Why They Hate Us – VI

Yet another vile, putrid, anti-American article appeared in the Arab News of Saudi Arabia. As usual, it was written by an American leftist. The Western leftists always write far more vacuous, paranoid, and scathing calls to distrust and hate Westerners than the Arab authors do. So let's look at today's steaming pile of inchoate verbiage spewed up for the Saudis from someone that I assumed was a fashion designer till I read the byline.

— Sarah Whalen is an expert in Islamic law and teaches law at Loyola University School of Law in New Orleans, Louisiana.

Color me impressed. She can probably recite all the legal justifications for stoning herself. And believe me, you can't evince this level of self-hatred without thinking about it all the time.

NEW ORLEANS, Louisiana, 16 April 2004 — An old American song goes, “Don’t know much about history.... Don’t know much about the rise and fall. Don’t know much about nothing at all.”

Sounds like the song sung by National Security Advisor Condoleezza Rice before the 9/11 Commission.

Oh, no bias there, eh? Just the clear legal insight from someone who purports to be a lawyer.

The scary part? If Bush wins a second term, rumor is he will reward Rice’s performance with promotion to secretary of state or defense.

What's this chattering twit will find really scary is that we don't know who we'll run in 2008, but Condi's looking pretty good.

That’s pretty crazy, considering that most of what Rice said was simply wrong.

And now she'll try to enlightenment the Saudi's about these mistaken points, I'm sure. If she does a good enough job I'm sure her article will end up pinned to the wall in all the major Al-Qaeda training camps, too.

Rice blames 9/11 not on the Bush administration’s or her own negligence, but on America’s “old ways of thinking and acting.”

As the hearings are showing, 9/11 seems to be the fault of a particularly violent strain of Muslim thought developed mostly in Egypt and *cough* Saudi Arabia, where leftists like this have been writing unbelievably anti-American articles to win over the, um, hardliners. Even Osama was being a bit concillatory in his latest threats, but the left just never lets up. So I'm sure this leftist lawyer will dive right in and blame Bush for everything we didn't do under the eight years of the Clinton administration.

But it’s hard for Rice to come up with new ideas when she doesn’t know much about history and the Middle East, which she claims, in ludicrous overstatement, is “the world’s most dangerous region.”

She's not only aware of history and the Middle East, she made a large hunk of it. Despite the way this Louisianna moonbat is used to thinking about the "unpaid" help, Condi Rice got to the top of the political world by mastering the subjects of, get this, history and international relations.

That may be true if you’re driving there. It has a very high rate of fatal traffic accidents. But if Rice means possessing weapons of mass destruction, North Korea is plenty more dangerous. And for terrorism, it’s hard to beat Colombia, which the US State Department describes as the most dangerous place on earth.

Oh, ok. I guess every company that works in the region hires all those private security companies because they're so good at defensive driving. And we know North Korea has nuclear weapons, and we know North Korea is going to aim them at us. What was Condi working on before 9/11? Trying to make sure we have a way of hitting North Korea's nuclear weapons. What a shocker. On the flip side, a North Korean won't be overheard saying "Ahmed my brother. My cousin has got a nuclear weapon! We must use it to kill as many infidels as possible!" And as for Columbia, yes, the leftist Shining Path guerillas are extremely violent, hateful, and pathetic, like the far left in general, yet they haven't yet evinced a design to fly airliners into buildings. I'll put it this way. With terrorists crawling all over the Middle East, killing Westerners and their fellow Muslims in just about every country (I think they've missed Kuwait so far), she instead focuses on their highway fatalities.

But maybe this is all in some memo that a powerful man hasn’t yet handed to Rice.

It's so obvious we don't even have to jot it down in a memo. There are whole sections of books on the subject. Maybe this airheaded chatterbox should read the paper that is running her article once in a while. They Saudi's are all talking about the threats from these jihadis too.

Also needing tweaking is Rice’s notion that the US “removed from power two of the world’s most brutal regimes, sources of violence and fear and instability.” Decades previously, America considered Iraq, both before and during Saddam Hussein, to be a bulwark of Western-style, secular stability against volatile, religiously-roiling Iran.

