What Huckabee Did Not Say "Vote For Obama And Go To Hell"



I heard a radio host say this morning that "Huckabee is being quoted all over the internet that "If you vote for Obama, you are going to hell." Of course, the liberal host did not check out the quote but merely mimicked the Daily Kos, Slate, Democratic Underground,  and a host of  other lying liberal outlets.I had a chance to call the host and rebuke him - in a Biblical manner, of course.

Huckabee did say, simply, ""Your vote will affect the future and be recorded in eternity." This benign, vanilla comment was taken badly by the left as some sort of warning, that people will be judged by what they do in this life, before God, before entering, or not entering, into an eternal life with God, as promised by Jesus Christ to  believers - a basic tenant of the Christian faith.

The Left, the authors of atheism and communism, have no qualms about promoting Islam and its fundamentals around the world, especially the Arab Spring, but Christianity is their greatest enemy. Christians merely tell people, according to the Gospels, what Jesus said, " Truly, truly, I say to you, He that hears my word, and believes on him that sent me, has everlasting life, and shall not come into condemnation; but is passed from death to life.".John 5:24 The obvious conclusion is that you will not have eternal life (as opposed to eternal condemnation) if you do not believe in God via the Way, The Truth, and The Life.

So, what's all the hubbub?  Atheists tell you there is no God to answer to, and Muslims will behead you if you speak against Allah or Mohammad. Christians, in general, do not riot or terrorize, like Communists and Muslims, if someone ridicules Jesus. Our God is a God of mercy - His mercy endureth forever - but not so the commies and muslims, or peripheral communsits like the American and European Left.

They will send you to a Gulag or behead you. We merely proclaim the Good News that one does not have spend eternity away from God.In fact, even now, we can enjoy what the Bible calls a portion of the Kingdom of Heaven on earth, ie., righteousness, peace, and joy in the Holy Spirit. Amen.

Obama & Company Using Beatles To Prove He Is Woman's Best Friend

When questioned about his role in the Benghazi fiasco by Bryan Williams of NBC News, President Obama answered  by reconfirming that he was going to defend women's rights by making available an unlimited lifetime supply of abortions and contraception.

I Watched The Last Presidential Debate. I Saw A Robot

Call it "postjudice,"or the making of a decision after examining gobs of evidence. I could not watch President Obama speak so peevishly and snarkily last night without also remembering so many of his cold and inhumane decisions, like voting as an Illinois  Senator to allow newborn babies, which escaped the abortionist's deadly scalpel, to lay until dead in the back room of a hospital's baby delivery room. I could not unremember him referring to the brutal rape and torture of ambassador Stevens as a "bump in the road," instigated by a "hateful anti Moslem video." Where were you, Mitt, on that one?  I could not disassociate President Obama from his Czars, while watching  the debate, nor could I not think of his Machiavellian and totalitarian EPA strangling American production. Despite President Obama's supposed thuggish win in the last debate, all I saw was a loser.Just the thought of Obamacare sums up dreams of Soviet Russia, which was very enthusiastic about government health care in the early part of the twentieth century, but then found out what a horrible, inefficient waste it would become - too late.

Nevertheless and notwithstanding,  that was not the sole reason for judging the President as an automaton in last night's debate. Even a Manchurian candidate would have had more feeling and a sense of respectability. He peevishly taught Mitt Romney, as an arrogant Harvard professor would that, "We have fewer bayonets and horses and we have planes which land on aircraft carriers, etc." Well, duh.

I saw a dark man (not skin color) who had nothing behind his eyes,nor did I see anything but a well trained robot spouting off jabs and zingers, with smiles and Biden-type smirks and faces, which would surely enliven  his robotoid supporters.

President Obama's strategy was merely to throw crap out there and present himself as a sucker punching gladiator - no holds barred.That he did, but there was hardly a knockout. In recent previous weeks, President Obama and Biden have been hammering out their "Save The Woman" campaign, falling over each other offering women what they do not desire most - unlimited Free Abortions and Contraceptives.They really shot their wad (in a Colonial musketry sense), not knowing that most women are not so obsessed with abortion as those hardcore, mustachioed, short-haired  feminists of yesteryear like Bella Abzug, Gloria Steinhem, Betty Friedan, and more modern big pro abort ladies like Eva Longoria, Gloria Allred, Stephanie Cutter, and Sarah Silverman see (Sarah Silverman . . . likens Mitt Romney’s head to a lady part).

