The President’s speech on September 6, 2006, was an excellent example of “false analogy.” In fact, I’m using it in my argument classes. If any entity has made al Qaeda strong, it is the United State Government under this president (although an argument could be made that a continuing policy by Capitalist countries in Europe and most of the Globalist “democracies” could fit this category nicely). Simply applying common sense would explain why the president’s comparisons are incorrect. Communism and Fascism are doctrines that were used by totalitarian leaders (Lenin, Stalin, Mussolini, Mao) to establish personal dictatorships. If you read their intellectual or theoretical constructs (especially Marx and Engels in the Communist Manifesto), you’ll see how much these dictators differed from their teachings (gee, almost as much as King George Bush II differs from our Democratic constitution!). Terrorist groups like al Qaeda, even though they like to talk about world domination amongst themselves, will never become nationalist entities the way the Nazis and Communists were able to do under Hitler, Lenin and Stalin. In fact, saying al Qaeda will be able to overthrow countries is more like saying the Kamikazi Movement of World War II Japan could have taken over Japan and the rest of the world.

            These “Islamofascists,” as our president likes to term them, are hated in the Muslim world (Saddam was especially repulsed by them in Iraq, as they are antithetical to any true dictator’s goals of self-aggrandizement). They use methods that are, in essence, anti-nationalist, anti-military and anti-human (suicide bombers, for god sakes!). They do not want any nation to exist! There can be no dictator who can successfully incorporate al Qaeda “philosophy” in order to take over a country (even a Muslim one). These groups will only grow if/when super-power countries react to them by invading other countries in the name of “imposing freedom or a Western-style constitutional form of government where no heritage of revolution exists.” Gosh, that seems to be the goal of this present administration, does it not? And, as long as he keeps invading countries (especially in the Muslim world), one might assume these terrorists groups will be able to recruit more suicide zealots and other fanatics. But to say these zealots will become nationalist dictators like Hitler, Stalin or even Mussolini, is quite preposterous! al Qaeda’s entire philosophy is based on having “no real leader” (read the step-by-step methods of establishing a terrorist cell network, for example!). Terrorist cells are purposely established so that they do not know who is giving the orders from on high. There is no adhesive military (required for any group who aspires to a nationalist domination), and by their own methods and actions establish them forever as merely little yapping killers and insane brain-washing psychopaths (which they are). However, in the meantime, our dear president just might launch us into a nuclear holocaust with real nations that have nothing to do with these islamo freaks! Oh, I forgot. Then our president’s Christian Armageddon will be fulfilled! Talk about hidden agendas!
