This is by far the best explanation of the current Muslim terrorist
situation I have ever read. His references to past history are accurate and
clear. Not long, easy to understand, and well worth the read. The author of

A German's View on Islam
A man, whose family were German aristocracy prior to World War II, owned a
number of large industries and estates. When asked how many German
people were true Nazis, the answer he gave can guide our attitude toward
fanaticism.
"Very few people were true Nazis," he said, "but many enjoyed the return
of German pride, and many more were too busy to care. I was one of those
who just thought the Nazis were a bunch of fools. So, the majority just sat
back and let it all happen."
"Then, before we knew it, they owned us, and we had lost control, and the
end of the world had come My family lost everything. I ended up in a
concentration camp and the Allies destroyed my factories."
We are told again and again by 'experts' and 'talking heads' that Islam
is the religion of peace, and that the vast majority of Muslims just want to
live in peace. Although this unqualified assertion may be true, it is
entirely irrelevant.
It is meaningless fluff, meant to make us feel better, and meant to
somehow diminish the spectra of fanatics rampaging across the globe in the name
of Islam.
The fact is that the fanatics rule Islam at this moment in history. It is
the fanatics who march. It is the fanatics who wage any one of 50
shooting wars worldwide. It is the fanatics who systematically slaughter
Christian or tribal groups throughout Africa and are gradually taking over the
entire continent in an Islamic wave.
It is the fanatics who bomb, behead,
murder or honor-kill. It is the fanatics who take over mosque after mosque.
It is the fanatics who zealously spread the stoning and hanging of rape
victims and homosexuals. It is the fanatics who teach their young to kill
and to become suicide bombers.
The hard quantifiable fact is that the peaceful majority, the 'silent
majority', is cowed and extraneous.
Communist Russia was comprised of Russians who just wanted to live in
peace, yet the Russian Communists were responsible for the murder of about 20
million people. The peaceful majority were irrelevant.
China's huge population was peaceful as well, but Chinese Communists
managed to kill a staggering 70 million people.
The average Japanese individual prior to World War II was not a war
mongering sadist. Yet, Japan murdered and slaughtered its way across South East
Asia in an orgy of killing that included the systematic murder of 12
million Chinese civilians, most killed by sword, shovel, and bayonet.
And who can forget Rwanda , which collapsed into butchery. Could it not
be said that the majority of Rwandans were 'peace loving'?
History lessons are often incredibly simple and blunt, yet for all our
powers of reason we often miss the most basic and uncomplicated of points:
Peace-loving Muslims have been made irrelevant by their silence.
Peace-loving Muslims will become our enemy if they don't speak up, because like my
friend from Germany , they will awaken one day and find that the fanatics own
them, and the end of their world will have begun.
Peace-loving Germans, Japanese, Chinese, Russians, Rwandans, Serbs,
Afghans, Iraqis, Palestinians, Somalis, Nigerians, Algerians and many others have
died because the peaceful majority did not speak up until it was too late.
As for us who watch it all unfold, we must pay attention to the only group
that counts: the fanatics who threaten our way of life.
Lastly, anyone who doubts that the issue is serious and just disregard this
alert without sending it on is contributing to the passiveness that allows
the problems to expand.. So, extend yourself a bit and send this on and
on and on! Let us hope that thousands, world wide, read this and think
about it, and send it on before it's too late.
