the US Muslim population is relatively small and well integrated

We should do everything in our power to make them relatively smaller as time goes on: No more muslim immigration, and rigorous defense of our freedom to criticize islam.

The situation with the islamites in Europe was a festered sore awaiting the lancer's prick. Better the boil to have been pierced now before it infects further.

IOW, islam's "truth" is being made manifest.

I imagine under continuing international pressure, Islam's inherent intolerance would submerge and lurk like a Nile Crocodile waiting for the opportune time to surface and attack.

You are correct sir. Islam is on the move again. We ignore it at our own peril.

"Islam is on the move again. We ignore it at our own peril."

What is the most humane solution - for handling millions of Muslims Zoombies??

IMHO the Islamics are not dumb.

It reminds me of the Rushdie affair where the threats to his life served to warn off many who might dare criticize AND became a cover to gain power in places where there was no concept of freedom of speech.

The Islamic terms dhimmie and ummah need to be understood when considering the cartoon riots.

They are part of the law for Islamics.

I do not think this is just the free speech issue that so many in Western Civilization believe it is.

The Islamics may have much to gain and little to lose here while the West chases its tail in regards to free speech, something they do not worry about.
