So now Barack Hussein Obama's Presidential Library and House of Pancakes has officially opened to grace the skyline of the most corrupt major city in America. A dark, foreboding tower shaking it's fist at the heartland of America, this monstrosity has taken much heat for being an architectural eyesore. Here is one example of that criticism. It also features a good photo of the great stone phallus symbolically sodomizing the Chicago South Side.

My first thought when seeing it was "Triumph Mosque".

When Muslims conquer a land they would first build a mosque honoring their triumph over the aboriginal inhabitants. That mosque generally included a call to prayer tower - a minaret.

Obama, you may remember, was raised in Indonesia as a Muslim by his Muslim step father. This is what he would think of when he thinks of victory. It is also what he would tell his architect he would like to show.

My second thought was any castle erected after conquering a nation. One of the keys to controlling a conquered people is to make them FEEL conquered, and to do that armies have historically built castles on high ground to remind the conquered peoples that they won and the legitimate rulers lost. You build a big, often ugly building with massive defenses, solid structures, that look imposing and evil, something that says "don't you dare!" to the fallen peoples.

That is precisely what this monstrosity looks like and it is intended to project a psychological thumb in the eyes of the American People "I won, you lost!"

It is an enormous Medieval middle finger to Middle America.

What did anyone expect from Obama? He made his contempt for American values quite plain, and he promised "change" by which he meant the DESTRUCTION of what America had been and the creation of something different, a transmogrification of the beautiful spacious skies and amber waves of grain into a dark and sinister dystopian world. He may not have seen his vision as dystopic but rather as "freeing" as has every tyrant and oppressor, but in the end it's no different than any of the schemes to create paradise on Earth - it lead to entropy and decay and oppression. Hitler, Stalin, any of those who sought to fundamentally change human society have all brought the same.

Take Genghis Khan. What is often not mentioned about the bloodthirsty conqueror was that he thought he was doing the work for his god, and he thought he was going to conquer all Mankind in order to save it. As he was on a religious crusade he was absolutely determined and relentless. No quarter was given to anyone who opposed him, and one of his favorite things to do was confine his enemies in a box and then seat himself on top of it for a feast while they slowly suffocated to death. Nice guy.

But in many ways he is much like a modern liberal, and we don't even know how many he murdered, or how much suffering he caused. Certainly Russia was formed by his kindred; it was actually more advanced and enlightened than Western Europe prior to the coming of the Golden Horde. Ukraine - one of the great lights of Europe, was reduced to a wasteland and kept that way by the Mongols for centuries. It's why Moscow - a good vassal to the Mongols - became =the ruling power in the region and not Kiev. In fact the name Ukraine is Russian for "the Borderland". It ws nothing but a waste.

Al because Genghis Khan worshipped a false god and wanted to impose that god on all Mankind.

At any rate Obama has much the same philosophy. Whether he worships Allah or the God of Rousseau, Marx, and Lenin is unclear, but he worships a dark god nonetheless and he seeks not to persuade but to conquer. And certainly he deserves a arch de triumph. That is what his "library" is all about.

It's his victory mosque, his medieval castle, his victory dance on the graves of his foes. One can see him feasting on top of his enemies as they die, much as Genghis Khan had done. And it is an eyesore on purpose (as is almost all modern art) to show that he has won and thus free to offend and insult everyone. Modern art is all about insulting and offending and not about much else. It is the ultimate FU to the public.

But in the end all the dark towers will fall one way or another, just as Nimrod's dark tower fell at Babel. Obama is another Nimrod.
