Young Turks (Mark Steyn)

A Tweet from Yasmina Haifi:

ISIS heeft niets met Islam te maken ...is vooropgezet plan van zionisten die bewust Islam willen zwart maken

Which translated into English means roughly:

ISIS has nothing to do with Islam. It's a preconceived plan by Zionists who want to deliberately blacken Islam's name.

Who is Yasmina Haifi? She's an official at the Dutch Ministry of Justice who serves as project leader at the Netherlands' National Cyber Security Center. And she thinks Isis is a Zionist plot to make Islam look bad.

She could be right. On the other hand, maybe Yasmina Haifi is a Zionist plot to make Islam look bad - or at any rate deranged. Presumably the many Dutch Muslims out on the streets holding pro-Isis demonstrations would disagree with her - because they surely wouldn't be demonstrating in favor of a Zionist front group, would they? Unless, of course, they're also in on the Zionist plot...

Maybe they are just making Islam look like it is.

This is the stereotypical Muslim response to just about anything which discredits them. That it’s a Jewish and/or CIA plot. It’s their go-to rationale which allows them to repudiate shameful activities as not being the will of Allah, therefore they are not answerable for them.

It’s the same response liberals have to reality. It’s like the serve the same master.

Yup, making Islam look bad is a real challenge these days. Gotta get up extra early to start working on that one.

If this article is read in pari materia with CIA expert: Obama, Osama share Mideast goal which describes infiltration by the Muslim brotherhood into the Obama administration, one can conclude that we can either wait for demographic disaster or accept a fifth column within our midst but the ultimate dénouement will be the same.

The Muslims win by out populating us. White birthrates are down in most parts of the world. In some, we aren’t having enough babies to replace the death rate. The Muslims drop children like there’s no tomorrow. Much like the Latino population here. We are in a no win situation.

Although liberals do their own considerable destroying of civilization, they’re like people who watch termites eat the foundations of their house but are unwilling to do anything about it. “Those termites mean well....they’re products of nature just like us” say the libs to themselves. Then eventually after the termites have totally destroyed the lib’s house, the libs wonder how it all happened. If only they had tried to stop the termites from the outset. Too late by then.

I can barely stand to read Steyn anymore. Not that he isn't hammer-meet-nail brilliant as usual, but because I keep thinking the situation couldn't get any worse, but it does.

My most shameful reaction is the stray thought that I'm glad I'm old and (probably) won't live to see what will hit my sons.

But my more respectable reaction should be prayer and fasting.

Yes, I get a little ticked when he sits in for Rush. Love his thinking but he chuckles his way through the destruction of America. I just don’t see anything funny in it, anymore.
