The U.S. should support Israel because God does

With controversy swirling over Speaker John Boehner's invitation to Bibi Netanyahu to address Congress over the vigorous objections of the White House, and President Obama's evident antipathy toward Israel and sympathy toward Islamic kingdoms, it's worth revisiting the issue American support for Israel.
(President Obama's recent decision to attend the coronation of the new Saudi king rather than the 70th anniversary commemoration of the liberation of Auschwitz is a telling sign that his sympathies seem to lie more with the Muslim world than with Israel.)
Numerous articles in recent years have chronicled what writers identify as diminishing support for Israel among American evangelicals.

So should America and American evangelicals stand with Israel?
As I have written before, there are many reasons for the United States to support Israel. One is our longstanding history as a nation with the Jewish people. Judaism has always been – until this recent flood of Muslim immigrants – America's second religion, after Christianity.

Israel is the only democracy in the Middle East, which is reason alone to stand with her. She has been a staunch ally of the US since the earliest days of her modern founding, and simple friendship and loyalty dictate that we return the favor.
And unlike the Muslim nations which surround Israel, Israel does not want to destroy the United States.
The Palestinian Authority has given the U.S. no reason to trust it or to believe that any two-state solution has the remotest chance to work.
The UN offered Arab Muslims a two-state solution in 1948. While the United States recognized the state of Israel within minutes of the 1948 UN declaration, the surrounding Muslim nations spat on the two-state solution and went to war.

The sober truth is that the vast majority of Muslims in the Middle East are interested only in a one-state solution: a Muslim one with Israel wiped off the planet, gone. Palestinian school children today study maps of the Middle East on which Israel does not appear. It would be the height of folly to believe any single thing Muslim leaders say about living in peace with Israel. They do not want to live in peace with Israel, they want to obliterate her.
But beyond all these quite sound reasons to stand unapologetically with Israel against its adversaries, there is one additional, overriding reason.

We should stand with Israel because God does.
God made a profound promise to the father of the Jewish people, a promise which he has never revoked and which is still in effect today. "I will bless those who bless you, and him who dishonors you I will curse" (Genesis 12:3).

God here declares one simple, abiding truth: he will deal with the nations of the world as they deal with Israel.
A nation which stands with Israel will receive a blessing from God. A nation which stands against the Jewish people (Nazi Germany comes to mind) will rest under a curse.
You can argue all day if you'd like about whether the United States is a Christian nation. The evidence is indisputable that it is, but one thing no one can dispute is that the United States has been kind to the biological and spiritual offspring of Abraham.
It has been the friendliest place on earth for the followers of Christ, who according to the apostle are also "sons of Abraham" (Galatians 3:7). And the United States has historically provided a safe place, a haven, for the physical descendants of Abraham (the Jewish people), who have been able to freely practice their faith here and enjoy the prosperity and possibilities this Christian nation affords to all people of good will.

So if someone is looking for a reason for America's security and success, he needs look no further: God has blessed America because America has blessed the sons of Abraham.
And there is yet one more reason to support Israel. America owes the Jewish people a lasting debt for preserving for us the "oracles of God," as Paul describes them in Romans 3:2.

The Jewish people zealously protected, preserved, and passed on the very words of God as recorded by the ancient prophets and historians in Israel. Our faith as a Christian nation is rooted in Jewish soil. No Judaism, no Christianity.
Abraham is our father in the faith, the Ten Commandments our guiding standard for both personal and public morality, and the Jewish prophets of old still a source of inspiration. (You can ask Martin Luther King, Jr. about that.)

Nobody pays attention to the ancient code of Hammurabi any more, but the ancient code of Moses has always provided moral and public policy guidance for the American people and still does today. The 55 framers of the Constitution cited the Bible more often than any other external source in their writings and speeches, with a full 34 percent of all their citations coming from the pages of Holy Writ. (The next most frequently cited source clocked in at eight percent.)
The bulk of these citations are from the book of Deuteronomy, which records the public policies and laws God gave to ancient Israel, and which served as an inspiration and guide for the Founders as they established American law and jurisprudence.

Ten Commandments monuments can be found today in city after city in the United States, and copies of the Decalogue once hung on the wall of virtually every classroom in America and can still be found in courtroom after courtroom, including the United States Supreme Court. For the preservation of that abiding standard, the Jewish people are to be thanked.
Our Messiah, the one we regard as the Savior of the world, walked this earth as a Jew and practiced the Jewish faith. Simple regard for the person of Jesus commands respect for the faith he himself followed and the people to whom he belonged.

