Georgia State prof: ‘ISIS not coming after us,’ France attack ‘increases right-wing politics’
The College Fix ^ | 7/15/2016 | College Fix Staff

Posted on 07/15/2016 10:19:41 AM PDT by Hube

On CNN last evening, Georgia State professor Mia Bloom claimed that the terror group ISIS was not “coming after us,” and expressed concern that attacks like that in Nice, France yesterday increase the “degree of right-wing politics” and Islamophobia.

Bloom took issue with former CIA analyst Bruce Sexton whom she believed wasn’t aware that the majority of ISIS’s victims are Muslims.

“I do disagree with Mr. Sexton, because the fact is, and I’ll say this to you, Buck, directly, the vast majority of ISIS’ victims are Muslim. Not us. Not the West,” she said in a somewhat mocking tone.

As the Washington Free Beacon reports:

“I’m fully aware of that,” Sexton said. “No one disputes that.”

An animated Bloom took exception to Sexton earlier saying “they’re coming after us,” saying, “They’re not coming after us more than they’re coming after each other.”

“I was referring to the Islamic State, which very clearly through its external operations arm … along with al Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula which until recently was considered the most virulent and deadly of the jihadist terrorist organizations for this kind of external plotting, they’re continuing to do this,” he said. “Of course they’re killing Muslims.”

That's nothing, there's this other over-educated buffoon who thinks ISIS is "the JV team" - we call him President Obama.

Wonder if her opinion will change when she is sold into slavery or when she is thrown off a building and then beaten to death.

Denial is not a river in Egypt and it won’t protect you any more than a Gun Free Zone sign.

Attacks are OK. Right Wing Politics are bad.

What an utter moron.

ISIS is not coming after us.
ISIS has nothing to do with Islam.
Islam is a religion of peace.
Muslims are not a threat.
Submit or die.

I guess the guys in Boston intended for their bombs to harm only other muzzies... anyone else was “collateral damage”

To be fair, ISIS probably said so behind her back. They would have said it to her face, but their car only had 1/2 tank of gas.

“They’re not coming after us more than they’re coming after each other.”

Look, schweetheart. If they really do kill off more of their not-muslim-enough compatriots it's 'cause they're closer and more readily available.
So of course your hero-the-zero wants to load the US up with'em fast as he can. But don't worry yerself too much, I'm sure they'll treat you and your over-educated associates very special-like. d;^)

This woman is a certifiable moron. The fact that ISIS and pals kill a lot of other people does not in any way mean they don’t want to kill US.

Obviously they do kill many kinds of people in many different countries. It is no argument at all to say “well, they kill more Muslims.”

You truly can’t fix stupid.

Book smart, life stupid. And I question the first part.

"the majority of ISIS’s victims are Muslims."

Not so in the United States. Or in France.

I'm much less concerned about what happens in far-away lands than I am about what's happening down the street from my own house, or in some place that I actually might visit.

Anyone who thinks islamism is not a threat is either too stupid to live outside of an institution and should be locked in one for their own safety or is a traitor and should be shot.
