That makes as much sense as the Palestinians celebrating the Crusades.
My God... what is HAPPENING to us?

VMI Celebrates Muslim Invasion, Brutal 781-year Occupation of Spain
Stonewall Jackson is rolling over in his grave.
Next month his beloved Virginia Military Institute will be convening a celebration commemorating the 1300th anniversary of the invasion and occupation of Spain under the Muslim warlord Tariq ibn Ziyad in 711 A.D. The March 23-25 celebration entitled “711-2011: East Meets West” and organized by VMI’s Center for Leadership and Ethics, is scheduled to feature standard Muslim apologists Reza Aslan and Akbar Ahmed. VMI Superintendent Gen. J.H. Binford Peay has even filmed an invitation to the celebration.
No word if VMI’s World War II commemoration will be entitled “Germany meets Poland, Czechoslovakia, Austria, Belgium, France, Norway, The Netherlands and Russia”.
Event organizers describe the event as follows:
More:I've known and served with officers from VMI. They were exceptional troops.We celebrate the 1300th anniversary of Tariq ibn Ziyad’s crossing of the Straits of Gibraltar, setting into motion the fusion between two worlds. The agenda will tell the vital story of the achievements when Muslims, Christians, and Jews thrived side by side in Western Europe, building a society that lit the Dark Ages. Experts will discuss how to transform education, promote tolerance, political reform, and advance human development so that we can emulate the spirit and triumphs of the early years.
Those who've Gone Before weep for them. This warping and twisting of history is despicable... and there's no excuse for it.
Unbelievable.

To take from quotes by Cass Sunstein and Michele Obama, you have to change history in order to bring fundamental change to America. I've been asking that same question for a long time...what IS happening to us? It seems there is a segment of our population that just doesn't think anymore. They don't know what America is. Group think has taken over and it is such an unfortunate thing to see. Muslims, Christians and Jews working side by side....really? REALLY??? 1300 years ago was such a magic time in global history.
ReplyDeleteWhen Tariq landed, he burned his ships so his men couldn't leave and made a speech...this is a portion of that speech: "Remember that if you suffer a few moments in patience, you will afterward enjoy supreme delight. Do not imagine that your fate can be separated from mine, and rest assured that if you fall, I shall perish with you, or avenge you. You have heard that in this country there are a large number of ravishingly beautiful Greek maidens, their graceful forms are draped in sumptuous gowns on which gleam pearls, coral, and purest gold, and they live in the palaces of royal kings. The Commander of True Believers, Alwalid, son of Abdalmelik, has chosen you for this attack from among all his Arab warriors; and he promises that you shall become his comrades and shall hold the rank of kings in this country. Such is his confidence in your intrepidity. The one fruit which he desires to obtain from your bravery is that the word of God shall be exalted in this country, and that the true religion shall be established here. The spoils will belong to yourselves."
Take the women, establish Islam and you shall rule the world.....hmmmmm, what's wrong with that picture? Definitely something to celebrate VMI...
