The advance of the primitivism of Islam is a threat to civilization across the planet. Islamic civilization has not progressed in the 1,300 years of its existence. Muslim fundamentalists live in the Dark Ages. Muslim fundamentalists who live in the West are like people who have been taken out of the Dark Ages, and dropped into modern society via time machine.
We have no reason to believe that Muslims, in general, will rise above this primitive medievalism, as the moderate Muslims have not organized themselves on any largescale or coherent basis. They are, apparently, incapable of making the case for an Islam which is compatible with the modern world.
9/11 proved one thing to the West, and that is that Muslim extremists will do anything they can to kill as many Infidels as possible, and to destroy as much of our civilization as they possibly can.
Today, the headline on ABC News is a warning that Al Qaeda will soon call on Muslim to use nuclear weapons against the West.
The American Legislative bodies of the House and the Senate have heard repeated testimony that such a nuclear attack on American cities is not a possibility, but an inevitability.
The day Muslim extremists pull off such a murderous attack will be the beginning of the real war, and the beginning of the end of Islam.
We will, at that point, be forced to contemplate unthinkable means of taking power out of the hands of the advancing Islamic civilization.
The options we will find ourselves contemplating will, likely, include the following:
1) total annihilation of the Muslim world through the use of nuclear
weapons
2) absolute lockdown surveillance of all Muslims, and a new Expulsion of
the Moors from Western lands
3) absolute separation of the Western and Islamic worlds.
It is my opinion that these options are unthinkable, and ultimately impractical.
Instead, I think we will look to history and find that the only lasting peace Europe has had with Islam came when the British invaded the Islamic lands and enacted a strict imperialist policy of subjugation. The British financed this policy through the plundering and exploitation of the resources of the Islamic world.
This is what I believe we will eventually be led to do again. We can not drag Islamic civilization kicking and screaming into the modern world. If the majority of Muslims can not convince their bretheran to live in the modern world, then we will be forced to find more suitable primitive circumstances for them.
As it is, because of oil the Islamic world has the economic power to advance its causes into the Western world. We find ourselves incapable of turning down the god of Mammon in order to continue serving the Liberty and Justice for which we stand. However, if we do not find our moral backbone, the result will be that the Western world will become like the Muslim world.
We can not allow them to move the Western world to a New Dark Age.
From the Asia Times:
Considered as an oil acquisition exercise, Operation Iraqi Freedom has
been a smashing success, and only appalling Wilsonian wimpiness in the US
government has prevented the United States from taking full advantage of it.
Iraq's known oil reserves have been increased by about 100 billion barrels since
the invasion, as competent US oil companies have been free to explore for new
oil employing techniques more advanced than the 40-year-old dowsing sticks used
by Saddam's oil operation.
At today's oil price of $130, less a generous $20 for drilling and
extraction, those additional reserves have a value of $11 trillion, or
approximately 10 times the most alarmist estimate of the cost of the war to
date.
The problem is that the US did not secure itself a proper royalty on
the new oil finds (even 10% would have been worthwhile - $1.1 trillion over the
next few decades.) Nor did it ensure, by setting up a privatized oil company and
a trust fund for the Iraqi people diverting oil revenues from the Iraqi
government, that the new oil finds would be exploited in an efficient manner and
the supplies directed properly into the world oil market.
There has been talk of the United Nations levying worldwide taxes in order to help the disadvantaged around the world. There is no force in the world which puts more human beings at a disadvantage than that of Islam.
The Western world may find itself in the position of having to levy a tax on the Islamic world for the purpose of protecting the world from Islam itself.
During a brief stroll through my Alma Mater, CUNY, I was shocked to find enthusiastic attention and admiration for Islam. I picked up the monthly schedule of events to find it packed with lectures devoted to Muslims and Islam. The emphasis is on the unfair...
From the Irish Daily Independent: IT'S interesting how Pastor Jones -- who memorably appeared in 'The Sunday Times' as "Paster Jones" -- was presented in the western media as the nut job. But the many Muslim governments who threatened the...

I have been hearing an awful lot of pessimism and outright defeatism from people of late. These opinions are not being expressed by lefties. Lefties don't even acknowledge that we are in a war. No, instead this pessimism and defeatism is being expressed...
From The Gathering Storm Don Feder over at ChronWatch lists the top ten reasons why Islam may not be the religion of peace. He also gives us a good explanation of why the very foundation of Islam itself maybe incompatible with a 21st century civilization...
