People of America and the free world need to be educated on the subject

What our free world society needs is an education on the Islam-West situation . I can't stress this enough ! Think a decent share of America knows what is going on ? Learn this right now : VERY FEW citizens of the non-Muslim world understand what is happening . As a matter of fact most of them are so ignorant about Islam or/and Muslims that they aren't even interested. The question is : HOW DO WE GET THE MESSAGE ACROSS ?

In my experience, most "everyday " people on the streets are scornful of anyone who tries to tell them how formidable the Islamic threat is. They don't even know there IS a threat. Of course people like YOU Daniel Pipes are a big help , but there are too few like you . Also , even the regular and assumed knowledgeable columnists and journalists seem to have little perspective. They are so worried the Muslims are going to be wrongly accused and their feelings will be hurt. They are probably afraid too. Ignorance will be the kiss of death to a democratic and secular society . HELP !!!!
