America has an honored tradition, springing from the spirit of 1776, of respecting the sovereign rights of othen nation-states. In the nineteenth century, we championed sovereignty in the Western Hemisphere with the Monroe Doctrine of 1823. Our entry into Workd Wars I and II, the Korean War, the Vietnam War, and the Gulf War was based upon this principle. There certainly have been schemers in our government who, from time to time, have, without question, embroiled us in imperialistic ventures. When doing so, they have, however, operated in opposition to our stated creed and the will and philosophy of our people. They were, and remain, traitors to American ideals and interests.

In contrast, Islamists, as a cornerstone of their stated faith, believe in world conquest. Islamists view the portion of the world that has not submitted to their rule as the Dar es Harb, or the world of war. They are commanded by their faith to conduct a Jihad, or holy war, against the non-Islamic world until they achieve Dar es Salaam, or a world of peace. This is the term they use to describe a utopian world under the Islamic scimitar.

The Revolutionary Socialists also, as an article of faith, believe in world conquest. They view the portion of the world that has not submitted to them as "reactionary" and "oppressive." They feel commanded by "science" to engage in a "struggle" to achieve what they refer to as a progressive world. In the name of this elusive progress, they have murdered, according to the Black Book of Communism, over 100 million people during the twentieth century.

Islamic doctrine is filled with references to the Jihad. An example of waging the Jihad against non-Muslims was the September 11, 2001, terrorist attacks on the Pentagon and on the Twin Towers in New York. Such an audacious frontal assault on the Dar es Harb, they believe, will de-stabilize the nation they call the "great Satan." They consider killing "infidels" to be humane and even a sacred act in the performance of Jihad, which is why they are prone to shout "Allah Akbar," as they grab the controls of an airplane.

Revolutionary Socialist doctrine is also filled with justifications for violence and war as a means of achieving political ends. The color red, which is the international Socialist color, stands for the human blood that they will shed in order to induce the "birth pangs" of the new Socialist reality. To achieve their goals, they "bore from within" by infiltrating and subverting nation-states. They divide and conquer and forment instability and violence. Upon seizing power, they routinely exterminate their opposition. Since they refuse to recognize the existence of truth or morality, only "Socialist truth," they consider such extermination to be justified.

The great American experiment is based on the question of whether or not mankind is capable of exercising his God-given potential for self-rule. The Islamist and Revolutionary Socialist reject this as even a possibility. America is the last great hope for mankind, as peoples of the world, whether stated or implied, covet our freedom and seek to emulate it. The biggest mistake we could make in these dangerous times is to imbibe Islamist or Revolutionary Socialist propaganda that seeks to tear us down in the eyes of the world and tear at the very fabric of our domestic freedom with their acts acts of war, both overt and covert. Mankind is depending on our ability and willingness to stand up and be ourselves.
