~WHAT IS THE TEST FOR THE SUPERIOR METHOD OF HAND-TO-HAND-COMBAT?~

~Jigoro Kano, being a small, weakly, young man studied Japanese Koryu Jujutsu for merely four years and later developed his own approach to Jujutsu, calling it Kano Jujutsu and later Judo, which removed the injurious atemi strikes (eye gouging, testicle kicking, throat striking, etc) and focused upon the standing grappling techniques which could be practiced in full-contact (Randori).

~The traditional Japanese Koryu Jujutsu only trained 'kata' against willing, unresisting, partners and utilized maiming, even lethal, atemi strikes to set up the grappling manuevers and crippling small joint manipulations. This made it almost impossible to safely train against an actual resisting partner in full-contact randori.

~Jigoro Kano believed that safer methods would permit full-contact randori sparring which would build experience and skill that would transition better to actual self-defense. So at only 22years of age Jigoro Kano opened his own school of Kano-Jujutsu aka 'Judo'.

~In 1886 the Tokyo Police Tournament set the stage for Jigoro Kano's modified Kano-Jujutsu, aka Judo, to be tested in full-contact matches against Japan's Koryu Experts. The rules forbade atemi striking, for safety purposes (to avoid eye gouges, ruptured testicles, or a broken hyoid bone with collapsed trachea) and victory was achieved by submission or a throw to one's back (ippon). Kano recruited top practitioners from various Koryu schools, even Aiki-Jujutsu schools, and put them through the full-contact training of his Kano-Jujutsu aka 'Judo' method.

~The Tokyo Police Tournament of 1886 witnessed Kano's Jujutsu/Judo overwhelmingly defeat all of Japan's Koryu masters in full contact challenge matches under the less than lethal rules. ~This led to the Japanese police adopting Kano's Jujutsu/Judo as their official training method for unarmed close-combat. And Kano’s school became the largest and most renown in Japan overnight.

~One school of Koryu Jujutsu trained to specialize in 'ground-grappling', while at that time Kano's school specialized in standing grappling and most often defeated their challengers with standing throws (ippon) to the mat rather than submissions. The school that specialized in 'ground-grappling' with ground-submissions was called Fusen Ryu Jujutsu and they decided to challenge Kano's school in full-contact randori.

~It's been documented by many that the Fusen Ryu practitioners, during the challenge matches, avoided the Kano Jujutsu/Judo practitioners' strength by not remaining standing up but rather going straight to the ground and pulling guard. Thus forcing the Judo grapplers to meet the Fusen Ryu grapplers in their area of expertise which resulted in a shocking first time defeat of Kano's school of Judo in a full-contact challenge. The Fusen Ryu grapplers utilized ground-submissions, not ippon/throws, to defeat the Judo opponents.

~ Immediately Jigoro Kano recognized the weakness in his method of Kano Jujutsu/Judo and quickly began cross-training with the Fusen Ryu to develop viable ground-fighting skills which were integrated into his Kano-Jujutsu/Judo school.

~Yukio Tani was a five foot tall, one hundred and twenty pound, Japanese immigrant to England who gained fame in 1900AD for his full contact challenge matches against all comers. He was renowned for defeating much larger and stronger thugs, brawlers, pugilists, and wrestlers in no-holds-barred matches with only one requirement: that they had to wear a Japanese Jujutsu Gi (a type of jacket) which allowed him to take hold of them to take their balance or to strangle them into submission. When Jigoro Kano visited England, for the purpose of spreading his Judo, and met with Yukio Tani it was a fortuitous moment for Jigoro Kano. He recruited Yukio Tani to help him spread the reputation of Kano’s Judo, via Yukio’s fame as a fighter, and awarded Yukio Tani a second dan on the spot. Yukio Tani accepted for the benefit of being under the umbrella of such a large, growing, organization.

~Years later a man named Carlos Gracie, of Brazil, would study merely four years with a Japanese immigrant whom also was a Kano Jujutsu/Judo expert by the name of Mitsuyo Maeda. This four years of training would be shared with his brothers during practice and eventually led to the development of Gracie Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu after some modifications by Helio Gracie. Like Yukio Tani, Helio Gracie was a very small and physically weak young man. By all accounts of his family members he was never able to perform one body pull-up in all of his life, yet using his modified Kano Jujutsu/Judo he was able to defeat many challengers in full-contact matches throughout Brazil (much like Yukio Tani had done in England) and thereby attract attention to his family’s brand of Jujutsu/Judo.

~Just like the Fusen Ryu ground-grappling specialists that defeated Kano’s early school, before being incorporated into Kano’s school, the Gracie’s also preferred to take down or lure their challengers into fighting them on the ground rather than remaining on their feet.  This strategy placed boxers, karateka, kick boxers, and street brawlers at a distinct disadvantage since they couldn’t utilize the power of their strikes while on the ground at extreme close-quarters.

~The Gracie family soon took their brand of Jujutsu/Judo to North America and began accepting challenges from boxers, wrestlers, kick-boxers, and practitioners of all unarmed Asian martial arts in order to spread their family’s brand of Jujutsu/Judo.  This culminated into a large challenge event with a great deal of marketing and profit for the city of Las Vegas Nevada, U.S.A., where the Gracie family challenged brawlers, fighters, martial artists, and professional fighters from all over the U.S. A. to a full-contact fight match better known as the Ultimate Fighting Challenge. The rules forbade small-joint manipulations, digital chokes, strikes to the knee, strikes to the throat, finger jabs to the eyes, eye gouging, tearing/clawing the face, ripping the ears, seizing the testicles (as well as other rules) although it was promoted to the public as a no-holds-barred fighting challenge to all hand to hand combat experts and empty-hand fighters. The Gracie family sent in one of their smallest family members to represent their family style of Jujutsu in this venue and Gracie Jiu-jitsu earned worldwide recognition as a result of his successes against much stronger and larger fighters of all backgrounds.

