Writing for CNN, David Perry harangued against Sarah Palin’s statement during her speech at the NRA:
Sarah Palin stood before the huge crowd at the 2014 National Rifle Association annual meeting and condemned liberals for coddling terrorists. She loaded her speech with religious metaphors, claiming that true leaders would put “the fear of God in our enemies.” She said, “They obviously have information on plots to carry out jihad. Oh, but you can’t offend them, can’t make them feel uncomfortable, not even a smidgen. Well, if I were in charge, they would know that waterboarding is how we baptize terrorists.”
Then he points out: On Wednesday, the National Religious Campaign against Torture released a powerful condemnation of the speech. To Palin, the organization’s executive director wrote, “Your statements play into a false narrative conveying that somehow, the conflict between the United States and the terrorist cells is a conflict between Christianity and Islam, or Islam and ‘the West.’ ”
If I were David Perry I’d look real close not only at the National Religious Campaign against Torture (which seems disturbingly close to a fanatical Islamist organization itself) but at that absurd statement: the conflict between the United States and the terrorist cells is a conflict between Christianity and Islam, or Islam and ‘the West.
Well of course it is! And though they meant it otherwise, truer words were never spoken.
Islam has no room for infidels – which is defined as anyone who doesn’t believe in Islam. Folks, that’s every Christian! So if somehow you are under the mistaken belief that the war on terror isn’t about Christians vs. Islam or the West vs. Islam – WAKE UP!
The Islamists want all of you either to embrace Islam or be killed.
