I do not support terrorists.
I support a person’s right not to be accused of being a terrorist because of their religion, race or country.
I support facts. This is not about political correctness or lefties or softies. It’s about facts:
- Terrorists cannot be profiled solely by religion, race or country.
- Terrorists wield religion or ideology as a marketing tool, as propaganda, to recruit people to their cause. They are selling a dream… always at the expense of others.
- Terrorists’ goal is to propagate fear and hatred to alter the status quo towards their own ends.
- History has shown over and over that any religion and any ideology can be used to create and to feed fear and hatred.
- Even if terrorists’ goal is a religious government, not all people who follow that religion are automatically terrorists. (Reconstruction Theology in the U.S. calls for the creation of a Christian theocratic government, it has links to paramilitary training camps, and Oklahoma City bomber Timothy McVeigh had ties to both. That does not make all Christians terrorists.)
I do not support people who propagate hatred and fear – on whichever side they may be.
Hatred and fear beget more hatred and fear and division. Hatred and fear serve no one… except the terrorists.
I do not support terrorists.
It’s okay to be afraid… but I won’t let fear lead my heart. #fearwontleadmyheart
