Like it or not, Western Civilization is already in a war with the forces of Radical Islam. A religious war? Yes, but if that makes you uncomfortable you may call it whatever you like. But it's time to face facts.
This cartoon mess is only one more indication of the seriousness of the conflict we face. If you believe in Freedom of the Press, Free Speech, and the basic human rights of western democracy, please do not make excuses and/or attempt to appease the barbarians who have threatened beheadings and torched an embassy over cartoons. Had he not been shot and practically decapitated on an Amsterdam street by an "offended" Muslim, Dutch film maker Theo van Gogh would tell you that these threats must be taken seriously. When you see the Muhammad cartoon protestors carrying signs that proclaim "Free Speech can GO TO HELL!," stop for one minute to consider the implications.
The cartoon uproar is just one more wake up call for the West.
