National security advisor H.R. McMaster on Sunday said the car attack at a white nationalist rally in Charlottesville, Va. was terrorism.

“I certainly think any time that you commit an attack against people to incite fear, it is terrorism. It meets the definition of terrorism,” McMaster told ABC’s “This Week."

.......

McMaster on Sunday called for the United States to “extinguish in our nation” the “hatred and bigotry” on display in Virginia.
“We have to do that by asking ourselves what are we teaching our children around the dinner table. What are we teaching our children in school?” he asked.

“We ought to be teaching them about what makes America exceptional, and that’s our commitment to the rights of every individual, liberty, freedom, respect for each other regardless of race, religion, and so forth.”

1. Now we know why Bannon and the alt right are trying to get rid of McMaster.

[rzemanfl]

3. Was he sober when he said that?

[ProudLib72]

6. I like to think of Bannon as a tick

He sucks the lifeblood out of whomever he associates himself with. You can try to dig him out, but it seems he is well embedded. You can get his body, but his head will remain. In this case, he will head right over to Brietbart to spew his nonsense.

2. K and r. nt

4. And this is why Dishonorable Service Bannon wants

Honorable Service McMaster out.

5. Hate to burst his bubble

but he signed up to play on the wrong team if that's what he believes. They are Nazi's and do not seek a peaceful resolution. They aren't any different than ISIS. They want a religiously fueled minority to control the direction our country takes.

7. How many think that those who have sat around

their dinner tables and taught their children hate and bigotry are going to turn around and tell their children, "oh dear, I was wrong to say those things. We should do the opposite now."

I don’t. We're talking many generations of changed attitudes. Forget the table talk, it will take much more than that.

8. Yeah well the interviewers had to drag it out of him past all his ABSTRACT words

like the ones quoted in the O.P. - "hatred bigotry liberty freedom respect" - all of those cloudy feelgood ABSTRACTIONS, and even "terrorism" didn't pin things on the Deplorables. He's a weasel, of the military-kissup variety.
