Now that a Democrat has been President (for 7.5 years), its a lot harder.

I hope that you are right, of course, but I am not the least bit sure of it.<br /><br />In fact, 9/11 was not only <i>not</i> a wake-up call to address the problem of political Islam, it had the opposite effect. It ended up stifling the possibility of addressing the problem because the West, including many within the US, still suffer from the post-WWII hangover of western colonial guilt.<br /><br />Thus as the US went into retreat it gave space for the advancement of Sharia through blowing shit up and killing people.<br /><br />In any case, I very much hope that you are right.Mike L.https://www.blogger.com/profile/06450806807610560873noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6579213173749170024.post-46799177408580378042016-06-12T20:20:29.262-07:002016-06-12T20:20:29.262-07:00My suspicion is that very little of substance will...My suspicion is that very little of substance will be done by the US, or the West, in general, to counter and defeat the Islamic political movement that gives us these terrorist attacks.<br /><br />A big part of the reason for this is the self-cencorship on the question of Islamism among the Democratic Party.<br /><br />If you cannot name something then you cannot in any meaningful way consider it or discuss it.<br /><br />And if you cannot consider it or speak of it, because you cannot name it, then you can do nothing meaningful about it.<br /><br />This desire to veil political Islam from the public consciousness was Obama's unspoken decision when he came into office and now we're all stuck with it. Further, the Democratic Party is acting as an enforcer of this veiling through slandering anyone who does wish to talk about the threat of political Islam as a vile "racist."<br /><br />They've taken the Civil Rights Movement and turned it into a club against anti-Jihadis.<br /><br />It would be something akin to accusing those opposed to Nazism as being racist toward Germans.Mike L.https://www.blogger.com/profile/06450806807610560873noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6579213173749170024.post-67571962218390170702016-06-12T20:07:49.601-07:002016-06-12T20:07:49.601-07:00But seriously, this nonsense can't keep going ...But seriously, this nonsense can't keep going on.

Before that I was in CT (Newtown shootings), 60 miles from NYC (9/11) happened one month after I moved there from the San Francisco Bay Area (massacre at 101 California Street, Loma Pieta Earthquake, Jim Jones mass suicide happened shortly after I moved there, assassination of Mayor Moscone and Harvey Milk). Interesting things seem to happen wherever I go. If I ever decide to come to England I'll give you fair warning.

No one in the administration has, apparently, even the slightest clue where that hatred comes from.<br /><br />It's just floating about there in the <i>aether</i> and somehow snuck into this guy's head through his ears.<br /><br />He also expressed concern about guns in American culture and admonished us not to turn on any of our fellow Americas.<br /><br />But, mainly, he just sounded beat.<br /><br />I don't know if it was fatigue or sadness, but it was a very low-energy speech.<br /><br />I suppose that is not surprising.

He indirectly worked for the government.<br /><br />The insistence not to address the issue by refusing to acknowledge it is a failure. This is not a matter of gun control. Most people know most Muslims here do not condone such atrocities. Enough red herrings!<br /><br />It is ironic, and sad, that pinkwashing seems more important to many gays.
