Homeland Security pushes to ban the words 'sharia' and 'jihad' in new program to steer millennials away from ISIS

The Department of Homeland Security thinks censorship will help stop American millennials from becoming drawn to groups like ISIS. DHS' Advisory Council has released a report, suggesting that we stop making the fight against radical Islam an 'us versus them' fight.

In order to do this, the department says it should 'reject religiously-charged terminology and problematic positioning by using plain meaning American English'.

The Department of Homeland Security has suggested doing away with words like 'jihad' and 'sharia' to help curb American millennials from becoming radicalized.

That means doing away with Islamic terms like 'jihad' - which means holy war- and 'sharia law,' which are rules that govern ways of life in Muslim governments.

The department also says we should stop using the term 'Muslim Americans' and 'the Muslim world', and replace them with 'American Muslims' and  'Muslim communities'. 

Homeland Security is leading an effort to address young Americans becoming radicalized online by groups such as ISIS and the al-Nusra Front.

The department is asking that $100million be used to fund the effort, which will go towards paying experts and creating social media programs and technology to steer millennials away from terrorist recruiters.

As much as I hate PC BS I actually agree with this one. 'sharia' and 'jihad' are terms used by radical Islam and if they are replaced by English translations like 'Holy War' and 'Religious laws' it could be a positive. However if the plan is to just not talk about 'sharia' and 'jihad' than it is just PC BS.

Holy war and religious laws are not 21st century acceptable terms. It's not a case of PC because PC shields the barbarity of the Islamic religion, founded by a misogynistic paedophile who was a racist. Nothing has changed in the last 1500 years. NOTHING.
