Confronting the Deception is a book written by By Tabitha Korol. I have known Tabitha for many years now and she has been a prolific writer on subjects of national importance, the US Constitution, Judeo-Christian ethics and the dangers of radical Islam. Her work is detailed and accurate and is mostly short and to the point essays and I will add for full disclosure that I post many of her essays on my blog under her By Line.
I have just finished reading her book, Confronting the Deception and found it a very thorough and detailed analysis of the march of Islam into Western Civilization and how we appear to be incapable of seeing the dangers of trying to assimilate a culture that does not want to assimilate into the belief structures that have been developed and debugged over the past 5,000 years in Europe and the Americas. Although many today are spoiled because of the great political system we have, they have lost the historical perception of how hard it was to get to where we are now. The Social Justice Warriors (SJW) today only see past wrongs and conclude the present is therefore unjust; this is a very dangerous view and civilizations have fallen because of this view in the past.
Tabitha has 90 of her essays broken down into three sections: Part One Islam, Part Two: Academia, Part Three: Media, and Part Four: Conclusion, generally running from the fall of 2011 to early 2018. In these 90 essays she develops the argument that there is a distortion of the subject within in each of the three categories, showing how the truth is distorted by the JSW movement and political correctness. Her work is well documented and sources appropriately footnoted with 822 listed in her book.
This is a serious academic study and I highly recommend it for anyone with an open mind that wants to study the subject of merging the Islamic belief system into the Judeo-Christian ethics that were used to develop our present political systems, in particular, that which we have in The United States.
I have not studied Islam to the degree that Tabitha has, but I have read extensively on the subject of Moral Philosophy and it is my opinion that Judeo-Christian ethics and Islamic ethics are not compatible. If you read her book Confronting the Deception you will be given ample evidence that that statement is, in fact, true.
Confronting the Deception, Inflamed by 9/11, Fired Up By Eight Bad Years, was written and published by Tabitha Korol in May 2018, Lexington, KY with the ISBN 978-1-986925-50-1

Move Review 12 Strong
Rate This
In the wake of Sept. 11, Capt. Mitch Nelson (really was Captain Mark Nutsch) leads a U.S. Special Forces team ODA 595 into Afghanistan for an extremely dangerous mission. Once there, the soldiers develop an uneasy partnership with the Northern Alliance to take down the Taliban and its al-Qaida allies. Outgunned and outnumbered, Nelson and his team do what needs to be done there were, after all American Green Berets so how could they lose.
As a former Green Beret from way back in the day and who served in Vietnam as a A team XO I can tell you that a movie is a movie: But this team didn’t need much glamor added. What they actually did no one else but a Green Beret could have done. When you are in hostile territory supporting local militias and can barely speak the language and then have to lead them in battle on a horse you have to be crazy! But then we were Green Berets.
Captain Mitch Nelson actuallydid what the move showed and there is now a statue in NYC of a Green Beret with an M4 with the M203 grenade launder on horse back. The Statue was written up in our Special Forces Association magazine the winter 2011 issue of the The Drop a couple of years after the book, Horse Soldiers, the movie was taken from came out. I was in combat and from my experiences the move came a good feel for the way it really is. I recommend this movie if you want to feel what it is like to be on your own in a hard place.
OH I must add that the Air Force B-52’s helped some!

Movie Review “Lone Survivor”
Rate This
This movie is based on the book by the same name co-written by Patrick Robinson and Marcus Luttrell’s and his experiences in Afghanistan. The book is a fictional account of Operation Red Wings in Kunar Province Afghanistan in 2005. Luttrell and three other Navy Seals from Seal Team 10 were on a mission to capture or kill a high value Al-Qaida operative, Ahmad Shah, that goes terrible wrong. Luttrell played (and produced) by Mark Wahlberg, Michael P. Murphy played by Taylor Kitsch, Danny Dietz played by Emile Hirsch and Matthew Axelson played by Ben Foster are caught in a moral dilemma soon after arriving between killing three Afghanis’ and completing the mission or letting them go and aborting. Lt (Army Captain) Murphy, the team leader, lets them go and the team tries to extract.
