Homeland chief: Fort Hood shootings no cause for anti-Muslim backlash

ABU DHABI, United Arab Emirates — The U.S. Homeland Security secretary says she is working to prevent a possible wave of anti-Muslim sentiment after the shootings at Fort Hood in Texas.

Janet Napolitano says her agency is working with groups across the United States to try to deflect any backlash against American Muslims following Thursday’s rampage by Army Maj. Nidal Malik Hasan, a Muslim who reportedly expressed growing dismay over the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan.

The shootings left 13 people dead and 29 wounded.

Napolitano was in the United Arab Emirates on Sunday for talks with security officials and a meeting with women university students in Abu Dhabi.

Easy enough for him to say but what about the linked interview about the Islamic visitor to the shooter's digs?

Only found on one posting but linked here.

We don’t need massacres to justify anti-Muslim “backlash”. Islam is a repellent totalitarian system (not a religion) with the stated goal of using violence to subjugate and forcibly convert non-adherents. Resistance to this anti-Western system must be commensurate with the threat, which is total.

How about you work to prevent attacks by Muslims, hmmmm? Instead, normal Americans become targets of your wrath for possibly having [***gasp***] impure thoughts about Islam.

Do you know what's going to cause an anti-Muslim backlash? Blaming ordinary Americans, like Janet Napolitano is doing. The problem for the elites is America and Americans. In spite of Muslims murdering Americans from NY to LA and seemingly every week another plot by Muslims to murder Americans is broken up, the problem is the reaction by Americans to murder and being targeted for murder.

Let's see, we're racists if we want to secure the borders from invasion by tens of millions of illegal aliens. We're homophobes, if we don't go along with the latest liberal fad of legally recognized homosexual marriage. We want sick people to die quickly, if we don't go along with the biggest power grab in American History.

I've been fed up with this for years and I think that critical mass is being reached among ordinary Americans. Just ask Rep. Scozzafava, Gov. Corzine and Creigh Deeds.

What's the public response going to be to organized anti-Semitic, pro-terrorist protests on university campi?

Too bad this rampage did not take place in the District of Criminals.

I think that's the only thing that will get their attention.

They are traitors.

The Mohammedans want to overcome us and present us with the options Mohammedans have offered all peoples they have conquered: Conversion, Slavery, or Death. Many will die anyway, because the Mohammedans love death. They love killing. They kill each other daily. It serves their demonic deity.

Well, it appears that we cannot count on the US Homeland Security Agency to protect our country; nor can we count on our president to protect our country or support our troops who are trying valiantly to do that very thing in far off crapholes. Our leaders are failing us citizens, both military and civilian, and it's becoming more apparent with each day that dawns, we are pretty much on our own.

Message to Janet Napolitano, Barack Hussein Obama, and their islamofascist buddies:

I will not submit.

Maybe it is no cause to be anti muslim, but it certainly adds to my list of many reasons to be anti Islam. Nobody will ever convince me that Islam is anything but murderous cult belief system.

I must have missed her plea for no backlash against pro-lifers when Tiller was shot.

Here’s a link to a web site from another video on youTube while chasing this story http://www.revolutionmuslim.com/ They send get well wishes to the vile muslim major & have several videos. We have indeed “home grown” terrorist groups here in America and they are indeed Muslim. All I ever needed to learn about Islam I learned on 9-11. May they ALL drown in pig pi$$. Like 0bama said “I will side with the muslims”
