[zelda]

That was beautiful.

[Thoreaujr]

That was Amazing! Thanks for sharing.

[Brandy]

Just what I needed today. Restores my faith in common sense and courage. What a woman!

[Stephanie]

A brave woman in Frankfurt am Main (Germany)

[Kate]

Oh that we would all be so moved to courage and conviction!!! Let us remember her and be BOLD against the evil and madness.

[Stephanie]

She was as a protester of the rally of the salafist Pierre Vogel (true Muslim)

God, I love this woman. We need 100,000 more like her. I'd like to see a republican with this kind of "spit and vinegar". We (Americans) have become so fat and passive. As long as we have "Dancing with the Stars" and "American Idol", nobody seems to care what is happening right under their noses.

[Ron Morgen]

I can see some of the prophets and preachers of the past speaking with such power. To me it is very inspiring to see her boldness. Did you see the guy grab her arm and then the policeman his at 31 sec?

[sDee]

She is not angry at the Islamofacists - her anger is at her countymen. She shames them.

Regardless of what we say about the Islamist supremacists and the quisling politicians who align with them, it is we the citizens who must rise up or it will not be stopped.

[wri7913]

We are seeing more and more women who are standing up and speaking out. I'm am glad to see this but we also need to see more men stand up along side them. The more men and women who stand by people like this, then the Salafists/wahhabists/jihadists will wither and die. Their ideas will no longer be welcome.

[Kafir]

A comment from that post:
"Muslims are the Borg of Earth religions. They worship a cube, they want to assimilate the world into their toxic regime, if you don't want assimilations, you face death (suicide bombers)and they are always taking over, quadrant by quadrant, encroaching into other lands and sending scouts, breeders, troopers and finally, hives are established (mosques and/or "Islamic community centers") and social and political assimilation begins of host nation to Borg (Muslim) principles"."

[Morty62]

It gave me chills to see it. We SHOULD be ashamed. Our forefathers drove them back twice before at great cost and now we throw open the gates and invite them in. She is channeling the voice of Charles Martel and Nicholas, Count of Salm. We had better listen.

[Morty62]

This is as succinct and accurate a description of what we face as I've read.

[Morty62]

I actually meant this post ..excellent observation.

[Livingengine]

Anti-jihad women are HOT!!

[gullah]

I've been speaking out against them and now I fear one has moved in next door to me.

[Andy Lewis]

"Germany rise up," she said. Hey, what could go wrong?

[Underzog]

Cry in the darkness? Voice of reason? She reminds me of someone.

Maybe that German woman will start a website called Atlas Zuckt mit den Schultern or sumping.

[Charles Martel]

By her looks she is a late post-war baby boomer, and know all about totalitarian regimes.
It chilled me to the bone when she referred to the likeness to Hitler of the speaker.

But it's good. People are starting to stir.

[Nat's daughter]

I hope this German warrior woman reads Atlas. If you do, please let us know. You are not alone and G-D bless you for having the Chutzpah to speak up.

[Timm84]

Though I am a star wars, not star trek fan, that is a oddly true description.

[denise]

The have already taken over many cities in Michigan. Once they are elected to Public Office, it will spread. They use our Bill of Rights against us, what can be done, without denying them freedom of religion. They will beat this country to death with the Bill of Rights.

[denise]

Soon, voices like her's will be silenced. The woman should be afraid for her own safety now, Muslim men are bastards to women.

[denise]

Have PIG ROASTS THIS SUMMER. You have to complain about them first, they always seem to get the upper hand. Start making complains privately, your in fear of your life.

[telly]

"brave woman"
Yes! Very brave. She is not protected by the First Amendment. As far as I know she can be prosecuted for hurting the feelings of the Muslims.

[Jeff]

UNLESS MORE FOLKS ORGANISE , PROTEST LOUDLY AGAINST THE SHARIA AND
ISLAMISATION BY THIS NON-SECULAR DEATH CULT DAYS OF WESTERN CIVILISATION
ARE NUMBERED.

POLITICOS ONLY WATCH AND REACT MOT WON'T LEAD ...ITS ORDINARY FOLKS
WHO NEED TO ORGANISE AS A GROUP AND TAKE TO THE STREETS, CALL IN THE PRESS
AND INFORM THE POLICE AND KEEP IT LOUD AND KEEP IT NON-VIOLENT.

