Islamic Barbarity and Leftist Complicity

Female Genital Mutilation, Islam and Leftist Silence – by Jamie Glazov (Frontpage Magazine)

A disturbing article about an even more disturbing practice, the barbaric form of amateur surgery known as female genital mutilation. For those who don't know, this primitive cultural/religious rite is popular in much of the Islamic world, including Jordan and Egypt. Another classic example of how leftists have a selective sense of moral outrage when it comes to dealing with Islam.

Here are some general guidelines, when trying to understand liberal hypocrisy. Liberals believe that:

• Only white people can be racist.
• All white people are racist.
• Black people cannot commit hate crimes. Even if blacks lynch a Jew in the streets of Crown Heights or set a white man on fire, it isn't a hate crime.
• Men are violent. Having testicles means you must constantly resist the urge to rape and beat women.
• The government has an obligation to remove guns from the hands of law-abiding citizens and to leave their hands off women who want to abort fully developed babies from "their bodies".
• Raping a child is acceptable if you're part of the decadent self-indulgent, Hollywood elite. It helps if you fled to Europe to escape persecution for your sexual beliefs.
• Gang-bangers who slaughter families with shotguns, but later go on to write children's books in prison, should be spared the electric chair.
• The death penalty is racist and immoral unless applied to fetuses who threaten to burden the potential mother with all sorts of responsibilities.
• The government has an obligation to force socialist universal health care upon everyone. Dr. Kevorkian's unique form of elder-care should be available on demand (just like cable television). Infanticide. Geronticide. But no pesticides.
• Islam is a beautiful religion. (It is racist to ask them to give examples.)
• Slavery is bad when it is committed by whites. The slavery of the Arab/Islamic world that persists to this day is an entirely different matter, one which cannot be judged through the prism of western eyes.
• The U.N. is a moral institution committed to blah, blah, blah.
• A black president cannot be stupid no matter how stupid he is. Nor can a black president be racist or anti-semitic no matter how many associations he has with racists and anti-semites. If you say otherwise, you must be racist.
• Rape and adultery are bad, unless they were committed by a pig-faced former President who for some inexplicable reason is a darling of leftists, despite eight years of negligence and incompetence.
• Iran isn't a threat to the world. Israel is the problem.
• Looters and rioters who want to f**ck up whitey and get some free s**t have the right to vent by whatever means they deem necessary.
• Israel has no right to protect itself. That would accomplish nothing and might actually harm the peace process.
• Violence is bad unless it is committed by the left. Or by "freedom fighters" who have no choice but to detonate themselves in populated malls.
