We never learn.
I know, you've heard it before. And yet, here we are...again.
As a history lover, I cannot help but notice the trends, cycles, behaviors, and consequences that humanity has repeated since leaving Eden. Oddly enough, in spite of the diversity of this planet, there are some things that are the same no matter where, when, or to whom they happen. Those are the things of eternal consequence, the things that truly matter when all the fluff and distraction of life is tossed aside.
They are what happens when good people choose evil.
Yea, and we also see the great wickedness one very wicked man can cause to take place among the children of men.--Book of Mormon, Alma 46:9
It has never ceased to amaze me that no matter which tribe of Israel you study--the Bible is about the tribe of Judah and the Book of Mormon is about some of the descendants of Judah's little brother Joseph, who left Jerusalem in about 600 BC and traveled by ship to the promised land of America--there is the same cycle. The people start out righteous, constantly seeking to do good. As a result, God blesses them with great gifts of knowledge, technology, wealth, abundance, peace and wisdom.
But then a curious thing happens, a thing that inevitably leads to THE ONE INEXORABLE TRUTH, a truth that Father knows but that we have to learn over and over again, and usually the hard way. Please follow me through the progression, as there are several steps that lead to the final, full understanding of this eternal truth.
***NOTE***(For those of you new to WARCHICK writings, the above is why I refer to America and Israel as the "Joes" and the "Jews." Nearly all archaeologists and historians agree that the peoples who wound up in England, Scotland, Ireland, and parts of Western Europe descend from the tribes of Ephraim and Manasseh, the two sons of Joseph; that's not even counting the group mentioned above who were already in America when Europe landed, those who came to be known as the American Indians. That means that every Founding Father was of the House of Israel through the tribe of Joseph, thus fulfilling Isaiah's prophecy about the Stick of Judah and the Stick of Joseph, and Daniel's talk of the "Big branch" and the "Little Branch" of the same tree: Israel. This also indicates that the "New Jerusalem" and "New Zion" spoken of over and over again in the scriptures is in America, which makes perfect sense when you understand that nothing can stop God's plan, not even blood-thirsty Muslims stealing Jerusalem. ("16 The LORD also shall roar out of Zion, and utter his voice from Jerusalem; and the heavens and the earth shall shake: but the LORD will be the hope of his people, and the strength of the children of Israel. 17 So shall ye know that I am the LORD your God dwelling in Zion, my holy mountain: then shall Jerusalem be holy, and there shall no strangers pass through her any more." Old Testament | Joel 3:16-17. Zion roars and Jerusalem utters? AFTER Zion shall Jerusalem be holy and Israel restored to the House of Israel by Zion, no less? Sounds like America and Israel in the past 100 years to me! America certainly roars, and I am always in awe of the way Israel quietly goes about being the most remarkable nation on earth.)Those of you who read me know that I am fond of saying, "We must stick together, the Jews and the Joes, in the war against the great evil of Islammunism." Whether you like it or not, America, you are the prophesied Joes. What, you thought it was just a coincidence that the whole world refers to our warriors as "Joes?" Not only from His mouth shall we know the truth, but from the mouths of millions shall it be eternally confirmed. And for those of you in full "Why I never!" gasping, I have one question: Do you honestly believe that God would command only ONE of the tribes of Israel to write their history? I swear to you this day that He commanded ALL 12 tribes to write their histories, and the day will come that we discover the Sticks of Reuben, Simeon, Dan, Gad, Levi, etc.)
Rather than these gifts inspiring man to be even more righteous, they cause him to begin to believe in his own knowledge, power, wisdom, and wealth. The more he gains, the more he credits himself. He begins to dismiss God, leaning instead unto his own understanding, and engaging in the only practice that divided Heaven in the pre-existence: the evil tongue.
Through the gift of this same free will that he will come to viciously suppress in others, this man will start planting little seeds of discontent among the righteous, stirring up emotions in order to disarm the logic center of the brain, as he knows all too well that logic and truth are NOT on his side. He will take little wounds and pick at them until they are red, swollen, and infected. Even when he gets his way, it will not be enough. He will use his free will to force others to do things his way over and over again and again, to greater and greater extremes of evil and insanity, focusing on tiny, imaginary, or long-ago offenses in order to try to justify unjustifiable behavior. (Think of the femmies, hippies, and minorities of the past 40 years. Even when the majority have agreed that there were wrongs in need of righting--and acted upon them--it was not enough. What generally starts as a just cause that most can see--equality--inevitably morphs into wretched elitism--affirmative action.)
By this point he will be too mentally stunted to even recognize that by destroying the free will of the righteous, he is cannibalizing his own, for one of the foundations of THE ONE INEXORABLE TRUTH is this: what starts with one group never ends with that group. He who seeks to deprive the righteous of free will for his own selfish gains shall inevitably be enslaved by those very same mandates.
Thus we see that a group that once dwelt in righteousness and peace begins to chip away at its own foundation. It is Satan's ultimate, gleeful, low-down double-cross: convince one man to obliterate the free will of another man, then enslave and cannibalize the man who aided and abetted you.
Two destructions for the price of one. And it all begins with one free man, one good man, who chooses to become one wicked man.
At this point, the remaining righteous--still the majority--will go to their Father and ask for direction in dealing with the growing group that is beginning to murmur and to harass those who believe in God and in His precept of "live and let live."
Reading through the scriptures, I find several steps that occur when dealing with the wicked who cannot and will not live and let live. The first step is that of limitation.
God will tell his people that these wicked children have the right to choose to do the wrong thing, and that none of His children has the right to force them to do anything, EVEN the right thing, for force was the plan put forth by Lucifer and rejected by all who dwell in this mortal realm. Instead His command would be for the righteous to limit their interaction with the wicked; not because the righteous couldn't handle it, but because the wicked's intentions and dealings with the righteous could not be trusted.(Hmmm...sounds a lot like those nations who have NEVER kept a single peace treaty, cease fire, truce, etc., while America and Israel have faithfully stood by theirs.) So the righteous go back among those who were once their friends, watching carefully and praying as much for their fallen brethren as they do for themselves.
And it came to pass...
But it didn't take long--in any of the scriptures--for this first step to no longer be enough. The harassment of the righteous by the wicked would escalate as more were easily led to the side of fools, and the field begins to tilt to the other side. What started as tauntings become deliberate cruelty, attacks, lies, theft, defrauding and subjugation. These junior high antics are the only weapons the wicked have, for with each step they take away from the light and toward the darkness their levels of maturity and intelligence actually drop, until they have regressed to perpetual adolescence, delighting in cruelty, name-calling, forcing, and fighting.
And the righteous return to Father for help.
The next step the scriptures often repeat in this constant and vicious cycle is the "cut off" stage. This is the stage where things have become bad enough to warrant cutting all ties and dealings with the wicked but not yet a mortal danger. The righteous cut all business, merchant, political, association, and minglings with those who seek their destruction. They keep to themselves, buying and trading only with those who will allow them to do so in peace and doing nothing against an enemy who is now thirsting for their blood.
By this point in scripture, most of us can see what's coming, and if you're like me, you're always puzzled as to what bug crawled up the wicked's butts. The righteous are doing nothing to hurt them, interfere with their freedoms, provoke them, or stop their choice to be complete and utter assholes. They are simply existing, living, loving, defending and unlike the wicked, they are prospering.
For the wicked--since time began--existing IS the offense. Prospering just aggravates it. When you choose evil, it would seem, the ability to put two and two together hitches a ride with your rapidly exiting conscience. You are unable--and unwilling--to connect the actions of the righteous with their prosperous outcome, and seethe with jealousy and hatred for what the good have and the wicked want.
So now it's back to Father for help. The attacks are growing violent, constant, and too often life-threatening. Freedoms, possessions, and rights are being stripped with ravenous frequency from the righteous, every offense greatly amplified if it is committed by one of the righteous, but covered up, ignored, justified, or rapidly glossed over if the offender is one of the wicked, (often hidden under code words like "Oppressed minorities, apartheid, racism, sexism, or any cowardly words they can invent in order to call good evil or evil good")and all of this in spite of protest, reason, and even the law. At this point--throughout all history, both scripture and secular--a split occurs. The righteous are either run out of town by the wicked--now the majority--or choose to leave because staying means certain death, or even worse: slavery.
If they've listened to Father, the split comes as the next step: fleeing into the wilderness. By now the wicked are in full decadence and wretched consumption. They no longer have to be lured or eased into hell; they are now the proud owners of it. This step inevitably causes the loss of many righteous, who have grown at ease in Zion, and don't want to be bothered with sacrifice and difficulty. Unless they come to their senses and starting walking what they talk, they will inevitably be consumed by the wickedness they were too apathetic to flee.
Father will lead them to a safe place to build up a city fortress, for He knows what the righteous don't: this is merely buying them some time. The wicked WILL come.
Now keep in mind that these steps usually take place over many generations, even centuries. They have rarely occurred in a matter of a decade or two. And for those of you wondering why bother with all the steps when Father knows from the beginning what will happen, I remind you that what goes on here on earth is for our benefit, not Father's. WE are the ones who need to learn, NOT Father.
The moment of truth is now upon the righteous in the final step: Defending Zion and freedom. The one constant throughout history has been the showdown that must always happen so long as evil dwells among us. We have a choice to make then: risk death to defend the freedoms that God gave us but Satan seeks to steal, or choose to live under wretched slavery.
And here we are again, at that final step. Now if you ask anyone who has ever lived under Islam or communism--or Islammunism, given their Hitler/Stalin-esque Non-Aggression pact while they carve up the world between them--they will cry freedom. But it is a quirky thing that those who have had freedom and abundance have a tendency to choose "moderate slaver" or "slowly encroaching slavery" rather than risk pain, suffering, and losing their stuff.
Never once in history has any group unwilling to defend itself survived. Not once. Diplomacy, negotiations, reason, decency--all of these have only stalled the inevitable, and are useless against an indecent enemy. The War in Heaven--fought between those who wished to have the free will to choose and those who demanded you do it their way--has followed us to earth, and will always be here until the father of that war--Satan--is bound. Until then, we must re-defeat him and his followers over and over again, because he will never stop on his own, and neither will those who subscribe to the Satanic belief of force over free will. Every war in history has been between these two forces, and every war in the future will be the same until force is fully rejected by us.
And the One Inexorable Truth that all of these steps lead to? The answer is simple, and explains why we must keep fighting the same war over and over again.
Islammunists/hippies would have you believe that the righteous, Judeo/Christian groups are an oppressive bunch who impose their will upon those who choose not to believe. While there have certainly been individuals and groups in our history who have done so, the steps outlined here prove that to be completely wrong. You see, it isn't good that will not live with evil. Good can tolerate evil, and always has. It is evil that will never, ever, ever tolerate good. There could be one righteous man in a far off corner of the world, living on his own and interacting with no one and evil would seek him out with ravenous carnage.
That is why war with evil is inevitable; there is no permanent appeasement for those who never intend to let you live. And that is why any treaties signed by a follower of Islammunism can't be trusted. No matter how strictly you adhere to your side of the bargain, they will break theirs the minute they think they can hurt you, then hurry and promise to do it for real this time, no crossies count.
You need only look at restored Israel--who has kept every word it has ever given--and the Islamic stain they must live with. Out of every promise, treaty, truce, cease fire, etc., the phony-baloney Palestinians have ever signed, they have yet to keep one. This what God meant when he spoke, "But evil men and seducers shall wax worse and worse, deceiving, and being deceived." It has always fascinated me that Father put both--deceiving and being deceived--on the same level. Surely one is the sinner and the other the victim, right?
Wrong. When God has given you signs of the type of people to be wary of, when those people show over and over again their true intent while we play "Let's pretend they're not lying" when the only evidence you have is lies, broken promises, and murderous intent, sounds to me like maybe the victim's guilt is even higher. To be deliberately deceived is indeed wicked because we know better, and are too lukewarm to do things right.
No matter how many Oslos, Road Maps, or Annapolis's you have, so long as the House of Israel breathes, evil will come, for good doesn't follow evil. Evil will always, inevitably, follow good. So this whole dealing with Abbas instead of Hamas is like sending billions of weapons to Himmler to defeat Hitler: delaying the inevitable and helping them kill us. Israel could abandon all land on earth and take to the sea on giant pontoons and Islammunists would STILL seek them out and wipe them from the earth.
This has never been about land; it has been about life, and the fact that the House of Israel has one. If we don't defeat evil and keep it from us you can be sure that it will defeat us.
Just look at history; one very wicked man is all it has ever taken. And right now, we are overrun with many very wicked men.
Keep the faith, bros, in all things courage, and no substitute for VICTORY.

