Agency and the international community." Putin also said the resolution "unambiguously rules out the use of force." British embassy spokesman said Wednesday that a freeze of relations with Iran will include bilateral formal meetings and all the state-sponsored commercial activities.

Two US, one French aircraft carrier in Gulf region- The United States and France have three aircraft carrier battle groups in the Gulf region, U.S. and French naval sources said on Monday. The USS Stennis carrier strike group arrived in late February with an additional 6,500 sailors to join the USS Dwight D Eisenhower carrier strike group. The West needs access to their ports and airbases in the Gulf to execute operations. This raises the questions:

  • Can the West count on Gulf countries to support the West in a time of crisis?
  • Should the West provide weapons to these states?
  • Should the state owned companies be trusted to own critical industries in the West?
  • Can the West count on their military being able to use the ports, shipping and airports owned by these countries.

MUST READ: IRAQ, IRAN, GLOBAL WARMING & THE APOCALYPSE

Iraq, Iran, Global Warming and The Apocalypse
David J. Jonsson - 3/14/2007

Islam has many apocalyptic prophecies; this aspect of Islam contributes to the driving force of Islam. Iran joined by Syria wants to end the democratic experiment in Iraq. Iranian money, weapons and expertise are used by terrorists to kill Americans in Iraq. Iran’s support of Hamas disrupts Palestinian peace efforts. Hezbollah, a group also backed by Iran and Syria, seeks to destabilize Lebanese democracy and restart a border war with Israel. Iran which denies that a European Holocaust ever took place is now planning to create a second Holocaust in Europe and in the U.S. with the development of nuclear weapons and the missiles to deliver the weapons.

Only the sustained American policy of ostracizing Iran and Syria, galvanizing the international community to enforce financial and trading sanctions, supporting Iranian and Syrian reformers, and keeping all options for war on the table including a high-profile presence in the area offers any hope containing a potential holocaust.

In order to understand the issues faced by the Administration it is necessary to review history and look at the many factors that are currently leading to the almost intractable solution to the crisis developing in the Middle East. The solution requires thinking outside the current events in Iraq. It requires abandoning the ‘silo’ approach of addressing foreign policy, energy, environment—Global Warming, homeland security, and defense as separate issues. The solution also requires the integration of commercial/business and government sectors in the solution. Without addressing the geopolitical ramifications to the U.S., EU, Russia and China beyond the immediate crisis in Iraq and Iran; a solution cannot be found.

Exclusively increasing military strength, diplomacy or withdrawing from Iraq will not defer or result in a lasting peace. Whatever way the Iran and Iraq crisis is resolved, it will lead to a major shift in the geopolitical landscape. The goal is to have a soft landing. This will require sacrifice, compromise but not appeasement, and most importantly prioritizing the most important elements of our culture – faith, freedom, liberty, and democracy, as we know it in America. Decision time is fast approaching. Unfortunately both Iran and the U.S. may be underestimating the power of the other side and overestimating their own. Iran thinks it has a lot of deterrents, in Iraq and elsewhere, and in the armed forces - and it sees the US bogged down in Iraq, Washington divided and public opinion in the Muslim world opposed to war.

We will discuss how these elements are directly interrelated and suggest potential solutions for consideration.

In an editorial by Jennifer Hughes in the Financial Times on March 19, 2006, she commented: Is it time to dust off the dreaded “e” word—that is exuberance? The word entered the market lexicon on December 6, 1996, when Alan Greenspan asked: “How do we know when irrational exuberance has unduly escalated asset values?” The good news is cyclical and bad news is structural. Have we reached the point where the structural changes affecting the Dollar will have a long-term impact and hence the U.S. economy and the creation of a New World Order? The good news is that the cyclical upturn is continuing—at least for the time being. When they do turn and we dwell on the bad news and structural changes, they are bigger than they have ever been. Structural changes are not news and they take longer to work their way through the economy, but they are highly significant.

