Hold on to your seats.
Nidal Malik Hasan. Sounds Irish or German to me. How ’bout you?
12 dead, 31 wounded. Yup, another loyal, moderate American Muslim. Another loyal, moderate American Muslim serving in the U.S. military. Nope, it’s not jihad at all. Why on earth would you say that?
The Teleprompter-in-Chief addressed the situation more than three minutes into a jovial, light-hearted speech, yesterday, cautioning us racist, redneck red-staters to not "jump to conclusions until we have the facts." Obama also said that authorities are trying to figure out how this tragedy could have happened.
White House officials are trying to hunt down shovels to dig Obama's head out of the sand.
What’s that they keep telling us about how Muslims who commit terrorism aren’t the American ones? What’s that they keep telling us about how Muslims who kill Americans are only doing so because they don’t have opportunities for education or a good economic situation like they do in America? The truth is that Islamic terrorism isn't about economic deprivation or American Imperialism. It's not about Israeli occupation of Palestine or American occupation of Iraq and Afghanistan.
Islamic terrorism and Jihad is about Muslims who have believed from the beginning of the religion that everyone must become a muslim or die. And they increasingly believe that the time has come to kill anyone and everyone who doesn't agree with them. That extremist view is spreading rapidly, and as far as I'm concerned it's time to rethink our policy regarding Muslims and freedom of Religion.
I'm probably alone, here. Even among fellow conservatives and loyal readers of this blog, I may have few who are going to agree with what I'm about to say. But for the good of the country, I think it's time to ban Muslims from serving in the military. I think it's time to ban all non-citizen Muslims from the borders of our country. And it may well be time to consider expelling U.S. citizens who are Muslims from our nation. It's likely that as long as one single Muslim lives in our borders, none of us are safe from this sort of tragedy.
