Siding with the “religion of peace”: Obama, Bush, Brzezinski…

By Julio Severo

Barack Obama, in his biography “The Audacity of Hope,” says about Muslims, “I will stand with them should the political winds shift in an ugly direction.”

So if the Western world begins to reject the U.S. presidential propaganda portraying Islam as a “religion of peace” and begins to treat this religion as a cowardly ideology slaughtering innocents, Obama commits himself to side with the oppressors.

Remember: by far Islam is the ideology most martyrizing Christians around the world each year.

It would be so good if the U.S. had a president who said, “I will stand with Christians now that the U.S. and Western fad is to flatter Islam.”

Of course, if some other nation dares to side with Christians and goes against the Islamic ideology, it will face Obama and U.S. sanctions.

There is no hope in the two major U.S. parties. The U.S. president who began the deceptive propaganda of Islam a “religion of peace” was not Obama. It was Bush. The U.S. policy, in the two parties, shamelessly licks Islamic boots.

So did everything begin with Bush? No. Everything began decades ago, more strongly during the Jimmy Carter administration, who was a liberal precursor of Obama. For Brazil, Carter is remembered as the man who protected Leonel Brizola and other communists from the military. It was also under Carter that the U.S. government began to collect papers against the military rule in Brazil. Some of these papers were delivered to the Brazilian administration of socialist Dilma Rousseff months ago to help the infamous ‘Truth’ National Committee.

Another significant fact is that Carter had a strategic adviser who helped the U.S. in geopolitical and military issues. His name is Zbigniew Brzezinski. His strategy was to use Islamic terrorism against the Soviet Union.

As far as the moral aspect is concerned, Islamic terrorism is wicked and so was the Soviet Union. Both deserved to be annihilated. Brzezinski’s strategy was to use one to annihilate the other.

Check here the video where Brzezinski flatters Islamic terrorists: http://youtu.be/pErfG5ki8D8

So Brzezinski helped in the birth and funding of al-Qaida, which was created to be a terror for the Soviet Union, but it got completely out of control and eventually became a terror to the whole world. Brzezinski’s old ally, Osama bin Laden, later used all his experience as a former CIA agent to torment the world with his al-Qaida. It is a perfect example of schemes backfiring. Not much different of ISIS, which, according to WND, also was born with U.S. assistance.

Deservedly, the Soviet Union fell, but Brzezinski’s strategic policies (anti-Russia, U.S.-Islamic alliance) keep guiding the U.S.

In his 1997 book “The Grand Chessboard,” Brzezinski contends that the U.S. have a worldwide hegemony in the main domains. He says,

“America stands supreme in the four decisive domains of global power: militarily… economically… technologically… and culturally.”

The only area, according to Brzezinski, that is not under total U.S. control is the Eurasian region, an area of interest for the U.S. (which has no border there), for Turkey (which occupies a small part of it) and for Russia (which occupies a major part of that region).

About Russia’s Islamic neighbors, Brzezinski foresees “something worse” than “the painful precedents of Chechnya” may happen. “The Grand Chessboard” says, “For the Russians, the specter of a potential conflict with the Islamic states along Russia's entire southern flank (which, adding in Turkey, Iran, and Pakistan, account for more than 300 million people) has to be a source of serious concern.” Of course, as evidenced by Brzezinski’s anti-Russian pro-Islam history, if Islam is a big threat to Russia, nothing more strategic than the U.S. helping in the fulfillment of Brzezinski’s “foresight” by expanding the radical Islamic influence in those regions.

His book talks sparingly about worries over communist threat, but it address abundantly Russia as an enemy to be conquered. Brzezinski’s main worry is to extend U.S. hegemony to Eurasia.

Partially, because of those hegemonic ambitions the U.S. keeps its alliance and flattery to Islam.

Guided by nationalism and ignoring ideological differences, the two major parties follow their tradition of supporting Islam. So the U.S. helped to create al-Qaida. The Soviet Union ended, but both parties have had a hard time to quit old habits.