~Just as Jigoro Kano’s school was able to defeat all of the other Koryu Jujutsu schools in the 1886 Tokyo Police Tournament by removing small joint manipulations, neck cranks, and atemi striking (which some schools, like Daito Ryu Aiki-Jujutsu, rely heavily upon)  to gain victory and establish a reputation that drew Jigoro Kano’s Judo much respect, fame, and prosperity…Just as the Fusen Ryu school was able to defeat Jigoro Kano’s early school by finding a technical loophole in Jigoro Kano’s approach to hand to hand combat and the rules sanctioned in the match, in refusing to fight standing up (where Judo was strongest) but forcing the Kano Jujutsu/Judo fighters to engage the Fusen Ryu fighters on the ground where the Fusen Ryu practitioners specialized in ground-grappling submissions…Just as the Gracie Family was able to dominate the early Ultimate Fight Challenge (like Jigoro Kano) by removing small-joint manipulations, neck cranks, digital chokes, strikes to the knees, fish hooking the mouth, seizing the testicles (which some martial arts, like Aiki-Jujutsu, almost exclusively rely upon small joint manipulations, neck cranks, and digital chokes to neutralize an attacker) and by forcing the fighters into their area of operation on the ground (like Fusen Ryu ) where Gracie Jiu-jitsu specializes in submissions…I would argue that today one could modify the rules and the venue once again in order to lay the advantage to one’s own method of unarmed combat while also claiming (as did the Gracie’s) that it would provide a more realistic imitation of a real street fight/self-defense situation.

~In the experience of this writer and many others whom have lived an ‘interesting’ life full of actual, real-world, close combat situations for survival and even life or death, a more realistic challenge to provide a test of a combat (martial) art would be to ‘forbid’ all lethal techniques as well as maiming eye gouges from the tournament, but ‘permitting’ small joint manipulations, kicks to the side of the knee, digital chokes, and fish hooking the mouth.  And making it a rule that should or when the fight goes to the ground one party must submit the other party or escape and get back to their feet within two seconds (approximately the amount of time one would have before one’s attacker or opponent could receive violent, or lethal, intervention from his battle-buddies, comrades, brothers, friends, or fellow gang members).

~By placing a 'two or three second max time limit' for one of the fighters to either submit his opponent or escape and get back to his feet, this would make any challenge match more realistic for proving which hand-to-hand-combat method (unarmed martial art) or, better yet, which application of the various unarmed-combat (martial) arts more realistically functions for hand-to-hand-combat and unarmed self-defense.

~The understanding here is that historically it’s been ‘less’ about the techniques from any school of unarmed martial art, or hand-to-hand-combat, that is superior in a close-combat encounter but more so about which school incorporated full-contact randori during their training to develop a relatively safe and realistic simulation of real-world hand-to-hand-combat. Then in the competitive, challenge, aspect against other schools, styles, and practitioners the decisive factor had been more about forcing the opponent to meet you on your own terms, either by imposed rules or by other methods.

~In the safety of a one verses one, man-to-man, hand-to-hand, fight with rules and a referee, with no threat of others jumping in to the aid of one’s opponent, the ground-grappling game ‘certainly’ has historically proven itself advantageous (if not superior) as a method of hand-to-hand-combat.

~However, in real-world combat situations, be it on a battlefield, in the streets, or in a violent prison, working the fight from the ground (like the Fusen Ryu and Gracie Jiu-jitsu schools preferred for defeating their opponents in challenge matches) would be suicidal as an approach to hand-to-hand-combat/self-defense. The ‘ground-escape’ methods, perhaps the best in the world, certainly are efficient for self-defense. It is the preferred method of ‘fighting on the ground’, which certainly is advantageous in a challenge match, that we find to be impractical and suicidal for hand-to-hand-combat/empty hand self-defense in a possible life or death situation.  

~So let’s implement the aforementioned ‘two or three second ground-rule’ and let’s permit  small joint manipulations, digital chokes, fish-hooking, strikes to the knee joint, and ‘no-hand-protection’ and demonstrate how  this would change the outcome of an ultimate fighting challenge designed to study which methods are more efficient and effective for a hand-to-hand-combat situation in the real-world (I/E: violent street gang assault, prison assault, assault during a riot, or hand-to-hand on a battle-field.)

'Mastering Jujutsu' by Renzo Gracie and John Danaher.

ARE MEXICANS TRULY 'INDIGENOUS' TO THE LANDS NORTH OF THE RIO GRANDE?

