Ibn Warraq answers the Beaks basic question.

I have long been amazed at the hypocrisy of the far left on the history of Islam and anti Semitism. The mere discusion of the facts about Islamic history draw hysterical cries of racism. This becomes astounding when Muslims Arabs and fictitional Palestinians do not constitute a race. The far left does not like when Conservatives like myself use the Zinn model in the same exact manner that it is used to bash Western Civ by the far left.

Ibn Warraq in the introduction traces the sanitization of Islam back to the Noble Savage idiocy, this in fact was based in a type of racism itself. Thomas Jefferson contrary to popular belief scoffed at the Noble Savage idiocy.

The left historicaly used this myth to bash Christianity, the Industrial revolution and now Capitalism. The original adherents as doccumented by Warraq could not read Arabic and had zero contact with actual socities based on Islam. Thus the left is really not interested in Islam because the game is tearing down Capitalism by any means available.

It’s amazing how the far left will side with anyone who is against America, the bastion of capitalism. This is true even if they must side with a religion (as long as it’s not Christianity or Judaism) that embodies everything the left should find anathema.

It’s amazing how the far left has developed a blind spot when it comes to Islam just to side with those who attack America, the bastion of capitalism. And, of course, there are convenient ready-made myths to help swallow the idea that Muslims are just poor noble victims acting out in response to the bad powerful America.

It really about whose side and not “ideals and principles.”

Hey Ducko

Ariel Sharon is attempting to demonstrate real leadership . What have the fake indigenous people who allready have twenty three states do to reign in their exteemists. Sharon and Netanyahu are real men ( unlike you or President Lewinsky ). Now that Gaza will be made Judenfrei the quiestion is why Islamic states need to be defacto ethnically cleansed has not occurred to a simpleton like yourself.

Calling Netanyahu a Nazi is simple antisemic drivel that we expect from illbred bird brains like yourself. You still never responded to what nation put Muslims in cattle cars and commited ethnic cleansing, that is right it was your fellow progressives but lets focus on the Joooooooos.

THe connection between Syria and terror has been established for decades. Try reading some material
other then mother Jones and High Times.

Way to go Jason, another fucking stupid piece of white bread who thinks Syrian spec-ops are going to para into his neighborhood at any time. So Jason, while you pontificate about the left's "blind spot" how do you feel about President Asswipe getting us butt fucked in Iraq. A country with no army, no navy, no air force and this fucking joke couldn't even handle that job.

Someone needs to teach Mr. Ducky about the Fedayeen Saddam.

"Eisenstadt agrees that the Fedayeen are not well trained, and unlikely to employ any kind of tactical sophistication."

Wow, they sound formidable. So besides scaring the shit out of you, Jason and the Beak what's the deal?


What level of "tactical sophistication" do you see behind kidnapping unarmed people and beheading them, or sending suicide bombers among them to blow them up?

(i.e. the Saddam Fedayeen employed these tactics upon Shia and Kurds when Saddam Hussein was in power and is a significant part of the laughable "insurgency" today that YOU fear, Mr. Ducky)

Many of the fighters are not Iraqi and there have been conection between the Syrian, Iranian intelgence agencies and Hezbollah. If the US was smart they would parade the foriegners but then whining Commie finks like yourself would start another temper tantrum.

More people were killed in an average Saddam year then the US occupation. How did your fellow progressives deal with this Yellow rain, mines shaped like toys and cattle cars to Siberia.
