Why do liberals support radically conservative Islamic states?

C D :

So liberals are obviously leftist by definition of the political spectrum. If you’re intellectually honest, then you have to admit the state sponsors of terrorism are actually extreme right in their reactionary views to keep their countries centuries behind the rest of the Progressive movement (women’s rights, voters’ rights, legal system, secularization, etc.). So why do the Liberals act like Ahmadinejad is their best friend? Is it just their hatred of the current administration?
a few examples:

Liberals hold Support Palestine rallies vice supporting the only functioning democracy in the middle east, Israel;

Liberals often deny the War on Terror’s necessity, and often echo Michael Moore’s thoughts that 9/11 was either a conspiracy or such a rarity that chances are: he has nothing to worry about;

the ACLU sued an airport recently to establish prayer rooms for only Muslims so that they can honor their prayer schedule, but seek to eliminate prayer and any religious themed articles from every other part of public life…
Dingdong, quite the appropriate name for someone with answers like that… listing a bunch of countries is not providing any evidence of state-sponsored terrorism. You must not understand the word if you think that any actions by the United States are terrorism…
I don’t think it’s senseless to question why those with a purported leftist ideology would support the causes of patently extreme rightists…
Personally, I consider myself libertarian as I am ideologically opposed to the fundamental premise of government controlling anything… Is that the “only valid” spectrum because you say so? The 1-d “political” spectrum is based on the presupposition that government exists and therefore anarchy and libertarians are outside of that spectrum. The political spectrum has socialist communism on one end and fascism on the other. The far left is called “Radical” and the far right is called “Reactionary.” In calling them “radical conservative,” I used the more banal term radical meaning extreme, not politically Radical. If you redefine the spectrum to 2-d with room for anarchy and libertarians, then you’d have the Pournelle Chart… Since you apparently aren’t familiar with the many different spectra out there, here’s a link to start your research: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Political_spectrum
Fester, if you actually READ what I wrote, wikipedia was not my source at all… It was a recommendation as a start for researching political spectra…

Your last sentence says it all; “The enemy of my enemy is my friend.”

ya the last part of your question answers it all, let me tell you that liberals want power and money. They see how others do it and follow them and it seems to work.

No country in modern times has sponsored more state terrorism than the US. Columbia, Bolivia, Cuba, Afghanistan, Nicaragua, Philipines, Palestine, Iraq (pre invasion) Somalia, Grenada. I could go on but i`ll spare you the boredom.
Yes i do understand the word.
Arming the opposition forces of a democratically elected government and supplyiong them with the resources to act out a military coup is terrorism by any definition you want to find, my friend. This is precicely what the holier- than- thou United States has done for decades. Don`t kid youself, the US is the biggest protagonist in terrorism anywhere on earth.

They were born ‘useful idiots’, and they will die ‘useful idiots’. The only question is which anti-American group they will die for.

Radical left also reduces rights, like freedom of religion and freedom of press, and speech, and etc. Radical is radical, the terrorists may be radical left, idk.

kingstubborn

Yes, it must be their hatred of the US, because conservative Islam is pro-life, anti-porn, pro family, anti-drug and is more consistent with conservative Christian causes than liberalism is.

hubie

because they do not think. they just follow their leaders.this plays right into the hands of Ahmadabad who wants to use nuclear weapons to destroy usa and isreal,the liberals should wake up before its too late
