Ummm...aren't we in a war against these people?

Here as a truly disturbing article talking about how our own justice department is co-sponsoring a convention being held by the Islamic Society of North America. You can read it here

Oh sure, people can tell me "But Bo, this is just an Islamic group...we aren't in a war against Muslims, just terrorists". Well if you read the article, this group is "an unindicted co-conspirator in an ongoing federal terrorist funding case". So why in the hell would our justice department have anything to do with this??? This question gets answered by Mrs. Lorenzo-Giguere when she states "This is an important outreach opportunity, and a chance to reach a community that is at once very much discriminated against, and very wary of the national government and its willingness to protect them".

Now I feel bad. I had no idea this community lived in such fear. Maybe it would be a good idea for all of us to show support and compassion for those who want to cut the heads off infidels, blow up innocent people all because they don't believe the crap that the followers of such a "peaceful religion" do, and strive for the day when Islam rules the entire world. I can't believe how insensitive my grandparents were when they didn't offer to reach out to the Japanese and Germans during World War II. Maybe it would have put a quicker end to the war. Now we have a chance to learn from history. We can reach out to those who want to kill and oppress us, and in doing so learn to co-exist peacefully. And to think our own government is doing this just fills me with warm fuzzies. If only I wasn't such an intolerant hate-monger!

Until our government will wake up and truly understand the nature and ways of our enemy, we are in big trouble. From everything I've been learning about jihad...our enemy has no problem waiting for generations before launching an attack. So just because we haven't been hit since 9/11 doesn't mean that we are winning...it just means our government will become more complacent. This news story makes me sick and once again shows we have no leaders with a clue as to what's going on.
