The Straight Poop On Radical Islam
by Burt PrelutskyI suspect that because George Bush and Condoleezza Rice were so respectful of Muslims, constantly telling us that theirs is a religion of peace, some otherwise sensible Americans actually began to believe it. Now we have a president who not only kowtows to a Saudi prince, but carries on as if Israeli homes are more threatening than Iranian nukes.
What is wrong with our leaders? Are they worried that they won’t be invited to those cool Ramadan parties? The Islamists have been actively at war with us for 30 years and generally at war with western civilization for well over a thousand years, and still we pay lip service to these people in a way we never did with Nazi Germany, Imperial Japan or the Soviet Union. Is it because the Muslims commit sadism and murder in the name of religion and not country? If anything, I would think that would make their evil acts all the more contemptible.
Still, I would contend that Hezbollah and al Qaeda are not as dangerous as America’s liberals. The Islamic terrorists can only kill so many people, but those on the Left are doing everything in their power to eviscerate America. Cap and Trade can destroy our industrial might; Obama’s trillion dollar stimulus programs combined with his delusional health care plan will not only bankrupt our nation, but lead inevitably to a rate of inflation that will impress even Jimmy Carter; and the budget cuts directed at our military and our missile defense system will make us increasingly vulnerable to our various enemies.
The problem is that liberals are not only nuts, but inconsistent. They very much want to send our military to Africa to stop the savagery in the Sudan, but didn’t want to see it employed against the equally barbaric Saddam Hussein, Pol Pot or Ho Chi Minh. Funny how you never hear them insist that we have no business in Darfur because Sudan didn’t attack us on 9/11 or point out that we have no compelling interest in sub-Sahara Africa. But that’s to be expected when people get their information from Bill Maher and Jon Stewart and their talking points from the likes of Bono and the Dixie Chicks.
Clearly, the Left wants America to be a toothless tiger, rather like the U.N. What they fail to grasp is that as America goes, so goes freedom everywhere. Or perhaps they think the French will do a better job of policing the world. The French, alas, can’t even police Paris.
Speaking of liberals, the irony is that so many of them who never believed God even existed are now convinced that He is alive and well and going out on date nights with Michelle.
Getting back to Muslims, there are people who would insist that we should distinguish between those who cut off the heads of their innocent victims and those who just want to live and let live. Well, I keep trying, heaven knows, but it’s not as easy as it sounds.
For instance, recently I read about a stomach-turning incident that took place in Phoenix, Arizona. It seems that four boys between the ages of nine and 14 lured an eight-year-old girl into a shed and took turns raping her. While that was pretty damn loathsome, what was even more disgusting is what took place afterward. In the little girl’s presence, her father, a Muslim refugee from Liberia, told the police, “Take her. I don’t want her.”
It seems that in what passes for their culture, the child had brought shame on the family.
Now I understand that any country that keeps electing people like Bill Clinton, Barney Frank, Barbara Boxer and Barack Obama, the killer B’s as it were, doesn’t have terribly high standards, but assuming we have any at all, will someone please explain how degenerates like these get into the country?

you had me at "poop" and then i read the story and you are right, what is happening is loathsome. makes the poop crack look wholesome.
WELL SAID…….I've said it before and I'll say it again…The Muslim community can say what they want about love and acceptance in their religion and quote all day long the verses from the Koran, but it is their religion that is killing, burning, bombing acrros the world. It would seem to me that their actions speak for their "god". So much for the BLOOD religion.
Burt, we mustn’t look at the results of liberal policy, but only at their intentions. Sacrifices have to made for the greater good. We must always remember it’s for the children, except of coarse that poor little girl that was gang raped, we must understand other cultures (muslim goons)and not be judgmental lest we be judged, you know …the religion of peace and all. I think the crappy muslim father needs a good gang raping.
Islamic Imperialism: what no one wants to admit, has been the goal of Islamic leaders since the days of Muhammad. The historical evidence is clear.
Great article. But Burt, godless Liberals think Muslim Terrorists only want to behead Christian and Jewish Conservatives. So I guess, in a Liberal's mind, 'The enemy of your enemy is your Friend" plays well and it is a shared common goal.
the left only wants military intervention when it is NOT in our national security interest…
Ergo, Darfur. Or Haiti. Generally the bigger the hell hole, the farther away the more they cry for Rangers and Marines to be 'Meals on Wheels'. Darfur, while tragic, is not our affair. Iraq and Afghanistan unfortunately are.
Therefore they are to be ridiculed and protested. So, as Richard Mulligan's General Custer told Dustin Hoffman's Jack Crabbe in 'Little Big Man'- "Muleskinner, you are the perfect reverse barometer"
As is the Left in this country. If they're agin' it, we're for it…
I particularly like your comments on the inconsistency expressed by liberals. They are hardly the only people who are, but nobody does "self-righteous, we are smarter than you" quite like liberals. It is the same principle used against some family values conservative politicians who preach family values, then fail to live by them.
Unfortunately for us, the Bush's kind of look at themselves as royalty, and tried to stay above the fray. Consequently, GWB never defended himself from the propaganda of the left. No doubt, a century from now, historians will look at the First Persian Gulf War and the Overthrow of Saddam Hussein, and see them as a continuim. In between was the failed policty of William Jefferson Clinton, the Great Prevaricator, who built a permanent military base (Prince Sultan) sixty miles from Mecca, which induced the "Jihad" which led to 9/11, and left the geo-political chess pieces of the US in such a weakened position, that ousting Hussein was the only choice outside of retreating ala Somalia.
The ultimate mortal sin of modern liberalism (not to be confused with classical liberalism, which was concerned with things like, say, liberty) is "morel equivalence."
Judge no one.
Freedom TO go to hell, as well. Unlike the Nazi's, Islamism isn't contained in one nice package. I can understand not wanting to make enemies of over a billion people who are not activery trying to make war. However, it is necessary to delineate between what is acceptable and what is not. Mr. Prelutzky, what you've described is, indeed, unnacceptable as is sharia, female genital mutilation, honor killings and the rest of the 7th century barbarism.
"It is not worth the reversal of a Custer decision."
I sometimes think, the left feels if we help somebody AND benefit drom it ourselves as well, our motives are somehow "impure." Oh heck, I have given up on trying to understand those guys.

