Instinctively, the mainstream media went into its now-familiar coverage template, Phase One of which avoids like the plague any mention of the fact that accused terrorists are Muslims.

I certainly appreciate the points made in this article, but, speaking for myself, I don't need to be told they're Muslims. As soon as I read or hear "plot to bomb [fill in the civilian target here]," I know they're islamofascists.

The Canadian police CAUGHT them? Maybe they weren't trying too hard to hide.

A half dozen people were killed every year on 3-wheel ATV's, so they were banned from the market in the US.
You can no longer smoke outside on a sidewalk in a lot of places for fear someone walking past may get a whiff of smoke.
Yet this looming threat of mass destruction and murder (Islam) is allowed to fester and breed while being protected by the PC.
Liberalism, not Islam, is currently the single largest threat to the American way of life. The parasites could not survive without the host.

Just in from the blogosphere- the picture says it all:

Toronto Star: Hard to Find a Common Denominator

LGF reader WriterMom emailed a scan of page A3 of Sunday’s Toronto Star, featuring a classic case of willful blindness:

Muslim Women? "Little Penguins in Bondage..."

"Just try walking into an American courtroom with your hat on. Bailiffs exist to tell people in no uncertain terms to "take your hat off!"  To think they allow these "women" to go into a courtroom in their ghost outfits just blows my mind. "

Last night on Glen Beck's show there was a very interesting new spin on Islamic Terrorism, offered by the inventive spokesman from some Muslim group whose name I can't recall.

In essence, his one-note argument was that we (kuffars and infidels) should not use the term "Islamic Terrorism" or "Islamic Terrorists" because it gives tacit legitimacy to the desire of terrorists to be identified as Islamist Terrorists.

The spokesman did not say what they should be called. Perhaps the NY Times can help him with a neutral identifier.

If we are not allowed to talk about the problem, we will not be able to solve it.