Those of us that have served in combat know that no mission goes as planned once the mission starts, SNAFU (Situation Normal All F’ed Up). Operation Red Wings is no exception starting with poor radio contact then being discovered and ending with the loss of one MH-47 Chinook helicopter, 8 Navy Seals and 8 Special Operations aviators on the helicopter and 3 Seal’s out of 4 on the mission, Luttrell being the only one that lived and that was just barely. Although the move doesn’t portray exactly what happened on that mountain in Kunar Province it’s close enough to being true (Google Operation Red Wings pick the Wikipedia link) that it just doesn’t matter one bit.
The heart of the movie is when Luttrell and the other three Seal’s are found by the Taliban and an intense running fire fight ensues. The lack of radio communications means the Seal Team 10 commanded Lt Commanded Erik S Kristensen played by Eric Bana doesn’t know what happened to his Seals, and from personal experience that is one-hell-of-a-bad feeling. After the fire fight starts Lt Murphy fights his way to high ground where he is killed but he does make contact with Kristensen who then loads a rescue mission on a Chinook helicopter and tries to save the team, he doesn’t get gunship support, in part because of command conflicts, and after reaching the site he is shot down by an PPG rocket and he and more seals and the air crew are all killed.
While Kristensen is trying to save his Seals Luttrell, Murphy, Dietz and Axelson are fighting their way down the mountain where they are picked off one by one in a very intense running battle that is one of the best acted and realistic portrayal of combat that I have seen — it was very close to what I experienced in Vietnam at a Green Beret in 1967. This is a must see move for anyone that wants to experience what Special Operation solders go through in combat. Like Luttrell I experienced a combat situation where I was the only one to survive and two others died and I can state unequivocally that losing your comrades is something that you never forget and you will wonder why till the day you die why your were spared and they were not?

Book Review Sovereign Duty
Rate This
Sovereign duty is a book on the U.S. Constitution written and published by by KrisAnne Hall, J.D. in 2014 and edited by Steve Andrews. The book can be found on KrisAnne’s website Liberty First. From the Introduction of this book we have …
The gift of Liberty was purchased for us with great sacrifice. The men and women at our founding understood that Liberty is a gift from Goad and that all Gods’ gifts are worth our every effort. John Adams, in a letter to his wife Abigail in 1777, reminds us of the charge we have to ensure that the gift of Liberty is not squandered.
“Posterity! you will never know how much it cost the present generation to preserve your freedom! I hope you will make a good use of it. If you do not, i shall repent in Heaven that I ever took half the pains to preserve it.”
The book is written in three parts; Part One – More Lenient Measure, Part Two – Ultimate Solutions and Part Three – Hope for the Future. In this book KirsAnne relates to us the meaning of freedom and what it means to us and how we, in out present ignorance, do not understand how our freedom is being taken away from us. A key part of this work which we are not taught today is that the American States are Sovereign and that they created the federal government by compact — in short the States made the to protect them from outside threats and when they did that they put limits on their power. What this means is that the Federal Government that we knows is not or does not hold the Sovereign which means they have no legal authority to make laws outside the limits imposed on them.
Think of it this way if you make a contract with someone to do a task for you — what would you think of that party then started doing things that were not in that contract like removing all you funds from your bank account. Absurd, of course, but since the Federal Government is nothing more than an an entity created by the States how can it then dictate to those that created it what they can or can not do?
I highly recommend that anyone that is interested in the Constitution and Freedom read the book.

Book Review, IMPEACHABLE OFFENSES a Case for removing Barack Obama from Office
Rate This
A very reveling and believable book, written in 2013 by Aaron Klein & Brenda J. Elliott Peter who do a very convincing job of presenting in twelve specific areas, each a chapter in the book, on how the actions of Obama in that area give cause for impeachment. In other words there could be twelve specific charges in the articles of impeachment that the House of Representatives could write. According to Klein in his preface, “Barack Obama has done serious and sustained injury to America and to our Constitution, the greatest document of political liberty known to man. He fundamentally abused the powers of his office. Impeaching Obama will not, of itself, end the progressive nightmare in America. But Obama’s impeachment and removal from office will go a long way toward restoring power to congress, and to We, the People.”