When I first heard about the rape of the girl by the four boys, their country of origin and their religion were not mentioned. I thought the act had been committed by American boys and I was seriously troubled that it had happened here. It was only on Pajamas media that I saw the true story, they were from Africa, from a war torn country where children were often forced to commit rape by brutal monsters. I also learned that they were muslim and that the father had denied the daughter because of the rape. The mainstream media, once again, covered up an atrocity committed by people from a muslim culture. Thanks Breitbart and Pajamas media for getting out the truth.
With that case of that 17 year old girl running away from her Muslim father/family because he stated he would kill her since she had become a Christian, how will the judge decide? How far is our country going to go to in allowing Honor killings? And whatever happened to that man who beheaded his wife? Or the man who killed his two daughters and then ran away? Yes, I believe there are Muslim families just like mine is Christian who are inherently good people so where are they? Where are their voices proclaiming those who do Honor Killings are wrong? They are just as afraid as our Government is. Why is it so hard to simply state, "Guess what? You come to this country, you honor OUR laws. You will be prosecuted to the fullest extent of OUR laws – not Sharia."
Has anyone heard anymore about those lovely State Backed Sharia-Compliant loans Muslims get in MN and CA and who knows where else? Funny how these things are kept so quiet. And when you do tell your Congressman or Senators, nobody says a thing. Or about the fact that Muslim students are routinely let out of our Public schools in Washington state and Portland Oregon for Friday prayers while all the other kids continue their studies or that they are allowed out of class to pray. Can you imagine a Christian or a Jew getting equal treatment? My Senators here in Oregon could give a *** so it just keeps getting worse.
Stan, clearly you need re-education. Tsk tsk.
The muslim violence will never end until the Imam's stand up and admit that their religion has been hijacked. Unfortunately for them, that's also punishable by death so….
Everybody should watch the Obsession Movie.

Having to put up with their notions of moral equivalence is precisely what drove me away from the Left.
Agreed. There comes a time in every person's life where you just have to take a stand and say "no, that is wrong."
If you can't put it into precise words, when its wrong, it's wrong.
Is it possible that Obama and his ilk show obeisance to Islam (I am sorry but he did BOW to a Saudi and to me that is obeisance) because they will leave no stone unturned in their efforts to bring this country down? Obama expends a tremendous amount of energy in trying to make our country over to his satisfaction and seems to spend not one second in trying to sustain what the majority want. He entered his presidency very complacent and self-satisfied and yet perhaps he is not aware the Marie Antoinette and Louis XVI also started out in the catbird seat but somehow did not manage to remain in it.

Well that's sad isn't it? That the first thing you thought was that these were American boys. Isn't that the brainwashing we get from the media — who only pay attention to atrocities committed by Americans. In upstate NY recently a Muslim woman was BEHEADED by her husband. I have heard nothing more of that story in the newspaper or online. Why do the MSM protect Muslims? In my opinion, because they are cowards, pure and simply. They would never publish the cartoons after all. So my hat is off to Burt and I couldn't agree with you more. I see more and more Muslims around everyday where I live and I am convinced they are intent on populating every European country and America so that one day, we will find ourselves under Muslim rule. Perhaps we already are.
Tennessee Jed It will drive you insane trying to understand liberal motives. Darfur and Haiti are causes we should care about. The Iranian people screaming to the world at the top of there lungs "We Want Freedom", not our problem…….
Your correct in your assertion that if we gain from it, it's got to be wrong. A free Iran would benefit everyone in the world, as does a free Iraq and Afghanistan. Doing anything at all on the African Continent does nothing for anyone except make it much easier for a new tyrant to come to power there…….
Damn — Bosch beat me to it. I probably couldn't have said it much better.
If Islam wants to destroy the U.S., it better hurry … because Barry Hussein X is doing a pretty darn good job so far.
I fear I’m beyond help : (
Remember Norm's skit on SNL about the worst job in the world? One week it was crack whore and the next week it was updated to assistant to crack whore. That's what most liberals are, especially those who follow without doing any research of their own. The ones with the agenda are either traitors or idealists or both, but without their ignorant followers, they would be harmless. I hate to sound so negative, but damn, it has gotten to that point…it has to be said!
Perfectly logical Primer, therefore in liberal mind think we must not do it.
I am glad you said it. Truth sometimes sucks, but it does not mean that is is not truth.

ergo the reverse barometer. if you spend the better part of your life wrong about things, wouldn't it make sense if people just naturally went the other way?

