The Dhimmitude Of Germany's Politicians ... A Forecast For America?

This article here from Family Security Matters really does a nice job of laying out how hand's off the German government has become with even convicted islamic terrorists on its own soil, not to mention how they have totally ignored the evil preachings going on in the mosques across Germany. I've excerpted a number of pieces of the article but you really should read the whole thing.

What has become apparent in Germany is that the government and security officials are going out of their way to avoid any type of sweeping criticism of Islam in general...this of course is out of fear of reprisal. So, when we witness this, do we see the same fate for America? Do we all stick our heads in the sand and point a finger only at a "few" radicals and blame it only on them or do we call a spade a spade and reveal that it is the Qur'an that calls for the bloodshed, the submission and the destruction of infidels? Do we give a free pass to imams in mosques to preach hatred and target the lives of Christians and Jews? America will find its fate following that of the Europeans if we do not simply call out Islam for what it is: a violent political ideology that seeks the submission of the entire world to its philosophy and if it doesn't get that, it will violently destroy all those who do not convert or submit. Say it like it is, America...while we have the chance.

Exclusive: Germany Avoids Criticizing Radical Islam and Radical Muslims

The German media and some German public figures are soft, too soft, on radical Islam and avoid critics and critique of this violent “religion.” The audio-visual media invite only uncritical talking heads. The print media publish only articles by apologists of Islam. Here are some examples:

The recent confession of the four Muslim terrorists, also called the “Suaerland Group,” who were planning to kill as many Americans in Germany as they could, was hailed by the judge, state prosecutor, and the media. The devastating terrorist attack prepared by these men was foiled from a tip by the CIA, which the German media depict as not abiding by the law and acting against human rights.

To add insult to injury, Cohn-Bendit said the maiming and killing of innocent people “has nothing to do with Islam.” And radical Muslims are fighting a justice war against their oppressors. He also argued that foreign troops must leave Afghanistan and Iraq and “leave the people of these nations in peace.”

Cohn-Bendit’s “arguments” about Islam is merely wishful thinking. Radical Muslims strongly believe that the Koran – which includes numerous passages that are diametrically opposed to modern human rights – is the “word of Allah.” They are also convinced that Sharia, which primarily includes the Koran, must be introduced everywhere. Appeasing radical Muslims implies ultimately accepting their Sharia. And “modernizing Islam will eventually lead to scraping the Koran or reducing it to a few pages, something which radical Muslims vehemently refuse.

Almost every month, I tour all of those mosques run by Arab imams, all over Germany whose language I understand. In every one of these mosques, the imam preaches hatred and violence against non-Muslims. Germany and the Germans are depicted as “decadent and steered by the devil.” At the end, the imam demands loudly the introduction of Sharia, “It is the law of Allah, and the best on earth.” Muslim women are urged to wear the hijab (headscarf). They are also urged to follow the advice/orders of their men as the Koran and Hadith prescribe.

However, the most atrocious parts of imams’ preaches is their incitement to hatred and violence against the Jews and Christians. All of this is ignored and tolerated by German authorities as part of free speech and religious freedom. Israel is depicted as the “aggressor” and the Palestinians as the victims. Critique of Islam is presented as “Islamophobia.”
