Rand Paul to ‘civilized Islam’: Step up
Politico ^ | 09/10/2014 | By LUCY MCCALMONT

Posted on 09/11/2014 10:04:19 AM PDT by Responsibility2nd

Sen. Rand Paul said President Barack Obama made “one important point ” in his remarks on Wednesday saying that the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant was neither Islamic nor a state, but questioned the constitutionality of the president’s strategy.

“Ultimately, civilized Islam will have to step up. We need to do everything we can to protect ourselves, I’m all in for saying we have to combat ISIS,” Paul said Wednesday on “Hannity.” “So I think it is important not only for the American public but for the world and for the Islamic world to point out that this is not a true form of Islam, this is an abhorrent form.”

“So I think it is important not only for the American public but for the world and for the Islamic world to point out that this is not a true form of Islam, this is an abhorrent form.”

 

Rand Paul continues to expose himself as the biggest ass-clown the Repubs have had since, well since his father was around.

He should go on a tour with Mr. Obama of Muslim outreach and ecumenicalism. Maybe take Al Gore and his Westboro Baptist Church buddies, too.

If a politician directs a statement to an empty room, does it make a noise.

Sorry, Rand, but the “true” form you mention is the deceitful mask that the true, and truly barbaric, Islam wears.

The only way Muzzies can claim civility is to give up Islam. Each and every member supports the cause of Mohammed....”World domination and “Kill all the Chriuistians and Jews””.

That’s a contradiction in terms. Like saying civilized savages.

At the risk of piling on Randy Paul here,
I get a kick out of the way he is playing war hawk on this,

Heck, Bernie Sanders was on MSNBC last night calling fo US to annihilate ISIS. Marxist ‘peace at any price’ Bernie Sanders calling for US aggression?

Randy and Bernie are now war hawks (those darn videos)

What are we coming to? Bernie demanded out of Iraq since the start in 2002.

Sorry Rant. There are two types of Muslims:

1. Jihadi terrorists.
2. Those who keep their mouths shut, but agree with jihadi terrorists.

If Rant doesn't know this, he is an idiot. If he does, he's a fraud. Either way, he is not one of us.

Not a single country in the world, or history of the world since Islam began, is better off because of Islam, yet we call it civilization. Islam and civilization are incompatible with one another.

And I can add a 3rd type of Muslim, those that want nothing to do with Islam, but leave it, must be kept very secret, otherwise be killed as a apostate.

I once thought that Rand Paul was OK. Seems like every time he has opened his mouth recently, he has showed himself to be a fool.

The weapons you give any muslim today will probably be used against you tomorrow.

They all need to be disarmed because they are all savages. All arm shipments to any muslims should be eliminated.

Let them kill each other with sticks and stones.

A radical Muslim wants to behead you, a moderate Muslim wants a radical Muslim to behead you.

The appropriate rephrasing of this should be that “Until ‘moderate Muslims’ are at the forefront of fighting this evil, they are condoning it, or worse, approving of it. So until they are at the forefront, they cannot be considered ‘moderate’.”

The only way the “peaceful muslims” will ever step up is by the West inflicting so much collateral damage on muslims that the “peaceful” ones overthrow the jihadists in order to save their own asses.
