H8tank Posted April 7, 2008 Share Posted April 7, 2008 Islam, which developed in the 7th century, counts millions of Moslems around the world who are normal people. However, there is a radical streak within Islam. When the radicals are in charge, Islam attacks Western civilization. Islam first attacked Western civilization in the 7th century, and later in the 16th and 17th centuries. By 1683, the Moslems (Turks from the Ottoman Empire) were literally at the gates of Vienna. It was in Vienna that the climatic battle between Islam and Western civilization took place. The West won and went forward. Islam lost and went backward. Interestingly, the date of that battle was September 11. Since then, Islam has not found a way to reconcile with the modern world. Today, terrorism is the third attack on Western civilization by radical Islam. To deal with terrorism, the U.S. is doing two things. First, units of our armed forces are in 30 countries around the world hunting down terrorist groups and dealing with them. This gets very little publicity. Second we are taking military action in Afghanistan and Iraq. These are covered relentlessly by the media. People can argue about whether the war in Iraq is right or wrong. However, the underlying strategy behind the war is to use our military to remove the radicals from power and give the moderates a chance. Our hope is that, over time, the moderates will find a way to bring Islam forward into the 21st century. That’s what our involvement in Iraq and Afghanistan is all about. http://www.superfactory.com/articles/meyer...n_the_world.htm It's a pretty good read, you should check it out.

Front Row Posted April 8, 2008 Share Posted April 8, 2008 (edited) Most countries in the Western world have stopped breeding. For a civilization obsessed with sex, this is remarkable. Except for Swammi . Edit to add: Nice read H8, & some very interesting links also. Edited April 8, 2008 by Front Row Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Avernus Posted April 8, 2008 Share Posted April 8, 2008 Gates says he knows where he is, we have satellites watching the border region 24/7, we have drones and Cruise missiles...do they even want to get him? I'm guessing that would prompt more attacks on US soil.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