Paul says quite plainly that the Gentile world owes Israel a debt which it is morally bound to repay. Speaking of the Jews, he says, "For if the Gentiles have come to share in their spiritual blessings, they ought also to be of service to them in material blessings" (Romans 15:27). Indeed, Paul says we owe it to them. Hard to get much clearer than that.
Israel is preciously short of friends these days. For the first time in our history, the Jewish people do not have a friend in the White House. So they must be able to count on the friendship, loyalty and support of the American people. Let's make sure we do not let them down.

STAND UP AND TELL THE TRUTH ABOUT CHRISTIANITY AND ISLAM

January 30, 2015

Stand up and tell the truth about Christianity and Islam

By Laurie Roth

Rarely do people these days speak spiritual or political truth, especially if they perceive they might be rejected, attacked, or lose power. Instead, we see Christian and political posers who have the cookie cutter look of Christianity and conservatism. Let's see... "Show real faith and imagine yourself in that Jaguar," "social gospel," "self-esteem" gospel, "many-ways-to-God gospel." Preachers and their supporting political kiss-ups can sure collect big offerings, preach a passionate sermon, and sell books. They dupe, condition, seduce, trick, and lie to the masses. They are nothing but empty tombs that support the putrid evil that hides underneath the frosting.

This week, I was thrilled to hear from one of my regular guests and friend, Iraqi and former Islamic I.Q., Al Rassooli about a brave German woman who stood up for Christ. She was concerned about an "interfaith event" designed to bring Christianity and Islam together. This was scheduled on Nov. 10, 2013, at the Memorial Church of the Reformation in Speyer, built to honor Martin Luther, a historical and bold light for Christianity.
The German lady, Heidi Mund, decided to drive the 1½ hours to the event to see what it was about. She says she took her German flag with "Jesus Christ is Lord" written on it. CBN.com reports:

"Until the imam started with his shouting, I did not really know what to do. I was just prepared for what God wants me to do," she told CBN News. Then the Muslim call to prayer began, and Heidi said she felt something rising up inside her.
"I would call it a holy anger," she recounted. "And then I rose with my flag and I was calling and proclaiming that Jesus Christ is Lord over Germany." She also says that she repeated the word of Martin Luther in 1521 after he refused to recant his faith in scripture alone: "Here I stand. I can do no other," and "Save the church of Martin Luther!"

As you can imagine, others at the event tried to quite her down and shut her up. "This is a concert for peace." She was rebuked then thrown out of the church.
The lies and kiss-up event from hell continued as they talked and sang of "peace" from the pit of hell. Mund states:
"They should have thrown the imam out and not me because I am a believer in Jesus Christ, but he serves another god. This Allah is not the same god. And this is not the truth."
Bravo to Heidi Mund standing up for the truth and for the Lord Jesus Christ. It is high time American Christians also find their voices as Heidi did, especially when speaking about Islam and Christianity.

Here are the facts whether you like them or not

Our history as a country IS Christian. Jesus Christ IS Lord, and the Holy Bible IS the truth. America IS a Christian nation and never will be Islamic! Oh yeah...and Islam is evil and from the pit of hell. Remember, Chapter 9 in the Koran gives us 3 choices. Look for yourself: 1) convert to Islam, 2) submit to their high tax as an unbeliever, 3) die. Pick option 4): stand up for the real message of Christ and call Islam what it is...evil.
There is zero relationship at all with Islam, Muhammad and Allah, and Christianity, Jesus Christ and Jehovah. It is blaspheming Christ and the Holy Bible to dare even talk about combining the two faiths with www.christlam.org. Any "poser" pastor, including big dog Rick Warren and any other who dares include Islam as part of the Christian family is false, evil, and from the pit of hell.

Stop the "soft talk" and "peace crap" and say it right!
America was created by and is still inspired by Jesus Christ. Our freedoms, Constitution, and Bill of Rights are simply a mirror reflecting the principles of the Holy Bible. Worth of each person, uniqueness, freedom, sacrifice, achievement, humility, love, and forgiveness for sin, and trust in God...it is all there.

Let us ALL take a stand in our lives, work, communities, churches, states, and country, and get our country back.
Join me each day as I take on these issues from 7-10 pm PAC atwww.therothshow.com.

