Wow Its not hard to see why so many people are beginning to miss Bush and why his new book, which portrays his aggressive and no-nonsense leadership approach to terrorism, is causing hearts all over America to yearn for that kind of leadership style again. Meanwhile, we now have a president who speaks more glowingly about Islam than he ever has about Christianity. And while weve had two years to get used to that fact, it still comes as a shock to listen to him refuse to condemn the term Jihad while in Mumbai.
The phrase Jihad has a lot of meanings within Islam. Um, and is subject to a lot of interpretations. I think all of us recognize that this great religion in the hands of a few extremists has been distorted to justify violence towards innocent people that is never justified.
This from our Commander In Chief. Shame.
(Side Note: Disregard the Will Smith observation at the end. Im not sure why that was included.)
BS!
I saw his response, I think our security is in danger.
Here’s the direct link to the video, independent of the blog:

He’s playing word games here... violence towards guilty people is just an bad, and who gets to decide innocence or guilt?
an=as
Dying in jihad is the only guaranteed way islam offers to get into that whore-house-in-the-sky they call paradise.
All Islamic Sharia Law and Theology is contained in the Trilogy (Koran 14%, Hadith 60% and Siras 26%)...most of violent and culturally abhorrent Islamic practice is denoted in the Hadith and Siras...no attention is paid to those seminal bodies and the public is left with the impression that the Koran is ALL of Islamic doctrine...the Koran is only a small part as not above.
That Koran book is the one that bothers me...Something about “converting the non believers to allah or kill them” that condemns all of them. The EXTREMELY loud silence of the moderate muslim adds to the condemnation.
It is muslims around the world that need to repair relations with America & the world.
You think?
He endorses Jihad. He also says America could absorb an attack.
How about multiples?
And he IS inviting it.
He favors the goals of jihad. The American people made a big mistake in Nov 2008.
Besides being a coward, Obamao labors under the liberal need to undo Anglo, English-Americanism and the world dominance of the white man, which he interprets as imperialism. His myopic, tunnel visioned, little brain can’t grasp the many complexities and advantages of Western civilization, and to him Jihad is the Islamic reaction to the perceived injustices of white Christians. His is a product of his indoctrination and the belief that white man is responsible for the world’s problems, and punishment by others, no matter who, is our comeuppance. A lot of liberals suffer from the same ignorance. It’s why they can’t see Islam for what it is.
According to this statement, we should just let them run over all of America killing and bombing where ever they see fit. Then we can all have Sharia law and the world will be at peace.
and who gets to decide innocence or guilt?
We all do. That's what thinking, rational, sane adults do. Is it really your contention that we, as Americans, shouldn't fight back against this outrage?
I think you totally misread what I wrote.
Obama SEEMS to be condemning the violence toward the innocent. However in the Islamic mind, we are infidels therefore we aren’t innocent.
Got it?
