The statement below by a US Attorney-general has to be the most bone-headed, ignorant, silly, pusillanimous, pathetic, obsequious, disingenuous, snivelling, lying and plain dangerous that anyone in the Obama administration has uttered in a looong time.
It's in relation to what and who the US is fighting. Don't forget they're in a war. The statement refuses to acknowledge the plainest facts of Islam that are explicit and crystal-clear in the doctrine and teachings of the faith.
Here it is, the statement by US attorney for Oregon Dwight Holton, about training of US law enforcement people in the ways of the terrorist. Way to go, Dwight (not):
Sam Harris says that anyone believing Islam is a "religion of peace" is deluded.
Holton is deluded, and plain wrong, when he says that it does not have a "tendency towards violence".
There is no more violent religion on earth!
It's so clear in the writings of Islam that when you first read them you're slammed in the face like with a wet fish. Slam! I-slam.
"The problems with Islamic fundamentalism are the fundamentals of Islam". Sam Harris, here.
The statements quoted may or may not be offensive. Either way, it is irrelevant if they are the truth. If the truth hurts, so what? Are we to make foreign policy on the back of people "feelings"??
The statements quoted may or may not be contrary to "what this president..stands for", but again, this is irrelevant, if what he stand for is the whitewashing, the plain lying, about Islam. And that's what he does indeed stand for in all the statements and actions he has taken since his infamous Cairo speech in June last year.

“I want to be perfectly clear about this: training materials that portray Islam as a religion of violence or with a tendency towards violence are wrong, they are offensive, and they are contrary to everything that this president, this attorney general and Department of Justice stands for,” Holton said Wednesday. “They will not be tolerated.” [*]Read the article in full here.
