Islam is more than a religion - its a complete cultural, political, religious, socio-economic system. It is totalitarian and it is suppressive/repressive in nature. Also, modern Islam has undeniable historical links to Hitler and the fascism of the mid-20th century. There are two sides to this coin - the fascism of the modern Nazis, and the fascism of Islam (essentially a power struggle much like that between the National Socialists and the Communists of 1930’s Germany). If people feel threatened, they will side with the group who will protect them from what they fear the most: the side of the coin that is most alien. Its important to offer an alternative to both sides of that coin. But right now current political powers are bowing down to fascist Islam either out of fear or out of a false sense of political correctness. And that well may will drive the average person into the arms of the Nazis. Just being against the modern Nazi isn’t going to cut it. We must offer a strong argument for the Western way of life - and we have to defend it from a position of strength. Either that, or join Bonhoffer on the gallows.
