Why on earth do radical Muslims dislike the US?
I mean, apart from those who have lost a family member to US attacks (drones, ground troops, bombs, etc.). I wonder if things like this (reported by Zachary Roth at TPM Muckraker) have anything do with it:
A top Tea Party leader, enraged by a plan to build a mosque near Ground Zero, has referred to the Islamic deity as a "monkey-god" and to Muslims as "the animals of allah." His Tea Party group, meanwhile, tells TPMmuckraker it’s not concerned about the rhetoric.
Mark Williams, the conservative talk radio host who is listed as chairman of the Tea Party Express and acts as a frequent spokesman for the group, wrote on his blog Friday:
The animals of allah for whom any day is a great day for a massacre are drooling over the positive response that they are getting from New York City officials over a proposal to build a 13 story monument to the 9/11 Muslims who hijacked those 4 airliners.
The monument would consist of a Mosque for the worship of the terrorists’ monkey-god and a "cultural center" to propagandize for the extermination of all things not approved by their cult.
Williams continued:
The longest, most heavily researched and footnoted chapter in my book is about the fruit baskets and nut wads that gravitate to Islam and why it attracts such mental cases…
And he posted an image of the prophet Muhammad with a swastika on top of his head.
The building at issue is a project of the American Society for Muslim Advancement and the Cordoba Initiative. It will include a community center, a mosque, a gym, and other public spaces. The local community board voted unanimously to approve it, though such approval was not technically necessary, since the Islamic groups own the land.
Williams has a history of incendiary remarks. As we reported at the time, in February he called President Obama "a half-white racist" in an email to colleagues.
None of this appears to have prompted Tea Party Express — the prominent Tea Party group created and run by a California GOP consulting firm — to rethink its ties to Williams. Asked about the comments, Joe Wierzbicki of TPE told TPMmuckraker: "It doesn’t have anything to do with the Tea Party Express and the issues addressed by the tea party movement, and was written on Mr. William’s personal blog, and not on any Tea Party Express website, blog or social networking page."
But an activist for Tea Party Patriots didn’t mince words. "This is hate speech and has no place in the tea party movement," he said.
With guys like this looking out for the US, we’ll quickly see terrorism drop off because the terrorists will realize that he has their number! In fact, this guy is so effective at this, I think we should send him into Pakistan and Afghanistan on a single-person setting-them-straight mission.
