#6  Satans perfect "solution"

#5  In the food chain - Islam will kill liberalism in the same way that a parasite kills its host; it sucks the blood out of it. Liberalism won't beat Islam, it will join it - either by being intimidated into dhimmi status or by converting. The only real question is whether or not those of us who aren't imagining that their is nothing to kill or die for will wrest control of our government and demand that we fight to maintain our freedoms.

#4  Confluence of purpose.

Both socialism and Islamicism hope to topple the West (sorry, socialists, but your ideology is NOT truly a Western one) and feed, vulture-like on the corpse of our civilization. As long as their actions are synergistic towards this goal, there is an unwary truce. This isn't a conspiracy, but rather a marriage of convenience.

But each believes that when the West falls they will be able to subdue the other and have the corpse all to themself.

#3  While I comment on this at my website, I should point out that the author sounds a bit whiny: He conflates leftists and communists with those actually calling for reforms in the Middle east, angling for some indirect, and undeserved, glory for the former. Look for this as a set-up to say: SEE! The West created Islamic terrorism!

When I'm fighting a bear or a tiger, I'll be happy for the help of a wolf to take the immediate threat down, but only in fairy tales would the wolf, after the battle, act like a true friend.

#1  This is much simpler than it would appear. Socialism purports to be an alternative economic system. Islam a religous system. Both agree that a population needs submission for these systems to thrive. Therefor Socialism is being brought into ISLAM as the rational economic system for a Religion that has no economics. The two systems accomodate one another in an alliance of convenience. The result is subversion of the population to the carved up loot that will be shared by the mullahs and the communist leadership.

Islam is the perfect match for socialism, because each allows a elitist group of the few to enjoy the largess of hegemony over the many.

There is no mystery about these two, they are two sides of the same coin.
