The right wing fanatic at Renew America responds to the Fort Hood shooting and to the trend of political correctness in general, and boy is he ticked,
Even beyond these examples, however, we see that political correctness has emerged, especially in the years following 9-11, as a deadly threat to Americans. How? By the fact that it hampers us from being able to defend ourselves against the existential threat to America posed by radical Muslim terrorists. Far from waking up and getting serious about dealing with the threat of Islamofascist terrorists, America has largely followed a course of politically correct head-in-the-sand relativism towards the people who would like nothing more than to destroy America and behead any who don’t convert to their particular version of lunar idolatry. Even in the midst of the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan — ostensibly being fought to destroy foreign supporters of terrorism — Bush was telling us “Islam is a peaceful religion.” The FBI — the people who are supposed to be investigating and stopping acts of terrorism on American soil — have relied upon the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR), a group with high-ranking members who are known to have supported terrorist organizations, to train its field agents in “sensitivity.” The new watchword of the PC thugs is “Islamophobia,” which can be defined as “a willingness to speak the truth about the ugly aspects of Islam.”
So we see the PC infection having deadly results at Fort Hood, in Texas, where a Muslim terrorist masquerading as a U.S. Army Major ambushed and killed 12 unarmed American soldiers, and wounded 30 others. But wait — we can’t call it terrorism. Instead of calling a spade a spade, the news media concoct all kinds of stories to explain why Major Nidal Malik Hasan would have gone on his shooting rampage. Perhaps it was post-traumatic stress disorder — except that he had never been in combat. Maybe he just empathized with the soldiers with PTSD that he was counseling and broke from the stress — except that he reportedly spent many a counseling session berating them for participating in “the war against Islam” instead of trying to help them through their psychological difficulties. Perchance Maj. Hasan is really the victim here, since at one point several years ago, some guy in his apartment complex allegedly tore a pro-jihad bumper sticker off his car and keyed it? Sure, since we all know that a shooting spree is the entirely appropriate response to a stolen bumper sticker and a keyed car. One thing that the media and the commentators and apparently the President of the United States himself are all agreed on is that we can’t “jump to conclusions” that radical Islamic beliefs had anything to do with a guy shouting “Allah Akbar” while shooting unarmed people.
