Finally a factual message has been posted

Shiva, you know your facts. It is reassuring to finally read a post by someone who knows reality as it is, not reality as the deceiving global media portrays. Whether it is Middle East Islamic biased media or Western lefwing biased media, the world is not getting the true facts about reality.

I totally agree with you that the West needs to wake up and smell the coffee before it's too late. We are facing an unprecedented enemy in our time. However, it is not a new enemy if you know your world history. Fundamental Islam has been at rest for almost 60 years and it is reviving itself for something much worse than the world has ever imagined before.

Them most important fact I think the West needs to understand about Radical Islam is this: it has infiltrated the Muslim faith and turned it into a global jihad. It has reached the point now where the people holding all the powerful government positions in the Middle East are Islamic Fundamentalists. They have brainwashed their societies with lie propaganda about jews, Israel and the West. It is this lie propaganda, more than amything, that has expedited the spread of Radical Islam.

The West must also understand a vital truth; that peace negotiations with Radical Islamic Governments are not possible. We all know Yassar Arafat never honored any peace treaty he signed with any nation. Ex-President Bill Clinton should be ashamed of himself for ever talking peace with that evil man. Americans must understand that George Bush did not create the problem. Radical Islam was brewing 9/11 long before Bush was elected and our Government did nothing to stop it.

But most appalling, in my opinion, is a central fundamental practice by Radical Islamists - they teach their children starting at ages as young as 3 years old to fight in jihad. They make suicide bombers out of brainwashed children. When you see this kind of thing happening you know the world has a huge problem.

So the question is this: Is the West going to get it's head out of its @#$ and act strong, or is it going to rest in denial and cower until the enemy strikes first without warning?
