Pink Floyd wrote 'quiet desperation is the English way'. It may be that since the end of the empire they have outsourced that desperation where feasible (i.e. to Russia & the U.S.A.) in order to increase natural resource holdings. When times are not desperate, people still believe what they want, and the rich financing passage through the eyes of needles with nano-camel technology might think wise-guy appeals will work on the final day. Good times may cause error as well as bad. Theology that accounts for individual political events such as terrorism however seems unsupported by scripture. That was actually the point I wanted to get to, since there is so much wrong political hermeneutic on T.V. and in Hollywood even when fiction (e.g. Gabriel and Michael fighting one another with fists and swords). Besides particular prophecy that was historically fulfilled and the expressed will of God or Apostles in scripture secular events and their particular causal relationship to the will of God are only problematically interpreted- what is wise to man being foolish to God, and His will being deep and unfathomable, and the Lord being the light in the darkness; the sole spiritual light in the abysmal gulf of space before and after the stelliferous era. Because human nature is fallen and mankind is wicked and chooses to perp political wickedness, it is grace that is the exception allowing good things to occur. Political evil is more the rule rather than the exception. With free will however, politics occur for temporal, attributable reasons. The Syrian Muslim migrations occurred generally because President Obama accelerated Muslim terrorism and insurrection against the lawful Syrian government creating a very predictable displaced persons crisis. I have written about the way to stop the war being to stop supporting the war for several years. Manufactured desperation is a habit of the advantaged, while countercyclical - adaptation to the vast conventional war and anti-guerrilla war technology of the west seems to elicit terrorism from the faithless, lost and opportunistic determined to war.

Islam and Leftists
A comment made on one of my posts was; "Given the fact that many Muslim nations embody leftist ideology better than America". I think history supports the concept that Muslim nations have preponderantly been anti-communist besides being implicitly theocratic.
Consider the history of the tudeh (communist party) in Iran and Iraq; each were slaughtered after a fundamentalist (Khomeini revolution) or state socialist government (Iraq )took power. During the cold war many Muslim nations were on the side of the west in being anti-communist. Consider Afghanistan and Pakistan in the late Soviet era.
Yet with a history of being an arrested civilization fundamentally in opposition to western democratic traditions (as if much of the left today) contemporary Islam presents a huge challenge for the west to address and defend against.
A wikipedia article describes the history of the "Dar al-Harb (دار الحرب "house of war"; also referred to as dar al-Garb "house of the West", in some detail. The United States has virtually no history of substantial Muslim immigration. During the cold war we did not admit a lot of Russian communists, nor Japanese during the second world war, nor Eastern Europeans early in the 20th century when they were suspected of being anarchists. The U..S.A. has been able to keep its nation western and democratic because it has a history of defending it against potential adverse demographics. President Obama and the democrat party have worked to defeat that tradition. The U.S.A. has a history of defending itself against adverse ideology such as foreign theocracy and communism from taking over in the nation. Louis Farakhan's 'Nation of Islam' is a manifest reference to a theocratic ideal and entails the appearance of sedition.
Indonesia would be an excellent place to relocate Syrian refugees. then they could present potential security threats to Indonesia rather than the U.S.A. As the largest (demographically) nation in the world that is already Muslim Indonesia easily could absorb a million or two more Muslims without being a kernel of future terrorist growth and security costs.
I don't think that anyone would argue that Indonesia has better freedom of the press than the U.S.A. or that free speech is preponderantly better protected in Muslim nations than the U.S.A. One may view Muslim nations through rose colored glasses, yet they are also largely intolerant of even minority Muslim sects from Pakistan to Iran, Egypt to Saudi Arabia. Islam is a different society with a different history than that of the west, and has been so since its initial wars of expansion and attack upon Europe through Asia Minor, Iberia and Sicily.
One may be naive about the history of western democracy, yet keep in mind that American military aid to S.E. Asia during the cold war is a reason why certain political reforms gained some traction. The American left tend to have no concept of the social requirements for political and social organizations and how they relate to family structure. In fact the idea of cultural anthropology is alien to much of the left that would instead extrapolate American historical experience filtered through new age atheism and Darwinism upon every nation on Earth.
