                     (By way of a personal conversation with David Barton on 11 May 2026 I am authorized to quote from his writings on this subject in pages 19-26 of his Founders Bible). This incredible Bible is worth obtaining by everyone, who is interested in Bible study and the history of the evolution of freedom in America.

DISCLAIMER: "Islamism is not a form of the Muslim faith or an expression of Muslim piety; it is, rather a political ideology that strives to derive legitimacy from Islam...Islamism is anti-Semitic...anti-Israeli, and it is also anti-American....Islamism is therefore not about the Islamic faith. Rather, it is a dystopian ideology that distorts religion and reality...Islamists distort their very own religious texts...Consider the various annotations of the Muslim sacred book, the Koran. I came across an English-language Koran printed in Saudi Arabia, the main purveyor of Islamist texts worldwide.In its man-made annotations, this Koran preached violence and hatred towards Jews, Christians, the West...The future of many countries in the world, and the future of the West, will be determined by this battle between Muslims and Islamists. Islamists want to convert Muslims to their hateful ideology. God knows the world needs more Muslims and fewer Islamists." July 8, 2016. Soner Cagaptay is a senior fellow and director of the Turkish Research Program at the Washington Institute. 

    In the interest of the Biblical origins of the Muslim faith as a religion and the Islamist threats to the Western World, it is helpful in the New American Standard Bible to study Genesis 17:12. Abraham fathered the child of Sarah's maidservant Hagar, Ishmael. It is written "He will be a wild donkey of a man, His hand will be against everyone, And everyone's hand will be against him;" You THINK that DNA has carried through all these centuries to the current world of Islamists and their warrior/terrorists?

     As soon as my Founders Bible was received, I delved into this valuable resource and discovered the history of the Barbary Pirates. One of the funniest lines ever spoken by Johnny Carson in his late night show was, "I did not know that!" As I delved into a study of the article. I was enlightened on every page beginning to recognize that the September 11, 2001 attacks on our homeland were perpetrated by descendants of Biblical Ishmael. These descendants first raised their ugly heads after our American Revolution and became America's first war in the 1780s. "Five different Islamic nations (Tunis, Morocco, Algiers, Tripoli , and Turkey) began making indiscriminate, ferocious attacks against the property and interests of what they claimed were Christian nations (America, England, France, Spain, Portugal, Sweden, etc.). The pirates operated primarily in the Mediterranean Sea, but those along the Moroccan Atlantic coast and western parts of the of the Mediterranean coast also sent ships up along the European Atlantic coast, reaching the British Isles, Norway and even Iceland."(19).

     "They captured Christian nation ships wherever they found them, seized their cargo as loot, and killed or enslaved their seaman....It is estimated that from the sixteenth to the nineteenth century , pirates captured one million Europeans as slaves....The payment of blackmail, disguised as presents or ransoms, did not always secure safety with these faithless barbarians. (20). (Author's note;) Makes me wonder about the monies transferred by President Barack Hussein Obama to Iran during his administration. What would be the nature of these monies? Blackmail or ransom? In 1784 the first American ship was seized by Moroccan pirates. This same year, "Congress authorized American diplomats John Adams, Benjamin Franklin, and Thomas Jefferson to negotiate with the Muslim terrorists." (20). America was spending one-sixth of our annual budget in payment to these criminals. 

     President George Washington was disgusted with this annual extortion drain on the budet of this new nation and he lamented, "Would to Heaven we had a navy able to reform these enemies to mankind-or crush them into nonexistence." (22). Nonexistence? Sound familiar in the spring of 2026, when there is a threat of Iran proceeding on to their goal of nuclear weapon development, which has been deemed as an "existential threat to the free world." You think that history has a way of repeating itself? 

     A very significant fact became evident from the mission of the three American negotiators. If individuals pay attention to this, it will add greatly to our understanding of modern day Islamists, who still adhere to what our negotiators were told by the ambassador in Tripoli in 1784 as to the motivation behind  the unprovoked attacks against Americans. The following is critical to understand what we were and are up against from "these wild men." SURPRISE SURPRISE SURPRISE! From another popular show "Gomer Pyle."

     That it was founded on the laws of their Prophet [Mohammed}---that it was written in their Koran that all nations who should not have acknowledged their authority were sinners; that it was their right and duty to make war upon them wherever they could be found and to make slaves of all they could take as prisoners; and that every Musselman [Muslim] who should be slain in battle was sure to go to Paradise. (20).

     I rest my case! The modern day Islamists are reading the same Koran. President George Washington moved forward to have our own Navy. We did initiate a Navy and unleashed our Marines on the Barbary Pirates (1801-1805). Now we sing in the Marine Hymn "To the shores of Tripoli.
