Rep. Allen West: US Security Policy Must Recognize Role of Islamic Ideology in Terrorism

He’s served on the battlefields of Iraq and Afghanistan, but now, freshman Rep. Allen West, R-Fla., is bringing his experiences to the halls of Congress to fight a different kind of battle.

“One of the things that I’ve noticed is that when you cross the Potomac, truth becomes subjective,” West recently told CBN News. “And I will not subscribe to that.”

The latest controversial “truth” West is warning of is the danger of separating Islamic ideology and radical Islamic terrorism.

“Can we really defeat this enemy if we don’t acknowledge the role that Islamic ideology plays in terrorism?” CBN News asked the tea party favorite.

“When you look at the national security strategy, it does not talk about jihadism, does not talk about Islamic terrorism, does not talk about Muslim extremism–as a matter of fact, it talks more about global warming and climate change,” West answered.

“We have to be able to stand up and forthrightly declare there is an ideology out there that’s fueling this thing,“ he said ”You can‘t say this is a ’war on terrorism.’ Terrorism is a tactic, and a nation can’t fight a tactic.”

“And we have to have that dialogue up here in the halls of Congress and among our leadership, or else, we’re just going to head down the road to perdition.”

    Rep, Allen West is awesome. He exhibits the kind of lost leadership values we so desperately need. Go Allen West; Go America; this is all reminiscent of the 60s all over again. We have got to get this right now, folks. Very soon, we won’t have a country. I find it outrageous our servicemen are being killed by Muslims, with no repercussions. Get some guts. Like Allen West.

      West and Christie on the same ticket is like mixing oil and water. DO your homework – Christie appointed a radical Muslim to the NJ Supreme Court. He’s very liberal on most policies except fiscal.

      And, 2 men from the same state could never win – meaning West and Rubio. I love Allen West, and feel we can’t wait for 2016 for him to be ready to be President. Our country is on the brink of destruction.

      He has more experience than obama did, so, he shouldn’t feel inexperienced for the position. He has my vote.

    Allen West is sure gives a “hope” to cling to at this time of insanity in our country where the Attorney General, Holder, speaks of demeaning “his people” if he pursues the Panthers, and will not enforce laws on the books such as, Defense of Marriage Act. We’re using our corn for making fuel instead of needed food, Bernanke is stripping our dollar of any value, Soros pushes for his “open society” and too many don‘t know freedom when they’re living it. They would rather march in the streets and have sleepovers in capitol buildings.
    I hope that he and all of the other “new” Republicans keep working on the budget, but don’t forget the many, many other insults to our freedoms that are growing in number so fast that it’s really hard to keep up.

Christie would not challenge BHO’s Obamacare in court with 28 other states and he is SOFT on illegal immigration. If West runs, he must be the top man on the ticket. I must say, listening to him speak and seeing his convictions, he’s potentially up ther with our greatest leaders. We need a real God fearing hero like this to save our nation from the Islamic Madness that the others in Washington seem to be facilitating.

      Here is a news story that is REALLY going to get you ticked off!

      Free Speech Defeat: Fred Grandy Show Cancelled for Speaking About Islam

      More sharia (Islamic law): this is enforcement of blasphemy laws, do not insult Islam. How much more of our freedoms are we going to allow them to seize?

      James Lafferty wrote:

      WMAL management has caved to CAIR once again! Fred Grandy is off-the-air because he told the truth about jihadists working within America to destroy our government and subjugate all Americans to Islam.

      Stand by for further Atlas action on this.

      VAST

      The Virginia Anti-Shariah Task Force

      Former Congressman Fred Grandy is no longer on WMAL Radio in Washington, DC because he and his wife told the truth about the threat which Shariah and Radical Islam pose to America. Fred Grandy and “Mrs. Fred” interviewed former FBI agents, experts on Shariah law and activists who are fighting radical Islamists in their communities. They told the truth about radical jihadists and their plans to gut the Constitution and destroy America.

      On March 2, 2011, WMAL’s management told Grandy he needed to “tone down” any stories on radical Islam. They also told him his wife, an outspoken critic of Islamist infiltration, could not be included in future programs. Fred Grandy refused to accept those conditions and that was his last day on WMAL radio.

      The Council on American Islamic Relations (CAIR), an unindicted co-conspirator in the federal Holy Land Foundation terror-financing trial, has complained about Grandy’s outspoken criticism of their organization and other radical groups.

      WMAL has a record of yielding to CAIR demands. On two previous occasions, the station removed talk show hosts who had been targeted by CAIR.

      Fred Grandy, the First Amendment and the Truth need your voice.

      Monday (March 7) and Tuesday (March 8) are “Call Out WMAL Days.” From 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. each of those days, please call WMAL at (202) 895-2350 and (202) 686-3100 and tell them you will not listen to their station until Fred and Mrs. Fred Grandy return. America expects radio stations to be committed to free speech and the Truth. We expect WMAL to grow a backbone and stand up to CAIR and the other radicals. Call early and often.

      Then at 10 a.m. Wednesday, we will meet at WMAL’s studios, 4400 Jenifer St. NW, Washington, DC 20015 with signs to demonstrate our support for Fred Grandy and his wife and their courageous stand against radical Islam.

      Here’s another Moos-lim nightmare in America!

      Ohio: Kids Brutally Beaten for being Bad Muslims, Caseworker on Trial for “Violating Rights of Muslim Family”

      Here’s the thing: devout Muslim parents beat the crap (literally) out of their their kids for being “bad Muslims,” and it’s the child case worker who is accused of violating the rights of a Muslim family. Where does this sickness end?

      On a side note, thank G-d they kept the hijabed Heagney off this story.

