“Sounds like another leftist position to me. “We’ve got to understand why they hate us” and all that baloney.”
I don’t think this is necessarily a leftist position. If they hate us because we are free, are wealthy, like football or because we have “violated” some holy site and are willing to kill us for it we should try to find out.
Why do we continue to let Muslims in the country?
If we had understood why they hate us perhaps we could have kept them out and should deport all non U.S. citizens from Muslim countries ?
I think it is foolish not to try to understand what we are up against .
>> I don’t think this is necessarily a leftist position.
Yes, it is a leftwing moonbat position.
Anyone with half a brain knows precisely why they hate us: because we don’t worship their not-a-god and his false prophet, the pedophile Muhammed.
It’s as simple as that. How do I know? Because they have told us so, over and over, orally and in writing. And they have backed up their words with actions. Vile, barbaric, evil, reprehensible actions that no one (except moonbats and Ron Paul) would tolerate or make excuses for.
The /moonbats/ and /paulistines/ are the ones who don’t get it, and try to make “the Islamist question” out to be more convoluted than it really is. They think you can “tawk” to the Mooselimbs and “negotiate” with them and so forth and we’ll all be just one big happy (isolationist) family.
