Invasion of the Body Snatchers
Charles Johnson points us to this report in which Ian Blair, London’s chief of police, remarked to a conference on Islamophobia on the subject of the London bombing “suspects”:
“One of the really shocking things … is the apparent speed with which young, reasonably affluent, some reasonably well-educated, British-born people were converted,” police chief Ian Blair told a conference on Islamophobia.
He said the suspects had been converted “from what would appear to be ordinary lives in a matter of some weeks and months, not years, to a position where they were allegedly prepared to commit suicide and murder thousands of people”.
I don’t know why, but this sounds like early and mid-20th Century anti-Communist rhetoric with its quasi-demoniacal explanations of infiltrations and sudden blossomings among the impressionable youth at home.
Of course, we all know now that the so-called menace of the Communist ideology was just a trumped-up ploy foisted on the world by the capitalists. It was a “menace” that never enslaved hundreds of millions, nor waged wars of foreign conquest or internal subjugation. And it never laid siege to human nature —that dreams of individual rights, privileges, and achievements— by imposing a false egalitarianism and real nihilism upon its own citizens.
I guess what I’m trying to say is that we should always listen to the liberals. They’re so much smarter than the rest of us. They know that war never solved any problem that getting on one’s knees would have done for free. After all, when their self-loathing and loathesome ego-complexes become rattled by the reaction that normal Americans around them have to slave ideologies like Communism and Islamofascism, their only recourse is to embrace and manifest the worse qualities of our enemies, having no native sense of patriotism or gratitude to rely on among themselves. But that’s the lot of the cocksucker: you are what you eat.
