A very eloquent piece by the great Andy McCarthy.
I have been thinking about Lara Logan ever since this happened, and have been wondering whether she’ll be doubly raped: the details of the story have indeed been left very vague, but from everything I’ve heard, it was a gang rape
carried out over a LONG period of time, and involving as many as EIGHTY ‘men’, OBVIOUSLY Radical Muslims. The hush-hush treatment of the story both points to the ongoing practice of turning away from the realities of Radical Islam, and possibly the ‘embarrasment’ that might accrue to Logan’s employer, CBS, who might now see her ironically as
someone whose career is functionally OVER, because she’s been DESPOILED. In other words, it may not be entirely up to HER,whether she wants to continue to be a Journalist, even though that doesn’t preclude someone else, like FOX, from offering her a job.
The kind of grotesque humiliation she experienced (as a journalist just out to cover a story) as far as I know, is unprecedented in my lifetime-—being pushed around, and roughed up is one thing-—gang-rape is quite another.
She will have to be quite a remarkable woman to come back from this, and the MSM will have to do their part in facing facts, whether or not “they want her back”.
Hearing all these statistics about how Sharia-ready the Egyptian population is has made me VERY troubled—I wasn’t exactly feeling all warm and gooey over the prospects of ‘a democratic revolution’, but this one incident, and the newly revealed stats have convinced me I was probably wrong about the potential of Egypt NOT to fall to Radical Islam. Not all Egyptians are like this, regardless of the statistics: I don’t believe the “Youth Movement” is ready to give up, though most of them may have nowhere to migrate to except the USA, if Egypt falls.
And NO WONDER this Administration has been making noises about how they fear the Muslim Brotherhood might take over:
if that happens it will prove to be the crowning glory of the worst and most reckless President we’ve ever seen:
Mubarak, even though he was the rottenest of rotten kleptocrats,may be proven right when he said that Obama had no idea what he was unleashing when they demanded he step down.
