Radio talk-show host Michael Graham was suspended by station WMAL-AM yesterday for repeatedly describing Islam as a “terrorist organization” on his program.
Graham said he has been ordered off the Washington station, without pay, for an indefinite period while the station investigates the comments that drew complaints from a Muslim group, the Washington-based Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR). [continue]

I am a little confused why it takes so long to ‘investigates the comments’. Do they not have the tape recording of his entire program? How long does it take to listen to it?
Here is a bit of him defending himself.

“If the Boy Scouts of America had 1,000 Scout troops, and 10 of them practiced suicide bombings, then the BSA would be considered a terrorist organization. If the BSA refused to kick out those 10 troops, that would make the case even stronger. If people defending terror repeatedly turned to the Boy Scout handbook and found language that justified and defended murder –and the scoutmasters responded by saying ‘Could be’ — the Boy Scouts would have been driven out of America long ago.
Today, Islam has whole sects and huge mosques that preach terror. Its theology is openly used to give the murderers their motives. Millions of its members give these killers comfort. The question isn’t how dare I call Islam a terrorist organization, but rather why more people do not.”

Calling Islam ‘a terrorist organization’ definitely isn’t the politically correct thing to say, but I think people miss the larger point.
The Islamic terrorists make up only a small portion of modern day Islam. What Michael Graham is asking is, why isn’t Islam taking care of this on there own? Why are there not Muslims on TV everyday denouncing what the terrorists are doing?
The simple answer is the majority of Muslim leaders that have power, do not have any personal interest in stopping them. So the war goes on against Islamofascists, with it being viewed as the ‘Christians/Jews’ vs. Islam, which it is not. Only when mainstream Muslims take back their religion from these radicals will the war on terror end. Unfortunately I don’t see that happening anytime soon.

What Michael Graham said was over the top, but I do not think he was being literal in the sense saying all Muslims are terrorists. It just appears the majority of the Muslim community is indifferent to the terrorists.
I really have nothing against the religion of Islam or any other religion. I would just like to see people not fly planes into buildings or blow up buses and subways.
I don’t think Michael Graham should be suspended for what he said. But if enough advertisers bail and ratings slip enough, from a business standpoint it would be silly for WMAL not to move in a different direction.

Terrorists Attack in London

I hope this refocuses the attention back on the war on terror.
I also hope this puts aside some of the political fallout that has happened with Germany and France being against the Iraq war.

“We continue to warn the governments of Denmark and Italy and all crusader
governments that they will receive the same punishment if they do not
withdraw their troops from Iraq and Afghanistan.”

As of right now 50 dead and around 700 injured in London. Whatever England wants to do, wherever they want to go to take of the terrorists, they have my support.

We have been at war with terrorists since at least the 80s. We just didn’t do anything about it until 2001. What we have to realize is that they are will not just go away. We can not just ignore them and there is no amount retreating we can do to make them stop attacking us.
The terrorist have to be dealt with, this includes the money funding the terrorist.
So let us not forget that Iran is where most of the funding comes from.
