During the Cold war, when so many people were all agog about the threat of International Communism, a large part of the Right spent most of their energies fighting Liberals at home, rather than Communists abroad. The hysteria got so bad that people were falsely accused of being pro-Communist.
Today, with the Cold war well in the past, Rightists are perversely delighted to have another threat to be in a dither about: International Jihadism. And once again, they spend most of their time sniping at Liberals here and doing nothing about terrorists there. Once again, Liberals are being accused of being pro-Islamic radicalism and of being Un-American.
Nothing ever changes. The fetid swamp of the Right keeps producing the same aberrant characters.
If you on the Right really want to combat terrorism, first stop dividing America. Stop making false equations between Liberalism and Islamic Radicalism. Fact is, YOU are more like them! Liberalism is the alternative to Islamism.
