The bishop of Hildesheim in Germany paid an imam a courtesy visit in his mosque. The imam handed the Catholic prelate a Koran, which he joyfully accepted. But when the bishop tried to present the imam with a Bible, the Muslim cleric just stared at him in horror and refused to even touch Christianity's holy book.

This is why at some point the West will realize the first step in really fixing this problem will require making Mecca a place that used to be on the map.

They are 'dhimmi,' a protected but politically immature minority."

Finally, an acknowledgement that it's more of a political system than a religion.

"The dialogue is not proceeding well because of the two-facedness of most Muslim interlocutors on the one hand and the gullibility of well-meaning Western idealists on the other," Bassam Tibi said Tuesday in an interview with United Press International.

Important info bump.

Americans were not always so gullible. Our common sense has been eroded by decades of liberal education and hypertolerance indoctrination.

For example, suppose in 1939 the Nazi party established a headquarters in every city and large american town in the USA. Suppose they funded these headquarters directly from Berlin and recruited members from among society's dregs in prisons and gangs. Suppose Nazis immigrated to the USA by the shipload and took up residences across the nation.

Who would stand for that?

Suppose they spread propaganda and told everybody "we are peaceful people from the land of chocolate".

Who would believe this?

But today Islam is invading the USA, recruiting in prisons, putting their Saudi funded mosques everywhere, lying to us that "Islam is Peace" etc etc, and the USA largely just accepts it.

Islam has no place in the west.

"First, both sides should acknowledge candidly that although they might use identical terms these mean different things to each of them.

Furthermore, they do not share a cultural context from which to establish an understanding. Concepts such as the separation of church and state, the existence of objective truth and the desirability of speaking it, which are a given in the West, are utterly alien to Islam.

Well, maybe we've found one honest Muslim (outside those few pockets like
Turkey).

I hope this gets picked up by the Prager, Medved and Hewitt shows.

This is a UPI article? Wonders never cease.

UPI had an analysis article that basically said most American and virtually all
European reporters swallowed the Jenin "massacre" story hook, line and sinker.
I think it even said that NPR had earned the title "National Palestinian Radio".

Sounds like there's at least a pocket of sanity at UPI.

Surprise. But those who choose not to believe that islam is primarily a totalitarian ideology insisting on a complete subservience of the individual to the tenets of islam are simply fooling themselves. Many islamic scholars assert with pride that islam is a way of life and an ideology for governance and politics.

Trojan Horse Muslimscreates an instant mental picture and illustrates the concept of muslim duplicity extremely well, that's why I use it all the time.

Even those sheeple who only casually follow this culture war can at a glance comprehend the meaning of Trojan Horse Muslims, and they won't forget it.

You nailed it.

A muslim is "humiliated" when a Westerner has a better car then he.

Muslims are "humiliated" when they stand next to a taller or stronger non-muslim.

A muslims were "humiliated" when the Wright Brothers invented airplanes. And so on.

IOW, muslims have the mentality of an angry bitter 10 year old.

The situation with Islam, together with the mouthings of our left-leaning Supreme Court spell deep trouble for what is left of traditional American Society.

You are right.

Years of politically correct thinking, exposure of weak and undisciplined young minds to Hollyweird, leftist newspaper propaganda, education by liberal freaks masquerading as teachers, actions by jellyfish calling themselves Politicians, wacko left-wing Clergymen, conscienceless attorneys, etc, has destroyed our ability to defend ourselves, our beliefs, and our society.

I hope Tibi had good life insurance before he made this statement - he's liable to get the Rushdie treatment.

Excellent Post rageaholic. I wish many more Americans understood the long range threat that the exponental growth of Islam poses to America. Travis' "Trojan Horse Muslims" is the perfect way to picture this.