Conclusion

The long-term goal of the Leftist/Marxist – Islamist Alliance is world domination. The control of the economic, political, energy and transportation infrastructure is a key element in accomplishing this goal. The replacement of the Dollar as the reserve currency is a critical element.

Economics and energy policy must be a part of the U.S. foreign policy going forward. Military strength is necessary and will contribute to but will not be sufficient for the future security of the U.S. and the West. Domestic policy is linked to our security. Fighting terrorism, spreading democracy and attention to the Middle East are important but the economic and energy issues must be addressed domestically and worldwide and this also means in Latin America. Europe recognized the importance of energy security and is doing something about it. The U.S. needs to do likewise.

Recognizing the importance of energy to security, on Tuesday, on March 21, 2006 European Union president challenged the 25-nation bloc's leaders to lay the foundations for a new era of cooperation on energy policy at an economic summit this week. Austrian Chancellor Wolfgang Schuessel urged the bloc to develop a policy, which ensured security of supply, environmental sustainability and the conditions for a competitive energy market. Energy security has shot up the list of world leaders' priorities following the gas disruptions in Europe, soaring oil prices, attacks on oil installations in Nigeria and tensions over Iran's nuclear ambitions.

The European Commission proposed this month that the bloc should adopt a common external energy policy, new rules for storing gas and oil and action to boost energy efficiency.

MUST READ: "IRAN REACHES THE MEDITERRANEAN"

"Iran Reaches the Mediterranean"
Author David J. Jonsson's commentary on the 2006 Palistinian elections.


...

…The Prophet Muhammad was asked, "What city will be conquered first, Constantinople or Romiyya?" He answered, "The city of Hirqil [i.e., the Byzantine emperor Heraclius] will be conquered first." That is Constantinople… Romiyya is the city called today “Rome,” the capital of Italy. The city of Hirqil [that is, Constantinople] was conquered by the young 23-year-old Ottoman Muhammad bin Morad, known in history as Muhammad the Conqueror, in 1453. The other city, Romiyya, remains, and we hope and believe [that it too will be conquered].
This means that Islam will return to Europe as a conqueror and victor, after being expelled from it twice; once from the South, from Andalusia, and a second time from the East, when it knocked several times on the door of Athens.


...

This means that the friends of the Prophet heard that two cities would be conquered by Islam, Romiyya and Constantinople, and the Prophet said that Hirqil [i.e. Constantinople] would be conquered first. Romiyya is Rome, the capital of Italy, and Constantinople was the capital of the state of Byzantine Rome, which today is Istanbul. He said that Hirqil, which is Constantinople, would be conquered first, and this is what happened…

All right, Constantinople was conquered, and the second part of the prophecy remains, that is, the conquest of Romiyya. This means that Islam will return to Europe. Islam entered Europe twice and left it… Perhaps the next conquest, Allah willing, will be by means of preaching and ideology. The conquest need not necessarily be by the sword… [The conquest of Mecca] was not by the sword or by war, but by a [Hudabiyya] treaty, and by peace… Perhaps we will conquer these lands without armies. We want an army of preachers and teachers who will present Islam in all languages and in all dialects…

...

The Hadith says that the city of Constantinople, the city of Heracles, will be conquered first. We conquered Constantinople, and the second part of the prophecy remains: the conquest of Romiyya. The conquest of Romiyya means that Islam will return to Europe. In one of my previous programs, I said that I think that this conquest would not be by the sword or armies, but by preaching and ideology. Europe will see that it suffers from materialistic culture and will seek an alternative; it will seek a way out, it will seek a lifeboat. It will find no lifesaver but the message of Islam, the message of the muezzin, who gives it religion but does not deny it this world, brings it to Heaven, but does not uproot it from Earth. Allah willing, Islam will return to Europe, and the Europeans will convert to Islam. Then they themselves will be able to be the ones to disseminate Islam in the world, more than we ancient Muslims. This is within Allah's capabilities.