LOL!
Good for you!
I have to stop that. Logic will get you nowhere in the new "Amerika". I'm not that smart to begin with, but I'm still having a huge problem dumbing down to liberal logic levels. Maybe a hammer blow to the head would help!?!? Works for Joe Biden………………
If islam is the religion of peace (Bwahaha) then where is the condemnation from muslim's in this country over the rape of the little girl. Non-Muslims are outraged at this crime. The response from the muslim community in America has been deafening in it's silence. There silence speaks volumes about islam………..
I'm sure the media would love to have you believe that they were the children of soldiers suffering from PTSD.
To be a illogical liberal “man” one might consider castration, then you can be in tune to your feminine side, and cuts down on procreation. What was that Jack Nicholson line in, “As Good as it Gets,” to paraphrase, “I think of a man and takeaway reason and accountability.” Perhaps this is a liberal insight maybe this would help?
I often think of that line when trying to talk to a liberal…
Seems to me this is how the news was dribbled out:
Salcious: 4 boys brutally rape girl
Audacious: Father asks state to take daughter because she is defiled and a stain on the family.
—- hmmmm… that sounds familiar. Who does that? I guess we will have to admit it was not one
of those nasty Christians.
Silence: Let's not talk about the nationality of the boys. The rapists. In fact let's concentrate on that dad. What rape? Ohhhh. that thing. – yeah – it was 4 boys from Liberia. You know where America repatriated slaves to.
Victim: That 8 year old was a victim of American slavery and its far reaching after effects. Once again America is outed as the true demon. The raper of 8 year olds.

"What is wrong with our leaders? Are they worried that they won’t be invited to those cool Ramadan parties? "
2 small ideas on that:
First, I think when Bush came out and talked about how peaceful most Muslims are – I think he thought there would be a massive lashing out on normal walking the street Muslims. The press certainly suggested it – especially the gun owners! As usual politicians are disconnected from reality. Their calls for calm were not what kept muslims from being gunned down, it was the basic decency of our country and her people. What DID get to us was no Muslim group denouncing it. It still wrankles me. We also did not like the lovefest with the Saudis. We smelled a rat. Yep, dumb old Americans knew BS when we saw it. That leads me to…
Second. We need their oil. Can't very well call them out or hold them to account or see to it that they cannot come to America or do biz with America until we get things sorted out. If ever there was a time to cram down energy independence it was then. Nope. The view from Kennedy's compound and 20 miles off shore in FL and CA were more important than being hostage to folks that would gladly lop off our heads and danced in the streets when thousands of Americans were killed.
Ick.
What is so sad is these are the type of people we bring into this country as oppressed refugees. Talk about under mining our society!
Oil.
And what the left does not understand, is that their lifestyles are on of the main reasons we are despised by the radical Muslims and the libs would be the first targets, given the chance.
Devils advocate: “So …what does that prove?” The only way to get a liberal to understand your math is when the Islamic goon has the knife at their throats.
Dear liberals,
These people hate our way of life. If they saw an American on the street (even one who was Muslim) they would not think twice about slitting that "infidel's" throat. Any place where the draconian Sharia Law is not the law of the land is their sworn enemy, and the fundamentalists have been successful in Europe by intimidating people into accepting Sharia Law.
Yes, the oh-so-tolerant and oh-so-cultured Europe you libs gloat over, THAT Europe. Did you know France has 751 Muslim no-go zones over which the French state has no control? How about Britain has ethnic no-go areas for soldiers to wear their military gear, so as not to "risk offending minorities"? They want to take away your freedom, your way of life, your Starbucks, and even your precious Prius.
The allegiance of convenience we see between Islam and Marxism (however closeted) ultimately comes from both having a model of wealth as something which is acquired, as opposed to the Judeo-Christian wealth-creation model. Does someone have something better than what you have? Smash them and take it! This was the lesson preached by both Marx and Muhammad.
the trouble with illogic is that it isn't always the reverse of logic as much as the emotional perversion of same. So your point is well taken…
You ask:
"Now I understand that any country that keeps electing people like Bill Clinton, Barney Frank, Barbara Boxer and Barack Obama, the killer B’s as it were, doesn’t have terribly high standards, but assuming we have any at all, will someone please explain how degenerates like these get into the country?"
"Law Enforcement" enables them.
If we were thinking long-term, we would put serious restrictions on the immigration Muslim males, but leave the door wide open for females fleeing Islamic states. Islam isn't the only one who can fight using demographics…

