Islam, like Catholicism and Protestantism and Buddhism and every other “ism” has a duty to confront evil. To fight it, to oppose with both the force of ideas and, when necessary, the force of arms.

This is exactly the first mistake the west makes in confronting terrorism. As recently as the 1600s to early 1700s other major world religions were driven in large part by political and territorial ambitions. Western religions moved on, Islam did not. Islam and its adherants are not going to change their point of view and if the west views their "religion" from the same point of view as the beliefs of western religions then the west will fail. This is a war against Islam! Defeat islam and then sort out the "good guys" from the "bad guys". Make no mistake, the majority of Islam thoughout the world either actively or passively supports terrorist efforts.

I agree. A lot of thinking about Muslims is done from a Christian or Jewish point of view, and the Infidels have trouble grasping what Islam is all about. (subjugating ,converting or killing non-believers in Allah.)

Some of the Muslim leaders will tell the Infidels straight out what their plans of conquest are, but many Infidels try to excuse the Muslim behavior and blame it on other factors.......... It's the religion stupid!! - Tom
