Are you nuts? Nobody is lighting torches and going forth to seek vengeance. Now that would be silly. The liberals are very much about ‘monkey see, monkey do’.

Returning to see if my previous comment was posted, I noticed something in your reply I had not considered before. It is a warning against the undue and unwelcome influence of those with an agenda or allegiance not beneficial to the host country.

Islam is certainly not seen as a substantial player in the various circles of US power, whether government, media, industry, academia, or the religious life of the nation. When they do come up, it’s over concern of them wanting special rights (as opposed to equal rights), or radical professors or clerics, or charities funding terrorism, or sleeper cells, or the like. And it doesn’t take but one or two isolated cases of any circumstance for concern to have the patriotic faithful rally against the concerted efforts of radical Islam to infiltrate and conspire to take control and destroy what is good and worth defending about America.

Yet look at where the power is wielded. And the disproportionate representation, and the conflicting interests, and the ability to misdirect or attack outright when someone tries to point out that a strong hold is already in place and places our republic in jeopardy because those wielding the power seem to place the outside interest ahead of American interests, even going so far as saying the interests of both countries are one in the same…always. How can this be? How can American interests always be in lockstep with this other country’s and if the power is so disproportionate, would you be able to tell, or even do something should it become clear, that went against the interests of this country that had such entrenched power? Look at all the forces it could rally in its support telling you the reality you see is not true…government, media, industry, academia, and religious leaders and institutions.

How would you go against this tide? You would be ridiculed, shouted down, or accused of bigotry of the worst sort. Yet that is how the power breaks down. Wildly disproportionate. Acting in unison for the benefit of the outsider nation as opposed to that of America an Americans.

The Muslim menace is a misdirection. Whatever dangers they pose from the outside are nowhere near as perilous as those from the inside.

Keep that in mind as you light your torches and prepare to go forth to seek vengeance. Sometimes the villagers are bamboozled.