What the future might hold if we fail to deal with the Leftist/Marxist-Islamist Alliance
David J. Jonsson - 8/8/2006

With every passing year following the events of 9/11 the rise of Leftist/Marxist-Islamist Alliance has increased global instability. By the beginning of 2006, nearly all the combustible ingredients—far bigger in scale than those leading to World Wars 1 and 11 and the Gulf Wars of 1991 or 2003—were in place.

Caliphatism - Establishing the "Islamic Kingdom of God on Earth"
David J. Jonsson - 9/11/2006
President George W. Bush in his speech of Speech of September 5, 2006 discussed the Global War on Terror.

The terrorists who attacked us on September the 11th, 2001, are men without conscience - but they're not madmen. They kill in the name of a clear and focused ideology, a set of beliefs that are evil, but not insane.(Suggsted reading: The Clash of Ideologies: The Making of the Christian and Islamic Worlds) These al Qaeda terrorists and those who share their ideology are violent Sunni extremists. They're driven by a radical and perverted vision of Islam that rejects tolerance, crushes all dissent, and justifies the murder of innocent men, women and children in the pursuit of political power. They hope to establish a violent political utopia across the Middle East, which they call a "Caliphate" - where all would be ruled according to their hateful ideology. Osama bin Laden has called the 9/11 attacks -- in his words - "a great step towards the unity of Muslims and establishing the Righteous [Caliphate]."

This caliphate would be a totalitarian Islamic empire encompassing all current and former Muslim lands, stretching from Europe to North Africa, the Middle East, and Southeast Asia. We know this because al Qaeda has told us. About two months ago, the terrorist Zawahiri - he's al Qaeda's second in command -- declared that al Qaeda intends to impose its rule in every land that was a home for Islam, from Spain (Andalusia) to Iraq. He went on to say, "The whole world is an open field for us."

We know what this radical empire would look like in practice, because we saw how the radicals imposed their ideology on the people of Afghanistan. Under the rule of the Taliban and al Qaeda, Afghanistan was a totalitarian nightmare -- a land where women were imprisoned in their homes, men were beaten for missing prayer meetings, girls could not go to school, and children were forbidden the smallest pleasures like flying kites.(Suggested reading: The Kite Runner by Khaled Hosseini.) Religious police roamed the streets, beating and detaining civilians for perceived offenses. Women were publicly whipped. Summary executions were held in Kabul's soccer stadium in front of cheering mobs. And Afghanistan was turned into a launching pad for horrific attacks against America and other parts of the civilized world -- including many Muslim nations.

MUST READ: ISLAMIC ECONOMICS & SHARIAH LAW: A PLAN FOR WORLD DOMINATION

Islamic Economics and Shariah Law: A Plan for World Domination
David J. Jonsson

My goal today is to put you into the mind of an Islamist — to think like an Islamist. It is only possible to understand the events occurring by understanding their thinking and what it would mean to live under Shariah law. There is a well-worn Cliché “It’s the economy stupid” that appears around election times. So it is with Islamic Economics and the Clash of Ideologies we are witnessing today. See also: Islamic Economics and the Final Jihad: The Muslim Brotherhood to the Leftist/Marxist - Islamist Alliance.

It should be realized that the goal of the Islamists, following in the footsteps of Muhammad, is not so much to conquer the land but to Islmanize the populations. In so doing they seek to have the lands come under Shariah law and that the lands become dar al-Islam—the land of Islam and that all non-Muslims accept the status of Dhimmis—subservient to Muslim rule. The Plan involves the incremental acceptance of basic tenants of Shariah law as applied to all aspects of life—the Islamic “Way of Life”. This implies the desire to incrementally change the laws and ultimately the Constitution of the U.S. This requires the population to accept the new laws as equally valid and acceptable. Initially this will result in parallel legal systems and progressing from there with laws that may be applied locally and ultimately nationally. Jihad can be with the pen and the tongue, just as it can be the sword and the spear as Dr. Yusuf al-Qaradawi the spiritual leader of the Muslim Brotherhood has said. Knowledge combined with economic control can be wielded with the precision of a sharp sword to effect any desired social/political change necessary for the fulfillment of Islam’s goal.
