How do leftwingers rationalize their support for radical Islamic terrorists?

Question

I'd really like to hear their justification on this one

By Dale Hurd

CBN News witnessed this strange coalition in London in 2003: a massive anti-American, anti-war demonstration by radical leftists and radical Muslims. They are two groups with seemingly nothing in common except hatred of America, capitalism, and Israel.

DNC Chair Howard Dean condemned the anti-Semitism inside his party

Answer 1

They don’t rationalize they just close their eyes, cover their ears and babble.


What makes The Project so different from the standard “Death of America! Death to Israel!” and “Establish the global caliphate!” Islamist rhetoric is that it represents a flexible, multi-phased, long-term approach to the “cultural invasion” of the West. Calling for the utilization of various tactics, ranging from immigration, infiltration, surveillance, propaganda, protest, deception, political legitimacy and terrorism, The Project has served for more than two decades as the Muslim Brotherhood “master plan”. As can be seen in a number of examples throughout Europe – including the political recognition of parallel Islamist government organizations in Sweden, the recent “cartoon” jihad in Denmark, the Parisian car-burning intifada last November, and the 7/7 terrorist attacks in London – the plan outlined in The Project has been overwhelmingly successful.


The following tactics and techniques are among the many recommendations made in The Project:

-Instituting alliances with Western “progressive” organizations that share similar goals;

Answer 2

Yes, it is real. It isn't just 9/11. People remember that because of the magnitude of the devastation. We should not forget the other incidents that have occurred such as this one: "A car bomb exploded underneath the World Trade Center in New York on Friday, February 26, 1993 killing at least five people and injuring scores more. About 100,000 people work in and visit the 1,700ft towers every day - the blast happened at their busiest time. The bombing has shocked America which had seemed immune from acts of terrorism that have plagued other parts of the world. ...... In May 1994, four men - Mohammed Salameh, Nidal Ayyad, Mahmud Abouhalima and Ahmad Ajaj - were sentenced to life for bombing the World Trade Center. In October 1995 Sheikh Omar Abdel Rahman, a blind cleric who preached at mosques in Brooklyn and Jersey City, was sentenced to life for masterminding the bombing." I remember another one somewhere else but couldn't think of it to Google right at the moment. Smaller, yet still terrorist attacks on American soil. It is very real and a significant threat right here at home. There is always the excessive hype from the media and sources that will use something like this for their own personal gain and interests. This should not make the American people think any less of the actual threat that is out there.

Answer 3

The demonstration was in London, according to the story you posted. American "leftwingers" may share some beliefs with their counterparts in other countries, but not all. So there doesn't need to be a justification, unless you'd like all conservatives world-wide to be tarred with the same brush, in which case perhaps you'd like to offer us how you rationalize your support for the racist poster put up by a Swiss conservative political party depicting three white sheep kicking a black sheep out of their country?

Also, the article doesn't identify the radical Muslims as terrorists - you drew that conclusion yourself. A person can be an Islamist, or a radical Muslim, and believe that Islam requires him or her to put religious ideas into political practice, without crossing the line into militancy or violence. Should I refer to all Christians who hold outside-of-the-mainstream political ideas as "radical Christian terrorists" whether or not they've ever fired a shot in anger or bombed an abortion clinic?

Answer 4

Well lets see I am a "leftwinger" and I do not support terrorists. however,I am smart enough to know the difference between Islamic terrorists and Islamic people. Your question makes me wonder if your one of those Rightwingers who think that Muslim and terrorist are the same word. But that can't be true because that would make you an idiot. Your not an idiot are you Dale? Do you have a mullet Dale? Look around you, are you sitting in a double wide surrounded by old Mountain Dew bottles? Or are you one of those rich ones with better hair care and inheritance money?

Answer 5

Go back to the Vietnam war and see the links to the communists the left wing had (we were fighting the communists in the Far East). Its just another example of the hate America first crowd the left loves.

Answer 6

They don't feel they support the radical Islamic Terrorists, so they have nothing to rationalize. Pretty scary, if you ask me!

Answer 7

Those leftwingers hate their own country because, fundamentally, they resent the fact that they do not rule it, for they feel that they deserve to. They hate a more powerful nation (USA) even more proportionately because they would rule the world if they were king of USA.
They ally with any odd group that attacks 'decadent capitalism' because they dream of a pure nation under their own command.
They are stuck as emotional and intellectual teenagers. So why should they listen to us medium blokes?

Answer 8

Why does radical Evangelical Christianity support Zionism?

Christian Zionism is a theology that supports a political regime based on apartheid and discrimination - yet millions of people in the US express their support for it. How dangerous is it given the US role in the Middle East?
Christian Zionism is essentially Christian support for Zionism. Zionism is a political system based on ethnic exclusivity giving Jews preferential political rights which are denied to Palestinians. The United Nations has defined Zionism as a form of racism and apartheid. Nevertheless, in the words of Grace Halsell the essential message of the Christian Zionist is this: “every act taken by Israel is orchestrated by God, and should be condoned, supported, and even praised by the rest of us.”

Answer 9

You just do not understand.

The terrorists are misunderstood they need love and caring.

And the Democrats will hold their hands, sing Kum Ba Yah and light a few candles.

The democrats feel bad for them and they want us to be as basic as them.

Answer 10

Why should we care what people in London do? Not on my priority list. Only the paranoid would worry about it.
