Obama Equivocates: “People Have Committed Terrible Deeds In the Name Of Christ”

*It is a truth universally acknowledged, that a progressive in good standing must denounce Christianity in the wake of every terror attack – no matter how vicious.

It should surprise no one that Barack Hussein Obama – a leftist’s leftist – would engage in this repellent ritual. That he would choose the National Prayer Breakfast as the venue for this decrepit moral equivalence – is only icing on the cake.

In the same week that Islamic Jihadists burned a Jordanian pilot alive in a cage, and then broadcast the atrocity on a big screen in their stronghold in Syria, Obama felt the need to point out that such atrocities carried out in the name of faith are “not unique to one group or one religion.” He felt compelled to put Christianity, which spread through peaceful evangelization – in the same league as Islam, which has only spread through compulsion and terror from its onset.

How dare he.

This “leader” is telegraphing to the entire world that he has no intention of stopping the genocidal carnage that is being perpetrated throughout the world in the name of Islam.

Instead, Obama – the Narcissist-in-Chief – called on Americans to “start with some…humility.”

He lectured us to “not be so full of yourself and so confident that you are right” and that “somehow we alone are in possession of the truth.”

Here’s the sad truth: For the next two years, we can look forward to watching Christians, Yazidis, Kurds and other religious minorities in the Middle East and North Africa get slaughtered in unimaginably horrific ways with very little pushback from the United States Military. Our “humility” will prevent us from butting in, I suppose.

Keep this in mind the next time an atrocity happens in the name of Islam, and Obama reacts in an emotionless monotone and then trots off to the golf course. Understand that this president is only upset to the degree that he has been inconvenienced by it.

This Commander in Chief of the Armed Forces believes that we are no better than they are.

He is a disgrace to his office.

Weasel Zippers: White House Says Obama’s Upcoming Summit On “Violent Extremism” Will NOT Focus On Radical Islam…

What makes this even more mind-numbing is Earnest was asked the question in relation to today’s Islamic State execution of a Jordanian pilot.

EARNEST: Muslims are not the only ones at risk, we have talked about other violent extremists who are not Muslim who have carried out acts of violence in this country.

WHD: Obama Attacks Free Speech at Prayer Breakfast

Of course, there were other parts of his speech to despise, too.

Obama isn’t just any other citizen. He is the president of the United States, with vast law enforcement resources at his disposal, and his attacks on the speech of others, however offensive the speech is, can have a chilling effect on the right of free expression.

The remarks castigating those who attack Islam also are an indirect criticism of cartoonists at the French magazine Charlie Hebdo, who drew caricatures of Mohammed and were killed for it.

Jihad Watch: Obama: “We are summoned to push back against those who would distort our religion for their nihilistic ends”

Wait, what? He said, “our religion”? Back in 2008, when he referred to “my Muslim faith,” it was dismissed as a slip of the tongue. But now, if this AP report is accurate in quoting him, this is two “slips of the tongue” in the same direction — along with six years of foreign and domestic policies that aid and enable the advance of jihad and Islamic supremacism.

Of course, what Obama is really doing here is not saying that he is a Muslim, but making a moral equivalence claim that all religions are equally capable of inciting their adherents to violence. That is a dogma that is nearly universally held these days, and is designed to stymie resistance to jihad and Islamic supremacism.

And because Obama chose to bring up the Crusades, as an example of Christian extremist violence – here’s a Timeline of Islamic Expansion In The Dark Ages via Red State: 

…it’s worth remembering that the Crusades arose in the late Eleventh Century only after four centuries of relentless Islamic efforts to conquer Europe, and the Christians of the Crusading era cannot be evaluated without that crucial context.
