EUROPE AND ARABS ARE HEADING FOR WAR

Recently European newspapers published trivial cartoons that offended Muslims. The Muslims reacted very irrationally and set ablaze embassies across the Middle East. A cascade of riots and demonstrations cut a swath of anger across East Asia into the Middle East and as far North Africa. It appears Europe will not let Muslims dictate what it means to be free, and Muslims will not let Europeans dictate what is sacred to Muslims.
What seems like a trivial matter actually has broad implications and serious consequences. Provocative politics are leading to a clash of civilizations between Europeans and the Arab world. What could have died down at the local level was egged on by the Danish imams. The imams circulated copies of the insulting cartoons across the whole Arab world. In doing this the imams created the violence among Arabs that make them look like utter savages. It is becoming clear that the free world cannot live together with the Arab nations.
This episode is the latest in a series of events that has Muslims and Europeans on a collision course: the Van Gogh assassination; the Madrid bombing; the London bombing; the France riots. European defiance in the face of Muslim anger over the cartoons shows the hardening of Europeans attitudes toward what they view more and more as an alien and hostile culture. A bloody war is certainly beginning to arise between the two cultures.
If cartoons can inflame the hatreds of Muslims to the point that they are murdering and burning, it is only a matter of time before Europeans decide that they have simply had enough of this nonsense, and that it is time to strike back.
Those voices calling for greater sensitivity to Muslim sensibility, as if that would prevent the problem from ever breaking out again, simply do not understand the nature of what they are up against. Islam is a religion that seeks to convert all non-Muslims. The Muslims simply would not tolerate any society to be non-Muslim. No Muslim country is free in any way, shape or form.
Europeans are increasingly uncomfortable with the fact that their homelands house 30 million more Muslims today than 35 years ago, and that Islam has grown to become Europe’s second-largest religion. They are getting restless and starting to take action, establishing stronger anti-terrorism forces, increasing their police’s freedom of action against Islamist elements, expelling radical Muslims from their midst--and now, defiantly exercising what they view as a fundamental right to publicly criticize and parody the holiest symbols of that religion.
It is only a matter of time before another incident brings the simmering hatreds right back to a boil. The lid will be blown off completely and mass killing and violence will grip both cultures. The extremist Muslims are looking for a war--AND THEY ARE GOING TO GET IT.