On that note, I first heard about these Liberian rapist cowards on the blog, What About Our Daughters:
http://www.whataboutourdaughters.com/2009/07/dont...
I applauded the guest moderator, Faith (aka fdow), for having the guts to treat Black rapists as terrorists instead of misunderstood victims.
Unfortunately, Faith revealed herself to be a pro-gay Black feminazi. So, she uses the rape case as an opportunity to browbeat White America and Black Christians for their racism and homophobia, respectively. Interestingly, Faith glosses over the Muslim beliefs of the Liberian rapists despite Islam encouraging the abuse and even murder of women and homosexuals.
Once again, political correctness trumps common sense and self preservation.
JamesB, you missed that one about Opie. He lives in Connecticut, and is the least Hollywood guy in Hollywood!
That aside, Islam is the oinly major religion that demands the expansion of their dominion and the conversion of unbelievers by the use of violence and murder. It is in their "Holy" book. Frightening really.
Great post Bert!
I read the article. She could not even muster outrage? Either she is full of it, delusional or no… she is full o fit.
I loath that sort of woman. Sorry. Ya know what though – I bet that little girl is KEENLY aware of how to self preserve. Complete crap that she has to learn that so early and in such a violent and ugly way. The whole thing – every bit – is shameful.

Is that why my reservation at Mecca's "Grand Infidel Hotel and Spa" was abruptly cancelled? Dang it all to hell…I was so looking forward to the *goat guts* cookout and camel rides.
want to really sock it to the muslim world? support U.S. made renewable energy, and stop buying middle east oil. without oil money, countries like saudi arabia can't fund terrorist groups like al q. simple.
and let's be somewhat reasonable here. there are millions of reasonable, non-violent muslims, just like there are millions of reasonable, non-violent christians. it is the evangelical or fundamentalist branches of both who cause the violence. that's where our attention should be focused, not on some knee-jerk, reactionary condemnation of about 1.5 billion people spread all over the globe.
I have Muslim family members whose behavior wouldn't be recognized as Islamic by any standard, but who still feel a need to call Islam their religion, and I think that's the case with many Muslims. But that doesn't exempt them from criticism, especially when they express indifference about Muslim murderers who kill in their shared religion's name, and basically don't want to hear of it. One of the major reasons that Westernized Muslims give to their leaving the religion is that they finally got around to reading the Koran. I can't say that there's one family member of mine who has actually read the book they purport to live by, but I'd very much look forward to a conversation with one of them after they finish it.

I agree 100% on starving the beast by cutting off oil purchases. We could have done it by 20 years ago if the radicals hadn't killed nuclear power. Now the number of people dead in wars over oil is hundreds of thousands of times greater than all the people killed by nuclear power. Thanks, environmentalists!
However….
Are you really saying there are as many armed, violent extremist Christian groups causing as much trouble as the Muslims across the globe? Because if you are, I'm going to laugh until the men in white coats come for me.
Read about Islam. There can be no such thing as a "moderate" Muslim. The Koran must be followed in every detail and according to the imam's interpretations codified as law, or you are not a Muslim, no matter how much you say you are, and are marked for death under sharia. In Islam, there is no such thing as the secular world. Everything from schools to government to courts are religious. And one of the requirements of all Muslims is to spread Muslim control of the world by any means necessary, including the sword.
I understand everyone wants to be tolerant, but there really is no place for practicing Muslims in America. They do not fit in, do not want to follow our laws, and are openly and arrogantly demanding we bow to their demands, that we make changes to our culture and society for their benefit. We wouldn't be allowed to do that in their countries, so why should they be allowed to do that here?
If Islam goes through a Reformation as Christianity did, and a reformed Islam comes out of it that is more compatible with Western Civilization, then fine. They'll be as welcome here as Hindus, Buddhists, whatever. As of now they are not suitable traveling companions for us on the road to the future.
How did we let people like these into our country?
It is due to the fact that we have lost the ability to do "Critical Thinking" We only care about feelings. Step one thinking. Tingles up your leg thinking. We stopped investing in the future. We have turned to short term investing. What is in it for me today thinking. We stopped raising our children and became children ourselves.
It is the same way we just allowed a Sharia ETF to be traded on the stock exchange that only invests in companies that follow Sharia Law.
The world would be better served if the father took his own life for the disgrace of not protecting his daughter.
'Radical Islam', 'Totalitarian Islam', 'Political Islam' IS Islam, for Islam itself is radical, political, totalitarian. Look at the barbaric Sharia Law, that's not a deviation of Islam, it's normative Islamic law in practice. Look at Jihad, if there were no Jihad, there would be no Islam, which is the only way Islam was able to spread, which tells us its true meaning. What's the difference between Islam and Islamism? Three letters. They say Islam, we say anything but Islam as such, which makes even the most well-meaning among us part of the problem in understanding what we're facing. And yes, while Islam is Islam, individual Muslims are a different story, some devout, most not, but do any of us know of any serious movement of Muslims who have fought Jihad, ideologically or otherwise? Most Muslims are sheep to their jihadist wolves, and if they were able, Islamically speaking, to repudiate Osama bin Laden, they would have done so by now. It had to be said.
Thanks, Sanmon
And StanH, I'm with you, but there's only so much ink in a bottle.
yeah right…all those Christians flying planes into buildings, all those Christians blowing up pizza stores in Israel, school buses…all those Christians beheading journalists, and one could go on…are you just stupid? or do you really believe there's anything remotely like equivalence?
What's wrong with our Leaders? Theirs not a pair of coglioni's to be found between any of them. They live in terror of offending anyone. There's an old saying we all know it "Nice Guys Finish Last" only when your in a knife fight to the death with grim ,implacable, ruthless Islamic Killers you just finish Dead. The Great Sensitive Liberals in this country especially the Hebraic ones,please note that Islam willingly fought along side of the Nazi's in Europe and the Middle East. So your stock with them is about zip point dodo.There should be an amendment to the Constitution that states" Liberals have nothing to say about Foreign Policy". I can only wish. Islam might be a great religion but not in the hands of Terrorist Jihadists.That terrible story about the rape of the 8 year old tells me Islam is a lot short on the quality of Mercy for themselves and theirs much less for you and yours.
how about christians dropping atomic bombs, napalm, a thousand different kinds of incendiary devices on innocent civilians? but it's always ok when WE do it, right? assuming that you voluntarily choose to ignore section 11 of the treaty of tripoli and insist that this is a "christian" country, then counting up the number of murders committed in "god's name" adds up to WAY more than the few thousands of deaths at the hands of muslim extremists. which is NOT to in any way lessen the insane criminality of what THEY did. i'm saying that it's wrong in both cases. when you allow your foreign policy or neo-political actions to be dictated by religious doctrine and hubris, you are lower than human. all wars are fought over either religion, or resources… the second reason is understandable, the first is sheer madness.
you don't know many muslims personally, do you. because if you did, you wouldn't spout that bigoted nonsense.
Burt, here's a stomach-turning combo of islamic fascism and collegiate cowardice.
Wouldn't want to incur some man-caused disasters by really standing up for free speech.
Muslims understand that their religion calls for destruction of other faiths, but they will never admit so in public even if they don't agree with its ideology. If they do and caught, they know there will be repercussions. Sounds like unions…
everyone keeps saying freedom of religion, tolerence. But all i see is them trying to push the acceptance of the muslims in our society, a lot of places are taking down the crosses and American flags because the muslims find it offensive. I find it offensive when they take down symbols of my beliefs to put up arrows showing the way to Mecca. In colleges and airports and librarys around our great nation they are doing this. This is suppose to be a melting pot of faiths, and backgrounds. Why are we ignoring the American way. We can't even put up the Nativaty Scenes on public property but we can always show the way to Mecca.
Turn your back on Islamo-fascist at your own peril.