My comments: Laurie Roth is correct. All Islam is birthed out of the Koran which Incites Violence against Everyone, including its own. It is Evil of the Devil. 

HEZBOLLAH LEADER THREATENS ISRAEL

Hezbollah Leader Tells Israel, We No Longer Recognize ‘Rules of Engagement’

Hezbollah leader Sheikh Hasan Nasrallah has delivered a bloodcurdling warning to Israel that the Islamist terrorist organization will attack at any time and in any manner it deems fit – but the group’s strategic weakness suggests that his words will be difficult to back up with actual deeds. 

Nasrallah made his remarks during a speech commemorating the “Resistance’s Martyrs in Quneitra,” in the wake of an Israeli strike on the Golan Heights on January 18 that left six Hezbollah members and an Iranian general dead, Naharnet reported. “The resistance no longer recognizes the rules of engagement and it has the right to respond to the enemy at any time or place,” 

Nasrallah said. ““From now on, if any member of Hizbullah is assassinated, then we will blame it on Israel and reserve the right to respond to it whenever and however we choose.” The terrorist chieftain sounded a note of caution amid the bluster, however, when he added, “We do not want a war, but we do not fear it.” 

Nasrallah then thundered, in a reference to Sunni extremist terrorists: “It is our duty, as we commemorate the martyrs of the resistance, to salute the martyrs of the Lebanese army, who were killed in Ras Baalbek as they were defending the Bekaa against takfiri terrorists, who prove everyday that they are fulfilling the Israeli agenda.”

Israel yesterday demanded the full implementation of UN Security Council resolution 1701, passed in 2006, which calls for the complete disarmament of Hezbollah. Moreover, many Lebanese analysts agree that the organization is approaching the current tensions from a point of weakness. 

“Hezbollah’s statements have become increasingly embarrassing with each Israeli strike on either their own or Assad’s positions,” wrote Hanin Ghaddar on the NOW Lebanon website. 

“Its rhetoric has changed from a heroic expression of dignity and victory to a more realistic one with redundant phrases such as ‘wisdom’ and ‘the right time.’ But Hezbollah cannot survive without heroism or victory, especially among its supporters, and this has been dragging them to dangerously low levels popularity.”

IN CHRIST: FREE AND LOVED

Free & Loved - by C D Swanson

And he laid it upon my mouth, and said, Lo, this hath touched thy lips; and thine iniquity is taken away, and thy sin purged. (Isaiah 6:7 KJV)
Christ came to “save” and sent by our Father in which it was made possible. He came for our salvation so that we might share in eternal life. 

There are so many people living in darkness who haven’t experienced the freedom of being redeemed through unconditional love. Who through the blood of Christ have been washed clean. There are those who are followers, and yet still feel ashamed of their “former life” when they were sinners. Still, there are those who “sin along the way” and are hard on themselves believing they’re condemned bringing anguish. However, to feel condemned, and guilt, is to deny Christ and what He’s done for us. Because we’re created in perfect love and perfect love cast out torment and anguish. (1 John 4:18 ).

Being in flesh bodies we fall short of perfection, only One above is perfect and Holy in all His ways…so when we fall short, repent, and ask Father for forgiveness. If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and cleanse us from all unrighteousness (1 John 1:9 KJV)

When we’re followers and trust in God, we have the power of Christ in all we endeavor. We have Jesus, our Kinsman Redeemer, who claimed us as His own. We can trust in the Light of the world to keep us from darkness, and keep us safe within the confines of His heart which will promote spiritual well-being, thereby giving us complete peace of mind.

Father, thank you for the Light of this world, I’m free because of Your love. Amen

AMERICAN MINUTE

AMERICA DEDICATED TO GOD FROM ITS 1ST MOMENTS

Bill Federer quotes Revolution Chaplain Jacob Duche'

When British troops descended on Boston, the Continental Congress’ first official act was to request Rev. Jacob Duche’, pastor of Philadelphia’s Christ Church, to open in prayer: “Tuesday, Sept. 6, 1774. Resolved, That the Rev. Mr. Duche’ be desired to open the Congress tomorrow morning with prayers, at the Carpenter’s Hall, at 9 o’clock.”

Born Jan. 31, 1738, Rev. Jacob Duche’ was a prominent leader in Pennsylvania, as his grandfather, Anthony Duche’, had sailed to America with William Penn, the founder of Pennsylvania.

