MARK STEYN: MULTICULTURAL ILLUSIONS KILL - NO STRATEGY TO DEFEND AGAINST IDEOLOGY

[Vendome]

She absolutely is.

[Yaelle]

Listening to Mark right now.

Look, political correctness KILLS. It killed a lot of us yesterday. We need desperately to become colorblind and honest and aware. That means profiling where profiling will help.

Our only hope is to disown the mainstream media. Fast.

[RayTheSpook]

Well, all I can say maybe that “western civilization” birthed this guy, so it kind of flys in the face of the “fight them over there” thinking. I don’t know if we can disown this guy any more than we can McVeigh. Sure we can denounce him and so on, but we made him and It seems strange that we could create a person like this, but he maybe was just ignorant, he definitely was not the first educated person I have met that has tried to be violent despite their accpetance by academia. Being educated does not seem to imply anything and now being a soldier also doesn’t guarentee anything, remember the MIAC report, funny how they left guys like THIS ONE out of that smear!

Meet Kim Munley - Officer of the Year!

Take that and a slab of bacon, you sick, murderous Islamo-fascist ba$tards!

God bless you and thank you for your service, Sgt. Munley! You made us proud!

[TigersEye]

I don’t know who the “we” is you’re talking about. Nadal Hasan was “made” by his religion. Islam.

[MrB]

This commanding officer probably understood that his career would be OVER if he did anything more overt to a “protected minority”.

[MrB]

It needs a reformation or an extinction.

We should let them choose.

That’s the choice they give all infidels:
1) Convert
2) Be a slave
3) Die at the hands of jihadis

[Vendome]

Take a slab of bacon!

That is funny because I was talking to another person who thought it would have been just to appropriate, had Jihad Nidal, interrupted her lunch.

He was thinking it would been perfect if her lunch was a BLT and after she put 4 rounds in him, she could have stuffed his mouth it.

Sounded funnier than my writing.

[Biggirl]

Well because their god is none other then the DEVIL himself.

[Biggirl]

Good job Mark Steyn!

[The Comedian]

Then we need to reform it for them. And frankly, if the end result of that reformation is that there is no more islam, that works for me.

Detonating a nuclear warhead atop the Kabah in Mecca is arguably the best and possibly only way this would be accomplished. And I'm good with that.

Frowning takes 68 muscles.
Smiling takes 6.
Pulling this trigger takes 2.
I'm lazy.

[Marine_Uncle]

As Mark wrote: "... and in the end his Islamic impulses trumped his expensive western education, his psychiatric training, his military discipline – his entire American identity."
Bingo.

[GOPJ]

Thanks for the ping.

[FreedomPoster]

I wish I had managed to listen to more of it. Good stuff.

[GOPJ]

And his superior officers and other authorities knew about his beliefs but seemed to think it was just a bit of harmless multicultural diversity – as if believing that “the Muslims should stand up and fight against the aggressor” (ie, his fellow American soldiers) and writing Internet paeans to the “noble” “heroism” of suicide bombers and, indeed, objectively supporting the other side in an active war is to be regarded as just some kind of alternative lifestyle that adds to the general vibrancy of the base.

A family member of a murdered soldier needs to bring charges against the any brass who knew what this monster was saying...

[GOPJ]

It’s always been a war of ideas - and our side has come unarmed.

[irv]

“We are not to question Sharia.” ... That’s the guy manning the airport security desk.

This is almost more scary than the scumbag shooting up Fort Hood. The two things together tell us that background checks aren't worth a damn, if they're being done at all.

[little jeremiah]

“It seems strange that we could create a person like this”

What is this “we” that you speak of??

The only “we” problem I see is that Muslim jihad lovers/promoters/teacher/trainers/enablers/funders are not kicked out of the military and indeed, the US of A. Due to leftist psychopathy. And I’m not a leftist so even that isn’t due to “we”.

[grey_whiskers]

Obviously, Hasan only did this because he never accepted Barack H. Obama as his personal savior. (mmm, mmm, mmm) /sarc>

Seriously, is this the sign that Obama should give back his Nobel Peace Prize?

Prayers for the families.

[wjcsux]

Mark has the best analysis on this trajedy that I have read. He never minces words, ever.
