Avoiding the jihad
Bill O'Reilly website ^ | July 5, 2007 | Bill O'Reilly

Posted on 07/08/2007 12:43:44 AM PDT by 2ndDivisionVet

After another terrorist incident last week, it is obvious that Great Britain is paying a huge price for allowing millions of Muslims to enter the country largely unsupervised. If those bombs had gone off in central London, scores might have been killed, and it was just luck the lethal cars were discovered before they blew.

Even though the British authorities have much more latitude to detain terror suspects than American police do, London remains a soft target. Muslims dominate entire neighborhoods and the jihadists can hide in plain sight, as there is plenty of sympathy for mass murderers among the true believers in London-istan.

Here in he United States, we don't seem to have the same kind of militancy among Muslim-Americans. Once in a while some Muslims are arrested for cooking up terror plots, but, to be fair, Muslims in the USA seem to be disgusted by their psychopathic brethren and are loathe to help them.

In fact, the biggest boost to the jihadists in America comes from the committed left-wing press. Most liberal politicians wouldn't dare downplay terror activity, but certain media will. The New York Times took a huge hit when it ran the recent JFK Airport terror plot story on page 37. Even the Times' own "Public Editor" said it was page one material. When the London stuff hit last weekend, the Times did put the story on page one.

However, a Times "analysis" piece written by Alan Cowell contained this gem: "[Prime Minister] Brown played down the threat, treating the episodes as a crime rather than a threat to civilization. Yet, his minimalist approach seemed to strike a reassuring chord with Britons, many of whom had expressed fatigue with [Tony] Blair's apocalyptic view of terrorism."

That's right, we can't be having any dim views of worldwide terror killings, can we? Ironically, the headline right below Cowell's analysis read: "Pakistan's Battles Against Islamic Militants Reach the Capital."

Elements at NBC News, which has become the most liberal of the three network news organizations, also attempted to diminish the London story. One NBC guest actually said this: "You have a non-event in London, and we're going to battle quarters and beginning to give the old hairy eyeball to every Muslim."

A non-event? Incredibly, that statement went unchallenged on NBC's air.

It is hard to believe that some American media put partisan politics above common sense and national security. The New York Times and NBC News know that any heightened fear of terror activity helps the Republicans. That's why they diminish the threats and concentrate on making America look like the bad guy in the war on terror.

That is infuriating. At this point, I don't really care what party wins the Presidency in 2008; I just want a realistic problem solver in the White House who recognizes the danger from the jihadists. The far-left wants to shut down virtually every anti-terror measure put in place by the Bush administration including Guantanamo, NSA overseas wiretaps, and CIA interrogations overseas. They also want to revoke the Patriot Act.

If that happens, more dead Americans are almost a certainty. I understand there are people in this world who do not want to acknowledge the murderous jihad and will not support aggressive action against it.

Those people are wrong and, more importantly, they are dangerous. Sorry, New York Times and NBC News, global terrorism is no "crime threat." It's war.

"You have a non-event in London...

That people feel perfectly at ease saying and LISTENING to this kind of thing makes me 100% certain we will be hit again.

I thought the violent acts are only being perpetrated by a minority of Muslims many people refer to as "Radical Islamists"? The above paragraph is referring to much more than a minority.

Once in a while some Muslims are arrested for cooking up terror plots, but, to be fair, Muslims in the USA seem to be disgusted by their psychopathic brethren and are loathe to help them.

Once in awhile Bill? You try to make that sound acceptable! Once is one time too many. The Muslim outcry against their fellow Muslims who commit violent acts is almost non existent Bill.

This is a naive and unsubstantiated claim. Muslims tend to wait until they have certain percentages of the host country's total population before they begin harassment --> to attacks --> to total take over.

They don't have sufficient population inside the US yet, to start any trouble like they do in the UK.

It would not suprise me at all that Muslims in the USA want nothing to do with the radicals. They know that non-Muslim Americans will not put up with it and many have “packed heat” to do so.

Total Muslim population of Great Britain is 1.5 Million. They are about 3% of the population. Many of these 1.5 million are native born British Citizens.

Mr O’Reilly should do about 5 minutes research before writing on this topic again.

I'm afraid muzzies will try again and eventually terror and death will do Londonistan in.

How ironic Hitler could not defeat Brittain but muzzies are on their way to achieve it.

The worst part of this sad process is that Brits brought it to themselves voluntarily.

We are the next if we do not wake up now.

Since we can’t know which ones are going to commit terrorist acts, and since all previous terror attacks came from members of the death cult, the only way to be safe is to ask all members of the death cult to pack a suitcase, take a bottle of water, and get the hell out.

Remember the Muslim mind is changeable. It changes when they gain power over infidels and when they move toward devout Muslim status from secularism.

Do not make any mistake about it. They have a mandate to make the whole world Muslim and their history demonstrates their willingmess to do so.

I understand Christians in Iraq are now having to pay a huge tax, another historical policy of Islam to effect conversions, whether sincere or not.
