[QUOTE]Originally posted by Jay the Obscure: [QB] Or more of "The USA's Bonkers Wing." The right wing talking head in question here is Ann Coulter, who appears quite often on that fair and balanced Fox News Channel. Coulter wrote the following opinion piece which you can read in full [URL=http://dailynews.yahoo.com/h/ucac/20010927/cm/future_widows_of_america_write_your_congressman_1.html]here[/URL]. I'll just give you some of the more anger inducing highlights...and those parts not weighted down by actual facts: [QUOTE] Not all Muslims may be terrorists, but all terrorists are Muslims -- at least all terrorists capable of assembling a murderous plot against America that leaves 7,000 people dead in under two hours.[/QUOTE] What they hell is she talking about? This is jingoistic, it's bigoted, and it wrong. Tim McVeigh anyone? Does the name of our own little home grown terrorist ring a bell? [QUOTE]It is impossible to stop Islamic fundamentalists who believe that slaughtering thousands of innocent Americans will send them straight to Allah. All we can do is politely ask aliens from suspect nations to leave -- with the full expectation of readmittance -- while we sort the peace-loving immigrants from the murderous fanatics. More benefits of the plan next week, but the beauty part of the Terrorist Deportation Plan can't wait. There will be two fail-safes: (1) Muslim immigrants who agree to spy on the millions of Muslim citizens unaffected by the deportation order can stay; and (2) any Muslim immigrant who gets a U.S. senator to waive his deportation -- by name -- gets to stay.[/QUOTE] In other words, round up Muslims and deport them. Or if you are willing to spy you can stay. Well, [i]there's[/i] a good plan. Afterall, isn't rounding up people based solely on race, sex or religion a rather un-American thing to do? Still doesn't the fact that the United States did something similar during World War II to people of Japanese heritage mean anything? Afterall, we were wrong to do that. No says Ann! [QUOTE]Pious invocations of the Japanese internment are absurd. For one thing, those were U.S. citizens. Citizens can't be deported. So far -- thank God -- almost all the mass murderers of Americans have been aliens.[/QUOTE] Ok, that's so wrong. She either outright made it up or is unfathomably ignorant of history. We only locked up citizens? Horse crap. 1) First generation persons living in America of Japanese heritage who were not allowed to become American citizens. Only the children born in America of parents who emigrated from Japan were American citizens. 2) Hundreds, if not thousands, of persons of Japanese descent from Peru were shipped to the United States and interned. Incensed? Angered? Enraged? All the above? You should be. [/QB][/QUOTE]
