Our failure to learn the lessons of the 9/11 terror attacks
The most important lesson which I learned in the aftermath of the plane attacks upon America on the 11th of September 2001 was the irrefutable confirmation of the irredeemably evil nature of the so called religion of Islam.
The simple fact that these unbelievable acts of
barbarity did not lead to a mass exodus of Muslims from support for their medieval
religious beliefs convinced me that, unless we were prepared to acknowledge the
true causes of Islamic terrorism we would inevitably face ever more attacks and
ever
greater erosion of our ability to defend our culture and civilisation from the
insidious growth of Islamic ideology throughout the western world.
So it has proven to be. As Islamic immigration
into the USA and Europe has steadily increased so too have the number of
Islamic terrorist attacks. This was
entirely predictable, since almost all western leaders failed to identify the
fact that the causes of Islamic fundamentalism are the fundamentals of Islam
and instead of dealing with the real causes of terrorism they tried to cover
their own incompetence and cowardice by asserting that the attacks upon
innocent victims had nothing to do with Islam.
Unfortunately, the blindingly obvious truth was
that such attacks had everything to do with Islam and politicians and media commentator’s
attempts to pretend otherwise, put our security and safety in ever greater
peril.
Tragically for the future of western
civilisation our political leaders have still not acknowledged the true causes
of Islamic terrorism, nor have they made any attempt to lessen the threat to us
all by limiting the influx of religiouly motivated fanatics into our society, or by minimising the influence
of Islam throughout the civilised world. This failure, will I predict, lead to
an ever increasing influence and involvement of Islamic beliefs and culture
into western societies, until the time comes when Islam is unstoppable and we
are all forced to live under Sharia law in an Islamic caliphate. This will be
a very tragic and ignominious end for the values of The Enlightenment and all attributable
to our own appeasement, stupidity and cowardice.
