One of the unfortunate downside to a free and open place of exchange like Free Republic(especially where one can post anonymously) is that some of the nuttier, rabid, fringe, and knee-jerk posters can spam lots of irrational thought. The most vocal often are the least representative.

You remind me of the poster John HK, who refused to believe that Islam was behind 3-11. He chided us on that day for our "knee jerk reaction" because we were jumping up and down saying Al Qaeda! Al Qaeda! and he kept insisting it was ETA. His chiding bordered on appeasement, I thought. Of course it wasnt ETA, and I havent seen him here since. Or at least I havent seen him. Ill bet that the next bomb that goes off in America will have you putting Islam at the top of the list of suspects. because if you dont do it automatically, you are a living casualty of PC. This not a flame post, nor am I looking for trouble. I just didnt have time yesterday to respond to your smart aleck post. A post I will give you, because for the first time since 9-11, I was wrong in assesing blame.

London-Islamic terror

Bali-Islamic terror

NYC-Islamic terror

Madrid-Islamic terror

French Oil Tanker-Islamic terror

Istanbul-Islamic terror

Casablanca-Islamic terror

Thwarted Ricin Water attack, England-Islamic terror.

Beslan(One of the most abominable-children were specifically targeted)-Islamic terror

Moscow Theatre-Islamic terror

Iraq(they are killing their own daily in the name of Allah)-Islamic terror

Any number of cities and towns in Israel-Islamic terror

Im convinced Egyptair 990 was -Islamic terror

Jose Padilla didnt come here at the behest of the IRA, ETA, Action Direct, or AIM-Islamic terror.

If it walks like a duck, Im calling it. Again, Im not flaming, but PC kills and Im sorry to see it here on FR. We are at war, and the PC crap that goes on threatens our country.
