Are We Afraid of Islam?
Since people believe that there can be no world peace without pacifying Islam, no one dares to act decisively against the Islamists. So in effect, their radical exploits against other faiths are urged on by the sleeping masses.

By Ludwig Schneider
It was thought, until recently, that Islamic terrorism was only directed against Israel. However, that was once upon a time—before 9/11 sent a wake-up call to the West in 2001.

Since then, Islamic terrorism has been directed against non-Moslems around the world, beyond the war zones in Iraq, Afghanistan and Israel. In all these attacks, some 5,000 people have lost their lives. The goal is not to conquer land, but rather the apocalyptic cleansing of the world so that it will submit to Islam.

Two dangerous elements are coming together here. In the Christian nations, religion has fallen from its pedestal, and at the same time, Islam is experiencing a renaissance that has not only stirred up anti-Semitism/anti- Zionism, but also anti-Christian sentiment.
