King of Jordan is tearing shite up. Our president is bringing up shite that happened long ago to make Islamic extremists look like decent guys

Meant to type King of Jordan. But yes, you are correct

It's all good. Just another body. We will continue on as though nothing happened.

I dont mean to sound insensitive, but what was she doing over there?

I'm by no means an Obama fan but how is he making them look like decent guys? The crusaders weren't decent

He tried justifying what they're doing by saying "hey look, the Christians did it too!"

Something stupid with Syria, I don't really remember, but she was attempting to be some sort of activist.

No, he pointed out that terrorists exploit religion. People have always used religion to justify bad deeds. Nothing new, nothing factually inaccurate. He wasn't justifying their actions.

No.
You completely missed his point.

OBAMA FAULTS MEDIA HYPE FOR TERROR FEARS
The Hill: “The news media ‘absolutely’ overstates the risks of terrorism because stories about things like climate change aren’t ‘sexy’ and don’t drive ratings, President Obama said in an interview published Monday. ‘What's the famous saying about local newscasts, right? If it bleeds, it leads, right?’ Obama told Vox. ‘You show crime stories and you show fires, because that's what folks watch, and it's all about ratings. And, you know, the problems of terrorism and dysfunction and chaos, along with plane crashes and a few other things, that's the equivalent when it comes to covering international affairs.’
Obama said there was not going to be ‘a lot of interest’ in stories showing positive progress on issues like infant mortality or improving productivity for farmers. ‘It's not a sexy story,’ Obama said. ‘And climate change is one that is happening at such a broad scale and at such a complex system, it's a hard story for the media to tell on a day-to-day basis.’”
Is this guy for real??

No, he did not.
He pointed out that at various times, certain atrocities have been carried out in the name of Jesus. This is undeniable. He also pointed out that these acts should not be used to paint all Christians in a negative light. Also true.
Then he pointed out that since that line of thinking holds for Christianity, it should also hold for Islam. On that we can debate.
No need to lie to get your point across.

Justify was the wrong word, but what he said was extremely ignorant.

This. It is puzzling why any Americans would venture to that part of the world.

You're the one coming across as ignorant, honestly. You sound like my dad, who watches Fox News 24/7.

I wasn't aware that infant mortality and crop production in the United States were anywhere close to being issues that needed attention...oh...because they aren't.
And yeah, if she went to Syria as an activist, she pretty much deserved it. Sorry. Zero sympathy.
