It’s ironic that the extremist, militant, Islamic leaders scream for their followers to “resist the invaders” as they put it, because the foreigners have a history of denigrating Islam. As Al-Qaeda’s number two man, Ayman al-Zawahri, called for such resistance in his latest video, the irony of such a position apparently escaped him. Al-Zawahri, and others of his ilk, derives their power by denigrating every other religion and philosophical belief system except for their very fundamental version of Islam. As extremist Islamic groups continue to poison the well of ideology with their amorality and complete disregard for human life, the rest of the world, and especially the Islamic faith, must unite to banish such repugnants and their doctrine of violent intolerance. If we fail in this regard, we will be sentenced to a future of violence and unrest.

These are not driven by poverty and socio-economic status. They are not propelled by a desire to obtain just treatment for them and those of their faith. They are motivated purely by the need to dominate the minds of all of humanity, once again ironic, as it could be argued they are, themselves, inhuman. They have a long history of using violence to both promote their causes and achieve their agendas. This will only cease to exist, if they, themselves, do likewise. We are not going back to life as it was in the tenth century. The Islamofacists need to face that reality and contribute to society, rather than trying to destroy it.

How does this affect you in your daily life and the desire for financial security? It contributes to uncertainty. Uncertainty is the enemy of markets world wide. If you have any holdings that are influenced by happenings overseas, keep a sharp eye on the news as it pertains to international events. The reality is that, you, as an individual, can do little to combat the scourge of fundamentalist terrorists. Given that is the case, it’s best to just hang on to a bit of rage over their behavior and the fact they want you dead simply for what you believe. Just keep your house in order and persevere in your daily life.
