Take it from a European

Submitted by Octavio Johanson (Italy), Apr 13, 2006 at 17:44

I have met tens of Radical Islamists who have adopted the Western life-style. That is common in Paris and London; you don't even need to look at the American situation. The more integrated they are into Western life-style, the more dangerous. You don't need to grow a beard to become a Radical Islamist. You could spend your free time watching Western television- like Sex And The City", or going to basketball matches. If you live in Europe, you can go to strip-joints. That does not prevent you from despising the West.
