This is my new piece at NewsReal Blog dealing with calls for amending free speech to placate Muslims. Here’s a taste:
And what would we get in return? The “good will†of the Muslim street? The same “good will†displayed when Palestinians–who live off U.S. aid–danced in the streets after 9/11?
The European countries that have kowtowed to these barbarians for decades have experienced the “good will†of the Muslim street through the brutal gang rape epidemic in Northern Europe and the out of control Muslim dominated child sex trafficking rings in England. Is this the “good will†we will receive when we abandon our Western values of liberty and free thought at the behest of a corrupt Afghan politician who is stoking anti-American violence?
The pusillanimity of the Left in the face of Islamic imperialism is almost understandable. The feckless, morally bankrupt European Left has long traded their children’s future for their own comfort, safety and petty Marxist hatreds. For the American Left, their pathological hatred of the West trumps their own hollow rhetoric about freedom. To see people on the Right, even “moderates†like Lindsey Graham, promoting the punishment of those who offend the uncivilized sensibilities of the Muslim street is is more than disgusting. Our leaders, the media, and a significant number of Americans do not understand the threat of Jihad, Islamic Imperialism and the internal drive unreformed Islam has toward world domination.
Rob Taylor,
I agree with you. Anyone who actually takes the time to think about it, should realize that the actions of the these maniacs are not the fault of terry Jones, nor will trying to appease the maniacs by abandoning our values out of fear work. If anything it will just encourage them.
Rob Taylor,
Also, as for Hamid Karzai, his government has tried people for converting to religions other than Islam, which as far as I’m concerned, means he has no business talking to us about sensitivity towards other people’s religious beliefs, including his own.
Placating, apologizing, butt kissing, and groveling are all signs of weakness, and only embolden these inbred sub-human mutants AKA radical Islamists. The US has become a joke in the minds of the devious plotters in the Caliphate.
