For the last few weeks I’ve had a pain in my right elbow, slowly getting worse over time. So yesterday afternoon I saw the Good Doctor. After a brief exam he decided that I have Lateral Epicondylitis – Tennis Elbow. But I don’t play tennis.
It’s also sometimes called Golfer’s Elbow, but I don’t play golf either.
So I went to the internet to do some quick study:
Lateral epicondylitis (tennis elbow) is the name for a condition in which the bony bump at the outer side of the elbow is painful and tender. The elbow joint is made up of the bone in the upper arm (humerus) and one of the bones in the lower arm (ulna). The bony bumps at the bottom of the humerus are called epicondyles. The bump on the outer side of the elbow, to which certain forearm muscles are attached by tendons, is called the lateral epicondyle.
Tennis elbow results from overusing the muscles in your forearm that straighten and raise your hand and wrist. When these muscles are overused, the tendons are repeatedly tugged at the point of attachment (the lateral epicondyle). As a result, the tendons become inflamed. Repeated, tiny tears in the tendon tissue cause pain. Among the activities that can cause tennis elbow are tennis and other racket sports, carpentry, machine work, typing, knitting …
… and too much blogging. And it hurts like hell. Radiating, burning, like a red-hot knife dipped in acid is stabbing straight into my elbow.
So now I’m wearing one of those elbow strap thingies. And I’m taking a perscription anti-inflammatory pain medicine. If it doesn’t get better in a week or two I might have to have a cortizone shot – and those things hurt.
So no blogging for me over the weekend. I need a break. This whole-world-against-Israel-and-nobody-cares stuff has got me depressed anyway. Islam has ceased to be a faith and has become a neurosis.
The civilized world is facing a neurosis at the level of an entire civilization. Most neuroses have in common a dramatic event, generally linked to an unacceptable sexual behavior. In this case, we are talking of kids living all their lives in pure frustration, with no opportunity to experience sex, love, tenderness or even understanding from the opposite sex. The separation between men and women in Islam is absolute. So is contempt toward women, who are totally dominated by men. This leads to a situation of pure anxiety, in which normal behavior is not possible. It is no coincidence that suicide killers are mostly young men dominated subconsciously by an overwhelming libido that they not only cannot satisfy but are afraid of, as if it is the work of the devil.
These young males are bounded by oppression, lack of freedom, brain washing, organized poverty, placing God (as defined by a local mullah) in charge of their daily life, total separation between men and women, forbidding sex, giving women no power whatsoever, and placing men in charge of family honor (which is mainly connected to their women’s behavior).
Since Islam describes heaven as a place where everything on Earth will finally be allowed, and promises 72 virgins to those frustrated kids, killing others and killing themselves to reach this redemption becomes their only solution. They look forward to killing as many infidels as possible and gloriously hoping that they are killed in the process.
We are dealing with seemingly normal people with very nice manners who have their own logic, which to a certain extent can make sense since they are so convinced that what they say is true. It is like dealing with pure craziness, like interviewing people in an asylum, since what they say, is for them, the absolute truth. We read about mothers saying “Thank God, my son is dead.” Her son had became a shaheed, a martyr, which for her was a greater source of pride than if he had became an engineer, a doctor or a winner of the Nobel Prize.
Every successful terror attack is considered a victory by the radical Islamists. Everywhere Islam expands there is regional conflict – Islam never expands without death and destruction, because Islam is based (look it up in the Quran) in death and destruction. Right now, there are thousands of candidates for martyrdom lining up in training camps in Bosnia, Afghanistan and Pakistan. Inside Europe, hundreds of illegal mosques are preparing the next step of brain washing to lost young men who cannot find a satisfying identity in the civilized world.
This system of values works completely backwards from the rest of the world since their interpretation of Islam worships death much more than life. We are facing people whose only dream, only achievement goal is to fulfill what they believe to be their destiny, namely to be a Shaheed or the family of a shaheed. Not death as an end, but death as a door opener to the after life. They are seeking the reward that God has promised them. They work for God, the ultimate authority, above all human laws. They therefore experience this single delusional second of absolute power, where nothing bad can ever happen to them, since they become God’s sword.
All Muslim believers believe that, ultimately, Islam will prevail on earth, They believe this is the only true religion and there is no room, in their mind, for interpretation. The main difference between moderate Muslims and extremists is that moderate Muslims don’t think they will see the absolute victory of Islam during their lifetime, therefore they respect other beliefs. The extremists believe that the fulfillment of the Prophecy of Islam and ruling the entire world as described in the Quran, is for today. Each victory of an Islamofascist convinces the other 20 million moderate Muslims to become extremists.
How can civilized people combat this? We must stop being politically correct and stop believing that this culture is a victim of ours. Radical Islam today is nothing but a new form of Nazism – and we have to look at it in that way. What we are seeing today is is only the beginning … the beginning of World War III.
See y’all next week.

Kudos on the post, so correctly written. Until everyone sees these terrorists for who they really are, nothing will be resolved. I was another one of those “Terrorism is a symptom, not a sickness” bumper stickers and wanted to throw something at the uneducated broad. They could care less of her opinion, they just want her dead. Why can’t they understand that?
