And
- war against terrorism? That's as if one is saying: "war against tanks". "War against air planes." But these are just the tools of war you fight with. WWII was fought against fascism. The enemy
you fight against now is the one with the beliefs from the 7th century. If anyone still believes terrorism and the fight against it has nothing to do with religion and culture, then he is totally wrong. It is a
clash of civilisations, and at least as much also a
clash of ages 1500 years apart. It's about high time that we in the West finally -
finally - get to realise that.
In the supermarket this afternoon, I overheared a talk between two men, who were buying the same political magazine. They mentioned that everything today (meaning the war in the ME, and the growing tensions between Islam and the West in general) would be much better if only we would apologise to Islam that after 9/11 some of us -
so very few of us - dared to point fingers at it and put it under suspicion. such stupidity leaves me speechless. I makes me wanting to grab a heavy stick and wanting to beat some reason into people who obviously only carry braindead corpses through their lives. One could despair about such people and such a massive amount of naivety.
