Justin Darr is quite right. It is an unrealistic fantasy to believe that simply continuing to placate whatever "moderate" Muslims are thought to be out there, by naming Islam as a "religion of peace," will somehow diminish the threats and end the terror. Foolish thinking and extremely dangerous, IMO.

Fine article on the historical realities of Islam. . . 1,400 years of blood, gore, death and destruction...all toward the end of world conquest.

The fact that the vast majority of Moslems are good, moral, decent people is not a reflection on Islam as a faith, but the fact most Moslems are just good people. They would act the same way no matter what, if any, faith they chose. Interesting point.

Daniel Pipes review of David Cook's book, "Understanding Jihad". This book is a good resource for the many aspects of Islam including its contrarian and violent history from its very beginning.

At a minimum, we should stop importing more muslims, and kick out any non-citizen muslims who violate their visas, etc. But it's a sign of our impotence that no politician will even discuss this obvious step.
