Hillary Clinton Denounces Rich Pakistanis For Their Failures, and What She Says Raises A Larger Question

After a meeting of NATO representatives, Hillary Clinton made a statement both remarkable and unremarkable. It was to publicly denounce the Pakistani rich for not contributing to the wellbeing of their country, and to fellow Pakistanis, while continuing to allow the Western taxpayers -- few of whom live as the Pakistani rich, including those who serve, or are married to, Pakistani ambassadors (that daughter of the Wali of Swat, married to Husain Haqqani and, before her, there was Manaz Ispahani of the zamindar Ispahani family).

Here are Clinton's remarks.

She could have done more. She could have gone beyond announcing that it is the duty not only of the rich Pakistanis to start contributing to the survival of Pakistan, instead of avoiding taxes (and blaming the Infidels for all of Pakistan's woes, and expecting them, those Infidels, to solve the problems that Islam itself causes or greatly exacerbates). She might have said that the Western taxpayers are fed up with transferring still more money for the care and feeding of Musilms and the "reconstruction" of such countries as Iraq and Afghanistan, and especially so given the trillion dollars each that Saudi Arabia, and the Emirates, now poseess, and similar if smaller sums posssessed by Kuwait, Qatar, and other Muslim members of OPECD.

The Muslim members of OPEC have been the beneficiaries of the largest transfer of wealth in human history. They have received, in 2010 dollars, about fourteen trillion dollars since 1973 alone, with more trillions coming every year. They have done nothing, not lifted a finger, not discovered the oil, not developed the oilfields, not found ways to transport and refine and distribute the oil, to deserve those trillions, which are purely the result of an accident of geology. They have spent much of that money in the first place on themselves, those ruling families, with their princes and the princelings and the princelettes and the courtiers of every corrupt kind, on the most fantastic and decadent luxury. And they have spent money to spread Islam, to broadcast its message, to pay for the building and permanent upkeep of mosques -- tens of thousands of mosques by now - all over the Western world. They have paid for carefully-targetted campaigns of Da'wa, aimed at the socially and psychically marginal members of Western society. They have paid for propaganda campaigns to promote the Islamic world-view,and to prevent, or limit, the ability of Westerners to examine critically the nature of Islam, and the beliefs of those who take Islam most to heart.

And while that fourteen trillion dollars was being transferred from non-Muslim countries to Muslim countries, this was not enough. No, it was for some reason decided that any Muslim country that did not have oil wealth would start receiving Western aid, or even if it possessed oil wealth, it would have its debts cancelled by the Western nations, though not by its Muslim creditors (see Iraq, where nearly 100 billion dollars in debts to creditors in the West were cancelled), and if it did not possess such wealth, would be given billions in aid. Pakistan, Egypt, Jordan, Yemen, and now we are told Somalia, too, as well as the "Palestinian" Authority, that is the terrorist PLO-cum-Fatah, in a new guise, with a new name, under not-exactly-new management, have all received a total of more than one billion dollars among them, with not a squeak from any Western leader about the absurdity of this continuing further transfer of wealth from non-Muslims to Muslims, Muslims who do not -- insofar as they are Muslims -- wish us, the non-Muslims, well.

And the transfer of wealth from non-Muslim taxpayers to Muslim countries (and to a corrupt class that seizes much of that wealth for itself -- see the karzai family, see the Mubarak family-and-friends plan, see the villas and bank accounts of the late Yassir Arafat, Mahmoud Abbas, and a few dozen of the top "Palestiniani" warlords -- and don't forget their thriving children, especially those of Mahmoud Abbas, either) is not the only outrage. Within the non-Muslim lands, the Muslim immigrants have far higher rates of unemployment, because the women are to stay at home and breed, breed, breed, and the men -- well the men have every right to live off the dole, to fiddle the system, for they have a right to help themseelves proleptically to the Jizyah which is due them, due all Muslims, while they wait for as long as it takes for Muslims to dominate, and the Jizyah to be formally instituted, rather than, as now, merely informally seized by those who know they, and in a different way the Infidels, have it coming.

This must stop.
