Contemporary
Islam is fast becoming the 21st Century
version of 1930's-era Fascism, complete
with a fanatical, expansionist-minded
leadership and an acquiescent Islamic
world populous only too willing to accept
hateful propaganda as a basis for
political doctrine. Muslims truly want to
believe, hence they become Believers in
malicious rhetoric designed to fan the
flames of fanaticism in a Medieval
display of human
brutishness.
The
Allah to whom Muslims worship must be an
evil entity indeed, if murder, suicide
and gender-intolerance are part and
parcel of his message, and shame on them
for ignoring or not recognizing this. If
Muslims in America are unwilling to take
to the streets to loudly protest this
evil perpetrated in the name of Islam,
then I am suspect of their true feelings
regarding Islamic terror. By refusing to
demonstrate openly against intolerance,
hatred and indiscriminate violence, they
lend tacit support to those who deal in
such. By remaining silent, Muslims in
America are saying "We want your
freedoms, but not the responsibilities
that go with it". This passivity
aids and abets the haters who interpret
it as quiet approval, further emboldening
them to act while sheltered within the
local Muslim community.
Are
we ready for this in our midst? Should
Americans be amenable to a diabolical
force that would take the machinery of
our democracy and manipulate it against
us? Should our vaunted
freedoms leave people free to attempt to
destroy us? When is too much tolerance
self-destructive? Currently, federal
authorities are arresting high-profile
Muslims regarding terrorist connections.
Some are professors at American
universities, others run Islamic
charities, still others are religious
leaders. All had quietly blended into
Americana, all the while utilizing the
tenets of a free, open and civil society
to mask a hidden agenda, which, it turns
out, is the destruction of our culture.
We've seen this all before, culminating
in the attacks of 9/11. Do we really want
to endure, in the future, what Israelis
endure daily? Is it fair to expect
Americans to share the land with those
who don't share our values, and who would
harm us as a consequence? I don't think
so. And to those incorrigibles who think
otherwise, then prove it to me. Show me a
sign! Let me see Muslims in this country
rise up and shout "Bin Laden is
wrong! We love our adopted country and we
won't let it be attacked! They will have
to kill us first!" Let's see
thousands of Muslims in American streets
waving American flags! Let's see some
appreciation from a people who evidently
feel they owe none. No one's asking for
human sacrifice here, just a show of
solidarity with a country that offers
them so much. I don't suspect any of that
will transpire, however, because Muslims
are so busy praying that they don't hear
the voice of God admonishing them for
perverting His word.