AUTOPSY--Murdering Freedom
By: Resa LaRu Kirkland
It all began with the following letter that I emailed to Dog's website, and then sent out to my mailing list to rouse support for Duane Chapman:
Dear DOG,
I left a phone message at the following phone number: 808-***-**** for you regarding his use of the word Nigger. (See? The world didn't end...it's just a damn word, the one thing that the Constitution ensures is free for all to use with no restrictions saving those of violence or panic.)
I wrote to you last week regarding your father, as I am a Military Historian whose focus is on the Korean War, and I wanted to know your dad's story. I also write conservative commentary online, known as the WARCHICK, and am good friends with Bob Parks. He, too, is a conservative commentator who cannot stand the enslavement and fear-based power of the leftist blacks.(You should see what his fellow blacks called HIM when he dared to write about their wretched behavior after Katrina. No one covered those words--far worse than Nigger--and Bob somehow survived) There is no one more kind, decent, or intelligent on this subject. He deplores the idea--as we all should!--that in a nation of free speech we inexplicably have words that, if uttered, can cause a man to lose his job, business, home, possessions, and even his freedom. I, too, have written about this and discussed it on my radio show:
http://www.warchick.com/2005/091005.htm
http://www.warchick.com/2005/081505.htm
http://www.warchick.com/2005/092805.htm
Please read these articles. I know, I know, you're busy, but you need to know that there is a whole network of conservatives of all colors out there who are determined to undo the insanity that PC--or as I call it, Political Castration--hath wrought. We have given words such as racist and sexist unreasonable power, and out of the fear of words--mere words, for God's sake!--men will cower from truth and do nothing against the lie. (If you know anything about communism, then you also know that triggering an emotional response in the brain temporarily disarms the logic center of the brain. Stalin enacted it as daily supplements when his brainwashing scientists recommended it as the best way to control the masses. This is also why the left in America is constantly trying to keep you emotionally driven. They know that logic and reason are NOT on their side...they must disarm those areas to keep you fearful and in line.)
Dog, PLEASE, I beg of you, don't hand your balls over to Political Castration. There are many of us who will back you. Tell the Hippy Press to kiss your ass, that you have the right to say whatever damned thing you choose to say and they do NOT have the right to punish you for it. YOU are the one in the right here, NOT THEM.
But worst of all, the Hippy Press has totally missed the point of all of this.
The fact that you were afraid of the word Nigger and the power it has to destroy--as evidenced by your words--should sound as a wake-up call to all Constitution-loving people. The one thing our Founding Fathers wanted to be free to all was speech, as they had come from lands where you could be jailed for saying the "wrong" thing. Their commitment to this was also a nod to the fact that all technologies and progressions can only happen so long as people are free to give voice to them.
The fact that we have allowed a damned word to have the power to destroy a good man is a horrific abomination. PLEASE FIGHT THIS...don't let the femmies, hippies, and commie-bastards take one more bite out of free speech. Not one more bite!
I will help you, along with my group of men and women, whites and blacks, Muslims, Jews, and Christians. You should be furious that a word--A WORD!!!--can cause you to lose your job and all you've worked for. This is a gross violation of the law of the land. A&E has committed a crime against the Constitution by firing you. No word was meant to have this kind of power. It is up to us to end this madness now. DO NOT SUBMIT WHEN YOU'VE DONE NOTHING WRONG! For crying out loud, Duane...those who extend this type of time and energy to a WORD will NEVER survive this war we call LIFE! You and I are made of much stronger stuff than that...it is time to demand that others suck it up and grow a pair as well. We will help you, Dog...please let us before it is too late.
As this letter made the rounds, I watched the around the clock coverage of THE DAY THE DOG DIED. Over the next few weeks we'll have to suffer through Jesse Jackson's bug-eyed mug demanding all whites flog themselves, and after DOG kisses his ass for an hour or two, he'll have to move on to that greasy, smelly, low-rent Jackson we lovingly refer to as Al Sharpton. That's worse news for DOG, however; ever one to try to one-up Jackson, Sharpton's behind won't be the only place DOG will have to kiss.
I'll wait while you shudder.
This kill-the-DOG overkill has left me weary and at the point of enough. I don't know about the rest of you, but it's time for a little free speech, so blacks, whites, and every color in between, brace yourself. I know how fragile we Americans have become, how easily offended and horribly scarred we get from mere words, so grab your pillow and ring up your Mommy--you're about to gasp and suck in more air than a Hoover on crack.
The worst thing you can call a black is Nigger.
Man is getting worse and worse, just as the scriptures predicted. I actually think the worst thing you can call someone is "coward." But words only have the power you give to them, and we have given racist/sexist words unreasonable power. Not even threatening to kick the crap out of someone--a far greater offense and one of the few things not protected by the Constitution--is viewed with so overwhelming an emotional response. I agree it's a negative word, but to call it the worst thing you can call a black person isn't even close. It is a word used with such frequency--hypocritically by blacks themselves--that to give it that kind of power is to keep us constantly emotional, marching, screaming, demanding, and other such hippy fagatronics (Inside Joke--sorry, Andy and Fran!) that now pass for normal.
Everyone knows the feeling of offensive words. Not one soul will ever get through this life without feeling the pains of words, and to say that one word is worse than any other offensive word is to be a respecter of persons, something that Judeo/Christian principles forbid. The thrower of such words is counting on them causing an emotional response rather than a logical and reasonable one. To give him what he wants ensures the victory of a tyrant and the continued life of that word. That word would be gone if it did not invoke such unreasonable power on American society. Remove the absurd power from it and it will shrivel and die.
For a man to fear losing his job, business, possessions, and even his freedom because of a word is beyond hypocrisy--it is evil. That he must now guard private speech is demented. And that we ignore a gross violation of both the law of illegal wire-tapping--apparently it's only wrong when Bush does it to catch Islammunists...glad I now understand this baffling and duplicitous modern-day rule--and the Constitutional violation of free speech has opened the door for a hippy drug-fest free-for-all abandonment of all things legal, holy, and decent.
This is what happened in the world before America was, and what happens now in Islammunist countries. Saying the wrong thing is all it takes to justify destroying you. We have no right to say thing one about those nations and their brutal massacre of freedom when here in America, racist/sexist words are doing the exact same thing.
The Constitution doesn't protect foul names or deliberate hate speech. You can't just hurt someone's feelings!
Wrong. Freedom of Speech was made to cover despicable language, NOT feel-good language. Our Founding Fathers came from nations where speaking anything negative or even perceived as negative--such as speaking truth regarding the church, king, or state--was punishable by confiscatory rights, imprisonment, banishment, or even hanging. They were criminals back in England, their speech labeled "treason," tried in absentia, declared traitors to the crown, and sentenced to death for daring to speak sedition against King George. Should freedom have been halted over the fear of words? Or so King George's feelings wouldn't be hurt?
Controversial speech will always need vigilant protection. To say that a certain word is good or bad is fine; but to use the powers of the government, industry, media, mobs or education to punish an individual for using that word is wrong. I don't like words like "bitch, cracker, snow white, polygamist, racist, Islamophobe, Jew-lover, etc." but I don't throw a tantrum over them, and it would certainly never, ever, EVER occur to me to demand punishment for their use. Why on earth should we make an exception for Nigger?
My people--Mormons--are the only religion in American history that had state-sanctioned torture, murder, and extermination orders. The only one. The names we were called are too numerous to recount, the rapes and murders and stolen property--never recovered, btw--so overwhelming that dwelling on them would cripple us. And still we have persevered, for one reason and one reason only: free will. It is the one area that trumps even unconditional love, for no matter how much our Father adores us, He will NEVER force us to heaven.
(Self defense of freedom, life and property is not forcing, and neither is trial/sentencing in a court of peers. These are acts of defense, so don't start that lame argument! Hippies, I'm looking harshly at you. Watch it or I'll really let you have it by calling you Nigger! I know the horrible power that word has to maim you wimpy types.)
When America did wrong by us, we sighed, buried our dead, abandoned the stolen property, ran for our lives and built up in Utah. When we were followed and harassed, we did it all over again. And when this same country demanded our men in the Mexican/American war--WHICH WE WON, illegals!--and the Civil War, we obeyed. Our land has never been returned; we have slowly been buying parts of it back. Did it hurt us? Damn straight! Were we angry? Of course we were! But that is why those who follow God are taught to wait until anger, fear, hatred, etc. subside and reason returns to make any decisions. Decisions based on emotion--particularly anger, fear, hatred, agitation, etc--are almost always wrong. It is reason that must rule the day when you are dealing with masses of people, NOT emotion. Emotion divides people into groups; it is reason and the willingness to recognize it that unites.
The wise man is slow to take offense, investigating first rather than expending all of that energy on a word of passion. We have become the second fastest word-provoked people on earth--Islam holds first place...for now--and it is a gutless salute to the easily led, easily outraged, and inevitably, the easily conquered.
(If you don't believe the power emotion has, take this simple test. Your wife walks into the house, bloody and battered, and says, "I was just raped!" If you are a normal human male, your first response is ALWAYS going to be, "I'm going to kill the SOB!" But once anger subsides, reason returns and you then say, "Come on, let's get you to the hospital and call the police." Reason is far more likely to obtain justice than emotion. And even when man's law fails--as anything run by man will--reason hands it over to the only one capable of complete and absolute justice: God.)
But common sense dictates that you don't say that word.
I agree; common sense dictates it, NOT government, business, the masses in an uproar, you, or me. If someone chooses not to be dictated to by common sense, however, the most we can do is feel disappointed and hope that someday they will mature. Common sense does NOT support punishment for the use of Nigger or any word in the Land of the Free. The reasons are too numerous--and too commonly known--for me to cover here, and besides, I know that you already know them, which makes this mass DOG pile even more puzzling. We know better than this, and are always quick to vocalize that we are a land of free speech. Our actions are another matter...
