Rep. Allen West Slams Obama’s Koran-Burning Apology

In response to the violent protests that have swept through Afghanistan and claimed the lives of U.S. servicemen, President Obama sent Afghan President Hamid Karzai a letter. However, rather than demanding the murderers be brought to justice, the president’s letter apologizes for what “sparked” the protests: U.S. soldiers accidentally incinerating copies of the Koran that were being used by detainees to trade secret information.
(Related: MSNBC Host on Koran Apology: ‘Americans Wouldn’t Go in the Streets & Start Killing People’)
In his letter, the president expresses his “deep regret for the reported incident’’ and offers his “sincere apologies.’’
According to the statement, the president wrote: “The error was inadvertent; I assure you that we will take the appropriate steps to avoid any recurrence, to include holding accountable those responsible.’’
Since making this plea for forgiveness, the president has been roundly criticized by conservative pundits and politicians.

And not one to shy away from expressing his concerns for how U.S. service members are treated by the Obama administration, Rep. Allen West (R-FL), released a statement directed at the president’s apology Monday morning. Here is the Congressman’s message via his Facebook page:
I want to extend my sincere condolences to the families of the Army Colonel and Major who were killed by Afghanistan security forces over this “burning Koran” episode.
If we had resolute leadership in the White House, we would have explained that these Islamic terrorist enemy combatants detained at the Parwan facility used the Koran to write jihadist messages to pass to others.
In doing so, they violated their own cultural practice and defiled the Koran and turned the Koran into contraband.
The Islamic cultural practice and Parwan detention facility procedures support burning the “contraband.”
Instead here we go again, offering apology after apology and promising to “hold those responsible accountable.” Responsible for what?
When tolerance becomes a one-way street it leads to cultural suicide.
This time it immediately led to the deaths of two American Warriors.
America is awaiting the apology from President Hamid Karzai.
Indeed, America is waiting on Karzai — just don‘t be surprised if there isn’t lot of sympathy expressed by the man who, in a thinly veiled threat, once referred to the U.S.-led NATO forces as an “occupying force.”

Posted on February 27, 2012 at 3:09pm“When tolerance becomes a one-way street it leads to cultural suicide.”
Whuch is exactly what the community organizer and his handlers know full well. Anybody who thinks this presidential dork doesn’t want this culture replaced with a Marxist one is smoking too much weed,
That‘s exactly why he’s beginning his “Civilian Defense Corps, as powerful and well-funded as the military.” Starting things off with his African Americans for Obama movement and his appeal to the black churches to pass the gospel that consists of his agenda, he’s embarking on ratcheting up his army of black minions, hopefully to include OWS and the unions if he can keep from scaring them away by hiding his racist intent.
If the black community cosisted of mostly people like Allen West, I’d have no complaint about them at all. But West is representative of such a small number of the black population the figure is insignificant.
The vast majority are wetting their pants in anticipation of taking over, led by their community organizer in his second term.
And the whole bunch has the nerve to call conservatives racists.

Posted on February 27, 2012 at 4:07pmAfghanistan is producing poppies and opium probably with our tax dollars. As much as I wish the country could be a democracy or a decent republic, there’s little chance. Opium is far more profitable to those cave dwellers than acting like the “innocent farmers” with zero ties to Al-Quada or Taliban. Our troops just need to be sent home. We’ll be dealing with Afghani cartel problem if they are left there til 2014. Karzai has his position and our money. Lots of it. Our troops trained a pack of ferrel people who turned the knowledge against us and kill the people trying to help them. West understands, but it’s too little too late. You cannot tame wild animals. These people are beasts and our President adores them and hates the people he represents. Apologies, bowing, government takeovers, and blatant lying is all Obama represents. His lips must get dry from so much Muslim *sskissing.

In Islam the word “muruna” means stealth flexibility and sanctions deception and lying, and it says “by false peace we will decieve many”. A winged horse touched down the the al aqsa mosque before carring him from the temple mount up to allah. FACT, There was NO al aqsa mosque in Israel at the time of mohammad. this is a book of lies and death which has decieved many. p.s. there is a US congressman who has taken his oath of office on this book. How could the congress let him do this? and then believe his truth of oath? Mr. West told Obama, Pelosi & Reid to get the hell out of the USA. I think Allen West is Awesome. Harry Reid is holding up 30 house jobs bills in the Senate, he will not even allow the senate to vote on any of them-no one person should ever be allowed to have this much power over 300 million people. These three are very, very EVIL and only want POWER just like the devil. The devil is trying to break God’s covenant with Israel..The devil thinks he can then have power over God.

You cannot reason with people that are unreasonable. These demonstrations prove the collective mob insanity of the protesters.
The only reason, I believe, that Obama can’t see this is that his moral values and views more closely align with the Muslims. There really can be no other explanation for his actions. I just hope we can make it to the next President and he restores America’s pride in herself.

