Islam will go down in ashes, literally

Dear Daniel:

I really appreciate your articles and it is obvious that you are well versed in your subjects. However, trying to get Muslims to "emulate" the West is impossible... They do not think like we do. They do not understand what we do. They have different rules than we do. Since you are such a good student of history, you may remember that we tried glasnost with the USSR. We tried negotiations. We even gave ground (like Israel has foolishly done). Nothing worked until Reagan made a committment to bury them economically.
...

I have heard that Israel is sitting on top of the biggest oil field in the world. The Bible says that Asher will dip his toe in oil. (Deuteronomy 33:24) Now, what could God be talking about if we were not to take Him literally? There must be oil in Asher's old tribal location. Once Israel finds that oil, America can buy oil from Israel rather than an Islamic country. Couple that with the oil under the USA, and we will not have to keep subsidizing the Arabs, who want to kill us.
