The recent attacks on our embassies in Egypt and Libya, including the murder of four Americans, are a continuing example of the intentional bullying by Islamic jihadists. America has willingly accepted a victim status and has attempted to please the bullies by refusing to acknowledge the real identity of the savage attackers as Islamists.

Even after the Twin Towers attack in 2001, when it was obvious the attacks were controlled and executed by radical Islamists, our government refused to acknowledge the true perpetrators and claimed they were merely terrorists.

The government continued to support the false belief that Islam was a religion of peace. Nothing could be more misleading.

Islam is a vicious religion that supports the murdering of Christians, honor killings of their own women at the slightest provocation, and the random murdering of civilians at the slightest alleged defamation of Muhammad.

Hillary Clinton, the secretary of state, continues to spread misinformation by referring to "a small savage group" and "a senseless act of violence." She refuses to acknowledge radical Islamists as the real perpetrators.

Radical Islam is the real worldwide threat. We had better soon wake up to this reality.
