Why Do We Have a National Policy of Coddling Muslims Like They're Fragile 2-Year Olds in a Perpetual State of Tantrum?

Frank J tweeting this yesterday afternoon:

So when do we get to stop treating the Middle East like toddlers on the verge of a tantrum? Near future, or distant Star Trek future?

Good question.

Daily Caller expands on the theme:

Obama resumes coddling the fragile psyches of Islamic extremists -- Decider in Chief Obama has decided: The American people do not need to see a picture of a dead Osama bin Laden, for which they have paid roughly $1 trillion over the last decade. "It is important to make sure that very graphic photos of somebody who was shot in the head are not floating around as an incitement to additional violence or as a propaganda tool," Pres. Obama says in an upcoming 60 Minutes interview. (The White House has propaganda locked down, what with allowing the world to believe for an entire day that bin Laden used his own wife as a human shield.) Conversely, the only people who would want to see said picture (according to the White House, a gutless Beltway press corps, and God knows who else) are conspiracy theorists who need proof of Osama's death. Those who believe that bin Laden is dead, and still feel entitled to see the fruits of a ten-year war on terror--for closure, to gloat, as compensation for countless TSA pat-downs, suspicious package alerts, and the anxiety that comes with flying anywhere nowadays--apparently do not exist. Even House Intelligence Committee Chairman Mike Rogers is opposed to the idea, saying, "Imagine how the American people would react if al Qaeda killed one of our troops or military leaders and put photos of the body on the Internet." You mean like they did with the bodies of those poor Blackwater contractors? 

Jim Geraghty adds this in his Morning Jolt email:

I am tired of my government's adjusting its policies in these inane attempts to placate the triggers of rage among unstable people -- as if it's our fault for provoking them.

The fact that the Muslim world goes into petulant tantrums at the drop of a hat (or a Koran) is not our problem, it's theirs. If they can't learn on their own how to control themselves in a mature, responsible manner, they'll never learn if we tip-toe around every issue that gives them the vapors.  No parent would put up with that and neither should we.
