A few hours before the catastrophic attack in Paris, President Obama had announced that ISIS was now “contained,†a recalibration of his earlier assessments of “on the run†and “Jayvees†from a few years back.
In the hours following the attack of jihadist suicide bombers and mass murderers in Paris, the Western press talked of the “scourge of terrorism†and “extremist violenceâ€. Who were these terrorists and generic extremists who slaughtered the innocent in Paris — anti-abortionists, Klansmen, Tea-party zealots?
This sickness in the West manifests itself in a variety of creepy ways — to hide bothersome reality by inventing euphemisms and idiocies likely “workplace violence†and “largely secular,†jailing a “right-wing†video maker rather than focusing on jihadist killers in Benghazi, deifying a grade-school poseur inventor who repackaged a Radio Shack clock and wound up winning an invitation to the White House, straining credibility in Cairo to fabricate unappreciated Islamic genius.
Are these the symptoms of a post-Christian therapeutic society whose affluence and leisure fool it into thinking that it has such a huge margin of security that it can boast of its ‘tolerance’ and empathy — at the small cost of a few anonymous and unfortunate civilians sacrificed from time to time? Is deterrence a waning asset that has now been exhausted after seven years of Obama administration apologetics and contextualizations?

The Left is going to get us all killed
Mark Steyn is right (as usual) when he calls it collective suicide.
Bkmrk.
don’t you worry — Hillary will fix things up.
Should tell all Moslems here…..if anyone in your community is involved in radical behavior your family and all friends will be deported…if anyone in your family is on such websites you most tell the FBI…if not and the FBI finds out you will be deported…if your son goes to the Middle East the whole family will be deported..ect..
here….. what causes this???
Apparently my DT computer is too locked down to go to NR.
To preserve our sense of progressive utopianism, we seem willing to offer up a few hundred innocents each year to radical Islam. The slaughter might cease in a few years if we were to name our enemies as radical Muslims and make them aware that it could well be suicidal for their cause to kill a Westerner - or at least remind the Islamic world in general that it is a rare privilege to migrate to the West, given that immigration demands civic responsibilities as well as rights and subsidies, and is predicated on legality rather than the power of the stampede.But then to do that we would no longer be Westerners as we now define ourselves.
Then it's time to revert to how we defined ourselves in the past.
The Gods of the Copybook Headings will not long be abandoned.
The stupid "war on terror" ended before it even began.
Victor Davis Hanson thread below:
“Hundreds of thousands flock to Europe not in gratitude at its hospitality but largely contemptuous of those who would be so naive to extend their hospitality to those who hate them.”
Another good point he makes, the bodies are still on the slabs and we are already seeing our own left-wing idiots, the Mahers, The Nation, I’ve even run across one here clucking with concern about the response of the West:
“Oh, we don’t want to be too harsh ...”
It’s no wonder the savages have contempt for us.
These people are hopeless. I don’t claim them as countrymen. These are the same DU types that began taunting Bush as a chimpanzee while we were still digging out of the rubble and rescuing bodies in the winter of 2001.
Dubya’ s advisors were feeding him bogus info about Islam. Wonder if it was deliberate
And we will bulldoze your f-ing mosque to the ground.
The real greatest threat in Obama's opinion is free enterprise, but he can't come out and say that, so he invokes the excuse for destroying free enterprise, which is global warming.
Haven’t you heard? They’re still mad about that YouTube video.
"The English translation is not as eloquent as the original Arabic, but let me quote from the Koran, itself: 'In the long run, evil in the extreme will be the end of those who do evil. For that they rejected the signs of Allah and held them up to ridicule.' The face of terror is not the true faith of Islam. That's not what Islam is all about. Islam is peace."
Are you saying he never even read the Koran before quoting it? LOL.
Microsoft software concepts that are more complicated than the intellect of its authors. Modern software is just "too much gun" for simple jobs.
“don’t you worry — Hillary will fix things up.”
The islamofascists will all self-deport so they don’t have to see her face or hear her voice.
W is too stupid to figure stuff out for himself? Cheney thinks Islam is not a threat?
Saudi Arabia runs Bush 41?
