Faithfully Sounding the Alarm

Submitted by Norman Singer (United States), Oct 11, 2005 at 13:52

Dear Mr. Pipes,

I am deeply grateful for your column, "Bush Declares War on Radical Islam", as it clearly defines the state of the conflict in which we have been, reluctantly, engaged.

Over the past 25 years, the Western World has been progressively inundated by a flood of 'PoMo Babble' from all sides that has served to shield the actions of the Islamists in clouds of benevolent-sounding obfuscation. Their artful delusions have seduced many otherwise well-intentioned folks to take up our enemy's cause. We have needed a voice to clearly sound the alarm, and accurately define, and thereby shine a light upon the enemy that has been skulking in the shadows to challenge the free Western World. You have, for the past decade, (at least) been that modern incarnation of Paul Revere.

For your courage, the clarity of your vision, and your relentless grasp of that which is really going on, I give sincere thanks.

Finally, you have been heard, and our country is the healthier for it.

May G_D grant you the strength to complete your task.
