Salah,

Recep Tayyip Erdogan, the "moderate" prime minister of Turkey had, during a speech, said "The mosques are our barracks, the domes our helmets, the minarets our bayonets and the faithful our soldiers".

Non-muslims are waking up to the danger that Islam poses to all humanity (including Muslims). The philosopher Ernest Renan once said "Muslims are the first victims of Islam.....to liberate the Muslim from his religion is the best service that one can render him".

Look at your own language "Do not blame our holy warriors now to destroy churches and hunt down Christians". I say, bring it on. You'll win a few battles but we will, for sure, win the war. The war for secularism where science and tolerance can flourish. After all, backward Muslims with their barbarism cannot compete. The more agressive Muslim become, the more knowledgeable we become of Islam and its intentions. The Swiss minaret ban was a first good step.
