This is a sensational piece by Jonah. He is right on the money.

Obviously, President Bush and the powers that be can't call this a war on Islam or even a war on radical Islam. Daniel Pipes estimates about 10-20% of Muslims fit this description. However, this crowd controls many of the institutions throughout the World and in the US. These people thirst for our destruction.

The point Goldberg makes concerning Israel is absolutely correct. If Israel was destroyed tomorrow the threat to our way of life would still be there. Why are Christians being taken hostage in the Phillipines? Indonesia? Because of Isreal?

Do you remember the bin Laden video released after we began to bomb in Afghanistan? Bin Laden said the struggle began in 1924. That was the year Turkey looked to modernize and secularize it's government and society. He did not trace his grievances to 1948 and the formation of Israel. Even Egyptian President Mubarick has said bin Laden never cared about the Palestinians.

Like it or not this battle is over modernity. We represent that to these people. Appease them at your own risk. Let Israel fall. Watch it from the comfort of your living room. Say it's not our fight. But, ask yourself this question. Where does that leave us? Will these people be mollified? If you answer "Yes" than you don't understand human nature. You certainly don't have any grasp of history. A victory for terror and a victory for radical Islam is only the beginning. Sleep well.
