While Democrats here in the US and other liberals around the world have been wringing their hands and getting the vapors over the CIA enhanced interrogation program, hardcore Islamists have been doing what they do: kill people in gruesome ways. ISIS beheads people, including Americans. And the Taliban….
(NY Times) In one of Pakistan’s bloodiest attacks in recent years, scores of people were killed after a group of Taliban gunmen stormed a school in northern Pakistan, officials and rescue workers said on Tuesday. Hundreds of students remained trapped inside the compound as security forces exchanged fire with the gunmen, officials said.
The toll of dead and injured remained uncertain, but the local news media, citing government officials and hospitals, reported 126 dead, more than 100 of them children. The army press office announced that five attackers had been killed.
The siege started Tuesday morning around 10 a.m. when at least five to six heavily armed Taliban gunmen entered Army Public School and Degree College in Peshawar, the capital of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Province. According to initial reports, the gunmen opened fire on students and have taken dozens of them as hostages. Some students managed to escape the school compound, the local news media reported.
This is the same Taliban that Team Obama would like to negotiate with. I wonder how Liberals will spin this event to blame America?
On the bright side, the lunatics at Vox think it’s bigoted and Islamophobic to ask Muslims to condemn Islamic terrorism, in relation to the Sydney attack.
It is time for that ritual to end: non-Muslims in all countries, and today especially those in Australia, should finally take on the correct assumption that Muslims hate terrorism just as much as they do, and cease expecting Muslims to prove their innocence just because of their faith.
Do they?
“…hardcore Islamists have been doing what they do: kill people in gruesome ways.”
Teach, get with the program. Those thousands of jihadis killing people in the name of their god are just lone wolves – not islamic terrorists.
Anti abortion check

Climate change deniers check. ( they believe that global warming is just a plot to stop Allah ‘a fossil fuel gifts to Islam from being sold )
Want government to be based in religion check
Hate lefties and progressives check
Objectify women. Check
Teach am I posting about you ? Or the Taliban?
Oh and followed Bin Ladin ‘a plan to the letter and invaded Muslim countries
Knowing that a destabilized mid east would make it easier for them to take power
Anyone else find it interesting that John decides to attack me and Conservatives, rather than denounce the Taliban?
Actually, what is interesting Mr. Teach is your insinuation that it’s silly to decry the U.S. government’s use of torture because the Taliban is worse.
That’s quite a benchmark you’re using.
Wow. The folks on the left just cannot bring themselves to admit that these terrorists are killing innocents in the name of Allah, and that this constitutes torture and terror.
When it comes to animals like these, I absolutely do believe in torture if it will stop. or at least give us information that will stop them from repeating the murdering sprees.
frank,
The fact is that the US and all other countries have consistently used torture and will continue to do so despite the heart felt pleas of the idiot liberals. If you don’t believe this, then read a little history, in books, remember those? Also, there are books that are used at the war colleges that have tried and true methods for combating terrorist and others that threaten us. These techniques call for torture for no other reason that to be the baddest person in town and let the other guys know that. Guess what? It works every time. Now, my wife and I have children that are in harms way due to the actions of these nut job Muslims. We have made a pledge. If something happens to one of our children, then we will take the battle to our local Muslims. Period.
John- You forgot “Culture and intelligence still based in the 7th century- check”. Am I talking about you, or liberals, or the Taliban? Answer- Yes
Why don’t we just blame the perpetrators of this heinous act? Not just the killers were Muslim – so were the victims.
The Pakistanis should hunt them down and administer justice.
“We are undeterred. … We will not back off,” Pakistan Defense Minister Khawaja Asif told CNN.
“Even the children are dying on the frontline in the war against terror,” he said. “The smaller the coffin, the heavier it is to carry. … It’s a very, very tragic day.”
The US should assist in every way possible.
This has nothing to do with the US torture programs. President Obama didn’t do it, the Taliban did.
Oh, I do, I do.