~La Reconquista and Liberal propaganda is being spread like wildfire and being accepted as facts and regurgitated by the ignorant or naïve without doing any historical, cultural, or indigenous research on the matter...Here's the truth about the real history concerning their propaganda.
~The Aztec Empire stretched across central and southern Mexico and included many indigenous languages and cultures in 'central and southern' Mexico. The Spanish invaders and millions of African slaves came later. More Africans were imported into Mexico than into North America, what is today referred to as the United States. Then later came the French colonists along with many Asian immigrants.
~The indigenous Aztec empire, indigenous Tarumara, indigenous Huichol, indigenous Zapoteca, Mizteca, Ramamuri, or any of the other indigenous tribes of Mexico were 'never' indigenous to any of the lands today that make up the United States of North America.
~The Southwestern states, the Liberals and hispanics are claiming to be the indigenous homeland of Mexicans, are and always have been the original homeland of indigenous tribes and Nations like the Caddo, Apache, Comanche, Navajo, Pueblo tribes, Zuni, Hopi, Havasupai, Jemez, Kiowa, Maricopa, Mohave, Paiute, Papago, Panamint, Pecos, Pima, Shoshoni, Sobaipuri, Tewa, Ute, Walapai, Yavapai, Yuma, and others (some whom are now extinct).
~In fact, when the Spanish-Mexican Government invaded the lands today known as Texas ( 'Tejas' in the Caddo language, not Spanish as many Hispanics claim), New Mexico, Arizona, Utah, Colorado, California, and Nevada to take control by force they were just another invader among a series of invaders and they battled constantly against the home-land security forces of these aforementioned 'indigenous' tribes whom wanted to drive the Mexicans 'back' south across the Rio-Grande to where 'their' homeland was. In fact, it was the Mexican Army who attacked and murdered the family of the Apache man Goyathle' and drove him to take up arms against the Mexican invaders and made raids across the border into Mexican towns to attack them where they lived, as they had done to 'his' family without any cause other than the desire to 'conquer' and 'seize' what was not there's to take. Which later the U.S. Government, following after the example of both the Spanish and then the Mexicans, decided to play the illegal invaders and murder or enslave all of the indigenous people of the land that they 'coveted'.
~Mexicans are often either indigenous people from the land that is now called Mexico, or more often than not they are a Hispanic mixture of the indigenous tribes of the land 'south' of the Rio Grande, African, and European (mostly Spanish and French). There are many also of Asian decent due to a large influx of Asian immigrants.
~So please, when you hear these Liberals, or Hispanic/Latino Reconquistas, or the naively-ignorant who parrot everything that they read on social-media or heard from propaganda, preaching that Mexicans are 'Indigenous' to the lands north of the Rio Grande in what is today called the United States and that they're not 'illegal' immigrants because this is 'their' native homelands offer them some actual historical facts that are not bent by Spanish, Mexican, or Anglo-American history (propaganda) as you've just read here. And please do it without emotion, sarcasm, or frustration. People will respond to calmly proposed facts better than they will to emotional preaching or angry protesting, if they'll listen at all (but bless the few whom do), and please don't be one of the ones whom propagate this propaganda being spread by Liberals and the Reconquista's, because the indigenous tribes and nations still living north of the Rio Grande know the true history of this country...even if the Mexican-Reconquista's and the Liberal Anglo/Afro-Americans have deceived themselves with their own propaganda.
~Now here is another truth being ignored by the Liberals and the Reconquista's. Guatemalans, whom are all descended from or still belong to the Mayan people, are indigenous to parts of southern Mexico, Guatemala, Belize, and other Central American countries and yet they are 'not' permitted to illegally immigrate into Mexico nor any other countries surrounding Guatemala today. In fact, and I've personally befriended many, they are arrested, sometimes tortured, and deported back to Guatemala when they are caught 'illegally' entering Mexico for a chance at a better life. For Guatemala's people, Mexico offers a better economy and a chance to start over. For Mexico's people the U.S.A. offers a better economy and a chance to start over. When the U.S.A. collapses will Mexico allow 'illegal' immigrants, even Hispanic-Americans, to 'illegally' invade their country south of the Rio Grande to escape a collapsed economy?
~Well, if they wont do it for their indigenous Guatemalan neighbors and cousins they most likely will not do if for you...Quid Pro Quo.

EXAMINATION OF WHETHER I.S.I.S. JIHADI FOLLOW THE TEACHINGS OF MUHAMMAD AND THE KKK FOLLOW THE TEACHINGS OF CHRIST JESUS.

         ~LET US EXAMINE THE COMMANDS OF ISLAM TO THE BELIEVERS~




Quran (2:191-193) - "And kill them wherever you find them, and turn them out from where they have turned you out. And Al-Fitnah [disbelief or unrest] is worse than killing...

but if they desist, then lo! Allah is forgiving and merciful. And fight them until there is no more Fitnah [disbelief and worshipping of others along with Allah] and worship is for Allah alone. But if they cease, let there be no transgression except against Az-Zalimun (the polytheists, and wrong-doers, etc.)"
-(Translation is from the Noble Quran) The verse prior to this (190) refers to "fighting for the cause of Allah those who fight you" leading some to believe that the entire passage refers to a defensive war in which Muslims are defending their homes and families. The historical context of this passage is not defensive warfare, however, since Muhammad and his Muslims had just relocated to Medina and were not under attack by their Meccan adversaries. In fact, the verses urge offensive warfare, in that Muslims are to drive Meccans out of their own city (which they later did). Verse 190 thus means to fight those who offer resistance to Allah's rule (ie. Muslim conquest). The use of the word "persecution" by some Muslim translators is disingenuous (the actual Arabic words for persecution - "idtihad" - and oppression - a variation of "z-l-m" - do not appear in the verse). The word used instead, "fitna", can mean disbelief, or the disorder that results from unbelief or temptation. This is certainly what is meant in this context since the violence is explicitly commissioned "until religion is for Allah" - ie. unbelievers desist in their unbelief.



~Quran (2:244) - "Then fight in the cause of Allah, and know that Allah Heareth and knoweth all things."



~Quran (2:216) - "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 Allah knoweth, and ye know not."
-Not only does this verse establish that violence can be virtuous, but it also contradicts the myth that fighting is intended only in self-defense, since the audience was obviously not under attack at the time. From the Hadith, we know that this verse was narrated at a time that Muhammad was actually trying to motivate his people into raiding merchant caravans for loot.



~Quran (3:56) - "As to those who reject faith, I will punish them with terrible agony in this world and in the Hereafter, nor will they have anyone to help."



~Quran (3:151) - "Soon shall We cast terror into the hearts of the Unbelievers, for that they joined companions with Allah, for which He had sent no authority".
-This speaks directly of polytheists, yet it also includes Christians, since they believe in the Trinity (ie. what Muhammad incorrectly believed to be 'joining companions to Allah').



~Quran (4:74) - "Let those fight in the way of Allah who sell the life of this world for the other. Whoso fighteth in the way of Allah, be he slain or be he victorious, on him We shall bestow a vast reward."
-The martyrs of Islam are unlike the early Christians, who were led meekly to the slaughter. These Muslims are killed in battle as they attempt to inflict death and destruction for the cause of Allah. This is the theological basis for today's suicide bombers.



