Uncivilized and Savage Forever

The left-wingers practice and presumably believe in cultural Marxism and this insidious disease has now infected even Conservatives, President Bush included. With the tentacles of policial correctness or moral/cultural relativism spreading to every level of the federal, state, and local bureaucracies, as well as to the public school and university systems, it will soon be impossible to fight Islam and its pernicious agenda. I agree with other commenters: Islam is the problem, not Islamism. The doctrine of Islam is very clear and all devout Muslims believe that the Qur'an is the immutable, untainted word of Allah, their god, not mine. So all practicing, devout Muslims, whether they are terrorists or not, believe that they are superior to all other people and the rightful rulers of the world. Therefore, all Muslims are potential terrorists and the only way the West can protect itself is to erect a barrier between Islam and the West.

Before the introduction of Western technology and education to the Islamic hordes, not to mention the staggering wealth created by the discovery and harvest of oil, Muslims were quite content to slaughter each other in their perpetual holy wars and internecine squabbles. Most Islamic countries remain uncivilized, tribal backwaters where modern, Western technology is used to murder, maim, and plot jihad against the very people who invented all the nifty gadgets Muslims can't live without, yet lack the resources, ambition, creativity, or motivation to produce for themselves.

But now that they have been given almost unlimited access to the West and all its bounty, they exploit our resources, freedom, opportunities while they plot to destroy us. Just think, had we left them alone, they would still be happily slaughtering each other in the name of Allah, totally oblivious to the outside world. Why did we have to open Pandora's Box, or the doors of the insane asylum, and invite them into our world, a place totally incompatible with their culture, beliefs, and aspirations?

There is an integral element of savagery in Islam and it is fundamental to the religion, not incidental. The extent of reformation it would require to remove this barbarity would render Islam meaningless, for it is founded upon all that we in the West consider uncivilized and evil. How can we live with these people in peace and harmony? As their numbers grow, the hostilities, competition for dominance, and inevitable clashes will ensue. This could easily be avoided, but not if the cultural Marxists are in control.

While non-Muslims may see the violent, heinous dictates of the Qur'an as Satanic in nature, Muslims consider gratuitous hate, intolerance, and violence against non-Muslims as perfectly acceptable and normal, since these are Allah's decrees and Allah knows best. How, pray tell, can people who are obligated by virtue of their religion to hate us, live amongst us peacefully for an indefinite period of time? Sure, as long as they are vastly outnumbered, they will be quiet, lawabiding, and conduct their seditious activities behind the scenes. For a glimpse of our future, look at Europe.
