Politic?

This is a blog dedicated to a personal interpretation of political news of the day. I attempt to be as knowledgeable as possible before commenting and committing my thoughts to a day's communication.

Hatefully Atheist In His Own Words

"I hate Islam just as much as Christianity, but they have the right to worship in this country just as much as any others do."
"[As for the Christians, the Jews and the Muslims battling non-believers]I wish they would exterminate each other!"
"I guess after the horrible tragedy early this week [2011 attack on U.S. Rep. Gabrielle Giffords] in Arizona, all Glock pistols will officially be labelled 'assault weapons'. While I never cared for Glocks personally, it stinks that anyone would blame a firearm rather than the operator of such firearm for such a terrible act. I think I'll start blaming McDonalds for my weight problem, Christianity for the Ku Klux Klan, and Islam for terrorism."

Doesn't sound much like someone suffering from severe Islamophobia. Sounds more like a civil libertarian with a special atheist-gun-loving twist. And perhaps someone as well imbued with a bad temper on a short fuse.

He wrote on his blog in defence of the proposed construction of a mosque near the World Trade Center site in New York, where people were incredulous with dismay and anger over the arrogant proposal of the very religion that related to the 9/11 carnage seeking to make its territorial statement in the near vicinity.

There are uncountable numbers of Islamist terrorist atrocities taking place all over the world. From the Middle East to North Africa, from Europe to North America, from Asia to Oceania, episodes of starkly inhumane carnage rampage across the world.

Muslims are dismayed that their religion has been linked to destruction and mass murder, to threats against the established world order, to the dissolution of nation borders faulting to a deadly Caliphate.

So when a dreadful event, rare in its occurrence hits the news -- where three young Muslim Americans are killed by a deranged man who clearly is not suffering from hatred of Muslims -- the Islamic world sits up and howls that Muslims are being targeted.

Those howls are strangely muted when Islamists slaughter Muslims, a truly peculiar phenomenon of indifference when the victims are Muslims and so are their killers.
