Fifteen Years After 9/11, Blindness to the Islamist Threat Is Official Policy
NRO ^ | 11 Sep 2016 | Andrew McCarthy

Prohibiting mention of Islam in connection with jihadist violence won’t prevent future atrocities.

If there is a theme to this 15th annual observance — the word “anniversary” just seems so wrong — of the most lethal enemy attack ever carried out on American soil, it is erasure.

At least that’s what they’re being told in Owego, N.Y. There, a Muslim activist group is demanding that the town’s 9/11 memorial be erased. Not all of it; just the word “Islamic.”

Carved into the memorial — the point of which is to signify that which we must never forget — is the factual assertion that, on September 11, 2001, “nineteen Islamic terrorists” carried out coordinated suicide-hijacking attacks against the United States.

The Islamic Organization of the Southern Tier has decided that the monument is dangerous because it “could encourage hatred toward Muslims.” Fifteen years on, we are supposed to believe that the danger we face is not an enduring global threat fueled by an ideology drawn directly from Islamic scripture; the danger lies in speaking honestly about the threat.

Facts are stubborn things.

The fact is that they were Muslim hijackers, who perpetrated atrocities against our country in the name of Allah and Islam.

So now, we aren’t allowed to state facts of a situation???

Or is it only facts which aren’t convenient to liberals which should be ignored????

Islam is the threat

if Hillary is elected she will import millions of Muslims into the USA who can then detonate suitcase NUKES in U.S. cities

Hillary will also give executive amnesty to 40 million illegals if in her first 100 days congress doesn't give them amnesty first

"Fifteen Years After 9/11, Blindness to the Islamist Threat Is Official Policy"

It is NOT blindness. It is a deliberate, willful betrayal of the United States of America by the Traitorobama kakistocracy and other Demonicrat and RINOcrat officials, including Traitorcongress.

It is NOT “blindness”! It is AIDING AND ABETTING!

I am really sick of “they are stupid/naive/don’t get it” etc.

It is ALL being done on purpose and it is obvious.

Still don’t believe it’s blindness to the jihadi evil, but active participation, encouragement and even funding by the democrat party.
