I wish like you, "Mz Anne", that "right speak" prevailed ...

I think a lot of people still think that kind of thinking is dominant. This is especially true of a lot of the older ex-American military people - that righteous thinking and Western military might is still as big a factor as it used to be. I see them cropping up once in a while on various forums on the internet. To bad they aren't still young enough to get their old school line of thought into the majority again.

Without this kind of thinking being up front amongst is citizenry, politics and military don't stand a chance. The U.S. Chief of Staff officialdom is wilting under islamic "advice", too.

Islam is blatant about a lot of things. That is crucially important and very effective to the whole cause.
