“The Problem of Islam in a Multicultural Society” | Brian Wimborne


Not surprising I guess, since it's been an issue for the west for fourteen centuries. It's going to keep bubbling up. As it does now in the wake of Gaza.

The above essay covers so much that I've written about over the years. The problems of Islam in a modern society. That is, the two — Islam and modernity — don't mix. A radical, aggressive, sectarian, political-ideology (Islam) is not compatible with a tolerant, secular, liberal-democratic society. Sadly, the one that gives, the one that surrenders, so far, is the latter. 

We have to get over the fear of being called racist for wanting to resist tyrannical theocracy in our own home country.
