George W. Bush Needs to Speak to His Party
Slate ^ | November 20, 2015 | Jamelle Bouie

Six days after the terrorist attacks on Sept. 11, then-President George W. Bush gave brief remarks at the Islamic Center of Washington, just a short drive from the White House. “These acts of violence against innocents violate the fundamental tenets of the Islamic faith,” Bush said. “The face of terror is not the true faith of Islam. That’s not what Islam is all about. Islam is peace. These terrorists don’t represent peace. They represent evil and war.”(continued)

Is there anything the Left won't do or say to defend Islam?

Americans have learned a lot about Islam over the past decade. Nobody but Red Diaper Babies believe that pablum anymore. Even Muslims know better. Everybody but liberals/progressives/vegans and tree huggers knows better.

G.W, Bush could not get away with such inanity today. He would be better advised to stick to ranching and leave WW III to others more capable of fighting it. Unfortunately that does not include the Islamophiles currently running things.

It is well known that the Bush family is allies with Saudi Arabia, the source of 9/11 terrorists and a lot of terrorist funding over the years. Bush, Jr. was and is an idiot and I really don’t care if he does or does not defend Islam.

Because the left hates conservative Christians and the handful of like minded Jews more than Islam

It’s crazy cause Islam preaches and practices precisely that which the left fears hysterically from Christendom

Mohammed was a terrorist. He didn’t practice true Islam?

Isn’t this precious! A Muslim in charge of US Citizenship papers.

Meet Fatima Noor, President Obama’s latest appointment to a high level position in the Department of Homeland Security, the post of Assistant Director for U.S. Citizenship and Immigration.

Ms. Noor has little if any experience in the compliance or enforcement fields.

Her total experience in government related work is limited to
volunteer work with World Relief Memphis and as activities coordinator the Tennessee Immigrant and Refugee Rights Coalition.

She majored in psychology with minors in Spanish and Arabic international relations. She recently completed a month-long research fellowship in Muslim psychology hosted by Carnegie-Mellon and the University of Pittsburgh; her research will be ongoing as part of her work the DHS.

I know that’s not satire because that would be too crazy to work as satire.

Mohammed was (and still is) an overwhelming warrior — a warrior that terrorized and defeated those that initially rejected him.

Meanwhile, the dumb-# atheists bitch about Christ.

I’ll take that as a ‘yes.’

And that’s why we were in Islamic cesspools so long. Bush wouldn’t admit who and what we are at war with. When we can’t bomb mosques and prosecute our soldiers for killing the enemy we lose. Simple as that. Obama was even more stupid and gave Islamist terrorists a time line in which they just had to wait and take over. Now, he’s inviting them in to our country and Americans will pay the price.

9/11 was led by an Egyptian hijacker, not a Saudi. The other lead pilots were Ziad Jarrah, a Lebanese, and Marwan al Shehhi of the UAE; the Saudis were just the muscle.

No, he wasn't stupid. He knew exactly what he was doing. He still does, even though his malice becomes ever more transparent and his accusations of bigotry, racism, and whatever you might believe, thinner and less convincing as they become ever more strident.

He is destined to become, I think, as great a looming presence in American history as Aaron Burr, who died a fugitive from justice and is remembered only for having shot a former treasury secretary he had a private beef with.

By the Dems not continuing the fight against Islamic Terrorists, they have created the problem .....

If the terrorists were being hunted with a shoot to kill mentality and Iraq was still stable, we wouldn’t have to have these conversations..

With me, he never got away with it, although I have to admit I didn't catch on to what a crime family (as opposed to squishes) the Bushes have ALWAYS BEEN until fairly recently. Anybody who thinks any rank-and-file Republicans have the slightest interest in what any Bush has to say is seriously out of touch.

There is good reason to suspect that 9/11 was financed by charities closely aligned with the Saudi government, as detailed in the suppressed pages of the Congressional and 9/11 Commission reports and other inquiries into the 9/11 attack. In addition, those reports are said to indicate that individuals in the Saudi government or otherwise closely tied to it knew in advance that bin Laden had a team inside the United States preparing to carry out an operation.
