Al Qaeda funded by 12 men

This could be big news. According to WorldTribune.com, the U.S. has found that Al Qaida is supported by only 12 financiers, most of them Saudis. This unexpectedly small number of backers could make it easier to cut off Al Qaeda’s funding. The U.S. is now seeking to coordinate efforts with European countries to freeze the assets of the terrorist financiers.

I have a different suggestion. Most of these 12 financiers are probably legitimate businessmen or members of the Saudi royal family who live and work in the open. Why not just find each of these men, whether they’re in Saudi Arabia or stopping by one of their European palaces at the moment, and kill them?

A bit off the topic of financiers, but I found a website of the Islamic Youth Movement of Australia at http://www.islam.org.au

It gives an interesting perspective from the Muslim side of things. One of the more curious articles was titled “The Liberation of Constantinople” which celebrated the fall of the city which had “stood stubbornly in front of the Muslims for eight centuries” and whose demise opened “the doors of Europe for the call of Islam.”

Another article pronounced suicide bombings to be legitimately Islamic, whilst another declared nationalism to be an “erroneous concept” as within Islam bonds based on tribe, race or gender were forbidden as “love and hate is only for the sake of Allah”.

The attitude to white Australians was not exactly complimentary; we were described at one point as the offspring of criminal dregs.

“Another article pronounced suicide bombings to be legitimately Islamic, whilst another declared nationalism to be an ‘erroneous concept’ as within Islam bonds based on tribe, race or gender were forbidden as ‘love and hate is only for the sake of Allah’.”

And rightists complain about *Christianity* being too universalistic! At least Paul didn’t declare Jewishness and Greekness false concepts; he said Jew and Greek, insofar as they followed Christ, were one in Christ. As in Jesus’ pronouncement on Caesar and God, Christianity allows for a layered hierarchy of earthly and spiritual allegiances. But with Islam all allegiances but one are stripped away; all tribes and nations are outlawed because by their very existence they stand against the only true and legitimate tribe which is Islam, and anyone outside that tribe deserves death. Islam is totalitarian genocidal tribalism.

In this Pipes article are outlined the multi-culti joys that await white-Euro-Christian- (and other white-Euro-) Americans following the coming transformation of this country into the long-promised, neocon-approved, multi-culti paradise.

How U.S. white-Euro-Christian élites, such as the entire Bush family, and William F. Buckley Jr., for example, can favor such suicidal immigration has got to be the mystery of the century if not of the millennium.

Jewish-American élites who favor excessive immigration of incompatible ethnicities and cultures (Steven Steinlight, Jonah Goldberg, and Ben Wattenberg, for example) must have the gene that makes moths keep flying into candle flames — that very same gene.

I would be interested in reading a source that outlines the issues regarding the diminishment of a white euro centric culture in the US (or anywhere else for that matter.) Preferably an overview with links to related further reading. I have read many of the essays on the counter-revolution page and there are a few things I don’t understand. Clearly if such a thing takes place it won’t be in our lifetime. And even if the euro centric cultural population becomes a numeric minority in the US there it will be sometime still before any single rival culture equals WEC culture in numbers or political power. So my questions are two and I beg your indulgence, as after reading this board for only a few weeks I am not as familiar with the issues involved. First, if WEC culture vanishes off the face of the earth, so what? Over the millennia different cultures and even different species have dominated the earth. Other then a Root-for-the-home-team esthetic what is inherently important about the continued legacy of WEC Culture.

Second, since the one of the root values is self reliance and personal responsibility, isn’t it counter productive to intentionally have more children than you can afford to raise especially given the increasing shortage of solid middle class job opportunities? Each family must have at least three kids for the population to grow marginally. With job skills sets that pay a premium wage becoming obsolete at an ever-increasing rate, it seems to me a lot to ask of anyone to take on the responsibility of raising many children while facing a job market that has a two or three-year horizon at best. Of course you could ask people to work hard and sacrifice all their lives in order to raise children, but your going to need to provide more in the way of motivation then some abstract notions of the preservation of white euro centric culture.

Rick,
Shouldn’t you be solving someones incompetence induced software problems? Actually Pat Buchannen address’s all those questions in his latest book, but I can’t remeber what it’s called. Sorry.
