It has been widely reported that the terrorist who ran over people with a truck yesterday afternoon shouted “Allahu Akbar<\/a>!” I think that might be an indication of what his motives were.<\/p>\n

Newsbusters<\/a> posted a story today illustrating how some of the media chooses to overlook the obvious.<\/p>\n

The article reports:<\/p>\n

Just hours after news broke that a radical inspired by ISIS<\/a> drove into a bikepath, killing eight people and injuring over a dozen others, MSNBC<\/a> was already out deflecting blame from the radical religious ideology behind the attack. The network\u2019s terrorism analyst, Malcolm Nance<\/a>, defended Islam<\/a>, saying it wasn\u2019t responsible for Tuesday\u2019s terror attack<\/a>. He even brought Christianity into the mix, saying that sometimes Christians<\/a> were responsible for terror.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

\u00a0Hardball <\/em>host Chris Matthews brought Nance into the conversation on Tuesday night’s program, asking him about the trend of terrorists using vehicles to go on their violent rampages. Nance responded that it was nothing new, and had been employed by terrorists in Israel<\/a> dozens of times already.<\/strong><\/p>\n

I’m sorry, Mr. Nance, I don’t remember the last time Christians were responsible for terror. I know sometimes Christianity has been blamed for terror, but there is nothing in the Bible that condones terror. The Quran<\/a>, on the other hand, has many verses that encourage the killing of infidels.<\/p>\n

Mr. Nance then stated:<\/p>\n

A few minutes later, the counter-terrorism expert again defended Islam and accused Christians of becoming radicalized terrorists as well:<\/strong><\/p>\n

I have been in the house of Osama Bin Laden<\/a> in Jalalabad. I have seen the power of how he corrupted Islam and gotten an entire of multiple generations to follow what he believed. ISIS is just the fifth generation of that corrupt ideology. <\/em><\/strong>But then when you get down to the street level, you have these former petty criminals, these guys who were really sort of losers in their own society. Even Christians, we have seen Catholics in Canada who converted to quote on quote, Islam and carried out acts of terror. <\/em>You see them do this and what you really see is a person who either has a mental defect or who has some loss or vacuum in their world, and they decide ISIS or Al-Qaeda ideology and those acts will validate them once and for all in their life.<\/strong><\/p>\n

It wasn’t their Catholic theology that encouraged them to become terrorists–it was the Islamic theology they converted to. Jihad, waging war on infidels, is part of Quranic Islam. We ignore that fact at our own risk.<\/p>\n

The so-called counter-terrorism expect is lying. He is lulling Americans into a false sense of security by saying that Islam is not responsible for yesterday’s terrorist attack. It is time to begin to look at what is being taught in America’s mosques. Constitutionally we cannot interfere with anyone’s freedom of religion, but when that freedom becomes a vehicle to encourage terrorism, we need to know who is involved and what they are preaching.<\/p>\n
