| | From the schoolyard bully to the LA gangbanger, from the Third Reich to the IRA, from the Columbian Druglords to the Palestinian Authority, from Hizbollah to al Queda........ These are the faces of terrorism. | The industrial and technological inventions of the past century and a half have revolutionized the way we travel, communicate and interact. Hi-speed monorails and intercontinental air travel have reduced a trip, which 200 years ago would have taken 18 months in a wooden ocean vessel, to 18 hours in a titanium jet. A diplomatic decree, sent by messenger and steed from a distant province, 200 years ago would have taken 60 days, but can now be delivered in less than 60 seconds via a fax machine or computer network. With the dawn of the 21st Century behind us, we now have the entire world at our fingertips. September 11, 2001. Images of a gaping hole in the side of the North Tower of the World Trade Center flash across TV screens around the globe simultaneously. How could a Boeing 767 hit one of the Twin Towers on a clear blue morning? As every country in the world stands transfixed, horrified at this tragic scene, United Flight 175 slams into the South Tower, exploding into a fireball. For the first time in human history, most everyone on the planet witnessed the horror and reality of terrorism as this tragedy unfolded in real-time. The sounds and images of that day will forever be etched into the global consciousness, our human experience. This is the end of the innocence. First, let me be very clear, this website was designed expressly to expose the evil of bigotry, extremism and hatred found in Radical Islam and it's followers. This site is NOT an attack on the Muslim or Arab people as a whole. But, as with every major religion, there are factions within who will use their 'gospel' to their own ends. Throughout history man has used religion as a sword against his fellow man. I chose this subject because the extremists of Radical Islam are the most immediate and prevalent threat to our world today. The New World Order While many around the world are convinced that capitalism is The New World Order, I believe that Radical Islam is the true New World Order. Capitalism, along with it's late antithesis, communism, are merely the political, economic and social components of an ideological agenda. The end goal of Radical Islam is the worldwide rule by a Caliph (a successor of Muhammad as temporal and spiritual head of Islam) and the worldwide implementation of Sharia Law. For a better understanding of the goals of Radical Islam, please read the Islamic Jihad pages. Where possible, I have included all documentation of the original source.
