I’ve been thinking about Subsunk’s post at Blackfive that I linked to in today’s Web Recon since I read it on Sunday, but especially I’ve been thinking about the post that Subsunk linked to in his post.
Dan Simmons writes a dark message there for us, and I can’t help but think that he might be right. Has the strain of Political Correctness so infused our lives that we can not even in our darkest times refer to what it is we are actually at war with? Do you fear that thought, the thought that we are not really at war with terrorism but with Islam who is using terrorism as a weapon against us? I do fear that, for if that is the case then we have a major struggle ahead of us and one in which hard choices will have to be made and I know the current leaders of our country can not make those choices for if they could illegal immigration would not even be a talking point. How can we expect our leaders in both parties to address Islam as the enemy when they do not have the fortitude to prosecute illegal action for fear of losing potential votes? Will President Bush be able to make this change, a man who has gone out of his way to point out that this is not a war against Islam but only those radical fringe groups that hide behind Islam? I fear that if it is true then we will all be fighting a war that will last a long time.
And the media will take this change in focus on with a vengeance for they have submitted to Dhimmitude, for they fear for their lives already. Their actions speak for them in the recent Mohammad cartoon episode when they feared publishing the cartoons to allow civil debate, and instead hid behind the pretense of not wanting to incite more riots and to protect the sensibilities of Moderate Muslims.
Moderate Muslims is there truly such a creature? Have any stepped forward to denounce their claims to the Caliphate and swear allegiance to the United States in this war against their brethren? Has CAIR ever taken a stand that supports the US or have they only ever taken stands that use the laws and rights of the US to protect their brethren? Or is the moderate Muslim a construct of the media outlets who are afraid to admit that possibly there are only two types of Muslims, those who partake in terrorism and war and those who hide silently behind their beliefs waiting for the Caliphate. Is there a mosque in this world that does not promote the advancement of Sharia, and if so where is it located?
It is a compelling argument Mr. Simons puts forth is it not, for is not terrorism a weapon like aircraft, rifles and tanks? Would you ever undertake a war against airliners, because that is what the enemy used against us on 9/11? It’s absurd to fight a weapon and not the users of the weapon. Is Islam the new enemy of the world as we know it and terrorism just one of their weapons, and is the United States able to step up to the new threat or will they continue to be less and less ruthless when it comes to war?
If Mr. Simmons is right how then do we explain the existence of Iraqi’s that welcome the US into their country and speak favorably of the good things that are happening as well as the bad being committed by those that wish the US to fail in their mission to stop the spread of radical Islam? Is this the Moderate Muslim that we have heard of and if it is, why are those Moderate Muslims here in the US speaking out in support of the war on terror?
The United States and the entire World stands at the threshold of a new world, one in which the freedoms of liberty can be the foundation of our cultures or one in which the freedoms of an orthodox Islamic society demand your allegiance. Many Nations-States have already fallen and have begun the process of Dhimmitude, they make excuses for the actions of Muslims in their countries and allow sharia to become a de facto part of the law of the country by not prosecuting those that still practice honor killings. If Mr. Simmons is correct, then we must be ready to take this war to the next level, and when that time comes I know our current leaders will not be the people that take us there.
