Obama Defends Ban on Term ‘Radical Islam’

Barack Obama / AP

President Obama vigorously defended his administration’s counterterrorism policy on Tuesday of avoiding the term “radical Islam” when identifying terrorists, and denied political correctness was behind the ban.

“And the reason I am careful about how I describe this threat has nothing to do with political correctness and everything to do with actually defeating extremism,” Obama said following a White House National Security Council meeting on the Islamic State terror group.

Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump on Monday criticized the president for failing to prevent the Orlando massacre that killed 49 people and wounded 53 others. He blamed politically correct policies. “The current politically correct response cripples our ability to talk and to think and act clearly,” he said.

Security analysts also told the Washington Free Beacon the administration’s refusal to accurately identify or characterize radical Islam in its policies was to blame for the deaths of Americans.

The president dismissed debate over the terminology as partisan rhetoric and sharply criticized Trump for advocating a ban on Muslim immigration in response to the Orlando terror attack.

I am for it also. islam is islam. Either you submit to it or you do not. The is not layers such as moderate or radical. muslims are humans that choose to live like the satanic demons they worship.

Too bad 85% of the western world’s population are Christian and believe in loving their enemies will make their enemies love them. Too few realize and accept the fact that ALL Muslims see only one thing and it’s certainly not the Golden Rule. It’s a global Caliphate where non-believers are killed (dictated in Sharia) or enslaved, raped and then killed.

People in general are “sheep”. Bertrand Russell was correct when he said organized religion has caused more human misery than all the “natural disasters” combined.
