Dear CONSERVATIVES,
In the wake of the murder of U.S. Ambassador Christopher Stevens and the Benghazi attacks against American citizens, Barack Obama stood in front of the U.N. and representatives of Iran and other despotisms yesterday and said:
"The Future Must Not Belong To Those Who Slander the Prophet of Islam."
This was a coded apology for the cartoonish video that this administration continues to believe, in the face of all evidence to the contrary, was the cause of attacks against U.S. diplomatic facilities in Libya and Egypt. The administration's delusion that impoliteness about the Prophet, and not planned Islamic terrorism, is the actual cause of the jihad against us.
This abject appearance by the President before the U.N. was part of a move inside this administration to appease Muslim nations who have begun an offensive to suffocate free speech about the violence and genocide committed in the name of Islam. The U.S. is slowly but certainly accommodating the view that free speech, when it comes to religious (i.e. Muslim) matters, is suspect. We have reached this point, in large part, because of the growing success of the idea that any criticism of Islam is actually pathology, rather than a legitimate exercise of free speech. It is, in other words, "Islamophobia."
