You can follow the links to the other two parts of this video. Listen to the leftist guests and audience (aside from a couple of exceptions) imply, ever-so-subtly, that America deserved the attacks of 9/11. Furthermore, listen to pre-emptive condemnations from the leftist filth of America's inevitable acts of self-defence. Then listen to some Muslims and leftists in the audience blame the attacks on "Palestine" and the enforcement of the no-fly-zone over pre-2003 Iraq.

They didn't "deserve it", but they sure as hell were asking for it. If you kick a hornet's nest then don't be so shocked if you get stung.

I liked the video (only watched half of it). What happened to such rational thinking in the UK afterwards?

Then why, oh why, do we have to let those "hornets" move into the West, while we can't go anywhere near the "hornet's nest"?

What? You're assuming, again, that all people from a given region, of a given race, or of a given religion are homogeneously bad. Why?

[bush_cheney2004]

If America "asked for it", then that (or any) region of the world "deserves" whatever America does in response.

Not sure which of you folks have the will to watch all three parts, but I posted it because we're still hearing the same despicable rhetoric from the left with all of its clear insinuations. I also have good reason to believe that this audience isn't exactly atypical of the broader UK population. The audience was largely leftist with the inextricable anti-Americanism that comes with such ideological leanings: sort of a package deal we've seen for many decades, now. It's also worth noting that the only audience members that expressed solidarity with America and rejected the left's attempts to draw moral equivalence between America and Muslim-majority countries (or, some even seemed to imply a moral superiority on the side of Mohammedan societies) were white.

There is certainly a racial/ethnic component to political orientation in the West with respect to absurd leftism/reflexive anti-Americanism (I know this is obvious). It should be no secret by now that Muslims in the West almost exclusively harbour animosity towards America based on the false political/historical narratives that they subscribe to (fantasies of "American imperialism", Israel is the "biggest terrorist", Islam is a religion of peace, the Middle East would be a paradise if only it weren't for America/Israel, etc). Although to a lesser degree than Muslims, blacks are also much more likely to advance these same false narratives. these anti-Western enemies within are obviously much bolder and outspoken in places like the UK than in the USA. Canada's not far behind, though, we can see this same sick narrative in all aspects of Canadian society: in the media, in universities, in our politics, and certainly among ordinary folks around the dinner table.

He didn't say that.

That's why you don't kick a hornet's nest, you destroy it. In the third video there's some myopic and ignorant twenty-something blonde kid, the useful idiot for the enemy, pleading for "dialogue" to address the "roots" relevant to terrorism: poverty and racism. The arrogance of the left in thinking that they can charm their way into civilizing Muslim-majority countries and bring them from the dark ages into modernity never ceases to amaze me. Contrary to his idea of how to fight terrorism, there's really only one way to do it effectively: smash them over an anvil until there's nothing left.

Smash and destroy who? The Muslim radicals, or all Muslims?

Sort of like what the Hebrews were supposed to do to the Amalkites and Jebusites and failed to do? I'm not yet convinced.

This is the same kind of rhetoric you vocally denounce from your "enemies".

Of course it is. Bob is always good for fabulously entertaining irony. Sounds like he's supporting the idea of a holocaust of Arabs/Muslims or whomever he sees as his enemy over there.

Who are "they"? And how to you propose you do the smashing. Stop being such a pussy and stop hiding behind these empty phrases you like to cling to like a dog worrying a bone and say what it is you really mean.

If he said what he felt could get banned. Hard to blame the fascist-zionist. If he does live in Israel, i'm kind of glad he's there and not in Canada. As dangerous as any hate-preaching Christian or Muslim.
