By having one of his surrogates out there saying the “Muslims are going to kill us all“:
One of John McCain’s fellow POW’s in Vietnam defended the war in Iraq, saying, “The Muslims have said either we kneel or they’re going to kill us.”
In a phone call with reporters arranged by the McCain campaign, Colonel Bud Day added: “I don’t intend to kneel and I don’t advocate to anybody that we kneel, and John doesn’t advocate to anybody that we kneel.”
Muslim leaders have complained that they have been villified as terrorists since the Sept. 11 attacks.
The Republicans are bound and determined to turn this whole thing into a holy war. Bud Day is another example of right wing hysteria surrounding Muslims, and should heed a strong warning against the future if McCain becomes our next President.
It also shows why so many Muslim leaders support Obama for President. Obama doesn’t spew this hatred out, nor believe it, like McCain and his ilk. Besides, if we really believed that and ended up wining a war against all Muslims, what religion would be next? I’m sure we would find someone to go after.
