I recently received a “cold” e-mail from an alleged female. It read:
Hi
America has always been a melting pot, but in the post-9/11 world the environment can be downright hostile. Recent mosque protests and congressional hearings on American Muslims are all unfortunate examples of a rising tide of fear. This climate of suspicion towards our fellow Americans compromises the great values that our country was founded upon. We’ve put together a 2 minute film in response that I believe you and the readers of Bloviating Zeppelin will be interested in sharing, watching, and discussing:
The site also has many other cool features including the ability to share your own stories and even taking the “My Fellow American” pledge. I would love it if you could post or tweet about this and share the video. If you can, please let me know. I am here if you have any questions. Thank you so much.
Elizabeth

At first blush, I should care to point out: before 9-11, Islam wielded a minimalist hold on our country. Only after 9-11 did we become “guilty” — though we somehow, mystically, magically became SHORT at least 3,500 New Yorkers on that date. And wrecked a number of expensive buildings. Somehow.
After 9-11, we provided — as GOWPs — a venue to hear/consider/proffer/enable Islam. Up to that point, I couldn’t have cared less about Islam because, of course, Islam couldn’t have cared less about me.
In response to this “cold” e-mail I wrote:
Elizabeth:
Wrong blogger.
It’s not fear, it’s common sense.
Unless and until I hear and read, weekly, the bulk of Muslims condemning Islamists, I don’t have a microsecond of time for Islam.
As I have written for, now, literally, years: “Islam IS as Islam DOES.”
And Islam does naught but wreak havoc and rain death upon not simply the rest of the world; that would be, a bit, understandable. But Islam kills its own indicating to me that Islam is unworthy of validation. There is a reason that this paragraph is true:
“Me against my brother. me and my brother against my cousin. Me, my brother, and my cousin against the stranger.”
Islam stems from bedouins and tribalism, nomadism. It respects, generally, nothing but strength. MALE strength.
Quite frankly, I’m surprised that a female — Elizabeth Potter — YOU — can possibly support such a misogynist “religion” — actually, a Death Cult — as Islam.
Unless, of course, you simply wish to be dominated. Kudos for you if this is you. That is an individual choice but NOT a choice of MY WIFE, for example.
So Elizabeth, I say to you: go away.
You’re boring, a pawn, and a sublimist.

P.S.
You read the internet?Check THIS out. Of course, Islam as peaceful and receding and tolerant.
Not quite.
So I say to you again: go away. Don’t send me any more e-mails.

Further, Islam is attempting to create entirely new states within defeatist/weak/Leftist Western states:
From the UK MailOnline:
Islamic extremists have called on British Muslims to establish three independent states within the UK.
The notorious Muslims Against the Crusades (MAC) group have named Yorkshire towns Bradford and Dewsbury and Tower Hamlets in East London as testbeds for blanket sharia rule.
The medieval ’emirates’ would operate entirely outside British law, according to a document on the MAC website.
It always amazes me when women support Islam. Because women are and will be the first to be subsumed and cast aside by Islam as practiced currently.
I ask: women, Leftists as you may be, do you not see the misogynistic-writing-on-the-wall?
Evidently: not.
Are you all historically blondes and bimbos?
Or are you actually, truly, this stupid?

To Elizabeth Potter, you have got to be a Dem/Libber, Islamic ass kisser and the scum of the earth…
Go stick a pistol in your mouth, a large caliber, LOADED, and do us ALL a favor, pull the trigger you imbecile…
Hasalama Lakem or something…
The left’s love of Islam baffles me too, especially leftist women. what the hell are they thinking? do they secretly dream of being violently raped for walking un-escorted down the street? who knows?
your point about the sudden “guilt” after 9/11 hit me, Israel deals with that shit all the time too, this “flotilla of aid” to the Gaza strip, a place of shopping malls and resort hotels that Israel feeds nearly free gratis needs aid from a flotilla of leftists and terrorists? yet, because of the leftist media coverage, many people think so.
Everything I need to know I learned in Kindergarten. If you hit a bully in the nose, the bully finds someone else to pick on.
She is a spin off of the “Visualize Peace” crowd.
Islam is lame.
TF, she e-mailed me out of the blue with the subject line: “Muslims as citizens and neighbors.”
Yeah. Right.
Mark: I don’t get it. I suppose I never will. And I’m glad of it. MY woman will be safe!
WSF: “visualize whirled peas.”
Symbols: chu goddit, mang.

The left’s love of Islam baffles me too, especially leftist women. what the hell are they thinking?
Not so hard to figure out, it’s the hatred of common foes, democracy(the west) and Israel.
I, too, would feel better if the horrors of islamists were less unchallenged and hundreds of thousands of muslims were marching against it.
Muslims changed American’s minds themselves, Americans did not.
9/11 will have changed America FOREVER in horrible ways…
While not all muslims wanted 911 to happen (we can only hope), why pick that date to start the PUSH? the demands, the threats, the whining?
march in the thousands FOR the American way of life, convince US we have nothing to fear; we didn’t bring this on ourselves, WE need to prove NOTHING.
i think that musta been a mass emailing bz – even i got that one on my yahoo email account!! didn’t make it through the first sentence before i hit the delete button….
I just don’t understand… sigh…
What I find even more perplexing is how a free woman would want to subject herself to bondage and slavery by marrying a Muslim man. They lose everything, including their identity.
I don’t think we can fully understand why the Left embrace such a hostile religion or people, but they do.
And yet, Christians are the devil.
I don’t get it either. My niece, a smart, accomplished, educated young woman has no problem defending Islam. Oh, she doesn’t like they way they treat women but it’s their culture.
I don’t get it.

So true!
And I’m growing very, very weary of this attempt to impose on my Islamophobic guilt. It is not Islamophobia when they really are trying to kill you!
BTW, you might be interested in this information. How far political correctness has taken America down!
