Georgia State prof: ‘ISIS not coming after us,’ France attack ‘increases right-wing politics’

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.”

CNN still scratching their head wondering what the motives are and why.

This is such BS:

First they came for the Socialists, and I did not speak out—
Because I was not a Socialist.

Then they came for the Trade Unionists, and I did not speak out—
Because I was not a Trade Unionist.

Then they came for the Jews, and I did not speak out—
Because I was not a Jew.

Then they came for me—and there was no one left to speak for me.

Mis Bloo’s brain is M I A.

From what I could gather, so is her social life. Fortunately for mankind, she is nearly beyond the bounds of reproducing.

[Hoffer Rand]

Somebody should ask Mia if she locks her doors to her house or her car. After all, crooks, rapists, thieves, etc. aren’t coming after her any more than they are anybody else.

Only Islamaphobes think that the Islamic State is Islamic or has anything to do with Muslims.

Dear Mia:

You are officially irrelevant.

Your thoughts and words and feelings have been found to be wrong.

Perhaps you can find a job more in line with your talents.....like carnival barker.

Love and kisses!

Or a brick wall, blindfold and a cig.

How long must we suffer these fools?

“They”, meaning “ISIS”, are not coming after us, is an exercise in “whack-a-mole”. It signs on to the “terrorist group of the hour” syndrome. And allows people to, like our President, to court organizations like the Muslim Brotherhood, while pointing out “those really bad guys”, ISIL.

We are going to be in trouble as long as our leaders and the talking heads are unwilling to admit that Islam is at the root of all of this terrorism and violence.

Not all Muslims are bad, but MOST of the bad guys are Muslim. And those bad folks are definitely “after us”. Just because they don’t get along with each other and don’t play well together is a side issue.

And Bloom is an idiot or a tool, or both!!

I didn’t read all of the responses, but I’m certain I’m not the only one to reference the mental disease business we generally attribute to these Liberal morons.

Proof positive.

Buck Sexton?

Obviously not his real name. It's his porn star name.

[colorado tanker]

I’m sure it makes the loved ones of the French dead feel better that these vermin also kill Muslims.

“Victorious warriors win first and then go to war, while defeated warriors go to war first and then seek to win” ― Sun Tzu, The Art of War

“All warfare is based on deception. Hence, when we are able to attack, we must seem unable; when using our forces, we must appear inactive; when we are near, we must make the enemy believe we are far away; when far away, we must make him believe we are near.” ― Sun Tzu, The Art of War

“If your enemy is secure at all points, be prepared for him. If he is in superior strength, evade him. If your opponent is temperamental, seek to irritate him. Pretend to be weak, that he may grow arrogant. If he is taking his ease, give him no rest. If his forces are united, separate them. If sovereign and subject are in accord, put division between them. Attack him where he is unprepared, appear where you are not expected .” ― Sun Tzu, The Art of War