TIME TO SIT BEHIND PC AND WRITING IN BLOGS WON'T HELP.

PROTEST , INFORM YOUR REPRESENTATIVE , ASK THEM WHAT THEY ARE DOING ABOUT
IT .....WARN THEM POLITELY YOU AND YOUR GROUP WILL NOT VOTE FOR THEM
IF THEY DON'T SPEAK OUT FOR CONSTITUTIONAL RIGHTS OF NON-MUSLIMS
AND BAN ISLAM AS IT IS A CULT NOT A RELIGION.

TAKE THE VENEER OF RELIGION , ITS NO DIFFERENT THAN FASCIST CULT LIKE
NAZISM OR KKK.

[Rita]

This woman makes me proud to be German and Woman. But I also fear for her,(as I fear for Pamela, Hirsi Ali, Robert Spencer, Geert Wilder and their courageous ilk): have you seen how this nasty Muslim, 3 ugly heads higher than her, tried to bully her, and he even TOUCHED her. I feel I need a shower even watching this!

But, unfortunately, she is right in shaming my compatriots: where are the voices shouting out loudly: NEVER AGAIN!! Where are the voices saying NO to this new version of the "Heil Hitler" cry which now is "Allah Akbar" (never mind the spelling).!! Why are we all saying "yes" by remaining silent?

Yes, I know, Germany is not the only country in which this cancer of Islamisation is growing, and it is not the only country in which the majority is cowardly silent, but I feel that as Germans, having let Hitler in once with the consequences that we all know, we must be fighting EVIL more than anyone else.

As this brave woman cried out: NEVER AGAIN !!!

[D'vorah]

Who is she? I want to invite her to my house as my guest. I got the chills when she compared them (him) to hitler...she should know; she was probably born about 10-15 years after the war. And, even more chilling, she used the expression we Jews use to remind the world that a Holocaust will never happen again "Nie Weider." (Never Again.) Who knows, by some irony maybe it will be the Germans who will once again "steh auf" (stand/get up) and feel their nationalistic pride (but in a good way, G-D Forbid not the way it was in 1933)and save the world from all this Dhimmi madness. I bet the Germans could do it, they were the original Barbarians (the ancient Germanic Tribes) who were instrumental in toppling and defeating the Roman Empire. The Germans are a warring class by nature, however, now we need them to channel their war-like inclinations into something really productive and use that warring energy to save us all from these muslim savages. What other nation in Europe is doing anything? Certainly not the French and their faux Burqua bans...please! I'm a bit confused though, who was it that was telling her to "cease" what she was screaming? He was shouting it in very common German slang. He never said the word provocation. He kept shouting at this woman "her auf damit" which almost literally translated means "Stop it" or "Cut it out." Was it her fellow Germans? muslims? I'm unclear about this, and I'd really like to know.

[D'vorah]

Actually, it also means "Give it up." Hard to translate slang. It certainly wasn't "Hoch-Deutsch" High-German, wished I was there. What a moment that would have been! I would have been right in there with her!

[Paladion]

Unless women takes the lead, there won't be any light at the end of the tunnel. This lady is just remarkable. A lot of love for her!.

[Paladion]

Unless women takes note of the drama in front of Europe, and assume the lead, we won't find the light at the end of the tunnel. This lady is a true Walkyria. Europe need just a few like her. A lot of love and good luck.

[Rita]

In this link the video is a bit longer and shows the old goat who shouts at the heroine: "hoer' auf damit". I have the impression that he is a Muslim - at least that's what he says to the woman who confronts him at the end of the tape "Es gibt auch deutsche Musleme". His german, while not "educated" sounds native, so he might be one of the German born Turks or other muslims.

Ann Barnhardt cares - not to mention Pamela. it seems women are bolder than men these days.

[sDee]

"nobody seems to care what is happening right under their noses"

There are those that see what is happening and do not care. Most Western politicians and the media executives fall into that category. Many of those even support it.

