The killing of Paul Johnson is bad news for the left, even worse than Nick Berg. I recently became aware of the fact (Thanks XT) that Johnson was a sympathizer of the Islamic cause in that he was quoted as saying "I hate my country's politics. I am interested in Islam. If I convert, I will go and live with my wife in East Asia."
So how is this bad for the left? The left calls Islam a religion of peace and accuses America of "crusading" against peaceful Muslims to satisfy our own greed. They seem to think that Muslims have nothing against us other than the fact that we are aggressing against them so we can steal their oil, and that the terrorism is merely a response to our aggression. Well think again. The fact that Johnson, a Muslim sypathizer, was ruthlessly murdered defies this leftist assertion. They are not interested in negotiating peace us. And they are not merely responding to our aggression. They simply want to kill the infidels, as they were commanded to do. And whether you love them or hate them, if you are a non-Muslim, you are already dead.

Cohen cites the next part of the message as his reason for this statement: "... so that they know for certainty, that anyone who treads our land from them, will receive this same punishment, and Allah guides to the correct path."
"This is a direct call to kill anyone who is not Muslim who comes into a so-called Islamic country regardless of who or what they believe," Cohen explains. "While the justification for Paul Johnson's death was that he was a 'millitary Christian,' the call now is to kill anyone who is not Muslim who sets foot on so called Islamic land. What is vague and chilling is that the exact limits of what the author understands as Islamic land are not defined clearly. The call is to behead all non-Muslims in the same way."

So what have we learned? Sympathizers beware. You are no more safe than a US soldier or an MP at Abu Ghraib. Why do you think Michael Moore hasn't planned any book signings or movie screenings in Baghdad?