His father, Jacob Duche’ Sr., helped Ben Franklin in 1748 raise a volunteer militia of armed private citizens to defend the city during the French and Indian War.

On Sept. 7, 1774, Rev. Jacob Duche’ Jr., arrived at Carpenter’s Hall in Philadelphia and read the 35th Psalm, which was the designated Anglican reading for that day: “Plead my cause, Oh, Lord, with them that strive with me, fight against them that fight against me. Take hold of buckler and shield, and rise up for my help. Draw also the spear and the battle-axe to meet those who pursue me; Say to my soul, ‘I am your salvation.’ Let those be ashamed and dishonored who seek my life; Let those be turned back and humiliated who devise evil against me.”

Rev. Duche’ then offered an extemporaneous prayer.

John Adams wrote to his wife, Abigail: “Mr. Duche’ appeared with his clerk and in his pontificals, and read several prayers in the established form, and read the collect for the 7th day of September, which was the 35th Psalm. You must remember, this was the next morning after we heard the horrible rumor of the cannonade of Boston. I never saw a greater effect upon an audience. It seem as if heaven had ordained that Psalm to be read on that morning. After this, Mr. Duche’, unexpectedly to everybody, struck out into an extemporary prayer, which filled the bosom of every man present. I must confess, I never heard a better prayer, or one so well pronounced … with such fervor, such ardor, such earnestness and pathos, and in language so elegant and sublime, for America, for the Congress, for the province of Massachusetts Bay, and especially the town of Boston. It has had an excellent effect upon everybody here.”

Congress voted: “Wednesday, Sept. 7, 1774 … that the thanks of Congress be given to Mr. Duche’ … for performing divine Service, and for the excellent prayer, which he composed and delivered on the occasion.”

The next year, on July 7, 1775, Rev. Duché addressed the soldiers of First Battalion of the City of Philadelphia.

Dedicating his sermon to General Washington, he published it with the title “The Duty of Standing Fast in Our Spiritual and Temporal Liberties”: “If spiritual liberty calls … to a glorious hereafter, civil liberty must at least be allowed to secure … our well-being here. … Civil liberty is as much the gift of God in Christ Jesus as the former, and consequently, that we are bound to stand fast in our civil as well as our spiritual freedom … ‘standing fast’ in that liberty, wherewith Christ, as the great providential Governor of the world, hath made us free.”

On July 4, 1776, after Congress passed the Declaration of Independence, Rev. Mr. Duche’ walked across the square to his church and convened a special meeting of his Vestry. He then took the large Anglican Book of Common Prayer from the pulpit and crossed out prayers for “the King of England,” replacing them with “the United States of America.”

This greatly affected the country, as his was the first church to stop praying for the King.

On July 8, 1776, John Hancock, president of the Continental Congress, wrote to Rev. Mr. Jacob Duche’: “Sir, it is with the greatest pleasure I inform you that the Congress have been indeed, from a consideration of your piety, as well as your uniform and zealous attachment to the rights of America, to appoint you their Chaplain. It is their request, which I am commanded to signify to you, that you will attend on them, every morning at nine o’clock.”

Lorenzo Sabine’s History of the Loyalists (1864), recorded Rev. Mr. Jacob Duche’ first prayer after the Declaration of Independence was approved: “O Lord our Heavenly Father, High and Mighty, King of Kings, and Lord of Lords, who dost from thy throne behold all the dwellers on earth, and reignest with power supreme and uncontrolled over all kingdoms, empires, and governments, look down with mercy, we beseech Thee, on these our American States, who have fled to Thee, from the rod of the oppressor … desiring to be henceforth dependent only on Thee.”

On Sept. 26, 1777, British General Howe invaded Philadelphia and imprisoned Rev. Duche’, undoubtedly pressuring him.

Ten days after his release, being discouraged after the Continental Army’s heavy losses at the Battles of Brandywine and Germantown, Rev. Jacob Duche’ disappointed the country. He penned a letter to General Washington urging surrender, then sailed for England.

Later, regretting his decision after the war, Rev. Jacob Duche’ returned to Philadelphia, where he died in 1798.

