Radical Islamic front group CAIR is freaking out again, because a general said it was “fun to shoot” jihadis: Muslims Call For Pentagon Action Over General’s Remarks.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 3 /PRNewswire/ — The Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) today called on the Pentagon to discipline a top general who earlier this week said it is “fun to shoot some people.”

At a public event in San Diego, Calif., Lt. Gen. James Mattis said:

“Actually, it’s a lot of fun to fight. You know, it’s a hell of a hoot … You go into Afghanistan, you got guys who slap women around for five years because they didn’t wear a veil. You know, guys like that ain’t got no manhood left anyway. So it’s a hell of a lot of fun to shoot them.” The audience applauded the general’s remarks.

Mattis leads the 1st Marine Division in Iraq. He is based in Quantico, Va.

“We do not need generals who treat the grim business of war as a sporting event,” said CAIR Executive Director Nihad Awad. “These disturbing remarks are indicative of an apparent indifference to the value of human life.” Awad urged that “appropriate disciplinary action” be taken against Gen. Mattis.

CAIR, America’s largest Muslim civil liberties group, has 31 offices and chapters nationwide and in Canada. Its mission is to enhance understanding of Islam, encourage dialogue, protect civil liberties, empower American Muslims, and build coalitions that promote justice and mutual understanding.

It’s mission is also to run interference for Saudi Arabia’s extremist Wahhabi agenda. Far from “encouraging dialog,” their goal is to stop all criticism of Islam by exploiting the weak-minded multiculturalism of the West.

General Mattis was very clearly saying that it is “fun” to shoot people who deserve to be shot—i.e., radical Islamic fascists who abuse women. Good for him.
