Interpol, the international law enforcement cooperation organization with 188 member states, has explicitly warned Americans to not provoke terrorists this September 11th, the ninth anniversary of the terrorist attacks on the United States mainland by the Muslim terrorist group al Qaeda.
The warning was made as part of a statement requested by Pakistan that was issued Thursday by Interpol regarding the global threat of violent reaction by Muslims to the planned burning of Korans this Saturday by a small, formerly obscure Christian church in Gainesville, Florida that is seeking to draw attention to the evil, violent nature of radical Islam. However, Interpol did not issue a similar warning asking Muslims to not engage in terrorism in response to the protest.
Interpol Secretary General Ronald K. Noble singled out Americans for a special admonition in the statement:
"September 11 is a day when the world should come together to redouble our efforts to prevent and fight terrorism, not a day when any individual, especially an American, should engage in provocative acts that will give terrorists propaganda intended to convert September 11 from a day of remembrance, to one of recruitment for terrorists and others inspired to attack the US and other western targets."
Noble appeased Muslims while belittling the protest by the Dove World Outreach Center and its leader Pastor Terry Jones:
"Pakistans actions in contacting INTERPOL to ensure that potentially vital information in helping police identify and prevent any form of terror attack is circulated worldwide are to be commended, and the reaction of INTERPOL and others around the world in response to this planned hateful act should be seen by the Muslim community as strong evidence that this man and his small congregation stand alone."
Interpol fails to appreciate that the simple act of breathing by Americans is a provocative act to Islamic terrorists. Its focus should be on thwarting terrorism, rather than on First Amendment protected activities by American citizens.
Do not provoke terrorists?....
O.K....when I’m at Wal-Mart I will look the other way....
Awesome. Maybe it’s time to fly the Crusader cross along with the Gadsden flag.
And our very own president doesn’t even defend the USA.
He takes the side of muslim jihadists.
Be seeing you...
As he promised he would.
Did you notice that there was not a single mention of his former gig at Treasury, his marriage to Hillary's COS, or the fact that he was dragged through the mud in the Waco thing.
Stuff goes down the memory hole way too fast to suit me.
