Islam's Useful Idiots
American Thinker ^ | August 7, 2006 | Amil Imani

Posted on 08/21/2006 1:39:23 PM PDT by El Oviedo

Islam enjoys a large and influential ally among the non-Muslims: A new generation of “Useful Idiots,” the sort of people Lenin identified living in liberal democracies who furthered the work of communism. This new generation of Useful Idiots also lives in liberal democracies, but serves the cause of Islamofascism—another virulent form of totalitarian ideology.

Useful Idiots are naïve, foolish, ignorant of facts, unrealistically idealistic, dreamers, willfully in denial or deceptive. They hail from the ranks of the chronically unhappy, the anarchists, the aspiring revolutionaries, the neurotics who are at war with life, the disaffected alienated from government, corporations, and just about any and all institutions of society. The Useful Idiot can be a billionaire, a movie star, an academe of renown, a politician, or from any other segment of the population.

Arguably, the most dangerous variant of the Useful Idiot is the “Politically Correct.” He is the master practitioner of euphemism, hedging, doubletalk, and outright deception.

The Useful Idiot derives satisfaction from being anti-establishment. He finds perverse gratification in aiding the forces that aim to dismantle an existing order, whatever it may be: an order he neither approves of nor he feels he belongs to.

The Useful Idiot is conflicted and dishonest. He fails to look inside himself and discover the causes of his own problems and unhappiness while he readily enlists himself in causes that validate his distorted perception.

The media here in South , Ms is just about as bland and politically correct I don't even read the drivel anymore. I find their papers are better used to catch the droppings from my parrot.

I vote for all the Sunday morning shows as well "It's Americas fault" "We need to reach out more" etc.

It's a mess.

"With such a vast field to pick from, it should probably be a weekly."

Maybe Mr. Robinson can have a poll for the weekly Useful Idiot award.

My vote for this week is Olmert.

Personally, I believe that any lefty that is male should never be called a man.

Especially not this useless traitor.

The “moderate” mainstream of Islam has been outright genocidal from inception. Their own historians record that Ali, the first imam of the Shiite and the son-in-law of Muhammad, with the help of another man, beheaded 700 Jewish men in the presence of the Prophet himself. The Prophet of Allah and his disciples took the murdered men’s women and children in slavery. Muslims have been, and continue to be, the most vicious and shameless practitioners of slavery. The slave trade, even today, is a thriving business in some Islamic lands where wealthy, perverted sheiks purchase children of the poor from traffickers for their sadistic gratification.

I deduct the President was fully aware of this tid bit of information, when declaring the Islam a Religion of Piece[s], and only the radical factions of it are the one who declared war on the Western infidels and to the civilized world for that matter!

I will do further study on this meritous award. Meanwhile the fourth paragraph down caught my attention.

He finds perverse gratification in aiding the forces that aim to dismantle an existing order.....

I find it curious that all the forces of existing order, flawed as they may be, are used by the useful idiot. A nasty thug may eye him up and follow him- "police, police" he will squeak. He is cheated by some smooth artist- "get the law". I will sue him, cries he.

In fact, he thinks that he and his ilk, could smash the structure of society. Yet he thinks, his coffee latte and his fine meals, his local spotless super market would still be on tap. He figures the very electricity he uses appears by Aladdins lamp or something.

He lives in a vacuum.

There is always one at least who objects to where you post things. I am just glad you posted it.

Brilliant work.

Ok ok, I nominate most of the staff of CNN.

I now duck and run for cover. (Laughs).

Much of the respect Islam generates is the cheap type of respect any coward gives to a miserable bully who has proven himself volatile and dangerous. The "if we kiss his a$$, maybe he won't bother us" type of thinking.

BTW, Lenin called the western jerks that supported him "useful idiots." According to a KGB defector's book, the Kremlin's spy agency referred to them as "sh!t eaters." Very appropriate.

Sulzberger is dangerous, because he's the guy that sets policy at the NY Times, not Bill Keller.

Once again we have a guy who is handed the world on a plate and he uses his assets and position to damage the country that provided his family with so much.

The more I see of liberals, the more I'm convinced that liberalism truly is a mental disease.

How about Federal Judge Taylor who ruled that the surveillance program over terrorist phone calls into the US are unconstitutional? That idiot should be removed from the bench along with most of the federal judiciary that was appointed by that nitwit Jimmie Carter.
