No, my title does not refer to a new, overpriced offering at Starbuck's, but rather to a term I developed many years ago to describe a subcultural phenomenon for which, as far as I know, no word had been designated -- the phenomenon, namely, of those "in the Counter-Jihad" who still retain, to one annoying (if not imperiling) degree or another, reflexes and instincts of politically correct multi-culturalism.
Today's single shot comes from Le Café Spencer along with a mazurka of tough nougat:
Editorializing on a recent news story --
“On Sunday night, a man identified as Mahad Abdiaziz Abdirahman, 20, of Minneapolis stabbed two men at the Mall of America after they tried to stop him from stealing clothes inside the dressing room at Macy’s.”
Robert Spencer of Jihad Watch wrote:
I didn’t post about this incident here at Jihad Watch because, contrary to false claims, this is not “Muslims Committing Crimes Watch,” it is Jihad Watch, and there was no indication that this stabber was on a jihad.
A very interesting parenthetical remark there (though pretty much unsurprising, to someone who has been paying attention over the years to Spencer's seemingly incoherent ambiguity about the problem of Islam). Another bit of evidence (to add to the mountain of coffeebeans) indicating Spencer conceives of -- or, perhaps worse, routinely articulates for the public -- the problem of Islam as a problem only of a Minority (Tiny? Small? As Large as a Pipes Dream? A Wee Bit Larger But Still Not the Majority? "Not all Muslims, or even a majority"...? We'll never know for certain, apparently) of "Jihadists", not of all Muslims embodying in a wondrous diversity Islam's inherent expansionism.
