Adding to Admonitions After Thirteen Years - What Islamism has not Learned

Submitted by M Tovey (United States), Apr 16, 2021 at 12:27

In reviewing thirteen years of following Dr. Pipes' exploration and dissertations of the political extremism that is Islamically based as well as intersection and interjections of decidedly secularistic philosophical moderations of anti-religious persuasions, what has there been learned? Strangely, nothing new, except for possibly one aspect, which the observer touched upon in identifying by Biblical pronouncement the potential future antagonists, also as identified by Dr. Pipes.
Thirteen years ago, the one aspect of eh Ezekiel scenario was not yet in evidence, lending to a question still of when(?). We now have an answer, at least partially: pestilence (Ezekiel 38:22-23). Did/does Islam have anything to add to that? So, thirteen years later, we are really closer to the destiny of Israel, right?