But here is the best reason of all--history has proven again and again that that which you enact to restrict against one group will always inevitably be justified against you and your group. The world's past is littered with the decaying corpses of people who decided to limit the freedoms of someone else now only to find themselves in chains later. While it is the word Nigger today, it may be the word Cracker tomorrow. Or Islam. Or commie-bastard. Or God. No unalienable freedom--those given by God and defended by man--has ever been revoked if it was not first qualified or altered.
One of the best examples of this is the unconstitutional tax called Income Tax. When it was introduced the second time after the Supreme Court shot it down in the late 1800's, the reason it was accepted is because it was only going to be used against the super rich, the top 3% in the nation. All of the middle class and poor shouted, "Yeah! Stick it to those rich sonsabitches!" Fools. Had they never allowed that first bite out of the constitution against someone else, we would not have the horrific burden of taxes--now at 60% when you combine all the taxes the average family pays--that is crushing the middle class today. Once that floodgate was opened, it was inevitable that it would swallow everyone.
Should those who are blessed more give more? You bet they should, but as with everything, it should be a choice, not a command. If they choose not to, then sigh and move on, and let them enjoy their reward. They have, after all, doomed their eternity with their worship of the god of lucre, and chosen to take their reward in this life rather than the next.
Giving because you choose to counts; giving because you have no choice doesn't.
Why?
How will you know if you would have given on your own if you were never given the choice to begin with? Being forced to do right emasculates this opportunity, and is contrary to a God who wants us back with Him because we want to be, NOT because we are forced to be.
It is inevitable that more words will be added to the "Forbidden" list, and eventually it will affect words we never intended to keep from speech. We either believe in the choice to use words--any words--or we don't; there simply is no middle ground. The minute you start trying to walk the middle of the road you have taken the first steps AWAY from the side of free speech, and the person who walks the middle of the road is a danger to everyone no matter what side they are on.
The war in heaven was fought between two sides: the side that wanted the freedom to choose to follow--or NOT to follow--Christ into salvation, knowing it could mean many of us would be lost, and the side that wanted to force everyone to do the right thing, guaranteeing that none of us would be lost, but all of us would be subjugated. It is deep within the human race to resent and rebel against any ideology that forces you to do something, even if it's a good thing. That instinct--which crosses all races, religions, and political leanings--is deeply embedded because a part of our souls remembers that before we were born we rejected the religion of force for the religion of free will.
The flip side of freedom is that some people are always going to choose to use that gift from God negatively. It is something that all freedom-loving people accept. The most we as individuals can do is avoid those who choose to violate God's law. But the minute we condone the destruction of another individual for his use of a word we have condemned ourselves; the creeping oppression will inevitably reach us. The war in Heaven has followed us to earth, and demands that we fight here for what we fought for there. That we are even considering embracing force now is madness.
The minute any human starts saying, "People must be forced to..." you need to turn and run; don't walk, RUN! Any plan that forces you to do a thing--even a good thing--is by definition Satanic. If you now use your free will to choose what you once rejected, it may very well be the last time you ever have a choice. Lucifer is, after all, a very bad loser, and so are those who enlist in his cause.
I've used the word Nigger in this article 10 times; I've even highlighted each and every one, and see? You're fine! The world didn't end, the mountains aren't erupting, the stars are still in the heavens, and we are rotating on our axis. It can be done. It requires only a strong core belief in what you claim to believe and eternal vigilance to ensure it remains your core belief.
Remove the ridiculous power we have given that word and move on, trusting that the majority of God's children will and do choose the right. And when some choose wrong, sigh, learn from the pain, thank God for the freedom to choose, and move on. Never forget that the minute you give a word the power to destroy a man's livelihood, freedom, business, and family, you've done more than hurt his feelings--you've stopped his progression and your own, for what begins with one group never ends with that group. It is simply the nature of man.
A word hurting your feelings? For crying out loud, America, grow up, suck it up, and shut up; painful words are the common human condition and you need to learn to deal with them NOW. It is up to freedom's supporter to grow from pain, not use it as a justification for bondage.
Is freedom dead? Yep; and the autopsy labels this one a deliberate, cold-blooded murder.
Nigger. Better say it while you can, Niggers, Chinks, Spics, Wops, Kikes, Gooks, Nips, Micks, smelly-assed camel jockey ragheaded sand monkeys. (Heh, that last one was just for fun; it's my personal favorite. Ahhh...freedom feels good, doesn't it?) Bring it on, ya commie bastards.
One last thought. It is fine with me if we change the definition of "Racist" to "anyone who is white" so long as we can change the word "Criminal" to "anyone who is black."
See how that works?
Keep the faith, bros, in all things courage, and no substitute for VICTORY--or FREEDOM.
It all began with the following letter that I emailed to Dog's website, and then sent out to my mailing list to rouse support for Duane Chapman:
Dear DOG,
I left a phone message at the following phone number: 808-***-**** for you regarding his use of the word Nigger. (See? The world didn't end...it's just a damn word, the one thing that the Constitution ensures is free for all to use with no restrictions saving those of violence or panic.)
I wrote to you last week regarding your father, as I am a Military Historian whose focus is on the Korean War, and I wanted to know your dad's story. I also write conservative commentary online, known as the WARCHICK, and am good friends with Bob Parks. He, too, is a conservative commentator who cannot stand the enslavement and fear-based power of the leftist blacks.(You should see what his fellow blacks called HIM when he dared to write about their wretched behavior after Katrina. No one covered those words--far worse than Nigger--and Bob somehow survived) There is no one more kind, decent, or intelligent on this subject. He deplores the idea--as we all should!--that in a nation of free speech we inexplicably have words that, if uttered, can cause a man to lose his job, business, home, possessions, and even his freedom. I, too, have written about this and discussed it on my radio show:
http://www.warchick.com/2005/091005.htm
http://www.warchick.com/2005/081505.htm
http://www.warchick.com/2005/092805.htm
Please read these articles. I know, I know, you're busy, but you need to know that there is a whole network of conservatives of all colors out there who are determined to undo the insanity that PC--or as I call it, Political Castration--hath wrought. We have given words such as racist and sexist unreasonable power, and out of the fear of words--mere words, for God's sake!--men will cower from truth and do nothing against the lie. (If you know anything about communism, then you also know that triggering an emotional response in the brain temporarily disarms the logic center of the brain. Stalin enacted it as daily supplements when his brainwashing scientists recommended it as the best way to control the masses. This is also why the left in America is constantly trying to keep you emotionally driven. They know that logic and reason are NOT on their side...they must disarm those areas to keep you fearful and in line.)
Dog, PLEASE, I beg of you, don't hand your balls over to Political Castration. There are many of us who will back you. Tell the Hippy Press to kiss your ass, that you have the right to say whatever damned thing you choose to say and they do NOT have the right to punish you for it. YOU are the one in the right here, NOT THEM.
But worst of all, the Hippy Press has totally missed the point of all of this.
The fact that you were afraid of the word Nigger and the power it has to destroy--as evidenced by your words--should sound as a wake-up call to all Constitution-loving people. The one thing our Founding Fathers wanted to be free to all was speech, as they had come from lands where you could be jailed for saying the "wrong" thing. Their commitment to this was also a nod to the fact that all technologies and progressions can only happen so long as people are free to give voice to them.
The fact that we have allowed a damned word to have the power to destroy a good man is a horrific abomination. PLEASE FIGHT THIS...don't let the femmies, hippies, and commie-bastards take one more bite out of free speech. Not one more bite!
I will help you, along with my group of men and women, whites and blacks, Muslims, Jews, and Christians. You should be furious that a word--A WORD!!!--can cause you to lose your job and all you've worked for. This is a gross violation of the law of the land. A&E has committed a crime against the Constitution by firing you. No word was meant to have this kind of power. It is up to us to end this madness now. DO NOT SUBMIT WHEN YOU'VE DONE NOTHING WRONG! For crying out loud, Duane...those who extend this type of time and energy to a WORD will NEVER survive this war we call LIFE! You and I are made of much stronger stuff than that...it is time to demand that others suck it up and grow a pair as well. We will help you, Dog...please let us before it is too late.
As this letter made the rounds, I watched the around the clock coverage of THE DAY THE DOG DIED. Over the next few weeks we'll have to suffer through Jesse Jackson's bug-eyed mug demanding all whites flog themselves, and after DOG kisses his ass for an hour or two, he'll have to move on to that greasy, smelly, low-rent Jackson we lovingly refer to as Al Sharpton. That's worse news for DOG, however; ever one to try to one-up Jackson, Sharpton's behind won't be the only place DOG will have to kiss.
I'll wait while you shudder.
This kill-the-DOG overkill has left me weary and at the point of enough. I don't know about the rest of you, but it's time for a little free speech, so blacks, whites, and every color in between, brace yourself. I know how fragile we Americans have become, how easily offended and horribly scarred we get from mere words, so grab your pillow and ring up your Mommy--you're about to gasp and suck in more air than a Hoover on crack.
The worst thing you can call a black is Nigger.
Man is getting worse and worse, just as the scriptures predicted. I actually think the worst thing you can call someone is "coward." But words only have the power you give to them, and we have given racist/sexist words unreasonable power. Not even threatening to kick the crap out of someone--a far greater offense and one of the few things not protected by the Constitution--is viewed with so overwhelming an emotional response. I agree it's a negative word, but to call it the worst thing you can call a black person isn't even close. It is a word used with such frequency--hypocritically by blacks themselves--that to give it that kind of power is to keep us constantly emotional, marching, screaming, demanding, and other such hippy fagatronics (Inside Joke--sorry, Andy and Fran!) that now pass for normal.
