my gosh... I'm speechless

If there is indeed anything like an illness here it would more accurately be called Islamophobiaphobia, i.e. the abnormal and irrational fear of the fear of Islam. Politically correct people suffer from something that looks like this, just as they evince signs of homophobiaphobia. And, of course, almost all of them exhibit racism phobia, for which there currently exists no useful phobiaphobia category.

Ambassador Stevens was unavailable for comment.

Correct me if I am wrong, but isn't Pickering a Muslim convert?

Wonder how former Amb. Pickering would feel had he been the Ambassador in Benghazi a few months ago.

I admit to being ignorant of the 'benign Muslim Religion' about which Pickering speaks.
I am however, very familiar with the hateful, murderous cult which masquerades as a religion to benefit from it's freedoms.

So much for an impartial analysis of Hussein's treasonous actions on Benghazi.

Too bad he wasn't in the World Trade Center on 9/11/01 or the US Embassy in Benghazi on 9/11/12.

If this gentleman is a lead investigator into Benghazi, there is no hope we'll ever get the truth.

This is the same as having Eric Holder investigate Fast & Furious.

No fear. Outright opposition. If one believes in one's religion then religious tolerance is not an option. Either one serves God or the Enemy.

Count me as an islamaphobe.
I do not wish to live under Sharia.
I do not want to be dictated to by a Mullah.
I do not want to learn Arabic and memorize the Koran.
I do not want to be prohibited from asking questions.
I do not believe that a suicide bomber is a martyr.
I do not believe Muslim women exist only to make babies for Jihad (male) and babies to give birth to Jihadists (female).

What did you expect from Hussein?

Islamophobic? Not me. Just:

Torture-Phobic

SuddenJihadSyndrome-Phobic

KoranicKillThemBeheadThem-Phobic

GenitalMutilation-Phobic

CarBomb-Phobic

IED-Phobic

Mullah-Phobic

NoProphetButMohamed-Phobic

NoGodButAllah-Phobic

MuslimsMurderingMuslims-Phobic

FM.

It is not a phobia if it is justified by fact.

Time to get the Muzzies out of the WH.

Looks like Pickering wants to be the center of attention.

OFF with his head!

This AH needs to read this, but he won't because his head is in the sand:

FTA: "benign Muslim religion"

I wonder what color the sky is on his planet?

Not all Muslims are homocide bombers, but all homocide bombers are Muslims.

Liar! Liar! Liar! Pickering is a Liar and a POS! He is a traitor and should suffer the fate of traitors ...

Appointed to investigate how the video really is responsible. Neither truthful nor helpful.

Many of us work with or live near muslims in the US. It doesn't work to make an issue of religious difference, sharia, or terrorism in our daily lives with these neighbors. But that does not mean we should be reordering our lives around them or ignoring facts like the Islamic religious requirements of a state and conversion or subverion (dhimmitude) of the world, the dogmatic creation of, and disregard for infidels, and the differences in violence and freedom between all other major religions and Islam.

Separately, I'll be taking my cues from this guy when he recognizes that this country does not criminalize religious or political offense. Until then, he's simply supporting suppression of criticism of a religion founded by a military conqueror, slave owner, and misogynist with no resemblance to Moses, Christ, Bhudda or any other central figure of a major religion. It would also help if he actally came out against his government paying to create acts of offense to other religions before using his position to condemn Americans who question the religion of people who kill, persecute and abort the freedom of all others on a large scale in the name of that religion and without real and sustained contest of those acts by that religion. Then maybe he could begin to have an honest conversation with Americans.

With Pickering, we knew this would be coming, which is exactly why the Smartest Woman in the world picked him. We are doomed if we don't fight back like it's the Final Battle.

Pickering apparently never heard the old truism that "even paranoids have enemies."

Or the Holocaust Survivor's answer to what he learned from the experience: "When someone says he's going to kill you, believe them."

Too bad [for the rest of us] that Leftists have "evolved" past the point of having a drive for self-preservation. Wish it only affected them.

Well when Mooslimes respect everyone else and don't try to kill innocents, we can then start to work together. The way the cult acts it's not a matter of Islamophobes, it is survival among a bunch of mad wild animals.

Obviously another useful idiot for the most vile, violent, disgusting animals on earth-Muslims.
