America should make love, not war

We are in the eighth year after the attack against the United States by jihadists in four jet airliners causing the collapse of the World Trade Center towers in New York, the crash into the Pentagon and the failed attempt of terrorists in another jet after passengers overtook the terrorists and the plane crashed into the ground in Pennsylvania. A total of 2,976 were killed. Since March 2003 the United States has lost more than 4,932 troops fighting insurgents and terrorists in Iraq and Afghanistan.

I have read one report stating that up to May 15, 2009, in the conflicts in Iraq and Afghanistan, more than 750,000 of all combatants have been killed and another 1,450,000 wounded and we are not even close to seeing an end to the horrors.

This is a holy war between opposing Islam forces wishing dominance in their world. It cannot be won.

Extinction possibility
There is a demographic report circulating stating that for a population to sustain itself families must have at least a 2.1 birth rate. American, Christian and Jewish populations are decreasing and cannot, with a 1.6 child per family, according to family size demographic statistics, maintain growth and will eventually become extinct. The Muslim/Islam world will eventually be dominant throughout the world with their rate of family increases of approximately eight children per family. Already in European countries there are more mosques than churches.

Our one-time enemy terrorists' supporter Mommar Kadafy of Libya is quoted as saying, "There are signs that Allah will grant victory to Islam in Europe without swords, without guns and without conquest. We don't need terrorists, we don't need homicide bombers. The 50-plus million Muslims in Europe will turn it into a Muslim continent within a few decades."

Bring our soldiers home
I know it is almost a logistical imp ossibility and very naive for me to suggest that for the United States to survive not only the economic collapse we are presently experiencing and getting deeper in debt with our financiers and continuing to spend billions in assisting in fighting a war which is fruitless between the Islam religions it is essential that we urge our leaders and president to bring our soldiers home ASAP and let these radicals fight between themselves. Our boys need to get busy with their ladies and make babies by the dozens if we want to survive.

Today, at a level of 1.2 billion, Muslims represent about 22 percent of the world's population. They are the second largest religion in the world. Only Christianity is larger, with 33 percent of the world's inhabitants.

Islam is growing about 2.9 percent per year. This is faster than the total world population, which increases about 2.3 percent annually.

Make more babies
Canada and the United States have only a 1.6 child per family and that number will not sustain growth. The Latino rate is better with 2.11 per household. Today there are 9 million Muslims in the United States. It is estimated that within 30 years there will be more than 50 million Muslims living in America.

Let the Muslims continue to kill themselves and stop the loss of American soldiers who are still family makers. We need to get our growth of American families up to more than three per household in order to reverse the downward spiral of extinction.

If we don't and the world does not end on Dec. 21, 2012, we are in deep doo-doo.
