Londonistan, Eurabia, Michiganistan...Islam, may be triumphant. The west may have already opted for surrender. The Mohammedian notion of perpetual violence is effective. The West has constructed elaborate political , academic and legal philosophies to mollify this reality, which is based on the assumption that all human beings seek the tranquility of a peaceful life. Enter the Islamics. Suddenly, all of our assumptions and theories of human behavior are in question. Life has little value, hatred of the Jewish person is increasingly acceptable, women are non-persons, etc etc...
Our solution is to blather about the need to better educate,more social services, adjust the social system to embrace the Islamic culture. The question no one is asking is "What do the Muslims bring to the table of Western culture?" If the answer is little or nothing, then why is it in our interest to make room at the table. The answer is, sadly, we have no choice. Like the incapable athelete who resorts to steroids, Islam is incapable of survival without the steroid of actual or potential violence. Never has been, never will.
