		<description><![CDATA[Of course, we can always blame these evil acts of individuals as being consequences of a monolithic &quot;Left,&quot; and I actually do agree with that assessment. But the acts are still those of individual, diseased personalities who think themselves more important than they really are, give themselves the &quot;right&quot; to try to prove it in whatever way they deem necessary, and carry out acts of violence toward that end.


Not excusing the influences that lead them to act out their evilness, it is still a fact that certain individuals, no matter whether raised a Preacher&#039;s Kid or a Satanist&#039;s, will do these things. We can&#039;t identify them by sight, and most of them are not known for such violence beforehand. Regardless of their motives or what has led them in those directions, they will always be with us -- thankfully a tiny minority. It makes one wish Philip K. Dick&#039;s imagination could lead to a real solution.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[&lt;i&gt;You haven&#039;t read Osama bin Laden&#039;s 9/11 manifesto. He had every specific points in that manifesto, the main one being the creation of a Palestinian state. A secondary point was that the U.S. should get out of Muslim lands and stop the degradation of their society w/our free-for-all lifestyle. That manifesto certainly wasn&#039;t all about making Islam supreme throughout the world.&lt;/i&gt;

Who hasn’t read OBL’s 9/11 manifesto? Did your mother drop you on your head when you were just a baby? I’m wondering since you are as gullible and as dumb as John Kerry. 

OBL was using the tactic of saying one thing in English and another thing in Arabic. It’s the same exact tactic Arafat employed to perfection to convince that idiot Bill Clinton that he was really serious about making peace with Israel. 

Have you ever heard of the book The Al Qaeda Reader by Raymond Ibrahim, who happens to be one of the regular writers here at FPM? Let me suggest you read it to find out what OBL was saying in Arabic behind the scenes before you continue to make a bigger fool out of yourself with every posts.

By the way, the so-called Palestinians are the proxies of the Islamic totalitarian world, which is waging a perpetual jihad in Israel against the Jewish infidels to ultimately make Islam supreme in Israel and to subjugate the Jewish infidels into Islamic totalitarianism via the eventual imposition of Sharia (Islamic totalitarian law), i.e., to render the Jewish infidels into harsh and degrading dhimmitude. 

Moreover, the perpetual jihad waged by the Islamic totalitarian world against the Jewish infidels in Israel is not significantly different in any way from the jihads the Islamic totalitarian world is also waging against the Hindu infidels in India, the Buddhist infidels in Thailand, the Orthodox Christian infidels in Chechnya, the Atheist infidels in China, the Christian and animist infidels in Sudan, and indeed in too many other places around the world to mention. As the sole fundamental purpose of mainstream orthodox Islam (the only kind) is the subjugation of all infidels and all religions into Islamic totalitarianism through both violent and non-violent stealth and deceptive jihad and the eventual imposition of Sharia (Islamic totalitarian law) to ultimately make Islam supreme throughout the world, and please don’t say again: what about the other sects? Because there is no freedom of religion in Islamic totalitarian society. Unbelievers, if they are former Muslims, are executed and infidels are rendered into harsh and degrading dhimmitude if they are lucky. In any event, since the subjugation of the world into Islamic totalitarianism in order to make Islam supreme is the sole fundamental purpose of Islam, it is impossible for Israel or any of the other victims of jihad to make peace alone with the Islamic totalitarian world. 

Indeed, the only way for there to ever to be peace between the Islamic totalitarian world and the infidel world is for the infidel world to act collectively together to either destroy Islam utterly by killing every Muslim or to otherwise render the Islamic totalitarian world into total abject poverty and then isolate it until such time as Islam becomes discredited as a false ideology within that world.]]></description>

