Dum Pendebat Filius

Whenever a group of crazed radical-Islamist extremists commits some horrible act of terrorism, such as the recent attacks in Bombay, wingnuts expect all Muslims everywhere to condemn it. Fair enough.

But when they do, wingnuts just sneer and say “they don’t really mean it.” Look at the Costco Coulter’s reaction today:

Some ignorant conservatives, along with the predictable liberal mainstream media, are falling for the crocodile tears from Muslims in response to the Mumbai attacks perpetrated by Muslims.

[...]

But here’s the real scoop. Muslims in India know that non-Muslims there are sick and tired of their crap and far less PC about Islam. They don’t want further bad publicity or gravesites that will be scenes of deserved vandalism and protests. This ain’t about doing the right thing. Or about charity. with [sic] Islam, it never is.

When they start denying burial plots to HAMAS [sic] and Hezbollah and Islamic Jihad and Fatah homicide bombers and terrorists at Islamic cemeteries all over the world (and especially in the Mid-East), then it’s something to take note of. Until then–as in when hell freezes–this is a calculated, empty, cheap PR ploy. That’s something Islam knows how to do well.

They aren’t doing this out of kindness, but out of recognition that it will bring increased, deserved ill will toward them from non-Muslims in India who are sick and tired of their crap.

Oh, and by the way, I’m sure the Paki [sic] Muslim cemeteries will happily oblige. Don’t you worry your little heart about it.

Damned if they do, damned if they don’t. If they remain silent, it means they support terrorism. If they condemn terrorism, it just means they’re lying. Nothing any Islamic organization does could satisfy the Costco Coulter.
