Unless you take PNAC's agenda into account.

Fundamentalists are fundamentalists.

Well this is incredibly ironic in a dark, twisted way, given that the ultraconservatives and radical Muslims like to think they are polar opposites.

Among the material he had was a piece arguing 9/11 and the OKC bombings were government conspiracies, one about the "rape of our gun rights," one about white supremacy that stated, "Hitler had a point," and one deriding the use of drones in the Middle East.

So I guess the next logical step is for us to ban conservative libertarian immigration, and export those already here... you know, just like what we should do with Muslims... right? Right?
From the article:

"He (Tamerlan) just didn't like America. He felt like America was just basically attacking all Middle Eastern countries…you know trying to take their oil."

So basically he's a liberal? Good job libs.

Like I said earlier, wingnuts and terrorists are the flip side of the same coin.
Uh huh.

Other than McVeigh how many significant right-wing terror attacks have their been in the US?

Face it, you want to this to be about your political enemies. You want people who disagree with you to be violent so you will have a justification to violently repress them.

And the overwhelming majority of Christian groups oppose bombing abortion clinics.

Also, I did a bit a research and since 1977 I found 8 murders (four of them being abortion doctors) and 17 attempted murders relating to anti-abortion activity in both the US and Canada.

http://www.prochoiceamerica.org/asse...n-Violence.pdf

That is equal to 0.69 cases of murder or attempted murder per year across two nations with over 340 million people.

I can literally find more cases of people being murdered for being smokers or wearing a t-shirt that offended the murderer than I can of abortion doctors being killed.

So, anti-abortion violence is just like Islamic Fundamentalist violence with the exception of that it is less common, less random, and less deadly.

Oh, and by the way, I am pro-choice.

Not all.

Haven't met a Liberal or Progressive yet who didn't support unborn infanticide.

Hypocrisy, indeed.

Since we're discussing false flags, anyone got a copy of that Sandy Hook police report?

No?

Didn't think so.

Hate to burst your self satisfied little bubble here but the next logical step is to use basic rational capability to see that they are interested in gun rights because they were terrorists who want easy access to weaponry, they were interested in Hitler because they are anti-Semitic, and are anti-drone because the drones are being used against the Muslim extremists they supported.

It's like the idiots who claim that Morsi was a legitimate president of Egypt because was democratically elected. Yes, he was democratically elected. He then promptly used that position to nullify the very same constitution he was elected under.

Also, your attempt to get in a little jab on immigration is an utter failure as well. No conservatives want to ban immigration. They want to stop illegal immigration. No conservatives want to deport people based on their ideology. Some of them want to deport people who have no legal right to be here, regardless of the ideology of those people. Also, you have Rubio as one of the prominent supporters of immigration reform. And what is Rubio's affliiation? Oh, that's right. He's Tea Party.

I'm curious -

Was it a right wing or a left wing organization that invited the President of Iran to give a speech?

Was it a right wing or a left wing organization that aided with the arms shipment to Hezbolah?

Was it a right wing or a left wing justice who gave an interview in the middle east saying that Egypt shouldn't seek inspiration from the American constitution?

Is it right wing or left wing student organizations that hold pro-Palestinian rallies on school campuses?

Was it right wing or left wing commentators and politicians supporting a mosque at Ground Zero?

Was it a right wing or a left wing professor who said the people in the World Trade Center deserved to be murdered?

Why is it that some of these people package Christians in the same box as other religions - that do not have the civilized doctrines that Christians hold sacred. There are Islamic enclaves in this world where they hang young men in public who they suspect might be gay....They chop the heads off of people they sense insult Islam. They brutally smash in the skulls and faces of woman simply for being woman...I am tired of secularists who class Christianity as being the same as the vilest parts of Islam.

There is a huge difference between a Christian that might not like or approve of certain behaviors and a backward and raging Islamic. A Christian is not going to kill you. Others will.
