REFLECTION: What is this War on Terrorism really all about?

What is this War on Terrorism really all about? Does it have boundaries? Who is the real enemy? What is their goal?

Unique Features of Islam by authors Daniel Masters, Isma’il Kaka and AbdurRahman R. Squires says: “The word ‘Islam’ is an Arabic word which means ‘complete submission to the will of Almighty God’. Other religions are named after their founders such as Christianity and Buddhism. … In other religions, even the ones which claim belief in ‘One God’, people often approach God through an intermediary, an angel, the Virgin Mary or Jesus. However, it is only in Islam that a person is required only to pray to God.”

I am a Christian; therefore according to Unique Features of Islam I am their enemy because I often approach God through Jesus Christ, the Son of God! Are you a Christian? I hope so. If so, you are also their enemy. Many of “them” have one goal and only one, and that is to extinguish Christians and Christianity because we pray to Our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ!

According to Unique Features of Islam, every human being is required to pray only to God. Praying to Jesus Christ makes me (and you) an infidel according to Islam; therefore you and I are candidates for extinction.

That is it in a nutshell. This is a war between good and evil.

We know to what extent they will go to extinguish us physically. We see it daily. They extinguish themselves physically in order to extinguish us physically. The question then becomes: on whose soil shall this battle rage? Will it be their desert or our streets? If we don’t take the war to them, they will surely take it to us. Do we need more proof of this than 9/11/2001?
