Unbelievable as it is, the President wants to equate Terrorist Islamic ISIS with the Crusades of 700+ years ago!
Jonah Goldberg writes: "On Tuesday, the so-called Islamic State released a slickly produced
video showing a Jordanian pilot being burned alive in a steel cage. On
Wednesday, the United Nations issued a report detailing various “mass
executions of boys, as well as reports of beheadings, crucifixions of
children, and burying children alive” at the hands of the Islamic State.
And on Thursday, President Obama seized the opportunity of the
National Prayer Breakfast to forthrightly criticize the “terrible deeds”
. . . committed “in the name of Christ.”
The President's exact words were: "And lest we get on our high horse and think this is unique to some
other place, remember that during the Crusades and the Inquisition,
people committed terrible deeds in the name of Christ. In our home
country, slavery and Jim Crow all too often was justified in the name of
Christ."
Goldberg knocks it out of the park with this: "It is perverse that Obama feels compelled to lecture the West about
not getting too judgmental on our “high horse” over radical Islam’s
medieval barbarism in 2015 because of Christianity’s medieval barbarism
in 1215.
It’s also insipidly hypocritical. President Obama can’t bring himself
to call the Islamic State “Islamic,” but he’s happy to offer a sermon
about Christianity’s alleged crimes at the beginning of the last
millennium.
We are all descended from cavemen who broke the skulls of their
enemies with rocks for fun or profit. But that hardly mitigates the
crimes of a man who does the same thing today. I see no problem judging
the behavior of the Islamic State and its apologists from the vantage
point of the West’s high horse, because we’ve earned the right to sit in
that saddle."
This President is the most Un-American thinker to ever sit in the White House! He manages to find a way to equate anything done by Islamic Terrorists acting under the guise of their religion to events and people in our past 1,000 years ago and try to make them equal. Ridiculous!
