Terrorism

“Though the new aircraft bomb is being analyzed by FBI explosives experts, the operation to obtain the device from Yemen was run by the Saudis. Nonetheless, the Obama administration immediately claimed credit, and in a now familiar pattern, details about the bomb and the Saudi double agent who penetrated al-Qaida in the Arabian Peninsula, or AQAP, were leaked to the press … Members of Congress from both parties are howling about the hemorrhage of classified details regarding how the Saudis penetrated AQAP and the bomb they recovered … And just so everyone feels good about all this, an anonymous O-Team source leaked that the FBI has opened a criminal investigation on the leaks. You can't make this stuff up. Unfortunately, the Obama administration's self-congratulatory ‘leaks’ and hollow assertions about how safe we are from form-fitting exploding underwear mask an even more serious threat to commercial aviation … The Obama administration's chest-thumping claim that it is ‘winning the fight against al-Qaida’ is hubris. Worse, the ‘institutional arrogance’ and rejection of ‘outside’ information places anyone who flies in harm's way.” (5/12/2012)

“The past decades of such incidents have shown instead that apologies are useless, and merely confirm the impression among Muslims that we are spiritually inferior, and so endorse the perverse logic that accidentally burning a book is worse than murdering our soldiers and citizens ... these double standards are counterproductive and have been proven over and over to make Muslims despise us rather than like us … This double standard also reflects incoherent thinking ... This record of appeasement, then, has encouraged many Muslims to demand from Westerners a hypersensitivity to Islam, all the while that Christians and Jews in Muslim countries are subjected to harassment, assault, vicious insult, and murder. In the West, respect for Muslim holy books and practices is supposed to be granted as a self-evident right beyond argument or debate. Yet Western ideals and principles, such as tolerance for different creeds, are derided, disrespected, and rejected as self-evident evils … Such confidence is reinforced when we acquiesce in a standard whereby burning a Qur’an or insulting Mohammed with a cartoon is worse than killing people.” (2/27/2012)

“Obama gets to reap the rewards of Bush-era terrorism policies -- policies that he, his fellow Democrats and Jane Mayer hysterically denounced at the time -- while Reagan and Bush had to deal with the consequences of Carter's Iranian policy and Clinton's bin Laden policy. According to Michael Scheuer, who ran the bin Laden unit at the CIA for many years, President Clinton was given eight to 10 chances to kill or capture bin Laden but refused to act … Bush had to deal with the ticking time bomb of Osama bin Laden left by Bill Clinton. All presidents have had to deal with the ticking time bomb set by Carter's passive acceptance of the Iranian revolution in 1979, giving Islamic lunacy its first nation-sponsor. What ticking time bombs are being set around the globe by our current Democratic president? Following the Democratic playbook, Obama's overall approach to national security is to pointlessly fling our influence and military around the globe -- in Libya, Egypt and Afghanistan -- with no evident national security purpose. Thanks to our feckless president, most of the Middle East is rapidly degenerating into a terrorist fever-swamp.” (5/5/11)

“Media reports in the aftermath of the president's announcement said the key for the American forces hunting bin Laden was one of his most trusted couriers, identified by men captured shortly after the Sept. 11 attacks. If this is true, and if those captured were taken to Guantanamo and gave up information after ‘enhanced’ interrogation techniques, denounced by then-Senator Obama and his Democratic colleagues, this would be a vindication for the policies of Vice President Dick Cheney and President George W. Bush … Let's celebrate this American victory -- it's needed in this ongoing war -- but then let's keep the pressure on and not give these terrorists a moment's rest. There is plenty more that can be done, not only in Europe, but also in this country where too many terrorists reside, plotting to kill even more innocent men, women and children.” (5/3/11) http://townhall.com/columnists/calthomas/2011/05/03/justice_has_been_done/page/full/

“You see, it is not the fault of the barbarians who murdered 20 innocent people, beheading two of them. It’s the fault of some unknown hick pastor … To say that the reason they committed such barbaric acts was ‘in response’ to anything is an act of bigotry as well as an affront to human decency and dignity … Never mind the fact that they behead their own people and stone women to death for the horrendous crime of baring an ankle. Or, you know, being the victim of a rape … We see this all the time in their constant excuse-making for terrorists … This bigotry and this meta-ethical relativism is one of the largest dangers the world faces. The world must realize that apologizing for evil, violent acts is not embracing diversity. It’s not ‘seeing both sides’ nor being culturally aware. It is embracing insanity and condoning evil. This line of thinking, which condones such barbarism and persists in delusional moral equivalency is revolting. It is excusing evil acts by taking away any culpability people have for their own actions.” (4/4/11)

“In his new book, ‘Tyranny of Silence,’ Rose explains that he asked cartoonists to submit works on Muhammad in order to stand up to ‘my perception of prevalent self-censorship among the Danish media’ on the subject of radical Islam. Now he has a target on his back. When we met in 2008, Rose summarized what summed up ‘The Cartoon Crisis.’ ‘They are basically saying, 'If you say we are violent, we are going to kill you.’ And: ‘If you give in to intimidation, you will not get less intimidation, you will get more intimidation.’" (1/2/11)

“You can't stop a terrorist attack by searching for the explosives any more than you can stop crime by taking away everyone's guns … It's similarly pointless to treat all Americans as if they're potential terrorists while trying to find and confiscate anything that could be used as a weapon … You have to search for the terrorists. Fortunately, that's the one advantage we have in this war. In a lucky stroke, all the terrorists are swarthy, foreign-born, Muslim males ... This would give us a major leg up -- if only the country weren't insane … Only because the terrorists are Muslims do we pretend not to notice who keeps trying to blow up our planes ... Two weeks ago, Napolitano ordered TSA agents to start groping women's breasts and all passengers' genitalia -- children, nuns and rape victims … It is becoming increasingly obvious that we need to keep the government as far away from airport security as possible, and not only because Janet Napolitano did her graduate work in North Korea.” (11/18/10)

