I don’t know if George Bush Jr. was the first clown to utter that phrase, but it is off the charts moronic. The website linked in the picture below provides the accurate picture, complete with reams of data, so you can judge the phrase from an informed perspective.
If you’ve never looked into this before using non biased sites, you will probably be shocked. Of course “mainstream media” will not cover even 0.1% of this. What they do cover will be a whitewash, and/or will include various deflections and excuses.
For those that don’t like to follow links, the picture includes some summary info and just a tiny snippet of the list of attacks in the name of Islam.
The site even has a way to drill down by year and month, and again the picture has just a tiny snippet of the info available. By all means click the picture for much more.
Follow the links and spend 5 or 10 minutes perusing the records of attacks in the name of Islam, and then try making the case that those attacks come from just a small fringe and are rare. They are not remotely rare nor are they by just a small fringe.
You can also check out where the very left wing Pew Research Center took some surveys of Muslims years ago, to show how many were fine with terrorism. In the article Pew is making the case that support for terrorism among Muslims is declining, but I would suggest that is more survey respondents lying about their beliefs as the internet was exposing the information much better from the early 2000s to the mid 2000s. Keep in mind most of the internet access was dial up until after 2000.
I’ll also bet money that the support for terrorism goes up based on current events, and if Pew had used the words “Israel”, “Jews”, “Zionists”, or “USA”, they would have gotten far more support for terrorism. If you look closely at the table, you do see increases in support in some areas. Take a look at Jordan in 2005, where only 11% of the Muslim population there said terrorism was never acceptable, which was down from 26% in 2002.
The bottom line is that when people tell you they hate you, and are fine with you being killed, believe them. Multiple this by 100 when their actions back up their words, which is exactly what is happening in Israel right now.
It’s also a great example of why it is a horrible and country destroying policy to aid and abet the illegal invasion of millions of military aged men into your country. Every single invading illegal alien in this country now needs to be removed. I don’t care how long they have been here either.
