Most Muslims in Western countries are not promoting or calling for local or global violence. (Acknowledged. But see endnote.*)

That said, the Quran and Islam—the so-called “religion of peace” according to Western progressives—permit and even praise the killing of kafirun (disbelievers), , and People of the Book (Jews and Christians) should a Muslim so choose.

Since 9/11, there have been over 50,000 Islamic terror attacks in nearly 70 countries. On average, some 25–35 men, women, and children are slaughtered daily.

For some unfathomable reason, progressives, Western politicians, and much of the mainstream media continue to yawn and look away.

*In contrast, surveys in many Muslim-majority countries show substantial support for Sharia law, including severe punishments or death for apostasy and blasphemy (see Pew’s 2013 global survey of 38,000 face-to-face interviews with Muslims in 39 countries). For numerical terror-attack sources, see Fondapol (April 2024), the Global Terrorism Database, and ACLED.

Yep. Even on election night. 😬

Ideological capture—whether on the left or on the right—can eclipse one’s benevolence and even humanity.

BC Greens leader Emily Lowan’s prepared speech—and her Freudian slip (parapraxis) regarding opposing the “existence” of Conservatives—are revealing and df the various adages which suggest that conservatives tend to oppose progressive ideas as wrong or misguided, while progressives tend to oppose conservatives themselves as bad or evil people.

@CANADIANGEM17 True.

A publicly-funded national news organization must be balanced, objective, ideologically neutral, and politically non-partisan. The CBC is none of these.

This doesn’t help…

“fueled by racism” 🙄

There are racists in all races. Grievously, it's part of the human condition.

That said, I believe Thomas Sowell frames the reality of racism very well: “Racism is not dead, but it is on life support—kept alive by politicians, race hustlers, and people who get a sensouncing others as racists.”

Another massacre today.

Why? The Quran and Islam—the “religion of peace” according to Western progressives—permit and even praise the killing of kafirun (disbelievers), mushrikūn (polytheists), and People of the Book (Jews and Christians) if Muslims so choose.

Since 9/11, r 48,000 Islamic terror attacks in nearly 70 countries. For some unfathomable reason, progressives continue to yawn.