I do not mean to seem overly defensive of western values. It is just the case that I do not have a wish that the U.S.A. complicate its future and create a terrorist base for the next generation as well as trillions and trillions of debt.

Martian Tupperwhere Sweepstakes (satire)
Martian
Tuppurwhere Sweepstakes (satire)
The Synthetic Rainbow House of
the scenic District of Spindrift announced the next Martian
Tupperwhere Sweepstakes today. The winner of the contest to design a
3D printer for deployment on Mars able to make Tupperwhere housing
containers for Marstronauts from Y'Earth will receive an all-expenses
paid trip aboard a fabulous electro-magnetic mass launcher Mars
Luxury Lines shipping container making the voyage from Lunarville to
the Martian Moon Phobos' Tupperwhere industrial production facility
for a bird's eye view of 3d fabrication.
Because Phobos is gradually
experiencing stress fracturing breakdown from Martian gravitational
tidal forces and its own irregular shape the Synthetic Rainbow House
said Phobos would be given a comfort mesh and an elevator cable-tie
to the Martian surface to hold it in place, reduce its nervous stress
and take new Phobian arrivals down to Mars. Mars being a planet
without rainbows or hope is scheduled to receive its first shipment
of little houses on the prairie at the edge of the vast left-wing
depression Valles Marineris next year.
White House to Get Exterior Stealth makeover (satire)
Citing
p.r. problems with Tuareg of the Maghreb and additional elements of
the K.S.M. clan White House salesperson Josh Boo said the White House
was evolving its exterior coating and would be transforming with
camouflage stealth exterior surgery disappearing from the mundane
world for-others blending nonchalantly into the background of the
District of Columbia..
Boo
explained before a packed audience that back in the day white and
black were about the only practical colors with consistent color
available for painting. He said the name for the Presidential house
itself evolved as a description morphing to became recognized as a
disparaging term for Euro-Americans. A crowd of fifteen illegal alien
Mexican migrant workers with Washington Redskins jerseys were
peacefully marching beyond the White House fence with signs
protesting defamation of Euro-Americans demanding the name 'White
House' be changed to 'Cambio House'.
When
Boo took questions I asked if the remodeled exterior would resemble
that of Pei's glass pyramid at the Louvre. He said yes; exactly,
except the quasi-crustal would also be a photovoltaic input device
for energy saving and occasionally surface into visibility running
advertisements for corporate sponsors.
In
other news, Senator Read introduced legislation to change the name
'District of Columbia' to 'District of Zapata-Chigorin', and another
bank drive-through window was held up by a self-driving Volkswagen
with hidden Bugs Moran
software.
Senate Democrats to Build Syrian Migrant jihad Village in Las Vegas (satire)
In
order to defy a vast right-wing House vote to tighten up refugee
security checks that would require two pieces of photo I.D. to cash,
Senate minority leader Harvy Read said he would block any effort to
bring increased security screening to a vote in the Senate. Raising
table stakes he said he would offer a bill of his own that would
settle 10,000 Syrian refugees and bring all future Muslim refugee
immigrants to the table in Las Vegas. Read said that plans of the Muslim community infiltration organizer cannot wait.
Describing
the planned new Las Vegas subdivision to house the refugees; ‘Jihad
Village’, Read said that illegal alien construction workers in Las
Vegas need shovel ready jobs. Jihad village would be the first of
numerous subdivision expansions created in the desert to bring on
Muslim leftists to turn the tide of potentially fair elections in the
state toward the Democrat victory column.
Besides
several luxury community mosques and fully stocked refrigerators and
therapeutic Jacuzzis for each budget priced quarter million dollar
home before value added agile front-loading mark-ups Read said that
Jihad Village would hap tennis courts, a suicide bomber training
range and a Muslim special ops urban war political 'bad guy' pop-up
target range to let peaceful immigrants recover from Middle Eastern
trauma, take down dofuses and successfully blend into the masses
yearning to repaint the White House a different shade of grey every
month ug the year. Read said that he already had Saudi investors
lined up to develop and upgrade New Jihad Village.
