#3 The problem is that only Islam provides its adherents with enough belief in a glorious future (combined with a terrible enough present) to give them the WILL to engage in interminable war. In the West we have no FAITH in the future and the communists no longer have a sucky enough present to make massive and sustained sacrifice. Not only that, we (the West) are so perversely guilt-ridden we don't even have the WILL to "To crush your enemies, see them driven before you, and to hear the lamentation of their women." |