Astonishingly, and all of a sudden during last night's debate, President  Obama was best friends with Bebe Netanyahu - although he  passed up a meeting with Bebe in order to fly off to a meet and greet fundraiser with Jayzee and Beyonce, instead of meeting with the venerable Prime Minister of Israel. I mean, like the President has been doing this for 4 years - campaigning and apologizing as opposed to taking care of business, at home and abroad.

On foreign policy, the alleged subject of the debate, the only thing the President can claim is that he has attained the endorsements of Fidel Castro, Hugo Chavez, and Mahmoud Ahmadinejad. He killed one Osama Bin Laden, but he has resurrected  ten thousand more Bin Laden's during the Left's huge support of the Arab Spring. [My apologies to the Navy Seals, the real guys who got Bin Laden]

A possible added insult,  though CBS' Bob Schieffer seem to be even handed in his moderation of the debate; is that it has been reported that the audio technicians in the debate TV studio (CBS?) monkeyed with the audio levels - thus squelching Romney's voice.

Finally, don't be concerned about the lib CNN and CBS after-debate polls, as many of the same people polled, who gave Obama the debate victory,  said  they were voting for Romney for President of the U.S.A.

Lord willing, there is just one statement by President Obama which will remain truthful: "My Presidency
will be a one term proposition if the economy does not turn around."

Speaking Of Videos, Why No Mention Of Lybian Ambassador Chris Steven Torture/Rape Video?

As we look forward, or not, to Monday's final Presidential debate focused on U.S. foreign policy, it should be a slam dunk for Romney to expose the incomprehensible diplomatic policies of President Obama, Hillary Clinton, D.O.S, Susan Rice, representative to the United Nations, and everyone else connected to United States foreign policy decisions, including the Pentagon, CIA, NSA etc.

Obama has admitted that, "The Buck Stops Here," and Hillary Clinton has taken full responsibility for the Benghazi attacks with the reservation that there was bad decision making because of the Fog of War. Too bad they never gave W Bush the same tolerance when he misjudged  international operations.

Democrats have never boasted to be big defenders of the U.S. Constitution, much less American interests.at home and abroad.  JFK promised the Bay of Pigs invaders help, but pulled out the rug - in the middle of their attack on Cuba. Teddy Kennedy supported winning the Vietnam War introduced by Lyndon B. Johnson, but then he thought it better to cut and run. When the U.S. was fighting Communism in Latin America, Kennedy, Kerry, and a slew of Democrats, of course, reversed course for political reasons. Jimmy Carter should be added to the list of Americans who made an ill planned attempt to rescue Americans taken hostage in Iran. The unfortunate suicide bombing of the Marine Barracks in Lebanon was under the supervision of a multi national force, not U.S. President Reagan directly, which explains why we do better when not encumbered by international types. Who can forget Black Hawk Down when   President Clinton refused to reinforce Army Rangers Delta Force who begged for more armament in Mogadishu in 1993, but were refused. As a result 20 soldiers died, 80 were wounded and tortured,  and one helicopter pilot taken prisoner.

Now comes Ambassador Chris Stevens, a gay man, according to sources, who is sent to an extremely  non secure area inhabited by Islamic radicals, refreshed after a bloody and violent uprising, who take pleasure in torturing and killing homosexuals.  Hillary and Company's PC ideology has always been proud of forcing social engineering in the U.S. and everywhere else on earth, thinking of it as  a great triumph for liberalism. Hillary and Company  (Pentagon included) disallow any sort of Christian witnessing, carrying a Bible, or anything of the sort, but send a gay may out among gay killers - that will show 'em! I have had friends employed by the State Department, who can testify that anti Christian bias  has been wreaking harassment in that agency for many years.

Since even Fox News has not mentioned the horrific video of the sexual assault on Chris Stevens, I doubt that Romney will bring it up in the next debate, even though THIS IS THE VIDEO which should evoke outrage at the highest  levels among Americans For a less graphic version of the video, Michael Savage does a good job of describing it here.

I have little doubt that Hillary Clinton, Obama, National Security, CIA, NSA etc. had knowledge of this extremely graphic and masochistic killing of Chris Stevens early on, but decided that  they rather shift the public's attention  toward the anti-Mohammad video made in the U.S.A. in order to point the blame toward what else? An American.

Where is the outrage?

Obama & The Democrats Favorite Deadly Sin - Greed, Or Is It Envy?

