Islamophobia? Yeah right!
Hat tip: John Lott's website
All of us, every single man, woman, and child on the face of the Earth were born with the same unalienable rights; to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. And, if the governments of the world can't get that through their thick skulls, then, regime change will be necessary.
I happen to be an Islamophobe. I hope you're not talking bad about us.
ReplyDeleteIt's obvious to me that this was done on purpose. They were asking for all of this to happen. Bravo to the pilots for pulling them off the plane.
ReplyDeleteActually I would have preferred that they were removed from the plane in flight.
ReplyDeletePsychologists consider a Phobia an irrational fear of something. For example, a claustrophobe is not simply someone who prefers not to be in very small places. A claustrophobe is one who becomes paralyzed and unable to behave like a normal person, when in a closed space.
ReplyDeleteThus, once one understands Islam, it is impossible to be an Islamphobe, because the fear of people willing to kill themselves and hundreds of innocent civilians with bombs, is very rational for me.
I agree with Titan: this was obviously done on purpose, probably to polemize and appear as victims (Muslims are extremely well-versed in victimhood).
Jaime,
ReplyDeleteYOu are, of course, logically correct. However, many of us here in America have decided to just adopt the term Islamophobe as a badge of honor, just as we have done with the term Infidel.
Honestly, pretty soon I am also going to adopt the terms Nazi and Fascist for myself, because I sure do get called those things alot too.
According to the WT story the imams are trying to get legislation passed to prohibit "ethnic and religious profiling". Coupled with the eyewitness testimony to their provocative and disruptive behavior, I'd say there's little question but that the incident was staged for the express purpose of making it more difficult to prevent future 9/11 style attacks using commercial aircraft. Who says they need to change tactics? All they need to get the Leftards to force us to ignore the old ones again.
ReplyDeleteMy question is, will they try in next while in mid-flight? I notice our poor put-upon little clutch of imams confined their PC-testing exercise to the boarding area and seating procedure. After all, no point in waiting until after take-off and risking a black eye or two at the hands of a planeful of terrified passengers. When the Shoe Bomber tried it in flight several years ago the passengers who stopped him from blowing them out of the sky were hailed as heroes. Now another group of passengers and crew who reacted properly in not dissimilar circumstances is being smeared as bigots. Enough to make a wary passenger think twice while still on the ground, perhaps, but would PC prove stronger than self-preservation in the air?
ReplyDeleteJamie: You are quite wise.
