"History lessons are often incredibly simple and blunt, yet for all our powers of reason, we often miss the most basic, uncomplicated points: Peace-loving Muslims have been made irrelevant by their silence."

It is not their silence that has made them irrelevant. They are pretty much powerless to do anything about it, just like the average Japanese people etc,.

When a force like this grows there is little to do about it that will be effective, especially from a nation outside of their primary influence.

The reason for this problem being unique is that it is stateless. There is no one entity to fight and vanquish.

Our only hope is that countries like Egypt revolt from within as they just did. I have yet to hear of a way for an outside entity to play a role in the defeat of radical Islam. The solution will have to come from within countries other than ours.

I believe that modernism is our greatest ally. Bitch as we might about our media, it is from our media influence worldwide that people elsewhere can crave a better life by seeing it in front of them, even if idiots like the Kardashians may be the ones they are seeing most.

The Koran is a fanatics handbook and all muslims agree with it or else. Just because they are not open about it does not mean they aren’t fanatics, they’re just biding their time.

We’re not silent yet. We let off plenty of steam on the internet...as if that isn’t detrimental.

There are no "peace-loving" Muslims. From the above article:

"We are told again and again by ‘experts’ and ‘talking heads’ that Islam is the religion of peace and that the vast majority of Muslims just want to live in peace."

What saith the Scriptures?

Jer 8:9 The wise men are ashamed, they are dismayed and taken: lo, they have rejected the word of the LORD; and what wisdom is in them?

Jer 8:10 Therefore will I give their wives unto others, and their fields to them that shall inherit them: for every one from the least even unto the greatest is given to covetousness, from the prophet even unto the priest every one dealeth falsely.

Jer 8:11 For they have healed the hurt of the daughter of my people slightly, saying, Peace, peace; when there is no peace.

===============

Since we have as a nation rejected The God, He has rejected us. The outcome is now irrevocably in process.

What? Bush was wrong? It’s NOT a religion of peace with “Women of Cover”?

As long as a Muslim believes in or clings to Sharia Law and the words of Mohammed I will not accept any Muslim as a partner for the USA dream as given to us by the Founders and their handed down Constitution. Talk about wolves in sheep clothing any and all.