We have several  generations of Americans now living who have never been exposed to such principles as "Do Not Covet Thy Neighbor's Goods (or wife, for that matter), nor have they been trained in the harm  evoked from not loving thy neighbor as themselves. A secular society can only breed selfishness, envy, and greed. And, God forbid that they have ever entertained the dangerous consequences of committing any or all of the Seven Deadly Sins: Wrath, Greed, Sloth, Pride, Lust, Envy, and Gluttony.

The entire Democrat philosophy,platform, ideology can be summed up in their desire to take, redistribute, or otherwise steal their neighbor's money and livelihood for their own "higher" use. It is so fixed in President Obama's mind that "white entitlement" has repressed the poor, especially blacks, that he and a vast majority of liberal blacks and whites have unconscionably promised their voters that trillions of dollars of future indebtedness  may now be placed at the disposal and whims of those who can never achieve white entitlement, or so they say.

Frontpage.Com Magazine has an excellent story explaining how public schools are deprogramming conservative teachers in camp-type settings   so that they may understand that poor, black students cannot help but to remain forever  "dumb" because of  their slave history. Sort of reminds me of a book written by a brilliant black author Joseph Phillips who, after experiencing the harassment of his fellow black classmates for wanting to excel in school, wrote a book, "He Talk Like A White Boy." The theme should be self explanatory

Liberals thought that the Hate Crimes Law - enacted during those terrible four years 2006-2010 - would give even more privilege to minorities, which it did. The Hate Crimes Laws justifies black/gay animosity against whites - purporting that only white men (mainly) can hate, and minorities are not capable of such hate, because they "are not in power." Its a scam that's gone on since the 1960's. Democrats, greedy for power, will stoop to anything, including the much misunderstood Lilly Ledbetter act in order to illegitimately grab - more power. Lilly Ledbetter, who was hired by Goodyear in the first place, because of Affirmative Action laws, was  reportedly not the best of supervisors and consequently was not paid as much as other more proficient employees.The Democrats, forever salivating to get OP (other people's money), wedged the Ledbetter act into law during their reign of terror..

Public Education which donates heavily to Democrats,  as it was  rewarded with billions of dollars in stimulus money from the President, has found the key to extorting more and more money from the American population on a yearly basis - "Its for the kids," they perpetually insist. Even as grades and discipline plummet in American schools, and as third world countries overtake the U.S. in math, science, and even English.

One ancient prescription for taxes from the Bible, as directed by God Himself to the Israelites postulated that , "The rich shall not pay more, and the poor shall not pay less" for one particular tax Genesis 30:15. One tenth was another tax that was to be paid by poor and rich alike. God did not institute a progressive tax. The liberals concocted  it, probably  because, as always and in every way, the libs want to appear more generous than God - you know the "Guy" they booed at the Democratic Convention.

Libs, who look more socialist every day, wanting to even out and redistribute other people's money, often piously recite that we all are "Our brother's keeper." They do not mind at all to wrongly abuse  a scriptural passage from Genesis by misquoting Cain who asked God, "Am I my brother's keeper?" which was a taunt directed toward the Almighty after God asked Cain where his brother was. You know, the Abel, who Cain just killed. Its never below Democrats to misquote God. Quite hypocritically, its the Dems who fight like rabid dogs to rid God from government as well as public discourse. Yet, they wrongly throw out the "We are our brother's keeper," response when it suits them. Greed is quite the motivator.

Democrats, rich and poor, have been hardwired after so many years to lustily  eye everyone else's money as exemplified by President Obama, who  alluded that his pension, 'Is not as big as Mitt Romney's.'

Unions, being the selfish Dems they are, have no care for the profitability or viability of a company or government agency for which they work. They will lie, obstruct, and anything else  necessary to get in the pockets of their fellow Americans - as their neighbor's household income diminishes by the month. Greed.

The best model for the deadly sin of Greed must be President Obama who insists that, even though taxing the rich upward to 70%(all taxes, including state) will not relieve the public debt, he is intent on getting into their pockets, because the Dunphys, Frank Marshall Davis, Bill Ayers,Saul Alinski, Barack Sr.. et al of Obama's advisers thought, and think, that they can be fairer than God.

Time To Fire The General Who Fired The Colonel Who Taught Dangers Of Radical Islam?

