Obama Bans Islam, Jihad From National Security Strategy Document
Fox News ^ | 4/7/2010 | Associated Press

WASHINGTON -- President Barack Obama's advisers will remove religious terms such as "Islamic extremism" from the central document outlining the U.S. national security strategy and will use the rewritten document to emphasize that the United States does not view Muslim nations through the lens of terror, counterterrorism officials said.

The change is a significant shift in the National Security Strategy, a document that previously outlined the Bush Doctrine of preventative war and currently states: "The struggle against militant Islamic radicalism is the great ideological conflict of the early years of the 21st century."

The officials described the changes on condition of anonymity because the document still was being written, and the White House would not discuss it. But rewriting the strategy document will be the latest example of Obama putting his stamp on U.S. foreign policy, like his promises to dismantle nuclear weapons and limit the situations in which they can be used.

Wait until the jihadis slaughter a few thousand more American citizens. Obama will have his foolish, misguided gestures shoved down his throat, like Obamacare.

we have an isane man at the helm and our ship is going down

I'm just about ready to let it sink, then form a Representative Republic from the salvageable timbers, if anyone can locate the blueprints for one. They are on a 234 year old piece of paper laying around somewhere, unused.

the answer is mainly the media. There is a lot of the population who gets their news/views from tv and/or print media, or from people who do.

Obastard’s Praetorian Guard in OUR Secret Service should be living up to their traditional method of dealing with a traitorous piece of crap dictator. “Et tu, Brucie”?

religious terms such as "Islamic extremism"

Islam is a deadly political ideology, one which seeks to rule the entire world, not just a "religion."

Which makes Obama's pretense that this isn't so deadly as well.

Would you use an accountant who got queasy about saying "tax"?

Zero does not like that word either. He was asked the other day if we are overtaxed and went on a 17 minute rambling "answer" without answering. Must have touched a nerve. Not too hard to do with Zero as he has a VERY thin skin.

Barack HUSSEIN Obama just pandering to those terrorists, again

Obviously Obama is a Kenyan Muslim....even his wife thinks so

Any so-called “conservative talk show host” who derides a caller for calling Obama a “Kenyan Muslim”....is on the side of Obama.
