A preventative peace for a postponed war (March 2003)
The demonstrations for peace “with no ifs or buts” represent Europe’s preventative surrender to Islam: a contemptible unconditional capitulation, a catastrophe of historic proportions that will have fatal consequences. Some of us have been predicting this fate since 1979, since Komeini’s return to Iran. After September 11th we had the illusion that the world finally understood the danger. Instead, all it understood was its fear of the few (the USA, Great Britain, and Israel) that are unwilling to yield to barbarianism.
A preventative war? It’s a strange name for this war about which much is said but little until recently had been done. A more appropriate name would be a postponed war. At the end of the Gulf War in 1991, a cease-fire was agreed upon between the United Nations and Saddam Hussein in exchange for the destruction of his entire arsenal within 15 days. Twelve years and sixteen resolutions later action was still delayed, deferred, postponed, put off. More than Saddam Hussein, it seems like the United Nations are the ones who are reluctant to respect their own resolutions. When the pacifists of the world finally awake under the Islamic law of Sharia, it will already be too late.