Unfortunately, the Senate is controlled by Harry Reid a fellow hard core progressive like Obama and so unless the People give the Republicans the Senate in November it would be pointless to Impeach Obama in the House. However, if I were running the RNC, this book could be used in the campaign by telling the voters in a series of twelve documentaries with follow on TV adds each giving the reason that what he has done in against our founding document and will result in a all powerful tyrant in the White house. Therefore need to give us the Senate so we can get rid of him before he does any more damage, and we can reverse as much as we can of the past 6 years. The following twelve paragraphs match the twelve chapters in this book, each is a subject in itself and so justifies a short discussion.
Chapter one is The Benghazi Scandal which is first since the authors feel that aiding and abetting the sworn enemies of the United States is a very serious offense. In twenty eight pages with 88 foot notes the authors develop the time line and details of what happened there that resulted in the deaths of four American with no response. Worse yet it appears that the reason this cover up occurred was solely to get reelected and it was just too bad that some people died. Or has Hillary later said, “… what difference does it make now … “since the deaths were very preventable and the cover up was a despicable act this is a solid reason for impeachment.
Chapter two is From “Fast and Furious” To Gun Control and how in addition to arming the Jihadists he is also arming the Mexican cartels. The gist of the chapter is how Obama and Eric Holder, his Attorney General, developed a plan to nullify the Second Amendment which was the right of citizens to own guns. Again in twenty eight pages with 141 foot notes the authors develop the time line and details of what happened on the border and how one border agent was killed as a result. The purpose of what these to progressives did was to work as hard as they could to get legislation passed that would lead to the confiscation of all privately owned guns. The reason for the second amendment was to keep the politicians’ in line as they would know that if they became oppressive there would be armed rebellion form the citizens. This was very important to the Citizens since they had just fought and won a war against that kind of oppressive government and they wanted there descendants to have that same option. Since the issue of gun control didn’t come up until the late sixties when the young progressives where just starting to get into politics and one of their main objectives was to turn American into a country run completely by Washington which they would control they knew that the citizens guns would need to be taken from them at some point. Using legislation and executive orders to nullify the second amendment is an impeachable offense.
Chapter three Forget Congress! Backdoor Amnesty Already Here is about how Obama is implementing an open border policy to lure in from Mexico and Central America by use of a loose border control and a snail’s pace immigration process that makes it almost impossible to keep any one out of the country. In twenty nine pages with 137 foot notes the authors develop how Obama and the department of Homeland Security under Janet Napolitano using immigration control and the border agents to effectively allow anyone that walked across the border to stay here whether they were apprehended or not. By doing what was done the laws of the country were not enforced going along with Chapter Two such that the lack of deportation created a magnet of free benefits for anyone that want to come here. The reason the progressive what these aliens here is that they are following the Cloward-Piven strategy of overloading the system to break in down. Since the open border allows Jihadists and others into the country as well this becomes another impeachable offense.
Chapter four Revolving Door For Criminal Illegals is a follow on to the previous chapter where the authors show how in 20 pages with 73 foot notes how even those who have been apprehended and served time and or are deported they come back such that many of these criminals have been through this process more than a few times. The gist of this chapter is it is hard to arrest them, it is hard to convict them and it’s hard to keep them from coming back in. Another impeachable offense created by Obama, by intentionally directing DHS to not follow the law and also for Obama to issue executive orders to circumvent the laws of the land.
Chapter five Empowering Enemies Domestically and Abroad in this chapter the authors show how the Muslim Brotherhood has infiltrated the federal government and is now influencing both domestic and foreign policies. The Muslim Brotherhood is nothing more than the political wind of the Islamic Jihadist movement to convert the entire world to Islam and Sharia law the very fact that they are in the administration is cause for impeachment. In this chapter of 22 pages and 93 foot notes a good synopses of what could be a book in itself is made of the real danger here. How can you fight a war against the Jihadists when there are embedded in you administration. Oil money for the Middle East supports this movement and the politicians need lots of money to get elected, unfortunate they are sell all of us out to the Muslims so a very impeachable offence. Thomas Jefferson is turning over in his grave as he was the first president to fight the Jihadists and wrote how Islam was not compatible with either Christianity or what we now call Western Civilization.
