Islamophobic Freak Show

Note, my last comments were on the first link.

I am not a fan of Hannity, but I did go on to watch this video

 (I did watch the whole thing but would say it is only worth watching up to the 23 minute mark)
These were my observations:

Is there any such thing as a 'moderate muslim', or if they were to speak out would they not be considered apostate... unbelievers... as going against Islam?  Can one denounce sharia without denouncing Islam?  This is where the problem is.  They can not speak out, without being considered enemies within their own communities.

Oddly when I listen to the Republican arguments, and the Democratic arguments... they both make sense.  The Republicans warned what would happen, and it has...
but the Democrats are also correct that this senseless killing must be stopped on the ideological level.  I understand how the Americans, and others, feel about having sacrificed enough, indeed, too many, of their sons in these battles.
(regarding Hilary Clinton, in my opinion she is a waste of air and needs to just disappear from the earth )

I believe in the woman who understands arabic, and so knows what is said behind backs, and behind doors.  I have had these same experiences of understanding, when people thought I could not.
I believe in the military men who have been there, and seen first hand, the situation.
I mostly agree that Obama only cared about himself, and his 'legacy'.
But I do feel there was also an element of the American public being tired of this war with no end, and no good outcome, in sight.  Does it make sense to keep fighting for a people who have no appreciation for what you are fighting for?  (If you build schools, and power plants, and they blow them up) 
If they wanted us out, does it make sense to stay?  But again, I think those closest to the situation... those military personnel would be the best judges of that, knowing the situation on the ground.

To say, 'they aren't intelligent enough' though, is just arrogance and ignorant to say.  The young woman says it correctly, it is a difference of culture, and culture takes time to grow and change.  Education is necessary.  It has nothing to do with lack of intelligence, just a lack of adequate ecucation... but if they reject education... what if they reject growth... then what?  Then they remain in tyranny and ruled by tyrants who impose evil, and oppression.

Brigitte loses integrity because of her loud mouth, and impoliteness.  She may speak truth, but the way she speaks causes her to lose my respect and thus my belief.
  I could do without the whole middle segment of this.
... to just keep calling someone a liar is just rude and obnoxious.  If you want to discuss points, then discuss points, but Brigitte acted like a fool.

The whole discussion, in my opinion, devolves after the 23 minute mark.
