Earlier
this week, in the wake of the most recent high-profile acts of believers of the
Islamic faith obeying Allah, thus, obeying the command of the central figure of
Islam, its alleged “prophet,” Donald Trump called for a "total and
complete shutdown of Muslims entering the United States."
He
asserted, "Without looking at the various polling data, it is obvious to
anybody the hatred is beyond comprehension." He added, "Where this
hatred comes from and why we will have to determine. Until we are able to
determine and understand this problem and the dangerous threat it poses, our
country cannot be the victims of horrendous attacks by people that believe only
in Jihad, and have no sense of reason or respect for human life."
He
stated, “What's happened is we're out of control. We have no idea who's coming
into our country. We have no idea if they love us or if they hate us.”
He
added to the above, speaking of “Muslims” he knows, “they know we have a
problem. They know we have a real problem.” Trump thus asserted, “We can't put
up with it, folks.”
Therefore,
he calls for a “complete shutdown of Muslims entering the United States until
our country's representatives can figure out what the hell is going on.”
We
must find out—and then deal honestly with that that we do discover, I
add--Trump argued, “Where the hatred comes from and why … we're going to have
to figure it out. We have to figure it out,” he presses.
He argues,
“We can't live like this. It's going to get worse and worse. You're going to
have more World Trade Centers. It's going to get worse and worse, folks.”

Small
wonder thus, on the Left, on the Right, the “Lions” among them have risen.
Stirred
they are, roused from their swooning and slumbering in the face of the source
of the Islamic plot and threat against us; at the notion, at the gull, that anyone
would dare table the idea, we seek, find and address the reason for the drive
behind the jihadist that attack our nation, kill our loved ones, ravish our
peace.
Damn
the Soul! They cry. Damn the man, the notion, and all beings in support of him
and it!
How
dare anyone do such a despicable thing! How dare one!
And
what makes it all the more “reprehensible” and “un-American” is, it is not just
anyone who made the above suggestion, it is—all but beyond belief!—one, a
Candidate for the office of the U.S. Presidency.
Therefore,
not the least bit surprising, Senator Lindsey Graham insinuated, he was willing
to do his level best to see to it, that, should Trump somehow become the Nominee on
the Republican ticket, Hilary wins the national election.
Because,
as Lindsey put it, it is one thing to lose an election but quite another to
lose honor.
In
speaking of the said lost honor, I’ve little, if any, doubt Graham speaks with
the absence of first-hand experience of the bitter taste of lost honor suffered
and, what we deduce from his statements, is and would be the sweetness of
“Hillary.”

Therefore,
given the uproar and the “Give us Hillary!” (“Give us Barabbas!) moment that
the Right is now convulsing in; because I know, if the challenge Trump has
tabled is allowed to come to fruition, it will take us directly to the
so-called “sacred” Islamic text; I press we go there.
Because
all—which are many—who have done so know the truth Congress--Left and Right--as
well as the office of the US Presidency seek to obfuscate: the reason for the
hatred is in the said texts.
They know,
if the challenge Trump has tabled is allowed to come to fruition, it will take
us directly into the pages of Qur’an, the pages of sira, the pages of regarded
Islamic tafsir, and into the volumes, chapters, pages and lines of ahadith.
Our
elected officials know, that written in the said text will stand, and on its own, testify to the reason for the hatred in heart, mind, and soul in the
believer in the way of Muhammad. All who have made their journey into
the so-called “sacred texts” of Islam, they know, that written there eradicates both question and puzzlement with respect to the message therein.
Yet
our elected Representatives all but call for Trumps immediate binded-haul to the
guillotine—because they believe we must respect Islam’s so-called “Holy Book,”
thus, so too, its “Holy Prophet.”
But that is a “respect” we can ill-afford to render.
Moreover,
I solemnly warn, should we continue rendering respect to the doctrine of Islam,
and thus protecting that therein from being put, spotlighted, on center stage;
that “respect” rendered will be the death of this nation—time to write
“Ichabod” on District of Columbus signs. Hang the same in New York Harbor.
