"Where are we on this Jihad?"

--Bill Gates



Joker: We came in peace; Shame it didn't work out. Love, Microsoft



Summary: It cannot be overstated that we're under attack (or a "Jihad" against Linux as Bill Gates himself put it) and failing to act upon it will be costly as time may be running out and our groups are being 'bought off' by Microsoft in rapid succession, as per the plan/strategy

THE large (and fast-growing) number of carcasses outside Microsoft's lair/cave does not seem to intimidate those standing to gain from Microsoft's monopoly, either as employees or partners (MSPs, MVPs etc.) and we must learn the correlation between the agenda and their words.



When a Microsoft-funded site like ZDNet tells us that Microsoft 'comes in peace' we must immediately take that as a stern warning, not a constructive advice.

"Linus Torvalds, obviously against his choice, is being bossed by several Microsoft employees who receive 100% of their salary from Microsoft. Does that seem normal to anyone?"Having witnessed firsthand the cult tactics of Microsoft (trying to cause me trouble at work for merely writing about Microsoft in a way that Microsoft disliked) I can say with 100% certainty that Microsoft has not changed at all, except it has managed to infiltrate many projects and institutions formerly considered part of the "the community" (does anyone still think that the Corporate Linux Foundation has any community element left in it?!). Linus Torvalds, obviously against his choice, is being bossed by several Microsoft employees who receive 100% of their salary from Microsoft. Does that seem normal to anyone? Speaking out against Microsoft can cost him his job now. The employer is receiving annual bribes from Microsoft.
