Make Way for the Apologists

And here come all the apologists with the excuses, cries of racism, and all manner of reasons and whys and wherefores for a mohammedan terrorist who shot up Ft.Hood.
He was picked on, he is crazy, he isn't himself, he never would have done this if America were not so evil, he can't be held accountable and on and on. The list of reasons that people will give will be endless.
Some will just thrash about and hit out at anyone who suggests this is part of the arab world's on going terror campaign on the west. They will hit out at anyone suggesting that Hasan is a bad man too.

Many will make this an excuse for yet more Jew hating, more America hating. All of the mental midgets will be out and about even though there isn't a full moon!

Why do these types come out and seethe with anger when things like this happen.
Not anger at the shooter. Not anger at the terror that has launched the world into chaos in the last few decades but anger at America, and the right. Anger at anyone but the perpetrator.

The answer is very simple and plain and will cause even more anger, but it is the simple truth.
Apologists for evil are themselves evil, or at the very least see their own potential for it. You might not see it in them, but they know they are. They live with themselves and know the inner workings of their own heart and mind and it is evil beyond anything you can realize.

Jeremiah says, "The heart is deceitful above all things, and desperately wicked: who can know it?"
They see the degradation of their own heart and know their own capacity for evil and so they need to watch their own backs.
Surely, they reckon, if I am merciful to the evil, then when my day of reckoning comes the world will be merciful and understanding to me also.
They can put themselves into the shoes of the shooter. They understand him. They "get" his deep irrational anger and hatreds because they share those emotions with him. They might be more controlled right now, but they do understand these men and women very well.
They are able to walk in his shoes and understand evil.

Daniel says that in the latter days a man of great evil will come about who "understands dark sayings".
"And in the latter time of their kingdom, when the transgressors have reached their fullness, there shall stand up a king of fierce countenance, and understanding dark sayings" Daniel 8
Fierce countenance means a hard person who "gets" what evil is all about. This is one who isn't afraid to use evil to his own advantage. And note that it's a time when transgressors have multiplied in the world. He doesn't come out of a vacuum, he comes out of a time when transgressors are common , excused and pitied.


Throughout the centuries evil men prospered because the average Joe kind of understood where the evil guy was coming from and was able to make excuses for the wrong doing.
The thinking goes that it is okay to be bad if you are pushed or annoyed or driven to it.
So, even if there is nothing driving the evil, the apologists must look for something, anything that somehow mitigates what was done. It must be someone else's fault. They can never allow personal responsibility to enter the mix because someday it might come down to them.
People hanging onto their own emotional darkness by a thread feel a deep need to protect others who slide over the edge. They can and do indentify with evil and hatred.



The apologists for evil demand to be heard.
After all their very life depends on it! Their own future judgement is riding on their ability to be heard and understood.
They put up comments all over the net on why you cannot judge what was done at Ft Hood, why you must understand and why you must let it go because of x, y and z.
The anti-semites are out from under the rocks too to use this to their advantage also. They don't grieve for what was done so much as they love that it once again offers them a seal of approval on their own weird agenda somehow. For instance the comment by one neo nazi type to the effect of "don't you Jews say anything about Muslims because you are the same kind of creeps and you're day is coming too, you traitors!".
Ugly and weird and of course, they "accuse" everyone of being a "Jew" at these times whether they are or not. It's kind of funny as well as odd. Even mohammedans become "Jews" to them.
They don't actually care about the slaughter at Ft Hood, they only care about having an excuse to unleash their inner creep.


The Upshot?
Nothing will be done to stop men like this Hasan guy because everyone will just hang out on the virtual street corner name calling, accusing others while excusing the wrong doer.
People are so eager to cover over their own sin,so that in the end , sin is allowed to prosper and grow.

You have to feed the monster to keep it alive after all.
