You beat me by a second or two: I was going to reference the same thing.

All the logic of a six-year-old at daycare: “HE STARTED IT!”

A silver lining in this cloud is that more people seem to becoming aware that the Crusades were an ultimately failed defensive war against the scourge of moslem murder, rape, conquest, plunder, and pillage (the five true pillars of islam).

We should use an Obama tactic.

Double down spreading the word about the Religion of Hatred that has infiltrated our country.

Free people do not allow Islam any foothold in their country.

That aside, Obama’s argument is based on the lie that the Western world was wrong in launching the Crusades. In fact, the aggressor was Islam and the Crusaders simply responded to the attacks perpetrated against Christians.

Off topic, please allow me just for a moment...when did “because of” become “because”? When did “in the hospital” become “in hospital”? When did “make a decision” become “take a decision”? End of interruption...sorry...thank you.

That’s pretty common on the left.
What they really want to “prove” is that the standard by which their opponents are judging their behavior is invalid.

And they “prove” that the standard is invalid because those who hold that standard often fail to live up to it.

It’s a rejection of objective truth, and this is a deeply engrained assumption in the leftist worldview - that there is no objective truth or standard.

(Because if such an objective standard exists, it has to be outside of human definition, and therefore God exists and will judge everyone by that standard.)

You’re trying to apply a standard of speech to talk about a rejection of a standard of behavior...:)

Oh, it’s much worse than that. I wasn’t even referring to the article, just to our society in general.

Figured it out. I’m old and having trouble adjusting to the changes around me.

The left would say it was an “evolution of language” when it is, in fact, a degradation of language.
