Peace More important than Lives

Reader comment on item: The Voice of America, Silenced on Radical Islam

Submitted by Arlinda (United States), Mar 10, 2009 at 14:53

The new administration has a new language to describe Islamic terrrorists and Jihad. No more extremism, no more Jihad and no more Islam the Religion of Submission. It's all gone.

He's ignored the Israelis and focused on his friends, his compatriots, his bros the Arabs and Islam. He begs them to consider us their friends and assures them we will treat them with respect the way they treated us on September 11th. He's, perhaps happy that only three thousand Americans were slaughtered for nothing by Islamic terrorists on Jihad.

Just like the good Marxist that he is, in the politics of multi-culturalism language is redesigned to mean something very different. Fear the word "Islam" and "Jihad" and "Extremism" and "Islamist" and "Fundamentalist" That fear of the word or not using the word makes whatever is feared more powerful is of no concern to the likes of some one who cares more for peace (and the Nobel Prize) than he does for the lives of Americans and Israelis.

And so now the genuises in the new administration have invented a new more respectful and obsequious language of respect. The Islamic terrorists know that Obama cares more about peace than he cares for the lives of the American people.

Obama is unfit for the presidency and unfit to deal with the Arabs. They look upon his pandering and his pleading as weakness and they will come after us again.
