Hillary Clinton: I’m willing to call Orlando attack ‘radical Islamism’

100% recycled karma
From my perspective, it matters what we do more than what we say,” the presumptive Democratic nominee said in a CNN interview. “And it mattered we got bin Laden, not what name we called him. I have clearly said we — whether you call it ‘radical jihadism’ or ‘radical Islamism’ — I’m happy to say either. I think they mean the same thing.”
they do. bin Laden has little to do with contemporary war on terror.I
It's a long done deal - the war goes on

Presumptive GOP nominee Donald Trump blasted both President Obama and Clinton for not immediately calling Sunday morning’s mass shooting at a gay nightclub in Orlando an act of “radical Islam.” The attack, which left 50 dead, is the deadliest act of terror on U.S. soil since 9/11. Based on that omission, Trump called on Obama to step down from office and for Clinton to exit the race. In a Monday morning CBS interview, he said Clinton won’t use the term because she’s afraid of Obama’s Justice Department.
yet she didn't use the Islamic term. hasn't ever to my knowledge -but she wants to say she will so it'snot a political liability.
Obama's reasoning??? WTF cares anymore

Both Clinton and Obama called the attack an act of terror and hate but stopped short of connecting it to “radical Islam” in their initial statements. Authorities have said the attacker declared his allegiance to ISIS when he started shooting, but it’s unclear if he’d had any contact with the group or if they helped him plan the attack
lone wolf.

BINGO
it's one event in a Long War..The template for the continual war is what matters..
Why is she changing her position?

More importantly how do we push back on propaganda?
 
Game changer! We're sure to beat them now.

Everyone knows that it's all in the wording.
Ignorance..why cling to a false paradigm?
I have read for ex. that some mosque investigations are held back because of a deferral to Islamic feelings.
some new book.i'll look for it

It's also a matter of dedicating resources.. and we saw what happened when Obama called it "JV"
while letting ISIS advance in uncontested territory.

It's most definitely not a true discussion of religion as the driving/common force of Islamic terrorism..
Hit back on it as a warped interpretation. But you can't do that until you identify it as religious terrorism..
 
Orlando gunman who pledged loyalty to ISIS was a ‘homegrown’ extremist, Obama says
https://www.washingtonpost.com/news...-banner:homepage/story&utm_term=.2d3b7f586214

Obama called the shooting a case of
“homegrown extremism” Monday, saying that the gunman appeared to be “inspired by various extremist information that was disseminated over the Internet.”
^ ROFL. homegrown extremism? = nebulous blandishment

We’re working hard to understand the killer, and his motives, and his sources of inspiration,” Comey said during his remarks at the Justice Department. “We’re highly confident that this killer was radicalized, and at least in some part through the Internet.”

^Ok so now we're using "radicalization" .good enough
