Marches and rhetoric are no substitute for reasoned action. More feel good, meaningless gestures.

Talk is cheap.

Politicians are big on it.

It's easy to "honor" someone.

The prevention of a re-occurrence, the protection of innocent people--that kind of action is what's needed.

No thanks for the "honor". No thanks for the talk.

Let's see some action. Otherwise--

Go to hell!

You would think that Barry would at least send John Francois Kerry. But after all he did say if the wind changed he would stand with the Muslims so he’s keeping his word for once in his sorry muzzie life.

Egyptian President Abdel Fattah al-Sisi delivered a possibly epochal speech at Al-Azhar University on New Year's Day. More than a thousand years old, Al-Azhar is considered by many to be the epicenter of scholarly Islam. Addressing the assemblage of imams in the room, al-Sisi called for a "religious revolution" in which Muslim clerics take the lead in rethinking the direction Islam has taken recently. An excerpt (as translated by Raymon Ibrahim's website):

"I am referring here to the religious clerics (said Al Sisi). … It's inconceivable that the thinking that we hold most sacred should cause the entire umma (Islamic world) to be a source of anxiety, danger, killing and destruction for the rest of the world. Impossible!

"That thinking — I am not saying 'religion' but 'thinking' — that corpus of texts and ideas that we have sacralized over the centuries, to the point that departing from them has become almost impossible, is antagonizing the entire world. It's antagonizing the entire world! ... All this that I am telling you, you cannot feel it if you remain trapped within this mindset. You need to step outside of yourselves to be able to observe it and reflect on it from a more enlightened perspective. "I say and repeat again that we are in need of a religious revolution. You, imams, are responsible before Allah. The entire world, I say it again, the entire world is waiting for your next move … because this umma is being torn, it is being destroyed, it is being lost — and it is being lost by our own hands."

The courage of president, Al- Sisi, put him on par to Anwar Sadat among the greatest leaders of the Muslim world.

That is in stark contrast with Obama, our taqiyya Muslim president, who has never condemned the “Islamic terrorists” as such. He is a de facto enabler of the Islamic terrorism; otherwise he would never set free the worst of the worst Islamic terrorists that were imprisoned in Gitmo. Obama absence from the show of support for the people of France in the Paris’ demonstration of solidarity against terrorism, a united rally where most of the important leaders of the world were present, makes it clear here his heart is.
