We the Enemy

MandT over at Adgitadiaries has an excellent post discussing the continued painting of the Muslim faith with the broad brush of terrorism. With the latest bombings in London the Bush misadministration seem to be trying to ratchet it up a notch or two higher. Anyhow, worth reading the whole thing.

The Bush administration should take a clue from Sir David Manning, British Ambassador to the United States when he described Islam as a faith of "peace, reconciliation and tolerance." This important outlook, according to Youmans, is largely absent in political rhetoric on this side of the Atlantic.

A pathetic case in point is the California National Guard, who has been spying on its Moslem sympathetic citizens and issuing flyers suggesting "that dippin bullets in pig's blood and burying dead terrorists with pig entrails" is an effective means to deal with terrorism. Incredible!

"As British officials know, supporting the inherently moderate voices of most moslems serves to undermine the violent agends of fringe extremists. The first step to doing that is to de-link Islam from their terrorism."

Although president Bush has on rare occasion dignified his Office by not painting the entire Islamic nations with the same terrorist brush he has done virtually nothing to discourage his dominionist Christian fundamentalist administration from characterizing Islam as fanatical and evil. Bush's war is about colonialism, spoils of war, and compliant vassel states riding above a sub text of Christian Crusade.

Moderate Islam is turning away, not because of evil religious beliefs, but because of sound ones that define now what America has actually become in its brutal drive for oil supply--a satanic reflex, whose Fire of Freedom is a sham. Until true Americans wake up and see the truth we will see the loss of the only true weapon we have against terrorism----decent Moslem peoples.

"Yep, son, we have met the enemy and he is us." POGO
