Too true..

what is difficult to understand is why the political , academic and media are commited to the consolidation and ,indeed, expansion of Islamic forces in the US and Europe. It would appear that there is an agenda at work that is masked with verbage like "The religion of peace" "A hijacked religion" " A small number of extremists" "A great religion ". Those academics and politicians read the same books, and see the same effects that everyone else, yet cannot come to say that unreformed Islam is a clear and present danger to the Constitution of the US, to the social fabric, and the values of individual liberty, freedom of thought ,speech,press and religion and obviously believe that a falsehood, repeated ofter enough, will attain the status of truth. It may be simply a matter of power seeking power, with Islam being seen as the defacto new order of the world, and the elites wanting to ride the wave, bloody as it is.
