IIRC Pat Robertson was they only 'wing-nut' who blamed America's decadence for the Islamic Fascists attacks.

That turns out not to be the case.

I didn't see your post before mentioning the pirates; I'd read it elsewhere. I'll have to look for that book!

History teaches us that history teaches us nothing.
In the early morning hours of All Saints' Day, November 1, 1954, guerrillas of the National Liberation Front (Front de Libération Nationale -- FLN) launched attacks in various parts of Algeria against military installations, police posts, warehouses, communications facilities, and public utilities. From Cairo, the FLN broadcast a proclamation calling on Muslims in Algeria to join in a national struggle for the "restoration of the Algerian state, sovereign, democratic, and social, within the framework of the principles of Islam."...

Cordially,

"The Muslims have been fighting America since our founding."

And western civilization AND eastern civlization since ITS founding (Islam's).

True; Patsy's another example.

While I disagree with Dinesh's conclusions, it seems obvious to me that our society's great decadence in sexual matters provides the Islamists with a lot of unnecessary ammo.

Surely it is possible to avoid both burkification of women and the recent public competitive crotch exposure by female celebrities.

Puh-leeze. That's like saying that Dubya's pronouncing "nuclear" as "nucular" provides the Democrats with a lot of unnecessary ammo -- if Dubya possessed a command of the English language that made William F. Buckley sound like a meth-addled hillbilly, the Democrats would simply find some other angle and use it in exactly the same way.

Of course they would. My point is that our in-your-face sexual depravity probably helps recruit more members to the Islamist cause.

Perhaps this is the inevitable price of freedom.

***That turns out not to be the case.***

That's why I put "IIRC" and also that Pat's view was limited to a few - which your link confirms with one 'Dinesh D’Souza'.

Islam is hiding behind israel and america hating to deflect attention from their satanic agenda.

It's simply a convenient excuse. They hated us at our founding, and were willing to try to destroy our trading if we didn't pay them protection money, and we were pretty buttoned up then. If a nation isn't dominated by Islam, it is, of course, an enemy of Islam.

The essence of Islam is hatred.
