O, the advantages to being a self-decribed persecuted class enjoying protected status! Being Muslim means never having to say you're sorry--either crimes and outrages have NOTHING to do with one's religion, even if done in the name and for the sake of same; or it's predeictably, invariably the fault of Islamofauxbia, Western hubris, colonialist legacy, Christian tarnish or hypocracy, or catch-all oppression of Muslims. Ameen!

Typo: should read "hypocrisy."

Readers would do well to re-visit Dr. M. Scott Peck's book "People of the Lie," which is one psychologist's attempt to characterize human evil. While Dr. Peck did not include Islamists in his associations with evil, the connections will be apparent to the reader.

Regarding truth he writes, "The evil hate the light -- the light of goodness that shows them up, the light of scrutiny that exposes them, the light of truth that penetrates their deception." "The evil are 'the people of the lie,' deceiving others as they also build layer upon layer of self-deception. While evil people are still to be feared, they are also to be pitied. Forever fleeing the light of self-exposure and the voice of their own conscience, they are the most frightened of human beings."

This is the classic M.O. of muslims around this globe. They continually are the aggressors and when after (usually months, years and even decades in some instances) of them torturing and beheading people - the true victims fight back that is when the muslims cry, "waaaaa, we are the victims, waaaaa not the ones that we have laid bare due to our continual aggressions. For our aggression is not really aggression - it is the deeds that our 'prophet' told us to do! How dare you tell us that we are the aggressors (while that muslim goes and finds a child that he hid behind to show us as propaganda that was accidentally killed) see our children die by the hands of the kufir!!"

And our media gobbles up that story because the muslims certainly whine a good whine. And it makes for a good story and a good picture when it is easier for the reporters to not move from their motels because they are afraid of the violence that islam creates in the areas that they have to go to get the story. Of course, they don't go any further than this juicy story because if they did they would be in a conundrum! Oh what to do?! Is that muslim speaking the truth or the real victims because of course, those reporters certainly didn't do any reporting of the muslims who committed the first of the violence! Who wants to defend a Christian, or a Jew, or a Buddhist?! They don't whine good enough!!!

(oh, and they aren't owning enough of the media's stocks to call like the saudis do to tell us what to cover and how to describe the muslim aggressors either)

CAIR needs to meet another acronym-RICO.

Use RICO
Islamsforlosers - 100%

Has anyone suggested to Mr. Savage that he should invoke RICO laws in his lawsuit or structure it in a way that could possibly open the door to a US gov't suit against CAIR and others using RICO statutes?

Fraudulent muslims - whoa, that's something NEW. Who would have thunk!

From The Pope's adress this week:

"There is also a “view of tolerance and pluralism” in today’s world that says that believing the Truth exists is an “attack on tolerance and the freedom of man,” Benedict said. If, however, truth is cancelled, is man not a being deprived of meaning? Do we not force ourselves and the world into a meaningless relativism?" "