Muslims are murdering Animists In Sudan
Muslims are fighting Hindus in Kashmir

Sunni Muslims are killing Shiite Muslims in Iraq
Shiite Muslims are killing Sunni Muslims in Iraq
Muslims blew up Anglicans in England
Did I leave anybody out?
When they get mad at us, the Islamists call us "Crusaders". How revealing. That would be like us having called them 'Moors' after 9/11. Talk about holding grudges! (Not a very Christian attitude…whoops!) Sort of reminds me of how liberals and atheists constantly talk about what a bad influence religion has had on society, then give 'The Inquisition' and the Salem witch trials as their examples! Hello?!? Can we at least get into this century when we discuss genuine issues of religious injustice – even if can't talk about the 6-foot-plus Muslim in the room?
nukes? are you serious? That was WW2…the US was attacked, we developed nukes to deploy against Germany, and then used them against Japan in order to stop the enormous blood letting that was going on…I'm here because of it. My father fought his way across Europe from the North African landings to Normandy to the Remagen Bridge to liberating Dachau…he was in holding and was going to be sent to the Pacific for the invasion of Japan…and then the war ended.
I don't usually engage in ad hominem replies but in your case I will change…you're a moral moron and an historical illiterate. I specifically mentioned people who take hostages and then saw their heads off…for the camera, for the publicity…even the Japanese didn't do that, they did it in private. If you think that equates with Christian action during time of all out war…then, please, you are a simpleton.

