Andrea Mitchell: American Muslims 'Understandably' Very Worried About Backlash
NewsBusters ^ | Mark Finkelstein

Everyone knows about the terrible backlash against America Muslims after 9-11, so it's understandable for Muslims to be worried about a post-Boston bombing backlash, right?

What? There was no major backlash against Muslims in 2001 or thereafter? American Jews suffer far more religion-based attacks than Muslims every year? Then why did Andrea Mitchell today exclaim that Muslims were "understandably" very worried about a backlash?

Maybe they will be worried enough to leave.

Probably little or no chance of that. They know they've got it made in the USA as opposed to the failed nations where the Moslems are in charge. They just constantly try to improve their position here by whining and moaning and claiming 'Islamophobia' and discrimination at every opportunity.

They also know there are always plenty of guilt-ridden, self-loating white folks around to take their entirely unjustified bitching seriously.

If there is any more backlash like we have seen since 9/11 we’ll soon be finding muslims in our sock drawers.

Raucous LOLs -- totally!!!

Hopefully they are worried enough to self deport.

They contribute NOTHING to our society but death and destruction. They cannot be allowed to continue to exist here.

A free society cannot exist unless it is free of Islam.

Sometime during the Vietnam war it became a rite of passage for liberals to sigh loudly and exclaim "we have met the enemy and it is us." (No thanks at all to Walt Kelly, who should have known better). It was the sign of an open mind, high ideals, and the courage to speak the truth to power...well, all right, truth be told it was none of that, it was the cowardly self-absorption of idiots who wished to absolve themselves of all the evil in the world by the simple act of transcending, i.e. betraying, their own society. Risk-free moral absolution protected by the First Amendment and in the keeping of the very people they curse.

That part hasn't changed. "We're the enemy" is so reflexive by now that it has become a panacea for all matters political even if the actual upshot is to make the speaker look as stupid as Mitchell does here.

In plain historical fact backlash toward members of an organized religion that has made systematic warfare on the West has been negligible to nonexistent, yet it remains the first resort of the liberal commentariat for one arrogant, condescending reason - they regard their countrymen as unprincipled savages and their moral inferiors.

I think a canvas tarp is more appropriate.

If one group remains silent about the problem, then by default, they are part of the problem!

If I was an inbred pedophile-worshipping misogynist, I’d be very worried too.

Why are we still letting Muslims into the country? Liberal Christian denominations are welcoming them with open arms and supporting them. What’s wrong with this picture?

Islam should be declared to be incompatible with a free society and banned. Send the Muzzies back to the country of their choice, and institute the “pet the pig” test to come to the country or to board a plane.

Yes, I am intolerant of people who seek to destroy the US.

If they are worried about a backlash then they should stop blowing shit up...

Amazingly, after the photos of the two killers started showing up on every TV channel, no member of their family, their "community" their mosque, their relatives and friends, their university fellows, nobody called the authorities to say "HEY! I KNOW THOSE GUYS!"

NOT EVEN THEIR ESTRANGED, OUTRAGED UNCLE...

Typical airhead, herdthink limo liberal: Goodness, anything but make the Muslims mad by pointing out that their religion is churning out violent psychopaths who can not be permitted to operate in the US.

If we admit this out loud, the psychopaths in global illiberal land who love them and abet them in their crimes of torture, mutilation and mass murder, will lose an avenue of mayhem to visit on the American Nation and peple (abet only whiteys) they hate.
