Reader comment on item: The Islamic Threat

Submitted by The Old Wolf (United States), Apr 21, 2010 at 11:00

> Has fundamentalist Islam replaced Marxism-Leninism as our main enemy?

The answer to this question is an unqualified yes. Whether the ultimate goal of Islam is world domination is debatable, but not in the minds of the extremists - and since the main body of the world's billion-plus Muslims, including its most powerful leaders, respond to the terrorist threat with thundering silence, the voices and ideas of the bomb-vested loons are the only ones that count. Until Islam as a faith becomes unified in a desire to live in peace with its neighbors, I will continue to consider this movement as the greatest threat to the safety and security of my children and grandchildren.
