Rouhani Blames the West for Rise of Islamic State, Demands Apology
National Review ^ | September 25, 2014 | Andrew Johnson

Posted on 09/25/2014 11:20:03 AM PDT by ryan71

Iranian president Hassan Rouhani, whom the Obama administration has considered enlisting in the fight against the Islamic State, blamed the growing threat of the jihadist group on the West’s involvement in the Middle East.

During his speech at the United Nations General Assembly on Thursday, Rouhani said, “Today’s anti-Westernism is the offspring of yesterday’s colonialism; today’s anti-Westernism is a reaction to yesterday’s racism,” according to a live translation. “Certain intelligence agencies have put blades in the hands of madmen who now spare no one.”

“All those who have played a role in founding and supporting these terrorist groups must acknowledge their errors, which have led to extremism,” he continued. “They need to apologize not only to the past generations, but also to the next generation.”

He also chastised Western media for identifying the Islamic State as being motivated by Islam.

“I am astonished that these murderous groups call themselves ‘Islamic,’” he said. “What is more astonishing is that the Western media in line with them repeats this false claim, which provokes the hatred of all Muslims.”

President Obama and other Western leaders, however, have gone to lengths to argue that the Islamic State is not properly Islamic.

“I am astonished that these murderous groups call themselves ‘Islamic,’”

Then you are the only one. Everyone else sees Islam for the festering boil on the ass of humanity that it is.

Must be a Muslim.

It’s always somebody else’s fault.

Which differentiates them from liberals...who claim it’s always Bush’s fault.

Then why don’t these Muslims get off their respective ‘proper’ as&es and free themselves from the terrorists?

Wow.

So how does this Islamic nutcase explain the previous 1400 years?

Islam has always been at war—with the rest of the world.

It is its mission.

I actually laughed out loud when I read this. I had to see if John wrote this.

You believe this?

I keep looking up to see who’s coming down out of the clouds.

President Cruz will be able to solve the world’s mullah problem simply by popping an EMP over Teheran.

The regime’s command/control & secret police apparatus will be decapitated with few if any civilian casualties, and the entire nation of Iran then will be plunged into chaos.

Mullahs will be decorating lamp posts all across the Persian land if we do that.

Alahasnackbar is pretty much the universal chant all muslimes seem to be yelling.
