I'm a Blonde Tattooed Girl from Texas. Why are ISIS Fighters Tweeting Marriage Proposals to Me?
The New Republic ^ | October 3, 2014 | Jennifer Williams

Posted on 10/03/2014 8:19:57 PM PDT by Cecily

ast Monday, I had 60 followers on Twitter. Today, I have more than 4,300. Not to brag or anything, but that’s more than Benjamin Wittes; more than Bobby Chesney; more than Jack Goldsmith; more than my boss, Daniel Byman. But here’s the problem: A healthy number of them are Islamic extremists, including no small number of supporters of the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria (ISIS). A lot of them live in Saudi Arabia.

And some of them want to marry me.

The reason is a single tweet.

Early last week, the hashtag “#MuslimApologies” began trending on Twitter. The hashtag was a tongue-in-cheek response to those—such as right-wing radio host Laura Ingraham—who, in the wake of the beheadings of Westerners by ISIS, have questioned why Muslims have not been more vocal about denouncing terrorism carried out in the name of Islam (except that many have).

The last people on earth on whose radar I would want to be are Muslim lunatics, and there are millions of them. How can she retain any credibility in her field with this immature and potentially dangerous (to herself) Twitter nonsense? She may have to go into hiding before it’s all over. As we see daily, the fanatics don’t play, and here she is challenging these creeps over their interpretation of the Koran.

Big deal, I’m a fat beer bellied redneck who lives above the pizza palace in Hogjaw, and they try to hit on me too.

I’d hit that, but some stick already beat me to it.

I hope that whatever government agency employs this self-described “counterterrorism researcher” (or contracts with her private organization if that is her employment situation) is making sure that no sensitive means & methods are made known to this bubble-header “thinker”.

She’s not very bright if she really actually believes that she’s found a “religion of peace”.

When 100 of them finish raping you and cutting your head OFF, they’ll celebrate that you will not be having American babies.

The part of the article where she Twitters the picture of ISIS graffiti in the heart of DC is disturbing...

Maybe not every branch, but quite a few of them by the looks of it.

I especially love the head covered one, looks like a moslem sympathizer to me.

She should just head over, then report to us on how it’s going.

Putting on my best Levin voice, “Get a clue you moron. Are you too stupid to know that blondes are high priority in the sex slave trade?!” They love blondes and orientals. They sell for the highest prices and are a highly valued commodity among Islamic nations.”

Any western woman who actually converts to Islam is way past an idiot...

There must be some mental illness in play...

Joining up with the most misogynistic, women subjugating death cult on the planet...

Yeah, she is short a few marbles...

If you play with skunks your life starts to stink, plus the smell attracts other skunks.

I'm sure that this genius convert to Islam can go over and straighten them out on True Islam.

From the article:But I am Muslim. I also speak Arabic and hold a Master’s degree in International Security with a focus on terrorism and the Middle East. Several years ago, I realized that although I had long studied, analyzed, and written about Islamic political theory and how jihadist ideologues like Osama bin Laden use the Qur’an to justify their heinous acts of violence, I had never actually read the Qur’an. So I read it—and what I found in its pages changed my life. I found answers to questions about faith and belief and morality that had been plaguing me since my youth. I found the connection to God I thought I had lost. And three years ago, I converted to Islam.

Her theory is sound as far as it goes: Westernized, liberal Islam is the true Islam and ISIS is fake Islam. The problem is that she left out the fact that the rabble will always end up voting for Sharia over Westernized Islam in a democracy. So that leaves authoritarian Westernized Islam which always degrades into feeding political opponents into industrial shredders.
