"Let Allah sort it out."
That is Sarah Palin's succinct argument against U.S. intervention into Syria. And I have to be honest: I'm impressed with Palin on this one. Not with her horribly callous recommendation, made via Facebook late last week, but because she appears to speak some Arabic.
I'm not saying Palin is fluent in the language, but she did use the Arabic word "Allah." She could've simply used the word "God" instead of Allah since it has the identical meaning. (Christian Arabs use the word Allah when speaking of God in Arabic.)
I think deep down she wanted to show off her language skills.
Could Palin know even more Arabic? She did go on to say that both sides fighting in Syria are, "shouting 'Allah Akbar' at each other."
She could've easily translated "Allah Akbar" into English, noting that the combatants were screaming, "God is great." Or as Sen. John McCain remarked Tuesday on Fox News, "Allah Akbar" is no different than an American Christian saying, "Thank God."
But Palin went with the Arabic. Why? Because I think deep down she loves the language. And I bet Palin knows even more Arabic words such as humus, falafel and possibly babaganoush.
So, let's get back to her statement, "Let Allah sort them out."
Now, there is a possibility that Palin believes that Muslims worship a different God than Christians and Jews. If she does, is she's actually saying that we should sit back and revel in watching Muslims slaughter each other? Could that be her barbaric message? Possibly....

It is a quote from the article. And it is offensive.
AS USUAL ALL YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT THIS WHOLE MESS IS EXPLAINED BY BEAUTIFUL BRAINY ANNIE COULTER...NUFF SAID. JUST WATCH:
Agreed. McCain is a babbling, senile old swine who will do anything to stay in power.
To a leftie, anything Palin says is offensive, simply because she said it.
well im gonna revel and if enough people revel in it it could be like a revelation
Is it true a story can be ‘sold’ to CNN? Do they charge extra for how many times it’s run?
This is so awesome. Not only does Sara get so many subtle points across regarding the whole Middle East “situation” with just 5 words, she manages to explode liberal heads in the process.
Win and win.
Gov. Palin saying something doesn't make her “more brilliant” than a freeper saying the same thing, it just seems to annoy liberals, and you, more. That entertains me.
A Pali comedian walks into a pork chop barbecue...
That’s like saying “Churchill, Washington, Thatcher, Lincoln and Reagan used the same alphabet, phrases and language that I use everyday, therefore, they weren’t all that!” You can’t really mean that, can you? Governor Palin makes news when she opines, even though it’s partially somewhat filtered through the leftist media, you and I don’t make news when we pronounce on something. See the difference?
Whole lot of revel’in’ goin’ on.
No.
If you said it first then you're the brilliant one.
Quit bowing down to people who think they are hot shit for repeating the obvious.
VERY creative!
By God, I’ve got a whole rent-free ranch in yer head!
BOOYAH!
I’m not a subject, I bow to no one.
I won’t insult your intelligence by suggesting that you really believe what you just said.
You’re cute when you try to be creative.
Trouble is.. if yer Mistress posted the same thing
tomorrow, SHE would be the clever one. Not you.
You’re merely a no-name dog to her, when it comes to
taking credit for stuff.
I’m sure you have no problem with that.
Did some woman treat you like a no name dog at some time little Busk-A-Roo?
That could explain a lot of your problems, ya know.
LOL
