Jennifer makes another great point, but I wonderReader comment on item: The United States Government, Still the Patron of Islam Submitted by Straight_Talk_Luigi (United States), Jun 18, 2008 at 21:12 I wonder if we can really hold back this storm from the West. Short of crowning Osama as king of Europe, the EU has done almost everything the Islamists want, expect maybe rushing to mosques to convert to Islam. Whether you look at the bombings in Buenos Aires in the 1990s or all the trouble caused by minority (so far, but that will change) Muslim populations in places like Belgium and Holland, just imagine what sort of problems there will be when Muslims get the majority in Europe. I really don't see it any other way. Europe is so apathetic it's already in the tank. I mean, some have already given up, because it's easy, because sharia law isn't there yet. It's just a scapegoat for them to be even more selfish. There's just too many selfish people over there who don't kids or a responsible lifestyle. The only traditional families (the strongest ones) will be Muslims. If you're getting everything you want and doing what you want (sex, drugs, beer, porn), why change? This is the dilemma of the common European. They have no incentive to change. By the time the Islamists make their move, it will be too late. They will wait until they have the advantage in numbers and spirit. It will happen this century.
