It's amazingly historically naive, but what can you expect from someone who is so obviously not familiar with American culture?
There are organizations dedicated to helping the persecuted Christian minorities away from Daesh*, and I'd much rather see those people in America than the many refugees we see in Hungary and everywhere else video comes from. Why? Tell me how many Christians are in Daesh? Yeah, zero point zero. I feel much safer with that population. Or the Yazidis.
*Daesh is a new term being used for the Islamic State/ISIS/ISIL. They consider it derogatory - which is a good enough reason to use the name for me.
IMHO all the forced muslim immigration is a conspiracy by the UN and left leaning politicians. It is impossible for Marxist/socialist/communist to compete with freedom/democracy/capitalism in the arena of philosophy and ideas. They require a 'crisis' a downtrodden population and a failed government. This unlimited and uncontrolled immigration will give us that and then we will be ripe for a Hugo Chavez, a Castro, a Hillary Clinton...
ReplyDeleteWhile I am not a fan of Islam or the Hiraj they are engaging in comparing them to
ReplyDeletethe Pilgrims and Puritans isn't a far stretch considering the penchant the latter group had for burning and drowning 'witches' and other 'familiars' of the devil.
Graybeard,
ReplyDeleteIf Obama and Kerry are using this term now (Daesh), it is because it is useful. It no longer reminds people that ISIS is indeed islamic. I think it is a sly and sneaky way for them to deflect people from remembering the islam is the problem.
I started to use it, too, but upon reading how many of the world leaders have begun using it, I smell a rat. Islamic State or ISIS works better for me.
Well Reg....whether or not the 'world's religions' have grown up or just become more subtle in their methods of oppression would be a matter of opinion. Often the difference between groups is more matter of degree and methodology than ideology.
ReplyDeleteNot defending Islam....just saying that modern 'religions' are not as clean, benign or trustworthy as most think.
Dan,
ReplyDeleteI never said the other religions weren't repressive, oppressive, or un-subtle about their manipulation, or completely free of fault in any way. I merely commented - quite accurately, I believe - that islam abuses and kills their women (and rapes their little girls and boys) today. Now. Not three hundred years ago. I left the Catholic Church when I was fourteen, but even though I have no use for them, I recognize that the Inquisition (Protestant burning of "witches, etc.) was long, long ago. Yes, some Catholic priests still molest children (which is horrible, and they should IMHO be subject to a death penalty, along with the bishops and cardinals that look the other way and enable them), but they have stopped killing, burning at the stake, and all the other horrible abuses - as a religious practice - centuries ago. The filthy, sub-human, deserves-to-be-eradicated pretend-religion called islam is doing it TODAY. Just as they have for over 1400 years. I see that as a damn good indication they never will.
The catholic priests appealed to homosexuals ans during the 40's, 50's and 60's a lot of homosexuals went into the priesthood. The molestation of young boys was an inevitable result of that it was not about religion or caused by religion.
