“...excusing the Islamist atrocities...”
Problem - for the left - is that the muzzies hate them as well and are using them for THEIR ends and purposes.
They’ll slaughter them as quickly as possible if they ever get control of the country. How many liberals do you see in Muzzie countries? Think they’ll be standing up for same-sex marriage???
Don’t count on it.
But for now, as long as the muzzies hate America and everything we stand for, it's good enough!