Everyone knows the feeling of offensive words. Not one soul will ever get through this life without feeling the pains of words, and to say that one word is worse than any other offensive word is to be a respecter of persons, something that Judeo/Christian principles forbid. The thrower of such words is counting on them causing an emotional response rather than a logical and reasonable one. To give him what he wants ensures the victory of a tyrant and the continued life of that word. That word would be gone if it did not invoke such unreasonable power on American society. Remove the absurd power from it and it will shrivel and die.
For a man to fear losing his job, business, possessions, and even his freedom because of a word is beyond hypocrisy--it is evil. That he must now guard private speech is demented. And that we ignore a gross violation of both the law of illegal wire-tapping--apparently it's only wrong when Bush does it to catch Islammunists...glad I now understand this baffling and duplicitous modern-day rule--and the Constitutional violation of free speech has opened the door for a hippy drug-fest free-for-all abandonment of all things legal, holy, and decent.
This is what happened in the world before America was, and what happens now in Islammunist countries. Saying the wrong thing is all it takes to justify destroying you. We have no right to say thing one about those nations and their brutal massacre of freedom when here in America, racist/sexist words are doing the exact same thing.
The Constitution doesn't protect foul names or deliberate hate speech. You can't just hurt someone's feelings!
Wrong. Freedom of Speech was made to cover despicable language, NOT feel-good language. Our Founding Fathers came from nations where speaking anything negative or even perceived as negative--such as speaking truth regarding the church, king, or state--was punishable by confiscatory rights, imprisonment, banishment, or even hanging. They were criminals back in England, their speech labeled "treason," tried in absentia, declared traitors to the crown, and sentenced to death for daring to speak sedition against King George. Should freedom have been halted over the fear of words? Or so King George's feelings wouldn't be hurt?
Controversial speech will always need vigilant protection. To say that a certain word is good or bad is fine; but to use the powers of the government, industry, media, mobs or education to punish an individual for using that word is wrong. I don't like words like "bitch, cracker, snow white, polygamist, racist, Islamophobe, Jew-lover, etc." but I don't throw a tantrum over them, and it would certainly never, ever, EVER occur to me to demand punishment for their use. Why on earth should we make an exception for Nigger?
My people--Mormons--are the only religion in American history that had state-sanctioned torture, murder, and extermination orders. The only one. The names we were called are too numerous to recount, the rapes and murders and stolen property--never recovered, btw--so overwhelming that dwelling on them would cripple us. And still we have persevered, for one reason and one reason only: free will. It is the one area that trumps even unconditional love, for no matter how much our Father adores us, He will NEVER force us to heaven.
(Self defense of freedom, life and property is not forcing, and neither is trial/sentencing in a court of peers. These are acts of defense, so don't start that lame argument! Hippies, I'm looking harshly at you. Watch it or I'll really let you have it by calling you Nigger! I know the horrible power that word has to maim you wimpy types.)
When America did wrong by us, we sighed, buried our dead, abandoned the stolen property, ran for our lives and built up in Utah. When we were followed and harassed, we did it all over again. And when this same country demanded our men in the Mexican/American war--WHICH WE WON, illegals!--and the Civil War, we obeyed. Our land has never been returned; we have slowly been buying parts of it back. Did it hurt us? Damn straight! Were we angry? Of course we were! But that is why those who follow God are taught to wait until anger, fear, hatred, etc. subside and reason returns to make any decisions. Decisions based on emotion--particularly anger, fear, hatred, agitation, etc--are almost always wrong. It is reason that must rule the day when you are dealing with masses of people, NOT emotion. Emotion divides people into groups; it is reason and the willingness to recognize it that unites.
The wise man is slow to take offense, investigating first rather than expending all of that energy on a word of passion. We have become the second fastest word-provoked people on earth--Islam holds first place...for now--and it is a gutless salute to the easily led, easily outraged, and inevitably, the easily conquered.
(If you don't believe the power emotion has, take this simple test. Your wife walks into the house, bloody and battered, and says, "I was just raped!" If you are a normal human male, your first response is ALWAYS going to be, "I'm going to kill the SOB!" But once anger subsides, reason returns and you then say, "Come on, let's get you to the hospital and call the police." Reason is far more likely to obtain justice than emotion. And even when man's law fails--as anything run by man will--reason hands it over to the only one capable of complete and absolute justice: God.)
But common sense dictates that you don't say that word.
I agree; common sense dictates it, NOT government, business, the masses in an uproar, you, or me. If someone chooses not to be dictated to by common sense, however, the most we can do is feel disappointed and hope that someday they will mature. Common sense does NOT support punishment for the use of Nigger or any word in the Land of the Free. The reasons are too numerous--and too commonly known--for me to cover here, and besides, I know that you already know them, which makes this mass DOG pile even more puzzling. We know better than this, and are always quick to vocalize that we are a land of free speech. Our actions are another matter...
But here is the best reason of all--history has proven again and again that that which you enact to restrict against one group will always inevitably be justified against you and your group. The world's past is littered with the decaying corpses of people who decided to limit the freedoms of someone else now only to find themselves in chains later. While it is the word Nigger today, it may be the word Cracker tomorrow. Or Islam. Or commie-bastard. Or God. No unalienable freedom--those given by God and defended by man--has ever been revoked if it was not first qualified or altered.
One of the best examples of this is the unconstitutional tax called Income Tax. When it was introduced the second time after the Supreme Court shot it down in the late 1800's, the reason it was accepted is because it was only going to be used against the super rich, the top 3% in the nation. All of the middle class and poor shouted, "Yeah! Stick it to those rich sonsabitches!" Fools. Had they never allowed that first bite out of the constitution against someone else, we would not have the horrific burden of taxes--now at 60% when you combine all the taxes the average family pays--that is crushing the middle class today. Once that floodgate was opened, it was inevitable that it would swallow everyone.
Should those who are blessed more give more? You bet they should, but as with everything, it should be a choice, not a command. If they choose not to, then sigh and move on, and let them enjoy their reward. They have, after all, doomed their eternity with their worship of the god of lucre, and chosen to take their reward in this life rather than the next.
Giving because you choose to counts; giving because you have no choice doesn't.
Why?
How will you know if you would have given on your own if you were never given the choice to begin with? Being forced to do right emasculates this opportunity, and is contrary to a God who wants us back with Him because we want to be, NOT because we are forced to be.
It is inevitable that more words will be added to the "Forbidden" list, and eventually it will affect words we never intended to keep from speech. We either believe in the choice to use words--any words--or we don't; there simply is no middle ground. The minute you start trying to walk the middle of the road you have taken the first steps AWAY from the side of free speech, and the person who walks the middle of the road is a danger to everyone no matter what side they are on.
The war in heaven was fought between two sides: the side that wanted the freedom to choose to follow--or NOT to follow--Christ into salvation, knowing it could mean many of us would be lost, and the side that wanted to force everyone to do the right thing, guaranteeing that none of us would be lost, but all of us would be subjugated. It is deep within the human race to resent and rebel against any ideology that forces you to do something, even if it's a good thing. That instinct--which crosses all races, religions, and political leanings--is deeply embedded because a part of our souls remembers that before we were born we rejected the religion of force for the religion of free will.
The flip side of freedom is that some people are always going to choose to use that gift from God negatively. It is something that all freedom-loving people accept. The most we as individuals can do is avoid those who choose to violate God's law. But the minute we condone the destruction of another individual for his use of a word we have condemned ourselves; the creeping oppression will inevitably reach us. The war in Heaven has followed us to earth, and demands that we fight here for what we fought for there. That we are even considering embracing force now is madness.
The minute any human starts saying, "People must be forced to..." you need to turn and run; don't walk, RUN! Any plan that forces you to do a thing--even a good thing--is by definition Satanic. If you now use your free will to choose what you once rejected, it may very well be the last time you ever have a choice. Lucifer is, after all, a very bad loser, and so are those who enlist in his cause.
I've used the word Nigger in this article 10 times; I've even highlighted each and every one, and see? You're fine! The world didn't end, the mountains aren't erupting, the stars are still in the heavens, and we are rotating on our axis. It can be done. It requires only a strong core belief in what you claim to believe and eternal vigilance to ensure it remains your core belief.
Remove the ridiculous power we have given that word and move on, trusting that the majority of God's children will and do choose the right. And when some choose wrong, sigh, learn from the pain, thank God for the freedom to choose, and move on. Never forget that the minute you give a word the power to destroy a man's livelihood, freedom, business, and family, you've done more than hurt his feelings--you've stopped his progression and your own, for what begins with one group never ends with that group. It is simply the nature of man.
A word hurting your feelings? For crying out loud, America, grow up, suck it up, and shut up; painful words are the common human condition and you need to learn to deal with them NOW. It is up to freedom's supporter to grow from pain, not use it as a justification for bondage.
Is freedom dead? Yep; and the autopsy labels this one a deliberate, cold-blooded murder.
Nigger. Better say it while you can, Niggers, Chinks, Spics, Wops, Kikes, Gooks, Nips, Micks, smelly-assed camel jockey ragheaded sand monkeys. (Heh, that last one was just for fun; it's my personal favorite. Ahhh...freedom feels good, doesn't it?) Bring it on, ya commie bastards.
One last thought. It is fine with me if we change the definition of "Racist" to "anyone who is white" so long as we can change the word "Criminal" to "anyone who is black."
See how that works?
Keep the faith, bros, in all things courage, and no substitute for VICTORY--or FREEDOM.

