If You’re Anti-Jihad and White, That Makes You a Racist?

These are the academic motions and machinations of a nation preparing itself (particularly its young people) for suicide.

If you have the stomach, take a few minutes to watch the following video spreading around the Internet via Facebook.

If you don’t have the stomach, I’ll summarize it for you.

A classroom situation is dramatized by the video in which American students ask reasonable questions of their pro-Islamic teacher, along with their pro-Jihadist, sanctimonious classmate (the college-level equivalent of the teacher’s pet.)

The video, as the title implies, is obviously propaganda to undermine the pro-Western, pro-American side with respect to the continuing threat of Islamic terrorism.

It’s filled with excuse-making attitudes and slogans in defense of Islamic abuses, the worst of which you’ll find at the end. A female student asks the pro-Jihad teacher’s pet, “If Muslims like you feel that way, then why don’t you get out of our country?” He replies, “We will. As soon as you promise to get out of ours.”

Psychologically, this disgusting video plays to unearned guilt. It’s designed to foster an intellectual helplessness in young minds particularly (hence the undergraduate classroom setting).

Just as mental or emotional abusers know their target audience (usually young children), intellectual abusers of the kind who endorse Jihad terrorism as a means of countering American “aggression” know that adolescents and young adults are the best minds in which to foster self-doubt.

Incredibly, the title of the video is, “Racist white girl gets owned.” Are you kidding me? It’s not anyone asking, “Why don’t you just get out of our country if you hate it so much?” who’s racist. It’s a perfectly legitimate question. I’m sure no American woman in her right mind would ever move to Iran, don a face-covering veil and surrender all of her individual rights and choices to a fanatically totalitarian religious dictatorship run by sexually predatory men. She would do everything in her power to get the hell out of there. Why can’t the sneering pro-Jihad teacher’s pet in the video, who obviously hates the Western civilization of the United States, simply go to the land he finds superior and live out his life there?

The answer that’s supposed to stump everyone is where the video leaves off: “We will. As soon as you promise to get out of ours.”

Wow…how many evasions can you count in that statement?

Islamists Give me a break! Their countries are rat-infested slums compared to our advanced civilization. If they really loved their own countries and wanted to stay there, they’d be focusing on defending them from home against the alleged aggression of Westerners.

He’s counting on us to ignore the fact that the open intention of “Jihad” is to destroy all things Western, i.e. non-Muslim. They’re not in protective mode, but in all-out destroy mode. Jihad is playing offense, not defense. Its scope is long-range and even permanent, not merely retaliatory. This isn’t opinion, but plainly visible from all their words and actions over the years (9/11 the most dramatic).

The reader who sent me this video described it as exactly what he experienced when doing coursework at New York University.

These are the academic motions and machinations of a nation preparing itself (particularly its young people) for suicide.

Of course the United States has “oil interests” in the Middle East. This is mostly the fault of the United States. We refuse to build additional pipelines, we refuse to drill anywhere in or near Alaska or the ocean, and so of course gas prices have gone up and we’re more dependent on oil from the Middle East than ever before. If the anti-American teacher’s pet wishes to blame anything on America (or the 55 percent or so who support these policies), then this is the place to start.

But does anyone seriously believe that if the United States reversed course and began to drill for oil outside of the Middle East, that the pro-Jihad forces would quietly go home and leave us alone? Not on your life.

For decades now, Iran and the other forces of Jihad have referred to America as “The Great Satan.” America is not satanic, in their eyes, because its private companies wish to drill for oil. America is satanic because, due to its largely Westernized and secularized values of prosperity and happiness in life on earth, it represents the ultimate insult to supernaturalist, poverty-embracing Islam.

I don’t understand what racism has to do with any of this. Racism refers to elevating skin color to the most important factor in human relations. Race is not the primary factor in the Jihadist war against Western civilization. The issue is a secular and liberty-loving life on earth, based on material advancement and progress, versus blind subservience to a totalitarian and utterly sexist/racist religious dictatorship.

Freedom and Westernism are potentially valuable to all comers of all races. The questions asked by the white college students in this video could just as easily be asked by any student or person of any race. We don’t think with our genetic make-up; we think with our minds. Race has nothing whatsoever to do with our ideological or psychological conclusions.

The present world crisis is not “Arab versus white” or anything like that. It’s about those who cherish and want freedom versus those who do not.

Don’t let any idiot video-maker ever let you believe otherwise.
