Under The Bus, PLEASE!!

The president’s top counterterrorism adviser on Wednesday called jihad a “legitimate tenet of Islam,” arguing that the term “jihadists” should not be used to describe America’s enemies.

During a speech at the Center for Strategic and International Studies, John Brennan described violent extremists as victims of “political, economic and social forces,” but said that those plotting attacks on the United States should not be described in “religious terms.”

Horseshit. The “political, economic, and social forces” that cause violent jihad are culturally induced, because pisslam sucks ass and all the countries where pisslam holds sway suck ass even worse. They can’t stand it that the entire rest of the world, even including deepest darkest Africa, is at least 1000 years more advanced then they are. Since their culture won’t allow them to question or reject their phony religion, this drives them nuts, so they strike out against the rest of the world. This is like shooting your neighbor because she owns a new BMW 740 while you get by with a 1978 Volvo 240 held together by duct tape. What makes it even worse is their awareness that a large number of those pisslamic countries are swimming in oil money, yet none of it trickles down to the poor fellah in the street or gets used to improve anything in the nation. This drives them even crazier. Then they look next door and see that the Israelis are getting rich while living in a pile of dust and rocks with no natural resources at all, doing it all by hard work and intelligence. That puts them right over the edge, and they just about self-ignite.

He repeated the administration argument that the enemy is not “terrorism,” because terrorism is a “tactic,” and not terror, because terror is a “state of mind”—though Brennan’s title, deputy national security adviser for counterterrorism and homeland security, includes the word “terrorism” in it. But then Brennan said that the word “jihad” should not be applied either.

“Nor do we describe our enemy as ‘jihadists’ or ‘Islamists’ because jihad is a holy struggle, a legitimate tenet of Islam, meaning to purify oneself or one’s community, and there is nothing holy or legitimate or Islamic about murdering innocent men, women and children,” Brennan said.

Let’s ignore that their “holy” books say that murdering men, women, and children, or capturing them and making them slaves, is exactly what jihad against the infidel is all about. Yeah yeah yeah, introspective personal enlightenment, yadda yadda yadda. Sure. But if you want to get your 72 raisins, get out your scimitar and get chopping. The surah of the sword ranks first, and the ko-ran makes the call to violence more than 100 times.

Brennan defined the enemy as members of bin Laden’s Al Qaeda network and “its terrorist affiliates.”

But Brennan argued that it would be “counterproductive” for the United States to use the term, as it would “play into the false perception” that the “murderers” leading war against the West are doing so in the name of a “holy cause.”

“Moreover, describing our enemy in religious terms would lend credence to the lie propagated by Al Qaeda and its affiliates to justify terrorism—that the United States is somehow at war against Islam,” he said.

We may not be at war with them, but pisslam is at war with us. And they tell us this, and have told us this, every single day since about 1972. Time to face a little reality here, doncha think?

The comment comes after Brennan, in a February speech in which he described his respect for the tolerance and devotion of Middle Eastern nations, referred to Jerusalem on first reference by its Arabic name, Al-Quds.

“In all my travels the city I have come to love most is al-Quds, Jerusalem, where three great faiths come together,” Brennan said at an event co-sponsored by the White House Office of Public Engagement and the Islamic Center at New York University and the Islamic Law Students Association at NYU.

Horry Crap. This loser is at the top of the pyramid. We are doomed.

Not that very many people ever read this far down, but this blog was the creation of Allan Kelly and his friend Vilmar. Vilmar moved on to his own blog some time ago, and Allan ran this place alone until his sudden and unexpected death partway through 2006. We all miss him. A lot. Even though he is gone this site will always still be more than a little bit his. We who are left to carry on the BMEWS tradition owe him a great debt of gratitude, and we hope to be able to pay that back by following his last advice to us all:

1. Keep a firm grasp of Right and Wrong
2. Stay involved with government on every level and don't let those bastards get away with a thing
3. Use every legal means to defend yourself in the event of real internal trouble, and, most importantly:
4. Keep talking to each other, whether here or elsewhere

It's been a long strange trip without you Skipper, but thanks for pointing us in the right direction and giving us a swift kick in the behind to get us going. Keep lookin' down on us, will ya? Thanks.