LATEST FROM SALMAN KHETANI, FAISAL'S BROTHER
Dear Salman,
I have a quick question for you, and I hope you take it as intended. Given the attacks on America and Israel, it is only reasonable to expect us to question the intentions of those who belong to any group that cries for our destruction.
Can you tell me about this site? Is this standard? How many within the Muslim community support stuff like this:
http://www.worldtribune.com/worldtribune/06/front2454022.0881944443.html
I'm really not trying to be snotty, but these things are legitimate concerns. Thank you for any insight you can give me.

SO SAYS WARCHICK, Resa LaRu Kirkland
Columnist/Writer/Speaker/Military Historian/The Anti-Feminist!
Agree with RESA at: http://www.warchick.com
Hippies, commies, and femmies opinions altered here!!
STAND WITH ISRAEL! FREE NORTH KOREA!!
POW/MIA: Bring them home or send us back!
Hi Resa,
You are right in that we should question and be on the look out for any group
that cries for our destruction. There are religious, geopolitical, social and
economic issues that are all partly to blame for the hatred and destruction
that has been spawned at the start of this century. Lack of education and
homogeneity of populations also play a role (i.e. some have never lived
amongst
anyone but their own kind, who practice the same religion). As you know, my
family and I have been very focused on assimilating well into American society
and educating ourselves. Clearly, the American lives that are being lost in
Iraq and the hatred towards us by these so-called 'Muslims' is very
disturbing,
not just for you, but also for me and my family. I don't want to be subjected
to random suicide attacks, because you and I both know that when these people
kill, they kill without looking to see who is getting hurt. Of course, the
world trade center had people from all over the world.
Your question is very reasonable indeed. I can tell you that as in every
religion, there are liberals, conservatives, people in between and then
ridiculous fanatics. My family and I are liberals in a sense that we believe
Islam, Christianity and Judaism are God's religions and they are to be honored
and respected. Of course, we believe in general tolerance for all
religions. I associate with people of all faiths and in my experience
in America, I have
never met people who want to hurt others. I have met people who have
fundamental ideological differences, but many people can have that without
wanting to kill others.
Resa, clearly there are many people in the world who want to hurt us
Americans. And, it breaks my heart that many of these people are considered
'Muslim'. From my readings and experience, Islam in its core tenets is not
violent and very reasonable. These fanatics have interpreted many
things wrong
and though I don't have enough knowledge to give you a detailed historial and
political explanation, I can say that I have practiced a liberal version of
Islam well while associating with great rapport with Christians, Hindus, Jews,
Muslims and people of other faiths.
I don't know whether many Muslims in US support destruction of others, but in
my experience of 15 years in America, it seems to be a small percentage. I
have no idea what that violent percentage is except that these people have
infiltrated our way of living and peace and should be thoroughly investigated
and expelled. Maybe the percentage is higher when it comes to not supporting
American involvement in Iraq and Afghanistan, but I believe that a high
percentage of America in general doesn't support the war and the casualties
that we are experiencing. But, Pakistanis (my country of origin) for instance
are more supportive of the war in Iraq (and hence Allies of America)
since many
from Pakistan don't want any terrorism on their Afghani border and America is
helping them eradicate the violent component.
The site you emailed me about is by no means standard I think. What is
written on it is outrageous! Don't these people want to contribute something
to the world besides death? What is violence going to solve? What is killing
people going to solve? Violence and fighting have existed throughout history,
but where has it gotten us? I advocate for tolerance and great dialogue and I
believe that the Muslims I know advocate the same.
I only want one thing: To be safe, happy and living. If God forbid, in the
future, America is constantly attacked by terrorists, no matter what religion
they claim they are from, we must all join in speaking and acting against the
evil. Peace, goodness and life should matter more to us than anything else.
My answer is probably not very useful to you since I don't know of anyone who
even considers hurting others, but I wanted to give you the opinion of a
liberal Muslim, one who really wants to live peacefully and productively with
people of all faiths and backgrounds.