Now Is The Time For All Good Men To Come To The Aid Of Their Country by sending a   Facebook message to Joint Chief of Staff Chairman Army General Martin Dempsey at http://www.facebook.com/GENDempsey

In the past few days, General Dempsey railed against an 18 year combat veteran, Lieutenant Colonel Matthew Dooley, for teaching a course Perspectives on Islam and Radical Islamization, which rightly portrays a segment of Islam as "radical." Who would guess? For all practical purposes, Lieutenant Colonel Dooley's decorated career is over, because of this dressing down from the highest military command.According to reports, 57 Islamic organizations petitioned President Obama to "severely discipline" and "purge" any such instructors who would identify Islam as anything  other than a religion of peace, I guess. This sort of cowardice explains how one Major Hasan , Army psychiatrist, was able to go undetected and unreported for his virulent anti-American and pro terrorist attitude at Fort Hood before  2009, when he killed or wounded over 40 U.S. soldiers, while shouting "Allahu Akbar!"

Please, support the Thomas More Law Center which is defending Lt Col Dooley.

The Pentagon is in the midst of gutting our armed forces of its long time traditional religious morale based, unashamedly, on the God of Our Fathers, which has  not only been a traditional Army hymn, but an actual devotion by United States soldiers, sailors, and Marines for over two hundred years. What was considered counter productive by George Washington and countless other military leaders through the centuries - buggery - is now applauded and praised by the Department of Defense with great fanfare and even parades! Christian Chaplains are discouraged from even mentioning "Jesus" in many of their ceremonies. All this disrespect for God has no doubt floated down from the top - Potus Pilate, if you will. Hopefully, Romney will reverse this attitude,as well as many other of Obama's policies.

After so many bad reports, one has to wonder who's side General Dempsey is on - other than President Obama's. I know the U.S. Armed Forces have to serve at the pleasure of the Commander In Chief, but I don't think there is a law demanding that they have to be toadies for everything the President dictates. I'll have to consult constitutional scholar Mark Levin on that one.

General Dempsey's name keeps popping up in the news - because of his attitude that does not seem to very well regard the welfare of the American soldiers he oversees.

Last month, after more of our troops were ambushed by the same Afghani soldiers they were training, General Dempsey, it was reported, demanded that U.S. forces undergo additional "sensitivity training," so they could more fully understand the feelings and sensitivities of our Islamic foes.

General Dempsey has also been in the news as of late for cowering before the Florida Pastor Terry Jones, pleading with him not to show that  video that was inciting riots - according to the Obama administration, but no one else.

In another recent event, General Dempsey attacked Republicans for refuting his claims that drastic cuts could easily  be made in the military  despite the consensus of the majority of military brass, staff and advisers.

In still another unbelievable decision by the highest commanding military officer in the United States, Republicans  grilled  him on his possible opinion that, "There is no need for members of the military to vote." Paraphrased


Send your opinions to General Dempsey at http://www.facebook.com/GENDempsey 
Here's mine -  "Gen Dempsey, As a disability retired Marine, medevaced out of Vietnam in 1970, considering your dressing  down of LTC Matthew Dooley for no reason, not correcting President Obama on military matters, cowering before a Florida church pastor over "the video," promoting the end of Don't Ask Dont Tell, and, possibly, hindering your own armed forces from voting, I kindly ask you to resign, retire, retrograde to the rear, or whatever is most convenient for you. Now we know how such a renegade terrorist as Major Nidal Hasan was able to have so much freedom to be intolerant, and eventually kill or wound over 40  members of your own army. Sensitivity can kill, sir." 

PS Even the beautiful CBS 60 Minute correspondent Lara Logan, as of late, has clearly exposed the ineffective touchy-feely attitude of the President toward our natural born killer enemies here.

President Obama - Ladies Man, Adored By Single Young Females

Is it the way he jogs up to the Presidential podium, as his  fists bounce together  in perfect timing? Is it his slim figure decked out in high-end designer, Hart Schaffner Marx (Yes, Marx, no kidding) suits that gets the attention of  contraceptive hungry young ladies? Maybe, its Obama's hanging with the in crowd like the Limp Pimp, Jay Z/Beyonce, or George Clooney. Why does one of the Judd girls (Naomi?) fawn over him? Eva Longoria loves him, according to a recent commercial,  and she, if anyone, knows a good man, or should I say she has known a number of men - two husbands of which, were  kicked to the curb. Even Madonna gave out an honorary shout to Barack, on stage, proclaiming that he was a "Bleeping Moslem." Later, Madonna offered a contorted explanation for  her "complement." President Eye Candy is far from that President W, who was constantly faulted by NY Times Maureen Dowd for W's "cowboy swagger."

