We have been repeatedly told that Islam is a religion of peace while the evidence shows that this is anything but the truth. The slaughter of the UN workers is only the latest example that Muslim extremism is the real picture of much of Islam.

We need to accept that 9/11 was widely applauded in much of the Muslim world; the government of Afghanistan and other Islamic nation’s laws not only endorse but require the killing of anyone who dares to convert to a religion other than Islam; when a Danish cartoonist satirized the ‘Prophet’ Mohammad Muslims rioted the world over and he still needs to live in fear of Muslims following their cleric’s teaching to kill him. I can go on and on with Theo Van Gogh, Salman Rushdie, whose death was required by the highest levels of Islam, Ayatollah Khomeini and continues to this day.

Islam is fundamentally opposed to freedom of religion and freedom of speech. The number of Islamic nations that accept these concepts are few if not nonexistent. Religious freedom is something Muslims grab eagerly onto in western nations but absolutely reject in Islamic nations. The same is true for freedom of speech and press. Try taking your own bible into Saudi Arabia or establishing a Christian medical clinic in Indonesia. You will then come to understand how much Muslims buy into freedom.

I know that this post will have others label me as a bigot. This post is, understatedly, politically incorrect. I fear that unless we are willing to clearly face and state the truth that it is not just the ‘extremists’ that want to destroy us, this country and the western world will be slowly suffocated by Sharia.
