vanity help the press overcome islamophobia

In reading the news on the internet and local fishwrap as well as watching the reporting on Fox I've noticed a lack of identification, discussion and analysis of the recent attack at the Salt Lake city mall.

The fact that this man was a muslim seems to have escaped the otherwise stellar performance of our “free press”.

I seem to remember an incident in
-North Carolina where a muslim tried to run over college students.
- California airport where muslim shot somebody or stabbed someone at the terminal
- Seattle Jewish community center shooting of staff members
- Washington DC/Maryland/Virginia area where two muslims had a sniper party for several weeks
- San Francisco shooter going down the street trying to kill innocent citizens.

Could we as the pajamahadim on the Free Republic help the main stream media with a list of attacks in the United States since 9/11.

Sirhan Sirhan/ the Cole incident/ Marine Corp barracks bombing/Airline bombing over Lockerbie/ don’t count since the media, the democrat party, and liberals have told us that prior to 9/11 and the provocation of the Bush administration, islamic hatred for American values and society didn’t exist and that these were isolated incidents.

I’m a little tired of hearing, reading and seeing the life of a fat blonde stripper in place of being informed of how many other terrorist incidents have occurred and the low level insurgency that is taking place in our country.

Thank you for your help in this matter....

I hereby declare a fatwah/jihad on the ignorance of the media..... Akbah Fubar!!!!!!!!

Was he out to be a martyr or just a secular nut? Perhaps the only way we'll know if

Headline in an offshore newspaper: Muslims charge bigotry, demand off-duty cop be charged. Utah shooter's family denied martyrdom: five infidels not enough, says Inman. "Family may not get to join martyr."

A mite too sarcastic?

I too wonder about

"-North Carolina where a muslim tried to run over college students.

"- California airport where muslim shot somebody or stabbed someone at the terminal

"- Seattle Jewish community center shooting of staff members

"- Washington DC/Maryland/Virginia area where two muslims had a sniper party for several weeks

"- San Francisco shooter going down the street trying to kill innocent citizens."

plus others like, did Terry Nichols meet with radical Muslims in the Philippines or not. . . .

Let's see absolute proof in the old media that's there is zero connection to radical Muslims in all the cases.

What truly infuriates me is that the initial statement from the police was "there is no known motive" for the shootings; understandable in the confusion immediately after the shooting. It certainly doesn't help that the killer is dead.

But...

It would be the height of incompetence, bordering on the criminal, if after questioning witnesses, searching his house and other places where the slimeball hung out, talking to his friends, the police are still clueless about possible motive.

I don't believe it.
I do believe that the public is being kept in the dark, deliberately, for reasons that I can't even begin to guess.

I agree - the only way you can do this, however, is start it with a "blame bush" sentence...otherwise the media will squelch it.

It will have to start out something like, "Well, America suffered another terrorist attack at the hands of Muslims last week, but to admit it is to examine the failed immigration policies of the Bush administration."

It's sort of like a fish hook with a really big, juicy worm on it.