Look at the post you chose to reply to. It&#039;s hidden deep in the thread, it&#039;s critical of my thinking, it&#039;s also critical of my writing while lauding Greenfield&#039;s writing, so wow, it&#039;s got the TRIFECTA of propaganda potential for ya. Why not challenge me on the CONTENT in a post of mine? Instead, you pull this kind of ankle biter action. Well, you&#039;ve screwed the pooch w/your choice of post, it&#039;s pretty clear.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Somehow I really doubt this social rejection wouldn&#039;t have been moderated if he&#039;d been luckier in love (i.e., he wouldn&#039;t have turned into a murderer until possibly later in life). Screwing himself to oblivion every couple of days wouldn&#039;t have given him time to think about rejection. To be in that state and be a virgin at that age or to be unmarried when you&#039;re driving a BMW is a sign of someone who&#039;s just not with it socially... Let&#039;s not overcomplicate the psychological complexities of his case. It&#039;s fairly clear why he went batsh*t and it&#039;s not because of craving ultimate power over tons of people.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The various media don&#039;t promote anything about the manifestos but simply present them. If a writer sees evidence (just as Daniel Greenfield has seen evidence that leads him to lump all these various murderers together alongside Osama bin Laden and slap on a &quot;narcissism&quot; label) that there are specifics about the killer&#039;s reasons, the journalist will generally mention them. But what the MSM makes out of these manifestos is nothing if not based on what the writer has put down on paper themselves,


Did Jared Loughner&#039;s writings lead you to believe he was sane? Did the MSM&#039;s interpretations of his Loughner&#039;s writings lead you to believe he was sane? I don&#039;t recall any writer who ever persuaded me that Loughner was anything but what he was. As for the very different classifications of EVIL, let&#039;s not lump large-scale POLITICAL EVIL on the same scale of INDIVIDUAL EVIL like that of Jared Loughner. Besides, Loughner was patently crazy whereas Hilter was not patently crazy up until perhaps the point where his  insane world domination plan came crashing down. When Hitler&#039;s realization that his vision was imploding began to impress upon him that he and his Cabitnet ministers such as Goebbels would pay w/their lives for what they had done to the Jews throughout Europe, he truly began to go mad.


Trying to embellish an American President w/conflicting ideologies produces the same kind of analytical schizophrenia because you can&#039;t skewer one ideology without running afoul of the other. These are fundamentally opposing ideologies. If they weren&#039;t, you&#039;d find more Marxist Muslims or Islamist Marxists or however you want to combine them. Besides, Islam doesn&#039;t need to combine Marxism in its belief system because it already has an economic and financial system worked out within its tenets.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[You know, some of this stuff, that you see as a big cultural conspiracy just happens. I was arguing w/a Marxist professor about American culture and violence and she came out w/the &quot;proven fact&quot; that Hollywood movies and video games are leading to the violence in our culture. She said there was a huge conspiracy to produce movies and video games that kept Americans narcotized and passive and focused on entertainment rather than on life. I had to laugh at her theory because if you&#039;ve ever met any gamers and game designers, they are as funky and as capitalistic as anyone else in the U.S. They&#039;ve even begun to hold national gamer professional tournaments where serious money can be made and serious sponsorships are negotiated. So which comes first, the chicken or the egg?


The same holds true for identifying and analyzing the motives from someone&#039;s manifesto. Someone like Rodgers is very likely to reveal his true motives either directly or inadvertently, whereas someone like Hitler, while selling his suitability to be Chancellor of Germany early in his career to his fellow Germans, is liable to couch his own personal needs in the guise of national needs. Regardless, manifestos are rarely, if ever, mysterious documents, whether they&#039;re from some nutter like Rodgers or from some vicious sociopathic punk like Hitler, not if you&#039;re willing to do research and compare them w/other material from the person&#039;s life.  I totally disagree w/the premise we&#039;ve been conditioned to EMPATHIZE w/EVIL and relate to it via movies or any other cultural means. My belief is we are seeing iconic EVIL on display in movies and comic books and literature and we have a heightened AWARENESS of the existence of the potential for evil around us. But to believe that cultural artifacts are meant to inculcate in us that we empathize w/evil, NO WAY. What does SUPERMAN represent? The ultimate badass who kicks evil out of the universe. Ignoring the fact that evildoers are generally always given their comeuppance in our cultural milieu of books and movies disputes this belief we are meant to empathize w/evil.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Rodgers would most certainly have identified as a white American male because most kids take their father&#039;s position and status as their social arbiter. Besides, facially, Rodgers is not all that idenfitable as a mixed-ethnic individual, certainly not necessarily as a first-generation mixed-ethnic American. And, let&#039;s not forget, there&#039;s been a huge increase in the level of acceptance of mixed-race Americans throughout America but particularly where Rodgers was from. It&#039;s JUST NOT PART OF HIS ISSUES. His issues were SOCIAL and PSYCHOLOGICAL.]]></description>

