An Iraq War Marine Corps veteran sent an unmistakable message this week, via social media, to the “cowardly” Islamic State terrorists in the Middle East:
“I am only one, but I am one. I can't do everything, but I can do something. The something I ought to do, I can do, and by the grace of God, I will.” ~Everett Hale

“You attack us and there will be no mercy. We will bring the righteous hand of God down upon you and crush you.” --Nick Powers
The powerful post has gone viral and was reportedly written by Nick Powers, identified as a Marine vet who served in Iraq, by American Live Wire, in response to the beheading of American journalist James Foley.

“To all you ignorant Islamic extremist f**ks.
As I sit here constantly hearing and watching you execute innocent men, women, and children in the Middle East, I chuckle. Why do I chuckle you may ask? Well let me explain something to you cowardice fools who think you are so tough behind all your propaganda videos.
You are scaring a population that doesn’t know how to fight; you’re bullying the weak. You say Islam is the religion of peace, but since when does terrorizing the innocent and beheading men, women, and children constitute peace? WTF?
But keep in mind, what did Saddam’s troops do when we came rolling into town? They surrendered, twice… So all your empty threats of coming to America and raising your flag over the White House amuse me more than any of you sick, sadistic bastards could ever imagine or comprehend.
In 2012, there were about 21.2 million veterans in the United States. Do you understand what that means? Let me break it down for you.
That means there are literally millions of disgruntled, dysfunctional, pissed off veterans who have been dealing with years of abuse from their government stabbing them in the backs and having to watch their friends die because you Islamic extremist idiots can’t seem to act like normal human beings and stop terrorism and the violence.
It’s one thing to take over an Islamic state, but if my memory serves me correctly, I’m pretty sure we plowed through Fallujah in 4 days. Better yet, it took us about month to control your entire country.
At this point, with 13+ years of war under our belts, how long do you think it would take us to do it all over again? I’ll let you draw your own conclusions on that one.
Do you really think you stand a chance on US soil? Do you really think it would be smart to poke that bear? Remember, never bite the hand that feeds you. Remember we are armed to the teeth in the US and I can promise you this… the Geneva Conventions will not apply to you. You attack us and there will be no mercy.
We will bring the righteous hand of God down upon you and crush you. The ball is in your court now ISIS. We are more than ready to arrange a so called “meeting” with your 72 virgins and send you to your “prophet” Mohamed.”

UPDATE: "To all who read this and assume this is against all Muslims, I am sorry you are too blind to read, this isn’t against Muslims in general. If you feel otherwise I suggest you look at yourself in the mirror and ask yourself one question, am I an extremist?
You say Islam is the religion of peace, since when does terrorizing the innocent (beheading women and children, wtf?) mean peace? This is directed at all extremist, if this offends/makes you angry or think I am racist you are are probably an extremist…" -- Nick Powers

