A Broken Moral Compass, Not Jobs, Is the Issue
Dennis Prager: “Normative Islam demands theocracy. Does the president not know that? Does he not know that 91 percent of Iraqis and 89 percent of Palestinians believe that Sharia should be the law of the country? That 29 percent of Egyptians believe that suicide bombings are justified? That the majority of Muslim-majority countries have blasphemy and/or apostasy laws? And if he did, would he say they are all perverting Islam? … What Christians, Jews, Buddhists or Hindus are ‘killing innocents in the name of God?’ And what religion other than Islam has scriptures that exhort its followers to slay unbelievers? … The reason Muslims gravitate toward violence is a broken moral compass, not a lack of education or jobs. … Never before in American history has an American president denied the existence of the greatest evil of his day. That should make everyone – except the Islamist terrorists he won’t name – very uneasy.”