***UPDATE***Letters from Salman and Ramzan Khetani
Salman is Faisal's brother and Ramzan is his father. Please read and respond.
Hello Resa,
My name is Salman Khetani and I am Faisal Khetani's brother. I was told by my father that you had inquired about the nature of my research, its scope and implications for the society at large. I have decided to respond to you because I want you and your readers to know about the types of opportunities I have been given in the US and the steps I have taken to reciprocate. My family and I immigrated to the US over a decade and a half ago in search of better professional and academic opportunities. We wanted to better ourselves through education and become productive members of society. I personally wanted to get the best education I could get and realize my vision of becoming a leader in science and engineering. Even in adolescence, I realized that I had the innate talent and drive to contribute to this world and improve the lives of people through my professional endeavors.
When I first started high school in the US, I had some difficulties with the transition, especially in terms of a slight language barrier (I knew how to read and write English, but didn't speak it very often before coming to the US). My parents, peers and wonderful teachers coached me through my transition period. They encouraged me and assured me that with hard work and struggle, I could overcome some of my initial problems. I was never discriminated against for my accent or darker color. In fact, I was well respected by most people I came into contact with at my high school and in the general community. I will always remember my mentors (teachers, soccer and tennis coaches, peers) in high school as they were my first impression of the graciousness of the American people. I assimilated well into the American society, made many friends, had an active social network, did decent amount of volunteer work to give back to the community and after 3 years, graduated as Valedictorian of my high school with a 4.0/4.0 GPA.
I received a scholarship to go to college where I pursued two Bachelor of Science degrees in Electrical Engineering and Biomedical Engineering. Once again, I had a wonderful experience. Not only did I learn the state-of-the-art in Engineering and Science, I used my skills to contribute to neighborhood organizations that served educational and other important needs of underprivileged youth and adults. In college, I had amazing professors as mentors, who instilled in me the value that with hard work, perseverance and a vision for the future, I could become a highly skilled and productive member of society, one who tries to improve the health and lives of people. They saw core talent in me from early on, talent that even I did not know existed. I also did substantial internships in industrial settings while I was in College and there too, I met the most brilliant, but incredibly generous people. Thanks to the financial generosity of my parents, mentorship of professors in school and coworkers in industry, support of peers, and my own hard work, I graduated college with two degrees and a 4.0/4.0 GPA.
Due to my high academic performance in college, I was awarded a National Science Foundation graduate fellowship to pursue doctorate work in Biomedical Engineering, which is also referred to as Bioengineering. I successfully defended and received my PhD in 2006. My research has focused on developing sophisticated laboratory models of liver tissues using liver cells from mostly animals and in some instances from brain-dead individuals (who have donated their organs for research). The overarching goal of my work is to use these body-like laboratory models for a variety of applications, including a) cell-based therapies for liver disease (i.e. bio-artificial liver devices that can keep a patient alive while they await a whole organ transplant), b) to investigate liver physiology and elucidate underlying mechanisms, and c) use in discovery and development of pharmaceuticals for detecting potentially problematic and toxic compounds before they reach patients. As you may know, many drugs reach the market and get withdrawn due to unforeseen toxicity to the liver or other organs in otherwise perfectly healthy individuals. Thus, the goal of my research is to make sure that such tragedies don't happen and that laboratory models using live cells from either animals or organ donors can predict problems much earlier in the drug development cycle. Therefore, as you can see, my research is aimed at helping society and not harming it. My work has been published in both scholarly journals and in lay press. I have included links and abstracts of these articles for your review below. All of these are available at www.pubmed.org which is a national archiving service. I hope that someday my work will be adopted by the pharmaceutical industry to make cheaper and above all, safer drugs for patients. Though I didn't comment explicitly on the amazing mentorship I received during graduate school, I wanted to just comment that getting a PhD is intimately tied to great mentorship and a great cohort of colleagues. I too had the great fortune to benefit from these aspects. In fact, nothing I accomplished in graduate school was in isolation. It was due to extensive technical help and scholarly advice from my supervisor and my colleagues. In spite of being involved in research over the last 6 years, I have only begun to realize my vision for the future. I plan to continue to use my engineering and biology skills sets to do cutting edge research and make important discoveries in a variety of different arenas in both academic and industrial settings.
I hope the narrative above provides you with some indication of the type of life I have lived so far and what my vision for the future is. I would like to reiterate to you that I want to help America and the World at large with my skills and research. I sincerely hope that I will continue to get opportunities which will allow me to accomplish my goals. For over a decade and half, I have had great experiences both academically and in the larger communities of the several states I have lived in. I love America, the diversity of cultures and religions here, and the generosity of the people. I learn from this diversity each and every day and I believe that I do my best to contribute with what I have. I understand that you wanted to probe deeper into what I do and if I was engaged in any so-called 'double work'. I would like to assure you that my family and I are humble, peace-loving and productive members of society. Regardless of our religion, we want nothing but the best for the US, of which we have been citizens of for almost a decade now.
Sincerely,
Salman R Khetani

