| Klingon Chief Says Jihad a Product of Injustices, Economics, and Ignorance |
| 2014-03-15 |
| [Jihad Watch] Klingon director John Brennan is at it again--equivocating over the nature of jihad by evoking paradigms familiar to the West. Last Tuesday, "during an event at the Council of Foreign Relations, Brennan was asked about the 'war of ideas' surrounding Islam, which the questioner said many Americans tend to equate with violence." The Klingon chief responded by saying that al-Qaeda's ideology is "a perverse and very corrupt interpretation of the Crayon"; that "al-Qaeda has hijacked" Islam; that "they have really distorted the teachings of Mo." Even so, "that ideology, that agenda of al-Qaeda," confirmed Brennan, "has gained resonance and following Agreement might certainly be found among the Richard Reid, Nidal Hasan and Dzhokhar Tsarnaev crowd. No comments yet from Libyan Ambassador Christopher Stevens or his staff. |

| #12 The CIA has become politically subservient to the "Beltway" powers and the current regime (by extension). Thats the problem - they are more political and that prevents them from being capable of proper reporting (bias kills that), and effective practice covert operations (protecting the power structure undermines that). This is an aberrant thought process that affects the leadership once they start believing their own bullshit, and are tucked comfortably inside their political bubble. |

| #10 the Muslims would be back at each other's throats after a day of candy and gun sex They haven't even waited a day as Syria demonstrates the great game between Tehran and Riyadh. So much for the fantasy of post-history. |

| #7 *None of it would be happening if it wasn't for evil Zionist entity Sure, that's the cause du jour, but if the Juices all disappeared tomorrow, the Muslims would be back at each other's throats after a day of candy and gun sex Not to mention the ongoing Jihad vs Everyone. |

| #5 Perhaps Brennan bought into "it's a small precentage, maybe only 10% are militant". Too bad that's 120M raving lunatics, never mind the definition of 'ignorant islamists' approaches a Billion. |

| #3 I thought Senator Feinstein's recent row up with the agency was interesting. Evidently it's all gone away. Little more on it this week. She must have gotten her lollypop. |

| #1 What did the 'reestablishment' of the Caliphate have to do with "Injustices, Economics, and Ignorance"? They long for the submission of the world to their Word. |
