Thanks to
Stop the ACLU, I read
Islamo-Nazi propaganda
today. It was truly amazing. Not unbelievable at all, but amazing. The
aforelinked piece about Senator Santorum's "repugnant remarks on Islam,
Iran, and Syria" reminds me so much of Joseph Goebbels it is
ridiculous.
The funny thing about stuff like this is it points
you directly to your enemy. If al-Jazeera publishes an editorial
defending Iran and Syria, that is exactly who you need to fight. Since
it also criticizes Senator Santorum, that tells you that Senator
Santorum is doing something right - if by "doing something right" you
mean "doing something to defeat terrorism."
It's Isaiah 5:20 again.
The
guy actually said at the end of the article, "Vote Democratic." That is
just amazing. I think it was actually stupid on the propagandist's
part, because some people will probably (and should) exploit the crap
out of that. So the guy is actually probably doing something to hurt
his cause, which of course is getting weak Democrats into office so
terrorists can get into the country, break things, and kill people.
They
might be idiots, but we have some idiots, too. Part of our strategy
must be to be collectively smarter than them. Americans have to learn
to read between the lines and not believe everything they see or hear,
and more importantly, ask "Why would ____ do/say that?" We're so
skeptical of the Bush Administration, but we (some of us) believe
everything that newspapers and television sets tell us. Some of us
believe that human rights organizations fight only for human rights.
Some of us believe the ACLU only wants to protect civil liberties as
defined in the Constitution. We think news shows are right. We think
journalists are smart. We think newspapers present historically
documented eye-witness account no other side of the story facts. We
think the United Nations is a world governing body.
I don't
want to sound too cynical, because I actually believe that there is a
tremendous amount of good in the world. It is a great place that we
have been given. However, wake up!!!! There are some honest people and
organizations out there. Look for them.
