Paris Proves PC on Islam A Real Danger

% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.

If America can learn one thing from Wednesday’s terror attack on the Charlie Hebdo satirical newspaper offices in Paris, it should be this: Islam is not a religion of peace.

Maybe it is for some. But our politicians should stop treating it as if that viewpoint is the guiding principle. At the very least, this is what America’s view of Islam should be: It sure is an easy religion to skew to justify terror.

And in that, Islam’s very, very different from other religions.

Council on American-Islamic Relations spokesman Ibrahim Hooper would disagree. In a phone interview with The Washington Times, Hooper said that while the Paris attacks were to be “condemned in the strongest possible terms … [as] brutal and cowardly,” they were not to be confused with the ideology of Islam as a whole – and that in fact, many religions, including Christianity, are guilty of committing like atrocities.

Just to be clear: He was discussing the Paris terrorist attack on Charlie Hebdo – the same newspaper that was firebombed by purported Muslim extremists in 2011 after it printed a cartoon of the prophet Mohammed. Hooper acknowledged that the most recent attacks were done by radicals who likely shouted “Allahu Akbar.” But he also said the Paris attacks were not representative of what Islam is about – and that even Christianity has its percentage of bad seeds.

“What is your alternative? To say the faith of a quarter of the world’s population is evil and should somehow be destroyed? Any faith of more than 1.6 billion people is going to have some of them who falsely justify actions on that faith,” Mr. Hooper said. “There are all kinds of faiths [that] carry out terrorist attacks. We shouldn’t generalize.”

Okay – so name some examples of Christians carrying out attacks to that in Paris.

“You have the Westboro Baptist Church,” he said, “the killings of abortion doctors based on religious justification, and the racist attacks by white supremacists … Was Christianity [as a whole] blamed for that?”

Well, no – but that’s because that would be insane.
