| Failure to recognise the true nature of the threat is already the doom of Europe. Political correctness and an inability to understand the vast and devastating differences between enlightment and medeval thought. Iran is a shining example of what Islam intends. It IS the embodiment of what the religion calls for. Throughout the history of mankind people in all cultures have continuously displayed an alarming trait to never think the worst and recognise the atrocities at their door step until it is too late. As late as June of 1943 Marshall and Roosevelt listened to tales of the Nazi death camps and called these refugees liars and refused point blank to give them any credence. At this juncture in time we have an opportunity to change that but it seems the politically correct and the politically expedient will rule the day... again.