~Quran (4:76) - "Those who believe fight in the cause of Allah…"



~Quran (4:89) - "They but wish that ye should reject Faith, as they do, and thus be on the same footing (as they): But take not friends from their ranks until they flee in the way of Allah (From what is forbidden). But if they turn renegades, seize them and slay them wherever ye find them; and (in any case) take no friends or helpers from their ranks."



~Quran (4:95) - "Not equal are those of the believers who sit (at home), except those who are disabled (by injury or are blind or lame, etc.), and those who strive hard and fight in the Cause of Allah with their wealth and their lives. Allah has preferred in grades those who strive hard and fight with their wealth and their lives above those who sit (at home). Unto each, Allah has promised good (Paradise), but Allah has preferred those who strive hard and fight, above those who sit (at home) by a huge reward "
~This passage criticizes "peaceful" Muslims who do not join in the violence, letting them know that they are less worthy in Allah's eyes. It also demolishes the modern myth that "Jihad" doesn't mean holy war in the Quran, but rather a spiritual struggle. Not only is this Arabic word (mujahiduna) used in this passage, but it is clearly not referring to anything spiritual, since the physically disabled are given exemption. (The Hadith reveals the context of the passage to be in response to a blind man's protest that he is unable to engage in Jihad, which would not make sense if it meant an internal struggle). According to the verse, Allah will allow the disabled into Paradise, but will provide a larger reward to those who are able to kill others in his cause.



~Quran (4:104) - "And be not weak hearted in pursuit of the enemy; if you suffer pain, then surely they (too) suffer pain as you suffer pain..."
-Is pursuing an injured and retreating enemy really an act of self-defense?



~Quran (5:33) - "The punishment of those who wage war against Allah and His messenger and strive to make mischief in the land is only this, that they should be murdered or crucified or their hands and their feet should be cut off on opposite sides or they should be imprisoned; this shall be as a disgrace for them in this world, and in the hereafter they shall have a grievous chastisement"



~Quran (8:12) - "I will cast terror into the hearts of those who disbelieve. Therefore strike off their heads and strike off every fingertip of them"
-No reasonable person would interpret this to mean a spiritual struggle.



~Quran (8:15) - "O ye who believe! When ye meet those who disbelieve in battle, turn not your backs to them. (16)Whoso on that day turneth his back to them, unless maneuvering for battle or intent to join a company, he truly hath incurred wrath from Allah, and his habitation will be hell, a hapless journey's end."



~Quran (8:39) - "And fight with them until there is no more fitna (disorder, unbelief) and religion should be only for Allah" Some translations interpret "fitna" as "persecution", but the traditional understanding of this word is not supported by the historical context (See notes for 2:193). The Meccans were simply refusing Muhammad access to their city during Haj. Other Muslims were allowed to travel there - just not as an armed group, since Muhammad had declared war on Mecca prior to his eviction. The Meccans were also acting in defense of their religion, since it was Muhammad's intention to destroy their idols and establish Islam by force (which he later did). Hence the critical part of this verse is to fight until "religion is only for Allah", meaning that the true justification of violence was the unbelief of the opposition. According to the Sira (Ibn Ishaq/Hisham 324) Muhammad further explains that "Allah must have no rivals."


~Quran (3:54) - "And they (the disbelievers) schemed, and Allah schemed (against them): and Allah is the best of schemers."
-The Arabic word used here for scheme (or plot) is makara, which literally means 'deceit'. If Allah is supremely deceitful toward unbelievers, then there is little basis for denying that Muslims are allowed to do the same. (See also 8:30 and 10:21) Islam claims that Allah is the "best of deceivers" and so followers of Islam are serving and worshipping "the best of deceivers". While followers of Christ Jesus would argue that Satan the devil (Lucifer) is the greatest of deceivers and father of all lies.


~Quran (9:3) - "...Allah and His Messenger are free from liability to the idolaters..." The dissolution of oaths with the pagans who remained at Mecca following its capture. They did nothing wrong, but were evicted anyway.


~Quran (3:28) - This verse tells Muslims not to take those outside the faith as friends, unless it is to "guard themselves" against danger, meaning that there are times when a Muslim should appear friendly to non-Muslims, even though they should not feel that way..


~Quran (16:106) - Establishes that there are circumstances that can "compel" a Muslim to tell a lie.


                                                          *Hadith and Sira*       

~Bukhari (52:269) - "The Prophet said, 'War is deceit.'"
-The context of this is thought to be the murder of Usayr ibn Zarim and his thirty unarmed men by Muhammad's men after he "guaranteed" them safe passage.
~Bukhari (49:857) - "He who makes peace between the people by inventing good information or saying good things, is not a liar."
- Lying is permitted when the end justifies the means.

~Bukhari (84:64-65) - Speaking from a position of power at the time, Ali confirms that lying is permitted in order to deceive an "enemy." We see this in the way that Muslims claim Islam to be a religion based upon peace and tolerance of non-Muslims and one that does not 'condone' slavery, pedophilia, terrorism, beheading of Christians and Jews, extortion taxation of unbelievers, and murdering unbelievers whom refuse to convert, refuse to pay extortion tax, and refuse to enter into slavery in order to deceive unbelievers until the Muslim population grows within a society and they are in a political position of power (thus gaining 'the upper hand'.)

 ~Sahih Muslim (32:6303) - "...he did not hear that exemption was granted in anything what the people speak as lie but in three cases: in battle, for bringing reconciliation amongst persons and the narration of the words of the husband to his wife, and the narration of the words of a wife to her husband (in a twisted form in order to bring reconciliation between them)."

~Bukhari (50:369) - Recounts the murder of a poet, Ka'b bin al-Ashraf, at Muhammad's insistence. The men who volunteered for the assassination used dishonesty to gain Ka'b's trust, pretending that they had turned against Muhammad. This drew the victim out of his fortress, whereupon he was brutally slaughtered.


