So sayeth Ambassador Pickering, Hillary Clinton’s appointee to head the “Accountability Review Board.” Ambassador Pickering is tasked with getting the facts straight (after the election) about what happened in Benghazi and where accountability resides.

According to Ambassador Pickering, in remarks he made during an Oct. 23 panel discussion at the National Cathedral in Washington, D.C., America is a seething hotbed of “Islamophobia,” filled with ignorant racist rubes who irrationally fear the benign Muslim religion. Of course, he couched his message in diplomatese. “Ignorant rubes,” in diplomatese, becomes “[d]ata shows that those Americans who do not know Muslims, who do not know much about Islam, are the ones who harbor the greatest feelings of prejudice.”

So we can see that Hillary appointed a man who comes into the investigation with an open mind and without preconceived scapegoats.

The real stupefying bafflement in all this is how someone with the experience and acumen of an ambassador can believe such suicidal pap. It is like battered wife syndrome, in which the wife believes that it is somehow her fault. The brutal behavior of her husband is really love gone awry because of her failings. For Pickering, Islam is a religion of peace, and all the hate, outrage, and violence rained down upon us just proves that it is our fault. It is a strange, malignant, suicidal idée fixe that controls his mind (and Hillary’s and Obama’s?) no matter what transpires.

The evidence is overwhelming. Fourteen hundred years of Islamic brutal suppression, domination, and enslavement of all non-Islamic cultures in North Africa and the Near East and even the Balkans means nothing. The hate-filled spewing from imams, mullahs and ayatollahs from mosques all over the world means nothing.

A just recently published 70-minute documentary entitled The Grand Deception, produced by award-winning journalist Steve Emerson, shows how the radical Brotherhood’s tentacles have reached deep inside the U.S. political system over the past few decades. Emerson was able to obtain footage of the leaders of the peace-loving Brotherhood speaking candidly behind closed doors. While Brotherhood representatives dupe the Clinton-Obama team with assurances of commitment to religious freedom, democracy, rule of law, and pluralism, behind their backs they snicker at Western values and consider it all “garbage.” The Emerson footage showed them praying in Congress or breaking bread in the White House as “peace-loving moderates,” then revealed them just days later, damning America and calling for violent jihad against us and our allies.

The Clintonites and Pickeringites are so far gone in what one author calls the “Benghazi-Oslo Syndrome” that even forced viewing wouldn’t dent their bulletproof mental blinders. The zombie Islamodupes need to be run out of town.
