Gates of Vienna: Empire and Apocalypse
The Gates of Vienna blog has posted several thought provoking articles recently on how to consider radical Islam and Islam in general.
One thought that repeats itself to me when I’m reading posts like this is how the upside down thinking of the Left in the US and Western Europe can get. They hate the US for what they consider our imperialistic goals (ignoring that we’re the one country in the world that has invaded many places and occupies as an empire NONE of them). At the same time, they are sympathetic to the aspirations of the Islamic Fascists, who propose not only an ideology that undercuts all the individual right the Lefties love, but actually want an elistist empire run by muslim clerics. To quote Dymphna from Gates of Vienna,
Conjecture 3 states that the current "war on terror" is the last chance to avoid catastrophic war with people who can only be stopped by being killed.
Quite a chilling post.
