The mainstream media continue to suppress the “Islam” in Islamic terrorism.

By Andrew C. McCarthy

Over the weekend, Canadian authorities apparently smashed a frightening plot involving Islamic terrorists who planned a series of bombings against sites in southern Ontario. Instinctively, the mainstream media went into its now-familiar coverage template, Phase One of which avoids like the plague any mention of the fact that accused terrorists are Muslims.

As Cliff May and I noted here on NRO, and Roger Simon detailed on his website, readers of the New York Times were told that the 17 men arrested “represent the broad strata of our society … Some are students, some are employed, some are unemployed.” In point of fact, however, they represent a very narrow stratum of Canadian society: They are Muslims, many of whom attend the same mosque, the Al-Rahman Islamic Centre for Islamic Education in the Toronto suburb of Mississauga.

Not only were all those arrested Muslims. The reported evidence against them fits to a tee the shopworn pattern of Islamic terrorism repeated for much of the last two decades. Young men were radicalized at the local mosque and its companion school by elders preaching from the Koran. They participated in paramilitary training in rural outposts. The training involved firearms and communications equipment. The plotters may have conducted surveillance on specific targets. And they ordered prodigious amounts of explosives components—in this case, tons of fertilizer in preparation for the construction of crude but deadly effective ANFO (ammonium nitrate and fuel oil) bombs.

Yes as I posted in an earlier post today the media and other Islamic apologists are conspicuous by not making an issue out of the cult of Islam in these latest arrests. So why is the media and many others silent about this issue? There are two (2) reasons; fear & compliance.

(1) The media is afraid of Islam and Islamic terrorists. The media fears attacks on their assets and reporters. They also fear that they will be accused of some sort of racial profiling or some such politically correct nonsense. (BTW, Islam is not a race, nit-wits of all the earth's races belong to Islam)

(2) Compliance with Islam is a Western trait. Many people in the West feel guilty over some slight the West may or may not have committed against Islam is the far past or the recent past. The compliant people feel the need to understand Islam and have dialogs with Islam. (You don't talk to mad-dogs you destroy them, post haste!)

I'll tell you right up front the West with the media and the compliant people leading the way is digging the grave for 8,000 years of Western cultural and tradition. Islam is the enemy and has been the enemy since a foaming at the mouth misogynist invented Islam around the 7th century CE. As long as Islam is given a free pass by the media and the compliant types we are losing the WOT and selling the birthright of millions of as yet unborn Westerners into the slavery that is Islam in practice.
