As I read the other day:
If islam is a religion of peace, why aren’t islamic extremists extremely peaceful?
At the core of every liberal position, there is a great lie. Political correctness is willful self delusion. Engaging leftists with logic is futile. Their mindset is inherently irrational. They believe the lies.
because medieval Christians did bad things a thousand years ago?”
Moreover...if you look at why they did all those bad things...you will see that it is b/c they were defending themselves from ....Islam....
Jonah, Jonah, Jonah,
Really? You know the answer to “Why does the Left Continue to Insist that Islamic Terrorism Has Nothing to Do with Islam?” as well as I do. One little five letter word.
V O T E S
Muslims are as reliable Democrat voters as blacks. But really, you knew that long before you started to compose this column.
Lot of politicians are beholding to Saudi Arabia or Kuwait or whatever cause they be bought and paid for.
Hey Jonah, Why do you still support RINOs?
The real question: Why is the Left so sympathetic to radical Islam? Answer: The enemy of my enemy is my friend.
See here for a good explanation of this mindset.

Most inciteful response.
because they are racists and haters...oh wait, that is suppose to be us.
I think the reason the left uses the term “radical extremism” intsead of Islamist terms is because it doesn’t preclude “right-wing extremists” in their narrative.
Jonah wrote a truly great and insightful piece
——tendentious, question-begging twaddle——
now there is a wonderfully accurate string of words.
—— and openly talks about restoring the Caliphate——
This Caliphate business is at root, evidence of the Islamic Counter Reformation. The radicals are in fact reformers intent on returning Islam to some purer form in an idealized past. There can be no question that Islam has evolved to accommodate the modern world. That change is hated and the root cause of the radicalization.
To amplify this thought it is noteworthy to segregate the Islamic population into groups. The current war making radicals are mostly Arab. Like their initial leader Usama Bin Ladin, they are frightened and disgusted by the change that has rather suddenly enveloped their small part of the world. The change seemingly has no limits on daily lives and eons old ways of doing things and everyday living.
To make a positive separation, the radicals reformers are not all or even a major part of the total Arab islamic population.
To bring about change that reverts to the good old days it is necessary to bring about the reformation of Islam to the days when modern ways did not conflict with all held to be sacred. It is the west that brought, perhaps even forced the change. It is therefore logical to strike out at the heart of the West to force history backward.
In Egypt we learned that cooler heads finally prevailed. Business and a relatively good life predominated over the sour puritanical counter reformers.
Correct, and because of many factors, most of the time the Christians lost. Except for good fortune and a handful of skilled generals, we would have all been muslims since 1500 AD.
The Left protects Islam like this because they are on same side. If the Left and Islam are not defeated they will end up destroying America and every other country.
Why does the right insist on using the phrase “extremist” or “radical, islam?” There isn’t anything extreme or radical about what these devil worshipers believe in compared to what mohammhead himself believed.Islam IS extreme. Islam IS radical. ALL of it. We need to call a spade a spade and stop pretending that there is a “moderate” version. The only difference in the so called moderate ones is that they want someone else to kill you, they won’t do it themselves. Would we ignore or coddle a moderate cancer? Hell, no!
Romans 1:20 For the invisible things of him since the creation of the world are clearly seen,
being perceived through the things that are made, [even] his everlasting power and divinity; that they may be without excuse:
21 because that, knowing God, they glorified him not as God,
neither gave thanks;
but became vain in their reasonings, and their senseless heart was darkened.
22 Professing themselves to be wise,
they became fools,
23 and changed the glory of the incorruptible God for the likeness of an image of corruptible man, and of birds, and four-footed beasts, and creeping things.
24 Wherefore God gave them up in the lusts of their hearts unto uncleanness,
that their bodies should be dishonored among themselves:
25 for that they exchanged the truth of God for a lie, and worshipped and served the creature
rather than the Creator, who is blessed for ever. Amen.
26 For this cause God gave them up unto vile passions:
for their women changed the natural use into that which is against nature:
27 and likewise also the men,
leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust one toward another,
men with men working unseemliness, and receiving in themselves that recompense of their error which was due.
28 And even as they refused to have God in [their] knowledge,
God gave them up unto a reprobate mind, to do those things which are not fitting;
29 being filled with all unrighteousness, wickedness, covetousness, maliciousness; full of envy, murder, strife, deceit, malignity; whisperers, 30 backbiters, hateful to God, insolent, haughty, boastful, inventors of evil things, disobedient to parents, 31 without understanding, covenant-breakers, without natural affection, unmerciful:
32 who, knowing the ordinance of God, that they that practise such things are worthy of death, not only do the same, but also consent with them that practise them.
Because they want to think Islam is better than Christianity, that it is better than their native culture.
That’s why discussion of violence in the modern day by Islam is readily countered by “Christians did it too!” while ignoring the fact that was centuries ago.
They both want to destroy western society.
