Kristof may have just skunked Obama’a campaign for the presidency. Re the lint that “but a president is less likely to stereotype Muslims as fanatics - and more likely to be aware of their NATIONALISM - if he once studied the Koran with them”,
Holy crap, Batman. So Islam is not about “a religion of peace”; it is about plain old “Nationalism”, the cause of most of the wars in the past several hundred years.
Let’s see: A nationalistic Iran; a nationalistic Egypt; a nationalistic Palestine; a nationalistic Sudan; etc. Oh, that explains the genocide, dhimmitude, slavery, murder, and schools for terrorism. It is “nationalism” that drives this, not “religion.”
Oh, I’m so sorry. We had it backwards.
I guess the Crusades were about “nationalism” and should be given a pass by the Moslem world, which, according to the Gospel of St. Kristof, is what the Moslems are about themselves.
Gee, when Sheik Khalid Mohammed slit Daniel Pearl’s throat and cut off his head (and the same for Nick Berg and the others in Iraq), it was for “nationalism.” Then what was all that crap about it being done for Allah and the world’s Moslems?
So killing Jews and Christians is only about “nationalism”, not a religious conflict.
Thanks Kristof, you just made the world understandable.
The Moslems are “just depraved because they are deprived” of nationalism. Jihad, Jihad, Jihad!!!!
