If you don’t already have enough evidence to support the fact that liberalism is a mental disorder, perhaps what you’re about to read will remove all doubt.

Brian Min, a freshman at Columbia University, has authored an editorial saying Belgians deserve to be blamed for Tuesday’s Islamic terrorist attack in Brussels.

Why? Because he claims their society is a front of “Islamophobia.”

In the university’s campus newspaper, the Columbia Daily Spectator, he writes “Columbia’s vigils and memorial services allow us to mourn victims and condemn terrorism. Moving forward, however, they should condemn not only terrorism, but also the specific Islamophobic attitudes and policies that facilitated the recent attacks.”

Min, a freshman planning to study French as well as women, gender, and sexuality studies, argues that the Brussels attack and other terrorist attacks, are “usually not arbitrary events without any justification—they often are responses to institutionalized hate and oppression.”

“Belgium remains the only other country in the world besides France to have a national ban of full-face veils,” Min says. “Employers too often get away with discriminating against Muslim employees. It comes as no surprise that the municipality Molenbeek—the site of one of the explosions—has an unemployment rate of more than 25 percent where the majority of Muslim youths are denied equal access to the labor and housing market.”

“[I]t is not enough for vigils and memorial services to broadly condemn Islamophobia and other forms of hatred that helped breed terrorist attacks,” he says.

“They should also verbally denounce the specific forms of Islamophobia and hatred in relation to targeted nations and their policies of institutionalized discrimination, such as Belgium’s ban on full-face veils. In order to fight against Islamophobia and hate crimes that dramatically increase after major tragedies like the Brussels attacks, we must localize the specific Islamophobic policies and attitudes that helped to facilitate such attacks.”

Using this same line of bullshit logic I guess America is to blame for 9/11 and anyone who’s ever been beheaded by followers of the so-called ‘religion of peace’ have only themselves to blame as well.