Chapter six Cronyism, Corruption, and Clean Energy is the shortest chapter at 11 pages and 51 footnotes. The focus here is not on the movement itself but on the money flows using government money to finance pet projects in the Green energy field. Most of this money flows to friends and campaign contributors that reap large grants and loans and then go belly up. Despite the documented failures and loss of government money Obama continues to push this program to appease his green backers. Wasting huge sums of money is not the worst Obama has done but any other president would be impeached for what he has done here.
Chapter seven Big Brother Obama’s Surveillance Regime is about the massive surveillance programs being used to collect information on American Citizens which is clearly a violation of the Fourth Amendment. Although Obama did not initiate the programs being used to justify what is going on he has certainly significantly expanded them. Much of this work is being done by “private” contractors e.g. Edward Snowden who brought this problem to a head. Although many call him a trader I don’t the government surveillance programs are clearly a constitutional violation and will lead in the end to a controlled citizens much worse than any people every before. This is a major constitutional violation and clearly another impeachable offense.
Chapter eight The Truth About Fusion Centers which are privately run location where all the information collected it put together, i.e. driver’s license, birth and death records, police records, education, jobs, all the various things that are now on the web. They also collect information from places like the CIA, FBI, NASA and the military so they can develop a completed dossier on every citizen. This is all in the name of antiterrorism but its sweep is way over the top and ripe for abuse; clearly an impeachable offense.
Chapter nine DNS Army — The Emerging Police State here the authors talk about the TSA and the VIPR Teams which are the start of what Obama promised us in 2008 a “Civilian National Security Force” a National Police Force which I hope they don’t come up with brown uniforms. These TSA programs are getting US Military support in violation of the Posse Comitatus Act which prevents the US Armed forces from doing police work in America. TSA has also expanded to all forms of transportation not just air. Little to none of the past six years was envisioned by the Creation of Homeland Security and Obama has pushed these programs forward as quickly as he could as outlined in 30 pages and 131 foot notes, just one more impeachable act.
Chapter ten The Drone Nation is about the DHS and its own law-enforcement air force that uses the same drones the military does and the military trains the operators. These drones with special software and facial recognition will be able to track people even in crowds. The ACLU and Rand Paul are both on the side that with the current laws passed by congress the President has the authority to issue kill orders on American Citizens in the United States. This is a clear violation of the 5th Amendment and since Obama has push for these acts and laws he is creating more impeachable issues.
Chapter eleven Obama Care: Unauthorized Expansion of Power which is about the takeover of the health care industry. Despite Chief Justice John Roberts this act is on face unconstitutional. Then after passing it without a single Republican vote Obama proceeded to make numerous changes and delays of implementation written in the law which is not in his prevue. That is in effect writing law which only congress can do, if Congress gives up that right then there is no constitution and the president is in effect a Tyrant, since a tyrant is by definition a ruler who can make his own laws. The authors spend a fair amount of time here in 19 pages and with 81 foot notes clearly showing that Obama should be impeached for this program.
Chapter twelve “anti-War” President’s Unconstitutional War? Is one of the shorter sections being only 9 pages with 27 footnotes but is in some ways the most troubling. From Libya to Egypt to Syria to Iraq Obama has found ways to use military force to achieve ends not in the best interest of America. The Constitution gives Congress the sole responsibility to declare war, the reason being historically the rulers/leaders in most countries were always dragging their countries in to war that the citizens didn’t necessarily want. There was some leeway since a country could be attacked but none of Obama’s Kinetic Actions involved the country being attacked. Almost all of them appeared to be related to the US arm of the Muslim Brotherhood so using the American military to aid a terrorist organization achieve their ends is definitely and impeachable offense.
This book is a must read if you are interested the abuse of Presidential power. But don’t take my word for it buy the book and find out for yourself.
