Islamists On The March? Move Along; Nothing to See Here… America’s Resolve in Fighting Islamists
Erik Rush * Canada Free Press
The gruesome killing of a British soldier in London this week by Islamists and the attendant reactions by the press and politicians make clear two things: One, that Islam cannot be treated as a legitimate faith in the American tradition and in the context of the First Amendment, and two, Americans must wrest control of our country from liberal-progressives with all due speed, and by any means necessary.
It has also been pointed out that those who initiated the American Revolution did so over far less than that which the Federal government currently practices across many fronts – but I digress… I borrow the phrase “by any means necessary” from 1960s civil rights leader Malcolm X (who ironically, was a Muslim) for the same reason he did. While he knew a call for armed insurgence by blacks would have brought down the wrath of the entire law enforcement machine upon him and his colleagues, he also knew it was important to impart a sense of relational gravity to the struggle. Hadn’t those who initiated the American Revolution done so over less injustice than blacks had suffered under segregation and Jim Crow laws?
Days after the machete and meat cleaver killing of the British soldier, it still took some effort to find any information on the soldier, even his name. He was consistently referred to in the press as “an active duty British soldier,” or simply “a British soldier.” In any case, the young man who was hacked to death in broad daylight on a Londonstreet this week was 25-year-old Drummer Lee Rigby, of the 2nd Battalion Royal Regiment of Fusiliers.It is apparent that the lack of references to his identity was an avoidance to humanizing Rigby on the part of the press, risking the ire of his fellow human beings, who disdain such barbarity. Thus, Rigby remained an obscure living piece of meat to which some angry men put an end because they were angry.
On May 22, British Prime Minister David Cameron called the killing “a betrayal of Islam,” and said that “there is nothing in Islam that justifies this truly dreadful act.” We know this to be false, however, relegating Cameron’s words to abject propaganda. Despite the admonitions in Islamic scripture encouraging all manner of violence and the rhetoric of Islamists, politicians in Europe and America continue to apologize for this perverse cult, and savvy Muslims capitalize on this, claiming in the face of atrocity after atrocity committed by Muslims that Islam is a “religion of peace,” and that we simply do not understand it.