With them, the U.S. has been faithful to its Islamic allies, especially Saudi Arabia, which is the main funder of the international Islamic terrorism. Not to mention Turkey, which has become a major threat by striving after an Islamic expansion in Latin America. Turkey is the only Muslim nation in the NATO, the U.S. military alliance.

For the sake of the anti-Russian pro-Islam strategy, all is allowed, including appointing Muslims to high-rank positions. Two years ago, Obama appointed a Muslim as CIA director. Even in the Department of Homeland Security, radical Muslims hold significant posts.

By following this strategy, the U.S.’s supreme message today is, “Islam is a religion of peace.” This deception has been embraced around the world, because the nation promoting this propaganda has, according to Brzezinski, the cultural and technological hegemony and supremacy.

The Soviet Union ended, but Brzezinski’s anti-Russia pro-Islam strategy remains. He and his followers will not be satisfied while the U.S. does not extend its supremacy to Eurasia, whatever it takes. And the cost of that hegemonic ambition will come through Islam.

Mohammed’s ‘pacifists’ can kill millions of innocents and the only message you are going to hear from the U.S. mass media is: Islam is a “religion of peace.”

Who is paying the cost of this deception? Abundant reports published by American specialists point that U.S. military interventions have been benefitting Islamic persecution of Christians. About 150 millions Christians are persecuted by Islam.

Approximately 100,000 Christians are martyrized each years. The big martyrizer is Islam. Even so, just because the U.S. has anti-Russia ambitions and wants to extend its hegemony to Eurasia, you have to swallow down the deceptive propaganda that Islam is a “religion of peace.”

Deception helps to kill, especially when it comes from a nation founded by persecuted evangelicals to help persecuted Christians. To help Islam in the worldwide persecution of Christians is a total departure from the original mission that the evangelical Founders had given to America.

The Vatican and four Muslim leaders jointly condemned attack in Paris as European elites fear conservative wave

By Julio Severo

Four French Muslim leaders and the Vatican issued a joint declaration Thursday denouncing the Paris newspaper massacre.

The declaration stressed that dialogue among religions was the only way to eliminate prejudice.

According to the Associated Press, the Vatican has sought to mend relations with Islam that were initially strained under Pope Benedict XVI, who in 2006 made a speech that suggested Islam espouses violence. His suggestion caused storms of protest throughout the Islamic world.

Even though Benedict said he had been misunderstood and apologized, Muslims never again forgot his suggestion.

Of course, the “attack” in Paris, usually mentioned without any “Muslim” or “Islamic” adjectives, just proves that Benedict’s “suggestion” was sheer reality.

Yet, European socialist elites are not worried about Islam and its violent nature. They are, according to the Associated Press, worried that “Populist movements warning of the Islamization of Europe have been gaining ground across the continent, in small countries like Denmark and large ones like Britain, Germany and France.”

These elites denounce “the arguments of rightwing forces declaring Islam to be incompatible with Western values.”

Some of the strongest responses to the Islamic terror in Paris came from Germany, and the Associated Press promptly reminded its international readers that the Nazi movement was born in Germany, insinuating that opposition to Islamization equals “racism” and “Nazism.”

German chancellor Angela Merkel has condemned PEGIDA, an anti-Islamization movement, declaring, “There is no place in Germany for those who are instigating hatred against immigrants.” She also denounced the protesters for “racism.”

The AP report also mentioned PEGIDA, and again, promptly reminded its readers that anti-Islamization protests “have alarmed politicians in Germany 70 years after the Holocaust.” The AP insinuation: European, especially German, feelings against Islamization are the seeds for a Holocaust against Muslim. Hey, the first Holocaust was against the Jews, and Muslim were allies of the Nazis. How can AP, an American media, associate Islamic radicals with Jew victims? How can AP use the Holocaust against Jews to defend Muslims?

Actually, Muslims, who 70 years ago helped Hitler in the first Holocaust against the Jews, today have been committing a yearly Holocaust of Christian martyrs. Besides, a larger Muslim population in Europe is provoking a larger persecution of Jews throughout Europe.

