Horrible shooting at that Christian school in Wisconsin. We must do more than just focus on that 15-year-old shooter and her family.  We must also look at the unintended consequences of other things we are doing.  The open borders and countless problems caused by illegal migrants. Allowing criminals to run free.  Allowing drug addicts and the mentally ill to take over our streets and sidewalks. The massive waste and corruption at all levels of government. Our schools . law enforcement are overwhelmed.  They can't keep track of kids that are lost and turning violent. Both parents are often working more than one job to support a family. They are busy. They are overwhelmed. They are stressed.  We shouldn't be surprised that so many of our kids are often falling through the cracks. . . 

The mainstream headline news just reported a tragic "car accident”. It said that in Germany, a car just happened to drive through a crowded Christmas festival in German and mowed down dozens of people trying to enjoy the holiday. Many are hurt. Some are crippled and maimed. Some are dead.  The news did not report that was no accident.  It was premeditated murder.

It was done by a Saudi Arabian doctor named Taleb Abdulmohsen who was living in Germany.  He deliberately drove his car at full speed into a crowd of people trying to celebrate the Christmas holiday.

Why Saudi Arabia?  Saudi Arabia is the center of this cult of Islam known as the Wahabi or Salafi cult.  Most people in the West think that the Golden Age of Islam was wonderful when you had Jews, Christians, Persians, and Muslims all living peacefully in Baghdad with literature, and science, and algebra and astronomy.  However, the Wahabis and Salafis claim that this age of Islam was horrible and corruption of Islam.  It was an age of tolerance of non-believers.  To them, that was awful.

The Salafis want to go back to the "pure" Islam of Mohammad and the first three generations of his followers in Arabia 1400 years ago, what we call the Dark Ages.  They suppressed women, they did not allow music or entertainment, and they wanted constant war and killing of anyone who didn't agree with them.

For years, this was a fringe cult. But after they found oil in Saudi Arabia, this fringe cult is now the mainstream of the Islamic World.

Under this doctrine, jihad is the "pinnacle" of Islam. If you get killed while doing jihad, that is killing non-believers, you are instantly forgiven for all sins, and you get to spend eternity in Paradise with your 72 virgins.

This is a very dangerous doctrine.  Somebody could be perfectly normal and friendly.  A family can be completely normal and just like any other Americans.  However, if their kid gets into this cult, and has a problem in life, watch out.  Maybe they fail in school, or sports. Or they fail in business or in their job. If they sin. If they get dumped by their girlfriend.  If anything goes wrong in their life, or if they feel guilty.

If someone like this is Jewish, they would go to Chabad or the Lubavitchers and start doing Mitzvahs and study Torah. If they were Catholic, they would go into the Priesthood. If they were Protestant, they would become a born-again Christian.  If they were Hindu or Buddhist they would chant or meditate.  That is how anybody else would find redemption and turn his life around.  But if you are a Wahabi or Salafi Muslim, you redeem your failed life by going out and murdering non-believers.  These people are walking time bombs. They can explode at any moment.

We saw that in Atlantic City a few years ago with Zulfi Hoxha. He grew up in Margate. Graduated Atlantic City High School in 2011.  His parents owned a well-known Pizza Restaurant on Washington Avenue in Margate. He had a tough situation in life.  And then in 2015, four years after graduation from high school, he shows up in Syria with the Islamic State or ISIS.  He makes these horrible videos of him cutting the heads off of helpless...