Most "regular citizens" do not know or even know where to look. Whenever I relay any of the atrocities and realities I read here at Atlas Shrugs, I get the eye rolls, the denials, the "you're an insane bigot look". When I press people on why the do not believe these things are happening, the usual answer is something like "because if it were that bad, if it were true, if that was really going on, I would have seen it on the news".

The trust in our media (traditional and internet) astounds me. What astounds me more is how those who inherently distrust the media still want to believe that even the most bias of media would rush to cover these atrocities and this subversion if really happening.

[KimH]

You're exactly right.

[KimH]

I'm very politically active as a conservative and Christian, especially against the encroaching Socialist/Marxists in our govt. and the threat of Sharia law/Islam. My husband on the other hand, considers himself a "centrist" and would rather watch TV or play video games. He thinks I'm crazy and that it would never happen here...

It's so frustrating! I just want to shout "Stand up! Be a real man!"

I guess the "chickification" of society over the past 30 years is now coming back to bite us.

[KimH]

That's great!

[Mac-101]

Glad to see this. I've been preachin for years now that women, being more inclusive and feelin have allowed Western Civilization to decay. A balance between a Patriarc and Matriarc society needs to be established. As ALL balances it is difficult to maintain.

We see now that males (not men) are happy to set back and Hit it and Quit it and allow the women to be liberated and raise what children that are not apported. Males have become women. Females WILL NEED to become the Lioness/Grizzly Mommas again and insure their pride are safe. If the penduleum isn't to swing back to a regressive MALE dominated Islamic Society the women and GAYS better pick up the fight. Real men kknow the deal. 57% or more of the votes are women.

I know many will not like this, but is just one ole man's observation. Keep up the fight Atlas, I'm out their supportin ya daily like the rest of us ALL NEED to DO! We ALL need to be Paul Reveres now about the Islamic theat and the threat from da BANKSTERS and the New World Order which are usin these Muslims to destabilize the West.

[poetcomic1]

She is SO not cool. How embarrassing.

[Account Deleted]

"embarrassing" for whom?

Only for those traitors ready to surrender to the islamosocialist abomination. Shame on you, poetcomic1!

[poetcomic1]

Sorry! No sense of humor?

[Radegunda]

sDee, your comments remind me of the way even some "conservatives" in the media will say things like: "Any journalist would just LOVE to be the one to break a huge story about the president. It would make his/her career! Therefore, if there's anything really bad in Obama's past, they'll find it and report it! And since they haven't reported it, those bad things can't be true. QED."

It's astonishing when "conservatives" deny the obvious fact that Dems in the media are completely willing to bury a big story that hurts their ideological agenda (and to fabricate stories that advance their agenda). The people who dominate the mass media today are not primarily in the fact-reporting, truth-telling business. Most of them believe that journalism is supposed to serve the purpose of changing society.

[Account Deleted]

Only when it's funny.

[Jeff]

One swallow does not mean spring is here. Its really autumn leading
to islamic winter unless dhimmis wake up fight/protest on the streets
and make your elected reps toe the line you want or recall them
or threaten to vote them out for being cowards and not defending
secular constitution against islamo-fascists.

I would think you're just a comic but comedy is not allowed in islam--be careful. Oh, and you know what moHAMmad did to poets, don't ya? He stabbed one of them while she was breast feeding her baby. F you poetcomic

[Debi Brand]

"nobody seems to care what is happening right under their noses."

Precisely.

In aiming to grasp the challenge we have on our hands with respect to Muhammad’s Nation amongst us, consider the following scenario:

Say, you owned a section of land. Say, being kind and generous, learning of certain individuals who were, let’s say homeless; you offer them a place on the section to “set up camp.”

You then go about your business. A few days later, you happen past the sight. To your amazement you find, they have erected apartment buildings to house the thousands of their brethren who now have also moved into our country and onto your section.

What’s more, they’ve built a mosque, a school to allow them and their brethren, and their children to hold fast to their religion. They’ve also set up run of barracks, obstacle courses, running tracks, shooting ranges, installed a swimming pool to facilitate the training of their Troops--on your land, mind you.

Now, even as you watch them, they are still expanding their “community,” steadily, steadily encroaching on the perimeters of your back yard; clearly, to say the least cramping the comforts you once knew as home.

What would you do? What action you take?