                                                            NOTES
                Muslims are allowed to lie to unbelievers in order to defeat them.


-There are four forms:

Taqiyya - Saying something that isn't true as it relates to the Muslim identity.

Kitman - Lying by omission. An example would be when Muslim apologists quote only a fragment of verse 5:32 (that if anyone kills "it shall be as if he had killed all mankind") while neglecting to mention that the rest of the verse (and the next) mandate murder in undefined cases of "corruption" and "mischief."

Tawriya - Intentionally creating a false impression.

Muruna - 'Blending in' by setting aside some practices of Islam or Sharia in order to advance others and hide one's intentions. Such as the hijackers on September 11th whom visited strip clubs, drank alcohol, shaved off their beards, and engaged in various forms of Haram (forbidden) activities in order to 'blend in' among infidels while planning and carrying out their Jihad mission for Allah ("the best of deceivers" Quran 3:54)


-While many Muslims tell 'infidels' that they do not condone Jihadi terrorism and Jihadi suicide bombers, the famous Arab television network Al-Jazeera calls every Arab suicide bomber a shaheed (martyr)...Now please take a moment to digest that fact.


                                      Quran Surah that dictate beheading and killing Kaffirs:


~Quran 5:33-“The punishment of those who wage war against Allah and His Messenger, and strive with might and main for mischief through the land is: execution (Islamic law dictates this as beheading), or crucifixion, or the cutting off of hands and feet from opposite sides, or exile from the land: that is their disgrace in this world, and a heavy punishment is theirs in the Hereafter;”

~Quran 8:12- “I will instill terror into the hearts of the unbelievers: smite ye above their necks and smite all their finger-tips off.”


~Quran 47:4- “Therefore, when ye meet the Unbelievers (in fight), strike off their heads; at length; then when you have made wide Slaughter among them, carefully tie up the remaining captives”: thereafter (is the time for) either generosity or ransom: Until the war lays down its burdens.”


~Quran 9:29 - Fight those that do not believe in Allah nor the last day, nor hold that forbidden which has been forbidden by Allah and His Messenger, nor acknowledge the Religion of Truth, (even if they are) of the People Of The Book (Christians and Jews), until they pay the Jizya with willing submission, and feel themselves subdued. Quran 9:30 - The Jews call 'Uzair a son of Allah, and the Christians call Christ the Son of Allah. That is a saying from their mouth; (in this) they but imitate what the unbelievers of old used to say. Allah's curse be on them: how they are deluded away from the Truth! 


~Quran 9:123 - O you who believe, fight the Unbelievers who gird you about, and let them find firmness in you: and know that Allah is with those who fear Him.
-'who gird you about' is often used to condone Muslims to attack their Unbelieving neighbors and neighbors whom refuse to convert to Islam, such as The People of the Book (Christians and Jews).


                 ~DOES ISLAM CONDONE PEDOPHILIA/CHILD RAPE~


~Many adult and child victims of ISIL, as well as other Jihadi groups abroad, have suffered the universal crime of rape at the hands of Jihadi claiming to be Muslims justified in Islam. Can we find a single place in Islam that condones intercourse with children? If not, then these men are not Muslim men following the teachings of Islam at all. If so, then these men are indeed Muslims following Islam.


~واللائي يئسن من المحيض من نسائكم ان ارتبتم فعدتهن ثلاثة اشهر واللائي لم يحضن واولات الاحمال اجلهن ان يضعن حملهن ومن يتق الله يجعل له من امره يسرا


Transliteration: Waalla-ee ya-isna mina almaheedi min nisa-ikum ini irtabtum faAAiddatuhunna thalathatu ashhurin waalla-ee lam yahidna waolatu al-ahmali ajaluhunna an yadaAAna hamlahunna waman yattaqi Allaha yajAAal lahu min amrihi yusran


Quran 65:4 Such of your women as have passed the age of monthly courses, for them the prescribed period, if ye have any doubts, is three months, and for those who have no courses (it is the same): for those who carry (life within their wombs), their period is until they deliver their burdens: and for those who fear Allah, He will make their path easy.
-
Here the 'Iddah is prescribed to three categories of women:

1. First the phrase: “Yaisna min al-maheedhi” which means “those women who are desperate of menses” is an indication to women who reached the stage of menstruation but do not menstruate and of those who reached menopause. Desperate of menses underlines that it concerns women who though reached the age, fail to menstruate too. Their 'Iddah period is three months.
2. Next comes, “Wallaee Lam yahidhna” which means “those who have not menstruated yet” This group of females are pre-pubescent girls who have not yet menstruated. Here the 'Iddah prescribed for them is equal to the previous group of women (ie. three months).
3. Lastly, the women who are pregnant - their prescribed 'iddah is until they have given birth.

~The Noble Qur'an has also mentioned the waiting period [i.e. for a divorced wife to remarry] for the wife who has not yet menstruated, saying: "And those who no longer expect menstruation among your women - if you doubt, then their period is three months, and [also for] those who have not menstruated" [Qur'an 65:4]. Since this is not negated later, we can take from this verse that it is permissible to have sexual intercourse with a prepubescent girl. The Qur'an is not like the books of jurisprudence which mention what the implications of things are, even if they are prohibited. It is true that the prophet (PBUH) entered into a marriage contract with A'isha when she was six years old, however he did not have sex with her until she was nine years old, according to al-Bukhari. Submitted by Ahmad, IslamOnline, December 24, 2010.


~Al-Bukhari (au.), Muhammad M. Khan (tr.), Dar-us-Salam Publications, vol. 7, book 67, ch. 39, p. 57:
(39) CHAPTER. Giving one's young children in marriage (is permissible).
By virtue of the Statement of Allah : "...and for those who have no (monthly) courses (i.e. they are still immature).. (V.65:4) And the 'Idda for the girl before puberty is three months (in the above Verse).
5133. Narrated 'Aishah; that the Prophet wrote the marriage contract with her when she was six years old and he consummated his marriage when she was nine years old, and then she remained with him for nine years (i.e. till his death).