Immediately after talking about the Holocaust, AP mentions Geert Wilders, the leader of the anti-Islam Freedom Party.

So for Merkel and AP and the general Western media, if you oppose Islamization in Europe, you are a racist, a Nazi and support the Holocaust!

In the PS (Politically Socialist) Europe, there is no place for those opposed to Islamization. But there is plenty of places for Islamists.

In the PS Europe, there is no place and tolerance for conservative values, especially Jewish-Christian values, in the government and society. But there is plenty of places and tolerance for Islamic values, including Sharia, which are expanding throughout Europe.

Rabid multiculturalism has delivered the European destiny into the hand of her Islamic executioners.

Germans Protest Islam, Leftwing Media Denounces Putin

Lausanne, Theology of Integral Mission and Israel

By Julio Severo

The Lausanne Movement was in full force in Brazil, April 2014, to discuss its most important theological worry. No, no, their worry is not about Brazilian theologians — all of them adherents of the Theology of Integral Mission (TIM) — who work together with the ruling socialist Workers’ Party and its ideological campaign to advance its anti-family agenda in Brazil.

Their worry was exclusively neo-Pentecostals’ Prosperity Theology (PT).

According to the Brazilian leftist Protestant magazine Ultimato, “45 specialists from 17 nations — prominent thinkers, ministers and professionals — gathered together in Atibaia, SP (Brazil), from March 30—April 2 for the Lausanne Global Consultation on Prosperity Theology, Poverty and the Gospel.”

The consultation was headed by Valdir Steuernagel, a fervent TIM advocate. His religious roots, as exposed by the Portuguese essay “Por que esconder a real intenção da Teologia da Missão Integral?” (Why hide the Theology of Integral Mission’s real intent?), go back to his denomination, the Evangelical Church of Lutheran Confession, which embraces both the most radical variety of Christian Marxism — Liberation Theology — and its hardly watered Protestant version, TIM.

The second speech fell to Paul Freston, old TIM advocate. Freston, a former member of the Workers’ Party, has always been a staunch PT opponent.

The Portuguese essay “A maior ameaça à Igreja Evangélica do Brasil” (The Most Important Threat to the Brazilian Evangelical Church) explains why the most prominent PT opponents are TIM theologians.

The ruling Workers’ Party, in the person of Gilberto Carvalho, said that its most important worry are neo-Pentecostal televangelists, whose PT basic message is that the key supplier of all human needs should be God, as opposed to the proposal that the Workers’ Party and other radical socialist movements want to impose: government as a god supplier of all human needs.

These two visions — God-Supplier versus Government-Supplier — are at the core of the clash between socialists and neo-Pentecostals.

Carvalho, as the chief minister in the General-Secretariat of the Presidency of the Brazilian Republic, has a special friendly relationship with TIM theologians, including Ariovaldo Ramos. The most important adviser to Carvalho for the Workers’ Party administration in its relationship with the evangelical community is the Presbyterian theologian Alexandre Brasil, who receives a monthly wage of R$15,000 and has a classical pattern of TIM adherents: he has a book against PT.

The Global Consultation on Prosperity Theology also had a speech titled: “The New Apostolic Reformation and Prosperity Theology.”

The New Apostolic Reformation was founded by C. Peter Wagner, who in the 1st Lausanne Congress on World Evangelization in 1974 confronted left-wing theologians from Latin America who wanted to turn Lausanne into a platform for the Marxist ideology.

The central personality in the 1st Lausanne Congress was Billy Graham. Without him, there would have been no Lausanne, but even he did not expect repercussion on ideological level. When Graham perceived that the Protestant Left was trying to co-opt everything, he stopped funding Lausanne, and it displeased Brazilian Marxist Anglican Bishop Robinson Cavalcanti, an old Ultimato columnist, who openly charged that Lausanne was under a “hegemony from a conservative, white, anti-WCC (World Council of Churches) and anti-socialist group,” etc. (Poor Graham: white, Anglo-Saxon, conservative, etc!) Cavalcanti wanted Graham to continue in the Lausanne movement to raise funds to advance the TIM revolution. This revolution has been happening, but without Graham’s money and participation. Valdir Steuernagel, a TIM leader, has said that today Lausanne is much more TIM than ever. It is not, therefore, a movement with the Gospel’s face, but with the face of an ideology.

