Just reading this and the comments too...

Wondering ...

How a whole world can be in such psychological denial as to the goals of islam? Have we become so ‘civilized’ (read PC), as we cannot see the danger in front of us, around us, and in pursuit of us?

They speak openly of the overthrow of the Western way of life, they actively plot and game. Yet we are blinded by ...what? We can see their success in varying states amongst the once free peoples and yet we deny their actions as groups and motivated individuals?

Mar. 24, 1924
