There are some 1.4 or so billion Muslims in the world, the overwhelming majority of which are cultural Muslims. Muslims who are born into Islam, where a great many never go through the process of deciding for themselves if they want to be Muslim. It is not a religion that they choose, it is a belief they inherit. For whatever reason, this great majority of cultural Muslims are Muslims of a sort without fully toeing the line of Islam. The real Muslims are the jihadists, a small minority who lives and dies by the dictates of the Quran and the Sunna, the life examples of Muhammad.

Let’s cut to the chase: “True Muslims” are those who strap explosive vests and detonate themselves in a crowd of what they consider fake or deviant Muslims. They also bomb each other at mosques, funeral processions and marketplaces packed with women and children. All in service to promote true Islam and cleanse Allah’s earth from kefirs as they are repeatedly and emphatically instructed to do in the Quran.

Hence, a true Muslim is someone who actively follows the Quran verbatim and works to transmit this disease to others, while he himself is engaged in horrific acts of mayhem and violence to demonstrate his unconditional obedience to the dictates of Islamic ideology.

There is virtually no chance to reason with the brain-dead jihadists whose eyes are fixed on the promised lush paradise of Allah. It isn’t that they love death, just for the sake of death itself as Muslim leaders such as Hasan Nasrallah, the head of Lebanon’s Hezbollah proclaimed: “we love death more than you love life.”

They love death and happily embrace it because of what they have been brainwashed to believe is awaiting them as a reward. Death in carrying out the work of Islam earns them entry into Allah’s eternal sensuous male paradise, so they believe. It is in keeping with propagating this fraud of afterlife paradise that portraits and names of Muslim killers, glorified as martyrs, which festoon the length and breadth of Muslim cradles of Islamism such as Iran and Saudi Arabia. To the wild-eyed robot jihadist even a day on this “heap of dirt” earth is simply another day of unbearable delay from winging their way to the lasting abode of lust.

Tragically, over the years, media pundits, leftist academics, and politicians have constructed a formidable alliance that successfully keeps both cultural Muslims as well as the non-Muslim general public in a slumber of complacency. All along, the campaign of the jihadists have been moving forward. On the one hand are the well-financed Islamists with their hordes of simpletons who are ready to die for the cause. The horrific acts of these villains are daily occurrences in places such as Iraq, Afghanistan, Darfur, and Pakistan. On the other hand, are the people of the free world who are lulled into the complacency they seek and lack the will to confront the deadly danger of real Islam.

Cultural Muslims hold the balance of power in their hands. They are not active jihadists. Yet, they knowingly or unknowingly, constitute the most vital support for Islamists. It is this majority that projects an image of normalcy and even tolerance of others while supplying funds as well as foot-soldiers to the work of Islamists.

Islamic apologists often point to Muslim communities in non-Muslim lands as peaceful religious communities like any other and deny that these Muslims pose any threat to the way of life of free people. Yet, the facts convincingly argue against this fraudulent contention because, when jihadists gather enough local strength, cultural Muslims like docile sheep will submit to the rule of their co-religionist killers.

This is not a hypothetical prognostication. The capitulation of cultural Muslims has already played out in many parts of European towns and cities. It is worth repeating that as Islamists wage their war under the banner of Islam, they receive immense direct and indirect support from the rank-and-file of cultural Muslims. Their support is the life-blood that keeps Islamists alive.

Extreme Islam claims to be the true Islam and strives to force humanity into submission to a system of beliefs and practices of Sharia which are anathema to freedom. Even Muslims who do not agree with extremist Islam are intimidated, pressured into silence, and even condemned to death by fanatics. It is wishful thinking on the part of the non-Muslims to believe that one can be a Muslim moderate, given that Islam is radical at its very core. To be a moderate Muslim demands that the person explicitly renounce much of the violent, exclusionary, and radical teachings of the Quran.

By so doing, the individual issues his own death warrant in Islamic countries, is condemned as apostate if he lives in a non-Islamic land, and may even earn a fatwa on his head. Yet, if the masses of the cultural Muslims, in ones, twos, and droves leave Islam, the Islamists will be eviscerated since cultural Muslims are indeed their life-blood. It is deadly, in any confrontation, to assess the adversary through one’s own mental template, because the two templates can be vastly different from each other.

In short, America is unable to win the war against Islamic terrorism because U.S. officials refuse to call the enemy by its real name. The enemy is none other than Islam.
