Hitler was also very good at convincing those he attacked that he was never going to attack them, which made his job that much easier when it came time to attack those people. For years there has existed in this country a large pro-Muslim propaganda machine that constantly strives to crush any recognition of the threat of Muslim extremism. It works well.
Gonna have to disagree. There will always be nutjobs (like he San Jose shooters) but the overwhelming majority of them hate because their lives suck so much. With no job, no future, no obligations, etc, it's easy to get embroiled in the "promises" of the religion and get suckered in by the imams that spread the hate. In Afghanistan, the "fighters" switched sides constantly depending on who was paying them at the moment.
And so, that is who they are. Those are their beliefs. They've been that way for a few thousand years. At what point do you concede that that's just their society that they created, maintain and live in? The ME would not evolve into Europe if "they only had the chance". Islam won't allow it. Islam is incompatible with western society.
Actually WWI was much of the cause of II. In addition it was the total stand down of armies that could have stopped Hitler early on that made it FAR worse.
And yet you have BinLaden who was rich. Add in the American cases that were not exactly hurting like the scum from Boston or the Major in TX
I think this is where you're getting "off". As other things become more important (money, job, debt, music, sex, etc), religion becomes less important. Islam is in the period similar to Christianity in the dark ages and Judaism during the old testament smiting days. Eventually (and hopefully much faster, considering our modern times) the conveniences of modern society will push religion to the back burner (assuming the zealots don't bring about Armageddon first).
Ah. The Chamberlain doctrine. Peace in our time and whatnot. Churchill was a fear mongering fool until they needed him.
But the entire rest of his family disowned him. Bin Ladin was that black sheep douche, spoiled rich kid "searching for meaning in life".
You're reversing cause and effect. They are not on their way to enlightment, there are right where they want to be and will stay. And if that isn't the case, please explain what has held them back.
What changed that stopped Christians from burning people at the stake, ramming spikes up people's asses, etc? Secularism will always win in time.
Liberals insist on importing more people from nations where terror is rampant. Without vetting or limits. To prove that they are tolerant and diverse. At other peoples cost. They will point out crap like home grown, lone wolf, etc making up excuses for their own stupidity. The Democrat politicians don't tell these activists and media mouthpieces the truth. They want more unemployable mucks here that they can put on food stamps and welfare so they own their votes. America has a huge battle ahead. From the terrorists trying to kill us and the enemy from within.
