Message: Entry: Cheney Converts to Islam Link: http://www.takimag.com/site/article/cheney_converts_to_islam#383 Post contents: I wonder if somone posted a piece about President Bush converting to a extremist sect of Judaism and saying he was praying at the Wall... facing Wall Street, how many of you would call it anti-Semetic? Jews are well represented in the mainstream media, so if anything anti-Semetic appears, at least they have an opportunity to respond and refute it. But how many Muslims have a chance to respond to and refute anything anti-Islamic in the mainstream media? Eric Kenning's column is a reflection of the political left, religious moderates and libertarian point of view, on the war on terror. They like to blame U.S. foreign policy on fundamentalist Christianity and Islam. But all of us egardless of religious and political beliefs are responsible for what our government has done. During the Vietnam War, the U.S. is responsible for the deaths of 3 to 5 million and people on the left don't even acknowldge these deaths. Blaming everything on religion is an easy way out for those who live in democracies, but have done nothing to change their governments' policies. Sent at: 2008 12 01
