Going to Extremes Against Extremists:
Italy Leads the Way
According to a recent editorial by Grant Swank of FaithFreedom.org, "Nations that stand for liberties personal will have to rid their geographies of Muslim murderers global...."
Swank uses the example of Italy, which recently began jailing known extremists in preparation for expulsion. Using growing amounts of information that Islam is (or has become) "not so much a world religion among religions but a killing cult," he recommends that others follow Italy's lead.
He cites recent quotes from British PM Tony Blair and US President George W. Bush to claim that the political perspective may be changing among other Western nations. Noting a shift away from sweeping claims that Islam is a religion of peace, Swank says, "Christian theologians all the while knew quite differently; but it took awhile for the politicians to wake up to the truth."
Maybe someone's been reading one of the "peace … no peace" passages to our elected officials. ¶ 21:15 |
