Democratic frontrunner Hillary Clinton has followed President Obama’s lead (from behind), refusing to identify the culprit of Radical Islam, despite a scourge of devastating attacks against the American homeland. At a campaign stop on December 2, Hillary opted for the term “shooters” instead of “terrorists” in reference to the San Bernardino Islamic jihadists.
“Now as we all know, on December 2, two shooters killed 14 people at a holiday party in San Bernardino, California,” Hillary suggested in a disturbingly carefree tone.
Hillary’s “shooters” wore tactical gear, amassed thousands of rounds of high power ammunition, and carried pipe bombs similar to al-Qaeda IEDs in Afghanistan. She must have missed that memo. To be fair, Ambassador Stevens did send innumerable emails and memos directly to her desk asking for extra security before he was mercilessly killed by Muslim radicals in Benghazi, but Hillary is a busy woman; leave her alone.
As far as Hillary’s relationship with Islam, the religion of peace, goes, delusion is perhaps an understatement.
“Let’s be clear: Islam is not our adversary. Muslims are peaceful and tolerant people and have nothing whatsoever to do with terrorism.”

According to Hillary, the shootings were random, inspired neither by ideology nor religion. The shooters were random, too. Even pointing to the fact that they were Muslim apparently marks you as a racist. Hillary Clinton demands that you muzzle yourself for the sake of political correctness. A Muslim couple that directly cites verses from the Quran, pledges allegiance to ISIS, and draws explicit inspiration from the Hadiths, has nothing whatsoever to do with Islam.
Hillary knows full well that in order to rally her liberal base during the Democratic primaries, she needs to robotically transform into a full Islamophile. The transformation is complete.
Hillary Clinton now sounds more like a Muslim imam than a candidate for the presidency of the United States of America. She makes a fantastic Islamic preacher, in fact. It’s too bad women are segregated, chastised, marginalized, demoted, abused, mutilated, and repeatedly raped under the pretense of a forced marriage in vast swaths of the Islamic world.
Ben Shapiro explains the cruel irony of Hillary’s obsessive adoration of Islam, writing in Breitbart:
This isn’t particularly surprising – the entire left has a peculiar soft spot for Islam.
That seems weird, given Islamic countries’ fundamental rejection of leftist values ranging from same-sex marriage to abortion to women driving. But it isn’t so weird when considered in the context of Marxist philosophy, which sees Islam not as a religious philosophy of its own, but as a sort of bizarre cultural outgrowth of poverty. Impoverished people believe weird things, say the Marxists; if we just gave ISIS jobs, they’d stop all this nonsense and start behaving like members of the ACLU. Leftists see Islam not as an ideological force converting millions, but as a knee-jerk response to lack of basic living standards.
In fact, leftists see all religion this way: as the refuge of the weakminded underclass. As Marx wrote, “Religion is the sigh of the oppressed creature, the heart of a heartless world, and the soul of soulless conditions. It is the opium of the people.” Barack Obama agrees: as he said back in 2008, poor people “get bitter, they cling to guns or religion or antipathy toward people who aren’t like them.”
The view that all religious practice is essentially the domain of the exploited would cut in favor of seeing all religious practices as equally worthy of dismissal.
But the left prefers Islam to Christianity. They’ll fight against anyone drawing pictures of Mohammed, but they’ll lose their minds if Christians complain about an “artist” soaking a statue of Jesus in urine.
Why do leftists treat Christianity and Islam differently, if both are merely chimerical responses to the vicissitudes of life? Because leftists see Christianity as the creator of Islam’s rise, and Christians as the victimizers of Muslims
“Let’s be clear: Islam is not our adversary. Muslims are peaceful and tolerant people and have nothing whatsoever to do with terrorism.”
Hillary Clinton
This is why Hillary Clinton won’t even utter the phrase “Radical Islam.” In an interview with George Stephanopoulos, Hillary passionately defended all the reasons why she wouldn’t use the phrase, insisting, “The problem is, that sounds like we are declaring war against a religion. That to me is number one, wrong. It doesn’t do justice to the vast numbers of Muslims in our own country and around the world who are peaceful people.” Here is Hillary in her own words:
A Hillary Clinton presidency would essentially be four more years of Obama: more dangerous political correctness and Islam-adoration.
