I’m glad somebody gets it. The three forces of Islam, Western PC and the fearful public are stressing our social fabric and something has to give. Islam is belatedly being recognized as a threat to our society and values, PC is desperate to tell us this is not about Islam, all is good and Islam really is a religion of peace. The problem for PC is they can’t actually show us that this is true and nor can Islam.
Our PC society criticizes many journalists and any in the public who express concern. We are Bigots, racists and suffer Islamophobia. We even take some to court and charge them.
Islamic Jihadi’s then say well, if their own society agrees with us and takes them to court they must be bad people even in their own society, so they can then legitimately target them for attacks because even our own society considers them a threat!
When the public begins to realize that like the case with Charlie, it is the left wing progressives amongst us who are setting up our own citizens as targets for terrorists, then something will really snap and for the progressives, it won’t be much fun.
The PC brigade on this thread continue to deconstruct Islam into component parts in order to trivialize its impact. They use relativism to compare Islam with other religions, historical despotic regimes and the good guys vs. bad guys within Islam itself.
Nothing new for PC of course. Its sole purpose is to deflect away from the real causes in our social, immigration, human rights and PC policies bequeathed to us by the progressives.
They even have the audacity to turn up at the funerals and “solidarity” marches to mourn the victims that they have set up!
No guilt or hypocrisy here, much
