Kerry: Violent extremism is not Islamic
Associated Press ^ | Jan 23, 2015 12:58 PM EST | Ken Dilanian

Violent extremists who are killing children and others in Iraq, Syria, Nigeria and other parts of the world may cite Islam as a justification, but the West should be careful about calling them Islamic radicals, Secretary of State John Kerry told an audience of opinion leaders Friday at the World Economic Forum.

In a speech calling for a global effort against violent extremism, Kerry said it would be a mistake to link Islam to criminal conduct rooted in alienation, poverty, thrill-seeking and other factors.

Kerry is getting his talking points from Jarrett via Obama.

The "violence isn't islamic" meme is all part of the plan.

With one hand they stab us infidels in the back and, with the other over their collective hearts, tell us the islam is the religion of peace.

They are actually pretty slick when using this tool.

Infidels adopt a battered wife attitude to muslims until they eventually convert us or kill us.

Hey, Kerry, violent islamic extremism isn't actually extremism.

It's just orthodox islam.

John Kerry ignores the fact Islamic terrorists kill in the name of Islam.

And Islamic terrorists have been upper middle class to wealthy.

He’s the stupidest man we’ve ever had for Secretary Of State. His Islam denial is right up there with his zeal for mythical climate change.

I realize it’s random, but two entries down from this thread is the headline: “ISIS executes 13 teens for watching soccer”. Sometimes you don’t even have to write anything.

Yet luminaries such as Whoopi Goldberg tell us that McVeigh was a Christian terrorist, and Christianity is held responsible on rare occasions of violence against abortion providers. All of Christianity especially evangelicals, are blamed for these incidents. Yet in Islam, we are not allowed to blame any elements of Islam for the violence done in the name of Islam.

I think the same article told the story of ISIS throwing men accused of homosexuality off a building to their deaths.

I never understand how liberals can gloss over Islamic treatment of women and homosexuals.

If you don’t recognize the enemy it is impossible to defeat them. “Extremism” is not a thing... Islam is.

” Kerry doesn’t know history.”

Sure he does.

He is a narcissist, a fraud, and a traitor.

Obama knows how to pick em.
