Dear Media: Glenn was right. You were wrong. Apologize."Let’s lay this out as quickly as possible. Glenn says this on the radio:
BECK: What is the number of Islamic terrorists? One percent? I think it’s closer to 10 percent"
"The typical idiotic left wing blogs go nuts. Then some not-so-typically-idiotic sources go nuts too.[...]
To show how ridiculously pathetic the hype on this manufactured nonsense is-let’s start with definitions. What is a terrorist? From dictionary.com, definition number one:
'a person, usually a member of a group, who uses or advocates terrorism.'
Okay, now what is terrorism? Would you say that 'attacks on civilians in the US' is an acceptable definition? Seems reasonable in this context, doesn’t it?
Okey dokey-here are the facts. All of this is according to a scientific poll of people in Muslim nations done by the respected group World Public Opinion."
[see link for data from Muslim nations]
"Alright, now that we have the facts…let me articulate the lefts last ditch argument:
'But those are only people who advocate terrorism! Not people who are terrorists!!'
First, allow me to point out that your argument has now boiled down to:
'Glenn Beck lied! He said that 10% of Muslims want to kill innocent civilians when the truth is that 10% of Muslims SUPPORT killing innocent civilians!'"
"What is truly amazing is how completely shocking this is to most of the media. This is very basic information about the war on terror. Anyone who has ever covered a terrorism story should be intimately acquainted with these polls. To be shocked by a statement like Glenn’s, shows either a willful disregard for the information*, or a complete lack of perspective about what we’re fighting."
"The sad truth is that there are a lot of Muslims around the world who really don’t like us. That’s not a right wing tactic to get people riled up, it’s the truth. It’s a small percentage of a large group."
You know what doesn't improve the situation? Liberals lying about it and condemning those who tell the truth doesn't help. What is it about the Modern Liberal that compels them to support failure, evil and self-destruction? And if they love those things so much, why won't they just move to Europe? The rest of us really wouldn't mind.