That's because after he fought the Iranians for about a decade, Saddam never let up, continued to put his own people into death camps, and finally invaded Kuwait. During that war he pounded two foreign countries with medium range ballistic missiles while declaring death on the American infidels. Since then he tried to assassinate one US president, stood in violations of 14 UN sanctions, and struck backroom deals with half the UN to smuggle oil for weapons and fancy French food for his army of Ba'athist Arab National Socialists.

And while the US “removed” Saddam “from power,” the same can hardly be said of Libya’s Muammar Qaddafi, who remains very much in place. And far from living in “fear and violence,” impoverished North Africans flock to Libya for jobs, education, and its overall “quality of life” which is high, compared to other nearby places.

Man, she's so flighty I'm getting whiplash. First we're wrong for invading Saddam, and then we're wrong for not invading Libya. There's a key difference. Libya cooperated with getting rid of their WMD, and Saddam continued to evade and elude.

Rice’s ridiculous and often laughable remarks seek to justify policies she claims are “bold and comprehensive changes.”

She's changing the map of the world, so I wouldn't call what she's doing "laughable". If this muddle headed lawyer would bother reading the Saudi papers, she'd find out how incredibly seriously the region takes her.

“(W)e cannot wait while dangers gather,” Rice insists. But this, the “Bush doctrine” of pre-emption, is nothing less than eternal war. A doctrine contemptuously rejected by America’s Founding Fathers. A doctrine that inspired Europe to start two world wars in modern times alone.

No, a doctrine of not getting blindsided by sneak attacks is not eternal war. It's eternal vigilence. Eternal war is what you typically get when a succession of administrations does little to prevent terrorist attacks for 30 years. Some wars don't end just because you want to pack up and go home and suck down a bowl of French gumbo.

Rice doesn’t even know her own country’s history. In her 9/11 Commission testimony, she incongruously referred to her African-American heritage with the line, “When our Founding Fathers said, ‘We the people,’ they didn’t mean me.”

I think I'll have to score that one to Condi.

Well, of course “they” didn’t “mean” Rice, who wasn’t even born yet. But in fact the Founding Fathers were distressed about slavery, anticipated that slaves would someday be citizens, and their Constitution’s Article 1, Section 2, Clause 3 did include both persons of color and even slaves, as well as white indentured servants.

Oh, is that so oh illustrious law professor. Maybe she should get her butt out of her chair, walk out of her office in "stupidity studies", and go explain that one to some professors in the history department, and especially the professors of black history. Here is Article 1, Section 2, Clause 3.

Clause 3: Representatives and direct Taxes shall be apportioned among the several States which may be included within this Union, according to their respective Numbers, which shall be determined by adding to the whole Number of free Persons, including those bound to Service for a Term of Years, and excluding Indians not taxed, three fifths of all other Persons.

Yep. It looks clear as a bell. Slaves count as three fifths for representation and taxation, but cannot vote. There's "We" and then there's "all other Persons", and Condi's family wasn't originally considered part of the "We".

Rice plays her race card, word for word, to garner admiration. In fact, she has trotted it out before Muslim-American audiences to justify US intervention in Iraq.

When Saddam's statue finally did a face plant many Muslim Americans, especially the Iraqi Americans, where literally dancing in the streets.

Unless she now claims to be an American Indian, Rice’s statement’s just wrong, and she should stop saying it.

I guess she should just get her black ass back in the kitchen then, eh? After all, a leftist democrat law professor has spoken. Then again, maybe Condi is an American Indian. Tiger Woods is Indian, Heather Locklear is American Indian, her last name meaning "hold fast" in the language of the Tuscarora tribe. So if Condi turns out to have some Indian ancestry I wouldn't be surprised in the slightest.

But ignorance aside, does Rice really “welcome new ideas and fresh thinking?”

