Enemy uniforms


Mr. Bannon, then the head of the hard-right website Breitbart News and now Mr. Trump’s chief strategist, called on the “church militant” to fight a global war against a “new barbarity” of “Islamic fascism” and international financial elites, with 2,500 years of Western civilization at risk.

In 1948, ABS was born into a large Irish-Injun Catholic family in the piemonte section of Vermont and if in the late 1950s or early 1960s he had suddenly begun to see strangers showing-up in or near his home town wearing skirts with swastikas stitched into them or sweaters with hammer and sickles on them and had been learnt the government had invited them to live in Vermont, he would have been outraged at such insanity and he would have understood the government was his enemy and not just the new arrivals who bore with them an alien culture and  malign intent.

If the government had tried to tell ABS that the Nazis and The Commies were simply peaceful secular states interested in promoting interesting ideas about their political economies and that they were not a threat to our way of life, ABS would have understood that his government had sided with the enemy against he, his family, his friends, and the entirety of American history and tradition. 


Now, when ABS sees women wearing a hijab or a burka, when he sees a flattering news propaganda piece of an Iman preaching in a Mosque, he understands an alien army has been invited within the gate and he understands the state and, sadly, even the USCCB, is spearheading the effort to move an alien army into America at the very same time they are lying to us about who the Mahometans are and covering-up their malign intent.

When ABS sees these foreign uniforms in and near his town he understands what the uniform signifies - incipient death and destruction - and he knows that Mahometanism is not a religion of peace and the more he hears his government and his Bishops claiming Mahometanism is a religion of peace, the more he knows he is being lied to.
