   The Sleeping World Is Awakening To The Dangers Of Islam   
   By Barbara J. Stock   
      
   This past week, I have received many responses from Muslims concerning   
   my two most recent columns: ''Followers of Islam: Can You See the   
   Blood on Your Hands'' and ''Here Comes the Arab/Muslim Outrage.''   
      
   In one breath, some of the writers would call themselves   
   ''intellectuals'' and then accuse me of being a Jew when I put tough   
   questions to them that they could not answer. They maintained that as   
   an American, I just was not intelligent enough to understand Islam.   
   The mistake these ''intellectuals'' made is believing that I have any   
   intention of ''understanding'' Islam.   
      
   It has taken me since 9/11 to realize that civilized humans cannot   
   understand Islam. I am just overjoyed and somewhat relieved that the   
   world is finally waking up in time to see the rabid dog coming its way   
   disguised as Islam.   
      
   If Bin Laden has done one good thing in his wretched life, it was to   
   poke a stick in the eye of the world by bringing his radical beliefs   
   forward and urging his followers to commit violent acts. It has taken   
   some time for people to begin taking a look at Muslims in their own   
   areas, but it is happening. The French and the English are beginning   
   to ask themselves, ''When did this happen? When did 6 million Muslims   
   get here and what are they planning to do?''   
      
   Approximately 33% of the world is Christian and 20% is Muslim, based   
   on figures for the year 2000. The number of Muslims is growing at an   
   alarming rate. Muslims immigrated to peaceful, mostly Christian   
   countries in Europe where they had large families that were reasonably   
   safe from the ravages of their own strict religious teachings. At   
   least these Muslims were safe until the radical element migrated from   
   the oppressive Middle Eastern countries and began exerting its power   
   over the masses and started menacing the indigenous populations that   
   took Muslims in and welcomed them over the years. The mind-control of   
   the clerics over the average Muslim is frightening and total.   
      
   This problem is most notable in the smaller European countries such as   
   the Netherlands and Sweden, where a backlash against Islam is growing   
   because of the strict Islamic laws forbidding mingling with the   
   non-Muslim citizens of a country. In short, Muslims do not fit in.   
   They are not allowed to fit in. The religious leaders lose their total   
   control of the people if those people are allowed to see and   
   experience the freedom that others enjoy. This is why Islam loathes   
   democracy. Democracy steals the power of the Islamic leaders. It gives   
   the people the right to think for themselves and thinking people might   
   start to question their laws. Free people will question the absolute   
   authority and power of the Islamic leaders over every aspect of their   
   lives from birth to often violent death.   
      
   These days, it seems that anyone who speaks out against Islam runs the   
   risk of being murdered, as in the case of filmmaker Theo Van Gogh who   
   was shot, stabbed, and then had his throat slit by a radical Muslim in   
   the Netherlands. Van Gogh had made documentaries exposing the   
   brutality directed at women under Islam. Now, mosques and Muslim   
   schools have been burned and the normally peaceful Dutch are   
   considering closing their borders at the very least and perhaps even   
   expelling Muslims from their country. As one Dutch citizen said on a   
   blog, ''This country is a free country but we can’t even speak anymore   
   without wondering if some Muslim will murder us.'' The hate and unrest   
   towards the followers of Islam is growing. It is just a rumble now,   
   but it will get louder as the killing and bombing continues across   
   Europe.   
      
   A recent report on Fox News showed the hostility growing between the   
   Swedes and their Muslim population. There are Muslim areas where   
   firefighters and emergency personnel will not enter without a police   
   escort because they will be attacked. Firefighters attempting to put   
   out a fire in a mosque were stoned. The anger between these two forces   
   in Sweden is growing and the most liberal country in Europe is   
   contemplating the same action as the Netherlands. It seems Muslims   
   feel their neighborhoods are not a part of Sweden anymore but theirs,   
   to do with as they see fit. The Swedish government does not see it   
   that way. In those pockets of Islamic rule, poverty is common,   
   unemployment is high, and the clerics foment hate and point fingers of   
   blame on the evil West for Muslims' lot in life.   
      
   In France, which has the largest Muslim population in Europe, Islamic   
   clerics openly troll the streets seeking restless young men to   
   indoctrinate and send out to kill for Islam. They weed out the   
   weaklings by having them view videos of the actual torture and   
   beheadings of human beings complete with the screams of pain and all   
   blood and gore of a nightmare. They watch Islamic ''snuff films.''   
   This is what will be expected of them as ''warriors'' of Allah.   
      
   Here in the United States we have a different set of problems. America   
   is just too large for Islam to overpower by reproduction. It has also   
   been impossible to isolate its followers from the American population   
   and American Muslims are far less likely to follow the path of death   
   and destruction. Here, they take a different tact.   
      
   Radical Islam is rampant in the prisons, converting the worst of the   
   worst so that when they leave prison they are unleashed on society as   
   pre-programmed, radical Islamic killing machines. On the outside they   
   appear as average Americans which allow them to move about the country   
   unencumbered and overlooked. These killing machines wait for their   
   orders to kill and terrorize, cared for and protected by the radical   
   Islamic element within our own borders.   
      
   Muslims live in the past where they had their glory days of conquest   
   and power. They often refer to the Crusades, which ended around 1300,   
   as if they happened last year. I am constantly reminded of Wounded   
   Knee and American slavery. Wounded Knee took place in 1890 and slavery   
   ended in the 1860s.   
      
   Muslim writers love to point out the Spanish Inquisition, which was an   
   over-reaction to the conquests of Islam in Spain and was just as much   
   political as religious. The Inquisition officially ended in 1834. What   
   they fail to mention is that it was not only Muslims that were   
   persecuted, but Jews and Protestants as well. Muslims always see   
   themselves as the only victims of injustice in the world. Muslims also   
   fail to mention that the Pope tried to intervene and stop the   
   Inquisition but was unable to exert his power on the political   
   machine.   
      
   We Catholics look at this period in our history with shame, not pride.   
   Belief in God or Jesus cannot be forced on someone; it must come from
