Naming Your Enemies from Planck's Constant

In Genesis 2:19 we are told that shortly after God created every beast of the field and every fowl of the air, he brought them unto Adam and gave Adam his first job: to name every living creature in order to have dominion over them (you cannot control that which you cannot name).

And so it is sad to note that the Obama administration has taken it upon itself to refuse to name those who wish to destroy America. First they took away 'Islamic' from 'Islamic terrorists.' Then they took away 'terrorists' and so we were left to fill the empty quotes with words about some nebulous men who caused disasters.

We have ended up ignoring the religious component that drives those who wish to harm us. Now that we are blind to the ideology that motivates them, how can we possibly set up a defense against them?

The reason that Israeli airline security is better than ours is that they know who their enemy is. They know what he looks like, they know his religion, they know his agenda, and they've read his military manual: the Quran. The Israelis are proud to profile.

Meanwhile, Jihadists who visit Yemen for months of terror training and who carry no passports or luggage freely enter the United States without visas and with the word terrorist stamped on their foreheads.

Since there are no such persons as 'Islamic Terrorists,' old ladies from Des Moines, IA are just as likely a threat to this country as Mohammed over there with the RPG strapped to his back.

Before they named things, prehistoric men had a tough time surviving wild animals:

Prehistoric Language	Translation
Oooga looga dooga	Hey watch out that thing is coming to our cave!
Mooga ooga?	What thing?
Ooga Booga Tooga	That thing with the big ears and sharp claws.
Fooga ooga yooga?	The thing that flies over dead things?
Nooga Nooga - ooga kooga ... wooga.	No, no, the thing that kills ... nevermind - too late.

Obama has set us back 100,000 years and vulnerable to attack by those we cannot name.

Note: the photo at the top is of a typical Middle East family waiting to board a British Airways flight to Detroit. They will have no problem entering the US and perhaps causing some unnamed disasters.
