And so it begins. The Liberal media is hard at work trying to downplay and spin the Muslim factor in the Fort Hood shooting.
Here is one such insidious story from the New York Times in which all the blame is shifted away from the shooter's Muslim beliefs and toward everyone else. http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/33751407...new_york_times For instance, here is a quote by another Muslim - we are supposed to see him as a victim. Playing the victim is huge in Islam. “When a white guy shoots up a post office, they call that going postal,” said Victor Benjamin II, 30, a former member of the Army. “But when a Muslim does it, they call it jihad." Oh, boohoo, poor Muslims, America just treats them so unfairly. That is why there has been no appreciable record of anti-Muslim hate crime despite 911. Notice how sneaky and insidious the NYT is in their coverage. Their propaganda techniques are so subtle, many might walk away never even noticing they have just been manipulated into believing the Muslims are the victims and the army was to blame for this whack job's actions. Say what you will about Fox but at least they are up front about their convictions and don't try to hide who they are. No, this type of subtle indoctrination is far and away more insidious than anything Fox does. |

I think all religious extremists are pieces of shit, and we'd all be better off without them (christian, muslim [especially]... all of them). But, it's not right to stereotype people of a certain religion based on the actions of the zealots of their religion. Admittedly, I haven't been following the news closely the past few days... but, do we know that this guy was a religious nut, or was he crazy person who happened to be somewhat religious? There is a difference IMO.

Okay so why aren't you complaining that the religious affiliation of every criminal isn't blasted out by the media. Why is it relevant?
What are you going to do differently if he were Jewish? or Catholic? or Protestant? or Buddhist? or Atheist? Why do you only want to be notified of Muslims? Sounds like someone has a bias... Quote:

Unless he can be linked directly to organized terror then there is nothing more to know... ...and Muslims are not at war with the United States. Some people who ARE at war with the United States happen to be Muslim. There is a significant difference. |

Uhmm, you just contradicted the fuck out of your own statement. So which of those two sentences do you really identify with? GWN |
