Liberals keep perpetuating the idea that we ought to have ’empathy’ for terrorists because somehow they’re victims of their environment.
Earlier today on the BBC, that’s exactly what a former London mayor Ken Livingstone said.

“They did those killings because of our invasion of Iraq. They gave their lives, they said what they believed, they took Londoners’ lives in protest against our invasion of Iraq.”

The Daily Caller reports:

Ken Livingstone, former mayor of London and member of Britain’s Labour Party, excused the terrorists who were part of the 2005 London terrorist attacks and instead blamed then-British Prime Minister Tony Blair.

Appearing on BBC Thursday, Livingstone, who was mayor of London at the time of the attacks, said of the suicide bombers, “Go and look what they put on their website. They did those killings because of our invasion of Iraq. They gave their lives, they said what they believed, they took Londoners’ lives in protest against our invasion of Iraq.”

He added, “and we were lied to by Tony Blair about Iraq, there were no weapons of mass destruction.”

Can you say ‘ISIS sympathizer?’
