We already know the truth. islam is wholly incompatible with Western civilization. It is a murderous political philosophy every bit as odious as Nazism.
It masquerades as a 'religion'. We should no more tolerate its continued existence than we did Nazi Germany.

The question is: what are you going to do about it?
As the author notes, "To a very great extent the West is genuinely hoping that Islam is a "religion of peace"; and I suspect many Muslims are too."
I suspect he's right about those "many Muslims." Can you suggest an approach that does not turn those Muslims into enemies just because of the circumstances of their birth?
The Truth Will Not Always Set you Free
We want Muslim proxies to replace our trigger pullers. We want Muslim informants to rat out their murderous brothers. We dont want to be too kinetic, because that loses us valuable tools allies, but if we arent kinetic enough nobody over there respects us and nobody in the rear can pump up support for a half-vast, politically correct, over-lawyered war. The Regular .gov strategic communicators dont want to say that, and I dont blame them. The truth has to be massaged, made palatable, less painful.
The painful truth is that neither the Ummah nor a significant segment of the population of America is worth the life of a single Mississippi paratrooper.
The painful truth is that there is no legal way to cull the American oxygen thieves, so our defenders defend the unworthy along with the rest of us, and there is no WMD that can rid us of 1.2 billion enemies, enemy sympathizers, enemy apologists, and enemy enablers without fouling our own nest, so we cant kill near as many as need killing. The best we can do is kill the worst and reconcile the rest.
The painful truth is that Muslim activists in America want to provoke attacks on Muslims in America. They want video of burning mosques on al Jazeera. They want enraged American vigilantes to violate their First Amendment rights. They want the benefits of victimhood. They want to show the world that Americans arent the people were supposed to be.
The painful truth is that our leaders continue to shovel the Religion of Peace bullshit because neither they nor the American people have the balls to round them up and deport them or intern them like was done to the Nisei.
Here is another painful truth: Jacksonian solutions really do have more downsides when applied to 1.2 billion people than upsides. And I'm a Jacksonian who would dearly love to have bin Laden's head on a pike at Ground Zero and the entire world quaking in fear over what we might do next.
