GEN BOYKIN GETS THE SANTORUM TREATMENT

Gen Boykin has now supposedly: "compared radical Muslims to Satan" according to ABC's top-of-the-hour radio news report. Of course it's not true, but it is the exact same tactic and word used to distort and inflame Santorum's Christian views. Coincidence?

By the way, even without the distortion, the media blowing this thing out of proportion is only going to spread the offending words to a billion more Muslims than would have otherwise heard them. It's now international news. So although Boykin's words weren't a big deal in a church setting, now the irresponsible media has given them a distorted life of their own.

Again, the liberal media is actually taking sides against a key U.S. military leader and using their power to fuel the Muslim's holy war. And they have the gall to accuse Gen Boykin of not being aware how his speech might be distorted and lead to consequences?!? The media is doing the distortion and creating the consequences in real time for us all.

These reporters are fools. Isn't the success of the war against the axis of evil and evil terrorists more important than outing Christians officials who might dare to identify the spirit behind evil? Well, Boykin did more though. He committed the greatest sin in the world, according to liberals, by daring to thank God for the timely election and leadership of George Bush. "And how dare he point out that Allah is an idol and not the same god as the Judeo-Christian God," the reporters must have said to themselves. "Let's disrupt the U.S. war leadership and sound an alarm to get all Muslims around the world fired up!"

For what it's worth, the thing that stuck with me most in this war was a comment by Charles Krauthammer after the quick victory in Afghanistan. He made a Boykin-like comment that, as we have more victories, it will begin to dawn on the radicals and the fickle "Arab street" that Allah is not all-powerful against those who worship the Judeo-Christian God.

I saw immediately that each loss will sap their will to fight mostly because they're fighting as a religious act for the same Allah that would be repeatedly failing them. That's an objective fact than a professional athiest General should conclude. We should use it in our psyops. If we have generals who can't think in strategic religious terms like that then they should be fired. Just because we don't want to fight a holy war doesn't mean we aren't in one.

This spiritual aspect of the war is primarily why it's so dangerous to allow Afghanistan and Iraq to flare up again. It's not just about those two countries. The dangerous message the radicals worldwide will take from any comeback is a revival of "Allahu Akbar" -- leading to a rebound in recruiting on the streets. All hell would break loose if Allah comes through and the momentum appears to be swinging back in their favor.

In this case it’s not just the reporters who are foolish. I’ll grant that some of Boykin’s statements belong to the realm of theology, and are probably unwise for a leader to say publicly.

But when he says that they hate us because we’re Christians and Jews, he is stating a precisely accurate and important truth. The administration insists that “they hate us because we’re free”. That’s pure nonsense, and leads to weakness.

“Isn’t the success of the war against the axis of evil and evil terrorists more important than outing Christians officials who might dare to identify the spirit behind evil?” Not to reporters and editors in American’s mainstream media. To them, this is Bush’s War.

“We are a Christian people… according to one another the equal right of religious freedom, and acknowledging with reverence the duty of obedience to the will of God.”

Source: U.S. Supreme Court in United States v. Macintosh [283 U.S. 605-635, argued April 27, 1931. Decided May 25, 1931.] The quote above appears in the majority opinion of the decision, section 625.

If anyone is interested, I can submit the entire 625 section of the decision, which is very facinating reading (unlike today’s decisions that require the reader to have a some background in the reading of case law…)

Great post, Chris. On my blog, I point out how hypocritical it is for the L.A. Times (and now the rest of the liberal media) to talk about “sending the wrong message” to the Islamic world, because they are the ones sending the wrong message.

ryan’s right, I mean what the f**k?

we are supposed to watch what we say, but the muslim world spends every day talking about destroying us?

C’mon, you know this is the media’s way of getting THEIR boys all pumped up!

Amazing…all hail political correctness!

You know, if Gen. Patton had uttered those words, nobody within earshot of him would have even blinked.

Ah, what advancements we’ve made…NOT!
