Islamic-led Hezbollah is a client of Iran, Hezbollah’s leader in Lebanon, Hassan Nasrallah, boasted of having a great arsenal of weapons at the ready, including 350,000 long range rockets and 120,000 rocket launchers. Their target: Israel.

Last month witnessed a gathering of nations in Paris protesting against Islamic terrorism. No connection was made in the media between Islamic terrorism and the rockets aimed against Israel even though Iran is the culprit.

One doesn’t have to be a rocket scientist to conclude that despite Israel’s “Iron Dome,” the weaponry of which Nasrallah boasts, even if exaggerated ten-fold, is an existential threat to minuscule Israel. Indeed, since Hezbollah is a client of Iran, Nasrallah’s boast of having hundreds of thousands of rockets and launchers, even if highly exaggerated, may be why Israel has not launched a preemptive attack on Iran’s nuclear-weapon facilities.

The enormity of the threat facing Israel renders more worrisome America’s retreat as a world power. This retreat renders the Obama Administration the most reckless and irresponsible in history. Does the color of Obama’s skin shield him from outcries of condemnation? Is such silence the result of racial fear or of public imbecility? In either case, how should we assess Obama’s culpability?

Leaving aside the appalling ignorance he often displays, how should we understand the various acts of omission and commission of this still unknown President? Do they manifest a conscious or semiconscious desire to undermine the Judeo-Christian foundations of Western Civilization which he hates judging from his return a bust of Churchill to London?

Whatever Obama’s designs, there remains the awful fact that Obama is disemboweling America, and as America goes, so goes Europe.

Europe is evaporating before our eyes. Multiculturalism and the influx of a prolific Muslim population, both to Obama’s liking, have emasculated Christianity.

Meanwhile, given Obama’s policy of indiscriminate immigration, America is succumbing to national disunity and middle class discontent, This could lead to the civil war predicted by the astute Lee Harris, author of Civilization and Its Enemies.

If we are witnessing, as learned commentators have said, the end of Western Civilization of which Europe was the home and which is now being overrun by Muslim migrants, ponder these haunting words of the Spanish journalist Sebastian Vilar Rodrigez:*

“I walked down the street in Barcelona, and suddenly discovered a terrible truth – Europe died in Auschwitz.”

We killed six million Jews and replaced them with 20 million Muslims. In Auschwitz we burned a culture, thought, creativity, talent. We destroyed the chosen people, truly chosen, because they produced great and wonderful people who changed the world.

The contribution of this people is felt in all areas of life: science, art international trade, and above all, as the conscience of the world. These are the people we burned.

And under the pretense of tolerance, and because we wanted to prove to ourselves that we were cured of the disease of racism, we opened our gates to 20 million Muslims, who brought us stupidity and ignorance, religious extremism and lack of tolerance, crime and poverty due to an unwillingness to work and support their families with pride. They have turned our beautiful Spanish cities into the third world, drowning in filth and crime.

Shut up in the apartments they receive free from the government, they plan the murder and destruction of their naive hosts.

And thus, in our misery, we have exchanged culture for fanatical hatred, creative skill for destructive skill, intelligence for backwardness and superstition.

We have exchanged the pursuit of peace of the Jews of Europe and their talent for hoping for a better future for their children, their determined clinging to life because life is holy, for those who pursue death, for people consumed by the desire for death for themselves and others, for our children and theirs.

What a terrible mistake was made by miserable Europe.

I will only add this: It’s time to declare war on Islam. Start with the destruction of Iran’s command and control centers, and proceed to “quarantine” Mecca and Medina.

But first: incarcerate Obama for Treason!
