Denying the Obvious About Islamist Terror

It required only half a minute for the mayor of Philadelphia, Democrat Jim Kenney, to achieve national fame. On Friday, an already sensation-crowded day, it fell to the mayor to take part in the official pronouncements on the attempted murder of city police officer Jesse Hartnett, shot and severely wounded as he sat in his patrol car when a would-be assassin emptied his gun at him--13 shots in all.

Police Commissioner Richard Ross Jr., appointed just three days earlier, delivered the details with noteworthy eloquence: The wounded officer, bleeding heavily from three wounds, one arm useless, had gotten himself out of the car, chased the attacker and shot him.

The drama of this recital needed no amplification, but there it was anyway: Clear security video images showed the assailant in his flowing white dishdasha--a robe favored by Muslim men--running toward the patrol car, shooting, sticking his hand in the window, and racing speedily away. Pictures too of the police officer lurching out of the car to give chase.

The wounded shooter, Commissioner Ross revealed, told police after his capture that he had mounted the attack in the name of Islam, that he believes that "the police defend laws that are contrary to Islam." The man apparently wanted to talk only about his devotion to Islam.

Undaunted by anything he'd heard so far, Mayor Kenny then came to the microphone and declared: "In no way, shape or form does anybody in this room believe that Islam or the teaching of Islam" had anything to do with the attack. "This was a criminal with a stolen gun."

Okay article but like all others falls short of finalizing the lesson.

Broadly speaking, there are two main ethoi that infuse American political and social efforts today. The first, is either de jure or de facto to provide American citizenship benefits to the inhabitants of the globe. Redistributing America’s wealth to the rest of the world is the goal of our politicians, oligarchs, elites and recent immigrants and many other citizens.

The second effort is to ensure the dominance of Islam as the controlling religious and political power.

Almost every action or explanation in public discourse can be tied to one of these two overarching, all encompassing activities.

This will continue, led by all parties. In your lifetime (or your children’s) you will see America bleed dry and Islam victorious. Simply chart the velocity of change in all maters politic and social during the last few years and project it. The demographics are against us, the will to oppose is to weak and held by too few.

While D. Trump is the only elite that will speak to this, even if temporarily victorious, a pendulum once swung to the right will pass back through the center to the far left eventually.

Respectfully, .....

If you want to see a good possibility of what's really going on here check out this incredible article by FR's very own Matt Bracken. It's very perceptive and quite chilling:

Liberals don’t understand Islam because it goes against Communist doctrine. They cannot manipulate Islam so they are afraid of it.

Imagine what liberals would do if Christians treated this the same way as the Muzzies. They would crap themselves, but because Christianity is a religion of peace, the libs feel they can bully it. They cannot bully Islam and that works to the Muzzzies advantage.

It’s funny to watch the liberals go thru contortions to expressly avoid mentioning Islam or Muslim every time there is a direct connection - liberal bias refuses to die.