That there, guys, the sad facts of basically the challenge we have on our hands with respect to the Ummah of Muhammad living here amongst us—which, as is so with all nations, so it is with “Ahmad’s”--included in it, their Armed Forces.

We have devotees to Allah serving in our government; they help plan and decide our wars, they counsel and train our Soldiers, they help decide our ROE, so too, the courses taught and curriculum used in our schools.

That is fact. What’s more, those facts are so because fools from both the Left and the Right are willingly blind and cowardly when faced with the facts on Islam and the adherents to it.

[Radegunda]

Didn't Italy rule that Islam is not accurately defined as a religion? We need more people with the clarity of mind to say that Islam is a political ideology with external trappings of religion. We can even use Muslims' own words to make the case. They have said things like "We don't call Islam a religion like other religions, because it's really a total way of life."

Let's take them at their word, then, and follow through on the argument: Islam does not merit religious-freedom protection.

[Radegunda]

Yes, and don't let the multi-cultis get away with the vile lie that "Muslims are the new Jews" and that standing up to Islam is like being a Nazi.

[Radegunda]

"Lie down and let the Muslims take over," you say. Hey, what could go wrong?

[Radegunda]

It can be hard to detect irony in pithy written remarks, especially when some people post silly comments completely in earnest (see "Andy Lewis" above).

INTRODUCTION

Every September, I recall that is now more than 65 years since I landed
at Nagasaki with the 2nd Marine Division in the original occupation of
Japan following World War II. This time every year, I have watched
and listened to the light-hearted "peaceniks" and their light-headed
symbolism-without-substance of ringing bells, flying pigeons, floating
candles, and sonorous chanting and I recall again that "Peace is not a
cause - it is an effect."

In July, 1945, my fellow 8th RCT Marines [I was an ARman] and I returned to
Saipan following the successful conclusion of the Battle of Okinawa. We were
issued new equipment and replacements joined each outfit in preparation for
our coming amphibious assault on the home islands of Japan.

B-29 bombing had leveled the major cities of Japan, including Kobe, Osaka,
Nagoya, Yokohama, Yokosuka, and Tokyo.

We were informed we would land three Marine divisions and six Army
divisions, perhaps abreast, with large reserves following us in. It was
estimated that it would cost half a million casualties to subdue the
Japanese homeland.

In August, the A-bomb was dropped on Hiroshima but the Japanese government
refused to surrender. Three days later a second A-bomb was dropped on the
city of Nagasaki. The Imperial Japanese government finally surrendered.

Following the 1941 sneak attack on Pearl Harbor, a Japanese admiral said, "I
fear all we have done is to awaken a sleeping giant..." Indeed, they had.
Not surprisingly, the atomic bomb was produced by a free people functioning
in a free environment. Not surprisingly because the creative process is a
natural human choice-making process and inventiveness occurs most readily
where choice-making opportunities abound. America!

Tamper with a giant, indeed! Tyrants, beware: Free men are nature's pit
bulls of Liberty! The Japanese learned the hard way what tyrants of any
generation should know: Never start a war with a free people - you never
know what they may invent!

As a newly assigned member of a U.S. Marine intelligence section, I
had a unique opportunity to visit many major cities of Japan, including
Tokyo and Hiroshima, within weeks of their destruction. For a full year I
observed the beaches, weapons, and troops we would have assaulted had
the A-bombs not been dropped. Yes, it would have been very destructive
for all, but especially for the people of Japan.

When we landed in Japan, for what came to be the finest and most humane
occupation of a defeated enemy in recorded history, it was with great
appreciation, thanksgiving, and praise for the atomic bomb team, including
the aircrew of the Enola Gay. A half million American homes had been spared
the Gold Star flag, including, I'm sure, my own.

Whenever I hear the apologists expressing guilt and shame for A-bombing and
ending the war Japan had started (they ignore the cause-effect relation
between Pearl Harbor and Nagasaki), I have noted that neither the effete
critics nor the puff-adder politicians are among us in the assault
landing-craft or the stinking rice paddies of their suggested alternative,
"conventional" warfare. Stammering reluctance is obvious and continuous, but
they do love to pontificate about the Rights that others, and the Bomb, have
bought and preserved for them.

