According to this report in Newsweek, the anti-Muslim hatred that has been ginned up by Rupert Murdoch's media empire is turning out to be the best recruitment tool that the Taliban has ever had.
“We talk about how America tortures with waterboarding, about the cruel confinement of Muslims in wire cages in Guantánamo, about the killing of innocent women and children in air attacks—and now America gives us another gift with its street protests to prevent a mosque from being built in New York. Showing reality always makes the best propaganda.” -- a Taliban operative named ZabihullahI hope you fuckers on the Right are really proud of yourselves over this one. You should be happy with yourselves as the Taliban and the other extremists use your anti-Islam frothings to recruit more young men to kill Americans.
What I say here goes double for those idiots in the Christian Taliban down in Florida who are planning to bun a stack of Korans on September 11th.

ReplyDeleteCan't have eternal war without a group that hates us sufficiently... it's exactly the response the right needed, although I can't credit them with that being their purpose (they aren't that cunning.).
I fully support anyone who wants to burn a koran- as long as their burning a representative sample of all the worlds 'holy books'.
It's just a damn book.
