It IS War!

When are we in the West going to realize that we are in a war of civilizations that will end only with the destruction of the West or of Islam? Islam is a foe that is implacable. It will brook no negotiation. It will tolerate no other law but its own. It will resort to any subterfuge to further its interests (that's in the Koran, by the way). It will honor no treaty. It defines "peace" as that condition in which everyone is converted to Islam or is dead. How can a religion that teaches that the misdeeds of the children are the responsibility of the mother and that she must bear the burden of the consequences, be reconciled with Judeo-Christian civilization? How can a religion that blames women for rape be called "tolerant" (by the way, where are the leftie feminists on that one?)? Do we have to lose a city to a nuclear device before we realize that we are in the fight of our lives?
