Islam plans to enslave us all. And U.S. citizens are not immune. We were stupid enough to elect an Islamist as POTUS. Is there any hope for this nation?

In the intro to his Histories Herodotus notes the enmity of the people on the east side of the Aegean toward those on the west side of the Aegean - a one sided enmity that wasn’t mutual like that of the fabled Hatfields and McCoys - next Herodotus ponders what begen the enmity, considering it may have been the Trojan War, whose pretext was Paris’ ill-mannered dating of Helen of Troy, a basis of war the people on the east side of the Aegean couldn’t comprehend - thus the Trojan War was unjustified in their eyes - however it began, Herodotus remarks that the enmity had been around forever - (and it may have been this fact that prompted Herodotus to write on this theme to gain best seller status forever - for what’s been around forever will probably continue to stay a while) - and so, perhaps the Persian Empire folded into Islam, where the cultural enmity - as a cultural precept - was codified as scripture - toward those on the west of the Aegean, and the greek civilization folded into Christianity, and thus the Persian Wars Herodotus wrote about are still here today - and perhaps this frame of meaning could prove useful - but it presupposes the West is still on the playing field - if the West has walked off the playng field...

False headline. Since when is Islam “civilized”. Should be the West , Civilization vs. Barbaric Islam.

There's no need to connect any dots; there's only one dot: islam is simply and purely a political system, not a religion, and unless and until – 1) humanity wakes the hell up and quits referring to islam as a religion, 2) names islam and muslims as the enemy, and 3) utterly and completely exterminates it and them from the face of the earth – there is no hope for any of us.

Islamic civilization is an oxymoron.
