Banning the act of Banning
2008-07-26


Congressman Peter Hoekstra from Michigan has recently introduced legislation that would ban the banning by the Government of the use of various terms describing Islamic jihadists who want to wage holy war against us. The Administration has decided using such terms by Government officials somehow “rewards” jihadists and offends regular, moderate Muslims. This topic has been covered by the CTB fairly extensively.

Now the usual cast of jihadist apologists are deriding Congressman Hoekstra for his efforts in trying to stop what many believe is the Government’s PC nonsense...better to call terrorists who themselves declare their violent, murderous actions Islamic inspired jihad mere criminals. Is this argument really rather silly, or could there be something more at stake?

#1  Congress would like to apologize for the previous statement. The person responsible for the banning has been banned.
