US: Welcoming the Grand Mufti
Joe Kaufman has a new article in Frontpage Magazine about the visit to the U.S. of Ikrima Sa'id Sabri, the Grand Mufti of Jerusalem. I want to comment on a point raised by Mr. Kaufman:
By allowing sadistic hatemongers, such as Ikrima Sabri, into the country, the United States sends a mixed message to the world. It says that, while the nation is engaged in a far-reaching war on terror, it will tolerate those that spread the violent ideologies which ignite the enemy. This includes the terrorist support network within our borders. In the Denver event alone, over 400 people attended, standing room only.
The message the United States sends is that you can preach the destruction of our way of life, you can work toward the enslavement of our children, you can work to destroy our liberty, as long as you cloak it as part of your religious freedom. This is an unacceptably broad definition of tolerance when it comes to Islam, and it must change if the West is to survive this century.
That's enough of me; read Mr. Kaufman's article here.
