Obama justifies ISIS barbarism - refers to Crusades and Inquisition canards

Sometimes you read something and are left to gasp if it was truly said.

"Unless we get on our high horse and think this is unique to some other place, remember that during the Crusades and the Inquisition, people committed terrible deeds in the name of Christ," Obama said Wednesday. "And in our home country, slavery, and Jim Crow, all too often was justified in the name of Christ." Barack Hussein Obama.

Yes, he really did say that. Today. At the National Prayer Breakfast.

Do I have to shout it out Obama?

The Crusades were to free Christians from Muslim persecution. As for that old canard about the Inquisition, this Muslim Brotherhood sympathiser in the White House has proven by these two statements that he is manipulative, lying, deceitful and anti-Christian. 

The Inquisition was defensive against the Moors and heretics to a united Christian Europe. In five hundred years there are no more than 5000 executions that could have been due to the various Inquisitions. 

You wish to draw a moral equivalence?

Clearly, with Barack Hussein Obama, a little knowledge is a dangerous thing. To have the absolute temerity to equate ISIS savagery with whatever excesses occurred centuries and millennia ago is evil and disgusting. Is he justifying the beheadings of children and innocents and the burying alive of people, the murder, the burning alive of a trapped man in a cage?

Tantumblogo provides a solid take on it at Dallas Area Catholics.

Meanwhile ... this is the man he wants "removed" and the people of this same land he wants slaughtered under a lie that Basser Al-Assad is persecuting his people and needs to be overthrown by America. Assad is shown here with his wife Asma during a visit to the Saint Takla Monastery in Maloula in 2014, before it was destroyed by Islamists funded by Barack Obama and urged on by John McCain. 

This is the man, President Sisi of Egypt, who showed up at Christmas Mass in the Coptic Cathedral in Cairo - the first time in modern Egyptian history that a President of Egypt has not only wished his beautiful lands Christians a Blessed Christmas but actually went into a Coptic Church to cheers and tears of joy by the people. He has vowed to rebuild churches destroyed by the Islamists under the Obama supported Muslim Brotherhood takeover!

A priest, Father Polous Yacoub has been beheaded in Mosul. Where is the outrage from this Obama?

Has America gone insane?

Do you have any idea what is coming upon you and the rest of us because of this man, Obama? 

Barack Hussein Obama has to be called out as an enemy of Catholics and Christians everywhere. 

He is an enemy to America and a danger to the security of our lands.

God help us.

Obama revealed his true colors at Prayer Breakfast, and true ignorance of history

Written by Allen West on February 6, 2015

There is grave danger in statements supporting moral equivalency and religious relativism. What happens is horrific behavior is excused because you have a certain recalcitrance in admitting the existence of evil.

President Barack Obama had the chance to affirm our Judeo-Christian faith heritage at the National Prayer Breakfast just days after the world was exposed to the savage and barbaric actions of ISIS in the burning to death of the captured Jordanian fighter pilot. But he did not.

As we reported yesterday, instead the Islamapologist-in-Chief attempted to find moral equivalency between the brutality of ISIS and Christianity, saying that violence rooted in religion isn’t exclusive to Islam, but has been carried out by Christians as well.

“Unless we get on our high horse and think this is unique to some other place, remember that during the Crusades and the Inquisition, people committed terrible deeds in the name of Christ,” Obama said. “In our home country, slavery and Jim Crow all too often was justified in the name of Christ.”

Obama also denounced Islamic State terrorists for professing to stand up for Islam when they were actually “betraying it.” “We see ISIL, a brutal vicious death cult that in the name of religion carries out unspeakable acts of barbarism,” he said criticizing them for “claiming the mantle of religious authority for such actions.”

Now, being a simple student of history, I’d like to share a simple analysis — and please, I ask all the Islamapologists reading this to sit down and take a deep breath.

First of all, Pope Urban II called for the Crusade in response to Muslim brigands and raiders who were attacking Christian pilgrims in the Holy Land. I find it rather odd that Obama would refer to something that is over 900 years old in order to make a statement of relativism. The sad truth is that no one is running around in Knights Templar white robes declaring “God wills it.” However, the same enemy that Pope Urban II saw as a threat exists to today and still declares, “Allahu Akhbar.”

As for the Spanish Inquisition, consider that this came after the expulsion of Muslim domination on the Iberian Peninsula for some 700 years.

As a matter of fact, Islamists still refer to Spain as “Al Andalusia” which means to this day still consider it Muslim land — after all it was part of their caliphate conquest. Good thing ol’ Charles “The Hammer” Martel turned back an invading Muslim Army in 732 AD at the Battle of Tours — just as was done by the Venetian fleet at Lepanto in 1571 — just as done by the heroic European Knights at Vienna in 1683. Yes, the Inquisition was horrible and severely affected the Jewish population in Spain. It was however, an overreaction to ensure that Catholicism reigned superior and was never again subjugated as it had been under the Moors of North Africa.

You see religious relativism in this case dismisses the actions of ISIS who is actually more closely following the exploits of Mohammad.

If you study history and begin at the Medina phase, approximately 622 AD, you’ll find a murderous warlord who used terror and “religious manipulation” as he led almost 25 combat raids, the first being the Nakhla raid, circa 622 AD. This all came after the “peaceful” first phase of Islam, just 12 years in length.

The world has been exposed to the brutality of militant Islam for some 1400 years – a theocratic-political totalitarian ideology that spread by way of the sword, not peaceful proselytization. Hence why the flag of Saudi Arabia has a koranic verse above the sword of Mohammad.

And if you understand the Koran and the hadiths you’ll find the history laid out here corresponds to a shift in the verses and traditions towards violence — which the latter verse under the premise of “nakeesh” (abrogation) supersede the previous “peaceful” verses — yet all are still held in equal regard as the words of Allah as revealed to Muhammad.

Lastly, as we shared yesterday, Obama should be careful in equivocating slavery and Jim Crow to the actions of ISIS — after all it was those righteous Democrat Christians who supported such heinous actions as lynchings.

I have a simple recommendation for President Obama — don’t attend any more National Prayer Breakfasts. The angst created by these ill-conceived words is just not worth it — better to just not be there, than to be there and call into question your loyalties to the Judeo-Christian faith heritage of America.

Obama once again attempted to lecture us and failed miserably. ISIS is Islamic, they are militant Islamists and they represent an evil that came from a man who went rogue and used a religious belief as a means to an end — power. Now, that should have been the crux of Obama’s comments, but I suppose those “undisclosed” Muslim leaders with whom he met had a different idea.

Mr. President, true, you are not running again, and true, you did win twice. But even truer, you are damning your reputation as a president and may never hold any regard or esteem of the American people. Then again, perhaps that was always your aim, as you fundamentally transform our beloved Constitutional Republic.
