Games Muslims Play
One of the most addicting emotions we can have is one of self-righteous outrage. You don’t even have to be “right” to have self-righteousness. Almost everyone has played this game of moral outrage at one time or another. When little Johnny, age 5 breaks a flower vase in the living room, his Mom might hear it and come in to say, “Who broke this vase?” Johnny, knowing from the tone of her voice, that he is in big trouble says, “The doggie did it.” Since the dog has been outside for an hour, she spanks him and says, “I will not have a child lie to me.”
Dr. Berne, in his book, in his book GAMES PEOPLE PLAY calls this game “Now I’ve Got You, You SonOfABitch.” It’s not that Johnny just broke a vase, but he is set up to be guilty of a worse crime. “Now I’ve Got You, You Lied To Me, Like All Men Lie, Like Your Father Lied. Etc.”… He was forced into lying about it. While he’s getting a spanking, he’s saying to himself… “Wait a minute, how did we get here? I broke a vase and here I am getting spanked for lying?”
The emotion of moral outrage is very addicting to immature people. I’m saying that jihad-prone people are not that clever. It’s easier to push the situation to make little Johnny even MORE WRONG than to lovingly and wisely say, “Oh, did you break the vase, let’s clean it up before you hurt yourself.”
Liberals love to play “Now I’ve Got You, You SonOfABitch” too. They slap a “FREE TIBET” bumper sticker on their car and prove they care more than you do. They don’t do anything more than “care”. But they feel self-righteousness. If we would go in with guns ablazing to “free Tibet” they would change bumper stickers to say “War Is Not The Answer.” More self-righteousness.
Muslims play “Now I’ve Got You…” also… There is no difference between the Mom spanking little Johnny and Jihad. (Except for the bloodletting.)
Is it possible to train Muslims to stop the Jihad game and instead of killing the infidel to help us all clean up the mess? I think not. For, according to Jihad thinking, infidels are the mess.
Maturity, is always a process of “thinking about our thoughts.” If we don’t know why we think the way we do, we will never allow ourselves to have another thought. We train our minds to think in a certain way. And if you are upset, as Jihadis seem to be, you have to do three things at the same time to be so pissed off…
1. You have to overlook the good. There is so much good in the world. And there is so much good that infidels have done. We build the skyscrapers they love to destroy. We build the assault weapons they love to use. They use Israeli guns, Russian guns and American guns. We build the technology to pump the oil out of their grounds and turn it into gasoline. Do they have a problem with all that? Do they have the courtesy to say “Thank You” before decapitating someone who has directly or indirectly bless their life? Overlooking the good is a Jihad thing to do.
2. You have to Focus On The Bad. Yes, we have Paris Hilton. And I guess that’s bad. And there are gay pride marches with those awful tutus. (I do wish those guys would wear a suit if they want to be taken seriously.) But focusing on the bad is necessary if you’re going to play the game of Jihad.
3. And finally, you have to Exaggerate The Importance Of The Bad. This is a vital element of proper Jihad. You can’t just say “Oh, those silly American Crusaders.” No. You’ve got to be insulted all out of proportion, to rampage and murder innocent by-standers when a cartoon appears, when a dictator (Sadaam) is toppled, or when your behavior is challenged. You’ve got to “feel” like a woman, that this slight, is intolerable. I could argue that Jihadis are behaving very much like a scorned female. Remember, “feelings” are not necessarily facts. If you FEEL something is true, your feeling does not make it true. You can feel that the moon is made of cheese, but it does not make it so. You need to gather all of the facts. All of them. Not just the “fact” that moon is the same color as some cheese. If you cull out a few facts to make you hate Jews and Christians, you’re still being a girly Muslim. Of course you can find a few facts… that might annoy you about infidels… but you MUST exaggerate those few facts in order to conduct your beloved, bloodletting jihad.
Remember Jihad boy, you must do all three of these things AT THE SAME TIME in order to make yourself miserable enough to play the game of “Now I’ve Got You, You Son Of A Bitch”… or as you call it: jihad.
