Austria, although suffering the ravages of Allied bombardment, was
spared the degradation of communism because of the Austrians strictly
adhering to their Christian traditions. The German speaking peoples of
central and eastern Europe were forcibly expelled and many suffered
death as well as losing their homes and possessions, and many also were
given a new lease on life in free Europe and other countries of the
world.
Will Americans and Europeans be so lucky if the trend
toward Islamicization continues in the West as it has over the last
decade?
Quibbling about whether Hasan, the Fort Hood killer, just went over the top, or was engaging in
jihad,
does nothing to fix the problem. Then there is the D.C. sniper, also a
Muslim, who is scheduled for execution tonight. Prisoner abuse by our
enlisted soldiers is a sign of declining military discipline and
morale. In sacrificing our cherished traditions on the altar of
capitalism, we as a nation risk destruction.
At some point, it
becomes too late to change a culture save by miraculous intervention.
Has America reached that point yet? Have the envious cynics already won
the culture war?
The strength of Islamic extremism is that it
holds a trump card. Either do what they want or get blown up. When
Christians become so lukewarm in their faith that tolerance is exalted
above objective truth, then the Muslim moral absolutes, no matter how
flawed, prevail, just as communism once did.
