The vast majority of Muslims in Germany condemn the attack on Charlie Hebdo in Paris. But they are concerned that a new wave of Islamophobia may wash over the country anyway. […]

Germany has experienced a fundamental shift, from a republic that sought to keep immigrants at arm’s length to one that is now the second-most attractive immigrant country after the United States. But societal cohesion is currently being tested. The anti-immigration, Islamophobic protests in Dresden organized by PEGIDA have shown that there is still a significant amount of angst about foreigners in Germany and the Paris attacks have triggered fear that it could happen at home. “Everyone is unsettled,” says Bilkay Öney, minister of integration in the state of Baden-Württemberg. “Both Muslims and non-Muslims.” …

Among these ‘worried German Muslims” are the three who heard two local German youth on Christmas Day drunkenly yelling “Merry Christmas!” over and over. This in a muslim section of town. What happened next? Two muslims of that neighborhood ran up to the singing, German youths, and stabbed them in their heads, before running off yelling (what else?) Allah Akbar! The two boys survived.
I think any ‘backlash’ is long overdue.

I hope the Germans fumigate their entire country and rid themselves of their islamo-problem. But IMO they are too far gone and brainwashed by the perversion of diversity.

Yup.

That’s why nobody cared about the alleged “blasphemous burial at sea.”

OBL had what?
A dozen doubles?

The whole think stank to heaven, especially Obeyme’s suspiciously timed “I got him” interruption crap during prime time.

You’d think the enraged Repubs who knew better would have called him on it.

Oh wait, never mind.

Well, I can see you're not fooling yourself in the least.

There are NO LONGER two parties.

I keep saying we have a ONE PARTY system performing a non-stop version of Kabuki theater.

Kabuki theater, by the way, if you're not familiar, is the Japanese version of "song & dance" theater.

Well aware of Kabuki theater and have referred to our alleged two party system as such, myself.

It was quite some time ago, that I disavowed myself of such delusions.

Probably some time shortly after Reagan.

Some think I’m a cynic but I consider myself a realist.

:-\

I personally feel we’ve been in an endless loop of Hegelian Dialectic for decades.

They let us believe our votes make any difference and then switch “sides” every so often so that we don’t lapse into total despair.

For some of us, it’s not working.

Like clockwork, each Muslim atrocity is accompanied by a chorus of Muslims expressing concern that Muslims will face an Islamophobic backlash. Leftists instantly join in the condemnation of those who might retaliate against Muslims even though no one ever does, the media spends more time fretting about this non-existent problem than on the actual Muslim atrocity, Muslims get to keep playing the victim even though they're the ones victimizing others, Leftists get to blame Westerners for crimes they never commit, and the actual victims of violence are forgotten.

It is instructive to read this article to learn how the left wins elections and certainly wins the women's vote.

Notice how the Muslims in this article are personalized representing the reverse face of Saul Alinsky's coin to personalize one's enemy, demonize him and destroy him. This face of the coin shows a propaganda practice in which a leftist cause is personalized, the person is beatified, and always sympathetic and usually portrayed as a heroic victim.

Notice further the nuances which border on the soap opera calculated to enlist feminine sympathy. How could anyone be against these people and still hold his head up in polite society? This is how movies are made and this is how Hollywood shapes our conscious and unconscious attitudes, witness the campaign on behalf of homosexuals in virtually every TV series today.

Until we learn how to ridicule this tactic we will continue to lose propaganda wars. Ann Coulter is very good at that job and it helps that she is a feminine voice but she is entirely too lonely at the forefront.

We are portrayed as Archie Bunkers while leftists are portrayed as Saints. If we wonder why we lose at the ballot box perhaps we should look at TV box, the women's magazines, soap operas, and even at news sources.

There is a difference between persecution and self defense.

oh...now it’s time to play The Victim - in order to get more rights and time to build a terrorist element that will launch far more devastating attacks in the near future...

...this is a tactic seen too many times in Iraq and Afghanistan...they are buying time to consolidate and strengthen their position...unless the rats are cleaned out now...the infestation will only grow!

Exactly.

Islam is a war plan.

The contrived word, “islamafobia,” or, “islamophobia,” is an example of how the left tries and succeeds in controlling the language. The true term is, “islam, don’t want you here.”

Just as there is a difference between a building collapse brought about by metal fatigue and one demolished by a plane being flown into it.

Indeed. The seeds of our destruction were planted when women (always slightly numerically superior) were give the franchise without a commensurate Constitutional provision exempting the subjective or objectively disprovable from “free speech” protection.

Conservative women could start running free youtube PSA’s warning women about the horrors of life in islamic virtual slavery, from FGM to permissable beatings to being stoned to death for being raped and accusing the rapist. They would not have to hammer Islam explicitly to be calibrated to turn women solidly against Islam. I don’t know why nobody is creating or promoting such videos. At least, I haven’t seen them. Isis head chopping videos cause women to just turn away and block out the information. They need to be more subtle, less gross/explicit, and just discuss FGM, beatings, rape attitudes etc.
