Letter to Robin Wright, Diplomatic Correspondent for the Washington Post
Dear Ms. Wright:
I was just watching you on the Chris Matthews show (Sunday morning) where you were emphatically stating that Iran wants nuclear ENERGY, not necessarily nuclear WEAPONS.
So, what....Iranian oil doesn't work? Is there something wrong with the combustion engine? Oil-fired power plants are now "so last millenium"? WHAT???
They can meet all their power needs and more.For you to state on national television that this band of Shiite barbarians straight out of the 8th century are just trying to turn the lights on and not get their hands on a weapon that can level entire cities and plunge a world not just into war but into nuclear winter is not just obtuse, it borders on treason.
I'm a journalist myself and fair and balanced reporting is by and large a thing of the past because of liberal agenda promoters like yourself. The truth can't be told because you're too busy trying to be the smartest person in the room and sell your next book (or soon-to-be-written book).
Run-of-the-mill orthodox Islam is dangerous and backwards. Winston Churchill said it, John Quincy Adams said it, and Robert Spencer and a plethora of others are saying it right now. But their voices can't be heard because of your own.
France is now 10% Muslim and they are rioting in the streets. Look at Thailand, Indonesia, Chechnya. Everywhere there's a Muslim country on a non-Muslim border there is conflict. Islam has spread like a violent cancer for 1400 years. It's first meal were Christian cities and peoples, which may very well be its last.
I don't hate Muslims nor am I a rightist war-monger (or whatever moniker you'll employ to stifle debate and squelch the facts), but just how many times must western civilization....you know, the society that allows, nurtures and protects people just like you (will Islam put up with your bullshit?)...how many times must western civilization be attacked before you quit feeding your own monstrous ego and wake up and report the facts and the truth:
Islam has made war on us, and that war is sanctioned and commanded by the Koran. Shia or Sunni, this IS Islam...it's the moderates that DON'T want to kill us that are the radicals and the exceptions.