      Kids beaten for being bad Muslims, caseworker says Boy was beaten for not following Islam closely enough, girls say THE COLUMBUS DISPATCH hat tip Diane

      A Franklin County Children Services worker who is accused of violating the rights of a Muslim family said agency files contain references to their religion because it was a source of conflict between the parents and children.

      Amber Spires told jurors in U.S. District Court that Naim and Hadiya AbdulSalaam’s strict practices were an issue with their children, especially their 16-year-old son, Mandela, who was the first to be placed in foster care, in 2003.

      “That was part of the argument between Mandela and the family,” Spires testified yesterday in the trial of a lawsuit against her. “They are strict, and they are Islamic.”

      Mrs. AbdulSalaam’s attorney, Michael Moore, asked Spires whether she would have noted that a family was “strict Christians.”

      “I might have, yes,” Spires said.

      The caseworker testified that the three teenage daughters told her that their mother and stepfather had stripped Mandela and beaten him until he lost control of his bowels.

      “His sisters specifically told me that he had been disciplined for being a bad Muslim,” Spires testified.

      She also said that, during her first meeting with the girls in May 2003, one asked whether she could remove her headscarf. Spires said she asked whether their mother allowed that, and she explained that she would be truthful if Mrs. AbdulSalaam asked about it.

      After the agency accused the parents of not providing proper education and medical care and forcing the girls to work long hours in the home and family store, the three girls also went into foster care, in July 2003. Spires said Mandela told her the girls also were beaten.

      Mrs. AbdulSalaam, 55, of Grandview Heights, complained to the agency numerous times about the handling of her case. She said the agency refused to find a Muslim foster home, allowed a foster family to take the girls to church, and placed the children in predominately white schools, where they were uncomfortable.

      Spires testified that, even though she was a new caseworker handling a difficult case, she did not worry that she was being unfair. “That did not cause me concern, because I knew I did not do anything discriminatory towards her,” Spires said of Mrs. AbdulSalaam.

      Spires acknowledged that one of the girls ended up singing in her foster family‘s church choir but said the girl wasn’t forced. “We had gone over and over with them (the foster parents) what they could and couldn’t do with these kids because of their religion,” Spires testified. “When we got this information that she was singing in the choir, we were perplexed.”

      Officials have said that the children were raised Christian until Mrs. AbdulSalaam married Mr. AbdulSalaam.

      Mrs. AbdulSalaam should rot in jail!

These very factors might make it hard for him to gain support from the mainstream. While we all here understand the need for someone like this should Mr. West ever decide to run for President his opponent would surly paint him as a war lord. But I hope you will consider a run. I worry about passing on and what will become of our children and their children and so on.

      Mr. West, would you please consider taking on the role of President and again serve your nation in it’s great time of need. We need you leadership, would wisdom, your courage, your honor, your common sense and I pledge to get out and support you in any manner possible. You see I have two children and my first grandchild on the way. I am getting on in years and my greatest fear is the very thing you so clearly see. I pray for someone like yourself to come and help turn my country back to a solid foundation for my children & grandchildren as well all other’s children and grandchildren for all the future generations to come.

      West also has a newsletter you can subscribe to.

      If you have trouble finding him, email me at showtime1313@gmail.com and I’ll send you some links to him.

      Thanks Blazers! So far I like what I see! Have to let the wife know and see what she thinks.
      Either way, when it comes 2012 we need to pick a candidate and stand behind him, and that means all of us Republican’s/Conservatives/Independents.

      I want Rep. West as President. He would probably be the best candidate that could run.

      I have watched him since his campaign started. I also supported him. He has the steadfast convictions and quiet strength we need so desperately today. No more ROCK STAR loosers…We need a MAN.

      I agree. I posted a while back that Christie/West 2012 would be a great ticket. People should research this man, he has a lot of knowledge about the Nation of Islam and he is not afraid to tell people the truth!

      Time to switch gears for me.

      The more I listen to Rep. West I realize he may be the man we need at this very time in history. We are entering the most dangerous time in Americas history. I believe we are about to experience something that will surpass the Civil War in cruelty, brutality, divison, and over-all body count in the country I love. It’s going to require one tough SOB to keep this country together. Not only do we have a world that hates us and wants us destroyed, but we have a growing segment of our own society that wants to help those that want to destroy us.

      Although I am a huge Sarah Palin fan, I am now going to try and help in any way possible to get Allen West to run for president. We need someone like him at the helm and he has a nice basket of choices to pick from a his VP running mate. He would be smart to ask someone like Chris Christie or even Gov. Walker to take the VP slot to help with economic policy.

      Think hard about our next choice long and hard. Our future freedoms depend on it.

      West is a tried and true, dyed in the wool American patriot and Christian. He is the anti-Obama–just the medicine we need to fight the disease Obama and his ilk have infected this nation with. I’d vote for West in a heartbeat if he ran for President.

      One more thing, While Allen West is what we all seem to looking and hoping for in a true leader, a leader who is a patriot, a constitutionalist, and a man of GOD. These very factors might make it hard for him to gain support from the mainstream. While we all here understand the need for someone like this should Mr. West ever decide to run for President his opponent would surly paint him as a war lord. But I hope you will consider a run. I worry about passing on and what will become of our children and their children and so on.

      Mr. West, would you please consider taking on the role of President and again serve your nation in it’s great time of need. We need you leadership, would wisdom, your courage, your honor, your common sense and I pledge to get out and support you in any manner possible. You see I have two children and my first grandchild on the way. I am getting on in years and my greatest fear is the very thing you so clearly see. I pray for someone like yourself to come and help turn my country back to a solid foundation for my children & grandchildren as well all other’s children and grandchildren for all the future generations to come.

      Please consider to serve again giving of yourself for a greater cause and I will do all I can to support you sir.

      Respectfully, Your servant,supporter and fellow Patriot

      I couldn’t of said it better, so I won’t try.
