in Israel and India, continuing to claim thousands <strong>of</strong> innocent lives each year. All over the world, Islamic<br />

terrorism remains a serious threat and impediment to peace, security, liberty and democracy. Today’s<br />

murderous fanatics are so deeply brainwashed, so devoted to their prejudices and hatreds, that any hope <strong>of</strong><br />

reform is completely unrealistic. The only possible successful combat strategy must focus on the entire<br />

Jihadic organization including all internal structures, the theologians setting the goals, and all social and<br />

religious values giving comfort and moral support and sanctuary. The act <strong>of</strong> terrorism by a specific<br />

community following a specific theology should be viewed for what it is, a collective criminal act. We,<br />

therefore, need to address both the psyche and all social defects <strong>of</strong> the whole Islamic Jihadi community.<br />

But we also must face the uncomfortable fact that sometimes one simply has to admit that sometimes you<br />

cannot tame a wild animal lost in primal lusts long forgotten by civilized human beings, you can only kill<br />

such a wrenched creature. Feel sorry for it, but kill it none-the-less, for if you don’t it will surely kill you<br />

and your children. The cunning creature is already at the door and perhaps even in the kitchen. Take your<br />

eyes <strong>of</strong>f it and it will strike, sleep and it will take advantage to kill your neighbors and children, feed it<br />

and it will thank you with a poison bite. It is both a hydra with many heads, and a swarming nest<br />

requiring repeated blows to make our lives secure and our homes safe. A weak blow that does not put the<br />

creature into the next world will not drive it away, but will only result in a more cunning attack the next<br />

time. Negotiations and truce will only delay its ambitions and methods. Weak Tit-for-tat responses only<br />

embolden it to harsher measures and further depravity. The same choice faced by so many since the 7th<br />

century is now upon every citizen <strong>of</strong> the US, convert …or fight.<br />

It is not just Americans and some Europeans who are becoming "Islamophobic" (a made up term to<br />

fit a void for Islamists and their apologists in the ideological war <strong>of</strong> ideas). Australians, Koreans, Japanese<br />

and other nations that have almost no previous history with Muslims are also starting to fear Islam as it<br />

proves to continue to be consistent in its dealings with its ever expanding borders. This is not a phobia, or<br />

an unreasonable fear based on an unreasonable thought process, but a fear that is very real, justifiable, and<br />

firmly based on the simple fact that Muhammad’s Islam is a religion <strong>of</strong> terror. In the Qur’an (8:12)<br />

Muhammad promised to "instill terror in the hearts <strong>of</strong> the unbelievers", and he and his devoted followers<br />

continue to succeed at doing exactly that. And so now much <strong>of</strong> the world is learning to fear Islam. As it<br />

turns out being Islamophobic is not such a bad thing after all. All who faced the personal terror <strong>of</strong> their<br />

own demise on Sept 11th did not fear Islamists or their agenda prior to their own victimization. That lack<br />

<strong>of</strong> knowledge and fear did not serve or protect them, just as many millions throughout history have been<br />

surprised at the murderous behavior <strong>of</strong> Jihadists. Lack <strong>of</strong> awareness and appropriate fear makes<br />

individuals and nations more vulnerable to attack. Initially, surely most victims throughout history never<br />

imagined that their Muslim neighbors, and sometimes even partners and friends, might someday seek to<br />

enslave or destroy them. Being both aware and fearful <strong>of</strong> Jihadists intentions does far more to ensure<br />

safety and survival than not, so being in such a state is both desirable and laudable. If the past 1400 years<br />

<strong>of</strong> history have proven one thing, it is that the lack <strong>of</strong> knowledge, respect, and fear for Islamists and their<br />

intentions has proven fatal for many individuals and even entire cultures. In fact any non-Muslim who is<br />

not ‘Islamophobic’ is either an ignorant fool, or guilty <strong>of</strong> hubris. Although the term is meant to be<br />

derogatory, being accused <strong>of</strong> having a fear <strong>of</strong> Islamimanics is in fact a compliment. To be Islamophobic is<br />

to be educated, to be aware, to have a firm grip on reality and healthy grasp <strong>of</strong> a very real threat to peace,<br />

prosperity, country, and family. On the other hand to be aware <strong>of</strong> the threat and to choose to ignore it, is<br />

to capitulate to slavery over freedom, and servitude over prosperity. Whether this country is still the land<br />

<strong>of</strong> the free and home <strong>of</strong> the brave, or simply (as are the Europeans) a land <strong>of</strong> aspiring dhimmis, will be<br />

answered by a generation <strong>of</strong> Americans who have heret<strong>of</strong>ore never been tested, and who still remain<br />

largely ignorant <strong>of</strong> the theology and peoples seeking their destruction. When called, will they put down<br />

their X-Box controllers and pick up a weapon to defend their families, friends, and country, or will they<br />

continue to join the ranks <strong>of</strong> Michael Moore’s anti-government conspiracy legions? As with the Roman<br />

Empire, will this fledging nation fall victim to its own prosperity and resulting moral weakness? When it<br />

becomes more apparent that the future <strong>of</strong> our democracy is at stake, will more answer the call than the<br />

relative handful <strong>of</strong> strong, brave, and faithful in the armed services today? Did they even notice Sept 11th,<br />

or Madrid, the thousand plus US soldiers killed by marauding religious fanatics lusting to kill Americans<br />

in Iraq? Will they defer self-indulgent pursuits for the greater good, or continue to escape responsibility<br />

using the usual relativistic rational. Will the current 18-26 year olds continue to vote in a block to
