Partial News

Andrew McCarthy discusses the reluctance of the lefty media to identify the Canadian men under investigation for terrorism:
Consequently, the piece of information most obviously pertinent to the public’s understanding of what could be catalyzing this global savagery is consciously withheld. Such a revelation might, after all, lead people to ask the sensible question: What is it about Islam that makes it such a fertile breeding ground for this pathology?
The answer seems to be radical clerics who teach that Muslims have a duty of conquest of the rest of mankind. Many of these have been set up in business here with Saudi money and preach the radical Wahhabbi brand of Islam which is the state religion of Saudi Arabia. I think we would consider deporting them.

Christians have a doctrine that someday, "every head shall bow, every knee shall bend" to Jesus Christ, but not because Christians go to war against everyone else. They believe that he will return in power and glory sufficient to overwhelm all doubt or denial. My question to Muslims would be, if Allah is so mighty and powerful, why does he need these crazed young men to do what he could easily do himself?

In any event, the unwillingness of our major media to acknowledge this obvious common denominator, is not in keeping with the goals espoused by journalism and to the extent it withholds key information from readers is a kind of fraud, especially from a newspaper that promises "All the news that's fit to print."