Though disparaged for leaving, Rev. Jacob Duche’ is best remembered for his stirring address to the soldiers of Philadelphia in the critical early years of the Revolution, July 7, 1775: “Considering myself under the twofold character of a minister of Jesus Christ, and a fellow-citizen … involved in the same public calamity with yourselves … I have made choice of a passage of Scripture … addressing myself to you as freemen, both in the spiritual and temporal sense … suggesting to you … under the blessing of Heaven, to … ‘Stand fast, therefore, in the liberty, wherewith Christ hath made us free’ (Galatians, chapter 5).”

Rev. Jacob Duche’ concluded: “‘Stand Fast’ by an undaunted courage … a courage that will prove you to be good Christians, as well as soldiers, a firm invincible fortitude of soul, founded upon religion, and the glorious hope of a better world … courage, that will enable you not only to withstand an armed phalanx, to pierce a squadron, or force an entrenchment … but will support you … against the principalities and powers of darkness … pain and sickness, and … all the horrors of a death-bed scene. … Courage … will never degenerate into savage cruelty and barbarity. … Be prepared … for the worst. Suffer not your spirits to evaporate. … Though the worst should come – though we should be deprived of all the conveniences and elegancies of life … nevertheless, ‘Stand Fast’ as the guardians of liberty … NOW, THEREFORE, BE STRONG, O ZERUBBABEL, AND BE STRONG, O JOSHUA … FOR I AM WITH YOU, SAITH THE LORD OF HOSTS … LOOK YE UNTO ME, AND BE SAVED, ALL YE ENDS OF THE EARTH!”

REAL AMERICA

WHAT'S NEXT – COMPOSTING DEAD BABIES?

Exclusive: Patrice Lewis notes Seattle forbids tossing out orange peel, but not the unborn

Out here on our farm, we have many methods of waste disposal.

Human waste, of course, is flushed into the septic system. Barn waste gets heaped onto a giant compost pile, where it eventually breaks down and is worked into our half-acre garden or shared with neighbors. Burnable waste gets tossed in our wood stove (during colder months). Recyclables get recycled, which is a chore since the nearest recycling center is an hour’s drive away. Food waste is divvied into scraps for the chickens or dogs, or composted along with garden waste (I’m also looking into worm composting). And of course sometimes there’s plain ol’ garbage, a lot less than the American norm since we don’t buy a lot of prepackaged stuff.

And once, a couple of years ago, we had a calf born dead – the first we’ve ever lost. Because we didn’t want it to attract predators, we buried it.

But if there’s one thing we don’t have, it’s nosy busybodies sniffing around our property, making sure we comply with someone else’s rigid requirements of how we should manage our waste stream.

The same cannot be said for certain progressive municipalities such as Seattle, where sniffing through strangers’ garbage is apparently an accepted part of life. Not only that, but people can be shamed in front of their neighbors by the use of bright red tags on garbage cans announcing to the world that the evil people within that house (gasp) threw away a rotting banana.

You see, it’s now against the law to throw away food in Seattle and certain other cities. Food waste cannot be put into regular garbage cans – it must be composted. And to make sure your waste doesn’t contain any forbidden coffee grounds or rotting bananas, the city employs garbage police.

These waste watchers are called “recologists” and are hired by urban bureaucrats to make sure you don’t commit the unspeakable sin of tossing that rotting banana into the trash. “You can see all the oranges and coffee grounds,” said one recologist in Seattle as he lifted the lid of a garbage can. “All that makes great compost. You can put that in your compost bin and buy it back next year in a bag and put it in your garden.”

Look, I don’t have any objection to composting, recycling and sensible waste management. But doesn’t it creep you out when strangers paw through your garbage and fine you (and shame you) when your waste habits don’t meet their rigid standards?

It seems to me that progressives spend their entire lives fighting against freedom. The Constitution and Bill of Rights were conceived with the notion of minimal governmental intrusion into our personal lives, but liberals hate personal responsibility and individual liberty. Instead they prefer draconian laws and rigid regulations to bring everyone into compliance with their vision of urban Utopia – except for one thing: their sex lives. In that area, not only do they want NO responsibility and NO restrictions, but they also want the government (meaning, you and me) to pay for every facet, fallout and stupid decision that results from that lack of responsibility and restraint.

