When A Picture's Worth A Thousand Words: Would You Buy Ice Cream From This Man?
Topics: Understanding IslamThe preservation of our existing order can no longer be taken for granted; it needs to be fought for. - Daniel Pipes
Just another 'ice cream' truck driver? Is one of his friends coming to a neighborhood near you to do you harm? Maybe your child's school, your local church, perhaps your favorite restaurant or coffee shop, or maybe your favorite mall - all potential targets of Islamists that are 'making nice' and 'fitting in'.

Racial profiling?
Perhaps.
Are all Muslims planning to kill us?
No.
How do we no which ones are and which ones aren't?
We don't, and that's the problem!
As California Conservative notes: "While Michelle Malkin and others have debated the issue of racial profiling, it's not something we want to get in to here -- at least, not now. But let's confess one thing: This guy driving an ice cream truck in Lodi, CA will look just as suspicious as Donny Osmond working a falafel stand in Baghdad."
However, I have no problem with the issue of racial profiling. We have to start somewhere and we can't pretend there isn't a problem with Islamists. We can't pretend that they aren't coming to kill us and to attempt to Islamicize America.
I've previously written of what Daniel Pipes has to say about what we must do.
"That a significant movement in this country aspires to erode its
bedrock social and legal arrangements, including the separation of
church and state, and has even developed a roadmap toward that end,
poses a unique dilemma, especially at this moment. Every responsible
public official, and every American of good faith, is bent on drawing a
broad distinction between terrorists operating in the name of Islam and
ordinary Muslim "moms and dads." It is a true and valid distinction,
but it goes much too far, and if adhered to as a guideline for policy
it will cripple the effort that must be undertaken to preserve our
institutions.
What such an effort would look like is a subject unto itself, but at a
minimum it would have to entail the vigilant application of social and
political pressure to ensure that Islam is not accorded special status
of any kind in this country, the active recruitment of moderate Muslims
in the fight against Islamic extremism, a keener monitoring of Muslim
organizations with documented links to Islamist activity, including the
support of terrorism, and the immediate reform of immigration
procedures to prevent a further influx of visitors or residents with
any hint of Islamist ideology. Wherever that seditious and totalitarian
ideology has gained a foothold in the world, it has wrought havoc, and
some societies it has brought to their knees. The preservation of our
existing order can no longer be taken for granted; it needs to be
fought for."
As I've said previously , several times, and will keep saying until everyone begins to pay attention - the Islamists have a determined agenda to destroy American and European freedoms as we now know them, and to make you Muslims or submit to the Islamic authority. The California and New York cases are just the tip of the iceberg, as are the problems we've already seen in Europe.
So while we sleep, sleeper cells aren't even yawning, they're planning and just waiting for an opportunity to strike. From hospital-based terror plots to school lunches , an office building, an airport, or a shopping center, it's all fodder for jihadis.
As for a flavor of Islamists agenda for America, you need go no further than the Islamist's favorite group, CAIR, whose board member, Imam Siraj Wahaj calls for replacing the American government with a caliphate, and warns that America will crumble unless it "accepts the Islamic agenda."
Are you listening yet? You might be, but our politicians and the liberal MSM aren't - yet. But sooner or later, the day might come that they will listen, they will hear, and they will know that they just might have waited too long.
All of us must work to see that we stop this Islamic madness, together, before that happens.
And if there really are 'moderate' Muslims, it's long past time for them to have found their voice!
