#3  There's just no logic to that kind of cowardice.

Cowardice knows no logic. It s an emotional state.

I agree that there is a degre of that in our western societies. But not all of the patterns can be attributed as such. Many factors in play... for instance ignorance, or sheer inability to project trends, because the base you can build them on has been, shrunk or removed in the past 30 or so years.

It is rather ironic that our inability to deal with the problem as society at large, in rational ways, will be much more costly in the long run. People don't feel affected by it yet, it does not burn them so they don't feel like it should be them dealing with the fire that is yet somewhere in the distance--maybe it will pass them by, they think.

One hopes that they'll wake up before there would be no escape.

#2  I see the general population is coming around to the debate roughly described as WHAT DO WE DO WITH THESE MUSLIMS ?
Some here would bury them all. (me too)
Some would deport them all. (costs too much)
Some would isolate and remove radical imams.
Whatever, I hope in the end, we demand Islam either change or be erradicated by genocide. I can't feature passing this cancer on to other generations. There's just no logic to that kind of cowardice. And yes, not dealing with the problem is cowardice.

#1  If this involved clustering of fascist white supremacists forming 'militias', how many inches of column space on page one or how many minutes of daily evening news would be consumed in the media sharkfest?
