There Might Just be Hope for the Future

Is the war really over? Today The Detroit News reported that the rise of Radical Islam is declining and there is less support for Radical Islam in many of the Muslim and Arab countries.
“In April, Indonesian Islamist parties that had emerged four years earlier to capture 39 percent of the vote lost ground in parliamentary elections this time around, falling to below 30 percent. "You can't pray away a bad economy, unemployment, poverty and crime," one voter, a 45-year old shop assistant, told Agence France Press.” “Then in May came parliamentary elections in Kuwait, where women had won the right to vote and hold office in 2005 but had never yet won office. Even though the Islamic Salafi Alliance issued a fatwa against voting for female candidates, four captured seats in parliament. Adding insult to injury for the Islamists, their representation fell from 21 seats to 11. "There is a new mindset here in Kuwait," the al-Jazeera network reported, "and it's definitely going to reverberate across the Gulf region."
There is a similar decline in support from voters in other countries as well, such as Jordan, Pakistan, and Lebanon.  The riots in Iran from the outcome of the presidential election also show the increase in the voters’ awareness of their own rights and their desires for their freedoms. There has also been a change in the Muslim world regarding who supports and justifies terrorist suicide bombings. The decrease in support is definitely a positive development in the fight against Radical Islam; however we must remember that Radical groups are not disappearing.  It is crucial to continue educating people about the dangers of these Radical Islam groups and put a stop to their growth.

Meanwhile things are getting stricter in other Islamic countries as we see the persecution of Christians on the rise in the Islamic world. I wish the Iranians the best but what is happening in Iran is about the rights of Iranians WITHIN Iran. It has nothing to do with their support for Hezbollah, the persecution of Christians there, or the threats to Israel.

Suicide bombers are the least of the problem, it is the advancement of the political aspect of Islam that is the big threat to Western civilization. There is no major "moderate" movement against this threat. The UK is the perfect example of this.

Also Islamist organizations are openly recruiting in America and Islamic preachers of hate have taken it to the streets.

Articles like this only spread false hope, as "moderate" Islam is not coming to the rescue.
It is time to end all Muslim immigration.

These incidents prove that Islam cannot survive in free and open elections. When non-Islamist men and women are allowed to present alternatives to Islam as a political ideology and foundation of government, the human instinct to live freely ultimately triumphs.
