Can We Survive Four More
Years of Obama?
By Robert Spencer
Can America afford four more years of Barack Obama as
President of the United States? In the most literal terms, probably not: his
reckless deficit spending can’t be sustained indefinitely, and as he has
campaigned on a platform of more free goodies for everyone, it won’t be much
longer before the gravy train runs out. Meanwhile, his relentless class warfare
rhetoric has sown the seeds of civil discord for years to come. But even worse
could be in store for us if Obama is reelected.
Now that pro-Sharia Islamic supremacist regimes are
installed, thanks to Barack Obama, in Egypt, Tunisia, and Libya, the oppression
of women and non-Muslims is certain to escalate in those countries. They are
also certain only to grow in their anti-Americanism, and may try to unite in an
attempt to restore the caliphate, which will only bring more bloodshed and
strife to the region. And since the caliph is the only one authorized (and
required) in Islamic law to wage offensive jihad against Infidels, if they
succeed in choosing one, the result will not be happy for America and the West.

Nor is it likely to be for Israel. Many elements within the new
Muslim Brotherhood regime in Egypt have already signaled their readiness to jettison
the Camp David Accords and start another war with Israel. For states based on
Islamic law, which designates the Jews the worst enemies of the Muslims (cf.
Qur’an 5:82), such a war becomes a religious imperative. Obama’s unremitting
hostility toward Israel has only made the prospect of war with Israel more
attractive for Iran, Hizballah, Hamas, and Israel’s other jihadist enemies, for
they see the United States as no longer unconditionally committed to Israel’s
defense – despite Obama’s Zionist act during the third debate.
If Obama is reelected, America’s relationship with Israel
will continue to deteriorate, and Iran will continue to sneer at his “crippling
sanctions” while rushing to develop nuclear weapons, which it will almost
certainly use to attempt to destroy Israel. Obama’s refusal to back the 2009
uprisings against the Iranian regime will thus bear its bitterest fruit of all.
And in Afghanistan, our troops will remain until at least
2014 with no definition of victory and no clear mission, at the mercy of their
Afghan “allies” who use them for target practice on an increasingly frequent
basis. And what are we fighting for? The Karzai regime? Against whom? The
Taliban? Yet the Karzai has repeatedly asked the Taliban to join the government
and put up candidates for elected office. So why are we fighting against the
Taliban? For them to join the Afghan government would be, as Pamela Geller has
pointed out, like Hitler running for office in Germany in 1946, had he survived
the war. The invitation only serves to point up the bloody futility and
counterproductive character of our military presence in Afghanistan.
Meanwhile, on the home front the official denial about the
nature and magnitude of the jihad threat will continue, with training material
for the FBI and Department of Homeland Security required to retail politically
correct fictions about Islam and jihad rather than anything that could give law
enforcements a comprehensive and correct understanding of the threat that faces
us. This will leave the nation in ever-increasing danger of being blindsided by
a jihad attack that could have been prevented had a willful ignorance about the
motives and goals of jihadists not been enforced by officials at the highest
level. Once those officials are torn away from their preoccupation with “right
wing extremism” back to reality, it could be too late.
Continuing also will be the Obama Administration’s war
against the freedom of speech. His signing on to the UN’s Resolution 16/18,
calling for criminalization of “incitement to religious hatred,” was a telling
indication of the direction he has consistently taken. For who will judge what
constitutes “religious hatred”? Truthful speech about Islam and jihad is almost
certain to be included under this rubric, and truth will be no defense. Obama’s
rush to blame the Muhammad video for the jihad attack on our consulate in
Benghazi is just the latest indication of how anxious he is to throw the
freedom of speech under the bus. Expect an Obama second term to enact “hate
speech” laws that will make enunciating the truth about the jihad threat a
criminal offense.
We are also certain to see, if Obama is reelected tomorrow,
more pressure from his Justice Department on American businesses and
educational institutions to provide special accommodation and privileges for
Muslims. Last year Obama’s DoJ forced a Chicago-area school district to pay a
Muslim teacher, Safoorah Khan, $75,000 in back pay, fees and damages for not
giving her three weeks off during the school year so she could make the hajj. Second-term
Muslim accommodation suits are likely to dwarf that amount, and in the process
do serious damage to the American principle of equality of rights for all.
And the jihad plots against the U.S. will continue as well. Although
he was ballyhooed as the man who understood Islam and the Muslim world, and
would finally bridge the ever widening gap between Muslim countries and the
West, Obama has instead presided over increasing tensions, increasing dangers,
increasing hatred and belligerence from emboldened Islamic jihadists.
And if Barack Obama is President of the United States for
the next four years, they will just get bolder still.

As America is still, just, the leader of the free world, those on this side of the pond who know, hope for a Romney win. By God, if he does, you all have some work to do cleaning out the stables.
Go to it America.

So many good slogans, so few protest signs.
The fog of war is between Obama’s ears.
The buck stops behind Hillary’s skirt.
Ambasador Stevens is dead. Alqueda is alive.
Brian Terry and over 300 Mexicans are dead. The drug cartels are alive.
The president who goes to Vegas (during time of crisis) aught to stay in Vegas.
Time for the MAN to take over our national security and for the BOY to play basketball and golf.
Jeb Bush said that Obama acts like a ten year old, which I have been saying for some time.

Obama is always talking about shared sacrifice, economic justice, and social justice. Exactly what does all that mean?
What is Obama’s share of the shared sacrifice? Can you name anything? Anything at all? I didn’t think so.
Am I a victim of economic injustice because my socian security check isn’t as big as Obama’s pay check?
Am I a victim of social injustice because I have to wait in line at the supermarket and Obama dosen’t?
I understand that us taxayers have to pay 1.4 billion a year to support Obama’s lavish lifestyle. Was that about twenty times as much as the British taxpayers have to pay to support the royal family? Talk about being out of touch! At least Romney is out of touch with his own money. Does this make the Queen a victim of economic injustice?
Perhaps a good example of social and economic injustice would be the people freezing and starving on Staten Island while Obama heads off to party in Vegas.

My prediction if osama obama wins… Texas may declare independence. Alaska may want to join Canada. The Confederate states may also declare independence. Michigan may demand independence to be a muslim state. What America has is the the most divisive president in US history. The outlook is not good.

No. But with Democrat liberal videos proclaiming “if the Republicans steal the election from Obama we will burn this fucking country down.”, if we do vote out the Democrats, liberals and socialists, look for four hard years ahead. it does not look good.

@Lenin-McCarthy
I pretty much agree with you, because when Obama stated: “The future must not belong to those who slander the prophet of Islam.” he kinda made it plain where his loyalties lie and lie and lie. The big problem is that the governor of Texas doesn’t seem much better. I believe he married his daughter off to a scuzzlum.

“Expect an Obama second term to enact “hate speech” laws that will make enunciating the truth about the jihad threat a criminal offense.”
Write as many books as you can prior to his attempt of enacting any such law. Be proactive, people.

I quote part of this article
” . And since the caliph is the only one authorized (and required) in Islamic law to wage offensive jihad against Infidels, if they succeed in choosing one, the result will not be happy for America and the West.”
I think you missed the fact that Obama IS ” the Caliph” a call by a prominent Pakistani Islamic authority for Obama to be the Caliph of all muslims.. He already IS and he is waging the jihad from the White House aided by his propaganda arm, the American Media. It seems most Americans are not aware of this, seeing they elected him for another term…can’t fix stupid, I guess..
