No new words


Many bloggers ( Mama, Slagle, Denita, and Allah , to name a few) have posted on the Russian hostage tragedy. They have empathized with the parents' grief; they put into words the collective helplessness we all felt last week. They've pointed out the political rollerocaster that this has become for the Russian government. And, more importantly, they've voiced outrage (again) at the Religion of Peace.

There was nothing else I could add. They stated all the things I was feeling. When I was feeling. I hate to admit it, but I've almost become numb to their evil. To me, those who follow the Moon god have become nothing more than a characature of evil. For the fundamentalist Muslim,putting innocents in harms way is perfectly fine; teaching children to torment and terrorize to get your way is common place; degrading, demoralizing, and beating women is a religious experience. They are so full of hatred and brutality that one can expect nothing else from them.

Now, an Islamic cleric has stated that he supports taking women and children hostage, if it was for a just cause. This is the same imam who is part of a "celebration" honoring the 9/11 attacks. Does this surprise me? Not really.

Supposedly there are "moderate" Muslims out there (somewhere) who despise the violence and religious totalitarianism of the fanatics. Where are they? Why are they not vocal here in the States? It's because their moderation is only lip-service. If you go into almost any mosque in the US this Friday, you will probably hear condemnation of US policy, praise of the jihadi who battle the "infidels", and a call to support those who fight "in the name of Allah."

Am I wrong? Prove it. Until then, I numbly add Islam to other evils in the world. It is the job of the righteous to stand between evil and the innocent. And we are the righteous.

Comments:
J and I talked about this last night and we couldn't think of any way the world has been improved by Islam. They offer no hope on a personal level to the follower and push nothing but evil on the outside world. R
