Kerry tells Western leaders it would be an 'error' to refer to violent extremists as Islamists

Violent extremists 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.

'We have to keep our heads,' Kerry said, according to the Associate Press.

'The biggest error we could make would be to blame Muslims for crimes...that their faith utterly rejects,' he added.

How funny is that? He’s afraid of losing his head? Who is going to cut it off...one of the Muslim Brotherhood creeps in the White House?

They don’t have Kerry by the short hairs. They have him by the head.

Obama and Kerry adhere to the one world/no borders ideology of the Left. The inconvenient fact that Islamic culture is simply not compatible with Western values and practices is not something they are capable of accepting. Hence Obama and Kerry are making ridiculous public contortions which beside making them look silly, blind them to reality and lead to disastrous policies such as signing a flawed “historic agreement” with lunatic mullahs.

Liberals and their enablers ARE evil and thus have no problem with it. They see it as the preferred state of being.

This is so irrational that it suggests that some rich sheik has conditions giant campaign donations.

Rich Sheik: “Look. We will give through a third party $20 million to the Democrats, but only if you stop referring to terrorists as Muslims.”

Obama: “No problem!”

When Islamic terrorists unleash their attacks, they make sure to yell, ‘’Allahu Akbar!’’ so that everyone will know they’re ISLAMIC terrorists. They’re very proud of that fact.

So it’s a serious slight to Islamic terrorists for John Kerry to insist on calling them ‘’extremists’’ when they go out of their way to make sure everyone knows what religion they’re killing people in the name of.

It’s as if John Kerry invited someone named Mohammed to his home for dinner and then served him pork roast. What would Mohammed think? That John Kerry was too stupid to understand that someone named after the prophet Mohammed must be Muslim and therefore was restricted from eating pork? Or that John Kerry was a complete schm**k who refused to acknowledge Mohammed’s religion and purposely insulted him by serving him food that he knew Muslims couldn’t eat?

If Islamic terrorists wanted to be called ‘’extremists’’ to hide their religion and infiltrate countries they wanted to destroy, they would change their names, for example, from Mohammed to Kerry, just as John Kerry’s own immigrant Jewish grandfather once changed his name from Cohn to Kerry to hide his religion so that his grandson would have a better chance to become a U.S. Secretary of State and destroy his country as he’s doing now.

Someone needs to get in Kerry's face and ask him this: If terrorism has nothing to do with Islam, then why is it that terrorists always yell "Allahu Ackbar" at the moment they pull the trigger?

What Kerry, Obama, and the rest of the spineless, apologist left are doing, just pisses me off so much, I can hardly speak coherently. These abject cowards are actually encouraging more terrorist attacks with their policy of appeasement and denial.