I've said it before, I'll say it again; if Islam is a peaceful religion why doesn't Ron Howard take his cameras to the biggest mosque in Mecca and let the fiction roll! No problem going to Rome and making a bunch of fiction there using authentic backdrops. He won't because he's either (A) a coward, or (B) he knows that a massive car bomb will be set off out in front of his Hollywood mansion.
ISALAM KILLS; that is what it does to non-believers that get *in the way*. Wacky Jehova's Witnesses? Try murderous Muslims on your front door!
But that’s to be expected when people get their information from Bill Maher and Jon Stewart and their talking points from the likes of Bono and the Dixie Chicks.
This is as opposed to a television writer who doesn't yet seem to have noticed that the previous administration invaded the wrong country.
Our leader is the pied piper.
Justifiable. Big Bad American SUV's cause Global Warming…
Can I punch that little girl's father in the face? That wouldn't be a bad thing, right? We could call it feminism. Assault? No, silly, it's not assault when a woman hits a man!
OMG, I rly wanna hit him. Like, so much.
I've been in muslim countries, and I can tell you this from firsthand observation: the difference between the individuals is the degree to which they take their hateful religious crap seriously. I worked over there with a Saudi civilian who had been in the States for ten years while going to college. He was able to finish a bachelors degree in that amount of time. Lived in freaking San Francisco, of all places, then had to move back to Dhahran because of his family. He was a really nice guy. But not, I suspect, a very good muslim.
Your not the only one.
They should take care of the girl and get her father the hell back where he belongs, send the rapists after they have been slapped on the wrist (we know that will happen) as well.
That's because either they agree with what's carried out or their scared to death to speak up.One or the other or a mixture of both. Unlike us, they live it and have no illusions about who and what they really are and I'm afraid a lot of it Ain't Pretty Brother.
I'm thinking there might be a line.
No when the blade is about 5 inches in their throats. Then Maybe… Maybe.
It definitely brings to mind the old saying about those forgetting history are doomed to repeat it. The last Dim administration – yes, the Clintonistas, brought us the situation in Somalia (already in existence, but they mutated/ escalated), Haiti, Bosnia & Kosovo. These were all supposed to be feel-good military interventions, what, for the children? Anyway, these four are still open sores, we still have a military presence in Bosnia & Kosovo, and we're still pumping all kinds of aid into both Haiti & Somalia through different means (DOS, USAID, etc.). The Dims are all in favor of the usual Uncle Sugar solution to any world problem – throw enough money at it and it will go away. They've just upped the ante – using the military as the vehicle and the insurance that it will work. Unfortunately, as we're perceived as being weaker (mainly because of the interventions themselves), the presence of our military is taken less seriously, putting them at higher risk. But the Dims don't care about that – that's all the military is good for in their eyes.
Islam is what Islam does.

i'm sorry you are unable to have a mature discussion without resorting to name calling, but regardless, i'm going to take serious issue with your interpretations of the events during ww2. we used the atomic bomb not to end the war, but to send a message to russia that we were going to come out of this thing as THE superpower; we were also to have control of southeast asia. japan was willing to agree to a conditional surrender several months before hiroshima and nagasaki, the only condition being that we recognize their emperor as their spiritual leader. we refused, and wound up vaporizing a quarter of a million citizens. not cool. furthermore, yes, we were "attacked," but we know now that pearl harbor was a pretext event that allowed fdr to convince a largely isolationist population that entering the war was in the best u.s. interests. there is ample REAL evidence (i.e. not some whacko left-wing conspiracy) that we knew this attack was coming, and presto, we went from being 80% against involvement to nearly 100% for it. magic. and the notion that we were fighting fascism is laughable. hitler had already murdered 1.5 million jews before we fired a shot. we sold oil to mussolini when he fought ethiopia. our social policies at home still reeked of racial and ethnic bias. it's comforting to believe the history books about all these things, but it's not really the truth, when it comes right down to it. before you call me a moron or historically ignorant, perhaps you should do some REAL research on our political and military involvement and stop going by historical sources like your high school history book and tales told to you by your family. one soldier's war stories, does not an objective historical analysis make.
-sigh- Articles like this make we want to quit reading Big Hollywood. I'm an Iraq war vet who fought in Diyala province in Iraq. This tool(the author) has sat on his ass in the San Fernando valley or the LA area pretty much his whole life doing absolutely 0 for his country while making big $$$$, and apparently is ready to launch the entire muslim population into outer space. This is the exact kind of far-right wing ideology this country can no longer afford. Yes, Muslims are different. Yes, they have their own wacko element. But a majority of the Iraqis I met in Diyala were indeed peace loving people who only wanted to be left alone. As for his reference to the rape of the girl, I seem to recall the white guys who dragged a black guy behind a truck in Texas identifying themselves as "christians". The point, people, is that every religion has it's extremist elements that do abhorrent things. Muslim extremism is under the largest microscope on earth since 9/11. How many good stories do you see about peaceful muslims? Few to none. You fat, lazy, do-nothing americans who watch T.V. all day are being propagandized by people exactly like Prelutsky who has probably never had a substantive conversation with a Muslim in his life. He makes his mind up based off of what he sees and hears in the media without doing much in the way of research.
I dislike Obama and (most of) the left as much as anyone, but the comparisons in this piece make me want to throw up. In our insulated little existence(the USA) we tend to be afraid of and attack anything we don't understand. Muslims are just another example. Liberals are more dangerous than Hezbollah and Al Qaeda?? WOW. I was in firefights in Baquba against elements of Al-Qaeda in Iraq and don't recall seeing Henry Waxmans loony a$$ firing an AK back at me. Nor did I bump into Pelotox burying 155mm rounds next to bridges. Extremism goes both ways people, and Prelutskys terrible effort here gets filed right into the, "wacky,angry old man, right-wing nutjob" category that sits right next to my, "tree-hugging, socialist, dirty, self-hating, young hipster" category. They are one in the same as far as I'm concerned.
excellent reply…
And you are no doubt correct as well. In short it comes to this: The organized Left and it's international component basically hate- and distrust- the US military. First of all their goals are in conflict, and second it is a racist, imperialistic, sexist (blah blah etc) organization that is ONLY welcome when it's officially neutered. As Albright said after becoming SecState when she was told the military was not prepared to be 'meals on wheels'…
\”Then what good are they?\”
There you have it. The movers and shakers of the left want nothing more than to see the American military go away.
Fools…
First of all … thank you for your service — the military truly represents the best of America.
But the following statement is absolutely appalling: "This is the exact kind of far-right wing ideology this country can no longer afford. Yes, Muslims are different. Yes, they have their own wacko element. But a majority of the Iraqis I met in Diyala were indeed peace loving people who only wanted to be left alone.

