Exactly: ‘The surveillance scandal is a direct result of our national denial about jihad’

Robert Spencer:

This surveillance scandal arises out of our national bipartisan unwillingness to face the reality of Islamic jihad.

Because we all agree that Islam is a religion of peace, we can’t possibly address where the threat is really coming from, and monitor mosques or subject Muslims with Islamic supremacist ties to greater surveillance.

Instead, we have to pretend that anyone and everyone is a potential terrorist, and surveil everyone.

Our freedoms and privacy are now at risk because of our refusal to admit the truth about Islam.
