Jerome Kaufman writes to him.
Mr. O’Reilly,
Last night you made the statement that we have no hard evidence that there is such a thing as “Stealth Jihad” in the United States, wherein Islam is trying to indoctrinate us all to believe their culture is morally equivalent to our own in its treatment of men, women. minorities, other religions, etc.
That statement is absolutely false. You are dangerously misinforming your audience and the attractive blond lady on the program vs. Alan Colmes was right. You evidently are not aware of terrorist investigator Steve Emerson’s work and his video, “Jihad in America” from 1994, wherein he presents mountains of “hard evidence” that “Stealth Jihad” has been going on for years in this country. since at least 1971. The FBI and CIA are finally finding active islamic chapters promoting these ideas all over the US. Mr. Emerson has a second video coming out in a couple of months called, “The Grand Deception – Jihad II”, which addresses Stealth Jihad in great depth citing thousands of “hard facts.” Please watch it and continue to wake up America and refute completely the misinformation of that awful guy, Colmes who is either stupid, a dedicated liar, a paid propagandist or all three. He is certainly one of your “pinheads.”
Of course all Muslims hate Western society. Proof: This is what all Muslim children learn in schools in every Muslim country. America is doomed until we wake up to the educational material in Muslim schools. The studies are based upon rote learning, i.e., irrational thought. See the new book, “Rational Thinking, Government Policies, Science, and Living”. America is irrational for ignoring educational doctrines.
Hi, Bill
It tells me, Bill, that while most Westerners do not like Moslems, neither do they like Jews. If you polled Religious Jews about their opinions of Moslems and Christians, I think you would get similar results. What does this mean? The Kinston Trio expresses the sentiments of Westerners, Easterners, Southerners and Northerners:
“And I don’t like anybody very much”, by the way, applies especially to the Turks, 80% of whom have been shown in polls to have a negative opinion of EVERYONE except Turks.
We all have our prejudices to be sure, but facts are facts. And the fact is that polls are telling us what muslims around the world believe.
Don’t know about Walters, but Goldberg and Behar would ignore such poll results and just stick with what they want to believe.
These people should be confronted on what evidence they have to proclaim that the vast majority of muslims are peaceful. People tend to think that those muslims who aren’t actively engaged in violence are therefore “peaceful” and “moderate”. In fact polls have revealed that muslims in muslim countries and in the west are supportive of the aims and tactics of the jihadists. I wonder how Whoopie Goldberg, Barbara Walters or Joy Behar would spin those poll results.
Narvey: The Soviet communist regime was responsible for about 60 million deaths. The majority of of Soviet citizens were not only not responsible for that atrocity, very few were aware that it had occured. The average person in most societies really is not interested in what is happening around him or her. only if directly impacts on the individual that interest is elicited. That is the sad fact of life.
Muslim societies are no different in that regard. Public opinion is not all that important in foreign affairs, since not too maany care.
O’Reilly, though clearly is against radical Islam, has I noted a number of times, made efforts to distance himself from the right wing, especially regarding problems with Muslims.
You will recall the much publicized incident with his appearance on I think it is called The View, where O’Reilly stated that Muslims were responsible for 9/11 and Whoopi Goldberg and Joy Behar walked off the set in disgust. They claimed that O’Reilly had maligned all Muslims by that statement.
O’Reilly made a point on his O’Reilly Factor program the next day that Americans knew he was only referring to the radical Muslims and that he should not have to point out the obvious. O’Reilly then fell back further into politically correct speak when, echoing the mantra of Western leaders, he said, everyone knows that ‘the vast majority of Muslims are peaceful, law abiding, good and decent people’. He has now said that a few times.
What is worth noting regarding that mantra is that:
1. There is no reliable study done of the Muslim world that deals with trying to assess how many in the Muslim world actually are Jihadists, be they terrorists, material supporters of terrorism or be they believers in the same Islamic belief and practice as the Jihadists and whether these so called peaceful, law abiding good and decent Muslims, actually reject Jihadists and their Islamic beliefs;
2. There is no attention paid by the O’Reillys, Western leaders, the Goldbergs or the Behars as to what criteria they use to say that the ‘vast majority of Muslims are peaceful, lawabiding, good and decent’- ie. the good Muslims and to distinguish them from the bad – ie. The Jihadist variety of Muslims responsible for 9/11;
3. The anecdotal evidence taken from news reports of terrorist attacks and attempted attacks, the numbers of Muslim imams of a great many mosques in both the Muslim world and the West that rage to their congregants against the West and Jews, the numbers of Muslims who take to the streets to scream death to the West at the least provocation, real or imagined, the number of Muslim organizations involved in supporting Jihad being monitored or which have been charged and already convicted and the countless internet sites spewing anti-Western/Jewish/Israel hate filled vitriol, is compelling evidence that if the majority of the Muslim world is peaceful, law abiding, good and decent it is far from a vast majority;
4. It is undisputed that the majority of the Muslim world is antisemitic.
One can only conclude from the foregoing that to even say that the majority of the Muslim world is peaceful, law abiding, good and decent that one must not factor into their thinking, that the majority of the Muslim world is antisemitic.
What does that tell you about what the West thinks of Jews and the hatred that the majority of the Muslim world has for Jews?
