Moderate Muslims more dangerous than their extremist counterparts.

Ignorance is the greatest threat to the West, not Islam.
There is only one immutable Islam and the objective of both extreme and moderate Muslims is the same: total subjugation of the world to Islam. Extremists use violence to get to this goal, moderates use pseudo diplomacy, because moderates know they have time and demographics on their side. Moderates don't agitate against the extremists because the extremists only pave the way for the moderates to spread (not only physically but also ideologically: "please help us moderates to take root in your community and you'll be safe from these extremists"), it is totally brilliant and they can't go wrong especially in the ignorant West.
The doctrine of the totalitarian "religion" of Islam is anathema to the ideals of the free West. Didn't you know that not a single Muslim country has signed the Universal Declaration of Human Rights? The free West cannot strike a deal with Islam as they did with the Roman Catholic Church, because Islam cannot negotiate the word of God (Koran). Please wake up to the facts and take a stance because once you give them an even an inch they will never give it back.

Life is beautiful.
