According to news reports, one Abdulhakim Mujahid Muhammad, 23, described as a man with “political and religious motives,” murdered a soldier  and wounded another on Monday in “a targeted attack on a military recruiting center.” Obviously, this is the work of Ariana Huffington (“Huffington Post”) and Markos Moulitsas (“Daily Kos”), the sponsors of left-wing Web sites which feature anti-military rhetoric on a regular basis.

Now I know that the left-wing loons are going to deny the connection.  They will say that there is “no evidence” that there was any connection between Muhammad and Huffington or Moulitsas.  They will claim that HuffPo and Daily Kos are merely engaging in freedom of speech and freedom of the press on matters of public importance, as is their right. These are obviously pretexts to deny real responsibility.

After all, when abortionist George Tiller was murdered on Sunday by a lone gunman with a history of mental illness, HuffPo and Kos immediately sponsored articles laying the blame for that murder on conservatives such as Bill O’Reilly and the anti-abortion movement in general – - despite the lack of any evidence of such a connection between the killer and O’Reilly et al., who were engaging in freedom of speech and freedom of the press on matters of public importance, as is their right.

Or were the HuffPo, Kos, and other leftist writers merely exploiting a tragic crime for political gain?

If not, where is the left-wing outrage? Why is Eric Holder not dispatching troops to guard military recruiting centers? Is the life of a soldier worth less than the life of an abortionist? Is my priest a terrorist when he refers to abortion as “the killing of babies?” Should I be detained because I agree that late-term abortions are homicides? Or because I condemn the murder of young soldiers because they are wearing the uniform?

Or are the people posting on Huffington Post and Daily Kos simply political lunatics?

MEMO to anti-abortion activists: stop apologizing for yourselves; stop fretting about the lunatic accusations that the pro-life movement spawned a murderer.  All you have to say is that anyone who says that the anti-abortion movement sponsored or condoned the murder of Dr. Tiller is either deranged or lying. Period.
