Political Correctness: "Allah Akbar!" cheered Egyptian Muslims while trampling the remains of dozens of Christians eviscerated in last Friday's suicide bombing. Yet we're assured that the phrase has nothing to do with Islam.
Video taken at the gruesome scene outside a church in Alexandria, Egypt, clearly shows local rubberneckers whooping it up as they shout "Allah Akbar!" Arabic for "Allah is greatest!" We heard the same celebratory chant from Palestinians and other Muslims around the world as the Twin Towers burned.
The list of Islamic terrorists heard shouting the phrase before launching attacks is long. The 9/11 hijackers themselves screamed "Allah Akbar!" before crashing their planes. More recently, Army Maj. Nidal Malik Hasan was heard crying "Allah Akbar!" before massacring 13 fellow soldiers at Fort Hood.
Never mind all that, say apologists intent on separating Islam from terror. The expression is benign, they insist.
"The guy who gets up on the plane and says 'Allah!' or whatever and then blows the plane up is not making a statement about his faith," American-Arab Anti-Discrimination Committee head James Zogby said last year, speaking to congressional staffers.
Zogby says it's more an expression of frustration, like Christians blurting out their Savior's name after accidently hammering their thumb. "Somebody says 'Jesus Christ!' they're not making a statement of faith," he explained. "They're saying, I'm really mad right now."
The comparison is absurd.

I now expect a stream of Zogby polls that show Palin to be unelectable, Romney to be a shoe-in, and that the American people want compromise and bipartisanship.
I don’t enjoy suffering in others but if James Zogby went to a pro-Arab meeting and a terrorist stuck a knife in his ribs yelling, “Die stinking infidel” I would have a chuckle over it.
I was waiting for Rosie O’Donnell to show up in that, and I wasn’t disappointed.
The Zogby’s and another humdinger I mentioned in this thread, George Habash, might be among the most dangerous “Christians” I’ve ever heard of. Because they hang out with Muslims and sympathize with them.
George might be dead and if so, good riddance.
I would too... then I would pray for forgiveness... but not before doing a little tiny Snoopy dance.

Holder is guilty of treason, and belongs in jail ......just like almost all of Obama “appointees”
The idiocy of Muslim-Islamofascist-sharia-jihadist-madresses spokespeople, the terrorists themselves with their bloody excuses and people like James Zogby, CAIR is just too much for intellectual, spiritual clarity. It is indeed a LIE from the Pit of Hell. There is no good Islamofascist but a dead one James. Oh that you would say that and the so called moderate Muslims too.
Well, considering that Eric Holder only has been hanging with the liberal crowd for most of his life, it's not really surprising and technically is not wrong - he knows and understands his America, "his nation" only too well - they are cowards hiding their cowardice under the guise of "political correctness" and similar "cultural Marxism" slogans.
