Why Does the Decline of Islam Have to Fall on Us?

by Nidra Poller (July 2010)


The following is an expanded version of the speech delivered by Ms. Poller to the New English Review symposium, "Decline, Fall & Islam," on June 19, 2010.


Why does the decline of Islam have to fall on us? How can we shift the burden back where it belongs? Though the balance of military, technological, and economic power is overwhelmingly in our favor, we are constantly losing ground. The last great confrontation with a genocidal totalitarian war machine—Nazi Germany and its allies—caught us militarily off guard. Our democracies scrambled, tooled up, and fought to win. Today we have the best armies in the world. And they are hamstrung because our minds are disarmed. more>>>

A powerful indictment that ranks with the testimony of Zola, Orwell and Churchill. May it be in the words of Churchill...at least ....."The End of the Beginning" phase of the conflict paving the way for.... the Beginning of the End"

In 2008, Americans were most concerned about the economic collapse under George W. Bush. They blamed the Republicans for having no convincing explanations and solutions. John McCain seemed like a deer in the headlight. His running mate, Sarah Palin, seemed utterly light-weight. Similarly, all of Obama's Democratic opponents knocked themselves out of the game one way or another. Hillary Clinton, because of her inability to run a campaign, much less a health care project, and her connection to the always controversial Bill.

Global jihad does not account for the presidential election result in 2008. It was not a "coup d'etat", even though many of us friends of Israel and opponents of Islam now have buyer's regret. We do not have a totalitarian system. An American president has a lot of power, but there are many checks and balances, including the upcoming Congressional elections this Fall.

Although many American projected wishful thoughts on a youthful black congressman, Islamic taqiyyah explains little about his victory in 2008.

Is Islam so dangerous?Can anybody believed?What America is doing in Iraq and Afghanistan, there they are killing people just like mouse with arms robot and dronero plain?Can you tell me how much soldiers of NATO are killed by Muslim?Can America published  how much innocent Muslim killed by America.

Reading Your speech I shocked. From last four centuries how many  murdered white people done in the world.What happened in South America and Australia?Who erased whole race?You want constantly enemies,.A Genocidal mentality is indubitably at the very heart of white man psyche. That reflection is seen in your speech
