Islamic extremists have plan to dominate world, Air Force general says

By WES FERGUSON

Tuesday, November 06, 2007

BIG SANDY — Islamic extremists have a 100-year plan for world domination, and Americans must be prepared for the long fight, a U.S. Air Force general told East Texans on Monday.

Speaking during a Veterans Day banquet in Big Sandy, Mike McClendon said extremists want to create an economic superpower with the biggest army and strongest currency, and they want half the world's population to reside in an Islamic state.

They plan to gain control of oil reserves and bankrupt Western countries, and they plan to create safe havens throughout the world, including some in Latin America, he said.

"They're willing to go as long as it takes, and they are making progress," said McClendon, who commands the Air Force's Global Cyberspace Integration Center in Virginia.

1. I have plans to make love to a supermodel
But that don't mean it's gonna happen.

They're rolling out the scare mongers early this election cycle.

18. Here he is
Edited on Tue Nov-06-07 09:58 AM by saigon68


At least he has a smile as he prepares to "FRY" a few islamics

He is a Senior Pilot with over 10,000 hours in more than 35 types of aircraft ranging from helicopters to fighters to transports. In his civilian life, General McClendon is a Captain for a major airline, flying internationally.

Hope his airplane doesn't stray off course

39. Impressive Credentials, but
combat experiences seems to be limited guarding the skies of Florida,Mississippi,Lousiana,California and a few interior states and of course the dangerous skies of the UK. resulting in the good general receiving a firewatch ribbon with 2 stars and Combat Readiness medal whatever that might be and few other lesser known ribbons. Guess the general needs a war to round out an otherwise combat free career.

30. Military "Leadership"
I have been working with the military for almost thirty years now. And one thing I have noticed is that just because someone is a high ranking officer does not mean that they are competent leaders. It does not mean that they are overly intelligent. All it means is that they have put in the time.

This guy is a bone head just like so many others.

I don't have as much experience with the military as you, but what little I do have convinces me that when the good Dr. went to do research for The Peter Principle the military was his primary model.

42. Agreed, however...
How many people have Christians killed under the name of Jesus these last few decades? The only Christo-extremist that comes to mind is Eric Rudolph (Tim McVeigh was a white supremist and not a "god warrior").

62. not by killing --yet --but by infiltrating every level of govt
Edited on Wed Nov-07-07 05:08 PM by ima_sinnic
--they started back in the 80s, getting on school boards, and have been quietly working their way up. Now their stinking BS is part of presidential debates! I honestly do not remember attention in debates to whether candidates prayed prior to this decade--but I could be wrong--but they got Congress to call a special session, and jr. shit stain to "work" during one of his many vacations, over the Terry Schiavo matter (jr. wouldn't even end his vacation for the thousands of Katrina victims, but for one woman he did because it was a fundamentalist a-hole "christian" issue)--they have become loud, vociferous, obnoxious, and highly offensive in their judgmental, holier-than-thus hysteria over abortion, right to die, "Islamofascism" (which term I use only to characterize a belief of the christofascists, I actually consider it akin to the n-word), 10 commandments displayed in public places, prayer at public events/schools, the idea that the U.S. is "a Christian nation," creationism, book burning, etc. etc. And don't forget the brainwashing boot camps they subject their poor children to. That generation is going to grow up to be one set of obnoxious, braindead people who are on one mission: to "save" you.

It is like whack-a-mole with them. They keep popping up, and you better well damn believe that they will not rest until they have taken over the world--and they WILL resort to violence and killing.

7. So... extremists, isn't it?
So we have in one SIDE the then good extremists saying that the bad extremists have a plan;
meanwhile...
On the other SIDE the then good extremists saying that the bad extremists also have a plan.

Yes, it's good&bad in that similar order; only SIDE change.
Unfortunately they have BOTH something in common: EXTREMISM!!!

19. And they're BOTH bad. And they're BOTH thin minorities.
In short: they BOTH have MENTAl HEALTH issues.

But the most dangerous minority is the one that is currently destroying all life on this planet, 24 hours a day, seven days a week: they are poisoning the lands, the waters, the atmospheres, and they don't care about rising temperatures, as well as sea-levels rising.

Oh! But it's OK for them. Their Rapture dream is just around the corner... :crazy:

8. The "ALERT" Academy
OMG!

"The ALERT Academy is home to the Air Land Emergency Resource Team, which trains young Christian men to respond to natural disasters and other crises throughout the world."

"McClendon, who commands the Air Force's Global Cyberspace Integration Center in Virginia."...is a former teacher there.


:puke:

Does anyone seriously doubt that our armed forces have been infiltrated by crazy bastards?

28. Alert Academy Web Site
http://www.alertacademy.com/

Militaristic Religion. The pitch is that they train to respond to disasters. Obviously like Blackwater trains to respond to disaster, the man made type mostly. Training for young men only.

Military uniforms. Black outfits. Military titles. Christian soldiers marching off to create disaster, not respond to it.

Militarism: The worship of the military.

This guy believes in Islamic 100 year plans, but I'll bet he doesn't believe in global warming. If he is a nutbar Christian (as alluded to upthread), then doesn't he thing the rapture and second coming will come first?

just happen to be sittin on.

They plan to gain control of oil reserves and bankrupt Western countries.

No. They plan to trick morons like you into bombing Iran, so that when things spin out of control and Gulf oil exports are lost, our economy will collapse.

Then, enter Putin's Russia and Jintao's China playing the role of Mr. Potter.

55. Many of us have been around these right-wing gasbags our whole lives.
It seems many of them have no other outlets they enjoy beyond spinning these wild yarns to try to scare the bejesus out of their weakminded idiot family members, fellow church members, neighbors.

How many people know of the mouth-breathing clowns who couldn't wait to bellow to their fellow men/women that the "freedom marchers" in the south were copulating in the streets, and that the police were finding condom wrappers all over the streets of the southern towns through which they marched?

Sorry to say my mother's family has a relative who was a National Guardsman or a cop or something in Birmingham, and he couldn't wait to run to his elderly relatives and spew his poison stories in their ears, to appear very world-wise, and knowledgeable about changes going on in the world, scaring them to death.

Making up whoppers about the imagined "enemy" is a timeworn tradition. It always makes the teller look like a complete asshole to the people around him/her, who know it already.

60. Actually they probably do. But unless we help them a lot their chances are zero.
Help them as in having unjust policies against the Palestinians. Starting more wars which convert regular unemployed 17 years olds into terrorists, and in general making it easy for their side to turn everyone into radicals.

If we LIVE peace, freedom, justice, tolerance, the Internet, and global tv will slowly but surely win. It always has when given a chance.

But of course then we would have two radical sides, one of ours, and one of theirs, looking for a new enemy.
