“How the West Could Lose”
by Daniel Pipes
New York Sun
December 26, 2006

SNIPPET: “After defeating fascists and communists, can the West now defeat the Islamists?

On the face of it, its military preponderance makes victory seem inevitable. Even if Tehran acquires a nuclear weapon, Islamists have nothing like the military machine the Axis deployed in World War II, nor the Soviet Union during the cold war. What do the Islamists have to compare with the Wehrmacht or the Red Army? The SS or Spetznaz? The Gestapo or the KGB? Or, for that matter, to Auschwitz or the gulag?

Yet, more than a few analysts, including myself, worry that it’s not so simple. Islamists (defined as persons who demand to live by the sacred law of Islam, the Sharia) might in fact do better than the earlier totalitarians. They could even win. That’s because, however strong the Western hardware, its software contains some potentially fatal bugs. Three of them – pacifism, self-hatred, complacency – deserve attention.”

We have NOT defeated the communists. The West is overrun with cultural marxists that have allied with Muslims as part of a divide and conquer strategy against the people.

It is a no-brainer to prevent Muslim "takeover". Simply change the immigration laws. Unfortunately, the cultural marxists have bribed and threatened both parties to keep immigration floodgates open, despite the so-called WOT.