Mr. Cool, President Obama, has always reminded me of a Mohair Sam - "Fast Talkin, Slow Walkin, Good Looking   Mohair Sam," and not because of his race. President Clinton, the slickster,  could easily be described by that famous Rhythm and Blues  song from the mid sixties. Mitt Romney is that conservative, straight laced dad, who would train a daughter from a very young age to not be needing  an allowance to buy thousands of dollars worth (according to Sandra Flucke) of Morning After Pills and other assorted baby destroying drugs. Mitt and Ann Romney have re decided against abortion, but Obama has already claimed that abortion for his daughters would not be a problem.Women's rights, today, translate to the freedom for women to dispose of that living appendage in their gut. The Democratic Convention made it clear in Charlotte that its main platform was to 1) Furnish free abortion pills, 2)Boo Jerusalem, and 3)Boo God..

Maybe, the young lady demographic which  heavily supports  Obama, believes that he will advance their careers, not only by making babies more disposable, but also through opening up the dismal jobs market for them.However, the Bureau of Labor Statistics has been showing a steady decline of young women in the workforce - 55% down from a high in 1989 of 72%. The unemployment rate is about 16% now for young women, and there is no improvement foreseen.

Possibly, these young American women are suffering a sort of Stockholm Syndrome attachment to Obama and the Democrats. The worse they are treated, the more they obey their bad boy masters. I see it all the time in these real life murder detective stories on cable. Young women are rarely responsible for the murders, drugging, and robberies they commit, because they are "under the control" of some domineering boyfriend. No equal rights there.

The Lily Ledbetter Act was a another deceiving Democrat-pushed piece of legislative crap (like the Violence Against Women Act, and the Hate Crimes Laws) that promises women a winning lawsuit,  courtesy of the Equal Employment Opportunity people, if they only "think" they have been discriminated against on the job. Better, and easier, than winning the lottery. Affirmative action (boosting women, and racial minorities) has so far boosted them into unproductive, government dependent jobs in state agencies, teaching positions,  and anything connected with Uncle Sam. Because of this, government and business has become more inefficient and wasteful. No thanks, Democrats.There are plenty of qualified women that can do most anything - unfortunately  they are mostly conservative, and no real value to the Dems.

Younger non-college women, with child, without husband, are a shoe-in for Obama, mainly because of the massive amount of benefits available to them (tax free) ranging from $10,000 to $20,000 per year, depending upon the state delivering the Obama money, but why would younger college women support Obama when 53% of recent college graduates are unemployed? There is also the good argument that the U.S. is producing  too many college graduates - perpetually inflating the education bubble, mainly with women.

Debate: Obama Can Whip-Up A Crowd, Just Cannot Address One

It must be laziness (no racialist intention here) that accompanied President Obama into the Denver auditorium to debate (or try to) Mitt Romney. The President has become so accustomed to speaking to his suckupophants, that he imagined it would be a breeze overwhelming Mitt with his now challenged charisma.

For years, Obama has staged press conferences with the adoring press tossing him softees,except for some lone Fox wolves giving him a little jab here and there. Everywhere the President has traveled,  campaigning for the past 4 years, his devotees have filled his venues, exploding with rapturous cheer wherever his holiness appeared.

Now comes a debate, devoid of applause, sans teleprompter, and no one to converse with but Mitt Romney and the affable PBS host, Jim Lehrer - who makes a good case for not refunding Public Broadcasting.

As we have seen in recent tapes when  Obama is speaking to Black pastors, he has no trouble in taking on his southern, hot collar preaching  mode, and whipping up a crowd into a frenzy. Unfortunately, when Obama is not performing in the presence of racialist audiences, who cannot glorify him with a shout or two, he comes off as a dud.  And, no thanks to John Kerry for his invaluable "debate coaching," which also rendered the President as boring as Kerry.

Of course, the media, having trouble blaming O too much, cast aspersions on the moderator, Jim Leherer, who "Let Romney take over the debate." Conservatives generally think it unseemly to overly gloat, but Romney clearly ate Obama's lunch - and, not one of those Michelle school lunches with the fried sweet potatoes. Romney clearly  got the beef last night.

When Jim Carville nicknames Romney, "Chainsaw Mitt," and when Chris Matthews shouts, "What is Romney doing? He's winning!!," you know that  the end is near.

Joint Chiefs Army General Blames "Insensitive" Soldiers For Friendly Fire On Own U.S. Troops

Yes, the same Army General who has bent over frontwards to welcome gays into the military, and the same Army General who called Florida Pastor Terry Jones begging him not to air the video about Mohammad, has again put his 4 Star General hat in his hand, reciting the Obama apologist - to everything- view - that our Unites States troops abroad may need more sensitivity training. With these sort of people at the supreme head of our armed forces, have we lost our ability to identify enemies, much less ever again beat them?

