The problem is not that our leaders know nothing about Islamic imperialism, because the information is out there and everyone is educable. The problem is that most of our leaders don't want to know.This is why I grin inwardly at The Hildabeaste's furious work trying to arrange a "peace" between the Palis and the Israelis. Not gonna happen.They don't want to know that Islamic imperialists don't see national sovereignty as Westerners do, but that they see only two nations in the world: Dar al Islam (themselves) and Dar al Harb (the rest of the world, which Muslims are instructed to conquer). They don't want to know that Islamic war goes on forever until one side or the other wins, and all our efforts at concession and reconciliation are regarded by the Muslims as weakness. Most of all, they don't want to know that the word "islam" itself means "surrender" in Arabic, not "peace," as has been widely misreported, and that our side is the one that is required to do the surrendering.

Excellent paper on Sharia law and why we need to stop its spread in our country.
