Surrender of the West

Reader comment on item: Amazon.com's Koran Desecration Problem
in response to reader comment: Another Setback On A Related Battlefront

Submitted by Mike Randall (United Kingdom), Feb 12, 2006 at 12:40

The recent Hoo Hah about supposed desecration of a Koran is indicative of a malaise that is sweeping across virtually all the Western countries. Here in the UK we are bombarded with pro Islamic comments from the BBC every day to the extent that I can no longer watch the news for fear of throwing up.

The Archbishop of Canterbury has recently apologised for the Crusades, Churches have been converted to Mosques without a single voice of dissent and in the northern town of Bolton (Greater Manchester) a Pub that has stood for hundreds of years, was demolished due to it's close proximity to a newly built Mosque and apparently faced Mecca.

It is my view that Islam need not try too hard to conquer the West, we are doing the job for them - like Lemmings we are rushing into Dhimmitude and soon it will be too late.
