Crocodile tears from the parents of Jihad Jamie?
<a href="http://errortheory.blogspot.com/2010/03/crocodile-tears-from-parents-of-jihad.html">Alec
Rawls</a> noticed something not quite right about Jihad Jamie's mother and
father. Compare these two snippets from their <em>Wall Street Journal</em> <a
href="http://online.wsj.com/article/SB10001424052748704131404575118103199708576.html">interview</a>:<blockquote>Ms.
Paulin-Ramirez's interest in Islam "came out of left field," said her mother,
Christine Holcomb-Mott, in an interview at her home Friday, wearing a blue
sweatsuit with a silver cross around her neck.</blockquote>How out of left
field?<blockquote>Mr. Mott, a convert to Islam himself, says he went to Denver
to find his stepdaughter but couldn't track her down.</blockquote>This woman is
married to a Muslim, but neither she nor her husband can grok where in the world
their murder-plotting daughter/step-daughter ever got exposed to this worrisome
religion that subducts so many of its followers into terrorism.
Their disgust at daughter Jamie <em>sounds</em> sincere, but their blatant
dishonesty about how she could have gotten interested in Islam suggests
otherwise. It is possible, however, that the <em>Journal</em>'s paraphrase is
not precise. If put on the spot, Holcomb-Mott would likely clarify that she has
no idea how her daughter ever got interested in <em>murder-cult</em> Islam.
There is a way that this could actually happen: if Mr. Mott is some kind of
multiculturalist do-gooder who converted to Islam in sympathy with the idea that
"Islam was hijacked too" on 9/11. Such a person could have converted without
comprehending the well established Islamic pedigree of violent aggressive jihad.
Don't scoff. This same "Islam is a victim too" sentiment is right now allowing a
<a href="http://www.crescentofbetrayal.com/VerifyingMeccaOrientation.htm">giant
Mecca oriented crescent</a> to be built on the Flight 93 crash site. After all,
it would just be too horrible to reject the Crescent of Embrace memorial simply
because it is in the shape of a giant Islamic crescent, not when Islam itself
was amongst the victims on that terrible day. No, we must do the opposite and <em>embrace</em>
Islam.
If Mott is thinking the same way, he has hardly gone any further than the
Memorial Project. But then it seems that his step daughter took one step further
still and actually read the Koran, with its endless commands to slaughter the
unbelievers. Thus did an unhappy misfit finally find a home for the vicious
vindictiveness that the religion of her birth had kept in check.
