Theresa May says ‘Islamist’ Westminster Attack ‘Not Islamic’
Breitbart ^ | 3/23/17 | Liam Deacon

Posted on 03/23/2017 10:24:33 AM PDT by Impala64ssa

The Prime Minister has said the “Islamist” attack on Parliament was not “Islamic” and Islam is a “great faith”.

Taking on the role of a theologian, Theresa May insisted: “It is wrong to describe this as Islamic terrorism. It is Islamist terrorism. It is a perversion of a great faith.”

Speaking in Parliament, she also said the attack showed “the importance of all of our faiths working together, and recognising the values that we share”.

Adding: “This act of terror was not an act of faith. It was a perversion; a warped ideology, which leads to an act of terrorism like that and it will not prevail.”

Islamism is generally defined as a political interpretation of Islam. Some critics argue Islam is intrinsically political – as the Quran mandates a religious state and law – and say the term is irrelevant.

MPs almost unanimously agreed with the Prime Minister, lining up to warn against “demonising” and “stigmatising” Muslims, and to condemn “Islamophobia” and “racial and religious” discrimination.

Khalid Mahmood, the Labour MP for Birmingham Perry Barr, said the attacker or attackers “pretend to be of a particular religion”.

“If they were of a religion they would not be carrying out acts like this,” he added.

“If they were of a religion they would not be carrying out acts like this”


Would that apply to “Christian” Crusades? Color me confused.

This denial has become a menace. I am absolutely right when I tell you that this is mental illness. It is a “defense” mechanism to lose reality rather that admit you were were stupid and it has now cost lives. She needs to be removed as unfit mentally. This is a religious war against the 6 billion who don’t believe in islam and the 6 billion need to start fighting it. How many innocent people must die?

What a liar. Truth is the ONLY thing which will set us free. She better return her country BACK to Truth-—that which created Common Law and the Parliament system, etc.

Islam is an irrational, vile “faith” which makes slaves of unbelievers. There is no free will, no wisdom, no individualism allowed-—that which is necessary for freedom. Either the West returns to its roots, or it will commit suicide and become a totalitarian hellhole like the countries where muslims and democrats dominate—and communists and collective “tribal”, non-think cultures where they have Vice Systems-—never a “justice” system. Justice is the Queen of virtue in the West—and virtue can’t exist without freedom and free will-—in the evil, vile islamic culture which is taking over Europe and American universities.

She's absolutely right there. Islam IS NOT a religion. It's a theocratic system of laws and rules imposed by force on anyone and everyone that is under the control of this fake religion of perversion and ideology.

How many times do we have to hear stupid politicians defend islam immediately after moslum terrorist slaughter innocent people? We know liberals want us to think islam is peaceful but they look ridiculous trying to do it while the blood of the innocent still stains the streets.

“Who’s the fool, the fool who says such things, or the fool who believes it?”
Sounds like something Obi-Won Kenobi used to say.

The West is wholly unprepared and unwilling to destroy these savages.

It is a sad ugly truth.

"They’re done. "

They started their downward spiral when they adopted national health care. Their joining the EU, and allowing untold muzzies and immigrants to come into their country has simply escalated their demise.

If the western leaders didn’t make excuses for Islamists, then maybe the Imam’s would face pressure to clean up their act.

What a stupid thing to say on many levels for many reasons.

I think two total wars back to back killed off too many of their best and brightest. Now they are breeding off of culls.
