ABSTRACT

During a visit to the United States, the charismatic leader of the Dutch nationalists, Geert Wilders, was asked how he would compare the advancement of radical Islam in Europe and the United States. He pointed to the clock and said that if the European clock shows midnight sharp, the reading on the American clock is quarter to midnight. The denial of the Islamo-totalitarian danger and the fear of using the very name of the enemy begin with the highest level of the American government. The Cairo speech by President Obama is one of the best examples of the confusion and lack of preparedness on the part of not just the current administration but also of a large number of Americans to face the reality of an impending life-and-death confrontation with radical Islam. The radical Islamists are in the habit of constantly repeating that their jihad against Western civilization is the realization of the main goal of the Muslim religion.