Here's the HUGE problem with what you said: Jihad — and Sharia law — is ordained by Allah — it is a Muslim's duty to wage it on the infidel. There no such call to arms in the teachings of Jesus Christ. If you can find somewhere Jesus tells his followers to kill, convert, or enslave those who do not adhere to his ways, please let me know. I think you'll find that the moral equivalence you draw here is COMPLETELY wrong.
You can insult and call us "fat" and "lazy" all you want, but I've read a handful of translations of the Quran, and have spent the last eight years reading about Islam. AND if you want stories of Muslims doing good things, turn on CNN — ESPECIALLY its "God's Warriors" series.
And liberals ARE almost more dangerous that Hezbollan and Al Qaeda because they're Americans seeking to transform our culture by twisting our laws and turning people each other with class warfare and charges of racism among other disgusting tactics. Rebuilding buildings after an attack is much easier that repealing Card Check, Can and Trade, Obamacare, and other Communist efforts.
I'm not railing against christians. I'm merely contrasting what Prelutsky said. There is a lot of BS in the Koran. But the fact is that a vast, vast majority of muslims adhere to the more peaceful teachings contained within that book. When you paint all of those people(muslims) with a broad brush you're being ignorant. Ever heard of Morocco? Ever been to Turkey?? I have. What about the revolutionaries in Iran currently?Are they evil jihadis?. My dad did time in Turkey while in the Air Force and you could literally leave your door unlocked whenever you left because it's so safe there. There's almost no place left like that in the US, and I grew up primarily in small town America. The fact is that the wahhabis sect is the one primarily waging this Jihad you refer to. Not run-of-the-mill muslims who are simply way to busy trying to scrape together a meager existence. Life in Iraq,with few exceptions, is trying to feed your family in any way possible. Much of the insurgency was funded with wahhabist/Al-Qaeda $$$ and soldiered by men who needed money to survive, even if they didn't believe(and most didn't) in the jihadi BS their cowardly leaders espoused. The same fighters are being funded in Af-Pak now by the opium trade. Sharia is indeed evil. But it's NOT a populist movement. It's a movement guided by fear, fear of some guy murdering your whole family if you try to send your daughter to school. In short, it's the leadership and their hard-core followers, which happen to be a small minority even in countries like Afgh/Pak/Egypt/Syria-etc. The regular local populations of these countries are powerless because the corrupt,extreme leadership has all the guns and all the money. They stay in power by ruling over despotic regimes that don't allow anybody to get educated or succeed at anything other than staying alive. So while you're reading Star wars comic books and cherry picking verses out of the Koran, regular Muslims are being slaughtered and herded, tortured and beaten by the powers that be in their respective countries. This is what America is fighting, not Islam in general. Right wing nut-jobs like you merely make this fight harder.
As for watching some show on TV, I don't watch crappy leftist CNN. Nor do I watch any of the other drivel that appears in the mainstream media. America is the greatest place on earth, I know because I've seen and lived other parts of it. But I also know that extremism rears its ugly head in many forms, and that includes arrogant ignorance, of the same kind you've read in this piece and the same kind you display when attacking what I said.
Card check(terrible), Cap & tax(terrible), Obamacare(terrible), are left wing theories on improving our nation which happen to be hair-brained at best. None of these bills have cleared both houses yet and probably never will in their current forms.These theories ARE NOT comparable to beheadings, mass executions, and other atrocities/extremism of the sort. We the people still have the power to vote these d-bags out of office and tell them what we feel, as is happening in town halls every day. I've pulled body pieces out of the Tigris river. I've watched as women and children have been SCRAPED off the ground with shovels after car-bomb blasts. There is NO effing comparison. NONE. What a vast majority of the muslims in the world do not have are those very rights I described before. They are held in the iron grip of despotism, ignorance, and the extremism of a very few. That's reality, and the sooner you figure this out the better we'll all be.
That's EXACTLY what you did — you drew a moral equivalence between Islam and Christianity. I will respond to that anywhere I see it.
Keep the insults coming if you have to, man — it doesn't bother me. And thanks, but I'll keep fighting the advancement of political correctness that demonizes anyone that criticizes Islam. People have to start seeing the truth behind Islam, or one day we won't recognize our country. You say Sharia law is "evil" — what do you think Islamists are trying to establish here in the States? There is no separation between the political and the religious in Islam.
You say I'm making the fight harder??? That's hilarious! Every day, Islamists work to push the public against the war effort, and many of our politicians are complicit. Our own president once wrote that the failure of the U.S. to empathize with terrorists led to 9/11. Letting Islam advance its culture here makes your job harder — not me standing up for my country.
And I don't cherry-pick passages from the Quran. Just read the last Sura of the Quran, and see if I'm "cherry-picking." There may be people who don't pay attention to these passages, but it's in the book. — I just wish someone would rise up and reform this "religion".
You illustrate the horrible things you have seen — and that Muslims are being herded and slaughtered. I'm pretty sure Muslims themselves are perpetrating these crimes. You're proving my points. Those people are following the Quran — that's ALL I'm saying. You are kidding yourself if you don't believe it — read it yourself. I don't care how many people are advancing this or if its "populist" as you say. It's till ordained in the Quran — that is not up for debate. I never condemned any of the Muslims who want to lead a peaceful life, but they have to be held a little accountable too. I pray for them.
And have you ever read about the Treaty of Hudaybiyyah? I believe there are many Muslims who don't want to wage jihad, but after learning that little passage, it's hard not to look at anyone associated with the religion with a close eye.
And you're right — leftists are not comparable to the type of evil you have seen. The left — like Islam — wants to change this country into something it is not.
God bless you, man — and your service to this country. This "right-wing nut job" will keep learning more about Islam, and fighting its advancement here at home … and find time to read Star Wars comics too!
I may not have seen the things you have seen. But have you read anything by Robert Spencer or Brigit Gabriel?
Symple19: It isn't a question of what extremists do or don't do. The schmucks who dragged the black man behind their truck weren't behaving as Christians. Muslims who perform genital mutilation on young girls are behaving as they are expected to. Suicide bombers are behaving that way because that is what their religion asks of them. The Muslims who flew the planes into the Twin Towers were not aberrations. The members of Hamas and Hezbollah are not aberrations. I'm glad you met so many nice Muslims in Iraq. I'm sure you could have met a lot of nice ones in America, too. And perhaps you would not have been dismayed to discover how many of them were financing the ones who were trying to kill you over there. I assume you're aware of how many Muslim charities were closed down by the F.B.I. And didn't it surprise you at all that in the wake of 9/11, American Islamics kept whining about racial profiling, but didn't pass the hat at any of their mosques to raise money for a reward for Osama bin Laden, dead or alive. Sincerely, Burt Prelutsky
Dear Mr. Prelutsky,
I'm a fan of many of the shows you have written for, and remain so. I'm also a practicing Muslim. I respectfully suggest that you're conflating a lot of very disparate points. The most glaring, is the conflating of "radical Islam" with the outlook and conduct of Muslims in general.
I'd be happy to engage further.
Best wishes,
Omer M

