Are the Left & Radical Islam About to Get a Divorce?

| 45 Comments

CBS Reporter Lara Logan recently delivered a very blunt speech about the dangers of Radical Islam. Long considered a "liberal", one wonders if her words signal a forthcoming break from the Left's long love affair with the "Religion of Peace" or is she about to be ostracized from the Leftist Group Think cocktail parties?

She is not hard on the eyes, was sexually assaulted by Hajis while on assignment, after some mature reflection, she has figured it out. Too Bad, Too Late.

I guess a brutal beating and gang rape by a bunch of moderate muslims is enough to open lefty eyes to the truth.

I expect she'll be ostracized by the rest of the MSM and the lefty establishment. She may even lose her job. Such treasonous talk is not tollerated by the tollerant left.

One wonders if the CBC wouldn't also benefit from a good stern gang-raping..

I expect a similar backlash against her to what Stacy Dash has experienced as of late with her position of support for Romney / Ryan.

*Samuel Jackson calling her "crazy"

From the looks of her she'd be welcome on FOX, unlike that Juan Williams asshole.

ANY leftist/liberal/feminist who strays off the proverbial reservation ONE centimetre will be pounded with such vitriol that one's eyes sting to read it.

This will happen to Miss Logan.

That's the left for you.

It's tragic that she had to be "mugged" so viciously. It must have been a shattering experience. But it's been said that a conservative is a liberal who's been mugged. Plainly she's made the transition.
I expect she'll be cast out as a heretic by the "open-minded" lefties. But she's calling it as she sees it. As in Europe in the late 1930s with the recognition of fascism for what it was, more and more people are beginning to recognize radical Islam for what it is even amongst its erstwhile apologists. Radical Islam has chosen to fight us and we cannot run from that fight for they will come after us. She recognizes and is willing to state this fact notwithstanding the fact that many prefer not to hear it.

Ostracized.

Ostracized.

Ostracized.

It's tragic that she had to suffer through gang-rape to break the leftist delusion she was living in. Watch her disappear from the spotlight as the leftist idealogues in the MSM react by cutting her time on air or re-assigning her to Benin or Mongolia.

In her role as a journalist covering a war, she discovered some suppressed, unpleasant truths about the enemy.

Her experience reinforced what she had learned from interviewing leaders in Afghanistan.

Though, knowing full well that she risks being blackballed from the "consensus" media, she's taking what she's learned public.

Good for her, she's being both a good journalist and a patriot.

All of America needs to hear her story, preferably before the November vote, too.


DrD nails it; in his comment that "a conservative is a liberal who's been mugged". That's not being biased; it's becoming aware of reality.

If, instead, the story concerned a mother of an unarmed but large black delinquent who'd been gunned down by a person he attacked, then the leftist media wouldn't criticize her campaign to ban guns as being "biased because of a bad experience". Instead, she'd be congratulated for her "courageous stand".

It will be interesting to see what the future of this story will involve. I suspect she'll be ostracized for daring to stray off the reservation. While the prospect of letting a group of islamofascist males take their liberties with female employees of the CBC is attractive, I think that this group of women is so far removed from the real world that we'd likely see another example of the Stockholm syndrome with female reporters appearing in burkas with only their black, swollen, eyes visible.

She will now be metaphorically raped and beaten by her former comrades on the left. God help her.

Ahhhhh.A poor wittle leftie got some truth beat into her.Sympathy is in the dictionary between sh1t and syphillis lady.You backed them,and loved them.Tough titties useful idiot.

She'll be fine. There are ample conservative media in America who would pick up Logan in an instant.

The sad thing here is that it took a brutal sexual assault at the hands of those desparate-for-freedom, hopey-changey-Arab-spring Muslims to unseat the lies she had imbibed about 'moderate' Islam.

And the real hero, if you ask me, the person with the most to lose: 60 Minutes Executive Producer, Jeff Fager.