Learn how to achieve a simple lifestyle without “going green” or joining a monastery. Read Patrice Lewis’ helpful book, “The Simplicity Primer: 365 Ideas for Making Life more Livable”

Liberals are expected to have the self-control to compost their banana peels, but not to keep their knees together or their wick zipped until marriage. Apparently, it’s easier (and more moral) to force someone to compost their coffee grounds than to force someone to take responsibility for their sexual behavior. In progressive cities, you can’t toss away your apple core or you’ll get a red tag … but you can walk into an abortion center and toss away a living baby without a second thought.

This is the kind of nanny state progressives long for, a place where uncomposted coffee grounds or orange peels are horrifying, but abortions are easy, encouraged, or even celebrated.

Progressives like to claim a woman has the “right” to rip a living fetus from her body – but not to toss a rotting banana in the trash. Is it just me, or does anyone else think this is twisted logic? And what do they do with thousands of dead babies? Do they compost them? I mean, wouldn’t that be the ecologically friendly thing to do?

The logic of liberals escapes me. It seems it’s the norm to demonize the disposal of food waste while being utterly uncaring to the fate of unborn children. People can be shamed in front of their neighbors for throwing away coffee grounds, but praised by all society for the “courage” to abort a baby so it wouldn’t interfere with their lifestyle. People can be humiliated for their lack of self-control when it comes to waste, but praised and encouraged for their lack of control when it comes to hooking up or “expressing their sexuality.”

It strikes me that if places like Seattle stopped being so draconian about waste disposal and instead stopped funding irresponsible and poor sexual choices, there might be an increase in peoples’ personal restraint and self-control. After all, one of the reasons people are irresponsible with their sex lives in the first place is because the government pays them to procreate out of wedlock. Worse, it encourages people to abort unwanted babies into the waste stream, with less regard than rotting bananas and coffee grounds.

Seattle and other progressive cities do their best to retire food waste with dignity. But what happens to wasted fetuses? Are they treated to a dignified burial, or are they tossed away like a dead calf or “composted” in incinerators?

What a sad, twisted, mixed-up world where banana peels are treated with more care than dead baby cows, and certainly better than dead baby people. In such a world, good is evil and evil is good.

I’m certain the progressives reading this column will miss my point entirely. They’ll twist my words to infer how conservatives are heartless cretins out to destroy women’s “rights” by suggesting they bear any fruit they willingly conceive.

Read it again. If you don’t want a child, keep your legs crossed or your wick zipped. Abstinence works 100 percent of the time. By taking personal responsibility for your procreation, imagine how well you can minimize your waste stream.

That way, you’ll have lots more time to compost your kitchen scraps without bringing death into the equation.

WND EXCLUSIVE

'NO-GO' ZONES 'FACT OF LIFE' IN EUROPE

'Multiculturalists and their politically correct supporters' in denial

NEW YORK – Amid controversy over whether or not Muslim “no-go” zones exist in Europe, Soeren Kern, a senior fellow at the New York-based Gatestone Institute and also at the Madrid-based Strategic Studies Group, contends they are “a well-known fact of life” in many parts of the continent.

“Europe’s no-go zones are the byproduct of decades of multicultural policies that have encouraged Muslim immigrants to create parallel societies and remain segregated from – rather than become integrated into – their European host nations,” Kern wrote Jan. 20 in a Gatestone Institute paper titled “European ‘No-Go’ Zones: Fact or Fiction.”

Kern asserted the “problem of no-go zones is well documented, but multiculturalists and their politically correct supporters vehemently deny that they exist.”

“Some are now engaged in a concerted campaign to discredit and even silence those who draw attention to the issue,” he said.

As WND reported, Steven Emerson, director of the Investigative Project on Terrorism, ignited the furor when he said in a Fox News interview Jan. 11, “there are actual cities like Birmingham that are totally Muslim, where non-Muslims just simply don’t go in.”

Paris Mayor Anne Hidalgo threatened to sue Fox News, charging its coverage of the issue “insulted” Paris, and the news channel issued an apology. But contrary to how it was widely reported, Fox News didn’t apologize for saying there were “no-go” zones, and supporters of Emerson argued he was guilty only of overstatement, not fabrication.

“I think Steve Emerson’s biggest mistake was to apologize so profusely,” Kern argued. “If Emerson had just said, ‘I made a mistake and what I meant to say was parts of Birmingham, not all of Birmingham,’ that would have been OK. But once you apologize and show the slightest bit of weakness, the attackers attack and try to devour. I think that’s what happened to Steve.”

In an interview with WND, Kern said supporters of multiculturalism typically have derided any news source or politician who dares openly proclaim the existence of “no-go” zones throughout Europe.

