Lessons America didn't learn from 9/11
DHS whistleblower warns of the violent Islamic threat

This Sunday Americans mark the 15th anniversary of the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001. It will be a day of solemn remembrance, as most Americans now living still remember that horrible day.

But has the United States learned all the lessons it should have learned from the events of 9/11?

Only six days after 9/11, then-President George W. Bush delivered an address at the Islamic Center of Washington, D.C., in which he declared “Islam is peace.”

“These acts of violence against innocents violate the fundamental tenets of the Islamic faith,” President Bush said that day. “And it’s important for my fellow Americans to understand that… The face of terror is not the true faith of Islam. That’s not what Islam is all about. Islam is peace. These terrorists don’t represent peace. They represent evil and war.”

The idea that Islam is a religion of peace is nonsense, according to former Department of Homeland Security officer Philip Haney.

“In retrospect, 15 years later, was President Bush correct?” Haney asked during an interview with WND. “Has Islam proven itself to be, with the hindsight of 15 years, a religion of peace? There have been 29,100 and counting violent jihad attacks around the world since 9/11, scattered all over the world, not to mention conflicts in probably 15 to 20 different countries, with massive atrocities across the globe.”

The answer is obvious, according to Haney. Islam is a violent religion, and its adherents receive their commands to kill from the Quran itself. Haney cited Surah 9:111 of the Quran, which reads in part: “Indeed, Allah has purchased from the believers their lives and their properties [in exchange] for that they will have Paradise. They fight in the cause of Allah, so they kill and are killed.”

He also pointed to Surah 2:191, which reads in part, “And kill them wherever you overtake them and expel them from wherever they have expelled you.”

So the lesson to be taken from the 9/11 attacks and the subsequent 15 years is that Islam is not peace, as President Bush stated.

“We’ve had 1,400 years of history to evaluate the effect of Islam, and if they were really serious about proving what George Bush said, haven’t they had plenty of opportunity to do so since 9/11?” Haney reasoned.

Not only did Bush fail to learn his lesson, but President Obama has refused to learn it.

What our leaders from both parties learned that day is that terrorist activity is a great way to steal money and liberty from a fearful public. The DHS was a patronage riddled boondoggle right from the starting gate. Then we got conned into the Iraq war even as Bin Laden ran around free as a bird during our Afghan incursions. Mohammad Atta's entire family gave TV interviews galore without fear of reprisals from the son of the great wimp George Bush. Now the structure that kept Islam in check in the Mideast for over a century is blown to bits, and it's all by design. The Bush's, Obama, The Clintons, etc.....all on the same team and they all disdain the hard working people of this land who know they deserve better than this class of venal snobs who are using us as pawns. Can Trump change this equation? Who knows, but like the man himself said...what have we got to lose?

Every time one wonders why the Saudis and Jihadi Moslems have not been hedl to account, remember the petro dollar, an arrangement under which Nixon and Kissinger sold our collective souls in exchange for the ability to keep expanding central government.
