Ex-Mossad Chief: 'Global civilization is on the verge of "World War III'
Topics: Understanding IslamMeir Amit, a former director of Israel's Mossad intelligence agency and one of the most esteemed figures in the international defense establishment says that global civilization is on the verge of "World War III," a massive conflict in which the Islamic world will attempt to impose its ideology on Western nations. He warns that Islamic nations and global Islamist groups will continue launching "all kinds of attacks" against Western states. He is urging the international community to immediately unite and coordinate a strategy to fight against the "Islamic war."
I believe that Amit is merely stating the obvious - but is lacking one important caveat. The threat is from "Islamic nations and Islamist groups", not Muslims in general.
I'm not being politically correct here, just stating a fact - there are many moderate secular Muslims in the West that loathe the Islamists (read Muslim fundamentalists) and do not support their agenda. With this caveat in place, the world should be paying very close attention to Amit's warning.
Truly moderate Muslims should heed the warning as well, even though it's coming from one of the "evil Jooooooz"!
Interesting and important reading: Amir Taheri in Hijacking Islam, on how this neo-Islam -- a political movement masquerading as religion -- came into being, and how those who know little about Islam distinguish it from the mainstream of the faith. He describes a "NEO-ISLAM" that pursues its culture of apartheid by dividing the world into "Islam" and "un-Islam."