                                                            QUESTION
~Taking into consideration this very brief look into Islam, let us ask the following question, intellectually, devoid of emotion: 
~ Are the Islamic Jihadi (like the Taliban, Islamic State of Iraq and al-Sham, Al Qaeda, Abu Sayyaf, and others) of today actually following the commands of Allah and their prophet Mohammed, according to Islam? Are their actions condoned by their prophet Mohammed and by Islam?






               ~NOW LET US EXAMINE THE COMMANDS OF CHRIST JESUS~




Matthew 5:9  “Blessed are the peacemakers, for they shall be called sons of God.


Matthew 7:12 Therefore all things whatsoever ye would that men should do to you, do ye even so to them: for this is the law and the prophets.


Luke 6:31
 And as ye would that men should do to you, do ye also to them likewise.


Matthew 22:36-40
³⁶ Master, which is the great commandment in the law?
³⁷ Jesus said unto him, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind.
³⁸ This is the first and great commandment.
³⁹ And the second is like unto it, Thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself.
⁴⁰ On these two commandments hang all the law and the prophets.


Mark 12
29 And Jesus answered him, The first of all the commandments is, Hear, O Israel; The Lord our God is one Lord:
30 And thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind, and with all thy strength: this is the first commandment.
31 And the second is like, namely this, Thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself. There is none other commandment greater than these.


~Now these are just a few of the most important commands which Christ Jesus (Y'e'shua) gave to HIS followers and all mankind. In fact, in Mark 12 verse 31 it is recorded that HE says there is no commandment greater than these (referring to verses 29-31) so we need not really look any further for a concise, brief, examination of the commandments of Christ Jesus.


~Now, let us ask the following intellectual questions, void of emotion. In light of these commandments of Christ Jesus, highlighted in red, in comparison to the actions, behavior, and terrorism committed by the Ku Klux Klan in the southern states of north America during the height of their power and political influence, can we accurately say that the Ku Klux Klan terrorist organization were following and practicing the commandments of Christ Jesus (Y'e'shua)?




~Did the Ku Klux Klan love their neighbors as themselves? Did the Ku Klux Klan do unto others as they would want others to do unto them? Did the Ku Klux Klan act as peace makers or did they act as terrorists whom frightened, intimidated, attacked, tortured, mutilated, and murdered their neighbors? John 8:44, the Lord Christ Jesus says:
⁴⁴ Ye are of your father the devil, and the lusts of your father ye will do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar, and the father of it.


~Here we see that Christ Jesus accuses Satan (the adversary), the devil, of being a murderer from the beginning and condemns them that do the lusts of the devil as being the children of the devil. History has accurately recorded the Ku Klux Klan as having been murderers of innocent men, women, and children. Christ Jesus condemns the devil of being a murderer from the beginning. So who is the father of the Ku Klux Klan terrorists?

~Had the Ku Klux Klan practiced charity, love for 'all' of their neighbors, treated 'all' of their neighbors as they wished to be treated, and did to them as they would want done unto themselves then we could accurately say that they were followers of 'Christ' Jesus and therefore accurately labeled as 'Christians' (meaning literally, 'little anointed ones' or translated as followers of the anointed one).


~Today in modern English the label Christian is meant to mean 'a follower of Christ (the anointed one) Jesus and HIS commands'. Despite modern anti-Christ propaganda claiming that the KKK, Adolph Hitler, P.O.T.U.S. Andrew Jackson, and other terrorists were Christians an intellectual person of reason can quite easily examine the commands of Christ Jesus and compare them to the preaching, actions, crimes against humanity, and other wicked works committed by such people. If their fruits, their actions, do not follow the commands of Christ Jesus, but rather go against 'everything' that Christ Jesus commanded HIS followers to do, than it is only logical that they never were 'followers of Christ Jesus' or 'Christians'.


~The same logic can be applied to others today whom practice terror, crimes against humanity, machinations, and perversion while falsely flying under the banner of 'Christ'. In the military there is a term for when one commits such wickedness under the banner of their enemy in order to lay the blame at the feet of one's enemy and turn the winds of politics against them. It is called a 'false flag operation' and that is exactly what the devil and his children have always done and continue to do, even until the present.


                                                               QUESTION
~Taking into consideration this very brief look into the GOSPEL OF CHRIST JESUS, let us ask the following question, intellectually, devoid of emotion: 
~Are terrorists like Adolph Hitler, the Ku Klux Klan, and others whom have committed atrocities, genocide, slavery, and other human rights violations (some while flying under a false flag and claiming to be followers of Christ Jesus/Christians) actually following the commands of Christ Jesus according to the Gospel?

                                                          CONCLUSION

~If you come to a conclusion that none of these terrorists, or others like them throughout history, were emulating Christ Jesus nor following the commandments of Christ Jesus, according to the Gospel, then we must admit that none of them can be labeled as 'Christians' or 'Followers of Christ Jesus'. Rather they should be more appropriately labeled as followers of the satanic devil, Lucifer, operating under a false-flag in an attempt to discredit and slander Christ Jesus throughout the world.


~So whenever we see provocateurs and anti-Christ agents flooding the media and the internet with accusations that 'Christians' have committed atrocities, genocides, and terrorism throughout history to justify the current actions of Islamic Jihadi while attempting to shame Christians into remaining silent in condemnation against the atrocities and terrorism being committed by self-professing Islamic Jihadi across the globe one must consider the brief intellectual, non-emotional, investigation presented here in this blog.


