The "Children Bombs" of Islamic Fundamentalists | Socyberty

Recently, Glen Beck of Fox News was opining about radical Muslim clerics and leaders and their effect on politics throughout the Arab world, and the recent turmoil in many Middle Eastern countries. He quoted a radical cleric as offering that ” the children bombs” would continue until “liberation.” 

 Are you sure the cleric wasn’t referring to the ” population explosion” of Muslims as the  “bomb” that continues until liberation? Mightn’t there be multiple definitions, because as we have seen, so many Muslim statements have hidden meanings?

   The Muslim Crusades continue apace, and have for a generation, with over 50 million Muslims emigrating, with many “crusading,” in over  30 countries around the world.  Muslims number just over one and one-half Billion and are growing at twice the rate of Christians, the number one  faith, and who are  growing ever more slowly, even declining, in many areas. Christian faith in modern times is nowhere near as “fundamentalist” or fervored as that of Muslims, whose ability to put a mantle of religiosity on sacrifice far outpaces that of Christians.

   If there is a Muslim terrorist “Caliphate Strategy,” it doesn’t only have to include terrorism threats as methods of control, it could just as easily include filled ballot boxes driven by a Muslim population explosion, as they are so rapidly doing in many Middle Eastern countries. Evidence recent opportunistic efforts by the Muslim Brotherhood and all it’s affiliates, in Lebanon, Jordan, Egypt, Tunisia, Sudan, and many more, with  emulators and chapters in over 70 countries.

   That we haven’t recognized the  population explosion for what it is, an “army of liberation,” is just near-sightedness on our part. And, let’s remember that in the radicalist ideology, population may be just as potent a weapon, if not more so, than the short term effect of terrorism, albeit it very effective. Westerners tend to think in much shorter time frames than the Islamics, whose culture and history  extols waiting generations, if need be, to extract revenge for perceived family, clan, and tribe offense. If democracy’s weakness is a mirror image of it’s strength-representative government-then using our strengths against us seems to be a great “Plan B.”

   Much as I’d like to add the “children bombs” to the terrorist lexicon, in this context I believe the quote  referred to “population bombs” not suicide bombers.I’d also like to point out that the U.S. and other countries, but  primarily the U.S., has spent over two and one-half Trillion (that’s Trillions with a big “T” folks!) on security related issues-equipment, people, and military actions since 9/11.  The worst of this effort is that when we depart from these “liberation” wars and our nation building efforts, we we be offering up  ever more fertile populations, with U.S. resources, to the possible manipulation of Islamic radicals.

   Keep in mind that their Family, Clan and Tribal loyalties and religious affiliations and manipulations, started long before Western secular influences entered, and it’s not hard to imagine them quickly, even overnight, reverting to the  traditions and religious influences that have controlled that part of the world for thousands of years.Perhaps Islamic radicalism has taken a page from the Reagan playbook, “We’ll force them to spend so much money, we’ll win by bankrupting them.” Sound reasonable?

   My point is there are multiple “arrows” in the Islamist quiver and we need to be alert for new and perhaps even more pages in their “playbook.”As in the Cold War, we are fighting the  “Domino Theory,” in this case, however, it is Islam and religious fundamentalism, rather than Communism, that propels this long-term “war”-this modern day Crusade.
