mission improbable?

Dear James,

I agree with you, something must be done to wake up the people of the world to what radical Islam is trying to impose, but how to do this is the question. The world seems to be in a lethargic state, bent only on pleasure and has become weak about fighting this radical ideology, preferring to give in to it. In the film The Time Machine, the Morlocks used the old air raid sirens to call the Eloi down into their earthen graves. The Eloi were hypnotized by the sirens, and willingly and unthinkingly went to their deaths, until their hero forced them to see the folly of their ways. It is high time to wake up to this menace of radical Islam before it is too late, but convincing people is the difficult task; more former Muslims need to be a voice in this.