The vanities of ignorance and camouflaged cowardice abound as license for
the assertion of virtuous "rights" purchased by the blood of others - those
others who have borne the burden and physical expense of Rights whining
apologists so casually and self-righteously claim.

At best, these fakers manifest a profound and cryptic ignorance of causal
relations, myopic perception, and dull I.Q. At worst, there is a word and
description in The Constitution defining those who love the enemy more than
they love their own countrymen and their own posterity. Every Yankee Doodle
Dandy knows what that word is.

In 1945, America was the only nation in the world with the Bomb and it
behaved responsibly and respectfully. It remained so until two among us
betrayed it to the Kremlin. Still, this American weapon system has been the
prime deterrent to earth's latest model world- tyranny: Seventy years of
Soviet collectivist definition, coercion, and domination of individual human
beings.

The message is this: Trust Freedom. Remember, tyrants never learn. The
restriction of Freedom is the limitation of human choice, and choice is the
fulcrum-point of the creative process in human affairs. As earth's
choicemaker, it is our human identity on nature's beautiful blue planet and
the natural premise of man's free institutions, environments, and respectful
relations with one another. Made in the image of our Creator, free men
choose, create, and progress - or die.

Free men should not fear the moon-god-crowd oppressor nor choose any of his
ways. Recall with a confident Job and a victorious David, "Know ye not you
are in league with the stones of the field?"

The Human Paradigm: Earth's Choicemaker Psalm 25:12

Consider: The missing element in every human 'solution' is an accurate
definition of the creature.

In an effort to diminish the multiple and persistent dangers and abuses
which have characterized the affairs of man in his every Age, and to assist
in the requisite search for human identity, it is essential to perceive and
specify that distinction which naturally and most uniquely defines the human
being.

Because definitions rule in the minds, behaviors, and institutions of men,
we can be confident that delineating and communicating that quality will
assist the process of resolution and the courageous ascension to which
man is called. As Americans of the 21st Century, we are obliged and
privileged to join our forebears and participate in this continuing
paradigm proclamation.

"WHAT IS MAN...?" God asks - and answers:
HUMAN DEFINED: EARTH'S CHOICEMAKER
by James Fletcher Baxter (c) 2011 AD

The way we define 'human' determines our view of self, others,
relationships, institutions, life, and future. Many problems in human
experience are the result of false and inaccurate definitions of humankind
premised in man-made religions and humanistic philosophies.

Human knowledge is a fraction of the whole universe. The balance is a vast
void of human ignorance. Human reason cannot fully function in such a void;
thus, the intellect can rise no higher than the criteria by which it perceives and
measures values.

Humanism makes man his own standard of measure. However, as with all
measuring systems, a standard must be greater than the value measured. Based
on preponderant ignorance and an egocentric carnal nature, humanism demotes
reason to the simpleton task of excuse-making in behalf of the rule of
appetites, desires, feelings, emotions, - and glands.

Because man, hobbled in an ego-centric predicament, cannot invent criteria
greater than himself, the humanist lacks a predictive capability. Thus, his
man-made criteria rises no higher than eyebrows - and too often, no higher
than pubic hair! Without instinct or transcendent criteria, humanism cannot
evaluate options with foresight and vision for progression and survival.
Lacking foresight, man is blind to potential consequence and is unwittingly
committed to mediocrity, collectivism, averages, and regression - and worse.
Humanism is an unworthy worship.

The void of human ignorance can easily be filled with a functional faith
while not-so-patiently awaiting the foot-dragging growth of human knowledge
and behavior. Faith, initiated by the Creator and revealed and validated in
His Word, the Bible, brings a transcendent standard to man the choice-maker.
Other philosophies and religions are man-made, humanism, and thereby lack
what only the Bible has:

1.Transcendent Criteria and
2.Fulfilled Prophetic Validation.

The vision of faith in God and His Word is survival equipment for today and
the future. Only the Creator, who made us in His own image, is qualified to
define us accurately.

Human is earth's Choicemaker. Psalm 25:12 He is by nature and nature's
God a creature of Choice - and of Criteria. Psalm 119:30,173 His unique and
definitive characteristic is, and of Right ought to be, the natural
foundation of his environments, institutions, and respectful relations to
his fellow-man. Thus, he is oriented to a Freedom whose roots are in the
Order of the universe. selah

At the sub-atomic level of the physical universe quantum physics indicates a
multifarious gap or division in the causal chain; particles to which
position cannot be assigned at all times, systems that pass from one energy
state to another without manifestation in intermediate states, entities
without mass, fields whose substance is as insubstantial as "a probability."

