The Islam as a great religion of peace characterization is one of the grandest cases of Orwellian double speak propaganda that has ever been perpetrated by the Liberal media. Where is their journalistic impartiality? The same major media outlets, which are so reluctant to publish Danish cartoons, apparently have no qualms about showing new Abu Grave (sic) pictures, releasing the intricacies of our domestic intelligence gathering, or the vulnerable spots of our soldier's armor and equipment.
Coupled with this is an aggressive abridgement of free speech. The "peaceful" practitioners of Islam start assassinating people and burning things whenever an Infidel voices any form of criticism. Nor are believers spared Allah's wrath either; take Salman Rushdie for instance. In fact, when I mention writing this article to anyone, they always advise me to be quiet or I will probably be killed. Possibly killed by being run over with a car, like the terrorist just did at UNC. If a Jihadist doesn't get me first, then the Leftists will. Most likely by suspending me from school, which also happened recently in Illinois to students who did have the spine to publish the cartoons.
There has been a consistent movement among Liberal professors and journalists to distort the true nature of Islam. In effect, they are running PR for any group that is anti-American, especially Islamic radicals. Certainly we can all agree that the 9/11 attacks were America's fault... (Islam's little monument to peace). They have duped the average college student into thinking that Islam is a religion of peace and tolerance. All this, while the head of state in Iran is spewing rhetoric that would make Adolph Hitler cringe, and swearing to wipe Israel and America off the face of the earth.
By now any Liberal will begin losing their grip on reality. They will fall back on their sole and favorite tactic (name calling) in order to obstruct free speech and eliminate any actual debate. But before they can, I am going to eliminate their miniscule, cliched grab bag of pejoratives, which they will inevitably try and use against me.
Racist: One who discriminates on the belief that one race (not religion) is superior to another. Furthermore I am not advocating discrimination, just requesting that we call a spade a spade, preferably without fear of death.
Fascist: A fascist is an adherent of ultra-nationalistic socialism; so you lefties are halfway there, and I am certainly not making reference to their nationalism.
Stereotype: This requires judgments acquired culturally or from society; as opposed to a rational evaluation based on personal experience.
Come on "libs," throwing nasty words around that are inaccurate is really just an assault on and dilution of the English language, and we all suffer...

He's right about the liberal media, but let's not forget it was Bush who spread about that Religion of Peace meme after 9/11. Bush has frequently bent over backwards to play nice over the religion of Islam itself. True, he should be diplomatic about it, but he seems to go out of his way to be politically correct about it (a lot of good it's done him; they don't hate him any less for it).
You are preaching to the choir in this case. I don't know why our President wasn't more specific...I think he was just overly optimistic and a little naive.
He has of late however called the enemy "islamofascism"...and that pretty much nails it.
I did...but it hasn't appeared yet.
What I find sad is: why is this news? Why does this NEED to be said? It's stating the obvious!
It is also a comment from inside the university system by a conservative (surely a great minority).
If you get a chance, give him some feedback at the link.
As much as I hate it, and I do hate it, it just isn't possible for our political leaders to not play nice with the head cutters. Not until we(congress) grows some stones and invest in energy resources here in America. Until then, we have to tread that fine lines, and it angers me to no end having to do it.
"Perpetrated by the Liberal media"?
Hmmmmm, let's see wasn't it GW that came up with that line shortly after 9/11 and continued pumping it out there for the longest time?
And before I get flamed, yes I voted for him twice and gave money twice ... as I fully understood the alternatives.
No islam, Know Peace.....mosquewatch.com
Fight those who believe not in Allah nor the Last Day, nor hold that forbidden which hath been forbidden by Allah and His Apostle, nor acknowledge the religion of Truth, (even if they are) of the People of the Book, until they pay the Jizya with willing submission, and feel themselves subdued.ML/NJ
When the lion (no pun intended) is at the gate the lefties will let him in.
