My Reaction to the Mainstream State of Mind

My Reaction to the Mainstream State of Mind

By Dionysis Theodorou

My writing is mostly a reaction to anti-Semetism, Islamic terrorism in the world and the mainstream media's passive reaction to these two evils.

Instead of strongly condemning Islamic terror which is responsible for death and fear on most of the planet today, the media, the United Nations, the European Union, and in general, the International Community, condemns Israel for defensive operations, building in Jerusalem and struggling to survive. The world has always been anti-Semetic and would just have Israel put down its weapons and surrender and stop making a fuss about the 300 million Arabs surrounding them, that are bent on their total destruction. This does not include the additional one billion Muslims worldwide who are openly anti-Semetic.

What the world fails to realise--preferring to be in denial and constantly assuming a position of appeasement--is that these same Islamists are blowing themselves up and killing innocents all over the world, including in European cities in what, to them, is a holy war--Jihad--to destroy Israel, America and western Judeao-Christian culture, with the declared goal of establishing, instead, an Islamic State under Shariah law.

The blindness, hypocrisy and total denial frustrates me, saddens me and angers me.

I realise that many Muslims are not radical in their actions and maybe not even in their ideas. I have had Muslim friends in Cyprus and in the US who where very western in their ways and in their lifestyle. This is not what stands out though. These moderates are hardly seen or heard. Where are the Muslim rallies against terror? Where are those who speak out against Jihad?

Instead, what you see in the streets of London and other UK cities, in the streets of Washington and other US cities, are rallies praising Hamas and Hizbollah, supporting Ahmadinejad of Iran and his nuclear weapons pursuits, calling for the destruction of Israel and of the Jews and encouraging the bombing of the UK and the USA--these protests take place ON AMERICAN, BRITISH AND EUROPEAN LAND--The audacity. And the stupidity of the European and American authorities which allow these gatherings to take place; however, these values and rights--the rights of free speech and freedom of assembly--are an integral part of our democratic way of life and the cornerstone of western civilization.

I don't mean to go on and on. Many of my friends and family just wish that I would join the ranks of the indifferent and SHUT UP ALREADY.

I identify with those who want peace on earth. I have two girls and another one on the way. I love my family and I just want to live in peace. Only the Messiah can bring real peace and the end to conflict, war and human suffering. We all long for his return. Jesus said:

Blessed are the poor in spirit: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.

Blessed are they that mourn: for they shall be comforted. 

Blessed are the meek: for they shall inherit the earth.

Blessed are they which do hunger and thirst after righteousness: for they shall be filled. 

Blessed are the merciful: for they shall obtain mercy.

Blessed are the pure in heart: for they shall see God.

Blessed are the peacemakers: for they shall be called the children of God. 

Blessed are they which are persecuted for righteousness' sake: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.

Blessed are ye, when men shall revile you, and persecute you, and shall say all manner of evil against you falsely,  for my sake. 

Rejoice, and be exceeding glad: for great is your reward in heaven: for so persecuted they the prophets which were before you.
