pretty much stopped right there but appreciate the effort
those are blogeriffic interpretations on what he said but where did he say that "have the right to practice jihad"?
Actually I believe it was an Obama appointee who made that statement, my bad.
The president's top counterterrorism adviser on Wednesday called jihad a "legitimate tenet of Islam," arguing that the term "jihadists" should not be used to describe America's enemies.
During a speech at the Center for Strategic and International Studies, John Brennan described violent extremists as victims of "political, economic and social forces," but said that those plotting attacks on the United States should not be described in "religious terms."
He repeated the administration argument that the enemy is not "terrorism," because terrorism is a "tactic," and not terror, because terror is a "state of mind" -- though Brennan's title, deputy national security adviser for counterterrorism and homeland security, includes the word "terrorism" in it. But then Brennan said that the word "jihad" should not be applied either.
-------------------------------
The comment comes after Brennan, in a February speech in which he described his respect for the tolerance and devotion of Middle Eastern nations, referred to Jerusalem on first reference by its Arabic name, Al-Quds.
I think we all know though that the leaders of only one religion on Earth, islam, has promised to destroy America.
Likewise Obambi defends islam at every turn, when asked about jihad in India he instead praised islam as being a great religion.
Obama Praises Islam During Trip to India
Pardon me if I don't see anything so great about a religion that has been responsible for the slaughter of millions upon untold millions to advance it's dominance throught it's bloody history from the mid seventh century until this very day.
and there are lots of Muslims who feel the same way yet many want to lump them into the group with bombs strapped to their bodies blowing up schools.
Yes but that has nothing to do with islam trying to squelch free speech in secular countries.
The point is that islamists push laws in nonislamic states that restrict comments they consider 'islamophobic', leading those nations to pass 'hate crimes' laws that restrict the rights of non moslems or even moslems from making public statements that do not support islam and it's agenda.
It is a tactic that in a round-a-bout way restricts free speech and that is the purpose of that tactic.
Oklahoma Judge: Sharia Law is not Actually a set of Laws | Logan's Warning
I challenge anyone to show me a version of Sharia Law, that does not discriminate against non-Muslims and women. No one can, because the Koran discriminates against both groups of people. If Muslim men are not marrying more than one wife here, it is only because they do not want to go to jail for bigamy. Are they supposed to be applauded for that? Once again CAIR has used the law of the land, against the land.
Actually many moslem men do marry here who already have one or more wives in their native country.
