...Joe, in all sincerity, do you think that Berg's beheading was real? as
opposed to a faked thing rigged to swell support in the face of the Abu
Graib prison fiasco? do you truly think that it was some iraqi terrorists
that cut the head off a living man?

This sort of thing seems to go both ways...
A Little Reality Is A Good Thing

In San Diego, a couple of teachers were suspended for showing the pictures
of American Nick Berg being killed by his Muslim captors in Iraq. Oh, the
outrage -- that our delicate high schoolers would be subjected to reality.
Far from suspending these teachers, we should give them medals (maybe the
ones John Kerry threw away). They have done their students a big favor. They
have introduced these soon-to-be-adults to the notion that it is a dangerous
world out there.
Kids from this generation are hooked on video games that are so vile, so
violent, that military experts worry that young people are deadened to the
real effect of killing. With the restart button all the killing in a video
game can be undone. Those same figures mowed down by virtual AK 47's come
back to life.
Not true in real life. Nick Berg, although he pleaded for his life, was
dead, dead, dead. His captors, like the murderers of John the Baptist, had
his decapitated head to prove it.
One of the students who heard the audio and saw still pictures, which didn't
show the worst of it, said he had no idea such things like this went on in
the real world. It is time he learned.
For decades now in many of our school systems, students have been shielded
from reality, while a false utopian society was pushed in social studies
classes, which feature all of the liberal constructs. Ah yes, the wonderful
UN guiding us to enlightened world government where, to paraphrase a
just-arrested drunk, "We can all just get along."
The notion that there is a worldwide effort to eradicate Christians and Jews
is utter nonsense, concocted by the same feverish minds who dreamed up the
worldwide Communist conspiracy. Where are all those documents from Russia
that detail the conspiracy? We don't want to deal with ancient irrelevant
history.
Guns are to be hated because guns, not people, kill. War is caused by the
United States because we steal the world's resources. War can be avoided
because the UN is ready, willing and able to bring peace forever more.
There is no need to worry. There is no effort to kill Americans for who we
are. Right. Still, just in case we might be tempted to demonstrate our
"learned male aggressiveness" and want to defend ourselves, guns should be
confiscated -- especially in this country, of course. No need to confiscate
them elsewhere.
After all, if we would just ratify the Kyoto treaty and scrap our capitalist
free enterprise system, we would no longer be stealing the world's resources
so no one would want to kill us any more.
Besides, it doesn't matter. We are all going to die from global warming
anyway. Heard of Omaha Beach? Not that place of fame during World War II.
No, this is in Omaha, Nebraska where the oceans will at last surround a
narrow strip of land. Maybe, just maybe, we could save ourselves if we just
adopted Socialism and turned over all governance to those beloved
peace-oriented diplomats at the UN.
Peace is so comforting. Just ask those in a nearby cemetery. Freedom is so
messy...so unpredictable. You can't always plan the outcome. Besides there
are risks involved with freedom and risks are unacceptable in a utopian
society. The one value we maintain is equality. Not equality of opportunity,
but equality of result. In a Socialist world, risks are unnecessary because
without freedom there is no need for such outmoded thinking.
If you doubt that such a utopian society can exist, then you need only look
to Cuba, a mere 90 miles from our shores where in our textbooks the Cuban
healthcare system is touted as a model for the world. This is the nonsense
our youth are being fed.
They are not told that in radical Muslim textbooks, Christians and Jews are
called rats and vermin. What do you do with rats and vermin? You set traps
for them and then you eradicate them. They are not instructed that there are
millions who want to kill us for who we are and what we represent.
With the exception of the invasion of Iraq, the United States has never
begun a war. Even there, an average of 20 times per day the Iraqi government
was attempting to attack U.S. and British planes over parts of the country
we agreed to protect.
We do, however, respond to the attacks of others. The removal of the Taliban
in Afghanistan was a response to destruction of the World Trade Center
buildings by terrorists on 9/11. When the Japanese attacked Pearl Harbor,
Hawaii, the United States formally entered World War II.
The abject failure of the UN is never discussed in Social Studies. The
failure of Socialism and Communism in Russia and the former Soviet bloc
nations is not taught. If it is mentioned at all, the suggestion is quite
strong that they just didn't do it right.
The real world rarely enters the classroom. The utopian nonsense, which has
filled the heads of young people for decades, now leads to a complete
misunderstanding of who and what really works.
The audio and pictures of Nick Berg were from the real world. Did they shock
and sicken some of the students? It is well if they did. It is time that
they learn that there is no restart button. There are people who want to
kill us and against whom we should defend ourselves.
It is time young people learn that the reason our Founding Fathers included
the Second Amendment to the Constitution as part of the Bill of Rights was
precisely to insure that a relatively free people who wish to defend
themselves may do so.
Yes, and they ought to understand that capitalism, especially capitalism as
one side of the coin and free enterprise as the other side of the coin,
works. In fact, it is really the only system that works. Nick Berg was
certainly killed because he was an American. His death probably was insured
when his captors learned that he was Jewish.
It is a mean, nasty, dreadful world out there, but one which we have managed
to keep at bay, not by the UN, but by our own Constitutional government.
Those teachers who dared acquaint their sheltered and misled underlings
about a little part of the real world deserve a promotion and thanks from
all of us. If they lose their jobs over this it will demonstrate just how
far cultural Marxism (i.e. political correctness) has infiltrated this once
great country.
