The reality is that western values are in direct contradiction with Islam.

“We need our national leaders to reengage on the 9/11 issue,” ….“The threat
that the United States faces is ever more real and it needs a national
focus on fighting an ideology that is at complete odds with American
Liberty. President Obama and Governor Romney need to be advocating
for a Liberty Doctrine in the Middle East so that we can eventually have
an impact on the breeding ground of hatred against our country.”
[..]
“The lesson from the attacks of 9/11 is that the U.S. has to enter the
ideological battle against our enemies,” …. “We can no longer
idly sit by and allow the secular fascists and the theocrats to destroy
movements for liberty. If we can become champions for liberty in the
Middle East, we can begin to inoculate the people of the region to the
supremacist mindset that creates the ideological underpinnings of
Islamist inspired terrorism.”
~~ Dr. Zuhdi Jasser, author of, A Battle for the Soul of Islam.


The reality is that western values are in direct contradiction with Islam (radical or moderate is only in the western mind) and we are really at war culturally with this Islamic 6th century mindset, but no one wants to admit it.