And, let&#8217;s not forget, there&#8217;s been a huge increase in the level of acceptance of mixed-race Americans throughout America but particularly where Rodgers was from. It&#8217;s JUST NOT PART OF HIS ISSUES. His issues were SOCIAL and PSYCHOLOGICAL.</p>

		<description><![CDATA[Sorry, Daniel, but no. This is absolutely not the case. If it were there would be more PERSONAL VARIATION in these videos and there would be actual upscaling over time of the PRODUCTION VALUES, as would be shown by the art direction and the cinematography and the general overall quality would be getting higher and higher and higher to meet the personal needs of individual jihadis and their &quot;narcissism.&quot; That&#039;s NOT the case. These are POLITICAL STATEMENTS by these men going off to certain death.

These videos are identical in intention to the videos produced by the Japanese Kamikaze pilots of WW II. I&#039;m off to find some of the Kamikaze pilots&#039; video statements for the Japanese news media and we can compare.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[You haven&#039;t read Osama bin Laden&#039;s 9/11 manifesto. He had every specific points in that manifesto, the main one being the creation of a Palestinian state.

That manifesto certainly wasn&#039;t all about making Islam supreme throughout the world.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Daniel, many Muslims may be saying things like that because it is part of the theology of the faith. I believe CAIR and those who are dispatched to speak to the public proselytize in this way for all sorts of reasons. But CAIR and its connected individuals are only one part of Islam in America. More important, to me, is the fact that Islam hasn&#039;t evolved to the point where it&#039;s undergone a reformation that has fundamentally transformed the faith in ways we find less threatening to our way of life. Islam hasn&#039;t begun to evolve until recently because evolution and interpretation of the tenets of the faith was violently eliminated. Apostasy that ends at the point of a sword effectively shuts down the discussion before it even gets going. But there have been relatively few true reformers over the lifetime of Islam who have made progress in ways I believe will be taken even further by American Muslims and European Muslims. Mustafa Kamel Ataturk arose from somewhere, so what made him able to create a SECULAR TURKEY at that point in time? He wasn&#039;t a perfect individual, look what he allowed to happen, but he built a SECULAR Turkish state and it LASTED until the present day in the heart of the Middle East. We need to discover more men w/Ataturk&#039;s philosophy and capabilities who are willing to undertake a fundamental reformation of their faith.


We&#039;ve arrived at an era when there are a great many Muslims who are outside the ring of the Middle Eastern countries where they are automatically likely to lose their lives if they run afoul of the imams over an apostasy charge. American and European Muslims stand a better chance of getting a reformation movement started and carrying it through to fruition than any of the Middle Eastern countries. But those Muslims who stand up to their faith and say &quot;NO MORE&quot; and who either leave their faith and proselytize against Islam like Hiirsan Ali or who choose to become militant Muslims against Militant Islam, they may be able to destroy the worst, most pernicious tenets of Islam from within. However the fight is carried on against the societal challenges of Islam, America faces a unique situation because of our continental isolation, our geographic neighbors and our present demographics.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[More BS. Rodgers would never be considered White anyway according to the logic of this writer (or the whacko ethnic studies prof). BTW White males are not the ones killing most Black males - that honor goes to other Black males. As they get whacked by the thousands each year by their own, what do we hear from your references? Naught but cricket chirps.

Rodgers sure didn&#039;t define himself as a White Male (he used the word &#039;Eurasian&#039; to describe himself and no doubt thought himself privileged) and he had a measure admiration for his Malaysian roots. Read the manifesto and stop being lazy and stubborn - you&#039;re wrong.]]></description>
