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.
