Twaddle from the Top
This is an excellent and informative article. It shows us, however, that there is no clear thinking at the top; further, it shows us that the powers-that-be are obfuscating the truth about Islam and our enemies. They are withholding information from the people. In so doing, we are endangering our civilization, and making it very difficult for us to win this war.

Moreover, this sort of nonsense will only make it even more difficult for the politicians to take the people along with them in their fight (as weak as that fight is at the moment) against the real enemy: Islam.

The simple questions we should be asking ourselves right now are these: Do we really want to win this war? Or are the feelings of Muslims more important to us than saving our civilization? - ©Mark

TOWNHALL.COM: have obtained a document prepared for the Department of Homeland Security, which is not posted on the DHS website. It is an internal handbook telling employees what they should and should not say when speaking about our enemies. The document does say that these guidelines are not mandatory but it is clear throughout the paper that failure to make use of these guidelines would be frowned upon. Some of the views in this document are right on target. I regard others as an effort to evade the truth.

For example, the guidebook says when Osama bin Laden or others try to draw the US Government into a debate we should offer only minimal, if any, response to their messages. When we respond loudly we raise their prestige in the Muslim world. And what al-Qaeda and its affiliates do is damning enough without ascribing to al-Qaeda and its affiliates motives or goals they have not articulated. Our audiences have more familiarity with the terrorist messages than we do and will immediately spot US Government embellishments.

Under the title "Don't Invoke Islam," the guidebook says, "although the al-Qaeda network exploits religious sentiments and tries to use religion to justify its actions, we should treat it as an illegitimate political organization, both terrorist and criminal."

Those are laudable goals. But when the guidebook says we must change the discussion from the West v. Islam or a clash of civilizations, we need to emphasize that terrorists misuse religion as a political tool to harm innocent civilians across the globe. True enough but the truth is we do have a clash of civilizations. Unless citizens understand the big picture they never will take the war against terrorists seriously.
