From the May 28th edition of the Financial Times, we learned that the Department of Homeland Security has finally gone completely batty:
The west needs a more comprehensive strategy to counter al-Qaeda propaganda and the US should stop using the term “war on terror”, according to a top intelligence official.
Charles Allen, the senior intelligence official at the Department of Homeland Security, says the phrase is counter-productive because it creates “animus” in Islamic countries.
“[It] has nothing to do with political correctness,” Mr Allen said in an interview. “It is interpreted in the Muslim world as a war on Islam and we don’t need this.”...
Charles Allen is obviously a stupid ass clown with an IQ that challenges Forrest Gump.
The Muslim world is offended by the term "War on Terror". Well maybe they ought to step up and show they "have a pair" and stop so many of their brethern from using terror as a weapon in the fight to establish a new Caliphate.
There are many reasons to discard the title "War on Terror", the least of which would be that it is far too nebulous and ill-defined a term to describe the struggle human civilization faces. But the fact that a collection of mysoginistic, hate-filled anti-Semites who lack the courage to stand up and be counted by opposing and crushing the extremists in their midsts is hardly good cause!
Nothing to do with "political correctness"? Taures Feces est.
If there ever was a good reason to dissolve the idiotic and stupid creation known as the Department of Homeland Security, Charles Allen has just provided it. He deserves scorn, ridicule, and shame.
And unemployment.
