Oh, one more thought. We used to have Muslim posters on FR. It's a sad thing that events have turned for the worse, but I need to post this thought:

Does anyone think that one would hesitate to protect themselves by isolating a group of people, even when one may be good, because amongst the group, there are many who would willingly commit suicide if they could take out enough of their enemy?

And how does that situation appear when you can't really tell who's good and who's not, because that group of people believe it's OK, by their own religion, to lie openly?

I don't believe that another group of people can peacefully coexist with Islamicists. There needs to be sweeping cultural changes that occur within Islam itself before it can be acclimated to thrive within modern civilization. Until then, areas that host Islamicists will be subject to building a bridge to the 14th century, and all the barbarism that implies.

Islam cannot coexist with itself. The Jihad is against other Muslims. One day someone may wake up and realize that Islam and life are incompatible.

"I don't believe that another group of people can peacefully coexist with Islamicists..."

They can peacefully coexist - look at where I stay in Malaysia and Singapore.

A better way of saying this is that they cannot coexist under a "liberal Western-style democracy"

"In the years ahead, as the world tries desperately to cope with population increases, demographic imbalances, unemployment, and both external and internal threats from quasi-fascist movements such as Islamic fundamentalism it will be social order and stability that will become of paramount importance to many people, much more so than liberty or freedom. Having already placed their lives in the omnipotent hands of the State, is it really such a leap of logic for one to foresee that individuals in the near future will think nothing of sacrificing freedom for security?

Not unlike the countries in Southeast Asia, America and the West will seriously have to consider implementing further authoritative measures within our own societies in the near future to deal with the revanche of Islamic fundamentalism should we fail to address the political aspirations and aspects of Islam now."
