The writer works some information in on who set off the fireworks in Syria, Iraq Libya and Yemen. Unfortunately the 'Bush Democracy Project' was responsible for the civil war that ensued, Hildabeast wanted Khaddify overturned for murky reasons the Clintons best know, but probably have something to do with the Libyan dictators large stash of gold bullion, and Syria's civil war is a fragrant blossom from the BHO-Brennan 'Arab Spring'.
This is interlarded with the standard Arab paranoia such as it should be mentioned that many new studies indicate that the U.S. was never interested in toppling [Syrian President Bashar] Al-Assad – only in weakening Syria. No Ismail the US really wanted the heretical Alawite Assad regime gone so there could be a real Arab Spring for the Sunni loonies and genocide for the Christians and Alawites.
al-taqiyaa at its “best”
Barf alert needed.
And not.
The title alone tells you all you need to know and muslim victim mentality gags me. It’s just trying to guilt trip us. THey know what they are saying and that they are trying to manipulate us.
In comparison to this bozo’s; ‘events of September 11’, Rep. Omar’s description; ‘some people did something’, stands as a paragon of specificity.
Here is my attempt at opacity.
Islam = ISIS
ISIS = Islam
We haven’t always made the best choices since 9-11 but the Syrian conflict in particular has little if any connection to that event. Our choices may have shaped the outcomes but if we had just stepped aside and perhaps ignored the region entirely as a response, different forms of mass killing or repression would have almost certainly arisen.
The problems faced by the region today stem mostly from their irrational hatred of Israel and the Christian west (as they see us) — where non-western cultures are not contaminated by such attitudes, as in India or Japan, we see examples of non-western cultures advancing and making progress more or less compatible with our own.
The question is, who’s going to tell them (effectively, since I just did and I’m hardly the first), and and when are they going to change their ways? The only hope I see for that is conversion from a false religion to one with a true foundation.
This reminds me of the kids who killed their parents and claiming victimhood status because now they are orphans.
Funny thing is, the West is (figuratively) taking the orphans in!
The Chinese are no dummies. That sob story don’t play with them.
This guy must have gone to the same journalism school as Baghdah Bob.
Obviously it is OK for muslims to kill other muslims as long as they are of different sects.
That would be like Lutherans killing Methodists or Catholics killing Baptists. That happens all the time, right?
That’s what Omar wanted to say today.
“rodomontade”.
Learned a new word today. I’ll add it to my arsenal.
Thanks! ‘Pod
Thus, in less than a generation, a large segment of Muslims have gone from celebrating the 9/11 attack on America as a deserved blow from Allah against the great infidel power to now claiming that they are the true victims of the attack and the US reaction to it. Yet if that proposition is accepted as true, the obvious lesson is somehow missed: do not attack the USA.
There is a lesson for the US in the failure of Muslim societies to adopt democracy and modernity or even accept the obvious when given the chance to do so. Islam is profoundly regressive and is naturally congenial to autocracy. Instead of promoting democracy as if a grass lawn can be sown on a bare concrete slab, the better course may be to have a set of rules that offers safe harbor to Muslim autocrats who behave: no genocide; no WMDs; no terrorism; no wars; and no hateful teachings against the USA and the West.
Keep to those restrictions and you get to abuse and exploit your people within traditional limits without the US despatching a flight of cruise missiles against you.
Cringeworthy. Horse. Sh*t.
I read this with as much skepticism as any FReeper, if not more. But one thing that is just common sense keeps coming back to me. Financing war is incredibly expensive. RPGs, AKs, etc. don’t grow on trees and the ammo ain’t cheap, either. And then you have to feed, clothe, and at least occasionally shelter troops. Yesterday we remembered the 911 operation against us cost millions just in transportation, flight school, hookers, and booze. The Bush admin didn’t want us to know it was the Saudis but, it was the Saudis. So my question is who is paying the freight for AlQueda now? In Syria, in Afghanistan, etc.? It would seem our media is uninterested in this question. Does the CIA know who it is? IMHO an intelligent electorate would cut all funding from this stuff until we get some answers. Answers that have been denied us for almost two decades.
The financing for Al Queda comes from wealthy Arabs and ruling families in Saudi Arabia and the Gulf and from criminal activities like the drug trade, antiquities, and routine smuggling.
. I would not say Islam is congenial to tyranny, simply because it can't even live with itself so it is never in a peaceful state . It can only exist in anything approaching a stable country with some sort of brutal regime clamping down on the behavior that their foul religion demands. Turkey seemed to be the only exception I've seen and it proves Islam can only be stable under some brutal form of Government as Erdogan is busy becoming Europe's next Hitler.
My solution to the problem of Islam is isolate it like the mind plague it is. Most important is, never, ever, give it any respect for it is simply too evil a construction to deserve any.
So why are we killing them when we could just cut off their funding?
