The Democratic Party has Stopped Watching the Jihad

Robert Spencer at Hot Air tells you why that last episode of 24 won’t just be, like some people suggests, fear mongering propaganda if the Dems get their way. Pandering to a vocal base is nothing new, but our security is at risk if we stop actively denying the Jihad. The 910 Group should be required reading for all Americans before contemplating support for the Democrats new Jihad friendly agenda.

But unlike other critics of the left, I will say that it isn’t incompetence that drives these sorts of policies, it’s desire. The left wants to fight it’s “real enemy”, which it sees as Conservatives, American Patriotism and Capitalism. And by fight I mean argue, debate and legislate against. What the left doesn’t want is total war, 20-30 years of constant conflict with an enemy who will force traditional non-combatants, both theirs and ours, into combat. The left doesn’t want to fight an insurgency in the cities, or fight fellow Americans who betray the Nation for their violent ideology. But most of all they don’t want to stand with the hated “Right” against a group of people who they like to think of as helpless, even though the evidence that our vision of Muslims as peaceful primitives in need of our enlightened guidance is wrong.

The left doesn’t want there to be a Jihad, and until it strikes again they’ll operate as if there isn’t one.
