I’m not underestimating them.
Simply saying that if the west still believed in its values like the Islamists believe in theirs, Islam would have never been allowed to gain a foothold here.
Instead the postmodern leftists with their nihilistic and suicidal multiculturalism and “diversity” are putting out the red carpet for cultures that want to destroy the west, while also working overtime demoralizing us from within.
The West barely survived Islam’s incursions, at Tours, Lepanto and Vienna. And that was when the West had actual values and strong men willing to fight.
Even so, they were not strong enough in Christian Anatolia / Turkey, Egypt, North Africa, Persia, India, etc etc.
For 1,400 years, the neighbors of Islam have underestimated the power of it’s koranic conquest plan, as inbred feral barbarians have invaded (by force or migration) and conquered one strong, brave, proud, intelligent and wealthy nation after another.
