Unwittingly abetting evil

Barabara Stock takes a look at the Al-Queda terror manual and asks if the left is listening:

…Every organization has a “mission statement” and terrorists are no different. What is their goal? They have only one: “The overthrow of the godless regimes and their replacement with an Islamic regime.” The terrorists have some other minor goals, but they are all in place to achieve the main goal of world domination. In case no one has noticed, Islam considers America one of those “Godless regimes.”…

…My personal favorite from the mission statement is: “Spreading rumors and writing statements that instigate people against the enemy.” Does the overblown behavior of a few at the Abu Ghraib prison in Iraq come to mind? The saddest thing for America is that it was our own media that did the terrorists dirty work for them. The New York Times had that story on its front page for over 48 days. Who needs Al Jezeera when you have The New York Times?...

…Even the expert Islamic terrorist will find himself in the hands of the infidel on occasion. What to do? Knowing that the foolish, liberal West will fall all over itself to be fair with an enemy that doesn’t know the meaning of the word “fair,” the terrorist will be given a trial. When the trial begins, the first thing the good terrorist must do is claim to have been tortured. “At the beginning of the trial, once more the brothers must insist on proving that torture was inflicted on them by State Security [investigators] before the judge.” Very vocal complaints of torture should be given to the judge and shouted to any media that is within earshot, and the names of prison guards should be memorized and repeated. These names should be passed on to the other “brothers” in prison so that they can use them as well…

…When a Marine shoots a man playing dead after seeing his best friend killed the day before by someone using the same tactic, the liberal media wants his head on a pike. The video is shown over and over again on the American cable channels. Again, who needs the enemy press when our own media and press outlets carry out the terrorist’s plans to the letter?
