Attorney General Eric Holder told Chuck Todd on Meet the Press on Sunday that the US was “at war with terrorists.”
But Holder would not call it “Islamic terrorism.”
Chuck Todd: the French Prime Minister today declared the France is at war with radical Islam. Would you say the United States is at war with radical Islam?
Eric Holder: Well, I would say we are at war with terrorists who commit these heinous acts. Who use Islam. Who use a corrupted version of Islam to justify their actions. We are bound and determined to hold them accountable. To find which ways we prevent young people who become attracted to this radical ideology, becoming members of these groups and perpetrating these heinous acts.
Holder made similar comments with George Stephanopoulos.
Stephanopoulos: France says it is at war with radical Islam. Is the US at war with radical Islam?
Eric Holder: Well, I certainly think that we are at war with those who would commit terrorist attacks.
Wow.
Don’t let truth slap you in the face, Eric.
Even the French declared war on radical Islam this week… But not our Obama Administration.
That would not be politically correct.
Barack Obama will hold an international summit on terrorism… but not Islamic terrorism.
Just terrorism in general that threatens Western society.