Speaking of 21.2 million vets, see "Homeland Militia Survey: by James Hathorn" posted here on August 24, 2014 .
ReplyDeleteDavid Webb, of the Patriot channel on SiriusXM, told me on his program last week, "Americans will not come together until there is something to act on." That was in his response to my
question and survey regarding the Constitutional Second Amendment militia. I would add to what he said, "We are always ready."
The militia consists of all Americans "in good standing", among them being a very experienced military force of veterans who will not tolerate an insurrection by this sick mob of ideological
perverts who think they can waltz in here and do what they have done in Iraq. Let our armed forces take care of business overseas and let the veterans lead the protection in the
homeland.
My brothers from Vietnam are, as am I, old but we have not forgotten skills nor are we weak of spirit. Some of us are a little crazy. But all of us are Americans. We have families and
grandchildren. We have more to protect than we did back then and less to lose. The young troops coming back from the middle east know the new technology and fully understand these
perverted and sadistic bastards.
I would hope the current administration comes around and takes the war overseas. I know we are ready for whatever comes here at home. Just as our government seems not to
understand the ideology of this jihad, the jihad has no idea what they will be facing if they come here.
Remember the Japanese would not attack our country because there was a gun behind every tree. That was in the 1940's. We are much better armed and in larger numbers. Any terrorists better rethink the plan to attack America. We can shoot straighter than you, also. You come, you die. Of course, you have the choice of accepting Jesus, the Son of the only true God, who died on the cross for your sins. All you have to do is get on your knees and ask for forgiveness for your sins. Then stop doing them and get yourselves baptized.
ReplyDeleteREMBER THE LARGEST ARM IN THE WORLD IS THE
ReplyDeleteAMERICAN HUNTERS!,,
This is what you get when you allow the security of the Republic to be run by a bunch of amateurs. The Oreo needs to step down, now. Will he? In a word, no. We cannot wait until 2016 rolls around. He showed more "outrage" at Israel over its dissing of Kerry and his so-called "Peace Plan", they he has about Hamas, Putin, the Red Chinese, and ISIS. He doesn't have a plan; a strategy. He has shown all of us that he doesn't know what in hell he's doing. There's no one in the wheelhouse. And unless America wakes up, we're all on the Titanic, and the iceberg is dead ahead. The Islamic State (ISIS) is throwback to the time of Attila the Hun, and doesn't belong in the 21st century. Like a nest of black widows, the only viable option, the only option that will work, is to exterminate them; hunt them down, every last sonofabitchin' one of them; let none survive. The enemy is at the gates.
ReplyDeletePlease see the survey re: Mosin Guy above. Pass it around. We need to get this going. If you want to protect the homeland there is something you can do. Wake the hell up!
ReplyDeleteMy attitude matches yours, Nick, and that of Mosin Guy.
ReplyDeleteMy fears are that the present admin is not equal to our Patriotism, our sense of fairness. I disagree with the Muslim 'religion' as one of peace. I do not consider it a religion, rather a dictated political way of life, with Shaira law and the dictates of the Koran.
The Middle East, the Arab world, which is mostly Muslim, has always been involved in a conflict. When they no longer have a common foreign foe, some Infidel country to fight with, they will fight with one another. When that plays out the religious factions within a country will fight with one another. The Shiites and the Sunnis have fought with one another since recorded history.
Will some one tell me how you get a religion of peace out of that mess?
Muslims are quite content when at war with some one, even their own people. No peace loving people there. Add to that the 'religious' notion of jihad. What do you come up with. A piece of camel dung who thinks he can reach the promised land by converting or killing all of us Infidels; he then receives his 40 virgin reward.
A 'religion' with earthly standards as reward. I thought Heaven was the reward.
Sadly, I believe Obama is Muslim. I am, and have been convinced, he has done all he can to weaken this country.
Who, but a Muslim, would swap 5 hardcore terrorists for a traitor, and knew he was wrong by not disclosing what he was doing?
Who, other than Muslims and their sympathizers, would ever condemn Israel and defend a terrorist organization like HAMAS?
Who would want to weaken the US Army to the strength level of 20% more soldiers than the number we had deployed in Vietnam only?
Who would have an executive order not allowing Federal employees to have "Merry Christmas" and the removal of Christ from not only Holidays, but from court rooms, buildings, wanted to stop prayer at sports events.
Do I really need to continue? The Marine sgt in prison in Mexico. It is sickening.
And we never have seen a valid birth certificate. His refusal to salute for years. Now his salute is so half-assed it sucks. The Muslim-in-Chief.
Does anybody still think he represents America? Or does anyone want him as their representative?
Sorry Nick, but I have to disagree with your comment "UPDATE: "To all who read this and assume this is against all Muslims, I am sorry you are too blind to read, this isn’t against Muslims in general. If you feel otherwise I suggest you look at yourself in the mirror and ask yourself one question, am I an extremist? " Muslims are those people who follow Islam. I am not blind, nor am I deaf however I do not know if I am an extremist..I will leave that for others to determine.
ReplyDeleteAn attack by ISIS on the USA will not see hordes of turban topped, bearded combatants( all carrying weapons provided by the US) flooding across the pond to storm the beaches....the spread of ISIS will follow the path already being followed in the UK, Europe and in Australia.
First will come the mosques (funded by Saudi Arabia and Qatar), followed by halal certification, changes to the US culture to accommodate Islam under the guis of political correctness and 'freedom of religion'
Then will come the 'religious police' -sharia law no-go areas
Radicalisation of muslim youths....
Suicide/martydom acts.
I'm sure you have been following events throughout the Middle East, Europe and Australia...THAT is the ISIS programme
So how do you stop it?
Ideology has NEVER been defeated through military means. Nazism is still alive and well (Right sector in the Ukraine); Communism is still alive and well in Vietnam, China, Cuba and other countries
The catholic religion went through a similar process as Islam is today- the inquisition, conversion by fire, the witch hunts, processes initiated by those who took a beautiful story outlined in the various bibles/gospels and applied those stories as the unyielding word of god. This is what the Islamists are doing today- applying the Koran as the direct, unyielding word of god.
Islamists have to be educated that the Koran was compiled by a 'prophet' so far removed from the teachings of earlier prophets (remember Mahomet prayed to the same God of Abraham as did the prophet Jesus and others) that he is in fact a 'false' prophet- maybe even the devil's advocate as Rushdie infers in his publication -'Satanic Verses"
Very shortly the United Nations are going to turn on organized religion, all of them. The harlots will go! This will be the great tribulation as spoken of. Then the vindication of JEHOVAHS great name, the one Abraham knew of. Go ahead and argue that point in the Real Holy writings!
ReplyDeleteA witness!
