Taliban tortures 17 year old girl in Pakistan

According to this Los Angeles Times article, a 17 year old Pakistani girl was tortured by the Taliban for refusing an arranged marriage.


Of course, this evilness is the fault of the United States. The Islamo-Fascists are only mean because of the U.S. involvement in the Middle East. If we would just stop supporting Israel, then this type of behavior would cease.

Islamo-Fascists only exist in response to American foreign policy. If we would just let them be, the Islamo-Fascists would stop beheading infidels, stop honor killing their own women and girls, and stop strapping bombs on their own children. This evil behavior is not their fault. It is ours.

But for American foreign policy, the Islamo-Fascists would start butterfly farms and hand out lollipops. 

If only the U.S. would leave them alone.

Right?

And this new Afghani law is surely the fault of the United States, too:

Human rights groups and some Afghan lawmakers criticized President Hamid Karzai on Thursday for signing into law legislation that some believe legalizes the rape of a wife by her husband and prevents women from leaving the house without a man’s permission.

Since Islam is a religion of peace, this behavior can not be the fault of Islam. It is the fault of the Great Satan: The United States.

Right?

    Pakistan is going through a very difficult period and is a victim of terrorism.
    If a patient is sick, there is a need to help it recover by medication and not by killing it.
    Pakistan needs your help and understanding in this hour of need as we are suffering and want to be the frond of West not enemy.

    This story originally was reported in the Wall Street Journal. It has more to do with Wahabism and Sharia law than any reaction to US policies. I know you were trying to be sarcastic, but its a serious problem throughout the Islamic world.

    You know, that has to be the most exceedingly glaring example of a straw man argument I’ve seen in quite some time.

    And say again: you’re a libertarian?

    The “blowback” argument is not that Muslims will stop behaving like Muslims if only we get out of the Middle East and end our blind support of the State of Israel. The “blowback” argument, a commonsense argument which is based the observation of basic human nature, is that Muslims would be far less likely to commit acts of terrorism HERE IN THE UNITED STATES if only we’d stop f&@#ing about in their nations. Quit giving them *reasons* for revenge, and maybe they’ll *stop taking* revenge. What they do on their own turf is their business. We aren’t global moral police, however much the neocons want us to be.

    Let Muslims be Muslims. But over there, not over here (hence the “separationist” principle supported by Lawrence Auster, Srdja Trifkovic and other paleocon thinkers). And don’t piss them off. Sounds pretty libertarian to me, David. What say you?
