Jake Tapper Reminds Us That ‘Allahu Akbar’ Can Be Beautiful, As News Develops Of NYC Terror Incident
He gets a tingle in his neck.
Via PJ Media:
An incident occurred today in New York that even progressive Mayor Bill de Blasio couldn’t pass off as workplace violence. A truck plowed into a bicycle-only lane on a busy street in Manhattan. The City of New York determined that the truck attack that left at least eight people dead was indeed an “act of terror.”
But meanwhile, CNN once again showed where its priorities were. As news broke that the driver was shouting “Allahu Akbar” as he attacked these people, Jake Tapper wanted to remind his audience that “The Arabic chant ‘Allahu Akbar,’ God is great… sometimes said under the most beautiful of circumstances, and too often we hear it being said in moments like this.” Sure, he did finish the sentence by talking about how we have heard this chant in moments of horror, but why even say the first part? Liberals like him always think they have to remind people that there are Muslims who are good — that ‘Allahu Akbar’ can be beautiful. This piece of commentary was unnecessary and insulting during such a time of crisis.

The words "God bless you" and "Merry Christmas" are beautiful to jake but this us what happens to too many on the left when they hear them.

To YOU....whereas it's offensive to others
But yet you don't see how ideology effects peoples perspectives
And that would be my problem how? What happens after somebody is offended? NOTHING. Nothing happens. I say Merry Christmas, somebody gets offended. I walk away and continue my day. Just because somebody doesn't like something I say is not really my problem. The problem is how that offended person deals with it. Do they let it ruin their day by obsessing over it? Or do they make a mental note not to interact with me and continue with their day? It seems that a very large majority would rather obsess over it and let it ruin their day / week / month / year. I could really care less if somebody like that chooses not to interact with me again. Seems that there are many like myself that don't have the time, need or want that kind of childish drama in our lives. We don't say it out of spite or the the goal to offend. That is how we were raised. It's a gesture, not a threat.
Being what he is i am sure they are probably low and trending to non-existent
Dude! What the hell does that word salad got to do with anything?! All I did was make a comment about how to one person a certain phrase can be beautiful and offensive to another! No one can say the other person is wrong because everyone's ideology isn't the same.....and instead of you acknowledging that you go off on some mouth foaming tangent!......get a grip (or some Xanex!)
You forget what you posted.
It's funny how people think that Allah Akbar is strictly a Muslim phrase. I guess people don't understand that Allah Akbaris Arabic for God is great and is used not only by Muslims but Arabic speaking Christians (and all their sects) as well.
The Leftists in this country have it as their first priority to make sure we understand that not all Muslims are terrorists - as if someone were calling for the criminalization of Islam or the mass deportation of all Muslims.
But whenever a non-Muslim shoots somebody, they ignore the 100 million gun owners who aren't murderers and insist that all guns contribute to the problem, the NRA is responsible and has blood on its hands, and additionally, anyone in America who doesn't want to get rid of all the guns is as culpable as the trigger man himself.
I wonder if Jimmy Kimmel will be on TV crying tonight about how we need to do something about Muslim terrorism. Probably not.
