Islamists in America
If a US Muslim gives his full allegiance to Allah and the Islamic Leadership based on the Koran, Haddith, Jihad and Sharia Law, and gives merely a token allegiance to this nation in order to benefit himself and his family with the freedoms, liberty, economics and social opportunities found in the US, and if he raises his family in the same Islamic belief system, I suggest that he and his progeny are eventually a potential threat to the nation.
If the recorded 4.3 million Muslims in the US harbor as a guess merely 1% of their fellows that are truly fanatical Islamic Jihadists, we have a serious and blind or hidden problem of 43,000 potential terrorists in the nation. That is a significant sleeper 5th column. Blind, because we simply cannot watch and control so many potential terrorists. We must wait until they act, and suffer the consequences. If, however, the percentage is a lot higher, the problem becomes much, much worse. Who knows the reality? Of course, the majority of US Muslims are productive, law abiding, and good citizens, as Abedin most likely is.
Our religious freedom law is not a suicide pact, however, but it seems as if we are treating it as one, since many sects of Islam, such as the Muslim Brotherhood and Wahabbi, vow to eradicate the infidel and work to establish a new Islamic Caliphate when the time is right and the conditions are favorable. This may well not be for many years until their power, high birthrate numbers and influence grow sufficiently here in the US. We see this slow and steady accretion of power in the UK and Europe right now, and it has made real progress in the last few years.
Rather than sweeping this problem under the rug of religious freedom to our eventual regret, I suggest that it should be faced directly now: the question then is: How? I see no acceptable answer– none at all. I suggest that no FBI investigation or security clearance investigation or even an oath of allegiance would discover many of these people in our midst. We are eventually at risk of being conquered by the leveraging of our own law: failure to recognize and act on the peril.
Perhaps if we ignore the problem, it will go away. But that is not the American way, is it? Perhaps our collective conscience will gradually realize what is going on, and take whatever corrective action is needed to preserve our way of life. With this gradualism, though, it is all but inevitable that more of us will lose their lives to terrorist actions than otherwise, but I see no way to avoid it.

Cheney Makes us Proud
Dick Cheney, speaking at AEI, took the Obama administration to task for its stands on waterboarding and closing Gitmo. He explained in simple and direct language why we did what we did, and that the results were well worth it, even as Obama will not release the information dragged out of three terrorists to prove that worth.
The link is to a short summary in the UK Telegraph that highlights the key points of the speech.

Anti-Discrimination Getting All-Pervasive
There Ought to be a Law!
If you open your home to the public, you have just forfeited your right to allow or deny entry of anyone of any race, color, sex, religion, or creed. Or so goes it in France now, and in the US, I suspect. If you open a store or other business to serve the public, it is the same thing--you must allow entry to all of the public. Even when you know that the person entering is a wanted criminal, you cannot stop him ( but you can call the police).
This means that terrorists or anyone resembling a terrorist cannot be barred from entering public establishments, and if you do call the police you are likely to be sued. Thus intimidated, you and the rest of us will have to allow the deepest of penetration of our lives by the real terrorists--literally everywhere but our homes so long as they remain private. Neither malls, nor shops, nor the grocers, nor the doctor's office, nor banks nor amusement parks are safe from their presence, as things stand today. Just don't try to offer your home for sale. It is then open to public inspection, and hence to everyone.
We must wait until they show their true colors and do what they will to us before we can react. We will lose a lot before then--loved ones; our nation, possibly; all we hold dear. It is true that we have already lost much to them through intimidation. Such is our freedoms, our laws, and our Constitution. I hope our nation lasts in all its glory through the future generations of my family, but I am not exactly confident that it will.

They are Jihadists!
Never mind the State Department! A Jihadist is a Jihadist!
Since by Islamic doctrine, Jihad is the proper name for the war against the Infidel, the proper name for one who fights in this war is a Jihadist. Since all Muslims are obliged to fight against the infidel, then all proper Muslims are Jihadists. If you aren't a Jihadist, then you are not a proper Muslim.
