Obama's 'Titanic' Deception About Islam

Navigating America’s ship-of-state in the wake of terrorist attacks in Paris by Islamic State jihadis, President Barack Obama has made an incredulous decision to sail full speed ahead into some very dangerous waters.

Islamic State boasts about having used the influx of Syrian refugees flooding Europe as concealment to position terrorists for those attacks. Despite this and despite warnings as to the dangers of doing so, Obama has announced he will press forward with resettling thousands of Syrian refugees in the U.S.

Over a century ago, another ship navigated into harms way when a captain refused to heed warnings he was given — opting instead to sail full speed ahead. Motivated by ego rather than the safety of the lives entrusted to him, Captain Edward J. Smith sealed Titanic’s fate.

As Obama not only ignores warnings about terrorists hiding among Syrian refugees but also aggressively fights efforts to improve the vetting process for them, he — like Captain Smith — will not be remembered kindly by history for the consequences of his decision.

Smith’s gross negligence that April night in 1912 cost the lives of 1,516 passengers. Obama’s negligence, which might even prove criminal, will cost many more lives among 321 million passengers onboard his ship.

Obama remains committed to relocating Syrian refugees — most of whom are neither Syrian nor refugees but immigrants seeking the economic benefits of democratic welfare states. He mocks Republicans opposed to this effort, claiming they fear “widows and orphans” — most of whom are neither as 70 percent are young males.

Even if the Muslim immigrants were primarily women and children, they too have willingly played roles as suicide bombers. Hasna Aitboulahcen most recently may have become Europe’s first female suicide bomber, allegedly blowing herself up as Paris police closed in on Abdelhamid Abaaoud — the mastermind of the attacks. As will be the case with many future immigrants who turn radical, her own family and friends’ vetting process failed to identify her as a threat.

A black market for fake Syrian passports exists in Turkey. Meanwhile, Muslim immigrants headed for the U.S. carrying false passports have been caught by alert officials in Honduras. Such routing and financial ability to purchase airfare suggest possible Islamic State funding.

In saying he will press forward to resettle Syrian refugees, Obama ignores evidence of the European turmoil Muslim immigration is creating. Videos show endless waves of Muslims descending upon villages like swarms of locusts, stripping towns of anything of value. Bloodied homeowners are shown in disbelief and shock nothing is done to protect them or their property as law enforcement is simply overwhelmed by the sheer numbers involved.

Even if no terrorists were among them, these immigrants clearly come armed with a lack of intent to respect the host nation’s laws.

While a U.S. relocation effort would undoubtedly be better organized, historically once a Muslim population grows in numbers, it exhibits a more aggressive side — one focusing on maximizing its culture and laws, as mandated by Islam, at the expense of those of the host nation.

Earlier this month, the first American city in history, Hamtramck, just outside Detroit, elected a Muslim majority to its town council — control of which was relinquished by a shrinking Polish population.

An exuberant Muslim council member could not contain his joy over this landmark event as Islam had established its first elected foothold on American soil. Harboring no interest in unity, he boasted, “Today we show the Polish and everybody else.”

Towns such as Hamtramck will become future breeding grounds for jihadists — just like the Belgian city of Molenbeek was for Paris terrorist mastermind Abaaoud.

In the aftermath of the Paris attacks, Obama’s denial in linking Islam to terrorism has gotten worse. While in Turkey this week speaking about the slaughter, he shockingly chose to describe the attacks as a “setback.”

To better understand the link between terrorism and Islam, Obama should have attended the November 17 soccer match held between Turkey and Greece in Istanbul. When Turkish fans were asked at the game’s outset to observe a moment of silence in honor of the Paris victims, they instead shouted “Allah Akbar.” To Turkish commoners, the Paris attackers were heroes.

And the Turks — our NATO allies — represent just the tip of the Islamist iceberg. A recent Pew poll indicates between 63-287 million Islamic State supporters exist among just 11 representative nation-states in which polling was conducted.

Before France could even bury all its dead, another Islamic motivated massacre occurred, this one in Mali, where gunmen shouted “Allah Akbar” as they began killing non-Muslims at a resort hotel made their motivation clear.

To this day, Obama continues to project the 2009 shootings at Fort Hood by Maj. Nidal Hasan as “workplace violence” even though the mass murderer proudly proclaimed his Islamic motivation.

Obama has infected subordinates with an influenza of irresponsibility and deception, pressing them to promote Islam as a “peaceful” religion despite a contrary reality. This deception has been acknowledged by the head of the Department of Homeland Security, Jeh Johnson. Earlier this year he revealed U.S. government policy is to refrain from labeling Islam-motivated attacks as such, even when clear evidence exists, in an effort to “build trust” among Muslims.

It should now be clear we no longer can assume Obama’s refusal to link terrorism and Islam is driven by blind ignorance. We must recognize his motivation is one of malicious intent to conceal from the American public a very dark side Islam has for everything non-Islamic.

Not until the Titanic actually struck that iceberg long ago did her passengers even know a threat to all onboard existed. America’s ship-of-state is on course for an attack of Titanic proportions by Islamic-motivated terrorists. When it happens, Obama will not be surprised—and, at this point, due to his seven-year effort to hide what should be obvious to all passengers onboard, neither should we.
