Radical Islam, the West’s most ruthless enemy, has an apologist in the West’s most powerful position.
In an apparent example of leading from behind, while using the Christian-based National Prayer Breakfast as cover, Barack Obama invoked a misplaced moral relativism which serves to distract from the latest Islamist atrocity – human immolation.
Our Commander-in-Chief is, in effect, the friend of a fifth column.
Whether he’s acting knowingly or not, the Islamists must think that they have an ally leading from behind enemy lines.
Citing slavery, the Crusades and the Inquisition, Obama’s remarks were an unseemly attempt to excuse the inexcusable. Occurring at an assemblage of the Christian community, it’s his worst slap yet at the faith most Americans “cling to.”
And in the space of two certain sentences, the number of improprieties his comments contained was striking.
His words have inspired a flurry of refutations: about the difference between current events and ancient history; about Christian atrocities being an aberration to the faith while Islamist violence is condoned in their literature – in perpetuity; about the fact that more than 400 years of Muslim murder and conquest preceded the Crusades; that the Islamists slaughtered in one day on 9/11 roughly the same number that the Inquisition killed in a span of centuries; and that Obama’s reference to slavery was spoken to members of the religious tradition most responsible for its abolition.
It’s hard to imagine a more unmindful diatribe. The man is either tone deaf or worse – deliberately in your face.
But what’s been less well-commented on is that these many Islamist atrocities include the very behaviors which incurred God’s judgment during biblical times – and, if there’s justice in the universe, must ultimately again.
In addition to using the Crusades and the Inquisition to excuse their abhorrent behavior, Islamists and their apologists also cite the actions of the ancient Israelites during the conquest of Canaan.
But aside from the passing of 3500 years (isn’t there a statute or something?) there are other extraordinary contrasts between occurrences then and now.
According to the Scriptures, God was not capricious or hasty in his indictments, allowing centuries of detestable practices to occur before finally bringing his judgment to the Canaanites by the hand of the Hebrew tribes. And one of those practices is the same offense which the parents of suicide bombers are guilty of today: child sacrifice. The Lord did not take lightly to such abomination back then and there’s no reason to think that the One whom all these religions are supposed to revere has developed any more tolerance for this unspeakable evil.
And another ancient evil can be torn from today’s headlines. The most common death for those ancient victims of child sacrifice was being burned alive.
It would be much preferred if our president would speak against the appalling persecution befalling Christendom in our day at the hands of radical Islam – including more crucifixions than have been seen in centuries – instead of dredging up the anomalous behavior of wayward crusaders which was never condoned by the church.
But it seems that Obama’s intent is to disparage the US and to rationalize away the plight of Christians worldwide.
And there’s a final irony worth noting from his National Prayer Breakfast speech that’s either ignorant or deliberate: his admonition to a group of Christians against getting on their high horse.
Since before the time of the Crusades, under laws of dhimmitude in Islamic societies, Christians and other non-Muslims were forbidden to get on a horse.
But, but, but. What about the Crusades? Oh, wait. Apparently we’ve advanced in the last thousand or so years. I-slam, not so much.
The incident of the Crusades can easily be justified as a reaction to Muslim invasion of Christian lands.
For Obama to even bring up the Crusades was a historical blooper, but then again, his listeners and the MSM were not very bright either.
He and his ilk hate America. People cannot seem to grasp that fact.
Obama’s remarks were not a blooper, an accidental mistake, but a deliberate insult to all Christians.

A dearth of IPOS and SPOS.
“...there are other extraordinary contrasts between occurrences then and now.”
Not the least of which is, WE evolved and developed and our culture systematically rejected violence as policy ... while they did NOT. They are genetic throwbacks and failed to evolve. They have chromosomes missing.
What ELSE explains their continual and blind acceptance of such a brutal and backward ideology?
I rarely hear Islamics (or their ilk) reference the conquest of Canaan. Yes, it was brutal - but to acknowledge it would be to accept that the Bible is historically accurate, and that the Israelites are the 'Deed-holders' of the land. And most of the Islamics, and their supporters, flee from that idea.
The analogy with the genocide of Exodus is faulty. It doesn’t work. The Israelites were commanded to eliminate one group of people in one location in one time period. Moslems are instructed by their god to kill everyone who is not Moslem everywhere in the world at any time ever. The violence of the Israelites was limited in time and space and target. That of the Moslems is infinite.
No-—Christians did NOT evolve....from the beginning it was a religion of selfless Love.
It took Christianity hundreds of years to change the hearts of the ignorant masses-—many who never had a Christian thought in their head.
That there was a Crusades was a wonderful Catholic event-—otherwise Western Civilization would have been completely destroyed along with the ideas of the Greek Masters, and there would never have been a USA with Christian Worldview based on Reason—and Christian Ethics which made Slavery into an Evil, along with pederasty, homosexuality, child-killing, polygamy-—all still “normal” and “good” in muslim nations (don;t delude yourself about their homosexual cultures where sodomy of boys is preferred sexual recreation and women are hated and mutilated and just used as cattle/breeders).
This marginalization of Christianity has been going on since the Postmodernists and Fabian Socialists-—most sodomites and haters of God”s Design and the fact that Christians created Individual Natural Rights from God-—only-—and those Natural Rights are unalienable.
The elite sodomites want “happy slaves” so they have to destroy Christianity which will destroy the Free Will concepts which created the most brilliant and free cultures in the history of man.
To get ignorant slaves for the State——they need to make our children dumb and ignorant and sexualize them (Sex Ed in public schools is a Lukacs invention to destroy moral formation in children ).
Sex Ed destroys Christian Ethics completely, because it desacralizes sex (makes humans into godless animals) and creates addicts and dysfunctional, puerile, “adults” and reduces man to rutting animals devoid of Virtue, who can be culled and killed with no protest from the majority of useful idiots (like the conditioned Germans) -—for their collective culture.
Desensitization of our children is done by Hollywood sodomites-—so that evil is tolerated and glorified, and is what “toleration” means to them. DON’T judge EVIL. It is Good. The Leftists are flipping our “Justice” System—into a Vice promoting system which is unconstitutional to warp our Language-—and Virtue System which is embedded with Universal Truth and Natural Laws-—and God’s Laws-—which the Leftists want GONE.
The “religion of peace” strikes again!
If you want to know what islam REALLY is, go to YouTube and search for Dr. Bill Warner. If you come away from his well researched and scholarly works and STILL believe islam is a “religion of peace” or is NOT a threat to the world, please check into the nearest institute for the terminally bewildered before you hurt yourself or others. Of course, if you’re REALLY into hurting others, you could always convert to islam. They’ve honed it into an art form!
I was thinking on something here, if Christianity is so bad then why is there not a christian group like ISIS that is committing genocide against others to create a christian state and even Christians have came out against the wrongs so long ago, and forgive my ignorance but ISIS in the span of a couple years has probably killed more then the Irish Republican Army did in around 100 years the IRA have been active, I think Obama should have maybe done some research before saying that but then again I think he knew, but it did not fit the narrative he wanted to promote.
Edit: The lords army in Africa is maybe one so called Christian group committing violence, but that’s still one off the top of my head.
