HIS SAY: ED CLINE: A COMMENT ON THE MIDDLE EAST’S NEW ACTION HERO AND ISLAM
Neither King Abdullah of Jordan, nor the new King of Saudi Arabia, nor any other Mideast tyrant has “renounced” Islam. They simply repeat what Western politicians and the MSM have been saying ad infinitum and what Islamic spokesmen in the West have been telling the West, that ISIS’s actions and barbarity have nothing to do with Islam. They deny it even when the perpetrators quote Koranic chapter and verse to sanction their actions. I do wish people would stop being so desperate to see some forthright action against ISIS that they’re willing to see what isn’t there. Abdullah’s actions have a three-fold purpose: to salvage Islam in the eyes of the world by making a false distinction between his version of Islam and that practiced by ISIS, when in fact the distinction is illusory; to engage in an Arabic “blood feud,” a practice that goes back at least 14 centuries or more; and to save his kingdom from ISIS, which menaces his reign.
