Raging Rudy Giuliani Destroys Obama's Policies on Islam

I know it's not the popular thing to say among atheists, but Sam Harris is a bigoted idiot too. Talking repeatedly out of his ass from his ivory tower, thereby being in support of torture under certain circumstances. He recently doubled down on that statement in an interview he had with Cenk Uygur from the Young Turks. I sat through the whole uncut three hours in hopes he would prove my opinion of him wrong. He didn't.

Obviously you never read the bible, since it's not different from the Quran when it comes to asking for violence. Which is hardly surprising, since both books and religions share the same roots. The question is not what's written in the texts, it's what people make of it. And just as there are moderate christians, who don't follow the letter, there are muslims, who go through the motions without giving it much thought.

Right now, ISIS has about 30.000 active followers - and that's taking the most generous estimates by serious experts. Following the advice of rightwing knuckleheads like Giuliani and consorts amounts to conducting a recruiting campaign for extremists. With every civilian killed by bombs or ground interventions, the number of possible enemies rises because it's human to ask for revenge when a loved one violently perishes.

I've had it up to my eyes with armchair farters demanding action without having the first clue of the implications.
