Do the Europeans sense that the more open, free-wheeling and non-judgmental the culture, the more it is hated by the jihadists?

No, the problem is that the more open, free-wheeling and non-judgmental the culture the more the jihadists can get away with. A country that values and believes in it's culture will slap those jihadists down and slap them hard, otherwise as Michael Savage said, "Our enemy is willing to die for his beliefs but if we're not willing to kill to survive then the fight is lost"!!!

At the core we are the same people we were one thousand years ago. When it is understood that our survival is at stake we will react as we always have...we will fight. Europe has faced this before..see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Charles_Martel

It's not a perfect example of course, history may repeat itself, but not precisely.

The likely outcome is a bloodbath.

Bill, this thread shows how scary Europe is now and where it is heading thanks to the Demographics and the non judgemental Political Correctness which is rampant in Europe.

They'll attack islamo-fascism with unparalled zeal, just to show the world that they are NOT eunuchs.

Well, maybe, but I think they'll need to be slapped around some more first.

Yes, they will require more pain be inflicted before the old european spirit rises up, and the soccer hooligans take matters into their own hands...

"Or Britan, or Germany, or Pakistan ... oops! I think the Packrats have them already. "

Point well taken. I mentioned France because I believe that they are further down that road than any other Euro country.

Just my poor attempt at humor.

Like whistling in the dark. ;)

What does it say about people who think you can appease them by being politically correct ? Exactly. Being politically correct is, 99% of the time, being incorrect.