~Peace be with you~

~KLEENEX AND PAPERFORWATER.ORG HAVE PROVIDED MUCH NEEDED WATER TO A DINE' NAVAJO FAMILY AND YET SOME HAVE CRITICIZED THIS ACT OF KINDNESS WITH IGNORANCE~

~ Upon recently viewing a wonderful video documentary of a project that a generous American family and Kleenex corporation teamed up to bring water to a  Dine'/ Navajo family I felt moved in my heart to feel gratitude to the Creator Almighty for placing such kindness into the hearts of his children to perform such altruistic acts of unadulterated charity for the suffering and to raise much needed awareness of the inhumane situations which have been imposed upon many Indigenous tribes throughout the United States, as well as Canada, for many generations while the government controlled media effectively has kept the mainstream American public ignorant of these human rights violations and inhumane conditions deliberately imposed upon Indigenous tribes with the U.S.A. for the purpose of making living conditions so intolerable that the people will give up their communities, their homes, their culture, and their language to disperse themselves throughout U.S. cities and vanish completely in the way that mainstream American television, Hollywood movies, and government public school's history books have attempted to portray to the world for such a very long time.


~ Thank you Kleenex and PAPERFORWATER.ORG for bringing public awareness about an issue that has plagued many Native communities for many generations without receiving 'any' attention or news coverage from the Government controlled media.


~However, let me add, as soon as I was brought to such joy over this beautiful act of kindness I soon  read the jealous, angry, and bigoted remarks of some non-native Americans in the comment section below the film. To may surprise most of these negative comments came from Americans whom not many generations ago were a minority in their own right within the United States.


~In response to the plethora of negative and misinformed comments spewed by many of the non-tribal/non-indigenous Americans whom have been fed Government disinformation and public school propaganda all of their lives there are some facts I feel led to 'briefly' touch upon so that only willful ignorance will be the blame of anyone whom shares their ideas and reads this brief writing.


~For the people in Flint, whom have 'recently' had to experience this hardship, and have received so much media attention with such little help, I pray that they shall receive relief very soon. 


~I'd like to say that the Government doesn't take care of people on the Rez, but in fact have always done and continue to do everything in their power to machinate against the people, poison the land, increase hardships, and subtly continue the genocide against Native people while controlling the media and silencing Native activists, through the F.B.I., who succeed in drawing any National attention to the oppression, biological terrorism, and deliberate indifference being imposed upon Native communities across the U.S. who are determined to maintain tribal and ethnic identity as well as culture and language...


~What does the B.L.M. have to do with it, is that the Bureau of Land Management control reservation land and rule it with an iron fist. The B.L.M. is the arm which Uncle Sam and corporations enact land grabs through breech of treaty, strip mine and poison the land and water, create bio-and-eco-terrorism on reservations which result in epidemic proportions of death, birth defects, still born babies, dying cattle, land that is increasingly more impossible to farm, restriction of where one can now set down a trailer or build a home on the reservation, the granting nuclear power facilities permits to operate on reservation lands and pollute with more toxic chemicals, the B.L.M. grants mining corporations permits to mine radioactive minerals on reservation lands despite tribal protests and cares not about the epidemic deaths and birth defects which have come/are coming from this, and numerous other issues which Americans are unaware of because the Government controlled media will 'never' report on these issues.


~Native people are still the forgotten people and in mainstream American society usually only come up (often erroneously) in history books, Hollywood westerns, and whenever someone claims that they're grandmother was a Choctaw or Cherokee princess or their grandfather was a Choctaw or Cherokee chief. Or when propagandist want to rewrite our history in order to destroy Native people's origins and ancestral ties to this land while strengthening their own claims to this land, in espousing prevarications concerning an ancient immigration from Asia (even though recent DNA studies have proven no genetic ancestry to Asians, Africans or Europeans within our full blood Native family member and tribal members DNA). And any other time Natives are addressed by American public is referring to casinos, which not all tribes have nor do all tribal members receive financial benefits from them.


~In fact the Government receives most of the revenue from them and that is why they are allowed to operate on or near 'some' reservations. Never the less, majority of Native fathers and many mothers are forced to work off the Rez and send money home to their children, as they watch them grow up in photos the way prison inmates do with their children, and then there is the massive unspoken epidemic, which the Government controlled media and law enforcement hide from the American public, which is the epidemic of missing, vanishing, and murdered Native women and children across all of North America...


~They report on the missing and murdered children and women of 'every other racial group' that makes up the American population, but they NEVER report the 'statistically' greater disappearances and murders being committed annually against our sisters, aunties, daughters, mothers, cousins, and children in this country.


~Canada has only recently acknowledged this ethnically disproportionate epidemic suffered by Natives and ignored for decades by police, media, and the government. But the U.S. Government and media still sweeps it under the rug and continues to save their tears for the misfortunes and injustice suffered by everyone else in the earth, yet not for Indigenous Native American Tribal people...but I digress. (Peace be with you all.)

Poetic Ramblings Of An Insomniac

~Regardless where I go, there I am waiting...like an inescapable shadow of which I'd like to circumsize myself away from.
So let me sleep the sleep of a thousand sleeps and dream the dream of a thousand dreams.
Homesick, for a place I've never known and exhausted with this temporal realm.
A realm of frivolous vanity and meaningless masquerading as greatness.
Where is the egress, the exit, or the backdoor?
Praying for peace but battling the ever internal war.
Pain and grief are a soldier's constant companions, they'll never leave him...not in 'this' life.
Even in a crowded room one always feels alone.
When alone one always feels over crowded.
Adorned in a civilian mantle, I feel like a farce.
All the while the heart still longs for the battle-force.
Three two seven Infantry, rendezvous with destiny.
Still singing cadences, like it was just today.
Time stands still when you go away.
Dreams-of-your-father, I'm a fish out of water.
The music has stopped but the melody still plays.
It is the song that never ends, going on and on my friend.
Do the others hear it anymore, or is it only me?
O'Hail, O'hail, O'Infantry, civilian life is killing me...