K.S.M.
of the Planned Jihadhood's global political action committee
concerned with Nevada issued a press release saying that expansion is
a gamble yet the benefits of bringing more jihadist support forces to
Las Vegas outweigh the costs. With research and development costs for
lightweight fast attack weapons such as surface effects drones, and
self-driving automobile machine suicide delivery packages it is
useful to establish Muslim bases closer to the action, on the inside
lines.
When
this reporter visited the first completed units in Jihad Village the
tactical anti-politician pop-up target range was in full swing. The
only down-side of all the gunfire was the agitation it brought to the
corralled stockades of modestly right-wing native born citizens in
nearby concentration camp a. Those criminals were scofflaws
that never bought into Obamacare along with detainees imported from a
defunct former prison and present Communist Casino at Guantanamo
Bay.
Is Islam expansionist? Here ere three citations from the Quran on the subject;

"Fighting is prescribed for you, and ye dislike it. But it is possible that ye dislike a thing which is good for you, and that ye love a thing which is bad for you. But God knoweth, and ye know not. (2:216)

But when the forbidden months are past, then fight and slay the pagans wherever ye find them, and seize them, beleaguer them, and lie in wait for them in every stratagem (of war); but if they repent, and establish regular prayers and practice regular charity, then open the way for them: for God is Oft-forgiving, Most Merciful. (9:5)
Fight those who believe not in God nor the Last Day, nor hold that forbidden which hath been forbidden by God and His Apostle, nor acknowledge the religion of Truth, (even if they are) of the People of the Book (Christians and Jews), until they pay the jizya[tribute] with willing submission, and feel themselves subdued. (9:29)."

Floating Dollar and Ecosphere Values
President Reagan’s first budget director David Stockman might be regarded as the last American fiscal realist. Stockman reviews the nation’s financial woes due to monetary policy and taking the dollar off the gold standard and letting its value float without a necessity of reality checks.
The clever Nixon administration in order to win re-election took the dollar off the gold standard rather than exercising fiscal austerity. The Federal Reserve became free to print up as much currency as it wanted merely needing to finesse out inflation or deflation and the rest is history. Today with 19 trillion dollars of public debt and seven years of free ‘loans’ to big banks so they can print up their own e-dollars financial reality has gone the way of the buffalo without consequence, in theory.
Stockman takes exception to the idea that there aren’t consequences for the fiscal relativism that supports moral relativism. In his 2013 book ‘The Great Deformation’ he says that the nation has outsourced its business and imported goods with foreign purchases of U.S. bonds financing the cycle that even so seems to be inefficient i wanted to suggest a way to return the dollar to a material commodity; an unconventional one such as the total number of tons of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere, the total quantity of fresh water on the Earth available for drinking, or species biodiversity (number of living species), or even a basket including several ecospheric facts.
When species for instance become fewer the dollar decreases in value and when they increase (if possible) the value of the dollar would rise. Abundance rather than scarcity would be used to determine the value of the dollars. Because capitalism as it presently is has no cognizance of ecospheric value, tying the value of the dollar in a positive way to ecospheric values might be an approach to providing incentive to capitalists to restore the planetary ecosphere.
The Dark Side of Muslim Migration
The
problem of Muslim immigration through Democrat Party accomplices in
government to the United States exemplifies political reasoning
deficiency in government. For Democrat party leftists viewing
national and global demographic issues through a Stalinist historical
lens moderated a little with Leninism equivocation of all
non-straight white males is natural; all are viewed as allies to
subvert traditional American constitutional and historical values.
Thus Muslims are regarded as peers of value in the destruction of
historical American values, prioritized and defended with Pelosi
rhetoric and the Obama veto.
