Hugo what planet are you living on?
The EU which is comprised of the most left leaning and secular governments on earth have repeatedly gone on record to say Islam is a religion of peace publicly even after the Tube bombings in England, the Terrorist attack in Spain, the riots after the Mohammaed cartoons in Denmark, the murder of Theo Van Gogh in the netherlands, even after being stabbed by a muslim for being a homosexual- the former gay Mayor of Paris said exactly that. Paradoxically, the left joins hands with a religion that would exterminate the very fabric of liberal thought and all of its adherents. The reason why Bush and every other world leader has to go on record to say that is because either (A) They dont want left leaning douchebags and other victimization groups to accuse them of discriminating against Islam or (B) They have to say it because they care about the worlds perception ala choice (A) or (C) They are geniunenly brainwashed and delusional like most of Europe, all of Canada and half of America.
Before the invasion of Iraq, name your terrorist catastrophe from the first WTC bombings to the bombing of the USS cole, the American Embassy in Kenya, the numerous and almost daily terrorist attacks in Israel= All American heads of state have said Islam is a religion of peace
I could sit here all day and give you reasons why liberals are percieved the way they are, but heres a short list:
Liberals are anti Israel and staunch supporters of palastine. Liberals constantly and consistently blame terrorism on hopelessness and depression brought on by external economic factors, a lack of education and American foreign policy. Meanwhile all the Tube bombers in Brittain were middle class & college educated, Osama's number 2 is a doctor, many of the 911 hijackers were college educated and middle class etc. etc.
Liberals scramble to make sure suspected terrorists get the same rights as American citizens.
The same liberal wackjobs in California for the 9th circuit court of appeals that handed down a decision taking God out of the pledge of allegance, approved "Muslim Week" in a public school where children were forced to learn muslim prayers, dress in Muslim garb and give up sweets for Ramadan- Eklund v. Byron Union School District
The reason why liberals are labeled muslim apologists is two fold: (1) Most liberals despise the Judeo-Christian traditions of this country (2) Most liberals have an irrational and blinding hatred of the Bush administration to the point where they take the emotional rather than logical view- An enemy of my enemy is my friend. -- This is paradoxical and remarkable because if the Muslims had their way, they would convert us or kill us all as the Koran commands.- Liberals wonder why they hate us, and the answer is that the "US" they hate is mainly the liberal way of thinking- Gay marriage, abortion, Hollywood, freedom of religion, freedom of speech, sexual freedom, etc.--
Say what you will about the Neo-Cons, but they understand what we are dealing with. The leftist delusion existed long before the Iraq war and will continue long after the war is over.
