Here is a man who has been thoroughly indoctrinated. He has been told all his life that it is “hate” to discuss the motivating ideology behind the attacks that murdered his father. This has been the strategy of the Hamas-linked Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) and other Muslim and leftist groups since 9/11: tar the entire discussion of the jihad ideology as an exercise in “racism,” “bigotry” and “Islamophobia,” and dismiss it accordingly. This has been particularly true regarding any and all discussion of Islamic supremacism, and of the nonviolent efforts to bring Sharia to the U.S. This young man is evidently not very thoughtful, and never attempted to look beyond the cant and propaganda he was being fed. He cannot, however, be too harshly criticized; after all, as the son of a jihad murder victim, he might have become an effective and powerful voice against jihad violence and Sharia oppression of women and others. So extra efforts were likely made in order to ensure that he didn’t develop any independent thoughts.

His heart might be in the right place but his brain certainly isn’t. I didn’t mean that in a nasty way because this poor man has been through so much, but he is obviously still clueless about islam. To tell the truth about islam and it’s true intentions, is not spreading hate, it’s spreading honesty.