Only statistical conglomerates pay tribute to deterministic forces.
Singularities do not and are therefore random, unpredictable, mutant, and in
this sense, uncaused. The finest contribution inanimate reality is capable
of making toward choice, without its own selective agencies, is this
continuing manifestation of opportunity as the pre-condition to choice it
defers to the natural action of living forms.

Biological science affirms that each level of life, single-cell to man
himself, possesses attributes of sensitivity, discrimination, and
selectivity, and in the exclusive and unique nature of each diversified life
form.

The survival and progression of life forms has all too often been dependent
upon the ever-present undeterminative potential and appearance of one unique
individual organism within the whole spectrum of a given life-form. Only the
uniquely equipped individual organism is, like The Golden Wedge of Ophir,
capable of traversing the causal gap to survival and progression. Mere
reproductive determinacy would have rendered life forms incapable of such
potential.

Only a moving universe of opportunity plus choice enables the present
reality.

Each individual human being possesses a unique, highly developed, and
sensitive perception of variety. Thus aware, man is endowed with a natural
capability for enacting internal mental and external physical selectivity.
Quantitative and qualitative choice-making thus lends itself as the superior
basis of an active intelligence.

Human is earth's Choicemaker. His title describes his definitive and
typifying characteristic. Recall that his other features are but vehicles of
experience intent on the development of perceptive awareness and the
following acts of decision and choice. Note that the products of man cannot
define him for they are the fruit of the discerning choicemaking process and
include the cognition of self, the utility of experience, the development of
value measuring systems and language, and the acculturation of
civilization.

The arts and the sciences of man, as with his habits, customs, and
traditions, are the creative harvest of his perceptive and selective powers.
Creativity, the creative process, is a choice-making process. His articles,
constructs, and commodities, however marvelous to behold, deserve neither
awe nor idolatry, for man, not his contrivance, is earth's own highest
expression of the creative process.

Human is earth's Choicemaker. The sublime and significant act of choosing
is, itself, the Archimedean fulcrum upon which man levers and redirects the
forces of cause and effect to an elected level of quality and diversity.
Further, it orients him toward a natural environmental opportunity, freedom,
and bestows earth's paradigm title, The Choicemaker, on his singular and
plural brow.

In the Bible, God's Word has accurately defined the human being as
'the earth creature endowed with the ability to choose.' His natural Rights,
therefore, are merely an extension and application of natural human
endowments, which all humans - everywhere in the world - possess.

Even as goldfish, canaries, and puppy dogs require an environment
based on their natural features, so humans require external freedom
to fulfill their natural internal abilities of decision, choice, selection,
election, and consent. Uniquely, America was founded on this definitive
paradigm in human nature. All nations should reject foundational human
opinion that teaches otherwise.

Deterministic systems, ideological symbols of abdication by man from his
natural role as earth's Choicemaker, inevitably degenerate into
collectivism; the negation of singularity, they become a conglomerate
plural-based system of measuring human value. Blunting an awareness of
diversity, blurring alternatives, and limiting the selective creative
process, they are self-relegated to a passive and circular regression.

Tampering with man's selective nature endangers his survival for it would
render him impotent and obsolete by denying the tools of variety,
individuality, perception, criteria, selectivity, and progress. Coercive
attempts produce revulsion, for such acts are contrary to an indeterminate
nature and nature's indeterminate off-spring, man the Choicemaker.

Until the oppressors discover that wisdom only just begins with a respectful
acknowledgment of The Creator, The Creation, and The Choicemaker, they will
be ever learning but never coming to a knowledge of the truth. The rejection of
Creator-initiated standards relegates the mind of man to its own primitive,
empirical, and delimited devices. It is thus that the human intellect cannot
ascend and function at any level higher than the criteria by which it
perceives and measures values.

Additionally, such rejection of transcendent criteria self-denies man the
vision and foresight essential to decision-making for survival and
progression. He is left, instead, with the redundant wreckage of expensive
hind sight, including human institutions characterized by averages,
mediocrity, and regression.

