Loretta Lynch: ‘Most effective’ response to Islamic terrorism ‘is love’
Washington Times ^ | June 21, 2016 | Douglas Ernst

Posted on 06/21/2016 2:35:14 PM PDT by rdl6989

Attorney General Loretta Lynch told Florida’s LGBT community that the “most effective” weapon at America’s disposal against Islamic terrorism is “love.” Mrs. Lynch told reporters in Orlando on Tuesday that an ongoing investigation will determine the precise motive for 29-year-old Omar Mateen’s June 12 massacre at Pulse, a gay nightclub. Mateen, a former security guard, called 911 and pledged allegiance to the Islamic State group while killing 49 people and wounding 53 others.

Show ISIS love?

Try snuggling up to a rattlesnake and see if it will respond in kind.

Another attempt to obfuscate by throwing up a smoke screen. Obama is running out the clock thinking he won’t have to do anything to harm ISIS.

I prefer some variant of “get thee behind me Satan.”

Ah, but there's a profound difference here — in Peter's case he's saying This shall never happen to you! (concerning the Crucifixion, the whole reason for Jesus's presence on Earth) — in this case it's more akin to Caiaphas in John 11:

But one of them, Caiaphas, who was high priest that year, said to them, “You know nothing at all! You do not understand that it is better for you to have one man die for the people than to have the whole nation destroyed.” He did not say this on his own, but being high priest that year he prophesied that Jesus was about to die for the nation, and not for the nation only, but to gather into one the dispersed children of God. So from that day on they planned to put him to death.

Islamic terrorists get news reports. What do you think they are thinking? What she said was a stroke of genius. This whole mess can be cleared up in a jiffy. John Kerry can fly into Mosel with Tiny Tim who can sing his rendition of “What The World Needs Now is Love.”

Well, no. She's saying she loves the gays and that's her response to terror.

I know it doesn't make sense. How is accepting gays going to stop terror attacks?

But she's not telling people to love the terrorists. Lynch left out the "Islamic" part entirely. That's something the article writer threw in.

First, I have to wonder if this Attorney General has actually been the FIRST close member of Obama’s inner circle to actually say “Islamic Terrorism” in anything close to a policy speech. Given that she also claims (elsewhere) that they are spending much effort in determining the actual means and motives for this massacre, I am not too certain about this “Islamic Terrorism” being a real quote.

Second, I wonder if AG Lynch realizes that ‘love’ is worthless without an object to be ‘loved!’ So whom does she think should be loved in this case? Really, when you ask this question, it shows the speech to be pure pablum, fed to the sheeple.

“most effective” weapon at America’s disposal against Islamic terrorism is “love.”

This would carry some weight with me if I’d seen her employ it with respect to, say, conservatives.

Big bunch of celebs now getting together to make a recording to honor the dead in Orlando - “What the World Needs Now Is Live” - wonder if they’ll include their implied second stanza - “As Long As You love the Same People I Love”.....

She needs to tell Obama that he needs to disarm his SS guards and have them carry flowers instead. Then maybe I will take this idiotic person and idiotic statement serious.
