>>> The premise that Muslims will choose democracy when given a chance is not true. Democracy is antithetical to Islam, and will always be beaten back in an Islamic country. <<<

I C your defeatist pessimism and call ya.

See the French and Charles the Hammer.

See the Spanish and El Cid.

I am no defeatist. However, it is plain to see that our leadership will not identify or engage our enemies.

My point is that Islam and democracy are incompatible, not that Islam cannot be defeated. It certainly can, but not by being nice, or by trying to sell muslims democracy.
