It shows once again that
we will be the enemy regardless. There will always be something about the
rest of the world to rally the forces of
fearmongering war profiteers around because they need that.
The
Neocon pseudo-patriots and every
cuckholded administration have always needed an enemy to focus the attention of their minions away from their own problems and toward the group good, fighting
fill in blank.
Every religion in the world seem[s] to settle for "evil" or "the devil" when there's no enemy more apparent.
xoB, thank you for letting me use your thoughts as a starting point for my post. With these few edits, I haven't changed the truth of the post at all.
Especially the first sentence. It takes two, brotha, it takes two.
Your broad generalizations can be supported by actual incidents. As can my equally broad generalizations. And like all broad generalizations, the broader they are the less precisely they apply. The behavior of the mobs in Afghanistan is criminal. Just that. Well, maybe you can throw in a fig leaf of religious indignation. But if the same behavior was demonstrated by Christians, would you say the same of them? I doubt it.
Islam didn't riot, people did. To tar all of Islam like this based on the actions of a small number of people relative to the the population of believers is misinformed or lazy or deluded and I have never seen evidence of any of those traits in your writing. So must naturally conclude that you've made a mistake, which I wish to correct:
Islam is not the enemy of the US.
Agreed?
