How Not To Win The War On Terror (keep exporting abortion and sex ed)

Dinesh D'Souza's new book, The Enemy at Home: The Cultural Left and
Its Responsibility for 9/11, has Michael Moore frothing at the
mouth.For D'Souza's thesis is that Moore and others of his ilk have
"fostered a decadent American culture that angers and repulses
traditional societies, especially those in the Islamic world, that are
being overwhelmed with this culture."
Moreover, they are "waging an aggressive global campaign
to undermine the traditional patriarchal family and to promote secular
values in non-Western cultures." Thus they are--in part--responsible
for the rise of Islamic terrorism against the West.
The Cultural Left, without apology for its relentless promotion of
abortion, sexual promiscuity, homosexuality, divorce and other
"rights" at home and abroad, has dismissed his book out of hand. If
you want to talk culpability for terrorist attacks, Moore and others
say, it was America's "lust for oil" and "neo-colonialism" that were
responsible. These ridiculous assertions--America doesn't import its
oil from colonies, but buys it on the open market--have nonetheless
hardened into Leftist dogma.
The Right, which might have been expected to embrace D'Souza's thesis,
has reacted coolly as well. Libertarians, who in general have little
time for tradition, are unlikely candidates for cross-national
coalitions in support of the natural family or life. Even cultural
conservatives, who may be just as angered and repulsed by what they
see issuing from Hollywood and their television sets as a devout
Muslim, are skeptical.
Many, such as Robert Spencer, believe that terrorism is latent within
Islam. Spencer argues that statements made by Mohammed about
Christians and Jews, the whole notion of jihad that he set in motion,
and the historic relegation of non-Muslims to dhimmi, or second-class,
status, all
contain the seed of violence, which can sprout at any time. Islamic
aggression, which several times took it into the very heart of Europe,
occurred many centuries before America, much less the cultural Left,
even existed.
But it is possible to agree that radical Muslims hate us based on
their reading of the Koran, and at the same time acknowledge that the
recent and widespread antipathy towards America among Muslims in
general gains strength from other currents as well. In pointing out
that the Cultural
Left's unceasing advocacy of abortion, sexual promiscuity,
homosexuality and divorce at home and abroad has raised hackles in the
Muslim world, D'Souza has illuminated an important truth.
Most Americans don't understand that this advocacy is not merely an
incidental byproduct of the private sector, but is part and parcel of
our foreign aid program. If Egyptians, for example, chose to
patronize trashy Hollywood productions noteworthy primarily for their
sex, violence, and bad language, then they have no grounds for
complaint. But when Iraqi youths turn on their radios and listen to
the vulgar lyrics of rap songs broadcast into their country by Radio
Sawa, paid for by U.S. taxpayers, then we as a people can rightly be
blamed.
The worst abuses are found in government-funded population control
programs. The United States, both directly and through international
institutions like the World Bank, has been exporting various social
pathologies into relatively innocent and untouched corners of the
world
for going on 40 years now under the guise of "family planning" and
"reproductive health." Billions of dollars a year are being poured
into programs that promote abortion, fund coercive sterilization and
contraceptive campaigns, reach into the schools with pornographic sex
education programs, fund anti-family and anti-child radio and
television programs, undermine primary health care, and encourage
governments to intrude into the private lives of their citizens. Such
programs create bitter resentment in Muslim and non-Muslim countries
alike, as we at PRI
have documented over and over again.
Let me be clear: It is not because women in the West have abortions
and premarital sex that bin Laden and his pals attacked us. They were
bent on violence in any case.
But the promotion by the U.S. and other "modern democracies" of
abortion, divorce, adultery, and premarital sex in Muslim countries
cannot help but generate sympathy and new recruits for those who would
attack the "Great Satan." One can understand the resentment of even
moderate Muslims when Western-funded population controllers come
knocking at the door of their houses, bearing their human pesticides
and insisting that their wives be rendered sterile. Or their
righteous anger when their young child arrive home from school with a
pornographic sex ed booklet, funded by a grant from USAID.
If our foreign aid programs have been hijacked by the Cultural Left,
what is to be done? D'Souza writes that, "As conservatives, we should
export our America. That means introducing in places in Iraq the
principles of self-government, majority rule, minority rights, free
enterprise, and religious toleration. But we must stop exporting the
cultural left's America. That means we should stop insisting on
radical secularism, stop promoting the feminist conception of the
family, stop trying to promote abortion and "sex education," and we
should try and halt the export of the
vulgar and corrupting elements of our popular culture."
One can deplore the burka and at the same time recognize that we as a
nation are doing deliberate violence to the values and family
structure of developing countries. If we want to win the war on
terror, we'd better stop making enemies in this way.

Terrorists are anti-abortion, anti-freedom, and anti-sex.
Which is what he was telling you.
The same people who support pro-choice and homosexuality are
terroristic, anti-freedom, anti-sex perverts.
You are astoundingly assinine.
Or maybe you are just THAT stupid.
The notion that a woman cannot have an abortion EVEN AFTER RAPE AND
INCEST is the very essence of terrorism.
Scares you, I see.
When did I say women would not be able to obtain an abortion if they were
raped?
What could possibly meet the definition any better than that kind of
attitude?
Your attitude.
And yet that is PRECISELY the attitude taken by the anit-choice zealots.
'Anti-Choice' people are more intelligent than pro-choice harlots.

'Frothing at the mouth' could be applied to the Right, as well as Michael

Typical neocon fascist, neo-nazi twaddle. Try to find a link between
conventional religious morality and the lust for wealth and power by
the current ruling class. Truly, our leaders are divinely
inspired!!!