Secret Service personnel have stated he is a dishonest person and his wife hates white people. He is a very dangerous man and ignores the law in general, the will of the American people, Congress, and the Constitution.
There are no longer massive adoring crowds to deceive. For the first time in Barack Obama’s life, he is accountable. He has repeatedly shown that he cannot deal with, and will never be able to shoulder responsibility, as he is at his core a self-absorbed man, and a very dishonest human being.
Obama has never stood for individualism, capitalism, or liberty. The citizens of our country naively gave the reins of power to a tyrant. The White House has been marginalized and he has proven himself to be the most inept president in modern history. He is symbolic of a man who has downgraded the White House, the Constitution, human life, foreign policy, race relations, and America herself.
His resignation from office would be a great first step toward economic recovery. The majority of Americans are sick of his condescension, his policies, his racist bigotry, and his incompetence. Obama is “the most disastrous president in our history.”
This is the most corrupt, incompetent, dangerous tyrannical administration in American history. His only chance at re-election is to redistribute billions of dollars to his voters and campaign contributors in the way of entitlements, welfare, food

Yes, I do believe it was a mistake, but that doesn‘t mean we shouldn’t apologize. I was stationed in one of our allied countries when a U.S. Government employee dumped seven gallons of embalming fluid into the sewer system. The trouble went on for years and we paid fines and they were still unhappy with us. Refusing to apologize, refusing to be a good neighbor is what gets us in trouble in foreign countries. It makes them not like us. It makes it harder for the Americans who live and work in those countries. An apology costs nothing, but it could bring good will. Stomping around like the intemperate Mr. West of Florida is what gets us hated.

Posted on February 27, 2012 at 2:12pmThat’s so nice TOKYO ROSE…although…weren’t those Korans being used to write and ferry messages on by the prisoners in that facility? So what you‘re saying is we should respect prisoners’ “rights” to use any clandestine means at their disposal to communicate with each other and outsiders and then apologise when we destroy the tools they’re using? I appreciate your media matters approved talking points tulip but they’re quite flaccid. You should return to your keepers and ask for better material buttercup. There’s a good lefty…run along now.

Posted on February 27, 2012 at 2:15pmIt wasn’t a mistake, it was intentional because it was contraband. It’s the same principles the rag heads use when they shoot at U.S. soldiers from a Mosque, and we are too pussified to shoot back so we don’t “offend” them.

Report Post »Afghanistan is an ungovernable mess. Apologies don’t mean anything to these people. They are uneducated and reactionary. Talk to any Indian or Pakistani and they’ll tell you the same. I worked with an Indian muslim gentlman at one point and he reitered that same sentiment. Afghanistan is the wild west, it’s feral. Talk to any returned serviceman and he’ll tell you the same. But in the liberal dreamworld TOKYROSE lives in “apologies can make a difference”. No…not in a cesspit like Afghanistan. This why the Taliban and al Qaeda could flourish there. Feel goodisms like “apologies” don’t matter in a country like Afghanistan. This is why it’s a waste of time to apologise to them. We owe them no apologies the korans were being used to ferry messages in. This is why it’s so painful to watch Obama debase the presidency and constantly apologise to these banana republics, their corrupt leaders and their feral people.

You’ve clearly had too much BS fertilizing that desert flower!
If you had a copy of the book “Moby Dick”, you would know what the book was because you can (presumably) read English. Now, what if that book was written in, say, Arabic? Would you know what the book was then?
Second, it’s illegal in the Islamic world to write notes in the Quran. Third, the Taliban has destroyed and burned Mosques which contained many copies of the Quran. Where was the Muslim outrage over that? Hint… There wasn’t any…

Posted on February 27, 2012 at 4:09pmYou may belong in a barran land but you are no rose and certainly not a lady. You write like a traitor. We have nothing to apoligize to this primative trash in Afghanstan and other arab countries. Any religion or culture that preaches it just fine to kill or enslave nonbelivers of their made up religion, Islam. Mohammaded was a lying bastard that took parts of the Jewish religion, Christainty, and sheer imagination and claimed the Arangel Gaberial gave him golden tablets which he read. He was illiterate and could not read nor write in any language. The Korean was written after his death by those he claimed to have heard him say this or that. It is false doctrine through and through.

Posted on February 27, 2012 at 1:52pmObama is SO useless. The Afghans never apologized to US when bibles were burned. We didn’t go killing Afghans in the streets. Allen West is right. Obabma is to radical to be in politics, or anything else for that matter. America doesn’t have to apologize to anyone!

Posted on February 27, 2012 at 2:43pmThe U.S. military should have scanned the pages from the Qu’ran with the messages written on them.
To show the world it was being done.
Of course the leftists like Craig (I dumped my wife for a 19 year old stripper). Murray would say the military wrote the messengers to frame the Taliban.
So let’s do one better. When the mule” delivering the Quran to the prison, we film his arrest live & then scan the Qu’ran on live TV.

Posted on February 27, 2012 at 1:42pmNever heard on peep out of our Supreme Leader when hundreds of Bibles were purposely burned so as not to “offend” the Afghans. I’d also like to hear the Bible referred to as the Holy Bible just once by the liberal media, since we always hear about the “holy koran”.

Posted on February 27, 2012 at 1:49pmObama is a disgrace to this country. Not that it wasn’t already apparent—-but this goes beyond treason. Hold those responsible accountable? For what? Doing their damn job? For all those that spend their days and nights trying to get Bush into prison, welcome to the new reality. This man has blatantly, openly and admittedly violated the constitution over and over. May I present you with “We can’t wait”….when Congress won’t act, I’ll just violate the constitution and do whatever I want. Throwing our troops to the Islamic wolves over and over should make it abundantly clear to every American that if he will do it to those who die for our country, your insignificant little butt won’t be a blip on the radar!
