I said I wouldn't post any new subjects, and I'm not, just making an addendum to the last few expressions of mine.
Per the first Presidential debate, it stood out that essentially Obama would treat Muslim aggressors without pre-conditions at any time for as long as it takes to stop terror worldwide from occurring even against other Muslims; McCain essentially conveyed no opinion on Islamic leadership but represented a strong fist will crush ANY nation striking out at the USA. Perhaps both campaigns forgot Doudou Diene and the UN anti-Islam defamation proposal, perhaps they didn't.
Now, a number of Muslim leaders, apologies to Monsiuer Diene, installed or inherited Islam as a STATE religion further with mandamus from such leaders...elected or otherwise...that THEY and successors are supreme in their lands...atheism, plurality, and such are death sentences, and like an old Soviet Kommissar asking "who (chik-chik) DOESN'T want to be in Communist Party, Comrades?", Muslims in such lands have no say or choice...indeed, who opinion-polls THEM in those lands on anything? And that most Muslims aren't fans of that theocracy is evident from how many "tunnel out" to Europe and elsewhere, ala Latin Americans tunnelling to El Norte to escape dictators and bad economic managers.
Western leaders for the most part either encourage or passively tolerate that because "a Muslim leader" of such State has wrapped his age-old secular power trip in the cloak of religion, all signs of Christianity...even Stoic good works...must be obliterated so as not to nationalistically, racially, or otherwise "offend the leader of ALL Muslims"...oddly enough, yes, even when say Muslim Bashir, an African, uses Islamic Janjaweed to kill in Darfur or the Taliban or whoever elsewhere; look how everyone bowed to Mushareff on such grounds, Pakistan created by partition out of India about sixty years ago and a STATE Muslim nation...yep, EVERY Pakisatani LOVED him and a number of his predecessors, and he probably stepped down recently due to old age. And to think, like MyMood Alibabajihad in Iran, he used Islam to claim Hindu-popular India was racist to Pakistanis and should...um...give him money and power to use as sees fit as a respected fatwa issuer against "uppity" Muslims in his land. Yep, that's even the long-ago 1999 origin of the "anti defamation of Islam" Mushareef launched; as if Doudou Diene isn't confusing enough as to how Islam is a "race" what with Asiatic, Middle Eastern, and African peoples its largest followers.
So McCain sounds better re the predictable "bomb you if you hit us", but that doesn't contain much address of why Obama is full of hooey that the West won't "gain respect of everyday Muslims" unless we let Muslim Bashirs and Ladens alone to do as they please even to other Muslims, and unless we rid the USA of any need to do reasonably right things under conscience and in fact laws (so we don't look Judeo-Christian or something). Like a MyMood wrapping his power trip in religion or anything else not necessary for it, some even in the USA sound like they're merely availing of irrelevant cloaks to get to do things the same way.
Through no "fault" of my own, I was born into the Christian faith via Roman Catholic parents. To my readings, Christ seemed to mean that all mankind from highest through lowest must bear anything, as He did, in doing the right things according to the Ten Commandments and His teachings, no matter how else they lead lives, and do so with humility not anger; for the life of me, I confess I can find no Christian or other Divine faith ab initio teachings which separate leaders from little guys re the need to not simply impose power over others because it's easy, yet many Western neo-evangelicals and even some traditional clergy, perhaps due to over-dependence on government for funding, existence, or both, seem to embrace "let dictators dictate and be God's appointed rulers".
McCain seems to infer Muslims all hate us irredeemably, why bother leaders unless they whack us; Obama seems to infer even Janjaweed in Darfur will stop if he's elected, a boast made upon stilted explanation of how many State-run religions operate; McCain has the better of two thin premises on that issue, but seemed to go about it in a way not challenging Obama's perception of underlying facts re State-run faiths including Islam and dictatorships hiding amid same. Maybe that's why local Comcast cable channel 53, CLTV, reported today Daley is getting millions to build MORE houses in place of Wamu branches Chase is closing in takeover, and Daley generally expects more immigration no matter who wins what where when or state of the national economy.
