Obama and Islamist Terrorism

Is the White House a ‘Sleeper Cell’?

"Just yesterday I theorized the real reason Obama didn’t go is he just couldn’t put the words “Islamic” and “terrorism” together in one sentence even if, forgive the tired image, it hit him in the face. (The exception of course being when insisting that something is NOT Islam.) He just can’t handle it after nearly fifty years of virtually non-stop anti-imperialist programming. His mind would fly apart if he had to utter the words “radical Islamic terrorism,” which French PM Valls, and any honest person, was quite willing to do."

I think it's simpler than that. For Obama and the American Left, Islam is a much favored Victimhood Class, one which shares their hatred of western values. So when the Victimhood Class "acts out", it is a trivial event not worthy of notice much less discussion. There is no outrage to be had, because when Victimhood Classes engage the Oppressor Class, how is that a bad thing? This was made clear in the Left's attitude toward the burning of Ferguson and the call to kill cops in NYC: the blacks are Victims and must be heard and understood, not criticized.

I don't think the White House is an Islamic sleeper cell; it is a Marxist sleeper cell.

Note that Obama's response now is to clamp down on the media and the internet; privacy might be sacred for women wanting to kill their progeny, but not for the constitutional bastions of free speech. "Never waste a crisis"; always use it to remove freedoms, hamper the economy and/or degrade the once-exceptional culture... especially while enriching the already stinking rich consorts of Leftist arrogance (re: ObamaCare/Quantitative Easing).