What amazing about this arrogant bitch-tardress lawyer is how she can assert that Condi is "ignorant" when she got to the top of the pyramid purely by knowing more than everybody else. I guess in the inverted world of the Marxist-Muslim moonbats "knowledge" means "ignorance". Yet ignorance and hatred is something she's decided not to let fester in the tyrannical sandbox box of the Middle East. I guess that's just some of that "fresh thinking", though.

Not likely, if it interferes with Bush’s Cold War-style mongering. But here are a few she should chew on.

Ooo… He's a mongerer! I wonder where that is in Black's Law Dictionary?

First, either stop the democracy charade or make it a reality, then live with it. If Iraqis could vote tomorrow, they would vote the US out of town. And India, where Muslims vote all the time, is voting to resist America’s agenda.

But they can't vote tomorrow, now can they? And most Iraqis want the US to stay on until there's no threat of idiots like al-Sadr taking over, no doubt inspired by this leftist loser's "lucid logic". And Muslims can vote in India, but they are a minority there. Maybe she's thinking of Pakistan, which used to be ruled as part of India until *gasp* history happened.

The alternative? Deal with states that choose religious or quasi-religious governance forms. Ask: Is the US really better off for having no relations with Muslim-run states like Iran?

Instead just ask this. Is Iran better off with its jihadist theocracy, and is anyone better off with a nuclear armed jihadist movement?

But the real “fresh thinking” Rice claims to prize will focus on Israel. Showing compassion for Palestinians, restoring their stolen lands, restoring their national identity, and fairly criticizing and sanctioning their tormenters, would do much to reduce the global terrorist threat.

Ok, She just launches back into "Blame the Jooooos…. Round #382017"

And if Rice insists upon a truly democratic process, imagine this, if you dare: Imagine a Middle East in which all persons of that tiny, troubled and oh-so troubling state have equal rights and vote in the same elections.

A historian would point out that having two groups with deep animosity toward each other trying to start up as a fledgling democracy will often result in a genocidal civil war. My money's on the Jews.

Imagine a one-state solution.

She's as dumb as those "Imagine World Peace" types, so how about this, oh airheaded asshat. Imagine Rwanda with AK-47s and M-16s. And I swear if I see that slogan on a bumper sticker I'm resorting to ramming.

If the United States showed compassion and championed those aspects of the Palestinian cause that cry out most for immediate justice, there is not a nation in the world that would not bend a knee, or extend a hand, in friendship, thanks, and profound admiration.

Awww… Isn't that just so fucking sweet? Unicorns will bound through the field, butterflies will spring newly hatched from people's asses, and puppy dogs will always poop on the paper. *hugs self*

And admiration leads to imitation, which would lead to a true and lasting peace. And perhaps even to the global democracy that Rice purports to crave.

Slow down there Sarah, and back away from the bong. So the US just shows compassion and champions the single state solution, the Israelis slap it down, and then, um, all the dictatorships in the world decide to abandon everything and become the greatest thing since, well, the US. Or maybe Israel goes for it. Now name the country that can live peacefully with Palestinians? Jordan – attempted coup by Palestinians. Palestinians kicked out. Lebanon – kicked out. Kuwait – kicked out. Iraq – kicked out. See a pattern here? If the Jordanians couldn't get along with them do you think the people they've sworn to butcher can get along with them?

Are Bush and Rice up to the task? Not if they can’t even recognize it. They need to learn some history. Some geography. Learn about the rise and fall.

Learn about he rise and fall of what, Crayola University School of Law standards for professors? All they need to learn about that is in this dingbat's article.

But clearly, they’re more comfortable learning about nothing at all.

Well if tripe like this is evidence of knowledge, Lord only knows how they'd "learn".

Bush: "Ok Condi, now exactly what did Rumsfeld and Powell say about those butterflies again? I'm not eatin' any grubs you know."
Condi: I'm not sure Mr. President, but all our detractors keep claiming that if we sign on to this single-state idea, it will last longer than the three-weeks the Pentagon analysts indicate, and that butterflies will come flying out from people's posteriors.
Bush: "They're fuckin' crazy aren't they."
Condi: "Mad as hatters, sir."

And remember, this is what the Saudi's are reading today, brought to them by a reactionary anti-American left wing moonbat.