It
is the case that numbers differ in ordinality as well as cardinality,
yet if numbers may be used representational symbols for the purpose
of drawing an analogy, the Democrat party fails to discern the
different values-demographic values if you will, and regards 2s as
equal to 0s and 5s as equal to fire. While fire may be a fish out of
water in any given number series with a non-zero value, if it is
nothing at all comprising a set then any sort of non-real element is
as good as another. Democrat party pragmatic fiction paradigms
discern no substantive differences between the import of Muslims and
say, for example, Mexicans. Mexican illegal migrants and dual
passport holders graft America into Mexico with inherent corruption
of national democratic self-determination by the electorate. Muslim
migrants comprise a growing internal proletariat with implicit
seditious political values. Theocracy is the destiny of any
actualized Muslim nation and war exploiting any means at all to
arrive there is orthodox policy of the Quran. The left fail to
recognize Muslim immigrants as the humble beginning of their own
political extinction even given historical example such as the left’s
support of the Ayatollah Khomeini in his revolution against the Shah
with the communist party being the first purged after the populist
Muslim Revolution took power.
ObamaClintoncrats
would have the Muslim migration issue of just letting in desparate
women and children while their dead jihadist husbands or live
fighters are battling in Syria. There is more to it than that. The
American left have made interpretation of the constitution a floating
value exercise in unreality comparable to the floating value of the
dollar set into being by the Nixon administration in 1971. Instead of
strict construction and conservative interpretation of the
constitution staying as close to making decisions based on what the
constitution actual contains and letting the congress add anything
else, the Supreme Court has taken to expanding terms and ideas such
as privacy to include abortion (the founders would never have allowed
that) and have made decisions for homosexual marriage that also would
never had been sanctioned by the conservative Christian founders of
the nation.
It
is possible to take language and give words any sort of meaning none
likes. Kripke in ‘Naming and Necessity’ written about 1971found
that words have at least a little implicit meaning or neo-Platonic
non-associationist character. Even if one takes Quines ‘Word and
Object’ criteria as a paradigm for philosophy of language
interpretation of referent meanings with words finding their meaning
from historical context, a functional neo-Platonic value is present;
words to not just become blank tools for containing any sort of
meaning like algebraic literals when used in historical settings. One
cannot take the Bible and say it is a NASCAR guide to the year 2050
and use a computer editor to creating a new lexicon making it say so
and keep any semblance of the actual historical meaning it had when
written. The judiciary need to keep in mind how the founders thought
and what they would have intended themselves when interpreting the
constitution if they want to have any sort of veracity. Congress is
supposed to add new laws or change the constitution via
constitutional convention-not the judiciary as it interpolates
entirely fictitious interpretations of it as it has throughout the
last century.
How
often may one listen to Democrat politicians declare that America is
a nation of immigrants therefore Muslim immigrants must be admitted
in large numbers? It is a syllogism applied far too broadly for
meaning. Ask instead how often in American history before the 20th
century or even the 21st did the United States or even the Western
hemisphere nations import large numbers of Muslims? Did American
founder Christians have any help at all from Muslims?
In
the moral decline of the 41-42-44 years the United States has become
the target of Muslim jihadists. If economics may be viewed as a tool
of colonialism through other means, Muslim agitators have targeted
large colonialist economic symbols such as the WTC for destruction.
Besides being of symbolic power their destruction created a temporary
imbalance in economic competition between rival civilizations.
Logical
politicians might wonder why Muslim refugees ought not be relocated
to Muslim nations where their presence would not support the
development of a dar al harb-zone of war-in a non-Muslim nation. The
left fail entirely to comprehend that Islam, like the Communist party
of the former Soviet Union in a Trotskiite phase, is expansionist and
obligated to subdue the entire world to Islam. It is not wise to
encourage them in expanding by the establishment of a substantive
internal proletariat within the united States or Europe. it is a
paradox that the left in their antipathy to conservative traditional
values morally speaking fail to comprehend that the Muslim migrations
are a virtual direct feedback response loop antigen of correction to
their corruption of moral values. The first time a Muslim suicide
bomber takes out an abortion clinic the left any change their opinion
on the wisdom of admitting Muslim ‘refugees’ to the U.S.A. or
Europe.
