Mister Kerry's statement appears to be a deceitful lie on the very face of it. As other posters point out, the "I" stands for precisely what Mister Kerry says that is does not.

That said, one wonders if his statement might be an unintended insult of very large proportion. (One hopes it is not.)

You want to analyze it, go ahead.

He's not using words to analyze the ideology but to persuade people to take action (I guess -- it's hard to tell with Kerry, and he doesn't seem like the type who could get people together to do anything).

Assuming we want to get some kind of coalition together to deal with ISIS/ISIL (and once again it's hard to tell if that's what the administration really wants to do), he's not going to attack Islam or encourage others to do so or make an analysis that would damage the hopes of bringing the countries of the region and the world onboard whatever coalition we may be trying to put together.

So cherish your freedom to opine as much as you want for as long as you want, but please don't assume that government officials will exercise the same freedom.

Exactly. They are over there slaughtering yazidis, christians, and muslims because they are mad at us for occupying their countries.

Notice how the left goes out of the way to glorify islam while they hate Christianity and even say it should not be in public. Given choice, leftists always choose evil.

It’s still the Religion of Pieces no matter how you slice it.

I agree with you. In my capacity as a private opinionator, I can and do point out that Islam has a tendency to awaken the psychotic mass murderer in a person. But if I were Secretary of State trying to cobble together a coalition of muslims to go and get ISIS, I would do just as he is doing (and just as Bush did in his day) which is to try and drive a theological wedge between our allies and our enemies.

There really isn’t much of a theological bright line between “moderate” muslims and nutball psychotic muslims, but I would try to create one.

You and me both. But in this regard, GWB and his statements about islam are pretty much identical as the horse-faced idiot Kerry.

The depth of his stupidity rivals the Marianna trench.

Name one talking head, even on FOX that actually tells the truth about ISL or Islam as a whole. They all sound like they have been educated by GW Bush on the religion of piece.

Oh good grief. Isil or Isis has EVERYTHING!!! to do with Islam. Kill all unbelievers/infidels. It says that in the Koran. Deny that Kerry.

John Kerry is like the neighborhood dog that barks all night just to hear it's own voice.

maybe he learned that he was wrong about Nam and now doesn’t want to accuse anyone of anything that he hasn’t seen with his own eyes? Just trying to grasp the idiocy.
