Islam is not a religion nor is it a cult. It is a complete system.
Islam has religious, legal, political, economic and military components. The religious component is a beard for all the other components.
Islamization occurs when there are sufficient Muslims in a country to agitate for their so-called 'religious rights.'
When politically correct and culturally diverse societies agree to 'the reasonable' Muslim demands for their 'religious rights,' they also get the other components under the table. Here's how it works (percentages source CIA: The World Fact Book (2007)).
However, in our past, the newcomers settled into ghettos, and then were assimilated over the next generations. But remember that they had very few reminders of the "old country." Today there is very cheap travel and telecommunications that keep the new comer tied to the old country. Plus, there is local radio, plus Spanish TV and for the Muslim, al-Jazeera. And the politicians, especially Left wing Demos, target and try to use this as a wedge to keep'em in the ghettos and voting as told. But none of the new arrivals offer the problems of the new Muslim. In a land that prides itself on being tolerant, it is easy to see how we can just fold to their demands because "diversity is good."
It is with those thoughts that I view this:
From Audacity of Hope: "I will stand with the Muslims should the political winds shift in an ugly direction."
However, that is not correct. Here is the correct version.
UPDATE AND CORRECTION: From reader Dan, with thanks:
The actual quote from the book is from page 261 and is as follows: "Of course, not all my conversations in immigrant communities follow this easy pattern. In the wake of 9/11, my meetings with Arab and Pakistani Americans, for example, have a more urgent quality, for the stories of detentions and FBI questioning and hard stares from neighbors have shaken their sense of security and belonging. They have been reminded that the history of immigration in this country has a dark underbelly; they need specific reassurances that their citizenship really means something, that America has learned the right lessons from the Japanese internments during World War II, and that I will stand with them should the political winds shift in an ugly direction."
But a reasonable person will note that there is no significant differences between the short version and the actual quotation. However, when leveling charges, it is always necessary to be as accurate as possible.
So again we have something that Hussein should have to explain. Only this time he can't condemn the statements without condemning himself. He is caught with no escape, yet the pundits won't ask the question because it is the coup de grace of his campaign.
Class over, chums. Time for a hot bath and a cold Stoly... on the rocks with nothing on the side.
And my thanks to Larry P.
