Bomb those who say Islam is violent?

Michael Goodwin:
According to a relative of Tamerlan Tsarnaev, the Chechen immigrant believed there is “oppression of the Muslim population around the world.” The relative described Tsarnaev to The New York Times this way: “He was angry that the world pictures Islam as a violent religion.”

Bombing the Boston Marathon was the Tsarnaev brothers’ way of defending Islam. To say their argument boomeranged, however, isn’t fully true. Not as long as the Obama administration puts religious blinders on the defenders of our homeland.

At its core, the Boston case reveals two fundamental truths. One, not all Muslims are terrorists. Two, in recent times, almost all terrorists are Muslims.

Willie Sutton robbed banks because that’s where the money is. Police didn’t catch him by staking out lemonade stands.

By the same logic, preventing terrorism requires close scrutiny of Muslim men leaning toward violent jihad. Had they followed that logic, the FBI could have prevented the bombing.

But with each passing day, it becomes maddeningly clear that political correctness was complicit in the failure. President Obama’s stubborn refusal to connect the dots to Islam isn’t just a personal tic. It reflects the policy he has spread throughout the bureaucracy, including law enforcement and the military.

This is the convergence of liberal idiocy with Muslim  "logic."  Muslims have the only faith where some believe in mass murder for Allah.  There are also many Muslims who are angry that people fight back when attacked.  It is these two characteristics of radical Muslim thought that have propelled this endless war.  It is the liberal belief that if we ignore this traits the Muslims want be radicalized that has made it more difficult to stop the mass murder attacks.

The non radical Muslims probably understand the problem better than the liberals, but many of them are also cowed by the radicals and are afraid to speak out.
