		<description>The war against the Ishmaelites will NEVER end. Genesis 16: 11 &amp; 12 tells us the story of Abrahams illicit son from Hagar.  

11. And the angel of the LORD said unto her, Behold, thou art with child and shalt bear a son, and shalt call his name Ishmael; because the LORD hath heard thy affliction. 

12. And he will be a wild man; his hand will be against every man, and every man&#039;s hand against him; and he shall dwell in the presence of all his brethren. 

Canada and other Western nations need to stop pussyfooting around are realize Islam is NOT a religion of peace.  In the Koran it talks of &#039;Conversion by the sword&#039;.  The Bible gives you a choice of rejecting or accepting Christ.

Do you realize that our western materialistic culture our average birthrate is under 2. Muslims are averaging much higher and without a shot, will take over Europe in 30 plus years. They will outnumber them.   

Food for thought.</description>

		<description>Pretty scary to see this after our discussion specifically touched on 24.

From: www.comicbookresources.com/columns/?column=10

If you don&#039;t know who Antonin Scalia is, you should. Hunting pal of Dick Cheney, rabidly right-wing member of the Supreme Court, and almost chief justice before the White House decided to go with a less politically volatile choice instead. Scalia attended a judiciary seminar in Canada last week - and cited the successes of CTU agent Jack Bauer (played by Canadian Kiefer Sutherland) as justification for the torture of enemies in order to gain information. Never mind that statistically &quot;information&quot; gained via torture is almost always useless - torture victims develop a bad habit of telling their torturers whatever they think they want to hear, just to get the pain to stop, but there&#039;s something about pain that makes people just a little too imaginative, especially when they don&#039;t have the answers being looked for - the idea of a Supreme Court Justice citing the scripted successes of a fictional character (&quot;Jack Bauer saved Los Angeles. He saved hundreds of thousands of lives... So the question is really whether we believe in these absolutes. And ought we believe in these absolutes.&quot;) as a rationale for controversial real world practices is pretty frightening. What&#039;s more frightening is that referencing Jack Bauer has become commonplace for right wingers. What&#039;s the matter? Not enough real world intelligence-gained-from-torture successes to cite? The whole &quot;torture on 24&quot; thing has gotten bad enough that Army men are asking the 24 producers for a sequence where torture backfires badly and only worsens a growing crisis. 

I was always told there were people out there who didn&#039;t know the difference between reality and fiction, but it&#039;s always unnerving (as with the &quot;evidence&quot; presented to justify the invasion of Iraq) to have it slapped in your face that you&#039;re being governed by them...</description>
