I have to think that if the whole of the western world didn't depend so heavily on oil from the Middle East, this would not be tolerated. The non-Muslim world certainly has the means by which to contain, control and eliminate most of this continuing threat to civilization. I just do not understand why most of our leaders keep trying to appease these rabid extremists.
Our leaders keep trying to appease these rapid extremists because they refuse to understand that Islam is a culture of hate.
They are taught from the cradle to hate. They hate Christians, Jews, athiests, Hindus, everyone -- including themselves.
