Journolister and Washington Post writer Ezra Klein is another one of those liberals in the elite Old Media trying to pretend that there is no Islam in terrorism these days. He’s also another one of those who, in the face of reality, hyperbolically say that Christians are somehow just as prone to terrorism as Muslims. If only he could find any of that terrorism, he might have some veracity on the issue.
Oh, Klein is desperately trying to find that Christian terrorism no matter how wild a stretch it is, sure enough. Like President Obama and his Deputy Natio
On MSNBCs Morning Joe for March 7, Klein tied himself into knots of illogic in order to absolve radical Islam for the thousands of acts of terrorism perpetrated over the last 50 or so years.
In his conversation with a perplexed Pat Buchannan on the MSNBC morning show, Klein insisted that “young Christians” are just as apt to perpetrate terrorism because they have been involved in “school shootings.”
In response to Buchanan’s point that the Muslim community in the US is “particularly vulnerable” to radicalization, Klein said, “there’s not a ton of evidence, though, that was a radicalization of American community. We’ve had spree shooters in America, Pat…. We’ve had school shootings from young Christians.”

I just completed reading a transcript of a your dialog with Mr. Scarborogh and Buchanan, and I must say your continual insistence on smearing Christians for equivalent radicalization to Muslims is annoying, but more to the point totally inverting the causes for what you call Christian terrorism.
All Muslims, when committing terror attacks like f.i. Major Hassan killing 13, wounding 41 or the most recent attack on the military in Frankfurt, Germany, killing two and wounding two, are doing this in the name of Islam, as both were yelling Allahu Akbar, Allah is greater.
Contrast this with any attacks by what you call radical Christians. None of these attacks were committed by religious people, except maybe the one by the killer of abortionist Tiller, which all major religions in America condemned.
Contrast this with mass killings by what you perversely call Christians, which almost always are committed by non religious people.
Certainly not even you can reason that the youths that committed the often exemplarized atrocities in the Columbine school killing were religion driven, but by some daemonic reason that is not part of any main stream religion.
It is Islam that promises 72 virgins in the afterlife to every man who dies in the effort to establish the world wide Umma or Califate. Christianity tells us that taking a life is a deadly sin, punishable with eternal damnation, (except in officially sanctioned, per Geneva Convention, conflicts between nations0.
Yet you continue to associate any crime by any white American with Christianity.
You are a typical closed minded agnostic liberal that has completely lost all credibility with thinking people and all connection to reality.
This is what James McPherson considers good journalism by the print media! Klein is nothing more than your typical far left leaning liberal clown.
Sorry Ezra,
Most school shootings have been performed by atheist/agnostic types. It seems that I live in the
land of some recent school shootings and in each case it was liberal/agnostic/anarchists.
I know, some can play with the semantics of liberal and anarchist, which seem to be conflicting,
but yet, most anarchist almost always back liberals as far as vote casting.
We even had a church shooting and somebody out west may claim they know more than we
in town do, but that kid did have a Christian upbringing and wanted to participate more in the
mission, but he turned away over a small rejection and joined the dark side.
Ezra Klein is just your average journalist. He doesn't know shit from shineola, but likes to talk so he can hear his head rattle.
Make nice Ezra while Rome burns.
EZRA KLOWN IS A BLIND , IGNORANT FOOL TO NOT BE AWARE OF THE GOAL OF ISLAM TO

HAVE DECIDED TO CODDLE THOSE WHO BROUGHT US THE DESTRUCTION OF PROPERTY AND
LIVES AT WORLD TRADE CENTER , U.S. COLE , AMERICAN BARACKS IN SAUDI ARABIA AND
SEVERAL AMERICAN EMBASSY BUILDINGS . SINCE 9/11/2001 THERE HAVE BEEN MORE THAN
20,000 TERROR ATTACKS BY MUSLIMS , AZND THEY SHOULD ALL BE DEPORTED OUT OF
AMERICA , EVEN IF THEY WERE BORN HERE . YOU NEVER KNOW WHICH ONE OF THEM WILL

"THEY SHOULD ALL BE DEPORTED OUT OF AMERICA , EVEN IF THEY WERE BORN HERE . YOU NEVER KNOW WHICH ONE OF THEM WILL ATTACK US NEXT . "
Aside from the obvious unconstitutionality of such an action, how do we tell who "they" are? Uust the few million who identify themselves as Muslim? And surely no one would lie if such a plan were implemented, right?
Can you tell that my Christian friend born in the Middle East isn't a Muslim? Many Arabs aren't Muslims, and many Muslims aren't Arabic–many are African American. So many we should just deport all the brown and black people, to be on the safe side? Oh, damn–some Muslims are white. I guess we'll just have to deport everybody!
One advantage to deporting Muslims–since 80 percent of them voted for George W. Bush, it would decrease the odds of having another Republican president. (Talat Othman opened the Republican National Convention with a Muslim benediction, marking the first time a Muslim had addressed a major US political gathering.)
Of course since it's mostly conservatives who demonize Muslims, more of them vote Democratic with each election. Keep up the good work!

Take the whole ARMOR of GOD, that you may be able to withstand…Stand, having your loins girt about with TRUTH, having the BREASTPLATE of RIGHTEOUSNESS, your feet shod with PREPERATION of PEACE. Above all take the SHIELD of FAITH; therefore you will be able to Quench all the Fiery Darts of the Wicked. And take the HELMET of SALVATION, and the SWORD of THE SPIRIT, which is the WORD of GOD: PRAYING ALWAYS with ALL PRAYER and SUPPLICATION of the SPIRIT, and WATCHING with PERSEVERANCE and SUPPLICATION for ALL the SAINTS.

And there you have it: the summation of a Christian (terrorist?)!!!

THis is PC run amok- let's call a spade a spade (oops- can't say that..) and tell the truth. Ezra, time to put on your big boy pants and admit that radicalization from abroad is infecting the minds of Muslims
in this county, leading to events like FT Hood, Times Square, etc.. The Koran promotes genocide and
murder in the name of Allah and the establishment of a Caliphate – end of story, no ifs, ands or buts.
This is not rocket science, Ezra , just pure and simple common sense, that your pea brain should be able to comprehend on a good day..
