Terror Networks

We should not tolerate the preachers of jihad

2006-08-13

By Richard Perle

Omar Sheikh was a promising LSE student from a comfortably middle-class Anglo-Pakistani family. On a humanitarian mission to Bosnia in 1992, he was recruited into a life of terror. In July 2002, he was sentenced to death in Pakistan for his role in the beheading of an American journalist, Daniel Pearl.

In his book Who Killed Daniel Pearl?, Bernard-Henri Levy recounts young Omar's reaction to the suggestion that he go to Afghanistan for training. He imagines him thinking "he has to finish his studies and his father is still the one who decides everything."

#3 Muslims are waging a global war against us, while Western leaders still think they can integrate them both domestically, and in some universal global system. The New Thinking that was supposed to follow 9-11, did not arise.

However, now that the President says we are fighting "Islamofascism," he might come to realize that the tideology of Islam, is a terror drug.

#1 All over the US, Christian pastors are under attack from the government and special interest groups for even suggesting political ideas or endorsing political candidates. My pastor was investigated by the IRS because he encouraged his congregation to go out and vote. Not for a particular candidate mind you; just to exercise our constitutional duty to go out and vote.

Yet many Mosques and their followers are free to spew hatred and threats of violence toward anyone who disagrees with them, and in particular, the US government. What's wrong with this picture? Time for America to wake up.
