Political Correctness trumping Western democratic values for sure.

If people are afraid of being labelled bigot, racist or Islamaphobe they are seriously putting your life at risk - their reluctance to report a suspicious incident could get them or others killed due to being brainwashed by the PC brigade.

As long as those in charge are more concerned about offending Muslims than they are about defending against terrorism, Western nations will be more vulnerable than they should be.

All mosques must be put under immediate inspection and supervision to monitor what is taught and to force them to introduce anti - radicalisation programs - they need to openly refute the teachings of the Qur’an or they get shut down, pack their bags and be forced to leave. Muslims have two choices, they either follow the teachings of Islamic text or do not - simple question which could be asked - if you follow the teachings of Islam then you have no place in Western society as your belief is at odds with what we believe in.

These are a few examples:

a) In 2007 there was a Jihad plot against Fort Dix, terrorists were plotting to kill as many US soldiers as they could before being killed themselves and going to Paradise (and getting the 72 virgins, etc., etc.). They went to a video store to convert videos from tape to DVD. As the tapes were converting the operator saw the footage of military dressed people with guns and shouting Jihadist statements which alarmed him, he knew he should report it but was concerned about being branded racist. He went home and eventually after discussing it with his family decided to tell the police --- The terrorists were arrested and several plots foiled. And with regard to Racism ------ The terrorists were Albanian Muslims (White people).

His immediate reaction to call police was likely to have been subdued by the PC rhetoric, like most of us, he encountered every day - you may think you are not paying attention and are not PC but the case of Brian Morganstern shows how doubt can be sowed.

b) Following the terror murders of 14 in San Bernardino, Calif, a whistle-blower came forward to say that politically correct forces within the Obama administration had shut down a surveillance project that might have prevented the attack.

Former U.S. Department of Homeland Security analyst Philip Haney was in charge of a program that was tasked with monitoring global networks of extremists who were suspected of infiltrating Muslim communities in the U.S. and radicalizing American Muslims.

One of the networks he and his analysts were watching was based in Riverside, Calif., a community next to San Bernardino.

It was operating out of the very mosque that killer Syed Farook attended.

But because Haney’s project monitored mostly Islamic radicals, it was deemed a form of racial profiling.

So, according to Haney, politically correct bureaucrats from the U.S. State department and the Homeland Security Office for Civil Rights and Civil Liberties shut it down, reassigned his staff and expunged the records of its 67 ongoing investigations.

There is no way to stop every terror attack and no way of knowing for sure whether Haney’s group could have prevented San Bernardino by identifying Farook and his wife, Tashfeen Malik, in advance.


c) In Canada at just about the same time Prime Minister Justin Trudeau was beamingly greeting the first planeload of Syrian refugees to Canada, customs officials in Toronto were giving the third degree to American author, Robert Spencer.

Spencer is a harsh critic of radical Islam.

He has written 14 books on terrorism and radicalization, including two New York Times bestsellers.

But when he tried to come to Canada for a speaking engagement organized by the Jewish Defence League, Spencer was grilled for three hours at Pearson International airport and his luggage searched for hate literature.

Noted author held up for his views while refugees (whose views we don’t know) are welcomed like heroes.

That’s PC trumping Western democratic values for sure.