Afghan security forces, our supposed allies, are slaughtering American troops. Thirty-three soldiers have been killed by “green on blue” attacks this year alone. The situation is so bad that the training of Afghan forces has been temporarily suspended.

How has the Pentagon responded?

By blaming our troops.

Top officials believe culturally offensive behavior is the motivation behind the killings, so it’s stepped up Islamic sensitivity training for our troops.

If you don’t want to be shot in the back by your Afghan training partners, the Pentagon advises, don’t offend their religious sensibilities. Don’t kick your feet up on a table, for instance, and never ask to see a picture of their wives and kids. “There’s a percentage [of attacks] which are cultural affronts,” Joint Chiefs Chairman Gen. Martin Dempsey said...

 in a recent interview

No matter how sensitive American soldiers are, Afghans continue to protest the United States.

Dempsey echoes the concerns of Gen. Sher Mohammad Karimi, the Afghan National Army’s chief of staff, who earlier this month argued both sides need to do more to “teach” foreign troops Islamic traditions and values to reduce the chance of violent reactions to cultural slights.

AFGHAN INSIDE ATTACK KILLS US TROOPS: OFFICIALS

“It is our duty to teach this to them. Our indifference about these issues causes the incident,” he said.

In the past three years, uniformed Afghans have murdered at least 97 US and NATO troops.

The Taliban has taken credit for many of the attacks, but the Pentagon has been reluctant to admit widespread infiltration of the Afghan security forces it’s training.

Standing up a national army and police force that can protect the US-sponsored government in Kabul is the linchpin of President Obama’s announced 2014 withdrawal strategy.

Some 120,000 American and other foreign troops mix closely with 350,000 Afghan security forces. Afghan trainees and guards are co-located on US bases, where they share bathrooms, gyms and mess halls.

To avoid offending them, US commanders are putting troops through intense Muslim sensitivity training. Among other things, they’ve been ordered to:

* Wear surgical gloves whenever handling a copy of the Koran.

* Never walk in front of a praying Muslim.

* Never show the bottom of boots while sitting or lying across from a Muslim, which in Islam is considered an insult.

* Never share photos of wives or daughters.

* Never smoke or eat in front of Muslims during the monthlong Ramadan fasting.

* Avoid winking, cursing or nose-blowing in the presence of Muslims — all viewed as insults in Islam.

* Avoid exiting the shower without a towel.

* Avoid offering and accepting things with the left hand, which in Islam is reserved for bodily hygiene and considered unclean.

Troops who violate the sensitivity rules face severe punishment.

Military officials who have done tours in Afghanistan are outraged that brass would even suggest US troops are partly to blame for their own murders.

“I would like to see a public affairs officer explain to the press where showing the bottom of your shoe to a Muslim or shaking with your left hand was legitimate grounds for murder,” growled one US Army official.

They say their Muslim partners would still resent them even if they followed their Islamic protocols to the letter.

“The cultural affronts excuse is a bunch of garbage,” a senior US Army intelligence official told me. “The Afghans that know we’re doing all this PC cultural sensitivity crap are laughing their asses off at our stupidity.”

Explained the intelligence official: “They’re killing us because we’re ‘infidels’ occupying Islamic lands. It’s what the Koran and every imam over there is telling them, and no amount of cultural sensitivity is going to stop that or change the fact that we’re ‘infidels.’ ”

Indeed, a Taliban video released last month revealed uniformed Afghans are itching for a chance to “kill infidels.”

“I opened fire on three Americans who were sitting together,” a rogue Afghan soldier, identified as Ghazi Mahmood, says while smiling for the camera. “The reason I killed them is because they have occupied our country. They are enemies of our religion.”

Internally, the military has acknowledged the larger religious problem. A May 2011 study commissioned by the US Army says “fratricidal” assaults by uniformed Afghans stem in part from Afghan religious attitudes that their American counterparts are “infidel bullies.” (The same report says US troops regarded their Afghan training partners as “treacherous and murderous radicals” secretly colluding with the Taliban.)

Further pointing up the absurdity of putting troops through Islamic finishing school: The intelligence official notes that if there are any truly obnoxious cultural offenses, they are committed by Afghan trainees quartered inside our bases.

“They like to stand on our toilets and poop all over them,” he said.

Why? They refuse to touch the toilet seats used by the “dirty infidels” they’re training and living with.

Paul Sperry is a Hoover Institution media fellow and author of “Infiltration.”