Humanism, mired in the circular and mundane egocentric predicament, is
ill-equipped to produce transcendent criteria. Evidenced by those who do not
perceive superiority and thus find themselves beset by the shifting winds of
the carnal-ego; i.e., moods, feelings, desires, appetites, etc., the mind
becomes subordinate: a mere device for excuse-making and rationalizing
self-justification.

The carnal-ego rejects criteria and self-discipline for such instruments are
tools of the mind and the attitude. The appetites of the flesh have no need
of standards for at the point of contention standards are perceived as
alien, restrictive, and inhibiting. Yet, the very survival of our physical
nature itself depends upon a maintained sovereignty of the mind and of the
spirit.

It remained, therefore, to the initiative of a personal and living Creator
to traverse the human horizon and fill the vast void of human ignorance
with an intelligent and definitive faith. Man is thus afforded the prime
tool of the intellect - a Transcendent Standard by which he may measure
values in experience, anticipate results, and make enlightened and visionary
choices.

Only the unique and superior God-man Person can deservedly displace the
ego-person from his predicament and free the individual to measure values
and choose in a more excellent way. That sublime Person was indicated in the
words of the prophet Amos, "...said the Lord, Behold,

I will set a plumbline in the midst of my people Israel." Y'shua Mashiyach
Jesus said, "If I be lifted up I will draw all men unto myself."

As long as some choose to abdicate their personal reality and submit to the
delusions of humanism, determinism, and collectivism, just so long will they
be subject and re-acting only, to be tossed by every impulse emanating from
others. Those who abdicate such reality may, in perfect justice, find
themselves weighed in the balances of their own choosing.

That human institution which is structured on the principle, "...all men are
endowed by their Creator with...Liberty...," is a system with its roots in
the natural Order of the universe. The opponents of such a system are
necessarily engaged in a losing contest with nature and nature's God.
Biblical principles are still today the foundation under Western
Civilization and the American way of life. To the advent of a new season we
commend the present generation and the "multitudes in the valley of
decision."

Let us proclaim it. Behold!

CONTEMPORARY COMMENTS
"I should think that if there is one thing that man has learned about
himself it is that he is a creature of choice." Richard M. Weaver

"Man is a being capable of subduing his emotions and impulses; he can
rationalize his behavior. He arranges his wishes into a scale, he chooses;
in short, he acts. What distinguishes man from beasts is precisely that he
adjusts his behavior deliberately." Ludwig von Mises

"To make any sense of the idea of morality, it must be presumed that the
human being is responsible for his actions and responsibility cannot be
understood apart from the presumption of freedom of choice." John
Chamberlain

"The advocate of liberty believes that it is complementary of the orderly
laws of cause and effect, of probability and of chance, of which man is not
completely informed. It is complementary of them because it rests in part
upon the faith that each individual is endowed by his Creator with the power
of individual choice." Wendell J. Brown

"These examples demonstrate a basic truth -- that human dignity is embodied
in the free choice of individuals." Condoleeza Rice

"Our Founding Fathers believed that we live in an ordered universe. They
believed themselves to be a part of the universal order of things. Stated
another way, they believed in God. They believed that every man must find
his own place in a world where a place has been made for him. They sought
independence for their nation but, more importantly, they sought freedom for
individuals to think and act for themselves. They established a republic
dedicated to one purpose above all others - the preservation of individual
liberty..." Ralph W. Husted

"We have the gift of an inner liberty so far-reaching that we can choose
either to accept or reject the God who gave it to us, and it would seem to
follow that the Author of a liberty so radical wills that we should be
equally free in our relationships with other men. Spiritual liberty
logically demands conditions of outer and social freedom for its
completion." Edmund A. Opitz

"Above all I see an ability to choose the better from the worse that has
made possible life's progress." Charles Lindbergh

"Freedom is the Right to Choose, the Right to create for oneself the
alternatives of Choice. Without the possibility of Choice, and the exercise
of Choice, a man is not a man but a member, an instrument, a thing." Thomas
Jefferson

I saw that too! There seemed to be a muslim man grabbing her arm to make her be quite and the cop stopped him. They looked shocked that a woman was so bold. I was sorry to see some Germans watching but remaining silent to her protest again the evil talk.

