Obama refuses to acknowledge ‘Muslim terrorists’ at summit

They’re burning and beheading victims in the name of Islam, but President Obama delivered a major speech Wednesday on combating violent extremism — while refusing to use the words “Muslim terrorists.”

“No religion is responsible for terrorism — people are responsible for violence and terrorism,” Obama told a crowd that included Muslim community leaders at the White House.

Following months of unrelenting atrocities by ISIS killers who released videos of themselves beheading US journalists and, most recently, 21 Coptic Christians, and burning a man alive, the president kowtowed to the audience by proclaiming that “Islam has been woven into the fabric of our country since its founding.”

“Generations of Muslim immigrants came here and went to work as farmers and merchants and factory workers, helped to lay railroads and build up America,” he said.

“The first Islamic center in New York City was founded in the 1890s. America’s first mosque — this was an interesting fact — was in North Dakota.”

Substitute the word ‘Muslim’ for the word ‘Obama’ and the title makes sense.

What’s wrong with saying that people kill everyone else for their own ultra-exclusive worldview/religious interpretation. These people kill just about everyone from other Muslims down to Christians, and Obama doesn’t want to call them at least blasphemers or Middle Eastern nuts?

This Muslim American farmer thing.....where? It might have occurred in the past twenty years....but it didn’t exist in the 1700s or 1800s.

Obama is delusional and bizarre. His refusal to or inability to properly evaluate the threat leaves the United States very vulnerable. This same mindset is what is guiding American “negotiators” with Iran.

Awwww...sob...the scales have fallen from my eyes and I now see the error of my thinking. They ARE good guys, just like Christians.

He’s the world’s best, most successful “Muslim terrorist” so perhaps he’s just being modest, for once.

Muslims are very defensive about their religion...and Obama is a muslim.

Then there's the whole obfuscation tactic which is inherent in Islam.

Are not most Muslims vs terrorists, one in the same? Seems to be a pretty strong correlation.

No religion is responsible for terrorism — people are responsible for violence and terrorism,”

Rephrased:

No firearm is responsible for murder -— people are responsible for violence and murder.....

But the POTUS wants us to believe the first and forget the second.

******

Applying Obama's faulty and distorted reasoning to other wars: Obama probably says it is wrong yo use the terms Japanese, German and Italian in discussing World War II in the 1940s, because he doesn't want to offend Japanese, Germans, and Italians living today who did not take part in the tortures and murders committed by Japanese,Germans, and Italians during World War II.

Obama is entitled to his own opinion as well as his own facts.

Think anyone in the MSM will call him on this whopper?

Here’s a good example of the media’s complicity-

In Detroit recently, a black man walked up to a bus stop and asked the people there if they were Muslim and when they said “no”, they were attacked with a knife. So, the CH 7 Action News station (WXYZ) reports that the victims were attacked “because of their religion” even when it’s been established that the attacker did not know the religions and/or beliefs of his victims.

What the reporter (Jennifer Bisram) should have said was that the victims were attacked because of the perpetrator’s religion, especially since it had already been established that the attacker claimed to be a Muslim.

That being said, I’d like to report a suspicious person- Me! I’m suspicious of WXYZ Channel 7 Action News Detroit and all other news stations in this viewing area.

Exactly. There are no bad groups in the world... except for Christians and Americans.