For his old opposition to the raging Left in Lausanne, even today C. Peter Wagner is criticized by the Protestant Left, and even by the secular Left, which has been denouncing his New Apostolic Reform.

Lausanne has become a movement of the Protestant Left. And as usual for every left-wing (secular or pseudo-Christian) movement, it sees neo-Pentecostals, especially their PT, as the most important threat to the advance of socialism. Yet, with theological tricks, the Protestant Left has changed slightly the rhetoric, by saying that PT is a threat to the Gospel.

Socialism in Lausanne is old. In the 1980s, Ultimato magazine was officially recommended by Lausanne for Brazilians. It was the incipient left-wing Lausanne promoting the Brazilian Protestant Left.

Today, Lausanne and Ultimato advance in their socialism, though the so-called “conservative” theological Presbyterian elite in Brazil, who have a fine relationship with Ultimato and TIM leaders, have had a hard time to recognize TIM in Lausanne or even in their own Presbyterian midst.

Ultimato is Presbyterian and it has controversial Presbyterian columnists in its magazine and publishing house, including Rev. Marcos Botelho, who had made the strange point that Christians have a duty to fight for people’s right to commit homosexual vices, and Rev. Rev. Luiz Longuini, a four-times divorced minister in PCB (Presbyterian Church of Brazil) and author of a book defending TIM.

Another Ultimato columnist, Marcos Amado, is the director for Latin America in the Lausanne Movement, and he has been writing articles to deconstruct the evangelical support for Israel. This deconstruction is a trend in the Protestant Left around the world, often led and spurred by well-funded U.S. Protestant groups.

Even the left-wing Jewish-American billionaire George Soros has invested millions to make evangelical views on Israel lesser positive. If I am asked how a Jew can campaign against Israel, my answer is that the same socialism that turns Jews against Israel also turns evangelicals against the Gospel. There are thousands of left-wing evangelicals with no sincere love for the Gospel, but passionate about using it as a platform for the socialist ideology, which typically opposes Israel.

In his deconstruction effort, Amado also shows, in Ultimato, that he is opposed to what he labels “evangelical Christian Zionism,” and he stresses that in 2014 he took part in a special conference at the Intercontinental Hotel in Bethlehem. This conference was “Christ at the CheckPoint,” which seeks to present Jesus as a “Palestinian” oppressed by Israelis.

In 2014 the Israeli government warned evangelicals around the world to steer clear of “Christ at the Checkpoint.” Notwithstanding the Israeli warning, the Lausanne Movement and the World Evangelical Alliance, two movements where Steuernagel has prominent leadership posts, have supported “Christ at the CheckPoint.” Steuernagel is also an Ultimato columnist.

Marcos Amado and Ultimato want you to avoid PT, neo-Pentecostals, Israel and Zionist evangelicals and they are already helping prepare Brazilian evangelicals for the “Christ at the CheckPoint” message, whose contents is the Palestinian Liberation Theology, a TIM sister.

Therefore, you should be worried when you read about theologians “worried” about PT or the so-called “evangelical Zionism.” Their “worry” has other interests.

Evidently, you should oppose neo-Pentecostal abuses, but should you stand passively while these abuses are maliciously attacked as a way to create an opportunity to advance TIM and deconstruct the evangelical support for Israel? 

The defense of Israel that many Brazilian neo-Pentecostal leaders make is necessary. Besides, their message, though defective, emphasizing God, not the government, as the supplier of the human needs is fundamental for the people — and abominable to the secular and Protestant Left.

The Lausanne Movement has lost credibility, and it will only have respect from evangelicals when actually it shows that it is worried about its Brazilian adherents and leaders who work together with the ruling Workers’ Party, which has made everything to advance its antifamily dictatorship in Brazil.