This guy had the balls to admonish Logan to let the facts lead her to a conclusion instead of going "out to prove a preordained thesis."

This is the fundamental issue at the heart of the current MSM, whom have political and social agendas and only deliver op-ed that matches their predetermined, foregone illiberal conclusions.

BRAVO Logan! BRAVO Fager!

sexually assaulted by Hajis while on assignment,

Ah Yes.

The thoughts of having to walk around dressed in a black Hajis potato sack with holes cut in it for seeing or sex,
no longer appeals to some of our lefty ladies.

If the women of America had to live one week in Saudia Arabia, Libya, put any name here-------- they would be pushing their peace loving boyfriends, husbands, etc. out the doors to go fight these animals..

DrD said: "But it's been said that a conservative is a liberal who's been mugged."

Is that not a neo-conservative? See Irving Kristol, former Trotskyist. See also, David Horowitz, the world's oldest red diaper baby.

Compare Red Tory: "David Cameron claimed:

I am a liberal conservative, rather than a neo-conservative."

I don't see any new forms of totalitarianism out there for the left to latch onto, so I'm not predicting a break between the left and Islam.

To answer this question, merely ask what the Left has done to Sharyl Attkisson of CBS News, who followed up on the original reporting by Mike Vanderboegh, David Codrea, and others to expose the treason of Fast and Furious to a wider audience.

"Taking one for the team" as a foreign correspondent carries a lot of weight for journalists. She has a good rep amongst her colleagues, and is well known as "not just a pretty face" in the field. She has the respect of her profession. The raw video of the Tahir Square assault is pretty brutal. She owes her life to a cluster of Egyptian women who ultimately protected her from the mob. She won't be ostracized by anybody - her cred is too well established, and the msm knows full well she'll eat them alive if they try to hang her out to dry.

She's given the msm a slap upside the head. After Obama's empty podium performance, there's lots of buzz in the backrooms about his ability to do the job. Like most young mothers, she's left of centre, but more centrist than leftist. I'd cut her some slack - she's earned her stripes.

Obama and Company have provided the public service of revealing the Left for what they are.

This is part of the fallout.

There'll be more.

As they used to say, "A conservative is a liberal who's been mugged." Or raped in public in this case. I believe she will be kicked out of the club for this.

Gutsy Lady. Instead of burying the truth of the Savage Islam Empire , or worse joining to this inhuman cause ever more tightly like the graffiti artist in NYC. She has lit a candle to expose the fascists at her own personnel expense, facing the leftists. Knowing she will be pummeled, castigated, called a liar.
People like this should be appluded not a target of the ever compassionate Left. Which ,means tolerance like Islam preaches peace.
We need more folks like her with conviction, even if born of tragedy. At least she recognizes the danger. Not so most Dhimmis.The hero part is understanding this truth that she now talks about. Will cost her dearly.
She deems her Nation with her Countrymen more precious. Its a warning bell that should be heard. Often with all its hard truths about Muslim aspirations of World suzerainty, with its evil system of Sharia.

The answer to your question is no. She's expendable just like every other European female who is gang raped and abused by these savages. There is an agenda to totaly break down western civilization by a very powerful cabal so don't get your hopes up.

After the the gang rape she's about to get from her tolerant-left friends, Whoopi will observe that what she got in Cairo was not rape-rape!

Condoning rape is an affront to our culture and our common humanity.

It's bad enough to have the UN and the religion of pedophiles supporting it.

"The 1,100 in attendance were surprised and even taken aback at how brutally honest the South African native journalist was regarding...

When addressing issues such as the Taliban, Islamic Terrorism, or Sharia law, anything less than brutal honesty is dishonesty.

What Shawn said. Think Alexandra Kollontai and her Bolshevik pals.

This reminds me. For an upcoming Mediterranean cruise we have been warned about what sorts of apparel not to wear when visiting Egypt and Turkey. Nice cultures they have there. But then the left constantly reminds us that all cultures are equal.

