Extremists, myass.
The US State departments’ (I will bring it up once more) recent announcement of eschewing officially the terms ‘jihad, jihadist, muhahadeen, islamofascist, etc., is a pseudo-effective policy, in fact, it is an extremely destructive policy. Our policymakers, they forget Neville Chamberlain and Hitler. The immediate compliance within hours of the new directive by the House panel on Darfur on C Span 2 last week was pathetic...all parties on the panel, including those giving testimonials, avoided these terms to a man (Negroponte, Mendez, Boxer, the US rep to Darfur)...the term substituted for all these terms was..’BAD ACTORS’...pathetic. ‘Extremists’ was too severe a term for the Dem panelists, and, the persons giving testimony. ‘Bad Actors’ has been adopted as the first attempt at using new terminology, AND IT IS A FATALLY WEAK, STUPID SUBSTITUTE. The Sec. of State, is now playing a ‘piano piece’ of policy called ‘The Death March of the West’. The fact that ‘Bad Actors’ is the first recognizable compliant effort of govt. officials should be widely disseminated. It will not be. Only some Freepers will notice it.