He believes the damage done to Emerson by the comment will pass.

“Emerson is a solid researcher, and his work is very well respected,” Kern said. “I think this will blow over; but we’re already entering presidential campaign mode for 2016, and I believe the entire controversy over ‘no-go’ zones in Europe is a completely fake, contrived controversy.

“I think the controversy is really only in the United States, and the French picked up on it,” he said. “If you read the readers comments in the French newspapers on the Fox News controversy, it is overwhelmingly, like nine comments out of 10, that readers agree with what Fox News said originally. Ordinary readers in France know what’s going on, even if the mainstream media on both sides of the Atlantic are trying to cover it up.”

Failed model

Kern believes the “multicultural model in Europe is failing.”

“There has been so much invested in this over the last 30 years, that those people who are promoting this are very afraid this is going to be reversed,” he said.

Kern stressed that uncontrolled immigration of a growing Muslim population is the underlying issue in many European countries.

“In Europe, like in the United States, immigration is literally out of control,” he said. “But the big difference is that in the United States, when you have Latin American immigrants coming across the border, they have a Roman Catholic Western worldview. But in Europe, with mass immigration coming from North Africa and the Middle Eastern countries, it’s a completely different worldview.”

Consequently, he said, a “huge clash of civilizations develops in Europe, and I think that’s why many want to cover this up and discredit anybody who talks about this openly.”

He thinks “the writing is on the wall,” and many more terrorist attacks like the one on Charlie Hebdo in Paris are inevitable, particularly in Europe.

Kern cited the rise of populist politicians such as Marine Le Pen in France, with polls showing that if there were a presidential race in France today there would be a blowback, as “a lot of French people are upset that immigration, security and integration issues have been swept under the carpet too long.”

Rejecting French values

In his published research, Kern has identified many readily available sources that have documented the “no-go” zones for the past decade.

For instance, Kern cites a “landmark 2,200-page report, “Banlieue de la République” (“Suburbs of the Republic”), published in France in October 2011. It found that Seine-Saint-Denis and other Parisian suburbs are becoming “separate Islamic societies” cut off from the French state, where Islamic law, or Shariah, is rapidly displacing French civil law.

Kern emphasized the report, commissioned by the influential French think tank, L’Institut Montaigne – directed by Gilles Kepel, a highly respected political scientist and specialist in Islam – concluded that Muslim immigrants are increasingly rejecting French values and instead are immersing themselves in radical Islam.

“The authors of the report showed that France – which now has 6.5 million Muslims, the largest Muslim population in the European Union – is on the brink of a major social explosion because of the failure of Muslims to integrate into French society,” Kerns wrote in his Jan. 20 Gatestone Institute paper.

“The report also showed how the problem is being exacerbated by radical Muslim preachers, who are promoting the social marginalization of Muslim immigrants in order to create a parallel Muslim society in France that is ruled by Sharia law,” Kern concluded.

He said the research was primarily carried out in the Seine-Saint-Denis townships of Clichy-sous-Bois and Montfermeil, two suburbs that were ground zero for Muslim riots in the fall of 2005, when Muslim mobs torched more than 9,000 cars.

Kern describes Muslim no-go zones in Europe without any apology.

In his Gatestone Institute paper, he wrote: “No-go zones are Muslim-dominated neighborhoods that are largely off limits to non-Muslims due to a variety of factors, including the lawlessness and insecurity that pervades a great number of these areas.

“Host-country authorities have effectively lost control over many no-go zones and are often unable or unwilling to provide even basic public aid, such as police, fire fighting and ambulance services, out of fear of being attacked by Muslim youth,” he continued. “Muslim enclaves in European cities are also breeding grounds for Islamic radicalism and pose a significant threat to Western security.”

Kern leaves no doubt the existence of no-go zones in Europe reflects primarily the unwillingness of Muslims to accept European values, including Europe’s Christian past.

“Europe’s no-go zones are the byproduct of decades of multicultural policies that have encouraged Muslim immigrants to create parallel societies and remain segregated from – rather than become integrated into – their European host nations,” he wrote.

“Most of the Muslim no-go zones in Paris are on the outskirts of the city,” he explained to WND. “These areas are cut off from public transportation and a lot of the young Muslims are French citizens whose parents were immigrants, but they are second or third-generation French. These young Muslims have a difficult time finding jobs. Some of these areas are as high as 60 percent unemployment. The only way many of these youth survive is by dealing drugs and participating in the underground economy because that’s the only way they can survive.”

