Are the Jews responsible for the Credit Crisis

What was more Catastrophic to the world... 911, or the Credit Crisis of 2008...?

Watching the news screens around the world, I noticed the amount of airtime given to the American Mid Term elections, and as always, the world in general show a keen interest in the shannegans of the American elections. I raised this question, because it would appear, at least to the outsider, that the two issues this elections is fought on are the state of the economy, and the mosque in Manhatten... the mosque in Manhatten issue is the residue of the traumatic 911 episode, and the state of the economy can largely be tied to the credit crises that struck the world in general and the USA in particular.

I'm not even sure if we can call it the Credit Crisis of 2008, because the world economy is still reeling from the after effects of this self inflicted economic equivalent of a tsunami.

Is this MSNBC cartoon a fair reflection on the causes of the credit crisis...?

In my mind, there is no doubt, that the economic crisis should take centre stage in this election, and consequently, if I have to answer the question raised above, then certainly the issue of 911 should be relegated in terms of importance to the issue of the credit crisis.

Assuming we dont agree with this view, and hold them equally destructive and therefore, equally worthy of election fodder... which, it would appear, watching the news screens, is what many on the Republic Party side (or to be more accurate, the Tea Party movement) wants to do.

Consequently, they are trying to link the issue of the Mosque in Manhatten to the 911 issue by claiming it was Muslims who caused 911, and therefore we don't trust Muslims, and dont want their mosque in our midst...

If this logic seems appropriate, fair, and reasonable, then certainly the same logic should be applied to those who caused the biggest economic trauma to the people of the USA? There seems to be a national consensus that Wall Street should bear the brunt of the blame for the issues that caused the economic meltdown... but who is Wall Street...? Wall Street Firms, Wall Street CEO's, Wall Street Analysts, Wall Street Bankers, Wall Street Investment Advisory employers, Wall Street Lawyers... are pre-dominantly people from the Jewish Faith...! think Bernie Madoff, Bear Sterns, Lehman Brothers, Merryl Lynch, AIG.. and the list go on and on... Even the supposed good guys who were suppose to help America out of the crisis, and spent trillions in the process, Geithner, Bernanke... they certainly weren't Muslims!

No prizes for guessing how many Jews in this picture of Wall Street CEO's.

The Burning of the Quran...

Islam is not the Enemy

So an obscure preacher somewhere in the outback of America came up with this smart plan to burn the Quran... and the whole world is in uproar... and what exactly would this have to do with the Expat...?

Before I get on the soapbox... I need to ask... why in the world would a God-Conscious Preacher want to be so intolerant and offend so many people, creating so many more enemies for America...? Does the world not have enough hatred, intolerance, and fear towards different people...?

What in the world is this preacher hoping to achieve...?

A Friendly Warning...

Does he not understand the Christian scripture, thou shall reap what thou has sowed...?

Since the introduction of the first commercial flight, and a few years later, the advent of the Internet, the world has changed irrevocably... I am sure, that soon the world will realise the idea of nation states is outdated, and that borders are artificial lines drawn by politicians. In fact, the concept of nations are now so diluted, you get more Black English citizens than you get Caucasian (read White) ones!

I know I am making a roundabout point, but I started off trying to make you understand what the relevance of the burning of the most sacred scripture would have to do with us Expats... first, it will do the American expats no favours here in the Gulf.. in fact, such an act could just make it more untenable for locals to want to employ Americans...

Then, the second point, is that we can no longer hide behind the convenient excuse that it is an American... we need to accept that it is a citizen of the world... we should react as if it is one of us setting off on this trip that is as preposterous as it is outrageous... that even his own countrymen and women have called it stupid, irresponsible, ill conceived and witless...!

The upside is, the Quran has endured unchanged over more than 1400 years. Not even the brutality of the Crusades could dent the wholeness of the scripture... Muslims should understand that their God has declared himself The Protector of this scripture and it will be preserved for all eternity... so a hillbilly somewhere on the outskirts of American civilisation would certainly pose no threat to the endurance of the holy scripture.

 

What is surprising though is that America has no laws against hate speech...!!! you cant make a joke on an aeroplane about a bomb, but you can offend a quarter of the world's population and it be considered free speech...?

For American Expats all over the world, it would be in their own interest to vocalise their objections against such stupidity, so that their host communities can appreciate that it is small lunatic fringe that think this o be a smart plan... ad they should condemn the action for what it is... insensitive, attention seeking, unchristian, and unnecessary.
