"Jihad is a... legitimate tenet of Islam" says Obama Admin


"Jihad is a... legitimate tenet of Islam"
The president's top counterterrorism adviser,John Brennan on Wednesday called jihad a "legitimate tenet of Islam," arguing that the term "jihadists" should not be used to describe America's enemies.....

"Nor do we describe our enemy as 'jihadists' or 'Islamists' because jihad is a holy struggle, a legitimate tenet of Islam, meaning to purify oneself or one's community, and there is nothing holy or legitimate or Islamic about murdering innocent men, women and children," Brennan said.

This is the same guy who last week wouldn't call Jerusalem "Jerusalem"

Hey Johnny Boy, There was a Jerusalem before there ever was Islam, There was a Jerusalem before there ever was Christianity. Stop Your Revisionist History.

Brennan tries to flip the script. Blames critics

In an op-ed in USA Today, White House counterterrorism chief John Brennan charges that critics who question the Obama administration's decision to grant Miranda rights to accused Detroit bomber Umar Farouk Abdulmutallab are "serv[ing] the goals of al Qaeda."

He says that "The most important breakthrough occurred after Abdulmutallab was read his rights. Immediately after the failed Christmas Day attack, Umar Farouk Abdulmutallab was thoroughly interrogated and provided important information. Senior counterterrorism officials from the White House, the intelligence community and the military were all actively discussing this case before he was Mirandized and supported the decision to charge him in criminal court." Well if he was talking, why stop?

He doesn't say that the "most important" stuff came weeks after the arrest. He doesn't say that the time delay gave all the terrorists time to hide. Gave them time to cover their tracks.

Why are these "experts" in charge?

WOW , Al-Queda has progressed to the point of using individuals.

SHOCKING ! ! !
Question: What was the most shocking, stunning thing that you found out of the review? And, Secretary, to you, as well.

MR. BRENNAN: Al Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula is an extension of al Qaeda core coming out of Pakistan.(DUH ! !) And, in my view, it is one of the most lethal and one of the most concerning of it. The fact that they had moved forward to try to execute this attack against the homeland I think demonstrated to us — and this is what the review sort of uncovered — that we had a strategic sense of sort of where they were going, but we didn’t know they had progressed to the point of actually launching individuals here. And we have taken that lesson, and so now we’re full on top of it.

SECRETARY NAPOLITANO: I think, following up on that, not just the determination of al Qaeda and al Qaeda Arabian Peninsula, but the tactic of using an individual to foment an attack, as opposed to a large conspiracy or a multi-person conspiracy such as we saw in 9/11, that is something that affects intelligence. It really emphasizes now the renewed importance on how different intelligence is integrated and analyzed, and threat streams are followed through. And, again, it will impact how we continue to review the need to improve airport security around the world.

Shocked to learn? Are they serious? Shocked to learn that Al-Queda moved into a vacuum in Yemen. Shocked to learn that they would try a Richard Reid type bomb?

Are we all going to have to take off our underwear at airports now???

No Panty Bombs, Please Mr. Criminal.


Umar Farouk Abdulmutallab, the 23-year-old Nigerian charged with the failed attempt on the Amsterdam-to-Detroit flight, was initially "talking to people who detained him" but now has a public defender and "doesn't have to," John O. Brennan said on "Fox News Sunday."....

The chief counterterrorism adviser on Sunday defended the administration's decision to try in federal court the man charged with attempting to bomb an airliner on Christmas Day and indicated that he would be offered a plea agreement to persuade him to reveal what he knows about al-Qaeda operations in Yemen, it was reported in the Washington Post.

These two paragraphs were reversed. The WAPO Led with the deal piece. They wanted you to think, "OH What a good idea!!!"
Well it is not a good idea Johnny ! ! ! WAPO, it is totally suicidal for the US
Johnny B, he was talking. He didn't need a deal until y'all let him "Lawyer up"
The PantyBomber is not a criminal Johnny. He is a terrorist, an enemy combatant, an enemy of the United States.
