The Media Elite: Comparing Radical Islam and Conservative Christianity

    Someone please tell me, in a contemporary context, how it is fair, rational and truthful that "Radical" Islamists (note: a subset of Islam) can be compared and equated with "'Conservative' Christians" – defined ostensibly as: "any Christian who disagrees with any of the big ticket items on the Leftist Liberal Agenda?" This equation has been made by the likes of Bob Shieffer from CBS and Andersen Cooper [Hasan – "Conservative"]from CNN, in their defense of Major Nidal Hasan, the Fort Hood Terrorist. If you are a Conservative Christian, this new development, ironically enough should "terrify" you. Here is a clear, intentional and deeply nefarious connection being made by the Elite Media.

    In deference to Mr. Sheiffer ["Christianity has nuts too"], I am not aware historically, of any Conservative Christians who have regularly, over the years, been fitted with vests loaded with plastic explosives designed to blast apart helpless noncombatants, women and children and/or who insidiously creep into helpless, trusting and unsuspecting crowds laden with loaded pistols, mowing them down while shouting "Allahu Akbar!" [God is Great!]. This kind of equitable comparison made by the Elite Media is neither credible, honorable nor intellectually honest. Truth is not the same as ideology.

Dear Mr. Rich,
I'm not defending any suicider bombers but what would you say about American invasion of Iraq and Afghanistan and killing thousands of innocent people, without any involvement of an Iraqi or Afghan national in the poorly planned demolishing of World Trade Centre?
