Ignorance, high birth rate & deceit.

Islam by its very nature survives on the withholding of reality and truth.
For these reasons it can blossom in islamic countries due to them being dysfunctional societies with little impetus given to properly educating their people. This coupled with the high birthrates (& the west's low birthrates) will give rise to great global stress.

What is worrying is that seemingly educated Moslems choose to ignore close scrutiny of their religion, mostly in sheer defiance and misjudged grievences. Any reasonable person with an average intellect can quickly deconstruct and expose Islam for its sheer hypocracy and violent rantings. But these people choose the victime mentality.

The ridiculous cartoon furor has exposed how they deal with the smallest slight to their supposed honor. It is ingrained at birth. The Mullahs in Islamic lands are essentially perpertrating a massive fraud and have every reason to continue (what would they do otherwise). Its is easier to breed hate for the west and other religions to deflect the root causes of their utter failure as sophisticated and civilised societies (Last known invention - the suicide bomber). They will not change this view. Why would they. It is in their self interest to keep the masses ignorant and hysterical.

I would like to suggest that online forums like this may open the doors a little - but it is a miniscule fraction of the masses that can access (let alone read) these posts. The west, alas is starting to wake to the reality of the islamic threat. I hope it's not too late. By nature & law we are too accomodating. But I suspect that when pushed to hard & threatened too many times by fanatics that we will bite back. Too that end - lets not forget that aside from our low birth rates in Europe - we hold the whip hand. What we do lack at present is backbone. Appeasment and political correctness is a disaster of monumental proportions. You dont need to support every thing Israel has done but it is hard not to admire their courage and guts. The new maniac President of Iran is a cross roads.

We need another Winston Churchill. To moderate & liberal Muslems. I am sorry for your predicament but enlightenment and truth will see you through. It always does.