In Vitro Liver Tissue Model Established from Transgenic Mice: Role of HIF1alpha on Hypoxic Gene Expression.

The instability of the hepatocyte phenotype in vitro has limited the ability to quantitatively investigate regulation of stress responses of the liver. Here, we adopt a tissue-engineering approach to form stable liver tissue in vitro by forming collagen "sandwich" cultures of transgenic murine hepatocytes harboring a regulatory gene of interest flanked by loxP sites. The floxed gene is excised in a subset of cultures by transfection with adenovirus carrying the gene for Cre-recombinase, thereby generating wild-type and null liver tissues from a single animal. In this study, we specifically investigated the role of hypoxia inducible factor 1 alpha (HIF-1alpha) in the hepatocellular response to hypoxia. Using high-density oligonucleotide arrays, we examined genome-wide gene expression after 8 h of hypoxia in wild-type and HIF- 1alpha null hepatocyte cultures. We identified more than 130 genes differentially expressed under hypoxia involved in metabolic adaptation, angiogenic signaling, immediate early response, and cell cycle regulation. Real-time polymerase chain reaction analysis verified that known hypoxia-responsive genes such as glucose transporter-1 and vascular endothelial growth factor were induced in a HIF-1alpha-dependent manner under hypoxia. Our results demonstrate the potential to integrate in vitro tissue models with transgenic and microarray technologies for the study of physiologic stress responses.

Engineered tissues can be employed for studies on the fundamental mechanisms of embryology and adult physiology and for investigating the evolution of disease processes. They also provide platforms to evaluate the behavior of new chemical entities in drug development. The recent development of three specific technologies has greatly facilitated the engineering of tissues for in vitro applications: the microfabrication tools that serve to both define the cellular microenvironment and enable parallelization of cell-based assays; synthetic, tunable hydrogels to create three-dimensional microenvironments; and bioreactors to control nutrient transport and fluid shear stress. Furthermore, convergence of these tools is providing investigators with the opportunity to construct and study tissues in vitro with unprecedented levels of sophistication.

In vitro zonation and toxicity in a hepatocyte bioreactor.
Allen JW, Khetani SR, Bhatia SN.
Department of Bioengineering and Medicine, University of California at San Diego, La Jolla, California 92093-0412, USA.
The complex architecture of the liver is intertwined with its response to xenobiotic compounds. In particular, hepatocyte subpopulations are distributed along the sinusoid in zones 1 to 3, leading to prototypical "periportal" and "centrilobular" patterns of cell death in response to a toxic insult. In vitro models that more closely represent these zones of sub-specialization may therefore be valuable for the investigation of hepatic physiology and pathophysiology. We have established a perfused hepatocyte bioreactor that imposes physiologic oxygen gradients on co-cultures of rat hepatocytes and non-parenchymal cells, thereby producing an in vitro model of zonation. In order to predict and control oxygen gradients, oxygen transport in a parallel-plate bioreactor containing co-cultures was first mathematically modeled and experimentally validated. Co-cultures exposed to these physiologic oxygen gradients demonstrated regionally heterogeneity of CYP2B and CYP3A protein that mimics the distribution seen in the zonated liver. The distribution of CYP expression in the bioreactor was shown to vary with exposure to different chemical inducers and growth factors, providing a potential platform to study physiologic zonal responses. In order to explore zonal hepatotoxicity, bioreactors were perfused with APAP (acetominophen) for 24 h, resulting in maximal cell death at the low-oxygen outlet region similar to centrilobular necrotic patterns observed in vivo. This hepatocyte bioreactor system enables further in vitro investigation into zonation-dependent phenomena involving drug metabolism and toxicity.

Exploring interactions between rat hepatocytes and nonparenchymal cells using gene expression profiling.
Khetani SR, Szulgit G, Del Rio JA, Barlow C, Bhatia SN.
Department of Bioengineering at the University of California-San Diego, La Jolla, CA 92093-0412, USA.
Cocultivation of primary hepatocytes with a plethora of nonparenchymal cells (from within and outside the liver) has been shown to support hepatic functions in vitro. Despite significant investigation into this phenomenon, the molecular mechanism underlying epithelial-nonparenchymal interactions in hepatocyte cocultures remains poorly understood. In this study, we present a functional genomic approach utilizing gene expression profiling to isolate molecular mediators potentially involved in induction of liver-specific functions by nonparenchymal cells. Specifically, primary rat hepatocytes were cocultivated with closely related murine fibroblast cell types (3T3-J2, NIH-3T3, mouse embryonic fibroblasts) to allow their classification as "high," "medium," or "low" inducers of hepatic functions. These functional responses were correlated with fibroblast gene expression profiles obtained using Affymetrix GeneChips. Microarray data analysis provided us with 17 functionally characterized candidate genes in the cell communication category (cell surface, extracellular matrix, secreted factors) that may be involved in induction of hepatic functions. Further analysis using various databases (i.e., PubMed, GenBank) facilitated prioritization of the candidates for functional characterization. We experimentally validated the potential role of two candidates in our coculture model. The cell surface protein, neural cadherin (N-cadherin), was localized to hepatocyte-fibroblast junctions, while adsorbed decorin up-regulated hepatic functions in pure cultures as well as cocultures with low-inducing fibroblasts. In the future, identifying mediators of hepatocyte differentiation may have implications for both fundamental hepatology and cell-based therapies (e.g., bioartificial liver devices). In conclusion, the functional genomic approach presented in this study may be utilized to investigate mechanisms of cell-cell interaction in a variety of tissues and disease states.