“The US's denial of the nature of the jihadist threat was demonstrated in all of its politically correct glory this week with President Barack Obama's address to Indian students at St. Xavier University in Mumbai. In response to a student's query about his view of jihad and jihadists, Obama praised Islam as ‘one of the world's great religions.’ He went on to claim that the overwhelming majority of Muslims view Islam as a religion of ‘peace, justice, fairness and tolerance.’ Obama's message was not only deceptive and off point, it was deeply insensitive to his audience. Two years ago this month, Mumbai was the site of a massive jihadist commando attack against targets throughout the city, and Mumbai's residents are still grappling with the wounds of that attack. Obama's statement also ignored the US's contribution to that attack … Nearly a decade after the September 11 attacks, global jihad remains ... the central threat to the free world because of its popularity among the Muslims in the free world. To remain free, free societies must shed our politically correct shackles and address this growing menace to everything we hold dear.” (11/13/10)

“Every American with a morsel of common sense has figured out that al-Qaeda and its global franchise of like-minded terrorists have been inspired by an Islam-based ideology that seeks -- in the name of a global Islamic caliphate -- to overthrow the U.S. and the West, democracy, and all the individual rights upon which America was founded … There seem to be only about three Americans who doubt this: President Obama, White House aide for counter-terrorism John Brennan, and Attorney General Eric Holder … To be unwilling to name the terrorist acolytes of such thinkers as ‘Islamic terrorists’ or ‘radical Muslims’ is akin to refusing to describe Hitler’s thugs during World War II as Nazis. If they weren’t Nazis, what were they—misunderstood Berlin suburbanites who had been rejected by Harvard? The frightening thing about Brennan’s approach is that either he is lying about Islam, or he is classically ignorant of Islam and the history of its thought … But to move from that position to one requiring American officials to avoid mentioning the very ideology that seeks to destroy American freedom is dangerously reckless. If you don’t recognize your enemy and refuse to name him, whom on earth are you pretending to fight?” (8/25/10)

“Illegal immigration is not just about poor workers seeking a better life. It's now also about Iran-backed Hezbollah and Hamas terrorists organizing in Latin America to penetrate the U.S.-Mexico border and generate drug profits to finance and carry out terrorist attacks against the U.S.” (7/9/10)

“There's a reason President Obama is uninterested in the Choudhury case: Choudhury represents the true face of moderate Islam. He doesn't shilly-shally on terrorism -- he condemns it. He doesn't waver on Sharia law -- he opposes it. He doesn't support the jihad against Israel -- he stands with Israel. That isn't the kind of Muslim Barack Obama likes. He's more fond of the two-faced Muslims who pretend to oppose terror while secretly aiding and abetting it. He likes Muslims who seek Israel's destruction while babbling about apartheid. Choudhury is an unpleasant inconvenience for Obama: He tells the truth about the nature of political Islam and offers a realistic way forward. Obama prefers to live in Cloud Cuckoo Land where radicals are moderates and moderates are outcasts … We must identify and support the true moderate Muslims like Choudhury -- and that entails rejecting false suggestions that anti-Israel, pro-Sharia Muslims are moderate. They are not. We can never make peace with them. Only if Islam embraces the ideas and ideology and religious philosophy of Choudhury will the West ever be able to live in peace.” (7/7/10)

“That’s the crux of their willful ignorance right there; sometimes, being an Islamic terrorist IS the motive itself. As Leon de Winter wrote at Pajamas Media, ‘Faisal Shahzad is a Muslim terrorist motivated to kill by his religion, not by the loss of his house to the bank.’ Instead of busily demonizing American citizens, apologizing to those who wish to kill us, and frantically avoiding perceived ‘profiling’ out of the insane fear of looking non-politically correct, they should learn that lesson. I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again: Political correctness is no longer just annoying. It’s deadly. It’s because they want to kill us, stupid.” (5/6/10)

“That's right, if we want a world free of Islamic terror, we will have to go into Yemen, Somalia, Syria, Sudan and Iran, and maybe even Algeria and Western Sahara, to fight terrorism on the ground, and not at airport security. Until we cut them off at the source, we are simply delaying the inevitable … During the Barbary Coast Wars, weakened by the American Revolution, we simply paid Islamic terrorists off. Then, when they started killing our Christians anyway, we politely tried to negotiate a treaty. It wasn't until we built a navy and went to war that their reign of terror ended. We can't keep waiting for a last-minute chance to choose reconciliation over death — it isn't coming.” (1/5/10)

“Without his teleprompter, he is nothing. The CIA agents who work in the shadows and the troops in the field talk about Barack Obama in private moments with derision and ridicule. He is a joke to them. Al Qaeda isn’t dumb. The network of terrorists can perceive this and hear the limp wristed responses … Coupled with the arrogance … the fence probing from Al Qaeda’s raptors will continue. As I have asked before and then again, let me ask another time: how many Americans will die because of Barack Obama’s weak leadership? Something wicked this way comes ...” (1/4/10)

“At the end of the first year of Barack Obama’s administration, there’s something moving in the shadows of Mount Doom. It wasn’t there while George Bush was in charge. But Barack Obama is no George Bush. And the strategy of blaming Bush for being weak on terror will not work after eight years of blaming Bush for being too bloodthirsty.” (1/4/10)
