Overseas Contingency Operation?
On September 11, 2001 our nation was blindsided and brutally attacked by Islamic extremist. These radicals filled with hatred and envy of the American way hijacked four planes in a desperate attempt to murder the lives of hundreds of Americans. In recent times, our media and President Obama has failed to call this jihad as it is. President Obama called the war an “overseas contingency operation,” disconnected from the religion-based motivations of the terrorists. Obama is wrong to not recognize that this war is an expression of Jihad and is therefore a religious cause for which the Islamic radicals are happy to die for. One month after the attacks on September 11, Osama Bin Laden made sure the world understood that the United States was not simply up against a determined enemy, but an enemy whose determination was rooted in their religious convictions. It was November 2001 when he praised the 9/11 hijackers then said: “The nature of…this war is fundamentally religious.” When a leader like Osama Bin Laden is pronouncing this war as a religious based to the Americans and all its followers, our media is responsible to portray just that. The media and our President Obama must explain to the Americans that our enemy believes they are fighting for a better good, which is telling them to destroy our culture. We cannot take them lightly and must do whatever it takes to disarm and defeat them.
