A taxpayer-funded study released this week declares that Muslim terrorists are generally misunderstood, don’t want to force their religion on the world and only kill people to protect themselves from victimization by enemies of Islam.

A 14-page document, titled, “How Islamist Extremists Quote the Quran,” explains the study’s analysis of 2,000 instances of propaganda from al-Qaida and other Islamic extremist groups from 1998 to 2011:

We conclude that verses extremists cite from the Qur’an do not suggest an offensive foe seeking domination and conquest of unbelievers, as is commonly assumed. Instead they deal with themes of victimization, dishonor, and retribution. …

Based on this analysis we recommend that the West abandon claims that Islamist extremists seek world domination, focus on counteracting or addressing claims of victimage, emphasize alternative means of deliverance, and work to undermine “champion” image sought by extremists.

That's a relief....Who knew, all this time all they really needed was a hug.....

[Lets Roll NOW]

Only academics could be this stupid. It’s time we stopped funding them.

[Da Coyote]

Academics....I thin’ that word does not mean what the author thin’s it means.

A physics professor is an academic.

A sociology “professor” is not.

A mathematics professor is an academic.

A Political “Science” professor is most probably not.

An engineering professor is an academic.

A politican is not.

Do you get the feeling that this “study” was created by starting from the conclusion and working backward?

[FlingWingFlyer]

Don’t tell me. This “study” was conducted by taxpayer-funded, Muzzie “academics”.

I UNDERSTAND...PERFECTLY!

[ScottinVA]

The muslims themselves must be stunned in amazement at how easily America is being conquered.

[Puppage]

Academics and Islamic terrorist... I can’t decide which is more dangerous, both need liquidated immediately.

Something’s up. FOX News mentioned somebody pushing the idea that Iran getting the bomb would be a good thing.

We paid for this work of Fiction? What did Daniel Pearl do to victimize Islam?

Those people are murderous animals, we don't need a study only to read our history books.

[Catmom]

Someone needs to write a version of West Side Story where the gang kids are terrorists.

[mjp]

don’t want to force their religion on the world

This is called evasion of reality.It's what libtards do best.

[SECURE AMERICA]

Since many of the most revered islamic leaders have stated publically that the goal is destruction of Western society and establishment of world wide muslim rule I gotta dismiss this so called study as more academic nonsense.

[antidemoncrat]

Yeah. If it wasn’t for studies our whole economy would collapse. To top it all off, the end result of most studies is “more study needed”.
