Rumsfeld Suggests New Agency
for 'War of Ideas'

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld said in an interview published on Friday that the United States needs to sell its message more effectively and that a new agency would help fight a "war of ideas" against international terrorism.

"We are in a war of ideas, as well as a global war on terror. And the ideas are important and they need to be marshaled, and they need to be communicated in ways that are persuasive to the listeners," Rumsfeld said in a wide-ranging interview with The Washington Times.

"The overwhelming majority of the people of all religions don't believe in terrorism. They don't believe in running around killing innocent men, women and children. And we need more people standing up and saying that in the world, not just us," Rumsfeld was quoted as saying.

For the details of a rather famous religious text that shows Rumsfeld to be lying, see my note [below] of July 31, 1997,

Vacation Bible School.

(The detail that makes Rumsfeld's statement a lie is the word "all," which is contradicted by the religion of Orthodox Judaism.  Another detail of interest is the word "Joshua" in the Vacation Bible School entry.  Recall that this was the real name of the Jew now known as Jesus, and that many of his followers may have hoped he would star in a bloody sequel to the Book of Joshua.  Hence the "thorny crown" phrase in the West Wing link above.)


Vacation Bible School

by Steven H. Cullinane, July 31, 1997


"...there is no parallel in history for the systematized horror
of the Nazi's [sic] 'Final Solution'...."

-- The Most Intriguing People of the Century, p. 73, by
Time Inc., July 1997, edited by Eric Levin

Clearly either Eric Levin or God is a damned liar. 

God's Final Solution to the Canaanite Problem

Canaanites:

 

Book of Joshua:

Jericho

 6:21

And they utterly destroyed
all that was in the city,
both man and woman, young and old.

Ai

 8:26

...utterly destroyed all the inhabitants.... 

Makkedah

10:28

...he utterly destroyed... all the souls....

Libnah

10:30

...all the souls that were therein....

Gezer

10:33

...none remaining....

Eglon

10:35

...all the souls...he utterly destroyed....

Hebron

10:37

...destroyed it utterly, and all the souls....

Debir

10:39

...utterly destroyed all the souls....

Hazor

11:11

...utterly destroying them....

misc.

11:14

...destroyed them, neither left they any....

Anakims

11:21

...Joshua destroyed them utterly
   with their cities. 

As the current popularity of Michael Drosnin's Bible Code indicates, Bible scholars should not neglect their math.  Here's a simple problem:  How many Canaanite souls, invested at a modest 1/10 of one per cent interest* for 3200 years, are worth 6,000,000 Jewish souls upon redemption?

From my entry of July 26, 2003, in memory
of Marathon Man director John Schlesinger:

Bright Star and Dark Lady

"Mexico is a solar country -- but it is also a black country, a dark country. This duality of Mexico has preoccupied me since I was a child."

-- Octavio Paz,
quoted by Homero Aridjis

Bright Star


Amen.

Dark Lady

For the meaning of the above symbols, see
Kubrick's 1x4x9 monolith in 2001,
the Halmos tombstone in Measure Theory,
and the Fritz Leiber Changewar stories.
