Let Islam Prove it is the Religion of Peace...
Tawfik Hamid writes a nice short op-ed for the Wall Street Journal....
When the British government banned Geert Wilders from entering the country to present his film in the House of Lords, it made two egregious errors. The first was to suppress free speech, a canon of the civilized Western world. The second mistake was to blame the messenger -- punishing, so to speak, the witness who exposed the crime instead of punishing the criminal. Mr. Wilders did not produce the content of the violent Islamic message he showed in his film -- the Islamic world did that. Until the Islamic clerical establishment takes concrete steps to reject violence in the name of their religion, Mr. Wilders's criticism is not only permissible as "controversial" free speech but justified.
So, Islamic scholars and clerics, it is up to you to produce a Shariah book that will be accepted in the Islamic world and that teaches that Jews are not pigs and monkeys, that declaring war to spread Islam is unacceptable, and that killing apostates is a crime. Such a book would prove that Islam is a religion of peace.

..and that is why we will go to war with Islam..they will never do what is recommended in the article, and in the end, we will all have to fight to preserve the western way of life.
Although I do agree that we have to fight to preserve our way of life, I fear that it may already be too late. Islam is firmly rooted in Europe and, in effect, calls the shots. Islam is also gaining a foothold in North America and it's only a matter of time before we find ourselves subservient to an Islamic minority. President Obama is now preaching negotiations and alliances with Islamic states like Iran. I think we will be greatly advanced towards becoming a dhimmi society during his term of office.