Pope and Obama: Alliance against Global Warming

By Julio Severo

President Barack Obama increasingly is finding a powerful ally in the Vatican, with Pope Francis standing virtually shoulder to shoulder with the White House on income inequality and a historic diplomatic reapproach with communist Cuba, according to WND.

This year the pope appears also poised to offer greater support to the U.S. president on climate change initiatives and reportedly wants to be a leading voice at a U.N. global warming summit in 2015, where Obama will make perhaps his greatest pitch to date for more dramatic action against global warming — a fight traditionally embraced by the Left, according to WND.

Dennis Prage, a WND columnist, has said:

“In recent months, the pope has argued for a radical new financial and economic system to avoid human inequality and ecological devastation. In October he told a meeting … ‘An economic system centered on the god of money needs to plunder nature to sustain the frenetic rhythm of consumption that is inherent to it.

“‘The system continues unchanged, since what dominates are the dynamics of an economy and a finance that are lacking in ethics. It is no longer man who commands, but money. Cash commands.

“‘The monopolizing of lands, deforestation, the appropriation of water, inadequate agro-toxics are some of the evils that tear man from the land of his birth. Climate change, the loss of biodiversity and deforestation are already showing their devastating effects in the great cataclysms we witness,” he said.

That is left-wing, even radical left-wing, language.

How are we to explain this?

Conservatives, who have had the support of the Vatican for their fight against the abortion and homosexual agenda in the U.N., especially against a rabidly pro-abortion U.S. administration under Bill Clinton in the 1990s, are perplexed over the dramatic changes.

What has happened to the conservative alliance between evangelical Ronald Reagan and Pope John Paul 2^nd in the 1980s?

Progressives and liberals in the Catholic Church, especially Leonardo Boff (from Liberation Theology), fervently hope the pope to promote their interests. He hasn’t disappointed them yet.

WND said, “Recently the pope beefed up inclusivity demands by pondering if the Catholic Church is ‘capable of accepting and valuing’ homosexual orientation, without compromising Catholic doctrine on family. Since it is glaringly obvious that that doctrine would have to be stretched to ‘infinite tolerance’ to accomplish that, many are pondering Francis’ words. The drift away from tradition is so clear that openly homosexual artists like Elton John are holding praise-a-thons for the tolerance and compassion of the 266th pontiff.”

The WND article is titled “Super-Pope’ becomes homosexuality hero.”

Is it any wonder that in 2013 Pope Francis was named “Person of the Year” by The Advocate, the world’s biggest homosexual magazine?

How are we to explain this?

Even so, Francis is not the most admired man in the United States. According to a Gallup poll reported by WND, Obama has been named as the most admired man in America for the last seven years.

If the pope wants to pursue the first place, he should be much more Marxist than Obama has been.

Pope says equating Islam with violence is wrong

Pope Francis Named “Person of the Year” by World’s Biggest Gay Magazine

Facebook and Twitter have been accused by Muslims in U.K. of allowing ‘Islamophobia’ from users

Anti-Islamic posts have been reported as ‘racist’

By Julio Severo

Are you shocked and horrified by watching beheadings, tortures and slaughters of Christians by ISIS and other Islamic groups? You are not alone. Islamic groups in the Western nations, especially in U.K., are also ‘shocked’ and ‘horrified’ — by anti-Muslim comments by users shocked and horrified by Islamic violence!

According to the DailyMail, Muslim groups in U.K. have been recording online anti-Islamic speech and reporting it to Twitter and Facebook.

They have reportedly brought many anti-Muslim messages to the attention of the social-media companies.

Fiyaz Mughal, director of Faith Matters, which runs a helpline called Tell MAMA, for victims of anti-Muslim ‘violence,’ said he was disappointed the sites were not taking a stronger stance.

He said, “It is morally unacceptable that social media platforms like Facebook and Twitter, which are vast profit-making companies, socially engineer what is right and wrong to say in our society when they leave up inflammatory, highly socially divisive and openly bigoted views.”