WAIT A MINUTE! Any good history student at college/high school will tell you that our teachers tell us to never forget our quotations. In this instance i would give you a F+. Next time please provide some evidence-in fact i'll even suggest the source-GIVE ME A PASSAGE (VERSE NUMBER INCLUDED) FROM THE KORAN (http://www.usc.edu/dept/MSA/quran/ is a good site for english interpretation) WHICH EVEN HINTS AT WHAT YOU AND THE REST OF YOUR MELODRAMATIC PALS ON THIS SITE HAVE WRITTEN. PS: WHOLE PASSAGES AND NOT OUT-OF-CONTEXT QUOTES (especially the war ones theyre the best). IF YOU CANT THEN YOUR ALL HYPOCRITES AND THE LIBERALS ARE RIGHT! WELCOME TO ISLAM.
what about the jewish invaders? or the americans?
JEWISH:invasion of israel even though there own holy book has said that jews had to stay in exile until the return of the messiah (yes its true – try google). So the zionists of today (did u know that the founders were atheists) deny there own book for greed.
Americans:forgot about the recent atrocities thats self explanatory. what about the invasions of the red indians. the supressions of the blacks. etc.
My point isnt to race hate-im just simply stating the facts that it isnt just muslim extremists who are corrupt we can go on and on.
Christians:Crusders – enough said. Even the Nazis were christians (yes they were). Search on google because i havent got the time – ie the uniforms of the SS had prominent crosses alongside there stickers and medals.

AS FOR HONOUR KILLINGS-THESE ARE A CULTURAL ISSUE NOT ISLAMIC – THESE SORT OF THINGS HAVE BEEN INHERITED FROM IDEALOGIES PRIOR TO ISLAM-IN FACT HINDUS/SIKHS HAVE A SIMILAR CODE OF HONOUR THAT SOME MUSLIMS MAY SHARE BUT HAS BEEN INHERITED FROM THE OOOLD CULTURE-BUT THIS IS NOT THE ISLAMIC WAY- IN FACT CULTURE HAS NO WEIGHT IN ISLAM SINCE ISLAM ISNT CULTURAL IT TRANGRESSES ALL RACE/CULTURAL CONCEPTIONS.
WELCOME TO ISLAM. PS DONT FORGOT TO FIND MY QUOTATIONS ABOUT THE 'BARBARITY' OF ISLAM.
IntenseDebate Notification <DIV dir=ltr align=left>OK…..here's the deal I can see where your coming from. There are unscrupulous men, who through their actions have caused wars and general mayhem down through history into the present time….so that makes it OK for the BLOOD religionist to wage war on innocent women and children…..GIVE ME A BREAK….which side of your brain are you thinking with?? IT'S NOT OK for Jews to kill Muslims, IT'S NOT OK for Muslims to kill Christians, IT'S NOT OK for Christians to kill Muslims, IT'S NOT OK….just because English and French crusaders invaded the middle east hundreds of years ago…..for any reason….your argument has no validity.</DIV>
