"Nothing to do with Islam" - Liberals just don't get it
US Defense Watch ^ | January 10, 2016 | Ray Starmann

Posted on 01/10/2016 8:30:21 PM PST by pboyington

Last week’s shooting of a Philadelphia police officer by a crazed gunman, acting in the name of Islam, shed more spotlight on the worldwide threat of Islamic terrorism and the continued denial of the threat by liberals.

Edward Archer, a 30 year old Muslim, said he acted in the name of Islam, when he fired eleven shots at Philadelphia Police Officer, Jesse Hartnett, who miraculously survived the attack.

Homicide Captain James Clark, confirmed the fact that Archer said he acted in the name of Islam.

Yet, in another press conference, Philadelphia Mayor Jim Kenney said in reference to the shooting, “It’s terrible and it does not represent the religion in any way, shape or form or any of its teachings. And this is a criminal with a stolen gun who tried to kill one of our officers, has nothing to do with being a Muslim or following the Islamic faith. That is abhorrent. It’s terrible and it does not represent the religion in any way, shape or form or any of its teachings.”

No, Archer had nothing to do with Islam. He was dressed like a Muslim, and was yelling Allah Akbar when he shot Officer Hartnett. Islam had absolutely nothing to with it.

Archer’s subsequent confession to police officers that he conducted the assassination attempt on behalf of the Islamic State also had nothing to do with Islam.

Mayor Kenney’s outrageous comments are indicative of a trend among liberals to blame any Islamic inspired terrorist attacks on the Second Amendment, or anything else, other than the real culprit, Islam.

President Obama can barely say the words, radical Islam, much less put the blame on ISIS. Secretary of State John Kerry made the ludicrous pronouncement in November, that the Paris attacks were illogical, versus the Charlie Hebdo attacks that in Kerry’s mind were logically inspired.

How is the murder of innocent people ever logical, Mr. Secretary?

After the San Bernandino shootings by Mr. and Mrs. Jihad, President Obama blamed gun owners, the NRA, the Second Amendment and only when the FBI put pressure on him, did he finally state that the murderous acts were “probably terrorism.”

But, he didn’t say ISIS or Islamic terrorism.

Obama and Kerry’s state of denial is only matched by Sanders and Hillary. Neither of those two knuckleheads can say radical Islam. Nor, can they come up with a coherent strategy to battle ISIS.

It’s obvious that President Obama and the current batch of Democrat Presidential candidates simply do not want to fight radical Islam. And, that is a problem for all of us.

Angela Merkel, the Chancellor of Germany is not a liberal on paper, but her policy of opening the country to a flood of millions of un-vetted Muslims has all the reckless naiveté of traditional liberal policies.

Several of the ISIS thugs responsible for the Paris attacks had entered Europe, posing as refugees. As more and more evidence accumulates about how dangerous letting these people into Europe really is, Merkel doubles down by completely denying the terrorism, the rapes, the petty crimes and the murders committed by Muslim migrants.

Merkel has swallowed the basic liberal tenets of viewing the world they want it to be, rather than the way it is.

What else does ISIS have to do to convince the left that they are out to murder all of us?

ISIS has one mission, the murder of anyone who doesn’t agree with their twisted ideology and the implementation of a worldwide caliphate of Islamic evil.

Their goals are not unlike the goals of the Nazis or Imperial Japan. They too, wished to dominate and control the planet and to implement the New Order on all of us. Thankfully, our parents and grandparents had the backbone to stand up to evil and destroy it.

Where is such backbone today? It certainly doesn’t reside in the Democrat Party or with any liberals across the free world. Obama is willing to surrender all of us to the monstrous representatives of radical Islam.

Unless ISIS is destroyed; meaning every member of ISIS killed or captured, every ISIS piece of equipment made inoperable or captured, every ISIS financial asset frozen, every vestige of ISIS eradicated from the earth, the shootings and the bombings and the murder and mayhem will continue unabated across the globe.

And, as the attacks continue and the body count continues to rise, the liberals of the world will make excuse after excuse why they can’t take the fight to ISIS and radical Islam.

The liberals of the world are nearly as much a danger to freedom as ISIS.

It’s time for Obama and the Democrat Party to face reality.

Until then, it will be game, set and match to the madmen of ISIS.

Eight charges against this creep and not one of them is related to terrorism.

Yup. It’s non liberals that don’t get it. There has never been a case of liberals in power not leading to widespread death of their hated opponents.

Hitler. Stalin. Mao. Pol Pot. Most of South America and Africa.

Liberals belong in cages.

Many liberals want to believe that if people just sit down and talk, they will “understand” each other, and once they achieve this “understanding”, they will realize that they have nothing to fight about.

This belief in “understanding” is at the foundation of a lot of anti-military sentiment. They really believe that the military is used because people won’t take the time to talk to each other.

Nevermind that understanding, in some cases, leads to the conclusion that the only possible course is to stand against the enemy.

And, ironically, it is liberals who refuse to understand anyone who does not agree with their opinions.

Islam understands something that we Westerners seem to have forgotten: A society that refuses to defend its women will defend nothing.

Islam targeted European women because it views them as our most valuable property (with the possible exception of our nuclear weapons). If we will not defend them, is there anything we will defend?

Well, is there?

The photo below has a “typo” for the year in error – should be 2016 not 2015.

Islam is a curse on a society.

As Greg Guttfeld said last night, that's like saying cirrhosis of the liver has nothing to do with Bourbon. Come back Mayor Nutter, all is forgiven!

Whoever wrote this is a half-wit. Saying destroying ISIS will stop Islam is foolish. In 24 hours after the demise of ISIS another group just like it will spring up. I think the real answer is to take the battle to all of Islam and let them know we are not victims, a war so harsh they cower when they hear our name.

Islam is big in America Prison because Islam says if you rape, rob, beat up or killed infidels there was nothing wrong with that. You were doing Satans/gods will and will go to heaven for all you’ve done.

That’s a good point.

Unlike ‘turn the other cheek’ Christianity, Islam is the perfect ‘religion’ of hate to be selling to the antisocial.

Sometimes, I wonder. There are the handlers & the dupes. The handlers know, but the dupes really seem to be that gullible.

It is exactly Islam. The muslims who do not practice jihad are actually practicing a bastardized form of the cult. Those are the ones who are not really “islamic”. But even try to pin down the peaceful ones and they will support Islam over sanity.