I'm afraid I have a real problem with lefties who have to undergo physical abuse in order to experience an epiphany and realize what many of us knew intuitively.

Because something happened to HER, suddenly she understands things that she should have been, (especially given the nature of her employment), clear to her from day one?

I suspect that basically she's still an idiot, but now she's one with a personal axe to grind.

Fearless Leader @ 7:01;
Bang on. Start shipping American and Canadian lefties over to Muslim ruled countries and watch how quickly the tune changes.

I have no ME experience but was on a bus in the Dominican many years ago. These very comfortable Canadians were 'outraged' that the bus driver had driven through this poor area where people were begging. 'I didn't come here to see that'.

And as though on cue:

A very brave young lady who deserves all our support and prayers (whatever our religious affiliation) as she leads a struggle for a better world with a conviction and courage worthy of the heroes of legend.

Re: "As they used to say, "A conservative is a liberal who's been mugged."

That should read: "A conservative is a liberal who's been mugged by reality"

Nothing must ever jeopardize the narrative!

She's out. For sure.

She's out. For sure.

The tragedy of Laura Logan is that she spent so long hating the wrong people. That would be people like ME, the standard issue white North American male.

Very soon she will, as mentioned by many above, get abused and cast out AGAIN by all her former colleagues. Adding insult to the already near-fatal injury.

On the bright side, having experienced the Egyptian's worst she'll laugh out loud at the petty, passive-aggressive spitefulness of America's metrosexual Left. Comical little men puffing and prancing their lies, trying to hide the truth that Laura Logan is a living embodiment of.

Laura Logan is the reason I said the other day that it is kinder to beat a damn-fool Leftist with a 2x4 than it is to laugh at them and walk away. When you walk away they're most likely going to get mugged by people who won't stop at just a bruising.

Not that I would counsel actual -violence- of course. Heavens forfend.

Cyclist. Works either way, I guess.

I concur.

"I suspect that basically she's still an idiot, but now she's one with a personal axe to grind." (Nemo2)

Exactly. For a woman who is accustomed to a certain level of allowance from men due to her appearance to suddenly be reduced to a piece of camel meat ..... Hell hath no fury, etc. She's useful in as much as what she now says it true but she's still an idiot.

Awesome speech. Spoken by one who has been there and done that. Snipe all you want but not one of you armchair pundits here has been there. She's got more balls than all of us put together...particularly since Daniel Pearl's beheading.

I applaud her speech for telling it like it is in regards to ISLAM em masse and in particular the fact that Afganistan has been a loosing proposition since the early 1800's...nothing short of turning it to radioactive glass will change that.

That the Paki's are 100% involved comes as a surprise to anyone...???

This is in fact a war and people had better get used to the fact that these Mother phukers will do anything to destroy the west. From without and from within....PERIOD.

Hey ok, I'm sure that rant sounded teriffic in the original klingon, unfortunately google translate made your rant sound incoherent, could you please post your comment again in english, thank you.

What? The loon again?

The Marxist left is attempting to disrupt life in the civilized West as much as it possibly can. Islamic culture may be the one that is most incompatible with our own; certainly it seems to have little regard for individual rights (although surely there are many living within that culture who would like to escape that dire situation, and who wish to move westward to do that, without necessarily turning their back on their faith, since culture is not exclusively the product of religion).

That's why I contend that the Marxist left is playing the Islamists like a violin. The latter would be discarded like an old rag as soon as they were deemed no longer useful. I also suspect that if Omar Khadr were to declare that all he wanted to do was to settle down, renounce violence, watch some TV, get some schooling and find a good job, the left would drop him like a hot potato, and probably call him a traitor to boot.

But I doubt there is any "divorce" coming until Islam is no longer useful to Marxism. The sudden emergence of one dissenter after an eye-opening trauma won't change that.