He explained that the economic misery of the Muslim youth in Paris is a perfect environment in which radical Muslims recruit.

“What happens in the economic misery of these no-go zones in Paris is that radical Muslims learn how to exploit this situation to recruit,” he said. “So in some cases the parents who came to France 20 or 30 years ago were not really Islamic in that they really did not dwell on an Islamic identity compared to their Moroccan identity or their Algerian identity. But the second and third generation youth have no identification with a Moroccan or Algerian identity. But, although they were born in France, they don’t identify as French. So it’s the youth that begin to adopt the Muslim identity.”

Kern said the problem of social identity among Muslims in Paris bubbled to the surface in 2005 when the youth riots began with the car burning that drew international attention.

“The fact that today there are 700 French jihadists in Iraq and Syria shows that France has a huge problem with the younger generation,” he continued. “When these guys start coming back to France from the battlefields, we can expect a lot more terrorist attacks.”

My comments: The Genesis of Islam is the Koran and the Koran Incites Violence against Everyone, including its own. Wherever there are Muslims in foreign nations there will be "no go zones."

SAVAGE: DISNEYLAND MEASLES PART OF OBAMA'S 'MEDICAL GENOCIDE'

'The killer flu, TB – all the result of this anti-American government'

A top federal health official said Thursday the recent outbreak of measles that first appeared in California’s Disneyland probably came from overseas.

“We don’t know exactly how this outbreak started, but we do think it was likely a person infected with measles overseas,” Dr. Anne Schuchat of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention told reporters.

Popular radio host Michael Savage is not the least bit surprised by the news.

“Immigrants and epidemics – I’ve been sounding the alarm bell on this since I began in radio in 1994,” Savage wrote to WND. “The socialist government, media, academic, medical apparatchiks have looked the other way or changed the origin of numerous illnesses which were once eradicated in our once-first world nation.”

Savage, who holds a Ph.D in nutritional ethnomedicine, continued: “Measles had been nearly eradicated until about 15 years ago. When Clinton busted our border with Mexico, the floodgates were opened to infected migrants. Measles, TB, even malaria is returning! This is a form of medical genocide.”

He continued: “These illegal migrants may have a greater resistance to these illnesses owing to the fact they live in the midst of the infecting organisms. Our population is nearly ‘virgin’ to these infectious organisms. The killer flu raging through our population, measles, TB are all the result of this anti-American government.”

The charged-up Savage finished with an ominous historical analogy: “When European seamen arrived in Tahiti and the Marquesas, they brought with them smallpox, which nearly wiped out the entire local population in only 20 years. You see, the ‘natives’ had no resistance to this disease. We are now Obama’s ‘natives.’”

Lee Hieb, M.D., author of “Surviving the Medical Meltdown: Your Guide to Living Through the Disaster of Obamacare,” was similarly unsurprised that the measles outbreak may have come from overseas.

“I’ve been saying this for a while, as many other doctors have been,” Hieb said. “When you open your borders without medical screening to these illegals, you’re not just bringing measles. Measles is just the overt thing. You’re bringing a lot of diseases, and this is going to be one of them.”

She continued, “So that viral gastroenteritis that came, leprosy, for God’s sake, malaria – all these things that we had basically eradicated in this country are going to become resurgent.”

Jane M. Orient, M.D., executive director of the Association of American Physicians and Surgeons, also joined the discussion.

She has been in solo practice of general internal medicine since 1981, and is a clinical lecturer in medicine at the University of Arizona College of Medicine, authoring “Your Doctor Is Not In: Healthy Skepticism about National Health Care.”

“I believe the index case for all recent U.S. measles outbreaks was infected abroad,” she told WND. “We have had a surge of children from abroad. It is said that Central America has good vaccination and public health – but illegals come without vaccine records. Children from Central America who were screened in Nogales, Arizona, were given one dose of MMR.”

She said, “Unlike natural immunity, which is more robust and generally lifelong, vaccine-induced immunity wanes. A lot of American adults are susceptible, even if fully vaccinated as children. It is unfortunate that monovalent measles vaccine is no longer made available. The measles vaccine is the one that is most needed; the most feared adverse effects are associated with MMR (measles mumps rubella).”