Mughal said that Tell MAMA regularly receives reports of anti-Muslim rhetoric and ‘hate’ from Muslim Facebook and Twitter users.

For Muslims, any anti-Muslim comment is ‘violence.’

In a statement Facebook said, “We take hate speech seriously and remove any content reported to us that directly attacks others based on their race, ethnicity, national origin, religion, sex, gender, sexual orientation…”

Facebook said that it is working with Faith Matters to find a solution against anti-Muslim posts from its users.

The DailyMail report used the grossest examples of anti-Islamic views to justify censorship. But even when there is no gross anti-Islamic rhetoric, Facebook has censored. Some Christian Facebook users who have posted YouTube videos of Christians being beheaded by Muslims, just to draw attention to their horrible plight, have had their accounts blocked for several days. Their “anti-Muslim” posts, which included no dirty words or anti-Islamic violence, have been removed.

In the U.K., the pro-Islamic madness is out of control. There has been a wave of Islamic rapes of British ethnic girls and young women, but the English people, who were courageous to protect their land from Nazi enemies decades ago, today hand over their daughters to Islamic rapists. They are more fearful of being accused of ‘racism’ than seeing their daughters unprotected from Islamic rapists.

If Obama, Bush and Clinton are right in their frequent messages and propaganda that Islam is a “religion of peace,” so the many YouTube videos from ISIS beheading Christians are not what we see. They could be Christians beheading Muslims! In this case, Muslims in U.K. are right to report anti-Muslim speech.

In this case, Facebook and Twitter would be right to remove any speech against the propaganda of Islam as a “religion of peace.”

Yet, the reality does not follow the messages of Obama, Bush, Clinton and Islamic propagandists in the West.

Islam is the leading cause of oppression, persecution and martyrdom of Christians around the world. However, these poor people are supposed to die without complaining in Muslim lands. And we in Western lands have no right to complain about Muslims bringing suffering to them.

Anti-Christian censorship is rampant in Muslim lands, and the West wants to follow suit.

By the way, if Muslims in the West have their way, sooner or later this article will be labeled ‘racist’ or anti-Muslim ‘hate.’

Russian Orthodox Condemn UN Children’s Fund For Promoting Homosexuality

By Stefano Gennarini, J.D.

NEW YORK (C-Fam) As Christians around the world got ready to contemplate the innocence of the child Jesus, last week the Russian Orthodox Church took on a UNICEF paper that says children have LGBT rights.

The Patriarch’s Commission on the Family of the Russian Orthodox Church released a scathing statement criticizing a UNICEF position paper that urges countries to protect LGBT rights because, it says, it is in the “best interests of children.” The Commission turns the tables on UNICEF and says: “Placing children to be raised by same-sex couples is a gross violation of the rights and interests of a child.”

The Orthodox Commission said it was “gravely concerned” that UNICEF would throw its weight behind what it calls notions that are “devoid of sound international legal basis” and “contrary to most of the nations’ traditional cultures, as well as norms of natural and religious morality.” As a result, the commission says it is “harmful to the international community and will undermine the moral legitimacy of UNICEF and other UN bodies.”

The UNICEF paper acknowledges that “there is no binding international instrument that explicitly addresses discrimination against individuals based on their sexual orientation and gender identity.” At the same time UNICEF cites the non-binding opinion of UN experts on the Committee on the Rights of the Child (CRC), which monitors the implementation of the Convention on the Rights of the Child, to elevate sexual orientation and gender identity to the level of categories of non-discrimination like race, sex and religion.

The same UN committee told the Catholic Church this year that its doctrine on abortion was a human rights violation, and told Israel that circumcision is a violation of the bodily integrity of the child.

The position paper goes beyond a mere acknowledgement of the CRC’s interpretation of the Convention on the Rights of the Child. It also purports to instruct countries on how they are to report to the Committee on the Rights of the Child: “CRC member states and signatories should report on discrimination on the basis of sexual orientation and gender identity, including discrimination and bullying in schools and educational establishments.”

