Nobody with basic writing skill could be that stupid. The only conclusion is that they are deliberately siding with our genocidal enemy. Muslims and leftists need to be destroyed before they destroy humanity. All of them, no exceptions.

These people just don’t get it. People don’t want the mosque there because of the ties of the attackers with Islam. And they don’t want Islamics celebrating this terrible event. How hard is that for these people to understand?

Does Time still exist?

That would be a truly amazing revelation.

He just had to mockingly throw in “refudiation”. Dude, you write for TIME so we already know you’re a partisan hack, you don’t have to go out of your way to prove it.

Oh for crips sake, is “Obama eliminated al Quada” the new November mantra? Won't work, we are even arresting Jihadis in Alaska. Not that you would know it.

Sure they don’t exist. That’s why one tried to set off a bomb in crowded Time Square. What do these people use to think with?

...err... Islam's war against the world was launched around 650 A.D.
This war has gone unabated for nearly 1400 years, with a brief 100 year hiatus due to an inability to wage war - not a lack of desire to wage war. That hiatus ended a few decades ago.
This war is not due to some individual hot-heads, or political misunderstandings ... It is Islam's creed. It is in their book. Islam's evangelism is by the sword. Islam's view of the world is that it has 3 options: convert, be enslaved, or die.

"If history teaches us anything it is that history teaches us nothing" ...
Mr. Time Deputy Editor wants us to relearn and experience the history of the past. No thanks.

Part of the new generation of Indian and Indian-American wonderkids who desire to lecture whites on our racist past, obsesions with Islam, and need to import a few million more of their caste-members to the USA.

Here is the complete list of Sr. Editors at TIME.
Senior Editors
Zoher Abdoolcarim, Senior Editor, TIME Asia
Radhika Jones, Arts Editor

Oh, yeah, he’s a CFR member. Funny.

The enemy exsists. It is islam. It seeks to destroy America and civilization and plunge the planet back to the 7th century.

So the war Islam is waging against the western world has been going on for, what, 1300 years (give or take a few). The author is claiming this war somehow just ceased recently?

As long as there are idiots somewhere strapping bombs to themselves or to their children to blow people up, terrorism still exists.

That was no jihadi - that was someone against the Health Care bill (per Mayor Bloombird).

The enemy exsists. It is islam.

The Left is the bigger, more effective enemy. The Islamic world could destroy the USA in a month with a simple Oil Embargo.

The Left is destroying America as we sit here. They have pretty much done the deed. We'll fall when our dollar crashes, destroyed by Wall Street, banksters, and FDR's social programs.

Our neighborhoods are under attack from a constant influx of alien criminals, again, abetted by Libtards who insist we house, educate, jail, and hospitalize them at our expense.

Our culture is denigrated and made illegal. Our most sacred institutions, marraige and the family, are under constant attack in the courts.

Our childrens brains are poisoned in schools and with their mass media, day in and day out.

I dislike Islam. But it is not the active force destroying America. The left, and it's constituent groups are that force. If we defeat the Left, the Islam problem is one we can deal with. The West has dealt with Islam succesfully for 1400 years.

The West has not dealt sucessfully with the Left. We are losing our nation, our culture, our religion, our future -- to the Left.

Let's not get distracted. The Neocons would love to have us all focused on Iran, or Islam, and ignore the destruction that is all around us. The main street in my small city is full of empty stores. Close car dealerships. All the local banks are gone. Criminal aliens are everywhere. Did Islam do that? NO! The Leftists and Elite Planners did it.
