Irony at its best [Archive] - ForumsHQ

This is the official release from the administration on why the term "islamic facist" represents our enemy in this war:



In seeking to explain the term, the White House referred to comments made last week by homeland security adviser Fran Townsend.

At a news conference, Townsend said, "What the President was trying to capture was this idea of using violence to achieve ideological ends - and that's wrong. Regardless of what label you pin on it, it is this form of radical extremism that really wants to deny people freedom and impose a totalitarian vision of society on everyone, that we object to."



Note the first part "What the President was trying to capture was this idea of using violence to achieve ideological ends - and that's wrong."



Is that not what "Operation: Iraqi Freedom" is all about?



Does anyone else see the irony in this?

Or mabey violence is ok as long as it forwards our own ideology?