UNICEF invites countries to repeal laws that criminalize the promotion of homosexuality to minors or that prohibit the association of children with LGBT adults, such as the one that Russia passed last year, and then “equalize the age of consent for both heterosexual and homosexual conduct.”

It also recommends providing “LGBT couples and their children with the legal recognition of their family ties.” On this the Patriarch’s Commission had a few choice words: “UNICEF should know that children are born of a union of a man and a woman, not of a same-sex union. It is in the best interests of a child to be born into and raised by family, so that he can know his loving and caring father and mother” the statement reads.

The Commission ends by calling upon the international community to “use every legal means to stop international bodies from abusing their capacities in such a manner.”

Germans Protest Islam, Leftwing Media Denounces Putin

By Julio Severo

On Monday, December 15, some 15,000 people in Germany took part in a demonstration labeled by the German press as ‘xenophobic.’ The demonstration was held by the Patriotic Europeans Against the Islamization of the West (PEGIDA, by its German-language acronym), whose main objective is to oppose Islamic immigration from the Middle East and Africa. Since October, PEGIDA has held weekly rallies against Islam.

German chancellor Angela Merkel has condemned PEGIDA, declaring, “There is no place in Germany for those who are instigating hatred against immigrants.” She also denounced the protesters for “racism.”

According to Jihad Watch, “Despite efforts by German politicians and the media to portray PEGIDA as neo-Nazi, the group has taken great pains to distance itself from Germany’s extreme right. The group says that it is ‘apolitical’ and that its main objective is to preserve what is left of Germany’s Judeo-Christian culture and values.”

PEGIDA has mobilized thousands of German citizens to take to the streets to protest the growing Islamization of their country.

The American and other Western leftwing media have become accustomed to criticize anti-Islam protests as ‘racist.’ Yet, the German protests have, enigmatically, instigated the American Left to attack Putin.

Major American leftwing media outlets The Huffington Post and Bloomberg say that the anti-Muslim demonstrations are “far-right” and a strategy of the Russian President Vladimir Putin. In contrast, Jihad Watch, a group that monitors Islam and its advances in the West, has validated the demonstrations as an attempt to defend Judeo-Christian culture and values in Europe. Jihad Watch is praised by conservative WorldNetDaily.

Bloomberg says about PEGIDA, “Putin’s strategy seems to be to build up a ‘fifth column’ of far-right parties in Europe willing to cooperate with the Kremlin.”

Even in Brazil, the leftwing media has denounced Putin as a KGB agent.

If you think that what is happening is madness, consider Stephen Suleyman Schwartz, the author of the anti-Putin and anti-Russia article in The Huffington Post. Schwartz is the director of the Center for Islamic Pluralism. His father was Jewish and his mother was a Protestant who was a member of the Communist Party in America. Even so, he managed to convert to Islam.

Now, with his vast (mad) experience he is defending Islam in Europe against anti-Islam ‘conspiracies’ from Putin.

He denounces that PEGIDA anti-Islamic demonstrations have slogans like “Frieden mit Russland! Nie wieder Krieg in Europa!” (“Peace with Russia! Never again war in Europe!”) and “Putin, hilfe uns!” (“Putin, help us!”).

Then Schwartz says, “Many observers may see in PEGIDA no more than another example of the ‘new populism’ in Europe. But an anti-Islam, pro-Russian alliance is dangerous for its advocates. Alignment of Russian ambitions and German discontent has been seen before: in the Stalin-Hitler pact of 1939, which allowed Germany to conquer most of Europe before turning on Russia. Germans should be wary about these issues.”