~An Article Detailing U.S. Government Funded Eco/Bio-Terrorism On An Indigenous Navajo American Reservation~

~This is an article I wish to share, written by another, unlike all of my other blogs, but never the less powerful in bringing about awareness of an issue that has been, and still is, all to common in the United States on tribal lands. It is an issue of Government sanctioned eco-and-bio-terrorism which has cost and continues to cost countless, unreported, Indigenous American lives from numerous tribal reservations and Indigenous/Native American communities. Just like the Navajo communities spoken of in this article below...

For The Navajo Nation, Uranium Mining's Deadly a legacy that poisons the land and it will never go away, which lingers from one generation to the next generation.

The federal government is cleaning up a long legacy of uranium mining within the Navajo Nation — some 27,000 square miles spread across Utah, New Mexico and Arizona that is home to more than 250,000 people.


Many Navajo people have died of kidney failure and cancer, conditions linked to uranium contamination. And new research from the CDC shows uranium in babies born now.


Mining companies blasted 4 million tons of uranium out of Navajo land between 1944 and 1986. The federal government purchased the ore to make atomic weapons. As the Cold War threat petered out the companies left, abandoning more than 500 mines.


Many Navajo unwittingly let their livestock drink from those pools, and their children play in mine debris piles. Some even built their homes out of uranium.


"Flint (Michigan) might feel really far away from the Navajo Nation in rural Arizona. But when you look at the demographics of it, it really isn't," he says. "This is a community that has found themselves voiceless."


A sign at the old Kerr-McGee uranium mill site in Grants, N.M., warns of radioactive material. This week, the Justice Department announced a $5 billion settlement against the mining company to pay for the cleanup of toxic sites the company left across the U.S. over a period of more than eight decades.


~Navajo Nation Farmers Feel The Weight Of Colorado Mine Spill~



The U.S. Justice Department has recently gone after some of the mining companies. Since 2008, the Environmental Protection Agency has hauled away thousands of cubic yards of mine waste and has rebuilt nearly 50 contaminated homes, says EPA Regional Administrator Jared Blumenfeld. But there's still much more to be done.


One company, Anadarko Petroleum, and its subsidiary Kerr-McGee recently paid $1 billion to the Navajo Nation for cleanup and as compensation to people living with the effects of uranium contamination.


But one-third of the mining companies have shut down or have run out of money. The federal government knew about some of the dangers decades ago, but only started the cleanup in recent years.


And the uranium issue on the Navajo Nation is part of a much bigger problem. Across the western United States there are more than 160,000 abandoned hard rock mines — thousands of which continue to pollute.


Since 2006 prices for Uranium ore has been climbing and now the mines are back and they want to take more Uranium from the land and the South West Tribes oppose these advances to pick up where the mines left off.


The Legacy of Uranium in Northern Arizona is three Superfund Clean Ups, two in Tuba City, the Rare Metals Mill and the AEC Ore Buying Station (stockpiled uranium ore from other sites for processing) and the Monument Valley Mill site, the New Mexico Tumor Registry is providing information on clusters of cancers, many premature deaths of Uranium Miners many with lung cancers and still decades of study and little action.

~What We Do In Life Will Echo For Eternity~

~An interesting journey forges interesting people, so do not let the failures, mistakes, bad choices, defeats, heart breaks, and abuses from your past defeat your self-worth and intrinsic value. Rather realize that you can become a much wiser, spiritually stronger, humble, more beautiful, and innately more valuable human being. As well as growing closer to one's Creator and learning to walk in faith, hope, and compassionate love for all of creation.


~Everyone has an interesting story to tell and the most interesting journeys may be the most difficult and unpleasant, but they have the potential to inspire, encourage, mentor, help heal, and positively touch the lives of many whom are in need of such.


~Interesting lives attract both admiration and envious hate but do not be susceptible to either. It is better to be immune to both flattery praise as well as hateful slander for both can be just as dangerous to one's soul if the seeds are permitted to take root within one's heart.


~Regardless how mundane you 'think' that your life may be and insignificant you may feel, there is a purpose for your still being here and what you do now will echo for eternity. Every life that you touch is like a pebble tossed upon still water. The ripples become tides and they travel farther than one can ever imagine. We are each blessed with talents for creating goodness and sowing good seeds into our world, if we cleanse and open our hearts to our innate gifts.


~ As human beings our gifts can often be used for the bad just as they can for the good, if we allow ourselves to become more focused upon 'self' and less focused upon our Creator and our connection to the web of all life. We may justify our self-serving actions by believing them to be rooted in 'survival' but ultimately our greatest blessings will come as a direct result of helping others rather than helping 'ourselves'. It is a universal law that we shall reap whatever we have sown and like a farmer sowing seed we shall always reap more than what we have sown. It returns to us with 'interest'.


~Do not let the manure of your past, or the negative slander of them that would be threatened by your victorious rise from the ashes, discourage you from moving on to realize and achieve your innate potential for good. Rather utilize that manure, as a farmer, for fertilizing an abundant and rich crop of healthy and good produce. You feel like your life is 'manure' and waste but the most valuable things can grow and be nourished by 'manure'. The most useful things can be recycled from discarded waste and used to create beautiful and useful things.


~When we connect with the power of our Creator we are connected to the most powerful spirit and the source of all life, all creation, and all of the universe. When we attune ourselves to walk in harmony with that most powerful spirit we can receive great healing over mind, body, and spirit, along with restoration, rejuvenation, peace, inner joy, provision, and a multitude of good in our life.


~We can become a small candle by which whose light can dissipate a great deal of darkness. We can walk without the shackles of ego and the sickness of solipsism that machinates to enslave us all.


~We can feel a personal freedom from despair, worry, hatred, envy, jealousy, contentiousness, selfishness, lust, hopelessness, and all that enslaves the emotions, heart, and mind of humans across the earth.


~The journey is yours and what you do in life will echo for eternity.
