“This Just Not In™: FBI ‘almost certain’ Paris attack on satirical magazine caused by North Korea.” Harry Shearer.
Within a few minutes of hearing of the RELIGIOUS attack by MUSLIMS on the magazine Charlie Hebron, both humorist Harry Shearer and I thought of North Korea, though for very different reasons. Shearer’s quote was to reflect his belief that we are wrong about it being North Korea who hacked Sony, strange to do that when just the day before the FBI found the smoking IP address which petty much put all doubt aside that it was anyone other than North Korea that hacked Sony. Shearer went on to take the Ben Affleck side to attack Bill Maher for blaming Muslims.
No, my thoughts of North Korea was to wonder if we will now take that country off our EVIL EMPIRE list, after all, what they did to Sony was a nanonit on a bosen compared to what was done by MUSLIMS in Paris, or New York, or Boston, or Syria, or Mosel, or Somalia, or Israel or…
Also consider that Paris was about a cartoon rendering of the 1400 year old Muslim leader, while The Interview was a two hour movie promoting the assassination of the present leader of a nation.
There is also the difference of North Korea doing their evil to their own rather than ISLAM violently exporting it everywhere in the world.
And of course the difference between an atheist society that yaps and hacks and a religious society that kills and murders.
The most consistently violent region on Earth is the Middle East, and since 911 the top issue in the world with the most blood on the ground has been caused by the intolerant nature of religion, specifically Islam. END OF STORY. Bill Maher is right. And he better watch out… For I am sure he will be doubling down come Friday night. But I must say there is nothing really wrong with the Affleck / Shearer side of the argument, it is nice rather than honest.
But… These Hollywood liberals have Muslim friends who are okay. And we can’t paint all people with the same brush. We must be politically correct. We must see the big picture and not discriminate.
You know, since I moved to Texas 35 years ago a good share of the friends I have made are racists. It comes with the territory. Most white people in Southern society are racists. That was the deeper issue of Paul Deen, she is no different than MOST women down here. Of course I avoid the issue in person, but when they shove it in my face I will speak up to it. I do not whitewash it. I do not deny it. I do not call it something it isn’t. And I do not pretend it is only a just a few errant individuals.