Don Hanks, an American expert on Russian language and culture, notes Schwartz’s exaggerations: “This author is either hopelessly naive or, more likely, a shill for the transnational elites who want to control the universe from Washington. It is beyond absurd to warn that an anti-Islam alliance smacks of Nazism. Hitler had an alliance with Muslims, especially the Mufti, against the Jews and these Muslims also killed hundreds of Christian Serbs for good measure. The pro-Russian alliance that Hitler entered into was with an atheist and communist who had absolutely nothing in common with Putin, who promotes Orthodox Christianity, and was not even a Russian (Stalin was Georgian)! The utter irony of this is that the most dangerous alliance in the world today by far is US-NATO-EU. So far the EU has taken over over 28 countries and absorbed them. That’s not expansionism? (Oops, I forgot, it’s exceptionalism). The first EU Commissioner was Walter Hallstein, a nazi who wrote the ‘Pride and Blood’ law forbidding Germans to marry Jews. A Nazi professor in the Third Reich wrote the blueprint for the EU, as described by UK authors Rodney Atkinson and Edward Spalton. All journalists should be required to take a test in Russian history and culture, and should have an IQ of at least 80. That would eliminate a lot of this disinformation. It would be good if more readers used their heads for something other than a hat rack as well.”

Even though PEGIDA has been portrayed as ‘racist’ and ‘extremist’ by the leftwing media, Deutsche Welle has said about PEGIDA demonstrators: “the majority are completely normal people. Of course, they’re not people who usually vote Green, or the Left party, or the SPD [Social Democrats], but they’re not extremists.”

PEGIDA’s motto is “We are the people!” (Wir sind das Volk!), the same slogan used by East Germans to bring down the Berlin Wall in 1989.

Even so, the Left is implicating PEGIDA in Putin’s alleged ‘communist’ conspiracies.

If Putin were really a communist agent, would they be implicating him in conspiracies with conservatives in Germany?  

In the Soviet times, the American leftist media faithfully attacked America and praised the Soviet Union. Just to be clear: the Left always protects the Left.

In the current situation between America and Russia, the American Left and even the Brazilian Left protect America and attack Russia.

Are there more socialists in America than in Russia?

Don Hanks has another explanation: “Left and right is irrelevant these days when it comes to Putin. Russophobia is de rigueur if you want to get ahead in politics and media these days.”

Nowadays, incredibly ultra-nationalism has united American left-wingers and right-wingers against Russia. American right-wingers hate Russia for its communist past and because Russia is the only nation able to challenge minimally the U.S. supremacy around the world.

American left-wingers hate Russia for its present conservative laws and because the Orthodox Church is heavily involved in the government affairs. The Left hates Church and government together!

If Putin wants the American Left to love and defend Russia again, he should do more than Obama has done: to embrace Marxism, Islam and gay ideology. And to expel the Orthodox Church from his government. Afterwards he should try to convince the Western media that he is more Marxist than Obama is. He should say to them, “Look, now I have allowed gay parades in Moscow and I have revoked the ban on homosexual propaganda to children. Now Russian children will be exposed to all kinds of homosexual sexual activity. Besides, I proclaim that Islam is a ‘religion of peace,’ just as Obama does! What about now? May you at last love me and Russia again?”

Yet, Germans should not be deterred by American leftist propaganda, especially The Huffington Post and Bloomberg, which preache that anti-Islam opposition is a Putin’s conspiracy. And even if it is so, an anti-Islam conspiracy is better than an pro-Islam conspiracy. There is information that Obama has been championing Marxism and Islam. He is their greatest advocate. Does this secret that explain why Obama is loved and Putin is hated by the Western mass media?

Nevertheless, we should not miss the point that the biggest threat to Europe today is Islamic immigration. Islam intends to change Europe, by destroying what is left of its Christian culture and establish an Islamic dictatorship.

Whoever helps Islamic expansion in Europe is an enemy of Europe. Whoever helps save Europeans from the incoming Islamic dictatorship is not an enemy.  

The Western media interpret who the enemy is. This is why they praise Obama and attack Putin.

My view? I think that whoever defends Europe from Islam deserves support. I would support even the pope in this just cause. But, sadly, Pope Francis has said that “equating Islam with violence is wrong,” essentially agreeing with Obama that Islam is a “religion of peace.”

If there is hope for Europe to escape Islamization, will it come from Obama or the pope?

The real point is not if Obama, the pope and Putin are attacking or defending Islamization of Europe. The point is that European natives have a right to reject Islamization without being labeled ‘racist.’
