FITNA

This film is for adults, not for children, only view it if you are 18 or older. It is extremely graphic and portrays extreme violence, the violence of Muslim Extremists. It shows bloody, gory footage, it shows things that should scare you beyond anything you have ever seen in a scary Hollywood movie because it shows things that are scary and real. View it at your own discretion after having been forewarned. Maybe it will wake you up to the threat.



The film FITNA is courtesy LiveLeak @:
http://www.liveleak.com/view?i=7d9_1206624103. It is the long awaited film by Dutch politician Geert Wilders. I placed it here on my blog for educational purposes in that it expresses a view other than that of they who are Islamo-Fascists, other than those who are hard line Islamists who accept the horrendous acts of the Islamo-Fascists, other than those who are devout Muslims but do nothing against the violence and who basically are appeasers of the Islamo-Fascists, other than those who are merely apologists for Islamic extremists, other than those who make excuses, or try to rationalize, as to why Islamo-Fascists do what they do, other than those who are blind to the fact that wherever Islam has planted itself in the world death of non-Muslims has been the rallying cry of all too many Muslims. I am hopeful this will help those in the world who are nonbelievers in Islam, and who are truly moderate Muslims, to wake up to the threat we are facing from Islamo-Facism. I think this film shows a view other than that shown by the hateful Islamo-Fascists who hide behind a religion while they commit atrocities in its name. I think this film shows the view of a rational man who is brave enough to show the truth, as I see it, to us all. That is my opinion, and I stand by it.

Now that you have seen the film, I think that each and everyone of you who have a blog should stand by FITNA and the apparent truths told within it, and I believe you should imbed it into your blog. I think that the more of us who embed this movie into our blogs, the stronger will be the voice that calls out for an end to Islamo-Fascism, so why not do whatever you can to get as many people to watch it as possible. Before you do though let me tell you this: Yes there is a risk to doing so. We have all seen the Islamo-Fascists go berserk, and on a spree of destruction, mayhem, and killing when the cartoon pictures of Mohammad were published. There also will probably be a violent backlash over this film. Yes there is risk, but risk to personal safety is one of the costs of Freedom, isn't it? Stand with us and face those risks head on if you dare to show how much you revere and cherish and are willing to defend: freedom, democracy, civil rights, free speech, freedom of religion (barring those that resort to violation of our rights), and so forth. Stand with us, at risk of peril if you dare, to defend the right to determine how to live our own lives as opposed to standing by idly as the Islamo-Fascists go on a death spree in their attempt to conquer the world.

All the best,

On Violence...

I do not embrace violence as a way of life, but nor do I abhor it and try to rend it from my life. I have been familiar with it as I played as a child, sprouted into a teenager, and to matured as a man. I learned much from both its just and unjust application. I used it to convey a stern measure of discipline to my children as was needed; and I recommend it to other parents so long as wielded within reason. I highly recommend it as a punitive measure, and a preventative one with regard recurrence of crime, for those convicted of certain crimes. I will face it when it is thrust upon me, and I will resort to it to defend myself and my family, my loved ones, my nation, and our Constitution. I will then extol its virtues as I understand that it is a natural, and oft times good, part of the human condition that we call living. It cannot and should not be removed from our lives because to do so would render us spiritless. It should both be wielded and restrained with care as to misuse it can sometimes be devastating, but to incapacitate a peoples' ability to resort to it can be worse and result in catastrophe. A violent nature is just that - Nature - and we should never forget that or try to remove ourselves from the reality that we too are a product of nature and violence is part of what makes us both human and natural beings.

In Memorium: Richard Widmark

A great actor has passed on, and although he had not performed in years as far as I am aware, whenever I see a movie in which he performs, I watch it. From Kiss Of Death" in which he costarred with Victor Mature and Brian Donlevy, to "Two Rode Together" in which he costarred with James Stewart, to "Down To The Sea In Ships" in which he costarred with Lionel Barrymore, to "The Bedford Incident" in which he costarred with Sidney Poitier, to "Madigan" in which he costarred with Inger Stevens, to "Panic In The Streets" in which he costarred with Jack Palance and Barbara Bel Geddes he was one hell of a powerful actor who could play all types of characters well. He was a great actor among great actors, back in the day when really acting, as opposed to special effects, was what made for a good film.

Of course I did not agree with him on his ideas about gun control (he was an ardent anti-RKBA and rabidly pro-gun control sort), and was I beleive another of the Hollywood Hypocrites who said he abhorred violence and guns, yet many if not most of his movies were full of both and he made millions off of both due to those movies. Despite that, I liked his acting, he truly was a fine actor. He was 93 years old when he passed away on March 24, 2008. We lost a good actor and a lousy advocate for our rights as Americans. Still though, I will miss him as an actor, because if anything, that is what he was above all else as I saw him.

Now I am off to work. (Yes that last sentence was put here for someone in particular, and you know who you are, and you may suspect so do I).

All the best,
