Well, I guess a better term would be “encouraged” to join along with so many billions of others on this planet in their adherence to their religion of peace. Which religion is that, you might ask? Why, none other than Islam! It seems that according to Al Qaeda’s number two man, Ayman al-Zawahri, that Islam is the answer to all of life’s problems! From the AP story:
Appearing in a white turban and robe, Zawahri discussed the roots of the U.S. economic crisis. He said it was a repercussion of the Sept. 11 attacks in the United States, and that the crisis would continue “as long as the foolish American policy of wading in Muslim blood continues.”
“The American economy was afflicted by a downturn and loss of investor confidence in the market following the events of Sept. 11,” he said.
“The modern economy has been destroyed by the strikes of the mujahedeen (in Iraq and Afghanistan) and usury,” he said, using the Arabic term for holy warriors.
Under Islamic Sharia law, usury, like drinking alcohol, is among the grand sins.
Zawahri then called on the American people to “embrace Islam to live a life free of greed, exploitation and forbidden wealth.”
HURRAY! We finally have the answer to all of our worries. Now just come on along, folks, and get on the Islamofascism train - or else.
Gerry Rivers is on his “America is racist” tirade again, only this time it’s the evil military who are holding the Arab “Boy Scouts” at Club Gitmo and torturing them unmercifully. He goes up against John Yoo, Law Professor, about the existence of Gitmo, and Geraldo accuses Yoo of creating Gitmo on purpose because it’s close, but it’s not U.S. soil. Oh, the repeated rantings of a lunatic about Gitmo and how these detainees should have been brought to Leavenworth instead. Yeah, like that would have worked.
I wish Geraldo would save some of his outrage for TRUE victims of these thugs, as well as the victims of his precious criminal illegal Mexicans. Now that would be some righteous indignation, indeed.
Yesterday on the Beltway Boys, Fred Barnes called Mort on the carpet for a piece he wrote about Rush, Hannity and Laura Ingraham, saying the Republican party needs to dump them and stay away from their ideas. Mort tries to make his case, but as Fred’s face tells the story, I ain’t buyin’ it either.
Keith Olbermann was on The View today, and he talked about the Worst Person segment, Bill O’Reilly, Republican-bashing, and everything else you can imagine. Elisabeth gets in a good dig about ruining a football telecast with his opinions on Sarah Palin.
Olberdouche thinks Sarah Palin should stick around because she’s good fodder for comedy gold. What a loser. The View has more viewers than Countdown.