Hello Resa,
My name is Salman Khetani and I am Faisal Khetani's brother. I was told by my father that you had inquired about the nature of my research, its scope and implications for the society at large. I have decided to respond to you because I want you and your readers to know about the types of opportunities I have been given in the US and the steps I have taken to reciprocate. My family and I immigrated to the US over a decade and a half ago in search of better professional and academic opportunities. We wanted to better ourselves through education and become productive members of society. I personally wanted to get the best education I could get and realize my vision of becoming a leader in science and engineering. Even in adolescence, I realized that I had the innate talent and drive to contribute to this world and improve the lives of people through my professional endeavors.
When I first started high school in the US, I had some difficulties with the transition, especially in terms of a slight language barrier (I knew how to read and write English, but didn't speak it very often before coming to the US). My parents, peers and wonderful teachers coached me through my transition period. They encouraged me and assured me that with hard work and struggle, I could overcome some of my initial problems. I was never discriminated against for my accent or darker color. In fact, I was well respected by most people I came into contact with at my high school and in the general community. I will always remember my mentors (teachers, soccer and tennis coaches, peers) in high school as they were my first impression of the graciousness of the American people. I assimilated well into the American society, made many friends, had an active social network, did decent amount of volunteer work to give back to the community and after 3 years, graduated as Valedictorian of my high school with a 4.0/4.0 GPA.
I received a scholarship to go to college where I pursued two Bachelor of Science degrees in Electrical Engineering and Biomedical Engineering. Once again, I had a wonderful experience. Not only did I learn the state-of-the-art in Engineering and Science, I used my skills to contribute to neighborhood organizations that served educational and other important needs of underprivileged youth and adults. In college, I had amazing professors as mentors, who instilled in me the value that with hard work, perseverance and a vision for the future, I could become a highly skilled and productive member of society, one who tries to improve the health and lives of people. They saw core talent in me from early on, talent that even I did not know existed. I also did substantial internships in industrial settings while I was in College and there too, I met the most brilliant, but incredibly generous people. Thanks to the financial generosity of my parents, mentorship of professors in school and coworkers in industry, support of peers, and my own hard work, I graduated college with two degrees and a 4.0/4.0 GPA.
Due to my high academic performance in college, I was awarded a National Science Foundation graduate fellowship to pursue doctorate work in Biomedical Engineering, which is also referred to as Bioengineering. I successfully defended and received my PhD in 2006. My research has focused on developing sophisticated laboratory models of liver tissues using liver cells from mostly animals and in some instances from brain-dead individuals (who have donated their organs for research). The overarching goal of my work is to use these body-like laboratory models for a variety of applications, including a) cell-based therapies for liver disease (i.e. bio-artificial liver devices that can keep a patient alive while they await a whole organ transplant), b) to investigate liver physiology and elucidate underlying mechanisms, and c) use in discovery and development of pharmaceuticals for detecting potentially problematic and toxic compounds before they reach patients. As you may know, many drugs reach the market and get withdrawn due to unforeseen toxicity to the liver or other organs in otherwise perfectly healthy individuals. Thus, the goal of my research is to make sure that such tragedies don't happen and that laboratory models using live cells from either animals or organ donors can predict problems much earlier in the drug development cycle. Therefore, as you can see, my research is aimed at helping society and not harming it. My work has been published in both scholarly journals and in lay press. I have included links and abstracts of these articles for your review below. All of these are available at www.pubmed.org which is a national archiving service. I hope that someday my work will be adopted by the pharmaceutical industry to make cheaper and above all, safer drugs for patients. Though I didn't comment explicitly on the amazing mentorship I received during graduate school, I wanted to just comment that getting a PhD is intimately tied to great mentorship and a great cohort of colleagues. I too had the great fortune to benefit from these aspects. In fact, nothing I accomplished in graduate school was in isolation. It was due to extensive technical help and scholarly advice from my supervisor and my colleagues. In spite of being involved in research over the last 6 years, I have only begun to realize my vision for the future. I plan to continue to use my engineering and biology skills sets to do cutting edge research and make important discoveries in a variety of different arenas in both academic and industrial settings.
I hope the narrative above provides you with some indication of the type of life I have lived so far and what my vision for the future is. I would like to reiterate to you that I want to help America and the World at large with my skills and research. I sincerely hope that I will continue to get opportunities which will allow me to accomplish my goals.

PREPARING FOR WAR IN THE STREETS...COULD THIS BE WHAT KHETANI'S GROUP IS UP TO?
Hat Tip: Michael (You know who you are!)
America's most gorgeous, not to mention credible, journalist Pamela Geller Oshry continues to expose the truths that our irresponsible, traitorous, liberal media refuses to acknowledge.
Preparing for War in the Streets of America
Can't reveal my sources on this but here's something to chew on.
"Public information officers or spokesman for law enforcement agencies are purposely downplaying and in some cases lying outright to the public about arrests of Muslims in the US," so said one Federal law enforcement official.
"We have been told what to say, and more important, what not to say, and warned not to deviate from the 'template.'
According to this source, this is causing some officers within various departments of federal agencies to become angry at the 'mandated political spin and pressure" created by 'orders from above." When asked who were giving such orders, this source could only say that it was from the "big boys in Washington DC."
Apparently this is killing morale and "everyone knows it's a joke." "It makes some of us sick, the politically correct shit we have to put up with."
The source whose father was an agent during the 1960s racial problems said what was happening then was nothing short of easy compared to now. "In those days at least there was some honesty in dealing with the problem, today there is none."
Specifically this source was responding to inquiries concerning one MOUSA M AMBUELAWI , 22, a Muslim fro St Charles Missouri who was charged buying or attempting to buy grenades, weapons and claymore mines to be used to "prepare for war."
MAN WAS ARMING FOR WAR St Louis Post Dispatch
A St. Charles man obtained fully automatic weapons and tried to buy as many explosives as possible in preparation for what an associate called "war," the FBI says in court documents.
He bought three rifles and a Claymore anti-personnel mine and negotiated for a case of hand grenades, documents obtained by the Post-Dispatch show.
Mousa M. Abuelawi, 22, of Franjoe Court, was arrested Dec. 29 and charged on complaints accusing him of three counts of illegal possession or distribution of a machine gun and conspiracy to violate machine gun statutes.
Abuelawi, a Palestinian immigrant free on $50,000 bond, could not be reached.
The context of the word "war" was not explained in court filings; the FBI declined to comment.
According to the agent, this case "fits a pattern we've been seeing."
"We're discovering more and more trafficking in arms and these kind of explosives, the stuff you see in the Middle East."
There are more and specific cases that illustrate that there are Muslim men here in the US that are "preparing to fight on the streets of our cities, or at least that's what they think they are going to do." And so they are "buying these weapons and even explosives, stealing them in many cases, preparing for this eventuality."
The men invloved in this movement commonly refered to as "the paintball jihad" Besides buying weapons and anything they can get their hands on, they are practicing urban combat.
"What is surprising to us, such as the trafficking in rocket launchers ( a reference to case in Albany) is that we are seeing more of this, more attempts to buy the kinds of weapons that used to be unheard of in law enforcement circles. It's a growing problem, one that we will see in streets before long, I'm afraid."

Here it is...this is the one I'm waiting to hear back from Mr. Khetani on, regarding the obvious metal building behind his house.
They grow bolder...
...as we fall asleep. Tennessee, what the hell....?

I sent this to the fine folks at euphoricreality.com, and thought you might find it interesting too.

did some picture taking today. (as far as I know all attachments are scanned by yahoo and are virus-free). sorry the quality isn't better - i used my camera phone. These are all pretty non-descript buiildings, nothing really out of the ordinary. The last one is particularly interesting I think.
3028 N Maryland, duplex. The address of the property information I sent yesterday (I think). No parking on one side of the street, so I took this while driving past. Milwaukee east side, not far from UWM.
229 W Orchard, duplex? The property Faisal currently has for rent, and has listed on the Milwaukee craigslist. Milwaukee south side.
1020.jpg - 1020 E Pleasant. Apt building where Sajid Nasir lives. Milwaukee east side.
Sajid Nasir's mailbox, confirmation of residence.
2045 N Oakland. Apt building where Acccchmed Busra lives.
Another view, with moving truck. HMM.
The biggie. 9035 S. 49th St is one of these two houses. It is also the official listed address of Capital Renovations LLC, "d/b/a" of Bargain Suppliers. Per http://ccap.wicourts.gov, John Kenenakhone is listed to the address, who along with Ryan Pattee run "Commercial Bargains LLC". The connection? John K's phone number (and address) are listed on the Capital Renovations record, along with Faisal's sportsfitness@gmail.com address.
Ryan P is the only other employee of the Commercial Bargains, according to www.manta.com. http://ccap.wicourts.gov lists Ryan P.'s apt is 2nd St. downtown Milwaukee address. The business is on S. 4th St. in a warehouse on Milwaukee's south side. Why someone with a LLC at his home address be driving more than 13 mi & 15 min to another LLC?
I could not find at the time, 3270 W. American Dr., but later looking at http://local.live.com with the bird's eye feature I was on the right track - it was a condo complex.
Now the big question - what needs to be done with info?

There is a factory behind my house, but it is not attached to my house and its in a completely different lot, which is completely unrelated to my residential property, and not at all a part of it. Please look up the address of that factory and look up their information to confirm that they are in no way related to my property and in no way affiliated with my company. If in doubt contact the City of West Allis to ask them what that factory is and what kind of products they produce.

BTW, Resa,
If you search his 106th St address in Google Earth, you will see that directly behind his house (maybe even attached to it) is one of those large half round metal buildings. If he is drop shipping, why does he need that?

Google Earth placemarks
These are Google Earth "placemarks" where you can find locations using the Google Earth system. If you have Google Earth installed, you can double-click on the attached Placemark file and it will fly you to a location. If not, you will need to install Google Earth first (available at http://earth.google.com).