"I am German and I amso sorry that someone like him can stand here and speak like hitler."

Amazing and wonderful woman!!!

[segregation now]

The subject intimadating and threatening this brave lady is most probably a muslim. Guessing a turk(ey). He just doesn't attack her because a policeman stands only a few metres away.

[FreeSpirit]

Hello D'vorah, you did aksed who said "hör auf damit". It was the tall turkish guy, who said that and it means "Stop that" regarding her teling the truth.
I assume those muslims who surrounded her, had no clue what to do about her, they were basically speechless, they did not expect that. Without police they probably would have killed her, but the police was there and protected her well and it seamed to me that they agreed with her too.
Most Muslims I know are full of themselfs, they are so arrogant they dont see it coming. In other words, they will strike to early to soon and then they will get crushed and wonder how that all could happen, if you know what i mean.
I want to thank you for your nice words about germany and you are right, we might have a chance to make up, I know thats not really possible, but I pray to God that germany will play a positive role in all of this. A poll in germany says that about 87% reject islam (yet way too silent) and 67% think they should actually fight islam.
If you want to know what I think about my fellow germany, here it is: The germans are absolutely fed up with the muslims, a couply more year down the road and maybe a terror atack on germany soil will probably ignite the worrior spirit you talked about, but I am also afraid that it could get very ugly, for the muslims that is.
I hope that was helpful. God bless.

[Sergeant]

The Guys said "hör auf damit"(Cut it out) and even "Halt die Schnautze" which means "Shut the fuck up"!
All of them were "peacefully" Muslims!

May be it is G-s locust as some sort of retribution ?

When a liberal raises their voice and interrupts tea party rallies I've seen you people slam them saying they were trying to drown you out and take away your free speech.

You people are such evil fascist hypocrites.

Arid Uka, the 21-year-old Kosovar who has admitted to killing two US airmen in Frankfurt in March, is thought to have established contact to radical Islamist preachers including Vogel before the shooting.

[Mark]

What a hell are you talking about? Who are "such evil fascist hypocrites"?

[Radegunda]

Johnny, all you "liberals" (i.e. leftists) have a long and sordid history of trying to squelch any speech you disagree with: trying to get people off the air; news censorship; physically attacking speakers and screaming over them; etc. Conservatives don't do that.

The German woman was asking why public incitement to racist violence was being tolerated. I thought you leftists didn't like incitement to violence. A little while ago you were all sputtering in outrage because conservatives dared to criticize Democrat policies and you all said we needed to shut up because it caused people to be violent.

You're a cynical hypocrite. And if you think we're the "evil fascists," why don't you try living under Islamic rule for a while.

[Johnsfigurings]

I am ALL FOR incitement to violence... In fact, if you birthers get one of the states to pass a birther bill and end up disenfranchising voters over your lies, I honestly think we should murder you all.

Hi Pamela fans,

I am the one who introduced this video to Pamela a couple days ago. I am publisher of LibertarianRepublican.net.

Jim Right Guy and I have produced a new version of this video set to a powerful instantly recognized new wave pop song from the 1980s. It's already got 3,000 views on YouTube.

Hope you all will check it out.

P.S. I know what you're thinking. We at LR love Ron Paul on domestic issues, absolutely can't stand him on foreign policy/Israel.

[Radegunda]

Behold, the true voice of the Left-- violent and hateful. No wonder you like Islam so much. You think this way: "If we don't get our way, we'll kill you. If you say something about us that makes us look bad, even if it's true -- especially if it's true -- we'll kill you."

Nobody is "disenfranchised" by a requirement to demonstrate constitutional eligibility to run for the highest office in the land. Everybody would still have a right to vote for anyone who is CONSTITUTIONALLY eligible for office.

Leftists DO NOT BELIEVE they should have to follow the same laws that conservatives follow -- as the egregious Johnny demonstrates. The DO NOT BELIEVE they should respect OUR rights, include our rights to physical safety.

[Johnsfigurings]

Go ahead and take Obama off the ballot. See how many birthers DIE over it. Mark my words, it won't end up GOOD for you.

And political correctness!
