With Respect Mr. Pipes, I disagree

The religion of Islam is just as dogmatic as any western religion with exceptions.

From their perspective, the Qur'an gives evidence that the world must all become an Muslim planet or the people of the world must die.

The one and only thing the Muslim world [peaceful and radical] understands is that if you poke a sleeping bear with a sharp stick, don't expect not to be killed yourself.

As long as the world slumbers with these dreams of changing a 7th century religion's dogma, they will continue to die for their god. When they realize that the Arabs (palestinians) living in Israel are forceably evacuated or destroyed, then and only then will they understand that Allah is not on their side.
