§ Stealth jihad is well advanced in the
U.S., with the entire American left enabling and aiding the expansion of Muslim
political power, without realizing or caring that they are supporting a
radically intolerant and supremacist ideology.
§ We see in particular [in Europe] the
increase of churches being bought and transformed into mosques. Muslims in
general prefer this to building new buildings: the transformation of a church
into a mosque is for them a visible manifestation of Islam's victory,
superiority over Christianity, and coming hegemony.
§ Hundreds of years of jihad attacks
weakened and ultimately destroyed the Roman Empire in Constantinople. The
failure to get help from the West... played a large role in Constantinople's
ultimate fall, as well as disunity among the leaders of the empire itself. Some
were even short-sighted and self-serving enough to seek and obtain help from
Muslim forces.
§ The U.S. faces a similar threat from
short-sighted and self-serving leaders of our own. The Democrats are busy
encouraging the growth of Muslim political power, while insisting on ignoring
the political, supremacist, expansionist and violent aspects of Sharia. Few
politicians are aware of the nature and magnitude of the threat, or are
resolved to do anything about it. If this continues, we will eventually face
our own May 29, 1453 -- the fall of Constantinople ....
§ [P]robably all religions are affected,
even though there are some notable individuals who have not been afraid to
speak out -- or prevented from doing so.
