The lovely countermoonbat Holly Fisher (a.k.a. Holly Hobby Lobby) has been making the rounds on lefty social media:
I can’t explain the difference. It would be like explaining to a yappy dog why there is no point barking at every car that drives by — or more like explaining to a schizophrenic why up is not the same thing as down.
Maybe Charles C.W. Cooke has the patience:
The woman on the left is a peaceful American citizen with a husband in the military. She has never killed anybody, and nor does she have any desire to. The reason that you know her name is that she has become a minor political celebrity for her outspoken support of a Supreme Court decision that upheld the rule of law against the intrusion of the executive branch. In her photograph, she is mocking the president for his intolerant and ignorant “cling to guns or religion” comments.
The terrorist Devil-worshiper on the right is believed by moonbats to be Sherafiyah Lewthwaite, although she is probably actually Reem Saleh Al-Riyashi. If she is Lewthwaite:
The woman on the right, by contrast, is Sherafiyah Lewthwaite*, also known as “The White Widow.” The reason that we know her name? Her husband blew himself up on a train in London on July 7, 2005, killing 26 people, and, after his death, Lewthwaite picked up where he left off, becoming in the process one of the world’s most wanted terrorists. Lewthwaite is a former British citizen who gave up her life in England to become a member of the radical Al-Qaeda-linked militant group, Al-Shabaab. She is suspected of being behind a number of deadly attacks on civilians around the world, among them a grenade attack in Mombasa. In her photograph, she is reaffirming her commitment to jihad.
If she is Reem Saleh Al-Riyashi:
The woman on the right, by contrast is Reem Saleh Al-Riyasha. The reason that we know her name? She’s a wealthy Palestinian who blew up herself and four Israelis at the Erez crossing in 2004, thereby fulfilling her lifelong dream of turning her “body into deadly shrapnel against the Zionists.” Al-Riyashi left behind two children, observing before her death, “I always wanted to be the first woman to carry out a martyrdom operation, where parts of my body can fly all over . . . God has given me two children. I love them [with] a kind of love that only God knows, but my love to meet God is stronger still.” In her photograph, she is reaffirming her commitment to jihad.
Nice try, but I doubt any moonbats will grasp the distinction. Both women have icky guns, and they both believe in higher authorities than the New York Times editorial page, so they are the same.
