Muslim Imam Goes on Fox After Orlando, Says Some Journalists Need to be Beheaded’
n light of the recent terrorist attack in Orlando, Fox News host Greta Van Susteren decided to invite controversial Imam Abu Taubah on her show to discuss the tragedy.
Van Susteren likely got a whole lot more than she was bargaining for when Taubah decided to share his thoughts about journalists.
Check this out.
From TheBlaze:
Controversial Imam Abu Taubah, whose real name is Marcus Robertson, believes “some journalists need to be beheaded,” a bold statement he insisted was said “facetiously.”
Speaking Tuesday with Fox News host Greta Van Susteren about the deadly Orlando terrorist attack, which he condemned, Taubah suggested the fact that radical Islamists behead American reporters, like James Foley, is not the U.S.’s business.
“I believe some journalists need to be beheaded,” he said, “but I wouldn’t have done that.”
During the same interview, the imam refused to condemn stoning of women who engage in adultery.
“I do not condemn that,” he told the Fox host confidently. “Do you condemn someone getting the electric chair for whatever crime they get the electric chair for?”
“So you think adultery for a woman is a death penalty offense?” Van Susteren pressed.
Taubah said the rule does not just apply to women and asked the Fox reporter why she was singling out women: “Why you wanna specify a woman?”
“Because I see the women stoned to death and I don’t see the men,” Van Susteren shot back. “Are they stoning the men to death? Are they?”
Call me crazy, but I’m not seeing much in Taubah’s language and belief system that screams “religion of peace,” are you?
This man is the perfect example of why it’s ridiculous for the left in this country to continue pretending like the religion of Islam has nothing to do with the behavior of radical Muslims.
It quite clearly does.
How do we combat an enemy who is so solidly grounded in their belief system they truly think murdering other people is acceptable practice without acknowledging their ideology is the well from which this behavior springs?
You see an example of that right here with this imam.
Until we accept that Islam is at war with us, and this isn’t just a war of attrition, but of ideas as well, we’ll never develop a proper strategy to put this threat to rest.
